Bluetooth was always insanely reliable for me for file transfers even on phones and PCs that were a decade apart in manufacturing date. It was slow, but for a lot of things that was fine, and it was the obly way to get data from some really

The obly aspect they are consistently ahead is single thread performance compared to Snaodragon. GPU has been behind for a few gens.

iPhones on average don't last 3 times as much ib people's hands as Android phones that cost 66% as much. Better resale value is fair, but I am contesting that 2N figure strongly.

To be fair there are a few metrics where CRTs smash any LCD, mostly response time related, but OLED and MicroLED can bridge that gap...

We are working on setting up Home Assistant to react to when we are home or not where I live. We do this based on mac adresses connected to wifi, and this is something that would not be possible without a computer in everything.

I can swipe to go back on either side on Android, while on iPhones the 2 options is a swipe from the left or a button ON THE TOP LEFT OF THE SCREEN usually. With my right hand, even going back one page in the settings app is a chore on sma

My best guess is probably goint to be more than 1% in markets where SMS is commonly used. Not by much, but more than 1%. Maybe 2-3% tops.

It is more a security nightmare than an environmental one. I have no idea what MS will do when 20% of online computers no longer recieve security patches, but most people won't throw out unsupported machines. What is also interesting i

Look up some alternative SMS clients on the Play Store and you will see there is a market for it. People on forums have been also complaining about there being no way to do this with RCS.

The power of default apps is significant. Google got slapped for just that in the EU and there is a browser selection screen on setup.

I have seen comments from iMessage users, and it is also logical to assume that they would prefer if there was a way to chat with their Android friends via iMessage while having most of the nice features. An Android iMessage app would only

Other commonly emulated devices are not "general purpose" computers like phones, tablets and laptops. There is no need to emulate those systems generally since they can be ran in a VM (Linux, Android (mostly), and Windows). I know

As a big root user, I don't lay the blame on Google. They don't prevent much on rooted devices, mostly just gpay, but they do provide the tools for other apps to do detection. Google devices are also the best for modding from a te

My samsung tablet (wifi) has an average idle drain of 0.3% per hour, meaning what you see in 2 days would take a week. On windows laptops hibernation can also fix idle drain, but that is a bit of a hack. The 3ds is atrocious though, even wi
