    Samsung Galaxy S20 FE touch screen (ghost touch) issues come to light

    Motorola is the last good Android brand making affordable phones that are rootable and don't pre-include bullcrap

    They still have stock android, the old Android ringtones and alarms from the 1.0-4.4 days, their gestures are pretty cool even though I don't use gestures, they still have a headphone jack, they don't try to act like Android isn't owned by Google and change a bunch of shit, and they don't include their own shitty messages app, caller app, or their own crummy app store.

    S20 FE 5G - Dissapointed somehow :(

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 10:20 PM PDT

    I have been using S20 FE now since October 5th and my initial thoughts - Wow phone is super fast as compared to my existing Note 8 which I was planning to trade in. Everything worked better than note 8 - Smooth scrolling thanks to 120 Hz display , quick fingerprint sensor and punch -hole camera (my first experience) looks stunning. BUT the problem started when I was using camera on FE outdoors and took my note 8 with me so that I could compare. First screen on FE is not as bright as Note 8 and adaptive brightness didn't work as expected causing screen not switching to full brightness even though slider was showing max brightness level. I had to turn off adaptive brightness option and reset the slider again to gain full brightness. Also FE was running very hot compared to Note 8 and when I did some research I found some Galaxy phones have this issue so I reset the phone and followed some other troubleshooting stuff. But the issue came back next day and I am so frustrated with this issue when I like everything else on FE but just cant digest my 2017 note 8 screen is better than 2020 phone. Secondly colors looked washed up on FE I mean screen is in VIVID setting on FE and its just no match with Note 8 where screen looks fantastic ( I like saturated vivid screens). I took a picture of hibiscus in my front yard and when I looked on FE screen it looked so whitish and pink color was not as punchy as it looked in Note 8. Definitely on FE screen is sub-par and for me that is a deal breaker and leaning towards Note 20 ultra now.

    Wouldn't it be better if Android OS and phones were designed to last longer?

    Posted: 12 Oct 2020 03:12 AM PDT

    Instead of a new OS every year that makes older ones obsolete, it would be nice if the OS itself was highly customisable so you can install whatever updates. That way Android OS can last 5+ years.

    For example I have Windows 8 which is a 8 year old OS and I haven't updated it in years but I can still run pretty much any modern software out there.

    It would be nice if phones became like desktops in the sense that people replace them every 5-10 years than every 2 years.

    Also on the hardware side, phones made even 5 years ago have the computational power to do 95% of the things that people require from their phones.

    It is entirely a matter of hardware engineering(replaceable batteries, component lifespan estimation) and software engineering(longer lasting OS, reduction of software bloat) to make phones last much longer.

    At the same time, it is not beneficial for companies to do this. Smartphones have rapidly become a mature market is developed countries, meaning that revenue growth is stagnant. If smartphones started lasting much longer, people would replace slower and revenue would drop.

    Hopefully we will see the rise of a "Android Toyota" that markets itself on long-lasting reliability. There are already a few startups that emphasize modularity, ease of repair, sustainable sourcing etc, but they have not been very successful as of yet.
