    What do people think of the new Motorola One Hyper?

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 05:45 PM PST

    I think it looks fantastic, have loved Motorola's smartphones for awhile now, having been the first Android phones I ever owned. I think the new One Hyper looks great, like a budget OnePlus 7 Pro with Motorola's great software and a headphone jack! Only things I can see that disappoint me a little is the lack of 90Hz and top ported headphone jack, but other than that, might be picking up this phone once it launches in Australia!

    How was your transition from a mid range phone to a high end flagship phone?

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 09:55 PM PST

    I finally stepped up to a Note 10 plus which is supposed to be the best of the best minus the headphone jack for a really good deal. I actually was looking more towards the budget side like a pixel 3a but I guess I decided to go all in and I have to say its not really as mind blowing as I expected it to be for a 1100 dollar phone (I got it much cheaper) but it is an all in all good device and great daily driver especially with the battery life and the beautiful screen. I'm still getting used to the Samsung/carrier bloat but its a great step up from my last phone. I did notice that I stopped obsessively browsing this sub after getting my Note 10. I also noticed that I am more wary of where I pull my phone out in public but I also like showing it off in some situations.

    As the decade ends, what are things you hope Android OEMs/Google can deliver/bring for the next decade?

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 11:10 PM PST

    For example, I hope Google makes their own custom watches—while it's true they bought Fitbit—but that they give it some justice (if it ever happens), and not just half-ass it. I also hope that Google can stop focusing on still photography on their Pixel devices, and deliver huge video recording improvements to keep up with everyone, and to have more reliable phones. I also hope that Android OEM's are less influenced by Apple's decisions, especially around their controversial/big redesigns like the 7/X (like removing headphone jack, notch, etc) and do their own thing. What do you want and hope Android OEM's/Google to deliver or bring in the next decade?

    Red Magic 3S review: The fastest phone I've used, marred by big display issues

    WhatsApp introduces three new features including clever ‘Reminders’ function for Android devices

    One of the reasons I won't be buying an expensive smartphones is because, finding a genuine replacement battery is difficult or impossible.

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 09:17 AM PST

    When I buy anything that costs more than $500. I want it to last as long as possible. Including phones. About five years, would be ideal. However what's stopping me from doing that, is not able to find a genuine replacement battery for it. I'm happy to be proved wrong, though.

    If I'm doing the battery replacement myself. I'd had to settle with either a new-old stock battery (batteries age and deteriorate even not in use), a pulled battery from a broken device (normally, seller don't know how much mileage the battery already has), or a third-party/shitty generic replacement (many are lower quality and could go KA-BOOM at any moment).

    I could go to a service center or a repair shop like UBreakIFix, but as far as I know. I may be out of luck, if the battery has been phased out, and their stock has been exhausted. Especially, if the phone is more than two/three years, and I still wanted to use it, as it's still usable. I know that the OG Pixel can still get genuine batteries through UBreakIFix. But how about others, like Samsung, Moto, Xiaomi, etc?

    I'm not a big fan of Apple, but I do like that they still provide parts for their products, up to five years. If others are not doing it already, then I wish, they'd take note from Apple.

    If I can't keep that phone for more than 2-3 years due to this, I might as well buy a cheaper smartphone that's about $200-300. Then, when the battery on that bites the dust. I would feel as bad, replacing it. Nowadays, mid-range phones are pretty good nowadays anyway.

    Big Battery or Fast Charging?

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 08:25 AM PST

    It seems that phone makers nowadays, especially those producing flagship devices, would much rather incorporate and advertise really quick charging, instead of just sticking a massive battery in it.

    I'm aware that this has to do with the average consumer's needs and what's become standard in the industry (that is, sleekness and looks versus pure usability), but why shouldn't it be standard to incorporate a large battery in these devices so that they have the stamina to keep going for all users, especially when battery technology is advancing?

    I'm curious as to what you guys would rather have. A phone that charges quickly but doesn't really get you through a whole day of heavy use, or one that takes a bit longer to charge, but will last you all day even when you're not giving a hoot about conserving the battery life.

    (slight rant over)

    Is Android 10's Share Sheet at all useful for you?

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 03:59 AM PST

    For me the contact suggestions are completely useless. It seems to favor the Messages app for every contact I often interact with, instead of suggesting the app I actually use to contact them. Apps I often share things to, such as Pocket, I have to search for by scrolling around in the share sheet. The sheet itself is completely unpredictable: It's either a list of contacts on a horizontal axis followed by another list of horizontally displayed app targets or it's a vertically ordered list. It seems to depend on the app for no particular reason. The horizontal one is difficult to scroll in it you're using the new swipe gestures.

    I have no idea how this got into a production release. But then, at least it's no longer the sluggish mess it was for years before.
