It’s 2019. Any phone or tablet over $500 MUST have a Full HD or better screen, decent quality camera, a good IP rating (IP 67/68), Fast charger in the box, and WIRELESS CHARGING! #JustSayin cc @JasonTLewisPHT @techrantchannel @Vyyyper @ZAKtalksTECH @tailosivetech

@vibeonX69 It’s an illusion. Modern phones have similar performance. Apple Just tends to use fewer animations and that makes it feel snappier.

Why do iPhones feel faster than Android phones even with less RAM

@yabhishekhd I haven’t seen a C to A cable come with a phone in several years. Samsung, Apple, TCL, Motorola, Google all use C to C. So I’m not sure where you’re getting your information from.

Brands are launching smartphones with reverse wireless charging, yet many still include USB-A to USB Type-C cables in the box instead of USB Type-C to Type-C cables. It’s time brands started including USB Type-C to Type-C cables in the box by default.

@zollotech I see no reason to believe iPhone will be any different. If it can’t match the experience of my iPad Mini it’s a non starter.

@zollotech They still need to prove to me that a folding phone does something better than a non folding phone. The usual “it’s a phone and a tablet in one” doesn’t do it for me because both the phone and tablet experience are less than the separate products.

Would you buy a folding iPhone if Apple does release one this year or do you not care about a folding phone?

@johnnyoutlaw98 @SamMobiles Yes but it is newer so when it comes it will get it first.

@rybt75 @SamMobiles A36 is also a budget phone

May 18 is turning into a huge day for Samsung software updates. Samsung has started rolling out the stable One UI 8.5 update to several Galaxy smartphones across multiple lineups, including the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy S23 series, Z Fold 5, Z Flip 5, A56, and A36. With the long wait leading up to the start of the One UI 8.5 rollout, it's good to see the company isn't wasting time bringing as many devices into the mix as soon as possible. Visit SamMobile for more One UI 8.5 news.

@the_Limberlost @WW_Direct yes, but she's going to have an increased role in the series, even season 1

@WW_Direct That's too bad! But a switch before CoS shouldn't cause too much confusion. Ginny's involvement in the first book is very superficial.

🚨 Ginny Weasley will be recast for season 2 of the HARRY POTTER TV series Gracie Cochrane will no longer portray Ginny “due to unforeseen circumstances” “Her time as part of the Harry Potter world has been truly wonderful, and she is deeply grateful to Lucy Bevan and the entire production team for creating such an unforgettable experience. Gracie is very excited about the opportunities her future holds.” (via Deadline)

@BGR Haven't the stickers pretty much been disappearing from products for like the last four or five years?

Any regular iPhone buyers upgrading to an iPhone 16 or iPhone 17 model will not find a familiar perk: the Apple stickers that came with previous Apple products. #Echobox=1779124996" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">bgr.com/2171713/why-ap…

@johnnyoutlaw98 @SamMobiles That's a budget phone, and not the most recent in its line. You can expect it sometime this summer probably.

@SamMobiles When is A35 ? 🤬

@_KevinLesy_ @SamMobiles Sometimes it takes a few days for it to roll out to different carriers even in the same country. i got it on my unlocked 24 Ultra almost four days before my Spectrum Mobile 25 Ultra. i seem to remember it was similar with the 8.0 update as well.

@SamMobiles I have a S23Ultra but no update is available yet so your information is incorrect.

@SamMobiles I actually got it on my Galaxy S 24 ultra before I got it on my 25 Ultra.

@jmwilt21 We always think they look awful until we eventually get used to them.And then the new ones seem even more awful.

Is it me or do these look awful?

@jondelarroz Rant over! I feel much better!

@jondelarroz They aren't going to change until people stop making excuses for them. Every single thing that Kurtzman made was trash! Trash to varying degrees, but still TRASH! Even in response to this post, people are making excuses for Picard season three and a few others.

Star Trek's 60th Anniversary is a complete joke. We don't get any true Star Trek, just bad gay fan fiction that looks like parody. People have taken over the brand that don't care about science fiction in the least and have changed it from "exploring strange new worlds" to "exploring strange new genders." This is an absoulte abomination. Can it even be fixed?

@jondelarroz Vulcan wasn't destroyed: there was no Romuoan Supernova; the burn never happened. none of it!

@jondelarroz anything about anything from the old days. We need a new ship, a new crew and completely original characters and storylines and everything established by Kurtzman needs to be declared AU or just flat ignored. Canon ended with Nemesis.

@jondelarroz bit of that, but fan service does not give good storyteller. TNG's biggest strength was the fact that it had the courage to stand on its own. we had elderly McCoy in the pilot, and then we had a reference to naked time in the naked now episode, But after that, we barely heard

@jondelarroz characters to be related in any way to canon characters. it\nNeeds to be far enough ahead that either those characters are dead or so elderly , they're not gonna be major characters in this. I'm not saying they can't have fan service, because yeah, you're gonna have a little

@jondelarroz two, which was actually worse than season one. The only even remotely interesting character created by Star Trek picard, they already killed off. What they need to do is a hard reset TNG style. they need a new ship with a new crew and resist the temptation for any of those

@jondelarroz the early twenty fifth century, but Star Trek Legacy can't happen. it was an idea that caught on, but let's be clear. It would not have been star trek anymore than the rest of us Trek! metallas is not gonna be the Savior of Star Trek. people forget that he wrote most of season

@jondelarroz he wants money. The only way forward for Star Trek is for the entire slate to be cleaned. Everything kurt's been touched , including the stuff that some fans actually like needs to be de canonized. I agree with most people that They need to carry the series forward into

@jondelarroz He was involved with it back to the TNG days, and he actually knew Roddenberry fairly well. They spent hours together discussing star trek and his character. There's no way that he doesn't know that this trash is not Star Trek, but he shills with it with the rest of 'em because
