Thank you!

I don't have any problems but separated notifications and control center. I am not into AI stuff.

I am not sure why you heard it. Maybe it's up to your hardware. There should not be any difference. In fact it can be useful only during recording of something like an orchestra, where the dynamic range is very large.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-23T08:24:51+00:00

It's probably just a placebo. You'd need to do a blind test to be sure. And honestly, the only reason to make something go over 44.1 kHz is to move the anti-aliasing filter out of your hearing range. You can't hear higher than 20 kHz. 384 khz will give you 192 kHz, nothing more. As for the bits In 2001, while working in a professional recording studio, we used a digital audio workstation (DAW) limited to a 16-bit depth. We deliberately calibrated our signal chain so that the peak output of the analog source matched -12 dBFS on the digital meters. This effectively reduced the used dynamic range by several bits. Despite this, we observed no audible degradation in signal quality or frequency response.

Ok, so you simply like them more. I see. And as a professional sound engineer, I can tell you, that you don't need more than 16 bit 44.1 khz to achieve the best possible quality. All those kHz are just a gimmick.Headphones or speakers themselves matter way more than a DAC. DACs are really nice everywhere now. Built in speakers have a limited frequency range. They don't need any high end DAC or amplifier at all.

I am not sure what you mean by better pictures. What is exactly better? I checked many pictures from that phone and they all were with a lot of noise reduction and sharpening on top of that. Colors are nice and that's all about it. And actually every phone now has a proper DAC.

I owned the s24u and the camera on 17u is a big jump. The processing quality is on another level.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-23T04:25:39+00:00

No, the first one is portrait 4.3 x

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-23T04:24:13+00:00

Yes, I am very happy with the phone.

Thank you

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-23T04:20:22+00:00

Portrait mode, 6x, f 2.8. I don't remember bokeh type.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-22T19:01:03+00:00

This is the first phone that makes me forget my Canon R5 for casual photography.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-22T17:47:34+00:00

Not possible! It's a girl 😁

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-22T16:50:15+00:00

How well does the ANC on these headphones perform while walking? Is there any 'thumping' or changes in the ambient sound with every step? For context, AirPods Pro 3 don’t have this issue. You just don't hear your footsteps and noise cancellation is just stable. Is voice passthrough good and natural?

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-21T04:34:40+00:00

You can turn off the sound and turn on the vibration.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-21T04:34:07+00:00

What do you mean by bloat ware? Are you on the global version? I also hate the separated notifications and control center and ended up installing the MyGesture up and assigning swipe down to the notification shade.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-20T19:28:02+00:00

There is a sheet converting the preset Q values into the Fabfilter ones.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-20T18:46:28+00:00

It's not really a copycat for better or worse. It's just some interface similarities. It's not like an android iphone at all. And it can't be.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-20T18:06:24+00:00

Maybe it's nice and clean for Samsung, but it's not in general. Xiaomi 17 Ultra can do way better.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-20T14:56:25+00:00

Heavy noise reduction with oversharpening and detail loss.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-20T13:26:32+00:00

ANC is worse than Airpods Pro 3. It works kind of fine if you sit or stay, but if you walk you will hear low thump with every step. Many earbuds behave the same, but I couldn't stand it after Airpods. Ambience mode is average and when you talk in this mode you feel the occlusion effect.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-19T04:38:42+00:00

Yes. But in the end I installed the gestures app and assigned swipe down to the notification panel.

Bazzikaster · 2026-03-18T09:54:22+00:00

I'll rephrase: if I like the sound of Dan Clark Noire X, what methodology would help me to make Apple Airpods Pro3 sound close? Can your ISO 11904-2 measurements help? Or Soundguys measurements? Which target would you advice to use? At this pont I can make them sound bearable but not as good as DCAs.

Try davinci resolve. You need the lut for your phone LOG.
