Galaxy S20 FE 5G Banding Issue

Relevant: I've taking these pictures with an s10+ (to capture the FE) and the FE (to capture the 10+). This pictures were taken in a dark room, the only way to see the banding. Neither phones screen look as bad as the pictures make them out to be in person.

5% Test on the FE:

After update record

Hey everyone, I have a OnePlus 7 pro and can see how OnePlus has slowed down the updates and getting a good deal on the pixel 4a which gives 3 years of guaranteed updates and pretty fast ( I know so because pixel 2 lineup got the android 11)
I was curious to know as how long do you keep your device?
And do you still keep it after it's support ends? I know a lot of people will say that android is mature enough now and nothing game changing would be happening anytime soon but just a few lil extr...

[JerryRigEverything] OnePlus 8T Durability Test - Is it worth the Ice Cream?!

2020 has been the most confusing Flagship lineup ever.

Samsung Note lineup sabotaged regular Note 20 to push Note 20 Ultra and made S20 FE in-addition to regular S20, S20+ & S20 Ultra.

OnePlus announced 8T while they already have 8 pro as thier flagship and I bet 8T pro is on the line very soon.

Google ditched Flagship processor on Pixel 5 which has almost the same specs as Pixel 4A 5G for $499.

Apple now has the latest flagship processor A14 Bionic in all their lineup from $699 to $1099 iPhones.

The definition of flagship is slowly starting to...

Would like to know everyone's thoughts on a technology progression cap where upgrades to phones provide a marginal difference to performance that the average customer sees no benefits in

My brother who works for apple and myself (an avid Android fan) have recently discussed how low end phones like pixel 4a and iphone se, are essentially checking off all the marks consumers need. Great camera, large amount of storage, good screen, ect. While flag ship phones have always represented luxury in the tech industry it seems to be a tougher sale now a days as these $400 phones provide a very high quality experience. An experience that 70% of users would find equal satisfaction in then t...

Is it me or the gap between iPhone and Android has never been that huge?

(about hardware features) I mean I used to hesitate every time I'd get a new phone but now I have the feeling iPhone is far behind with a screen surrounded by huge borders, a phone not thin at all with no TouchID for some of them. In the meantime android grew borderless screens, on-screen fingerprints, front camera embedded in the screen, USB-C and so and so. Do you guys agree?...
