the only good thing I expect from the SE is usb-c
the only good thing I expect from the SE is usb-c
Athere are downsides to small phones sure. but i tend to use it for phone calls and just before i go to bed, that's about it. if i need a camera i bring my rx100, or anything else i just bring a laptop with me
Ayeah usb-c would be a nice-to-have
Ai mean
Athe new SE will be required to have it but
Aim half convinced apple won't even make a new SE lol
Aapple isn't a good investment but modern android is trash
Awhich is a real shame
Abring back kitkat please
Sidk, I like big phones
Snowadays the progress slowed down so you can use phones for 3 or more years easily without them being shit
Atrue. it's a shame replacing batteries is so awkward nowadays
Sit's been the same for years now
Schinesium phones are better about this because you typically only have to remove the back glass to get to the battery
Son pixels and some samsungs you need to lift the fragile screen
Son the other hand samsung and google sells legit batteries
Sfor something like xiaomi it's impossible to get original parts
YSuper easy, have had one for 6 years now, the model I have can be dismembered (only the internal parts) and each parts cleaned separately.
Sreplacing batteries sucks in general. like I can replace the battery on my thinkpad but there are no original batteries (or they are years old)
Sand replacement batteries always suck
Ayep. had a pixel 4a, after 3 years its battery wasn't so good, couldn't easily replace it so i replaced the whole phone with the piece of e-waste that is the pixel 7a
Awill not be buying another pixel phone
Ait's a brick, it doesn't work properly, i advise that no one buys a modern pixel phone for any reason after this
Ait is complete and utter trash
Aits camera is blurry, it doesn't answer phone calls... yknow quite an important thing for a phone, its display flickers when viewing near-black levels. plus its oled screen is still garbage. pure trash
Ai could go on
SI don't have any of these issues on my p7p
Smaybe 7a is trash
Sor their qc is awful
Acould well be that, most others i've seen with a 7a don't share these problems
Sthere are very few good phones to recommend
Si really dislike samsung bloatware
Ai would have returned it. but i switched to iphone the same week i bought it, so it sat in a drawer for like 2 months. only switched back to it because i paid for it... aaaand that is it
Ayeah samsung is awful
Sfor normal user i guess iOS is fine but the hardware on non pro iphones is meh
S60hz screen makes that iphone 13 feel way slower than my pixel
Seven though the CPU is better
Ai suppose if you get used to higher refresh rate displays then it may seem that way. if you only ever use 60hz it doesn't make any difference
Aalthough displays on modern phones are poor. sure you get higher refresh rates. but they're also OLED. OLED is a great technology. please let it die and bring on micro LED instead. give me IPS any day
S120 screens are extremely cheap nowadays, apple only uses 60Hz to make pro series better
Athey do like to "cheap out" on their non-pro phones so everyone spends the extra on them
SI'm fine with OLEDs, they mostly fixed burn in nowadays
Sbut I also like the mini LED on macbook pro's
Sit's very good
Anot seen a mini led display personally, but would be interested to
Sgo to an applel store and look at macbook pro's
Sprobably the best screen you can get on a laptop right now
Anice
S120hz VRR, 2k dimming zones and 1.6k nit peak brightness
A2k dimming zones, nice.
Sin general case it looks like an oled
