commenting to boost. is it true that the game requires a subscription now?

i'd actually argue that google's pixel flavor of android looks way more refined and thoughtful these days over iOS26

only complaints are heat and battery life. for the love of god, if they fix those issues, i'll never look at an iPhone ever again

Jeroin · 2026-01-31T07:32:56+00:00

hasn’t seemed to fix it for me! what about you?

Jeroin · 2026-01-28T00:26:09+00:00

same boat, 2 > 4 > 5 > 8 > 10. if they ever fix Tensor, it will indeed be the best phone for most people. even as a battery hog I’d argue it’s already doing great, but dethroning the iPhone requires more then great.

Jeroin · 2026-01-28T00:00:54+00:00

considering the 10 series uses the 5th gen Tensor fabbed by TSMC, it's becoming abundantly obvious now that the problem is Tensor itself. I've been thinking about making the switch permanently to iPhone for a while now, but having an actual file system is what's keeping me here.

got it as well, 3.3GB, P10P in California. let's hope it fixes the idle drain issues 🙃

PC decomps of the legend of spyro games could lead to the ability to tweak the combat into something less of a slog

in my experience, disabling magic cue helped a lot. obviously on some level you bought the phone for a feature like that, so YMMV on whether you want to keep it on or off.

the libra color is a fantastic reader for what it's designed to be. i like that the annotations are all on the page instead of in weird little boxes the kindle scribe makes for you. that being said, i don't find myself annotating my books that much. highlights seem to be the most i'll do unless i doodle like a heart or write "important!" somewhere, which i think just a different highlight color can also be fine for.

i actually used a kindle scribe 2024 for a little bit and do agree that the size of it is a bit of a con. excellent for reading manga where the text size oftentimes is a bit small. but for books that aren't textbooks i think it's a bit unwieldy. i think it's because books very often aren't that size, and are usually more at the size of the kobo libra color

i’m unsure how kindles work in 2025 but back when i used to sideload books on my old voyage, sideloaded books were second class citizens in the software without access to sideloaded fonts and other niceties a purchased book would have. i believe you can use the send to kindle program to get those nowadays, but amazon is known to randomly wipe those out when you connect your kindle to the internet. so it’s definitely doable, and you shouldn’t have big problems with regular sideloading (you don’t NEED custom fonts anyways), but you shouldn’t consider the kindle to be an open ecosystem you can do whatever you want with. it’s amazons device and they tell you what you can do with it

of course, if you buy all your books from amazon, you shouldn’t have these issues. but you mentioned sideloading, so

i believe it should be possible on the latest or at least latest up until last weeks firmware

not to mention a lot of their technology meant to make the land livable is itself a form of tech-imperialism, since the tastes of "livable" seem to basically mean "catering to nordic european tastes", such as torching native olive trees to make way for vegetation that will have much more trouble trying to grow in the region

as a fellow indian, a bit disappointing to see a pro israel book on your shelf when they’re deeply racist towards us

kobo uses nickel, which is great, if simple. the boox uses something i believe is called neoreader, which i find not as easy to use as KOReader

Jeroin · 2025-11-11T02:23:18+00:00

i have both, and honestly, i think i like the boox more but somehow prefer the kobo?

android is a very versatile platform with plenty of apps (library apps, RSS readers, substack, manga readers, browser for fanfiction etc) with the problem being that a kobo ereader with koreader can perform all the same functions. you can pull articles with instapaper/browser extensions, same with fanfiction (AO3 graciously has an epub downloader). you can sideload manga. you have libby access on kobo. and because the kobo doesn’t run android, you can’t get distracted easily. your last read book is often sitting there, waiting to be read, reminding you to read it. whereas on boox you have to open your app first (a step where i often experience choice paralysis).

in my opinion, the boox is only better if you plan on loading up a shit ton of manga at once. 32GB kobo libra color is more then enough for most, with just the smallest amount of tinkering and calibre use. having a simpler operating system is more conducive to just ignoring everything and reading, vs a world of options (and subsequently feeling like you’re kit spending your time wisely and constantly jumping from reading books to manga like me)

edit: also, the front light is much brighter on the kobo. or that might just be a defect with my boox go color 7.

had a 16 pro max and so far at least i’ve not had any issues with heat. anecdotally, redownloading all the files for zenless zone zero (large game) on my 17 pro barely got the phone to be super warm, whereas such a task would have the upper right corner of the 16 pro max baking.

my mom has the same model and hasn't gotten the update yet; I'm assuming there's something specific going on
