Nokia is still giving us mostly IPS screens. There are basically zero reasons to go for an inferior IPS panel these days. The minimum any user should settle for is 1080p OLED. Not to mention that you can get 1080p OLED at 120Hz on the Redmi Note series or Galaxy A33/53.

Android 12 blocks access to apps for mute people and many others by forcing voice only search (which does not work so even if you can speak you still cannot access your apps)
The very idea of limiting access to voice only is discriminatory against people with disabilities.
My phone just updated to from 11 to 12. And now only 14 of the 67 apps are accessible. That is all that is shown on the screen when swiping up. Previously all the apps were there. Now only 14 show up. The other apps can still be seen in settings/apps.
The only way to access other apps is first you must go to setting/apps to get the name of the app you want (unless you already know it). Th...

Qualcomm has open sourced its aptX and aptX HD encoders, making them freely available to Android OEMs. Here's what that means.
I got so bogged down in details that I sat on this story for months, but in the interest of the community, I'd like to confirm that the encoders for Qualcomm's proprietary aptX and aptX HD Bluetooth codecs are now part of AOSP.
Here's what this means for Android 👇
A few months back, I spotted a patch submitted to AOSP by a Qcom engineer called "add encoder for aptX and encoder for aptX HD source code." aptX and aptX HD codecs are ...

Xiaomi 13 review for pedantic jerks
# Foreword
I’m a digital designer and I’m picky. When I spend a lot of money on something, I like to see a level of polish. If that doesn’t bother you, awesome. Stop reading. This review isn't for you.
I understand that a lot of my issues could be resolved with root, Magisk, or Xiaomi.eu but I’m not interested in that. I’m too old, and have too little free time to be chasing Safetynet and other issues that those solutions bring.
And no, my device isn’t faulty or one of a kind. I buy most smal...
