What’s the point of the accelerated update schedule if you can’t ship it without introducing critical bugs?!

It may be controversial but I like the glass design. Atleast, on the homescreen. Smartlauncher bought Adaptive themes, frosted glass before everyone now also includes apple’s liquid glass theme take.
I’m conflicted about this in the notification shade but we will see how OEMs implement this on their UIs.


The commentor said he bought phones from LG and ASUS and both shut down their phone devisions. So, i suggested he buy an iphone as a joke.


Researchers at mobile security company Dr.Web found that the new family of Android trojans is distributed through GetApps, the official app store for Xiaomi devices.
If you have a xiaomi and use getapps delete that bloat.


Have you thought about buying an Iphone? I heard even the base model has 120hz refresh rate plus apple did some magic so it feels 120hz smooth without using too much battery.


The person who developed the launcher is not with them. So, why would you Considering, the increased push for tracking it would be stupid to use nova.
There are plenty of launchers which are useful. There’s literally no reason to still use Nova.


It does have a one time payment option. Either that or getting your data sold. You can’t expect people to develop apps for free without anything in return.
Devs please stop making apps big, CPU/RAM heavy. Apps like Facebook/Instagram should be shamed they are 1GB each.
Facebook and instagram don’t care. They have grown complacent. People will use their apps regardless of how much battery it will use. Are you willing to stop using bloated apps until they improve?
Phone/SoC reviews are a scam, they say SD 363 is 50% better than SD 625. I don’t think it is a very big leak from SD625 to 7s Gen 2.
7s gen 2 was released in 2023. The cortex A78 cores used were launched in 2020. They are old plus the soc was not that powerful to begin with. If you want to run battery hogs like instagram and facebook be ready to sacrifice performance and battery.
I think I am going to boycott high tier phones.
You should instead buy a good upper midrange or high end phone once and upgrade only after the current phone stops receiving updates. Smartphones have become very mature and don’t bring ground breaking changes any more.
I had tried my friend’s Edge 50 neo. The phone was very compact and had good battery life thanks to the efficient LTPO display.


Apart from being anti-consumer its also a security feature. They were probably asked to implement this by the indian governement in the security mandate. https://www.reuters.com/world/china/indias-proposed-phone-security-rules-that-are-worrying-tech-firms-2026-01-11/
Oneplus was the last consumer friendly brand we knew. Oppo is now ruining and making it moapplied apple and samsung.


You can open an issue on their github. They can help better.

GrapheneOS is not regular android. It disables JIT and hardens many settings. So, things like proot and others can be finicky to work. Everyone else should be fine unless its an old phone or some chinese phone with certain broken features or restrictions.


What kind of stupidity is this. All they had to do was not write anything. Without Michaal the site will be endlessly filled with such articles


It should run on most modern android smartphones.


No, the repo says it uses proot. There is no virtualization done.
The Android news world will have a void of in-depth news and coverage. Hopefully, we will have something exciting a month later.


It can. There are settings which you can tweak in shots studio.
Gallery should also do that in a similar manner


The re-encoding requires less computation vs other formats.
The affected users will have to get it fixed by visiting a service center.
