The new Google Play Store 'Manage apps and devices' section... is really bad

I don't understand some of the changes Google makes to perfectly working apps for seemingly no reason. It now takes an extra click for checking for app updates, which adds up when you check it multiple times a day.

More importantly, updates don't always show up on the first screen. 1 in 10 times, it'll show the 'All apps are up to date' message but when I click on it and click 'Check for updates', two new apps will show that they do in fact require updates. What the hell?

And whose idea was it...

On the first image you can even zoom onto other portions of the photo and see the detail that the 108MP captures. You can easily read names...

Android without Google Services is gonna be more usable soon !

Here's a simple study conducted by me - So we all are aware that Windows 11 is coming with Android support using Intel bridge technology and the app repository would be 'Amazon App Store' with 500k apps, not Google Play with more than 2 million apps ... 

So a normal person would see this as a collaboration with Amazon and Microsoft but that won't be the actual story under the hood ; it's Amazon's Another creepty attempt to create a Google-free Android . This collab would lead more and more andr...

Why are 'budget' processors still a thing?

I stumbled across a topic on r/emulationonandroid asking about what games a Snapdragon 480 device could handle, and it got me thinking... why do we even have this processor line (and others like it)?

Surely we could keep creating 'budget-friendly' devices by continuing to produce the flagship processors from previous years? This would reduce costs for the manufacturer since no R&D is necessary for an existing chip, as well as reduce costs for the end user since the device would no longer be top...
