[Discussion] android cpu benchmarks cross-analysis

android cpu benchmarks cross-analysis

for computers there are multiple pretty good sites with benchmark scores and tests of cpus

* they also have price : performance ratios
* and graphs etc

for android i wasnt able to find any good sites, maybe i didnt google correctly?

for computers when you have 2 options where everything else is pretty similiar or one is better and also better in the cpu, then you'd just get the better option

for android without the cpu benchmark it's hard to factor in t...

Protip: you can change the speed of quick-scrolling in Google Photos by sliding left and right

I never noticed this until just now. Maybe it works in other apps too, but I've never seen anyone mention this.

I've used Google Photos since it launched, so when I want to jump back to a specific month of a specific year, it can be kinda hard to get to that point when scrolling past like 7 years of photos. I found out that if you grab the scroll indicator and slide it up and down, if you keep your thumb directly on top of it, the scrollbar will stay under your thumb meaning you'll go much fast...

User settings EASY or ADVANCED

I think that the Android settings have become so overbloated with sections and subsections that I think it would be better if during the setup phase of the device that the user has a choice between an easy settings menu or an advanced one which would be what we are using now. as a shop owner there are a lot of people that I talk to that have a lot of questions and I think that some of these people would benefit more if they were to use an easy menu. This would of course have default checks in a ...

Do you want smartphones to go back to the 16:9 screen aspect ratio? Why?

A few years ago almost all phones were 16:9 then the Mi Mix from Xiaomi showed up (I know it is not the first one with the idea) then bezel-less smartphone screen became a thing but with the bezel-less trend manufacturers didn't stick to 16:9, they moved to 18:9 and now they don't stick to any standard, the market is so fragmented right now and this is a bad thing and looks like that they don't give a shit:(

I think this is a bad thing if you are a developer....
