    Whether Google releases the Android 13 Beta or not, that doesn't mean there's nothing new to document. I just added 23 new sections to my deep dive on Android 13! Most changes are targeted towards platform & app developers. Here's a summary (thread): - Mishaal Rahman

    Galaxy S10: 3 years later

    Posted: 14 Apr 2022 02:17 AM PDT

    The Samsung Galaxy S10 is the manufactured's 2019 flagship, so how well does it hold up? Find out by reading my review. (This is a review using a personal unit, running Android 12 with Samsung's One UI 4.1 on the latest Android security update)

    Display:

    This is, quite frankly, the best screen I've ever used. It's an up to 1440p AMOLED display (I say up to because it lets you adjust the setting, you can set it to either HD+, FHD+, and WQHD+, for resolutions of 720p, 1080p, and 1440p). It's got an AMOLED panel which gives off the expected ink blacks, and colours aren't too bad on the phone's standard "vivid" colour profile, but it's too warm for my tastes as a brand new screen. Build:

    It's a typical glass-aluminium (or aluminum, if you're American), sandwich, which is great to hold, and it's reasonably scratch proof for things like keys and coins, with Gorilla Glass 6 up front and Gorilla Glass 5 on the rear. I've got the green colourway, which looks gorgeous in person.

    Software:

    Hello and welcome to bloatville, population: Samsung. Yup, I had to say it outright. Whilst it's not terrible, it's still got the stinkers. Facebook is forced, as is a lotta Microsoft stuff, which is shocking to someone who sees them as a rival to Samsung in the folding phone space. The OS runs flawlessly, however, even on the aging Exynos 9820 chip used in my European model.

    Storage:

    The phone comes with 128GB of internal space, with my dual-sim model featuring a hybrid SIM/SD card slot for either two SIMs, or up to 512GB of external storage.

    Battery:

    Given that my phone's refurbished, it certainly doesn't hold up well, not lasting a full day, but given that I use it heavily, it's too be expected. It has a 3400mAh cell inside, which lasts long enough for me.

    Cameras:

    Triple twelves on the back, one standard, one ultrawide, and one telephoto, letting you get some great shots, no matter the focal length. I've yet to try out the nightography mode on it, but it probably won't hold a candle to the Pixel's Night Sight shooting. It shoots 4K video, unless you're shooting in slow motion, which is limited to 720p, at 960 frames per second.

    Price:

    Eh, it depends on where you get it from. You see, Samsung has discontinued the S10 range. I personally paid £233 for my phone, but prices do indeed vary, especially on Amazon, so be cautious, my friends.

    This was a review of a personal Galaxy S10 the reviewer bought with his own money. Samsung didn't get any approval or edits for this review.

    This is the Unlikely Alternative, signing off. See ya around!

    In-display Fingerprint Sensors - The biggest downgrade in the phone world?

    Posted: 14 Apr 2022 12:47 PM PDT

    I recently made a "downgrade" front the S22 back to a refurbished Pixel 5.

    I truly enjoy the Pixel 5 much more, especially because of the software.

    Sure I do miss the excellent screen and camera hardware on the S22.

    But there is one hardware component that actually felt like an upgrade, which is ofc the pixel 5s physical fingerprint sensor on the back.

    It's just staggering how much I prefer the old school physical fingerprint reader! It mostly comes down to 3 reasons:

    1) It just works (also not effected by screen protectors)

    2) I can unlock my phone without locking at it

    3) Fingerprint sensor gestures.

    I just don't understand this "upgrade" ... It gotta be the worst "upgrade" along with the removal of external memory card slots.

    I don't really mind the removal of the headphone jack since Bluetooth has taken such big steps (I also enjoy the convenience of true wireless earbuds..
