4 months durability for an $800 phone!

My old $200 Motorola G9 Power phone lasted almost 4 years with only very minor scratches. Obviously in that period I have dropped it a few times getting out of the car, where the phone sometimes work itself out of my pant pocket while I drive, and then it slips out when I get out of the car. But no problem on my previous phones,...

Oh, I thought it was so that the phone would feel more premium!

Same here, I should probably start using Pro.

Using Connect. Very simple UI, and works on older phones (Android 5+, while it says 4.4+, it crashes on 4.4).

Just like Nextbit!

I love my Zenfone 10. An amazing package.

FYI: These were the 20 most viewed pages on GSMA’s website at the end of the year. The list also excluded older iPhone models (like the 11, which is half a decade old).

Perfect, just what I need if I set my laptop on my laptop stand the wrong way!

I know I’m 3 days late, but here’s what’s new specifically (copied from my Reddit post):

1:Keyboard looks different

2: The apps don’t really seem to be different from Android 13/ZenUI 10 to Android 14/ZenUI 11 (contrary to the changelog)

3: New back arrow gesture design! (It’s so satisfying! I can play with it for hours!)

4: Flashlight can blink for notifications and ringtones (and the screen can be set to pulse a color for notifications, too!)

5: “Touch sounds” renamed to “Tap and click sounds”

6: New battery chart

7: Color of clock on lock screen can be changed separately from theme

8: Monochrome theme

9: SOT indicator is back!

10: Media player has some slight design tweaks (and new animations)

However, bootloader unlock is still unavailable.

Wanting to make a custom ROM for a phone.

@SGHFan@lemdro.id avatar

I think the Galaxy Tab A8 may be a good option. While I’ve only flashed a custom ROM, there are root guides at XDA.

I unlocked my US variant WiFi A8.

I now have an S6 Lite (keeping on One UI for an experiment)!

The 11 (no Pro model) dropped it.

SGHFan ,
@SGHFan@lemdro.id avatar

Yup, never going back to 1+!

And you can’t get de-crufted Win11 outside Europe! Another win for Plasma!

Oof.

@SGHFan@lemdro.id avatar

I don’t mind the lack of an unlockable bootloader, and I’m a happy customer. I’ve used my Zenfone 10 for about 3 months, will continue to use for at least 5 years.

Linux on a 2in1 for Uni (lemmy.world)

Hello linix@lemmy, I got fixed on the idea of replacing my iPad with a 2in1 like the thibkpad X13 for uni since I use the keyboard with my iPad a lot. The only time I need to take handwritten notes is in chemistry, mathematics and to annotate PDFs. Does anyone here have experience with convertibles running Linux? What would be...

Rocking a Galaxy Book2 360. Can’t adjust keyboard brightness, kernel parameter is needed for OLED backlight, and 3.5mm headphone jack doesn’t work.

I also don’t know what the terminology is. I’m in North Raleigh, and I sometimes go to downtown.

The vanishing of the small high-end smartphone (www.smh.com.au)

Manufacturers don’t make displays under 6 inches available for purchase, with special cases (such as the iPhone Mini) being made under exclusive contracts. The best lead they have so far is to try to use displays designed for the front part of a foldable phone, but they’re yet to strike an agreement....

GNOME, turn off screen backlight dimming?

I mean, the US variant Galaxy Tab bootloaders (WiFi) can be unlocked, not the phones.

SGHFan ,
@SGHFan@lemdro.id avatar

TIL

@SGHFan@lemdro.id avatar

Weird, My Zenfone (NC, US) no longer has the “not supported” message. Is this region now supported? Also, I may turn it on, just in case.

SGHFan ,
@SGHFan@lemdro.id avatar

Oh.

Nah, I use KDE Connect. Works well!

Zenfone 10. Good size, amazing performance, love it. 3.5mm jack!

Ask Lemmy: Traditional vs natural mouse scrolling; which do you use?

Despite being a heavy cell phone user for more than 25 years, it only recently occurred to me that vertical navigation on most phones is inverted when compared to traditional computers. You swipe down to navigate upward, and up to navigate downward. I recently spent time using a MacBook, which apparently defaults to this...

SGHFan ,
@SGHFan@lemdro.id avatar

Natural on mice, traditional on trackpads.

@SGHFan@lemdro.id avatar

Call me weird, I don’t have any.

Very anti right-to-repair. Remember that Google has an iFixit partnership.

GNOME 95 /s

Change my Mind! - I like the linux,but some things keeps me staying on Windows.

Recently, I switched from Windows to Linux, tried many distros, and ended up with the Ubuntu rolling-release. Things went well for some days, but I started facing some issues like printer issues, gaming performance issues, and overall Ubuntu performance issues. So, I switched to where it all started, which is Windows 10. Now...

Get an AMD card. Or maybe try Nobara or Pop OS.

LG initally denied leaving the smartphone business, but they later quit the smartphone business. I wonder if this is happening with Asus?
