Well, well, well. This is most interesting, either the Snapdragon is very good or the Exynos is very bad. Either way, the consumer wins.

Huge if true. Completely agree with you on the less power thing. Looking at the efficiency curve chart by Geekerwan, the Exynos 2400 is worse than the 8 Gen 3 at all power levels. Moreover the modem is crap and heats the phone up too much. Indian temperatures make this worse.

The leaks/rumours show the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 barely 200 points behind the A18 Pro in single-core and comfortably ahead in multi-core. Still Samsung will probably use Exynos to make their devices not *too* enticing! God forbid the Galaxy has every possible advantage! Anecdote- Ten years...

Installed iOS 18. First thing I notice- The padding between UI elements is doubled. Hmm. Open Language and Region, turns out they added हिन्दी to it. Do they think we all speak it? & The control centre is somehow worse. & God, the photos app, it’s so goofy now. Also, if the S24 came with...

Was this always the behaviour? I swear it wasn't during iOS 13...

You just explained how the bad implementation works. There is no reason why it can't be the best of both worlds. You can have the Android way of clean folder based organisation and a continuous camera roll with photos from all sources in it. Which is how it is on Samsungs and OnePluses. It...

Well, well, well, should have known. It is on a daughter board! Apple just wants me to get a new phone! How kind of them! I didn't look into third-party repair as funnily enough, lighting earphones still work! It's just the charging pins that seem to have failed. Wireless charging is working...

I'm glad it works for you, but I have found this to be rather taxing. The iOS way of dropping everything - Downloads, WhatsApp, Twitter, Screenshots, etc all into a single root folder is not great. Keeping the gallery on iOS clean and organised requires too much effort. The way you organise...

Photos.app doesn't have integration with Files.app. That's what I mean by "real file management". Files.app is not a "real file manager" it's a sandboxed pathetic excuse for a file manager. On Android you can go into the file manager of your choice and create new folders and it will show up in...

I am in the same position as well with the SE 2020, it's not the 720p screen or the 4 hour battery life that bothers me. It's the software, the absolutely terrible, albeit pretty looking software. The lack of real file management is a pain. I am personally waiting for the S25 as I feel we are...

@greenhorn That's a very good point that did not occur to me, will use contact cleaner spray next time. Thanks for pointing it out.

Got 5TB Seagate for 6075 last year- Hoping for something like this again. Deal was so good.

Interesting solution, but sadly only applicable to mouses used on a single computer. When my M235 started double-clicking I opened up it's switches and cleaned it with WD40. Problem solved. Hope it lasts a few more years. Seems every Logitech mouses develops this fault within 2-3 years.

I relative came around and I compared the Buds FE to her AirPods Pro. The AirPods Pro are more comfortable to wear and don't hurt your ears if you want to sleep with them in. Now the controls on the Buds FE are fine. I didn't accidentally trigger them while adjusting the buds. The AirPods Pro's...

I have a LG 1 Ton 5 Star window A/C from 2020, in the epic Delhi heatwave last month it gave up completely. Did not cool the room below 28-27 C. Do note the AC is in a 200 Sq.ft room. Can't blame it much to be honest. Now that the temperatures are somewhat decent it's doing a fine job. Daikin...

According to Ritngs.com Buds FE have better microphone quality than Buds 2 Pro, AirPods Pro. https://www.rtings.com/headphones/tools/compare/samsung-galaxy-buds2-pro-true-wireless-vs-samsung-galaxy-buds-fe-truly-wireless/34599/44564?usage=19&threshold=0.10#test_377

I got the M190 a couple of years back when it launched new. It's scroll wheel got busted around the 1.5 year mark. About the M235- I have used a 4-5 of them since 2014. Very comfortable, but it's buttons start having issues around the 2-3 year mark. I usually open the switches up and clean the...

I can attest to this. They are surprisingly good for phone calls, the other party doesn't complain when picking up calls in public. I got it from TATA CliQ for ₹5.5k a week back.

That plasmacluster thing might be emitting ozone. Might be why.
