    [@sam_beckman] Hot Take: I don't like Android 11. Here's why

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 08:10 AM PDT

    From Android 1.0 to Android 11, what were some Android features removed over the years?

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 04:48 AM PDT

    I can think of USB Mass storage that was prevalent in 2.3 and earlier up to... 4.3 where it was removed by the Media Transfer protocol.

    There was also Adobe Flash, added in 2.2 and removed in 4.1.

    S20 FE, things I didn't hear beforehand

    Posted: 10 Oct 2020 11:14 PM PDT

    Hi all. Have had my S20 FE for a few days now and wanted to share some thoughts I haven't seen posted online anywhere that I think might help some prospective buyers—

    1. Because of the optical fingerprint sensor, the blue light filter does not work on the lock screen. Ordinarily, this isn't a huge issue, but when navigating with Google Maps at night the blue can be jarring if you're not used to it.
    2. My own device seemingly has display response issues. I've seen some accounts of people noticing the phone tapping and swiping even without their input, but I'm not referring to this. Sometimes I have to tap or swipe multiple times before the phone registers my action, even when there is no other task going on at the same time.
    3. May be related to the last issue for me, and might be an actual hardware problem, but my fingerprint reader is very hit or miss. When it works it works decently most of the time. However, every once in a while it seems to go haywire and not register my fingerprint at all and causes me to have to wait to re-enter.
    4. Coming from an S8+, the screen is significantly less bright at its max setting, especially with the extra outdoor brightness the S8+ would turn on with Adaptive Brightness.
    5. Again, coming from an S8+, I find there to be a fair amount of off-axis color shifting on the display.
    6. Have never really cared too much about the vibration/haptic motor, but this one is pretty weak and feels relatively much more low quality than any other piece of the phone for me.

    Overall a decent phone, but quite a few pieces that have added up to make the phone less of a quality experience than I was expecting. I haven't seen mention of any of these issues anywhere else, so may be an issue with my own device. Any feedback would be welcome. Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions.
