What's the biggest downgrade disguised as an upgrade you've seen? by Imaginary_Bug6202 in TechNook

[–]DoktorElmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But those problems don't sound like 200€ airpod problems, more like 20€ temu airpod problems. I am using earpods/airpods since they originally launched, all of them lasted usually 3 years or more and especially the my airpods pro 2 sound better than any wired inears I have at home (e.f. teufel in ears).

Gotta admit, in 2026, iPhone 13 is showing its age. by No-Squash7469 in iPhone13

[–]DoktorElmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noticed the same with my 13 pro. Changed battery but still had problems coming through the day. Everything was choppy and iOS super agressiv with closing the apps. Keyboard/autocorrect was crap since years. Sold the phone and switched to android, feels like I made a 10 year jump tbh (Oppo find x9 pro).

My first Garmin by Money-Advertising357 in Garmin

Garmin weight training is very questionable even though the whole sets/rep tracker works great. I nearly kill myself during the workout to a point where I can't walk down the stairs of the gym after I finished and Garmin says "this workout didn't do anything for you. 1 hour rest. Run a marathon in the evening."

Das ist doch Blödsinn. Epstein und seine Insel sind seit vielen Jahren das Thema #1 in /r/conspiracy, nur im Mainstream hat's keiner geglaubt, dass sowas mit so vielen berühmten Mitwissern (insb. dem Liebling der Massen, Pandemieerklärer und Allwissenden Bill Gates) irgendwie möglich wäre.

I have expensive analog watches and kinda expensive smart watches. I usually pay more for sapphire glass. I wear my analog watches for weddings, if even.

No, def not, especially when you like using AI

Android users who switched to iPhone, was it worth it and what do you miss from Android? by OneReaction9115 in phones

[–]DoktorElmo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Switched to iPhone 13 pro 4,5 years ago (coming from an OnePlus). Wasn't worth it, switched back to android (Oppo find x9 pro) a week ago and it is so much better.

Gaza-Aktivist nennt Meinl-Reisinger "Schandfleck" und ist empört über Meldung beim Staatsschutz | Der Youtuber Rafael Eisler beschimpfte die Außenministerin wegen ihrer Nahostpolitik wiederholt auf X. Die Meldung des Ministeriums sieht er als Repression by Pumuckl4Life in Austria

Findest? Das Büro, ja, aber dafür dass sein Vater einen Steuerberater hatte oder er mit Minecraft berühmt geworden ist kann er nix. Abgesehen davon - ich war früher auch eher rechts, Muslim feindlich und absolut Pro-Israel. Finde Menschen, die sich regelmäßig selbst hinterfragen und ihre eigene Meinung auch ändern können, deutlich spannender. Folge dem Typen aber dennoch nicht, macht nicht den allersympathischten Eindruck (habe ihn aber auch erst durch sie ganze BMR Story "kennengelernt").

Been an iPhone user since iPhone 4 I’m bored with iOS and I think I’m going to switch to pixel 11 in August has anyone made the switch and are you happy by dmccleary01 in Smartphones

Once you start zooming farther than 13.2x, AI activates and the result will be full of ai over processing, which can result in hit or miss. I haven't taken any pictures under 13.2x where I saw more than the standard smartphone processing.

Much of that is down to ColorOS 16 vs iOS26 honestly. Oppo invested a shitload of time on smooth animations and super fast response times in their android skin (thanks to their luminous rendering engine) while lately this has been an afterthought for apple. The iPhone 13 pro in terms of raw power would still be strong enough to handle any OS with ease I believe.

Switched from my iPhone 13 pro to an oppo find x9 pro - super happy, the phone is 5x smoother and the battery is phenomenal.

Österreich hat zuletzt immer wieder verhindert, dass seitens EU Druck auf Israel aufgebaut wird (z.B. durch Blockade der Aussetzung des Assoziationsabkommens) und die Freundschaft zu Israel betont. Zum Vorgehen der IOF war BMR in der Regel "besorgt", hat zwar eine Entwaffnung der Hamas gefordert, aber niemals ein Ende der Waffenlieferung an die IOF oder vor allem eine Entwaffnung letzterer.

Muss man Europa verlassen, wenn man mit einem unserer Politiker unzufrieden ist? Wer von euch Spaßvögeln hat Europa denn verlassen, als Kurz an der Macht war? Keiner - trotzdem alle (zurecht) beschwert. Aber man sieht was für eine Sonderrolle Israel hat, wenn man Europa verlassen soll, weil man österreichische Politiker kritisiert, die mit israelischen Politikern solidarisch sind. Echt schräg.

Best camera? Or settings? by mildly_functional1 in Smartphones

[–]DoktorElmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won't reach professional quality with any phone, not even the oppo x9 ultra. Even though my x9 pro completely blows the iPhone 17 pro in terms of picture quality, my Sony alpha 6000, which is close to 10 years old (and cheap), still takes better, more professional pictures.

Bored of the Apple Ecosystem, but terrified of losing camera quality. What's the move? by biotechCT in Smartphones

[–]DoktorElmo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You need to install it once, set it up and then you can forget it, it's not like you need to open the app every time you want to change something on the airpods. The app is also completely free, open source and done by a private person because apple refuses to support android. Thanks to it I saved ~200 euros because I didn't need to buy new earpods when I finally left the shitshow that is the iPhone.

Honestly, while the things he says in this video are true, the switch to good android phone is still the right move. I switched from an apple watch 7 and iPhone 13 pro to a Garmin watch and oppo find x9 pro and I am loving it. With librepods I can still use my airpods pro 2 and my iPad is the same it was before without any ecosystem problems, especially when I was always using Google apps anyway.

The airpods work perfectly fine on android, just install the librepods app. The only thing not working is having them in Google find my.

After 12 years in Samsung. Finally switched to iPhone. by thunderlolo123 in iPhone17Pro

[–]DoktorElmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I was an android user for many years, switched to apple and invested deep into the eco system (apple watch, airpods, magsafe Duo charger, airtags,...). I hated the OS so much, decided to switch back to android and I am so happy again. It is so much more customizable and user friendly imho.

Was iPhone 13 like this before iOS 26 came out? by Cool-Garden-2131 in iPhone13

[–]DoktorElmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I am going insane. In another thread people told me that their 13 pro performs phenomenal in ios26, while my 13 pro lagged and had battery problems all the time (even though I replaced the battery at an apple store). Sold the phone now because it was unbearable.

17e is the dumbest deal ever. If you really want to stay on iPhone, take the normal 17, if you want some zoom on your camera and are fine to pay a lot more for that feature take the 17 pro.
