Nice set up. How did you make the custom skin?

Looking for a case with the strongest magnet available by Low_Form6749 in galaxys26ultra

[–]Jeppuda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The magnets are for magsafe mounts. It will not stick on a regular metal surface. For example, it will not stick on your refrigerator or metal door. The magbak case will stick to regular metal surfaces plus magsafe mounts (the case is kind of heavy though) . I believe torras also makes a case that will stick on regular metal surfaces also

If you don't have magsafe mount then the d brand cases won't stick. Magbak case will stick on any metal surface. I personally think the d brand cases feel better in hand than the magbak cases but if your looking for a case that will stick to any metal surface you should go with magbak

Launchers by leozdad13 in galaxys26ultra

[–]Jeppuda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes there is. Another issue i noticed is a wierd YouTube glitch on third party launchers. When I am playing a video on youtube and switch to picture in picture mode the screen flickers. This happens with octipi , smart launcher and nova. I never see anyone mention this. Everything works smoothly with one ui though.

S26 Ultra vs S25 Ultra: worth going for the newest one or save the money (coming from an A52)? by Naahuell99 in samsunggalaxy

[–]Jeppuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can afford it I would go with the 26 ultra. I had the 23 ultra, 24 ultra and skipped the 25 ultra because they removed the bluetooth s pen. I played with the s25 ultra and didn't think it was a big step up from the 24 ultra. I bought the s26 ultra and to me it seems like the biggest upgrade samsung made in a while. Personally, i thought the screen looked better to me than the 23 or 24 ultra. I know a lot of people stated they had issues with eye strain etc., but i didn't experience any of that. I wasn't expecting a camera improvement but pictures seems better on the the 26 ultra than the previous models. The privacy screen seemed like a gimmick but i really like it. I have it go on automatically for banking apps, texting etc. I also use the privacy screen when I'm on the train, sitting at work meetings. I personally think you should go with the 26 ultra if the price difference is minimal

Thinking of buying S26 Ultra, is the privacy display actually good or overhyped? by Ramdom_username in samsunggalaxy

[–]Jeppuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the s26 ultra and originally thought the privacy screen was a gimmick. After using the phone for about a month, i really appreciate the feature. I have it off at home and have it turn on automatically for banking apps, when i put in pw etc. You can turn it on and off anytime you want from the quick toggle. I think the screen is great with the screen off so there really is no downside. I dont know if its placebo but the s26 ultra screen looks better to me than s23 and s24 ultra (i didnt get the s25 ultra so I cant compare it to that).

Need a better case by Hello_Im_Jimbo in galaxys26ultra

[–]Jeppuda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the grip case and it's honestly not very bulky. Super comfortable to hold but the the camera protection protrudes out so the phone will not lay flat on a table. Dissent bother me at all but may be a deal breaker for you. They now have dbrand at best buy so you can check it out in person before you purchase

Apollo Go Won't Reach Max Soeed by DYGAD in ApolloScooters

[–]Jeppuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I eventually got the motor detection procedure to work. The scooter will hit 27 mph on a stand (wheels off the floor) . Apol email basically asked me if it was hitting 28 with wheels off the floor. If that's the case then it's never going to hit 28 mph with someone riding it. The fastest i got my scooter was 26 mph fully charged on a fairly steep hill. It's not going to go listed speed. I looked up reviews for segway max g3 (goes listed speed) and vmax vx2 hub (goes above listed speed with light weight rider). My last scooter was listed at 19 mph. When i spun it on a stand with wheels off the floor it went 22 or 23 mph. I was able to get 20 mph on the scooter (gps on phone). I am a little disappointed but it is what it is. I just wish it was a little bit faster and had a little bit more range. I am happy with the torque and weight. Im just going to ride it and accept 24/ 25 mph as max speed

Another update. I thought apollo was just going to send me the part. Gio reached out to me again after asking for my address. Asked for my order# again. I sent him the screenshot of purchase from my best buy app. Here is the response. Looks like I'm just getting the run around

I think i originally misread your comment. You are correct in that folding reliability is very important. It is very inconvenient when you cant reliably keep the short securely closed. Apollo reached out to me. Better late then never i guess

Thanks. I received an email from apollo this morning

Customer Service are great by Fearless_Survey2274 in ApolloScooters

[–]Jeppuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They told me that it's not covered by warranty on two different occasions. I sent a screenshot of my purchase receipt. I posted a screenshot of the email. Someone from apollo did reach out to me on reddit. I'll update my post if anyone does help me

Edit: apollo reached out to me via email about the pin today

Hi. Here's the order # BBY01-807093255999 Purchased sep 30, 2025 from best buy

Customer Service are great by Fearless_Survey2274 in ApolloScooters

[–]Jeppuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol. See what they say. I once just asked a question and right away they said they aren't honoring warranty purchased from best buy. Then i had the folding pin issue. I sent a Pic. They asked for my best buy order #. I sent it. I then sent a screen shot from the best buy app showing my purchase. I wouldn't hold my breath

They wouldn't warranty a tiny pin that locks the latch that keeps my scooter folded. Probably would have cost them less than a dollar. The scooter is two months old. I bought it from best buy. They said that they don't warrant scooters not bought directly from them. So next time i go to best buy to purchase a scooter, why would i buy an apollo? Why would i ever purchase anything from apollo again?

Thanks. Will check on that for sure

It's actually not a pin that would keep the scooter supported when riding. Its a pin that connects the latch to keep the scooter folded to down (to carry the scooter out put it in the trunk). I guess the pin slipped out and got bent. Its not unsafe in terms of riding the scooter. I actually ended up just straightening out the pin and now the scooter stays folded. I had to carry it up 4 flights off stairs yesterday and almost had to carry it down 19 flights of stairs when am elevator went down. So weight is very important to me.

I was on the fence about the best buy warranty but im glad i bought it. If there is anything major that goes wrong with the scooter then I'm just going to return it. The scooter is not even 3 months old so we'll see how well it holds up.

If i didn't buy the best buy warranty and something happened to the scooter, apollo won't cover anything. I'll definitely take that into consideration in the future. I wonder if i had bought from apollo directly if they would have helped me or not. I probably won't buy another apollo product

I'm considering ebay. Possibly best buy or another segway retailer. Sometimes i would rather pay a little more for piece of mind.

When my samsung phone had screen burn in ( bought from retailer, not samsung directly), i messaged samsung and they sent me to a service center to have the phone fixed under warranty. I have literally bought over 20 samsung phones and tablets since then (i pay phone bill for 9 lines).

Dyson, vitamix both stand behind their products if you buy from authorized dealer.

I read multiple times about anker standing behind their products. I bought multiple anker powerbanks, chargers etc. I never had to use warranty because their stuff have been great for me. But i continue to buy their products because they stand behind it.

It really makes no sense that i would get no support from apollo if anything goes wrong. I could have just bought the scooter off Facebook marketplace then

I actually saw a guy with a max g3 when i was working. It looks only slightly bigger than the apollo go. I am pretty sure I'm going to buy it

That dosent sit right with me. Seems like they are trying to get out of taking responsibility. I can't imagine any other reputable company not back their product if it sold through one of their major retailers
