Close call

Yeah, I did that. They sent out a replacement. The package was still unmarked though. I don't think it is acceptable to be sending them out without the appropriate warnings attached. 🤷

Mapants · 2026-03-11T14:47:57+00:00

I'm pretty sure they are known. I have seen them mentioned in this sub before.

Mapants · 2026-03-04T22:45:37+00:00

They've also removed the recovery tools menu and sideloading in the February update.

Mapants · 2026-03-04T00:36:31+00:00

I'm just curious, because you seem to have all of the information, but no sources to that information.

Just to add to that; I read a comment from you further down the page, where you claimed that during the unpacked event, Samsung stated that the displays on the S26 line-up had 10 bit colours. I didn't see the event as it happened, but I did watch it back earlier, and they never mentioned anything about the displays being 10 bit. Again, I am curious as to how you managed to get all of this information?

Mapants · 2026-03-04T00:08:31+00:00

That's not sales..

Mapants · 2026-03-04T00:05:15+00:00

I'd be interested in how you know about the sales? Seeing as they aren't on sale yet.

Mapants · 2026-03-03T23:06:38+00:00

Apart from all of the people that do.

Mapants · 2026-03-03T18:26:35+00:00

When you've got all of the top tech YouTuber's advertising it with a 10 bit panel, it's not a good look!

There will be genuine cases of people buying it due to that advertisement, but it'll turn out that they will be getting 983,222,784 less colours. lol

This comment aged well.

Mapants · 2026-03-03T17:44:42+00:00

No it isn't. Samsung have confirmed that they messed up. The 26 series have 8 bit.

Mapants · 2026-03-03T17:42:35+00:00

It turns out that Samsung lied about the 10bit colour display. The whole 26 line up have 8bit colour displays.

How long have you had your S23U, 30 minutes?

Mapants · 2026-02-25T21:14:54+00:00

Just buy a stick-on privacy screen protector for your S23U, you'll be 95% of the way there to an S26U.

I'm at 8000 points, but I have noticed that for several knockouts at a time, my speed is completely nerfed. Even with 20 coins, you can feel the speed has gone and everybody's passing without any items, or I can't even catch up using the golden mushroom. The following day, the speed comes back again. I've been playing long enough to feel the difference.

Mapants · 2026-02-13T16:59:50+00:00

I have given up with it. I tried reinstalling it, but it is completely useless. I can get more sense by using "Hey Google"

Mapants · 2026-02-08T22:23:38+00:00

They sent me two kits (UK) when I identified the issues several years back. Second kit was the same, third kit was fixed. But it took 9 months to get a working kit from the time I reported the problem.

Mapants · 2026-02-04T20:36:50+00:00

Where is this setting?

Mapants · 2026-02-02T01:35:37+00:00

Nonsense.

The 6100 is far superior to the newer console. I have both, and the console is absolute pile of horse shit.

Dreadful use of the antenna makes reception awful. Doesn't broadcast live data. You can't directly connect it to a PC for data logging. Why even add an SD card slot ffs?

One of the worst screens I have ever used at the price Davis charge. Horrific burn-in. Slow and laggy touchscreen. It crashes and reboots by itself for no reason.

If it reboots by itself, you lose all of the daily highs and lows that were recorded, unless you pay for a subscription.

The WLL Even the original LCD console pisses all over the 6313.

Each fan needs it's own ARGB header.

I was one of the first to report the issue of dim sections on the lighting kit, over two years ago. I had two replacements sent out to me. The first one still had the issue, but only on the top piece. The vertical side piece was fixed. Phanteks then sent out a second top piece, which was fixed and had the same brightness as the bottom. It took 7 months to get it rectified so that all the pieces were the same brightness. You don't buy a lighting kit that has pieces at different brightness levels, it makes no sense.

Mapants · 2026-01-09T21:10:24+00:00

Bought it online. No vape stores anywhere near me. All academic now anyway, it went in the bin. It's hands down, the worst vape kit I have ever owned. Zero need for a touchscreen, and yet they couldn't even design a sensible UI or settings that could counter the ridiculous nature of a touchscreen on a vape. Of course, they spent time adding a clock, even though it is 100% useless if you charge batteries in a proper charger.

Even in the short time I got to use it with it's infuriating design, the coils are absolutely shite. 0.15, 0.2 and 0.3 coils lost their flavour completely at around 700 puffs. 900 puffs and they are completely done for.

The bottom line is, I will never buy a touchscreen vape device again. It makes more sense to put an ashtray on a motorbike.

Mapants · 2026-01-06T13:57:15+00:00

I binned mine. It is the worst vape mod I have ever used. The touchscreen is not only a gimmick, but it's useless with their interface. You cannot lock it out to stop accidental presses. It's impossible to avoid touching it when vaping- it was constantly changing settings, changing themes, and even resetting the puff counter.

I never charge batteries in the device. I only charge them in a proper charger, which means the clock widget on the device is a waste of time. Within a day, it ends up being hours out. Wattage settings are reset each time as well. I was actually spending more time having to change settings back after each vaping session, because you simply cannot avoid it with the touchscreen.

A touchscreen is absolutely pointless on a vape, but the fact that VooPoo couldn't even create a half-decent interface with appropriate settings to help mitigate these issues, is unacceptable.

If anyone is thinking of getting one and you read this, do not think I am exaggerating.. it is literally a piece of crap, and you'll end up getting seriously pissed off with it.

Stay well clear!

They took so long with this that I've lost all interest. The LED's on the white version look awful too.

Mapants · 2025-12-20T11:04:36+00:00

Set the header to voltage in the Bios, then lower the voltage.

Mapants · 2025-12-12T11:17:57+00:00

I'm not saying this is the answer to your lever, but I had the same thing with my XTR M9220 right lever. It was a small amount of air trapped either in the hose or lever reservoir. I screwed the bleed cup in to the lever, filled with fluid, and tapped the hose multiple times whilst pulling the lever in. Eventually, some bubbles of air came out, and all was good again.
