- ok this is hilarious: the S21 Ultra's camera, which I used to take these photos, smoothed away the Samsung logo along the bottom of the case. Samsung smoothing away its own product logo is peak Samsung camera.

GSMArena Exynos 2100 vs Snapdragon 888 Posted: 07 Feb 2021 03:29 PM PST Interesting results - look basically identical, seems to be at odds with other reports we've seen? I've never seen such high Geekbench 5 scores on my exynos unit (I get a 3100 multicore max) [link] [comments] | ||

Samsung S21 photos look soft compared to Pixel and iPhone pics Posted: 07 Feb 2021 10:34 AM PST [Samsung S21](https://i.imgur.com/3jTan7i.jpg) [Pixel 4XL](https://i.imgur.com/YqRspIY.jpg) [iPhone 11](https://i.imgur.com/0elOnbl.jpg) The Pixel and iPhone look pretty similar but the S21 just looks so soft and washed-out in comparison. Are there certain settings the S21 I should have adjusted to make the photos look better? Beauty filter is already off, I also thought there might be finger prints on the camera lens but I cleaned it and the photos still look super soft. Here's another example [S21](https://i.imgur.com/p8NSCHA.jpg)[P4XL](https://i.imgur.com/yXkpOlR.jpg) Are Samsung phones not as good at taking pet pics? [link] [comments] | ||

When "Play store" asks you to pay again for an app you have already purchased, do this Posted: 07 Feb 2021 05:30 AM PST I decided to write this short post because lately I'm noticing that more and more people are writing to me to complain about the fact that they can't install a purchased app on multiple devices. This is a well known "Play store" issue that doesn't concern this or that app but is generic and can be easily addressed by following these steps:
An alternative solution is to try to install the app from the web version of "Play store". [link] [comments] | ||

What RSS reader you use and what're your favorite RSS feeds? Posted: 07 Feb 2021 10:13 AM PST For me, I use Feedly. My favourite ones are The Verge, AP news, ZDNet, DigitalOcean, MalwareBytes, etc. What are your favourite ones, and what reader you use? I hope this doesn't break any rules of this sub [link] [comments] | ||

Comparing the OG G1 to the Pixel 4a 5G. What a long way we have come since 2008. Posted: 07 Feb 2021 08:11 AM PST I've been looking for days and the only benchmark score I could find for a G1 was a Geekbench 3 score of 45. Single core only obviously. If we just compare single cores the 4a 5G nets 2825. A nearly 63x improvement. And that's not even counting the other 7 cores at the Pixel 4a 5G's disposal. If we do that it's 150x. 192mb of ram vs 6gb? A 32x increase. And to think how amazing the G1 seemed at the time even giving the iphone a run for it's money in several ways. I've used android phones since the G1 and have owned several nexus and pixel phones. And every upgrade seemed fairly incremental. But then again 12 years is a long time. The first device that really blew me away with it's performance was the Nexus 7 2013. It was really snappy compared to a lot of android devices at the time. It felt so smooth and buttery. And it was damn cheap too. I still use it today as a retroarch platform. And it works really well at that. It's not bad as a video player either. Bluetooth speakers are essential though.

FYI: The S21 Ultra and S21 have a very different camera system this year. Posted: 07 Feb 2021 02:30 PM PST Unlike last year, this year the S21 Ultra has a clear advantage outside zoom. This is an important distinction that only a few reviewers like Andrew Martonik (DigitalTrends) point out:
You can read his S21 review on DigitalTrends where he low-key trashes the camera quality, but in his review of the S21 Ultra, he praises the hell out of the camera. I just wanted everyone to have a more informed understanding when making a purchase. Don't buy the S21 thinking it'll be taking good pics on its main camera as the S21 Ultra. My guess is Samsung exclusively focused on optimizing the S21 Ultra's sensors this year. [link] [comments] |
