One limitation that persists with most implementations of Realme UI and Color OS (OnePlus seemingly excluded as of late) is the refresh rate and frame rate cap on most games - it’s still 60Hz/60fps. Only a handful of titles can go up to 120fps - FreeFire Max, PUBG (Battlegrounds Mobile India), Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, and Honor of Kings.

Pros

• IP69 in addition to the regular IP68 - underwater mode enabled!
• Display is bright beyond reason, excellent overall.
• Class-leading battery life.
• One of the first to market with the new and super-powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
• Competent camera system for most things.

Cons

• A better ultrawide camera wouldn’t have hurt, selfies are meh.
• Video stabilization isn’t optimal.
• Gaming is limited to 60fps, except for 5-6 popular titles.

The latest version is 3.70.2. If even this fails. You would have to report this to crunchyroll. I’m guessing some compatibility issue with LineageOS and crunchy. Can you stream videos on other DRM protected apps. Try the ones which have a free trial or allow to cancel to test the theory.

Also, does it work on other smartphones in your home?

Ah, yes obviously. We are behind because we can’t exploit our workers but our rivals can. There’s no doubt Samsung would work their workers to the bone if they resided in china.

What kind of playback issue? And what’s the version of Crunhyroll app? Have you tried clear data, to see if that fixes the issue? You can always get an older version from apkmirror to see if that fixes the issue. Until, its fixed on Playstore.

I stream daily on v3.69.1. Its been flawless so to speak.

You need a charger that supports PD and PPS charging at 45w or higher. Check if the charger supports that spec and you should be fine.

In addition to that, other Android distributions have also moved “child process limit” to developer options, which may forebode them removing it, and breaking termux entirely. This is pretty scary IMO.

Can’t you toggle the child process limit in those android distributions you speak off?

Because, this is the data they saved in the super partition. You cannot dynamically change that on a production device.

You mentioned Bootloader Unlock so I was going to day Pixel. But, then I remembered they use Tensor instead of 8 Elite.

Your options will be limited to 8 Elite smartphones supporting phones which allow that.

TL;DR

• Google announced that the next major version of Android (Android 16) will be released in Q2 of 2025, which is several months earlier than usual.
• Google’s VP and GM of the Android Platform told me in an interview how the company was able to move the release forward by so much.
• The Android trunk stable project gave Google confidence that it could roll out updates faster and more frequently without breaking things.

Basically, the Q4 minor release will be the QPR of pixel smartphones for other android users and Q2 will be the major android release with ground breaking changes as usual, just early going forward 2025.

It’s implied. How else would the magnetic part work? I can’t comment on magsafe but it should be Qi2. Unless, they didn’t certify and made a proprietary implementation just for oneplus 13 series smartphones.

I don’t know how notebookcheck measures. But, xiaomi lists the display as supporting PWM at 3840hz. Notebookcheck had written 120hz for oneplus 12 but official oneplus also lists a higher PWM frequency than the one measured by notebookcheck.

The use-after-free vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2024-44068, and it affects Samsung Exynos mobile processors versions 9820, 9825, 980, 990, 850, and W920. It received an 8.1 out of 10 CVSS severity rating, and Samsung, in its very brief security advisory, describes it as a high-severity flaw. The vendor patched the hole on October 7

This is the most important paragraph. This bug was already exploited in the wild and affects select few exynos smartphones. If you have a affected device make sure it is updated and you should be fine.

Interesting, seeing penti keyboard being recommended in the wild. Are you also familiar with picolisp?

Even if they don’t. Android 14 itself is not outdated. Even though his phone and its firmaware may be. The list of changes are incremental at best. To take advantage of them all you would need newer hardware anyway. He won’t be missing much if at all.

I know. I did not expect them to switch from Mali to PowerVR. This is an interesting surprise.

The core and process node upgrades are more noteworthy than ram speed upgrade. This should boost efficiency and performance significanty.

Them switching to PowerVR GPU is also interesting. Not sure if itis related to Qualcomm-ARM lawsuit.

It’s ferro fluid with an array of magnets.
