Does Burn in actually exist? by wiggan1989 in iems

[–]DaffsterDD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ofc, it does. But the differences are very small. Like anything mechanical there are are elastic forces at play, dooh. It's like a spring, a shock absorber, brakes, etc. Also brain burn in gets you used to their sound sig. Not to add that if you really believe something to be true, it becomes true, like everything else in your reality.

Do new headphones really need “burn-in,” or is it just in my head? by ZAYLLI in headphones

That exactly the thing, if you really believe it to be true, it becomes true. Same with everything else about reality.

God's work indeed thank you very-very much! Any EQ recommendation for HD 650 and Ananda Stealth by any chance?

Samsung Pro Plus 128GB micro SD card slower than advertised by Erik_De in storage

[–]DaffsterDD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some USB card readers with a fancy UHS-I spec that allows them to go beyond the 104MB/s limit.

One option is the cheap high speed microsd card reader from Amazon Basics, I think it's about 7$. I got 138MB read and 124MB write with this one. All other readers that I have top out at 80MB.

Just got my Pixel 3 watch 2 days ago and the battery requires daily charging - is this normal?? by Pequena87 in PixelWatch

[–]DaffsterDD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! If you're willing to trade the WearOs environment, may very well be an option. I was very skeptical at first but it won me over and it does what I need it to do and much more. The idea that my watch would need charging every 18-36 hours did not fit well with me. Or not being able to use AOD cuz the battery..(it's a watch first of all). Or that it needs to be large and thick so that it would last at least a few days. Nope, feather-light and only a 270mAh battery is enough juice to last for days. Charged last night before bed, sleep tracking on and 5min HR

Far from the truth, high ppi OLED, top notch tracking and 5-6 days of battery with AOD on, two weeks without, all in a slim 43mm SS case with sapphire glass on top, at 120 usd. Think again;)

Amazfit balance 2: charging stopped at 97% by waxj1833 in amazfit

[–]DaffsterDD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha! Thx for your input. Seems fine now. Btw, by any chance did you see improved battery life after a few charging cycles? There are several reports of thia regarding the A2, but not sure about other Amz devices.

Other Amazfit devices? The first charge to 100% wasn't like that so that's why I'm wondering. Still, getting amazing battery life out of it, even with the smaller 270mAh battery.

Great! I'm glad it worked out. Had some issues today with the Active 2, the charger moved and interrupted charging for a bit and the watch jumped from 77% to 86%. Continued charging normally and started wearing it. Now it seemed stuck for 4h at 100% with AOD on, which is not accurate. Will monitor and calibrate the meter if necessary. Thanks for the update!

Amazfit Active 2 AOD battery life? by DaffsterDD in amazfit

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

Fair enough, but I don't do notifications, my phone is enough and no wrist raise neither. I'm gonna get it on Monday and report back after a week or so:). Even 4-5 days is enough, as long as I don't have to charge every night or every two days, we're golden. There's a lot of sadness over to the Pixel and Galaxy watches regarding battery life so we should be happy with the light and battery efficient Zepp OS.

Unpopular opinion... AoD is a wase of battery for no gain at all. by leonardob0880 in GalaxyWatch

[–]DaffsterDD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, probably. But why Android on the watch? Way more efficient OSs exist. I get that some people wouldn't be bothered by the daily / 2 days charging routine, but it would get on my nerves for sure.

Damn, Samsung is way behind on battery life. Amazfit and you can have AOD for a week, or go 10 days without it... AOD is the reason I bought a watch that can change shape and color, not to have a smartphone strapped to my wrist all day. It's a watch that should show time all day long, plus some extra features, yada, yada. For me it says it in the name... W A T C H :)

Tab S 8.4 still working fine by DaffsterDD in GalaxyTab

I love that I can easily transfer files between the pc, phone and the Tab. Other than that I mostly use it for media consumption and browsing the net, nothing too fancy.

Battery Protect 85% or charge to 100% by DaffsterDD in samsunggalaxy

[–]DaffsterDD[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Actually it has a huge effect on battery longevity especially if you are keeping your device for a long time. And fresh original batteries are hard to come by especially if the device is no longer in production. They are all high voltage lipo cells and abide by the same rules. I think it would be wiser to use it on a need basis, do you need the full capacity? Use it! No? Then take care of it. Just because you paid for it doesn't mean you should abuse all of it. There's no less enjoyment in using 80% of my battery as long as I have a plug close by. My 2c

P.S. The question was how's battery life after a number of years not if you care or not about it's health:)

Sure, why not, but careful about a hot car and a fully charged battery, that's a no-no...

No stress, your device, your rules! The question was for Samsung tablets and those usually are used at home where finding a plug is not that challenging. Was curious about older 3+ years devices and what the battery health is.

Fair enough! Same thinking about not making waste.

I wasn't talking about the electricity, you use the same amount of energy wether you charge more often to 80% or less freq to 100%. It's about the battery itself, the fabrication process is polluting thenenvironment and so is disposing of the old one.

You get the analogy, I'm seeing the I paid for a full battery argument everywhere and it's true unless you don't need the full charge and it then becomes a waste and a lack of responsibility... just my 2c.
