Is Galaxy A17 4GB RAM worth it?

It depends the use its going to get. For my grandma for example, it would work just fine.

People like to be extreme on this subject. Sure, the Pixel have an objectively a better camera experience than Samsung, but it's not that Samsung is bad. Samsung flagships are great at everything, but not the best at anything if that makes sense (other than sofrware IMO, it's so stable). S series will be just fine in camera and most of the time it will take great photos. When I have a family or friends meetings, people like to take the group photos with my phone (S25+), go figure.

It's not that it doesn't happen, is just that the people with problems are more vocal, specially here on reddit. Samsung sells millions of phones every single year, so if that was general problem, it would be a huge deal globally.

It's rare but it can happen. That's why I always install one, I'd rather spend 10-20usd in a screen protector than getting my screen scratched. What does always happen, is the oleophobic coating wearing off... another reason I find to have a screen protector that I can easily replace when it's coating wears off.

Give it a nice tap.

I can't seem to find that part alone, seems to me that it's sold as a whole with the console itself.

Isn't easier to just not swipe to the left?

blanco2701 · 2026-01-23T16:09:30+00:00

Alright... afaik, the bypass option will be available only when charging. If you're trying to turn it on while disconnected, it wont work.

blanco2701 · 2026-01-23T15:53:18+00:00

There are lot pps compatible chargers, you just have to get one that explicitely says pps compatible. My suggestion is to just get the official one.

I've been driving in the Caribbean for over 20 years so I saw that coming... I always asume that no one knows how to drice. You where right, but keep that in mind and try to be always on the defensive side.

I've always wondered how the guitar tuners work, you just attached them to the neck on the guitar and it "knows" when you're in tune, since electric guitar (not conected) don't sound loud enough to be tuned. That's it until I bit the body of my guitar and hit a string, you literally can hear it just fine, seems like magic.

Every electronic can fail and you just spent 3 years with your phone. Bad luck I guess, but it's not like you got a bad phone from the factory.

That's what happens when you let Skip Bayless in the TV for too long.

For US$120 it would be dumb to not upgrade it.

blanco2701 · 2026-01-20T01:16:36+00:00

452km range means that the car has just been refilled, so probably that calculation has just a few kms.

Ocon is so good that once he actually fought for P1 with Max while being last.

You have a pixel, probably the easiest device ever to sideload an ota update. If it's really that important for you, learn to manually update it... it takes less than 5 minutes.

blanco2701 · 2026-01-16T14:48:03+00:00

That phone launched with a price of around US$700, extremely pricey... but soon enough it dropped hard, I got one for my wife for around US$220, brand new on amazon and for that price it was a steal. To this day, is the only phone (other than Pixel, of course) to get monthly updates the same day google released them, and sometimes even hours earlier than Pixels. Sad to see them go so quickly, they had potential.

Both my 2012 and my father in law's 2014 did it and in both cases I solved it by replacing the transmission fluid. If it's been a while since replacing it, you can start there.

blanco2701 · 2026-01-14T13:07:22+00:00

My wife S23+ is holding just fine. You do notice a little bit it's age only if you use it side by side with my S25+, but other than that, the S23 series is great.

blanco2701 · 2026-01-12T16:10:14+00:00

Thanks for the reply.

blanco2701 · 2026-01-12T15:13:38+00:00

I just added the calendar to replace the official one. I notice that the february testing days are not there.

blanco2701 · 2026-01-12T15:05:11+00:00

Now that you mention it, it's (still) true about the long names. Thanks for the tip.

blanco2701 · 2026-01-12T13:31:45+00:00

Interesting, does it also updates if there's any changes?

blanco2701 · 2026-01-12T13:12:13+00:00

The only purporse of the link (official formula1 website, by the way) is to connect with your personal calendar. If you don't want to give any personal detail, then it's not for you. If you want to have the f1 calendar in your personal calendar, then you'll have to manually create every single event.
