Is there anything important left for non-folding phones?

The only tweaks I can think of that'd really make a difference at all would be under-screen cameras and full-screen (or even half screen) fingerprint sensors

Beyond those two things... is there anything left for non-folding phones?...

What's your favourite non-flagship Android device/most underrated phone?

I was thinking about my favourite devices I've owned, and I think one that I loved a lot that flew under the radar compared to other devices I've owned like the Galaxy S9 and Nexus 5 was the Moto G5 Plus.

This phone was awesome for the time, the Snapdragon 625 was crazy efficient, I was getting 7-8 hrs of SoT with this phone and it performed well enough that I never experienced any lag on the phone. The gestures were awesome too, I still miss the karate chop flashlight gesture to this day. I h...

What is everyone looking forward to most for phones in 2022?

I'm a phone enthusiast and was most excited about the Pixel 6 in 2021 because of what it meant for Android and its hardware + software capabilities. But what about 2022? What is everyone looking forward to most from Android phones, Android, or smartphones in general?

AI, AR, improved biometrics, camera performance, privacy, battery/charging, new form factors?...

Former Google Play Music Users: What did you move to? Has your audio consumption changed since?

Now that it's been a year since GPM shut down, how are all you former users getting on?

What solutions have people moved to - free, paid or self-hosted?

Was it as devastating of a change as everyone expected - have you been unable to reproduce features/uses cases from GPM? Is your music consumption, and podcast consumption if you ever used that, significantly different now? Better/worse?

Just saw a mention of GPM in another thread and got curious about other people's general experiences, now ...

PSA: Not all aptX Adaptive products are the same

I did my homework and come to this conclusion.
The specific specs of aptX Adaptive is not shared to the public. From what I know Qualcomm made 3 revisions of aptX Adaptive, r2.0 -> 2.1 -> 2.2. The first one, r2.0 introduced with the Snapdragon 855, was limited to 24-bit bit depth 48khz sampling rate and have a variable bitrate between 279 - 420 kbit/s. This is despite QC advertises the sampling rate up to 96khz and when questioned they said it will come with "upcoming software update". But the...

Review: Hold on before picking Pixel 4a over iPhone SE

After years using iOS I decided to go back to Android. However I only like Pixel Android. Im a fan of Google services and I believe their "stock" Android is the way to go. I really like Android 12 however things with this phone has not been perfect

1 - Vídeo quality: After watching many reviews between Pixel 4a and iPhone SE camera, I got the conclusion that they were similar, both good enough for me. However in practice, this turned out to be very far from true. Posting videos in social media...
