Tablet Rotation on Home Screen
Hey there! I know that Android 12L is coming and there is much to be seen there. But for now, I was comparing the iPad's adjustments to the home screen based on orientation vs. the Tab S7's with Android 11.
I knew there was something more "premium" about the iPad's, and I realized that Android LOCKS apps/widgets onto the page no matter what, as well as maintains the layout ratio for the orientation. For example, if by default (in landscape orientation), the home screen is set at 6 columns x 5 ...

Should you buy Zenfone 8?
I'm an owner of zenfone8.
I wanted to share my experience with zenfone8, which was not the best so far. Here I want to tell you why, and warn you from things that you don't find in youtube reviews.
1- Generally, don't buy a phone that is very hard to sell, not a known phone brand. Less people know about Asus phones, unlike Samsung or Apple for example, which makes re-selling this phone a real tragedy.

OnePlus 10 Pro China-first launch is perplexing but calculated, here's why
OnePlus launched the OnePlus 10 Pro in China first, and that might seem like the company doesn't care about the North American market. But experts say there's a reason why the company decided to launch China-first and that it still cares about North America.
RCS is a terrible messaging standard because it is dependent on a carrier phone bill.

RCS is a terrible messaging standard because it is dependent on a carrier phone bill. It's anti-internet and should not be promoted or advocated for. My Verizon bill is not my identity. Apple lock-in is bad, and the solution is carrier lock-in? Nah.
Solved: How to use TikTok with Dark Mode on Android
TikTok has annoyingly never had dark mode for Android, and after what felt like hours of searching online on a few different occasions, I've never came across an actual solution.
I finally found a workaround 🥲
Instructions:
1. Install Brave Browser
2. Enable "Night Mode" setting in Brave
3. Login to "TikTok (dot) com (slash) login" on Brave
4. Disable the "enable bottom toolbar" setting in Brave (makes the TikTok UI fit the screen better, kinda I guess, idk this step might be optional)

LTPO 2.0 vs LTPO 1.0 >> VRR finally works !!
There are several tests of phones with LTPO 1.0 screens showing that the VRR does not actually work (S21 Ultra or Pixel 6 pro), but is in fact only a change from 120 to 60Hz (or 48Hz) in certain conditions. Which is a shame!
However, I have a feeling that the introduction of the new LTPO 2.0 technology seems to fix this problem.
So do you think LTPO 1.0 displays are physically incapable of real adaptive refreshing, or that a software update would be possible?
Because according to my research,...
