Common misconception/mistakes I am seeing everywhere on smartphone reviews

Snapdragon 888 is a disgrace and the snapdragon 870 is a better chip. (Exynos 990 vibes)

The snapdragon 888 consumes more power , overheats easily and after some time it performs worse than the 865+/870. On day to day usage no one will notice the performance difference and the new ISP on the SD888 goes mostly unused. They will , however , notice the better battery life , less heat and the cheaper price.

Not all 5nm (and other nodes) are made equally .

Samsung's 5nm(SD888, Exynos 210...

Wishlist for Android and Core Google Apps

(Google apps because they are commonly built in with the OS and shipped on phones).

* Google Photos - Spot Healing Tool. Surprised this isn't a thing yet! Remove acne, background people, etc. (Like Photoshop)

* Pixel Launcher Notification Badges numbers or some sort of update here

* Share Menu revamp - Terribly slow and janky. iOS is way more useful and fast when loading. And there are like 8 different varieties. UGHH

* Dedicated Weather App

* Google Photos Vault to be cloud based with pass...

Samsung (instead of Google) fixed Google Assistant reminders not getting transmitted to Wear OS smartwatches for the first time in years, ironically on the watch that doesn't have Google Assistant yet.

Back in the dayz setting reminders via Google Assistant on a Android Wear watch was not only an advertised functionality on the watch (listed in the things that you could do with GA on smartwatches) but also actually worked by displaying the reminder on said watch. I used to use that all the time on my original Moto 360.

Suddenly though, reminders only showed on the phone but not on the watch. You could still set them via Google Assistant on the watch, they just wouldn't alert you or at all ge...
