What about it? It also lacks sdcard support and is fixed at 128/256gb storage options.
My bad. I rechecked and I was browsing by tags. The latest release was in April 2024.
I’m using firefox from playstore and its been fine for the most part. Perhaps try Firefox from playstore to see if it works any differently for you.
Anyone else feel the pain of trying to get a decent upper midrange smartphone which either has 12GB of ram, sdcard support and/or internal storage higher than 256GB in a decent price?
Many OEMs like nothing which I would’ve considered are obsessed with 128GB - 256GB of fixed internal storage.
If you can’t provide a 512GB -1TB option in decent price range. Add support for sdcard storage. It can’t be that hard to do so.
The chinese version would lack Google Play services. Your standard android apps could break. Sideloading play services could be an option. But, I’m not sure if it is seamless and without quirks here.
Being a chinese ROM english translations could also be rough. Research more and make your choice. If the things I mentioned do not matter much. You should be fine.
It is never up-to-date and lags months behind chromium releases. As of today. The last update was on Aug 13 2023. April 24 2024. It’s currently Oct 2 2024. I would steer clear if anyone is still using it today. Firefox is much better.
Yeah, samsung has been stagnating for a years now. Chinese manufacteres are bringing silicon carbon batteries and other innovations in the market. But, samsung is pulling an apple on us. I respect the update policy and feature rich software from samsung but we need better.
Faster charging, higher density batteries, higher performance snaldragon 7+ gen processors, etc.
Its not an actual competitor considering you need both a samsung smartphone and the galaxy store app to actually download apps. The discounted apps are limited to samsung smartphones. Meanwhile, those brought on Playstore can be installed on any google play services compatible smartphone.
By downloading apps from 3rd party App stores and websites. If you only download your apps from trusted sources you should be fine.
The recommendations are not the best but good enough. I usually get movie clips, repair clips, some animal clips and some tech ones.
YouTube Headquarters: ^^^^Coming ^^^^Soon
It won’t. Higher midrange redmi phones do not support sdcard. I too am in the same boat for phones. Getting a good flagship grade phone with a good processor, updates support and sdcard support is tough. Samsung comes close but misses the mark by some.
Yeah, $200 is like the price of a fully functioning entry level samsung A15/16 series smartphone which would get 5-6 years of updates! This is ridiculous. Being a niche brand and pulling these stunts is stupid.
TL;DR
Xiaomi has confirmed that the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ will feature the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 SoC, making it the first phone with this chip. This new SoC promises improved performance and efficiency, including running games like Honor of Kings at 120 FPS.
The phone will also come with a large 6,200 mAh battery, though charging speed has been reduced to 90W from 120W in its predecessor. Additionally, the phone will have IP69 certification and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for enhanced durability.
TL;DR
YouTube is increasing subscription prices outside the US, affecting both individual and family plans.
The price hike differs per region, with some seeing changes between 30% to 50%.
If you’re impacted, it makes YouTube Premium more expensive than Spotify Premium and Apple Music.
If they could they would easily be No.1. Their hardware lasts years. But their software, nope…
The warning prompt for dangerous permissions is not fun either.
That was a problem in the old android 10 smartphones on some devices. Most smartphones except from xiaomi can use gestures with 3rd party launchers. Not allowing gestures with other launchers is on xiaomi.
The animations may be buggy and, there may be other bugs. But, it works in other brand smartphones.
8 gen 1 was a 2022 chipset. The reason it’s not being compared to 8 gen 3 is because its not in the same league as the latest 8 gen Snapdragon.
Usually, the reason my phone restarts is due to using virtual RAM and having the phone under memory pressure. Disabling or reducing the virtual RAM made the phone snappy at the cost of increased App reloads. Choose the balance you like. The hardware is not strong enough for multi tasking anyway. Assuming it has RAM plus.
I’m speaking from experience of using galaxy A22 5g which had 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. But, this is still true on my realme smartphone with 12GB of RAM.
It’s old, expensive, and not available anymore. Plus, has the same 128/256 storage issue – atleast the listings I checked in my region.
