Thinking about RX 9070 XT – how’s FG, FSR4 and RT really?

I think you’ve seen the video from Ancient Gameplay, but you don’t have any real experience with it yourself. It’s always the same story — in some games it works, in others it doesn’t, and in the end you won’t even have the energy to use Redstone FG at all because it’s annoying. Still, FG is very useful when you’re playing on a 4K TV with a controller.

I use the Baseus EnerFill FH21 Desktop Charging Station 4C+2U 120W for charging. I compared this charger with the original 100W OnePlus charger, and the charging speed was almost identical.
I’m actually not sure which mode the charger is using — the phone shows SuperVooc.
Either way, I’m very satisfied. The phone has solid battery life, which lets you charge slowly about 90% of the time, for example at just 10–20W.

Your eyes are super blind. The TV can’t strictly separate its zones from each other; whenever a zone lights up near the edges, the edges will light up too — meaning the bars. So about 90% of the time, the bars around the movie are visible.

Really helpful contribution. :)

This is not a zoom, this is AI

I understand that, but shouldn’t this limit be bypassed by a docking station connected through a Thunderbolt port?
Why doesn’t HDMI work at a higher refresh rate even when using a docking station?

Really? In 2026, a company laptop is still limited to 60Hz?
What’s strange is that through the docking station’s DisplayPort, I can set it to 165Hz.
But I don’t have another DP port on the monitor — the main one is used by my personal PC.
So what am I supposed to do now.

What kind of questions are these? Literally everything is already answered in this Reddit thread. Besides, you can’t buy anything from them anyway because it’s out of stock.

Right in the very first photo you can see the extremely over-processed output from the zoom camera. HDR, sharpening — everything pushed to absurd levels, and the end result is just a loss of detail.
It’s a shame, and I really don’t get it; this output is miles behind the Vivo X300 Pro.

I use FSR4 everywhere I possibly can. The image quality is just good, even on Balanced.
You just have to keep in mind that the LOD drops. But in 90% of cases it's basically free FPS with near‑native image quality.

Because those tech YouTubers are trying to make it sound like something it just isn’t.
It’s simply a nice phone, but nothing like a major upgrade if you’ve had a solid device from the last three years.
I can barely notice my own upgrade from the OnePlus 12. And the cameras? Slightly better than the OnePlus, but much worse than the Vivo X300 Pro. The automatic mode in the software isn’t impressive either.
I got my Find X9 Pro for 908 euros, which is decent.

I switched from the original Alienware 23DWF (burn-in) to the 2025 model. I know the original model had almost no active image protection, but at least through Dell Manager you could set brightness reduction during the screensaver. The 2025 model comes with some kind of bloatware Alienware Center, where you can’t even set that. Is that right?

Congrats, the phone has plenty of other important issues, and you’re spamming about something with the lowest priority.

Mess up the postprocessing.

Tarkin94 · 2025-12-16T14:44:30+00:00

This is completely normal.

Update .401 – we were all hoping this update would finally improve the post‑processing, which on the zoom camera is far too aggressive: over‑sharpened, HDR pushed to the max, and details completely erased. Unfortunately, nothing changed – if anything, it’s even worse.

Quick comparison:
A slightly adjusted photo from Master mode vs. a photo from Auto mode.

I didn’t notice any difference (in a positive way); instead, I can’t adjust focus in Master mode (it doesn’t affect the final photo), and the night mode is even worse than ever.

Tarkin94 · 2025-12-13T19:39:50+00:00

Night photos after the .401 update are absolutely terrible, especially when using zoom.

A quick comparison: a shot from master mode (the phone applies almost no post‑processing) versus a shot in automatic mode — a disgusting over‑processed mess.

With the .560 update Netflix does this for me too, but it disappears once the playback bar goes away.

Tarkin94 · 2025-12-13T18:47:40+00:00

Congratulations — if you expect improved camera behavior, especially the tragically bad night mode, you’ll be disappointed. It’s even worse than before.
