Bigger battery or faster charging?

Curious as to what the community thinks is a superior option, either a larger capacity battery or faster charging.


To put it into prospective, would you rather a phone with a battery capacity of 6000 mAh phone, or a phone of which has a battery capacity of 4300 mAh and has faster charging, meaning it'll charge roughly 45 minutes quicker then the phone with a larger battery? My friend and myself are in disagreement about of which is more important to general users....

What Are You Willing to Give up on the Next Pixel?

Ok, stick with me for some quick calculations that I shouldn't be doing at 4AM. I would argue that the [OnePlus 8 Pro](https://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus_8_pro-9919.php) is probably the best "cheap flagship", that I would have a chance to get my hands on here in the US. If you take that phone, switch out the camera system to Google's, and downgrade the processor to the 765G I think you get pretty close to what a lot of people are expecting from the Pixel 5. From what I can find there's around a $1...

Samsung really did just lock wireless/miracast DEX behind software to promote Note 20 sales

I see no reason for this to not be available for all current android running Samsung phones that support miracast, its all software and they're just not enabling it on the other phones. The new Note's give nothing over the previous to warrant such a big price hike, the only big benefits are the wireless DEX and the 120hz display WHICH I MIGHT ADD is only at 1080p.

Samsung have done this kind of thing before with examples like the Note 9 and it being launched with 3rd party dongle support for DE...

Samsung Flahships not having 1440@120 due to Exynos?

I really hope I'm not saying something that's already said here, couldn't find anything from searches on this subreddit. I was thinking why the Samsung flagships don't have 1440@120 and now seeing the S7+ has an even higher resolution screen running fine at 120Hz, I think it's because Exynos won't be able to handle it for long. It already has a really weak GPU, and pushing 1440@120 is not a trivial task across the entire UI consistently without frame drops. 865 and the displays are clearly capab...

Android 11 for Samsung Devices

I know everyone looks at Android with lack of software updates in the long run as an issue. And to their credit, that has been the case for many years. But has anyone observed the software side of things since 2018 phones? I own a Pixel 2, Moto G7 Power, Galaxy A10e and Galaxy S10e. The Pixel is a little older, the Moto is from 2018, and both the Galaxy A10e and S10e are from 2019. But the one thing they all have in common is being upgraded to the newest variants of Android OS. This is also prom...

Galaxy Note 20 - About the plastic back...

So at first I applauded Samsung for taking the risk of riling up people by using a plastic back (due to far more drop resistance) as opposed to a glass back like everyone would expect, on their new premium $1000 top-of-the-line flagship smartphone.

But then I thought, why not make everyone happy?

They could have gone all Note 4 with a rubber/textured/faux leather style back as seen in BlackBerry's, Samsung XCover Pro, etc (yes it's wireless charging compatible).

That would have been a decent ...

It's interesting that next year's flagships will have larger frequency bands for GPS, Wifi and 5G

- Wifi - Qualcomm FastConnect adds support for Wifi 6E (an additional 1200MHz, spectrum will be nearly tripled to what was available with 2.4 & 5Ghz)

- GNSS - Broadcom BCM4776 adds support for Beidou-3 (60% more satellites than just GPS+Galileo)

Why Android?

I cannot stand the walled garden universe that is IOS. Was wondering what others main reasons were for everyone who chooses Android as their phones platform?

My deal makers are:

PowerAmp and Blue Coins are not available on Iphones.

A much higher degree of customization is possible.

Internal storage upgrade is still possible on selected devices...
