The Exynos990 version of the Galaxy S20 / S20+ uses an ISOCELL S5K2LD sensor instead of the IMX555 adopted by the Snapdragon865 version.

Night mode on the Galaxy S20 creates a grid. If you take a close look at this photo, which was taken in pretty much complete darkness, you can see a 4x3 grid ghosted in.

I got better battery life through vigorous changes but at what cost?

S10 Plus Exynos. The cost is convenience and sanity.

I did everything from disabling chrome, only using duckduckgo, no web and location activity, deleted all my web and location history, deleted everything from drive and photos and stopped syncing for nearly everything, installed NetGuard and set it to manage all system apps and turn it on all the time when phones off...

The result is now all my files and music and photos are on my sd card. If I lost it or the phone was stolen... I'd lose ever...

My S20 Ultra review, coming from a Pixel and iPhone user

This phone should have a Chinese brand name on the back and cost $750. The S20 Ultra is not a "premium" phone. From hardware to software, it shouldn't cost $1400. It probably shouldn't even cost $1000. It's buggy, and completely lacking in the polish you would expect from a premium phone at a high price.

​

**The Bad:**

The back glass feels exactly like plastic. It flexes when I push on it, and the entire phone sounds (and feels) hollow when you tap on it. [It rattles when shaken](https...

Opinion: Samsung's software update model shows that the company believes in the two-year contract and trade-for-upgrade model

To me, it appears that they expect customers to purchase their phones on a two-year contract, use it for that period of time during which they'll get guaranteed full updates (security and version), then trade it in at the end for an upgrade on another two-year contract. This would make sense because Samsung is a brand people often buy on contract.

The remaining year of monthly security updates and however much time of quarterly updates suggests that they only do that to say "look, people who us...

Anyone waiting for the successor to the Cortex-A55?

Improvements to the "Gold"/performance cores are great, but I'm hoping ARM introduces a new efficiency microarchitecture this year, so SoCs next year can use them.

A53 was announced in 2013. First SoCs implementing it came out in 2014.

A55 is being announced in 2017. First SoCs implementing it came out in 2018.

Hopefully the refresh comes sooner than 4 years.

"The Cortex-A55 cores remain practically the same, which to be honest are getting a bit long in the tooth as they’ve essentially not c...

NVISO APK Scan closed last October

I did a search and no one seemed to comment on this, so I felt like I'd bring it up now.

>When we launched ApkScan, its sandbox supported the analysis of more than 90% of all the apps uploaded by users; however, over time, more recent Android versions have made it difficult for ApkScan to perform a dynamic analysis using the original sandbox. Supporting modern Android apps would require a major overhaul of the sandbox we currently use; this is an investment we haven’t and can’t prioritize i...
