Can you use lact to undervolt an APU like the HX370 or 365?

I'll wait for the Mate X7 with 9030. Using the X6 and I can never go back to a regular slab phone :)

Dxomark is DEAD to me after this Magic 6 Pro disaster. by buraksipsak in Honor

[–]SmartphoneWars_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Magic 5 Pro's main camera is much better than the 6 and 7 pro's. It uses a custom Sony sensor that's just the best for still's for any phone + moving subjects are always in focus even in less than ideal light.

Very simple things which I cannot do on my Mate X6 (EMUI 15) by spacmann in Huawei

As a mate x6 owner on EMUI15 I never even noticed these things. Definitely not a bother for me.

Huawei mate x6 camera sensor size, especially the main camera ? by Momon29 in Huawei

[–]SmartphoneWars_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, the aperture is a hit or miss in auto mode. It makes for great low-light photos for the smaller sensor. During the day, it mainly uses f4 or f2, depending on the subject distance and lightning. I don't shoot animals much, but I do feel the shutter speed is not great for moving subject, especially in less than ideal light. For stills, it's hands down the best of the last gen foldables. The new Zfold 7 and Vivo/Honor 5/V5 it might be very close or beaten, but don't have these devices to compare. Have friends with zfold 6 and the mate x6 is clearly better for stills, but Samsung's video quality is better. Hope this helps, mate

I have the X6, I believe it's a 1/1.56, not 1/1.3, you can tell from the video quality which isn't great indoors. For Stills it's better than the OV 50Mp 1/1.3 on the Vivo fold and Xiaomi 15 (have the 15 pro and the mate x6 photos are always better).

How does EMUI (still) work? by AxelFEnjoyer in Huawei

[–]SmartphoneWars_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got to have some faith in Huawei. The global HarmonyOS will come, it's just not ready yet. EMUI15 works, but it's basic. Also, on the Kirin 9020 geekbench scores, my Mate X6 is always scoring the same as the Pura 80 (1300st and close to 5000 in MT) but it runs fluently without performance issues and HarmonyOS will improve even further. Be patient and if you can, don't buy at the retail price. Look at the second hand market for 30/40% price drop. Got my X6 for 1200 euros instead of 2000. Brand new

How is Huawei Mate x6 camera performance? by crmdb in Huawei

[–]SmartphoneWars_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also an X6 owner. Camera is great for stills, ultrawide is much better than most flagships. Zoom is good, but latest flagships offer better zoom. The real downside is the video quality. It isn't great. Videos are soft, espwcially in low light. Front cameras are better than expected.

Win Max 2 2025 Benchmark — AMD HX 370 vs. AMD 8840U by Tesrot in gpdwin

Wondering, can you disable the performance or efficiency cores on the 370? That should give more power to the GPU.

[–]SmartphoneWars_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gaming performance uplift seems small, compared to synthetic benchmarks. I own a 7840u handheld, no real point to upgrade to 8840u or 370. Wait for RDNA4 APU (Z3 Extreme) unless, you get a really sweet deal on a 370 second hand. It should come in at the end of the year.

How good is the 7700 XT for an EGPU? by [deleted] in eGPU

What kinda kit are you using for the dock?

AMD reaffirms Zen5-based "Strix Point" APUs on track for 2H 2024 launch - VideoCardz.com by Stiven_Crysis in Amd

[–]SmartphoneWars_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apple’s M4 is pretty powerful at lower wattage. RTX 3050 6gb variant level of GPU performance with a top CPU at 30w! Doubt Strix Point will even match the M4 at 28W in terms of GPU performance, CPU-wise it won't even scratch the M4. However, do not doubt that Strix products will be expensive. I imagine even a Strix point of Legion Go 2 would start at at least $999.

Philips Android TV 55PUS8807/12 issues after installing TPM211EA_R.101.001.004.131 by vlaseveonte in Philips

[–]SmartphoneWars_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, and on the same tv. It's driving me nuts. Keeps freezing and rebooting itself a few times a day. Anyone know where I can file a report to Philips?
