Finally back on Android but with a few reservations

Just upgraded from iPhone 11 pro max to S21 ultra

A few takeaways:

First of all this phone is amazing! I've been on ios since the iPhone X (had the pixel 2 and note 8 before that)

• With one ui 3, samsung has really improved since the TouchWiz days! Everything is so customizable and haven't even thought about switching to nova launcher yet, especially since they added the google discover page to the home screen.

• I thought I would miss imessage the most from ios but I actually don't...I d...

Concept of a pipe dream: Per-app extended storage settings screenshot

^(Side note: Because image posts are deactivated here, I posted the screenshot to an external site.)

This custom-made screenshot ^(()^(PNG link)^()) is a concept of how storage access controls could have been implemented in Android OS, and would allow legacy file access to co-exist with Google's “Storage Access Framework” (SAF).

If you have suggestions for improving this screenshot, please comment.

Concept screenshot Memory card mass storage access options

## Screenshot
(Direct PNG link)

This is a custom-made screenshot of how I would image mass storage be implemented.

Mass storage access to the internal storage was originally possible on many devices, but these days, would be impractical due to file system incompatibility, encryption, interference with system architecture, and more.

But pass-through mass storage access only to the memory card is far more realistic, regarding tha...

How old is your phone?

I know most android enthusiast in this sub often goes for the newest phones out there, but i am here to impose a question.

A colleague of mine still rocking a Samsung Note 2, the Exynos non LTE version, which is almost ancient by today's definition. He used his phone mostly for social media, messaging apps, no games and barely use the camera. Even though the phone might run slow and got hot sometimes he said he's happy with it. The only reason he is buying a new phone later is because his carri...

Why I'm worried about the OnePlus 9's 4K 120 recording capability...

Hasselblad did not put any of their optics or sensors into the OnePlus 9, they basically kinda gave OnePlus color science advice.

So, it all comes down to 2 things, software and hardware. It's going to be using a new Sony IMX789, which is good news, but it will still be smaller than the S21 Ultra's near 1 inch sensor.

And software... we'll see. OnePlus cameras lean between being great, and wierdly disappointing. And the new 4K 120FPS recording option looks like it's setup to fail.
