| My 40th Anniversary Sony Walkman just arrived, AMA. Posted: 15 Nov 2019 06:14 AM PST This is a music player running Android Pie. I bought it for its intended use as well as for the cassette Walkman look. It has WiFi, Bluetooth, and the Play Store. So you can install essentially any Android app to it. Internal memory is 16 GB, but there is a microSD slot available. And, obviously, a headphone jack. There are full media controls on the side, and a Hold button for them. There is no skin on the OS apart from a few custom apps. There is also a music volume separate from the media volume. And, most importantly for me, there is a screen that lets you force LDAC 990 kbps, or every other supported Bluetooth audio codec.

| Dark mode breaks bitmap graphics by force-inverting colors. Posted: 15 Nov 2019 09:04 PM PST As is evident here w/ dark mode on: https://photos.app.goo.gl/G627gFazuRCVUE8i9 W/out Dark mode https://photos.app.goo.gl/o4sEqL74S8TbEmoS6 It seems that the email is actually a bitmap image, and Google's software goes around every contour filling it in with black, but struggles around the organically shaped text. Very interesting. [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 15 Nov 2019 08:46 AM PST Last month Microsoft unveiled the Surface Duo, an android phone that fully supports Google Mobile Services. It marks MS's first attempt to reenter the phone market since MS and Amazon tried and failed to break the Apple-Google duopoly. Amazon's hardware ambitions go beyond Kindle sales. Amazon can sell its phone at a loss and make up for it by bundling its e-commerce app, Alexa, Amazon Prime etc (thus gaining new paying-subscribers), alongside Google apps. This business strategy is used by Xiaomi too. Much like Xiaomi, Amazon keeps its profit margins in the low single digits in order to make its hardware accessible to all consumers since Amazon's hardware is the gateway to sell its services. Would you be interested in such a phone? [link] [comments] | ||
| Ambient mode while charging poped up on my Pocophone & works great ! Posted: 15 Nov 2019 09:09 AM PST So I read some time ago about ambient mode, the Google assistant charging home screen / Google photos photo frame, that was coming to the wireless charging Pixels while on the proprietary google wireless charger a couple months ago now. But I just got a notification for "Ambient mode while charging" and here are some screenshots of the setup process and use. https://photos.app.goo.gl/j4D2HR1W9LBYXFYd8 So I thought that it had been since released to more phones, but after some research, it doesn't seem so. I should note I'm currently using "miui-room", a custom Russian ROM (wich crashes and reboots every time I hit 10% and 5% battery) but is currently the only way to get both Android 10 and MIUI on my phone.

| Posted: 15 Nov 2019 02:46 PM PST Just received the notification to enable chat features. Tested and it works fine. Maybe worldwide rollout? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 15 Nov 2019 11:20 PM PST Playstore downloading multiple apps. I noticed last week that my playstore is doing multiple app downloads for the smaller apps. It also downloads and installs apps at the same time This is the first time me seeing this so if it was a side server switch, then it took years to get to me. [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 15 Nov 2019 05:04 PM PST So, Xiaomi recently announced that all their 2020 devices over $285/€255 will be 5G capable. Source: https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_reveals_2020_phones_over_250_will_have_a_5g_option-news-40117.php Nokia has a 5G ready device launching early next year. Am sure other OEMs are going to follow suit. Community thoughts? [link] [comments] |
