This screen is spectacular. Only knock is its 60hz instead of 90hz+, but everything else about it, wow. The front facing camera is hardly noticeable, and the screen is as close to edge to edge as you can get. 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, but expandable up to 1TB with a card. My pixel 2 had 64GB and I didn't come close to filling it over my 2 years, so this is probably overkill for me. Whole phone is probably overkill, but fuck.
Got some accessories I want to pick up. I've never had wireless charging. Going to get the wireless charging stand. I have the Aura color and want to get a clear case to keep that showing on the back.
Also surprised at how non intrusive the Bixby bullshit is. Far cry from my last Samsung (the first Edge phone).

Pixel 2 is best phone I've ever had, rocking the pixel 3 atm.
Let me know your after first month impressions. Honeymoon period is a thing with phones.
By AlphaSnacks Go To PostWhere can I get an international SIM card that has super cheap data while I'm in the UK?
I could be wrong but I think you just get a sim card with some international bolt ons.

Oh I know.
There wasn't anything wrong with my pixel 2 xl. Probably the best phone I've had. Just wanted to change it up.

By Wahabipapangus Go To PostThis is really nice actually 👌
By Gaby Go To PostUpgraded from S8 edge to Note 10 +.
Loving the screen and the speed.
It is lovely.
Just copped a case for it today. You can still see the Aura color on the back, but its sort of a smokey grey / clear case, and compliments it well.
I continue to be very happy with my Redmi Note 4. 180€ well spent two years ago. The 2€ transparent case I bought with it is also serving me well.
I'll keep you guys updated, but you shouldn't expect any news before 2021, unless something unexpected happens.

Bought myself an LG 27" UK850 4K HDR IPS monitor for home since I have been WFH a lot lately. Will come in handy for photo editing too.

Okay, I'm 4 days into it now. So, very much the justifying the purchase moment still. But here's why I don't feel buyer's remorse (which I had before opening the package):
- it's just so snappy, i didn't know the processor's tech improved like that, I thought it was as stagnant as computers.
- the screen is beyond comfortable and beautiful, unless I plan to type, I wouldn't bring my laptop around. Like, VSCO is so good now, I don't know if I want to use lightroom on computer anymore.
- the battery life is easily beyond a day of intense use (4g sharing, video, etc).
Not really using the stylus so far. Maybe I'm uneducated about it.
Also, haven't used the cameras much.

There's a lot of features to take in, tbh. Especially for me coming from a Pixel 2, but I'm getting adjusted. I've actually used the stylus a few times for short notes. There's still a whole set of stylus gesture actions that I haven't messed around with yet. But yeah, I agree with everything you said.
I think having video resolution options (1080p30, 1080p60, 4k24, etc) in the camera app would make sense. No idea why those are in the Settings app. My guess is to have 1080p30 enabled by default since a majority don't want the crazy amount of space that 4k video takes up?
But at least they could add a gear icon that's a shortcut to the Camera section within Settings.

Vivaldi Beta is live for Android. Pretty smooth, but no add-ons makes me hesitant to switch from Firefox.
Glad I didn't end up waiting for the iphone 11. Seems like next years is the one worth making any possible jump.
I think im passed the honeymoon period on my note10+. Still love it. Haven't had any issues to this point. Eyes are comfortably adjusted to the large screen. No complaints really. Good job Samsung .

Waiting for the Pixel 4 + to come out but think I'll be joining you.
The Note 10+ screen has become the new normal to me. Literally every other phone seems like a downgrade, and I suspect I'll value the size a lot in the future. Still feels like a phone, not a tablet, yet instagram chrome etc, feel perfect.
Anyone know if HDR is only supported through HDMI? I am trying to figure out how to enable HDR on my LG 27" 850W, but I think I am limited because it's connected via USB-C and not HDMI.
EDIT: Looks like I can get a DisplayPort to USB-C cable that supports 4K and HDR.

The Display Port connection on the spec sheet doesn't mention HDR so that adapter probably won't work, either.
An actual adult human once asked me what phone I was using, and after hearing me say "iPhone XR," she wondered out loud why I was using "a poor person's phone." I was stunned by how cavalierly she said it, and how quickly she seemed to come to that conclusion
I could definitely see Reilo blurting this out, smh
By NinjaFridge Go To PostIf you drive like you update slaent i'm probably safer not being in itYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Since I don't update SLAENT then the joke means I don't drive the car? Did you and PSY think this joke really through when you came up with it?
By diehard Go To PostI'll start complaining about lack of feature updates the day you monetize itHow do you think he got the Jaaaaaagg. Wooden's data could advance the psychology field tenfold.
until then..
I don't even have the free time to implement a monetization scheme. Not like we're big enough to warrant one anyhow.

From Day 1, SLAENT was made within Silicon Valley because Sharp already lived there. Way to be #FakeNews
