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.

2- The OVERHEATING issue. This phone just likes to overheat for any reason! It's back feels ...

RCS is a terrible messaging standard because it is dependent on a carrier phone bill.

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)
5....

RDNA is extremely power hungry even for desktop applications. Not sure which delusional Exynos fanboys think AMD will be the saviour and change everything....

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,...

For all the people saying Google should just create competitive messaging app

Imagine Google created the perfect Android messaging app and it was as beloved by Android users as iMessage is by Apple users.

You still have the same situation where SMS is the bridge between iMessage and Google's perfect messaging client.

Apple has walled off their users, and made it so the only want to communicate to them (via the default messaging application) is via insecure SMS/MMS....
