They are a major force in the Chinese market so maybe it might see some traction there, but otherwise, I still don't see a third mobile OS getting genuine market share.

The factory itself was built relatively close to the city(state capital as well). The chairman of the company, I think Warren Anderson was his name, visited India but instead of being arrested was personally given a safe passage by then Indian PM Rajiv Gandhi.

Less than 10 people were ever convicted. Corporate greed overruled human lives that day.

I could be wrong, but didn't previous generation of Samsung A series phones come with eMMC storage. I think this has UFS 2.2, so slight increase there as well.

But I agree that overall it's an incremental upgrade only. And base model of 4GB RAM might not hold in the long term. I had/have an entry level Samsung phone(A05 I guess), but that stutters much

That would be so much better. Even phones with similar battery capacity exhibit so much difference in stand by times. I have a Realme phone right now but it's 5000 mAh battery seems very weak for me. Granted I am coming from a 7000mAh Techno phone, but this one feels almost half as efficient only. I guess stuff like higher refresh rates and OS optimizations do play hidden roles.

Do Silicon Carbon batteries have a lower lifespan than Lion ones? I know they allow for more dense and higher batteries to be packed in slim packaging but didn't knew if there is any potential downside.

As for Arc, I have heard so much praise for it as if it's the next best thing since sliced bread.

Wait, Sync for Lemmy is a subscription and not a one time purchase? Boost's dev did a similar transition but only standard one time purchase there.

How is this relevant to Linux memes?

Yes, it has a 3.5mm jack.

I got a similar phishing mail as well though not for my primary email account. Most of them just redirect to a similar looking login UI and ask the user to enter password.

HMD has committed to only 2 Android upgrades and 3 years of security updates (just like their mid range Nokia series of smartphones they launch(ed)).

Mobvoi's alternatives always boasted of much longer battery life than Pixel or Galaxy counterparts. The author moans about lack of Google Assistant support and wireless charging but honestly, significantly larger battery life is more than worth any Assistant. Also, wireless charging might be more convenient but it genersted

 

Mainly focuses on console and arcade era games but tons of titles and screenshots from the pre 90s era.

 

I am surprised that Google spends so much time tackling custom ROMs via it's Play Integrity API. If only they paid that much attention to say, curating the Play Store more, it had be much better for everyone

 

Some of these features are foldable only and Atleast one that that's more a bug than a feature(read: deeper Gemini integration). Either case, I can only hope how individual OEMs apply them onto their skins

 

The bottom of the article links to the history (individual features) of other IM programs from that era as well like ICQ and Yahoo Messenger.
