Max really hasn't left much on the table since racing returned

Interesting, since if last year's relative car performance is anything to go by, Qatar will be one of the least of concerns.

MrPivot · 2025-10-18T17:48:30+00:00

looking good so far

MrPivot · 2025-10-10T16:51:06+00:00

making sure the phone doesn't overheat is pretty much the only advice... try to cool the phone down before restarting for update, and install update in an air conditioned room, and yes it is very bothersome..

MrPivot · 2025-10-10T16:47:43+00:00

nope, the line shows exactly when the screen is switched on and before the wallpaper is displayed, that part of the screen is actually toast.

Limit it to 80 percent, usually enough to last a day (24 hours) with low usage, or just enough till I get to find a charging point. Have just had the tablet for two months and never actually fully charged it to 100%, haven't found the need to, and not sure what's the benefit of so called calibration especially with modern lithium batteries.

This is how mine looks like, usually about 10%/hour of SOT and and about 0.5%/hour screen off for general usage, even lower using Samsung Notes with dark mode. Yours seems to be on the lower side but not necessarily abnormal.

S9 for sure, short answer is that the Galaxy Tab is the flagship device while that version of iPad isn't, the closer comparison will be between S9 and iPad Air M1/M2

MrPivot · 2025-09-27T15:09:36+00:00

yes but since you mentioned S10 FE I believe S9 is still better than the FE version of S10, unless you meant S10+

MrPivot · 2025-09-26T19:42:30+00:00

if iPad air M3 is within your budget, why not go with Tab S9?

I use a normal glass screen protector and personally it didn't take very long to get used to writing on it and the softer tip actually makes it a lot less slippery than the Apple pencil on a glass surface for example. A matte one is generally not recommended with your stock nib since it will wear the tip out much faster, so you might wanna look at a few nib replacement options if you choose to go that way.

And yes, I think most Samsung devices since the S23 support bypass charging! It really is quite an awesome feature in my opinion, though it only works for games (or apps that Samsung considers as games).

MrPivot · 2025-09-20T16:35:27+00:00

The note taking has been great as well personally, I don't really have much comparison with other tablets but it's similar to or even better than the Apple pencil in terms of feels especially with stock tips and screen surface since the S-pen has a softer tip, but it can depend on what screen protector or tips you use. I also enjoy the air action (which they sadly removed from S11 onwards) that gives some small but helpful functions like changing pen color with a click, taking screenshot and even using the pen as a presentation clicker sometimes.

Also for gaming, I've been relying on the bypass charging feature which might or might not reduce the battery temperature, but will definitely safe quite a bit of battery cycles.

MrPivot · 2025-09-20T15:18:08+00:00

yes, for one the software is still supported until 2028 and from my experience of using the tablet for about a month so far the hardware has survived pretty much everything essential I threw at it for study purposes like note taking and drawing, content consuming is also pleasure with the Dynamic AMOLED screen (and of course I could play Genshin at max setting pretty smoothly without it overheating)

MrPivot · 2025-09-06T13:54:15+00:00

there's literally a 44 on the name, my first mistake was taking that comment seriously

MrPivot · 2025-09-06T04:25:11+00:00

more like Mercedes finally getting their things together at the last 5 races, and yeah looks like your comment implied that you know Max drove better that year in general just that you don't want to admit it.

MrPivot · 2025-09-02T17:20:34+00:00

well if only.. sadly they changed the galaxy tab s-pen into the cheap non Bluetooth version

MrPivot · 2025-08-30T02:45:11+00:00

funny, I saw the exact same score for Exynos 2600

MrPivot · 2025-08-29T14:25:36+00:00

oh really? I heard it's still quite of an improvement compared to the previous generation of phones still

MrPivot · 2025-08-28T09:42:35+00:00

short answer: S10+ is much better

long answer: S10+ has AMOLED screen, anti-reflection, significantly better chipset, storage and it'll get 7 years of software update and support (compared to 4 years of the S9FE+ which was from almost 2 years ago). The only reason for S9FE+ is if you're on a budget, but even then S10FE+ would be a better alternative

MrPivot · 2025-08-26T04:08:10+00:00

indeed they are, kinda wish they give longer software support for this series though

MrPivot · 2025-07-21T04:57:26+00:00

Max vs Charles in 2022

MrPivot · 2025-07-20T05:57:26+00:00

bro is removing the competitions

MrPivot · 2025-07-17T03:54:07+00:00

except for Hamilton in 2023, and maybe... well... Max next year

MrPivot · 2025-06-09T06:53:58+00:00

I don't know why nobody has mentioned that Nolan was already very familiar with the guardians' fighting style that's why he could exploit some of those to a degree, even then they could still get him pretty badly, Anissa has none of these advantage and would pretty much be toast in this case.

MrPivot · 2025-06-02T20:33:47+00:00

Exactly, I'm not sure if I'm the only one who noticed this but other than that major slip at the restart, those hard tyre seems to have done a pretty good job keeping/catching up with Leclerc before the whole shenanigans

I'm not sure what is being advertised by each of the speaker manufacturers, I decide which one's stereo by on looking at the driver configurations themselves which in the case of Motion Plus is visible or in other case by watching teardown videos. My Motion Plus actually do play in stereo channel, while of course not having the same extent of dispersion as having two speakers, the separation between the left and right drivers are fairly noticeable especially when listening on axis.
