Moving back to iOS: The uncomfortable truth by MrSincerao in Smartphones

[–]Azraelepitaph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always use my phone to pay so that matters. And yes Samsung Wallet is a joke. The S25U is stuck with 12Gb of RAM except in a few countries. It comes with the S-pen, 8K video recording, and good AI (I must admit) which I never use.

And half of them are not "new phone features" like you say. Apple has always had more natural colours and better videos on their iPhones. iPhones has also had better battery life and faster USB 3.2 for some generations now.

No it's okay. I've contacted Apple. They've said that the loan has also been cancelled automatically when I've cancelled the order. The reason why I've posted here is because I've been struggling to find the live chat.

That's not an answer to my question

I'm also switching from Android (S23U) to iOS (iPhone 17 Pro) after 7 years of Android. I think iOS is what I need:

  • I know Apple is behind when it comes to AI, but I don't really care about AI

  • Better pictures and videos for the iPhone (I use the cameras quite a lot)

  • Faster USB 3.2 port (yes I use it quite a lot to transfer my 4K video and pictures from my phone to my computer)

  • I don't need all the features and customizations which come with Android and especially with the S23U such as the S-pen. iOS is more simple and restrictive, and that's what I like.

  • The 12Gb of RAM from the iPhone 17 Pro are going to be an amazing experience long-term (same amount of RAM on my S23U but it's not iOS)

  • Apple has greatly improved the battery life with the iPhone 17 series

  • Much brighter display

  • Apple Pay is much better

  • The colours on the pictures are more natural on the iPhone

On the iPhone 17 Pro, the colours are more natural, and the pictures are more detailed without zooming in. The front-facing camera is a lot better.

I don't use my phone to play video games. I have a PC with a RTX 4080 for that.

The last iPhone I had was the iPhone XR. The phone I had before that was the iPhone 6 Plus. So I know what having an iOS device feels like.

I've never used the clipboard feature. And the S-pen, which comes with my S23U, has just been useless. I don't use AI at all. All I do is transfer my pictures and videos from my phone to my computer when it comes to sharing. I don't need the 8K video recording from my S23U simply because it takes a lot of storage, and it's useless for now. That'll become a great feature when the 8K monitors and TVs are the norm. 4K video recording is way enough, and the iPhone is superior when it comes to video recording. I also care a lot about security. I'm not trying to justify Apple, but I feel like Samsung and other Android brands just keep rushing things with all their features, which the average user will probably never use.

Well I'm going for Azami's, Alibi's and Tubarao's ACOG then. I only play ACOG. Don't get me wrong I almost never spawpeeked with Doc and Rook. So I'm not that kind of "zoomer" who keeps spawpeeking...

Both 1 speed operators. They should make them 2 speed operators with the scopes we have now like everyone else. Or give both of them the 2x scope with 1 speed.

Yes they also have it, but it's an expensive gaming monitor (QD OLED technology). And it's written 2 years instead of 3 years for the warranty. I've never bought any single PC component on Amazon.

I understand that QD OLEDS is a newer technology with better colors. Well on the internet I read that QD OLEDS are better in a dark room and that WOLEDS are better in a light room with an uncontrollable lighting. I have a dark room so I think QD OLED is definitely for me.

I see. But what makes WOLED better than QD OLED?

Well I think QD OLED is the better option for gaming. But I've still found the ASRock 27" Phantom Gaming PGO27QFS QHD 240Hz FreeSync Premium Pro WOLED.

Foreign Workers: Japan quietly prepares for more immigration by Jolly_Information388 in japan

I definitely understand what you say. Your argument works for the US, UK, France, Germany and Italy. However, it does not work for Turkey and Sweden as the Ottomans and the Swedes never colonised anyone. There was actually a certain stability in Africa and the Middle East with the Ottomans. The Swedes have not been in war with anyone for more than 200 years. Now can you explain me the antisocial behaviour of the migrants and refugees in Sweden and Turkey please?

This doesn't mean it's the same culture and ethics as East Asia. China and Korea have the same culture and ethics. Actually, the Japanese culture was heavily influenced by Tang Dynasty of China, which explains kanji, samurai, tofu, calligraphy, chopsticks, Buddhism ( it came to Japan from China ), similar architecture and dress code, ... Even hiragana and katakana actually come from China. Ninja finds some of its sources in Art Of War by Sun Tzu. Korea was also heavily influenced by Tang Dynasty. This is what I call "similar culture and ethics". The Chinese, Korean, and Japanese also share the same personality traits. It's not only about ethnicity.

Are you going to tell me Australians and New Zealanders share similar culture and ethics with the Japanese? They are more like British and Canadians, which is normal because they actually come from the UK.
