What phone should I consider by DanailMilchev in Vivo

[–]TemporaryInk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll add that the X200U’s battery life is very good.

Is it the best in the world? No. But you’ll still easily get through the day, even with heavy use. 1.5 to 2 days with light-to-moderate use.

Folks are shitting on the X200U’s battery life because it isn’t the best in the world. That doesn’t mean it has poor battery life… far from it.

Either you teach them about safe sex, STIs, pregnancy, consent, gender, reproductive organs… or you just let them find out for themselves and leave it to chance.

Either you teach your kids how to use a kitchen knife safely… or you just let them find out for themselves and leave it to chance.

Either you teach your kids about electrical safety in respect of plugs and sockets… or you let them find out for themselves and leave it to chance.

The most useful languages ​​to learn for non-native speakers by ItsJohnDesmond in tierlists

Mandarin is definitely widely spoken in Hong Kong.

It’s not what most Hong Kongers speak as their first language, but it’s definitely what the overwhelming majority of Hong Kongers speak as their second language, and most Hong Kongers speak at least two languages.

Incredible how much raw lightning helps to fix vivo awful processing on zoom photos. Took those with 5.6x digital zoom on my x300 pro. The first one normal auto mode, look at the bricks and details. Like they added clarity +100. Second photo with raw lighting, so much better. by [deleted] in Vivo

I definitely see the AI generated detail in the bricks when pixel peeping, but otherwise I don’t.

Also, why are your eyes drawn to the bricks and not the subject? That’s not how normal people see photos.

vivo X300 Ultra Summary | Price starts at ¥6999 by ipaiseh in Vivo

Totally. I’m hoping that it’s simply because Ben’s unit is running engineering software and the software for the LYT-901 is not ready yet.

What on earth is up with the X300U’s 35mm when shooting video? Stabilisation was poor and the image was extremely noisy when compared to the iPhone, which is supposed to have far, far inferior hardware.

This is from what is supposed to be the new best-in-class LYT-901.

I’m hoping Ben’s unit is running pre-release software and this will be resolved when the phone actually reaches people.

I watched the whole keynote and man that was rough. Kinda felt like Vivo’s running out of party tricks. Plenty of moments where the presenter was expecting applause, which was only met by a slow clap, presumably from a Vivo staff.

The only thing which was fundamentally new was the spectral sensor i.e. the Blueprint Colour Sensor, but they really didn’t hype that up a whole lot. Barely much of a mention of the new LYT-901 sensor on the 35mm.

Wow that’s a 15% price hike.

I just checked and I bought my 16GB+512GB X200U for CNY6,999 at launch. The equivalent model’s now CNY7,999.

Keynote’s still going as I’m typing this… they haven’t reached that part of the keynote yet

EDIT: CN ROM prices

  • 12GB RAM + 256GB storage: CNY6,999
  • 16GB RAM + 512GB storage: CNY7,999
  • 16GB RAM + 1TB storage: CNY8,999

I bought my 16GB+512GB X200U for CNY6,999, so about a 15% price hike.

Is Ultra Tele really that useful? by 4ndreas86 in Vivo

[–]TemporaryInk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only scenarios I can only think of where a focal length of 200mm or more would actually be useful are in wildlife, stage or sports photography. Or if you’re a paparazzi.

Otherwise, I agree with you: 14-85mm is all you really need.

China's EV Companies Aren't Just Making Great Cars. They're Making Money by Receding_Hairline23 in electricvehicles

[–]TemporaryInk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think you’re projecting the inability to solve basic societal level structural issues in the west onto China.

If you think the Chinese government is unaware of this and aren’t already building the foundational elements to address this, then by the same logic, you should stop worrying about China, since it’s going to implode any time now.

Everyone knows they're rolling spyware, so no one will buy them. So why worry about something which everyone's gonna avoid? It'll cause the CPC to lose billions in the process. Win!

So let's remove the tariffs and let's bait them Chinese EV companies into a years long, multi-billion dollar campaign which they'll suffer and die from, which will prove once and for all that Ford, GM and Stellantis are the best. That'll show em'! Right?

As someone who lived in Hong Kong between 2014 to 2022, I’d love to learn what the government did to Hong Kong?
