It'll definitely increase the security levels in Android particularly who worry about chinese OEMs...

How can I move music that was purchased on an iPhone using Apple Music to a Samsung J3.

I need to store it in a folder on the Samsung as an mp3 in order to use the app “I am a band”. I can purchase new music on the Samsung using amazon music and download it to the phone and that works but I don’t want to re-buy all my songs. I’ve installed Apple Music on the Samsung but I don’t know how to store the purchased songs in a folder on the phone....

Most answers here, about HDMI support, is wrong.

Typical question is like: does my phone supports HDMI cable connection?

Especially Xiaomi community here is full of wrong answers, as most of Xiaomi phones does have only USB 2.0 interface.

But the truth is: ALMOST ALL Android devices, phones or tablets, is possible to connect through HDMI cable.

To be more specific: if your phone / tablet

1. runs on Android 5 (Lollipop) or newer,
2. if ...

Is the size factor important for you when choosing a new device?

I'm just curious if you consider size as a factor when choosing a new device.

I see many times there's a ton of people jumping from one flagship to another and that including jumping from a big phone to way smaller phone and vice versa (for instance S20 Ultra to Pixel 4a) and all they mention when comparing is everything but size.

I'm currently using my ancient Honor 9 and all I'm worried about is if I get used to a bigger phone once I upgrade.

So is the size factor even important to you any...

Surface Duo YouTube embargo is straight up shady and shouldn't be encouraged.

Lately all smartphone releases goes through the same pattern. Youtubers get early hands on and are said to lift the embargo at the exact time that the company sets.

This creates lots of buzz and becomes talk of the town when all Youtubers post their video at once.

Microsoft has taken very clever approach here by making sure Youtubers shows the only part they want it to be highlighted.

All the youtubers have gotten their review unit in a nicely packaged form and are said to post only the har...
