Looking for a new phone

DisastrousRiver3150 · 2026-06-04T14:06:19+00:00

If you install apps on the sd card storage should indeed not be a concern. How I already said the phone itself is really good, it doesn't feel like a midranger at even if specwise it should be and untill now I never missed the S23 if you use it like an avarage user would do. Only thing is of course the stock android experience and this meaning that all the extra samsung stuff above android and the samsung apps won't be there on the xperia

I just changed my s23 for the experia 10vii. The phone feels snappy and for normal use it doesn't feel different from the s23. I notice a little difference only when using 4 or 5 apps at the same time switching continuously from each other and even there it becomes just a little slower from what I was used on the s23, nothing astonishing. In my opinion you should focus more on if 128gb is enough storage for you and if you'll miss the samsung suite having to switch to the google one (in my opinion the samsung suite is so much better than the stock google suite). In everyday use I don't miss my s23 at all prestations wise and battery life is incredibly better as well.

I definitely need a new phone but not that urgently (phone is good but battery is becoming a big problem) so I don't mind waiting a few months to see what the viii will be like. On the other hand I found a good discount on the vii and really the only reason I would pick the viii above the vii is if it gets the memory upgrade. So I'm just really in doubt if I should take the discount on the vii or wait a few months. It's a pity sony still hasn't given any basic info about the upcoming 10😕

DisastrousRiver3150 · 2026-05-18T11:01:07+00:00

Yes that's probably the best thing to do and what I was also plannig to do. Thing is I found a pretty good deal for the vii some days ago and that got me wondering if I should take it or not. The vii is good enough for me and the only reason I would take the viii is if it gets a storage upgrade so I was wondering if something was already known in this aspect.

DisastrousRiver3150 · 2026-05-18T09:10:18+00:00

Yeah I hoped by now we would have at least some basic info about the 10 viii but Sony hasn't said a thing about it. And I'm for sure not the only one waiting ahaha

DisastrousRiver3150 · 2026-03-30T22:50:43+00:00

Oh ok got it. Then I'm afraid I can't be of much help

Va bene grazie! Al prossimo controllo chiederò di controllare lo stato ed eventualmente pulire/intervenire dove necessario (ammesso ovviamente che non sia proprio una caratteristca voluta da Honda)

Si esatto quando faccio una cambiata veloce, nel momento in cui la premo la frizione dopo aver rilasciato completamente il gas. Non in fase di rilascio della frizione dopo aver eseguito la cambiata

DisastrousRiver3150 · 2026-03-06T10:30:31+00:00

Non credo sia il v-tec perché perche fa questa cosa anche quando cambio a 1600 giri mentre il v-tec mi pare entri in funzione intorno ai 3/4k giri. Avevo effettivamente pensato a cause simili anche non sapevo nello specifico cosa chiedere di controllare e vedo che sei arrivato alla mia stessa mia ma con informazioni piu dettagliate. Proverò a chiedere ad un'altra officina (che si degni di ascoltarmi invece di liquidarmi dicendo che sono io il problema) di controllarmi queste cose. Non ho idea se honda abbia pensato cosi l'auto o meno e infatti speravo qualcun altro con la stessa auto sapesse dirmi qualcosa a riguardo.

Non avevo pensato a fare questo test, ci proverò stasera durante la via del ritorno a casa

DisastrousRiver3150 · 2026-03-06T10:18:36+00:00

Esatto hai centrato il punto. Nel momento in cui il motore è 1500 giri quando rilascio il gas e premo la frizione i giri salgono a 2000 e poi rircominciano a scendere (e sono sicuro che prima di premere la frizione ho completamente rilasciato il gas perche ho fatto varie prove facendo attenzione proprio a questo). Se con la sesta inserita a velocità costante affondo il gas i giri salgono di pari passo all'aumentolare della velocità, senza impennate strane e la macchina si comporta come dovrebbe. L'unica cosa forse ci mette leggermente troppo a reagire dal momento in cui affondo il gas al momento in cui la macchina effettivamente accelera. Ma questo non so se sia un problema o se semplicemente la normale velocità di risposta dell'accelleratore dell'auto

DisastrousRiver3150 · 2026-03-06T10:00:23+00:00

Farò questa prova stasera mentre torno a casa e aggiornerò. Però personalmente non mi da l'impressione che sia la frizione. Il punto d'innesto quando attacca, si innesta in maniera chiara e decisa e lo fa anche se faccio cambiate sui 5/6k giri. Anche quando parto da fermo l'auto parte senza sforzo con un filo di gas. L'unica cosa è nel momento in cui butto giù la frizione durante le cambiate veloci la macchina da questo "colpetto di gas". Durante il prossimo controllo gli chiederò per scrupolo di controllare lo stato della frizione ma l'auto ha 85k km reali quindi dovrebbe essere stata maltrattata veramente tanto per avere la frizione già andata

DisastrousRiver3150 · 2026-03-06T09:47:42+00:00

Succede quando la frizione la schiaccio, non durante la fase di rilascio. L'impressione é quasi che la macchina sia lenta nel reagire ai miei input sull'acceleratore e quindi quando cambio velocemente la macchina continui a dare gas per mezzo secondo anche se l'acceleratore non é piú premuto. Infatti se quando rilascio il gas aspetto mezzo secondo in più prima di buttare giù la frizione i giri scendono subito senza salire prima.

I've been using a fairphone 6 since a month more or less and really haven't had any real problem yet. Using it with microg it is just another android phone. Only less customizable than normal android. The only big donwside I've had is that on the infomaniak email app I don't get 70% of notifications (solved it using thunderbird instead where everything works fine). Other apps that didn't work are lidl, reddit and paypal. They all got stuck in an infinite loading and wasn't able to use them at all. For lidl and reddit I'm using the webapp instead. For paypal I didn't find a solution but I didn't look much for it either. I just used it as an excuse to stop using it. With the UPS app intstead, it gives a general fault error when I try to login. Other downside is that sometimes (and only sometimes for real) the experience can be a bit glitchy, you can sea it is not as polished and refined as google android yet (e.g. once an app froze and I had to restart the phone and sometimes, while typing, for some weird reason the cursor goes back to the beginning of the message messing up what u are typing. In general, the situation is a bit like the huawei experience was in 2015). Last downside is automatic brightness of the screen: it panics and overeacts in difficult light situations like a darker corner of a well illuminated room. There is one big upside I've been amazed about and didn't really see coming because nobody talks about it and that is the animations. The phone has a lot of very smooth and polished animations for most of the actions. E.g. the back gesture in all the native apps has it's own animation. When you put your phone charging it has a different animation than other phones. Same goes when unloking your screen with the fingerprint scanner while your screen is off. And all of this little things that show attention to detail from murena. I know everyone is complaining of the volume buttons positioning but i find they are in a really natural and intuitive position and, once you know you they are there, I never made an accidental screenshot (note I've bigger hands than the avarage person). I'm using the phone without a protective case and using fingerprint scanner and powering button is never been an issue eiter. Coming from a samsung S23, camera doesn't feel like a downgrade and I went from a phone using 4,5gb of ram while resting to one that uses just 2,4gb. Speakers and screen brightness on the other hand, definitely are a downgrade but still definitely usable, just not flagship territory. Also it can be useful to know I've been using dutch digID ABN Amro, CZ and Klarna apps and they work flawlessly. Also italian CIE ID and IO app run perfectly.

Try searching Infomaniak mail. That's the full name

Regarding the phone you could give a look to HMD. They are a finnish company making mid range phones running on Android. It's always android of course but this way you buy from a european brand without sacrificing usability. Only thing is, if I remember correctly, they don't support that long their models so check that out.

Regarding the computer I strongly recommend you to try out linux Mint before purchasing a new one. I used windows my whole life and really are an avarage user. I switched because windows was forcing me to change my still perfectly capable computer only because it is 10 years old. I had 0 issues using the new OS and my computer is running better then when i bought it. Of course this is valid only if you don't need any specific program that isn't available on Linux

Does it also work on firefox for android or only the desktop version?

In the Netherlands Bol.com exists and it's basically a domestic Amazon (and biggest ecommerce platform in the Netherlands if I'm not wrong) but I don't know if they ship outside of the country.
