The Samsung Galaxy S10 (Snapdragon) does not output high-resolution audio through the headphone jack!

Most people probably won't care about this, but this is an issue nonetheless.

You may be aware that the Snapdragon 855 carries certain features along with it. One of these features is the [WCD9341 audio codec](https://www.qualcomm.com/products/wcd9341). Among other things, it allows for relatively high quality audio decoding at a maximum PCM resolution of 384kHz/32bit. Most Snapdragon-based phones with headphone jacks since the SD835 onward are configured to use the direct_pcm output in order t...

Are handsets with movable parts here to stay?

With Samsung announcing the A80 ([samsung gif showing the mechanism](https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/01_GalaxyA80_camera_Angel_Gold.gif)) and foldable phones coming to the shops, do you think the next iteration of smartphone evolution might be about movable parts?

What's wrong with moving parts on a phone? I have a 20 year old washing machine, I had several cd/dvd players and the motorized tray never broke.

Yes, water and dust resistance is nice but so are...

I think the hole punch Orientation being on the right, is a mistake. (New galaxy and google pixle 4 leaks) Does anyone else agree?

I always rotate my phone counter clock wise to watch video, and I feel like a hole punch that is oriented on the left would make it "disappear" more, as it would be on the bottom of the phone. Also, I like having the essential information of my phone on the far top right, such as battery, time, wifi, ect, and the right orientation messes with these constant functions. The notifications are far less important in my mind since I try to clear them anyways.

Does anyone else have strong opinions on...
