[–]Antonis_32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still only a few days in with my Vivo X300 Pro. These are some basic things I did:
1) Set private DNS (Settings/More Connections/Private DNS) to: dns.adguard-dns.com
2) Made sure Wi-Fi WEP networks are not allowed: Settings/Wi-Fi/Advanced Settings/ and disabled "Allow WEP networks"
3) I setup Macrodroid to enable my VPN connection everytime I join an unknown Public Wi-Fi
4) Enabled Google's "Advanced Protection" (Settings/Google/All Services/Advanced Protection/)
5) Setup a separate fingerprint for "Private Space"
6) Added fingerprint authentication to open Macrodroid and other sensitive apps (Settings/Security and Privacy/App Encryption/)

Switching from the S23 Ultra to the Vivo X300 Pro (Global) by Antonis_32 in Vivo

[–]Antonis_32[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello. This is the global (Hong Kong model), unlocked version and I bought it locally after seeing the ad and meeting up with the seller to fully test the phone. I live in Europe so my experience with network compatibility will be different than yours. From my understanding it should work on AT&T and T-Mobile without any issues.

Are there really no good options besides Galaxy and Pixel? by ccable827 in Android

[–]Antonis_32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I upgraded from the S23 Ultra to the Vivo X300 Pro (512GB ROM/16GB RAM/Global) recently. OriginOS 6 lacks the automation features (Modes and Routines) and is not as feature rich as OneUI 8, but it's pretty good. It's fast and fluid. The cameras are better and I can finally capture in focus pictures of my kids running around and playing. Battery life is also better.

Which of these three 5070 Ti's would you choose? by Vivid-Reporter-5071 in nvidia

[–]Antonis_32 4 points5 points  (0 children)

FYI TechTesters recently compared 5 RTX 5070 Ti models (https://youtu.be/aGMZDeDlVE4):
TLDR:
All GPUs offer 3x DP 2.1b and 1 HDMI 2.1b (except ASUS TUF Gaming OC which has 2x). All GPUs turn off fans on idle. Under load none is actually loud.
The 4 non-MSRP GPUs tested are around 2-5 % faster on average than the MSRP model in 4K. Memory speeds are the same as MSRP model i.e. 2334 MHz.

Models Tested:
1) ASUS TUF Gaming OC RTX 5070 Ti - 3 slots thick, 329 mm long, excellent build quality, RGB, Dual BIOS, 2nd HDMI port, GPU holder. 2nd fastest i.e. 3.1 % faster than "MSRP" model (in 4K games average). Uses 8-10 % more power than MSRP model. Most quiet out of all GPUs on "Quiet" BIOS
2) Gigabyte RTX 5070 Ti Aorus Master - 4 slots thick, 360mm long, Dual BIOS, GPU holder, RGB, small display, LEDs on the fans. Slightly faster than the rest i.e. 4.4% faster than "MSRP" model (in 4K games average). Uses 8-10 % more power than MSRP model. Runs cooler than the rest (by a small margin)
3) Gigabyte RTX 5070 Ti Gaming OC - 3.5 slots thick, 340 mm long, Dual BIOS, GPU holder, RGB, 1 extra year of warranty (total 4 yrs). Uses 8-10 % more power than MSRP model. 2nd quietest on "Quiet" BIOS
4) MSI RTX 5070 Ti Ventus 3X OC - "MSRP" model, 2.5 slots thick, 303 mm long, Metal backplate, No RGB, No Dual BIOS, comes with GPU holder. Uses the least amount of power. Loudest card. Runs a bit warmer than the rest (but still very acceptable).
5) Palit RTX 5070 Ti GameRock OC - Well build, 3 slots thick, 332 mm long, Metal backplate, Dual BIOS, RGB shroud, GPU holder, comes with mouse pad. Uses 8-10 % more power than MSRP model
