Samsung Night Mode is insane!

I just got July update for my Galaxy S9 (Snapdragon Canada), and the night mode is crazy good.

I put it up against Gcam Night Sight (32 sec exposure, Eszdman V2 lib). I was execting an unfair matchup for using long exposure, and boy, I was surprised.

I used a tripod for both, since it was very dark in my basement and my hands are shaky.

Here are the photo sample

What do you guy think?...

Why do many Android enthusiasts vehemently avoid Google services/apps?

I don't use many Google apps simply because there are better featured alternatives, but i don't necessarily avoid them. In some cases, a reasonably better alternative either doesn't exist, or it's functionality is a pain in the ass to set up (for those of us slightly less tech literate). So why are (what seems to be) a large and knowlegeble group of users so willing to sacrifice function?

Note: I posted in r/androidapps and then realized my question had changed a little, so may fit better her...

First things you guys do when you buy a new phone?

Hello people!

I am curious what are the first things you guys do, when you buy a brand new smartphone. Do you do anything special, for example, anything that can help improve the future life of the smartphone?...

A cool feature for future phones would be if there was a setting to make screen tilt detect your eyes orientation instead of the accelerometers.

The thought came to me after getting annoyed whenever I'm relaxing in bed watching YouTube and I turn to my side to get comfy and have to turn off screen tilt or the video exits landscape mode....

Oneplus 7 pro review after 3 months: Near perfect hardware, oxygen OS is really starting to annoy me with its limitations.

Been a while since i've posted here. Note 9 kind of was the ultimate phone for a while for me... I guess until the oneplus 7 pro's 90hz 1440p oled screen did compel me to give it a shot... and overall I think its probably one of the best phones available in the US at msrp and worthwhile for most ppl, yet coming to this from a samsung phone feels oddly lacking... which would be the reverse a few years back. How has times changed!

So let's first talk about the good bits here. Oneplus did finally...
