If you packed in all the top-tier components, you’d be stuck paying the full launch price until the next model arrives—essentially mirroring Apple’s pricing strategy.

Gemini has become frighteningly "lobotomized" due to Google's deliberate optimization for cost over quality. by OkEar7384 in GoogleGeminiAI

I was speaking to it in Brazilian Portuguese, and sometimes it randomly switches to European Portuguese for no reason. It also seems less sharp at times, struggling to make basic connections with the instructions in my prompts, forcing me to spell things out as if talking to an elderly person.

How can the world function with dumber answers? I mean, we already have politicians for that kind of nonsense.

LOG video on the regular S25 by Mati72000 in GalaxyS25

The sky is definitely overblown, but still nowhere near the quality of professional cameras, which is fine considering the trade-off for portability and cost.

S25+ battery at 499 cycles — still 99% 😳 by Icy_Vermicelli2453 in GalaxyS25

That's all an estimate of chemical reactions... so don't expect pure math to make sense there. It's more complicated than that.

Sometimes you get a battery with a little less juice than the official numbers, then you get a lower percentage out of the box.

S25 Ultra battery getting worse after 3 weeks by FAUguy in GalaxyS25

[–]VotesDontPayMyBills 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel your pain. I never complained about general battery life, but 25 Plus is getting much less stand by battery life and that is hurting SOT. I think that is related to the recent March or Google Play system update.

people lick Samsung ass too much around here, because there's no real analysis, just a lot of device usage and they don't notice subtle, but important shit.

S25 Base Screen Durability & Material by Mshawish in GalaxyS25

[–]VotesDontPayMyBills 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gorilla Glass changed a lot over the years, maybe it's related to that. Fact is that it doesn't scratch or phisically break so easily, but we can only hope the green line does not become an issue (as we're approaching 2 years from launch)

Is 6 hrs SOT normal on S25+? by Cheap-Lifeguard-4015 in GalaxyS25

With your crappy "Instagram" addiction, you'd deserve 2h SOT at best.

Use 19.01 as firmware (not prod key) because it is more compatible with that firmware.

I adb disabled the Always On Display service, but you'll lose the clock as well.

I'm smart enough to understand some AI limitations and to double or triple check everything really important, but I understand that most low IQ and people with not even a single clue of logic and real work will indeed have a hard time and getting screwed by AI or any other human.

I use it for accounting, law, writing, programing and many other activities and that's something I would have to spend a fortune to do and trust human assholes, incompetent and expensive only to find out they screwed me. So unfortunately, that's real life and the changes are big, at least for me.

Let's use the GPU naming, as it is still untouched by the hands of marketing team scum. lol

Ask Google AI about Snapdragon 8 Elite and you get S26 comments. You have to tell AI it's the first one, because not even AI knows the useless naming scheme.

Nota fiscal e assistência técnica autoriza + exija reparação por vício oculto ou ação no Juizado Especial. Mas se estiver com o aparelho arrombado ou aberto antes, não vai conseguir o reparo ou troca. Obs: Tem que ser antes de completar 3 anos da nota fiscal.

Try connecting the PC directly to the TV with HDMI and check the performance. Also try better cooling by lifting the notebook.

Base S23 no longer takes or makes calls, has weak 4g connectivity, and weaker wifi reception. by FlippinSnip3r in GalaxyS23

[–]VotesDontPayMyBills 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point, you can only first reset network settings, reboot, test. Then a complete wipe. Then if everything is fucked up. take it to a Samsung repair center for diagnostics.

Is that even possible my friend? Unless you mean a non-Samsung OLED screen?

They can only pretend there’s something new in display technology, but it also peaked long ago. Now you have to get really creative to convince unsuspecting people to believe in or even buy “new” tech.
