What phone you had the best experience with haptic feedback?

For me, it is the Xiaomi 11 ultra LG V60 and Oneplus 7P. I use to turn off the haptics even chance I got over the years to save a little battery and its use to annoy with keyboards. When I got the Oneplus 7P people were talking about the haptic feedback. With Oneplus 7P that was amazing during gaming but the regular system function wasn't much different from mid-tier phone haptics in my experience.

The V60 was the 1st time I truly valued the haptics, Unlocking with a fingerprint scanner playin...

Props to Android's newer features

I am security and privacy conscious when it comes to my devices. When Google revealed its newest features in Android 12 that pertained to security and privacy, most of them seemed like they existed for marketing purposes alone.

Disabling camera and microphone access for all apps and services isn't something that I think the grand majority of people would do. Yet, they went the extra mile of throttling the other sensors when microphone access is disabled to make it more difficult for those other...

Would you use a phone that no longer receives security updates?

I finally caved in and switched my primary device from my beloved KEY2 to a Pixel 5.

The KEY2 has gotten 3 full years of security updates (impressive for a TCL device) but that has now ended, with August 2021 being the last update.

In the past, I never paid any attention to security updates, I didn't care about them in the slightest. What mattered to me was: Do I actually enjoy the device I'm currently using, even after the initial "honeymoon" period?

Now, thanks to some fear mongering abo...

Small trick to get Youtube app to work with older android...

So Youtube have basically blacklisted all old ver with the "no dislike" ... but if you remove updates and reinstall you can launch it from the play store

Very stupid but it works, but when you close it , it will show the same lame blacklisted screen saying to upgrade or use browser , so you have to do it everytime ,this is just for old androids firmware that cant go any higher...

Manufacturers should offer 5 years of updates and there's a pretty simple reason for it

Android phones in the beginning used to become basically E-waste after 3 years of use and that's no longer the case.

The hardware holds up for a much longer time and people still are using 5 year old phones stuck on ancient android versions.

There are options like custom ROMs but they're not for everyone...
