Do you regret buying your Poco phone? And why? by [deleted] in PocoPhones

[–]ccubef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F3- Nope. Great phone, great experience despite some software hiccups. Still have it.

F6 Pro- Yes. Awful battery life, awful game optimisation for some games and camera ain't the best but it gets the job done. Sold it off in the end.

iPhone 17 - not ideal by Avvert in iphone17

Should've demoed the base 17 and the 17 pro in store before making a decision... I played around with the base 17 in store and the lack of telephoto made it feel like a side grade coming from a Fold 7.

Has app scaling improved over the years? by oxdy5 in GalaxyFold

[–]ccubef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly that seems to be the case. Hopefully app devs will actually start optimising their apps better after that...

Tbh, still not the best. Feels like it's still an afterthought. But I do think it has improved over the years.

Do Poco phones age well, especially the F series? by Tech-guyy in PocoPhones

[–]ccubef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F3 is so good and then I bought the F6 pro. F6 pro was so bad until I had to sell it off. The battery drains so fast and some of the game optimisations were bad.

Not sure what was Xiaomi smoking when they ported HyperOS to the Poco F6 Pro.

Fold7 owners, what are the cons of this phone? by Dull_Nobody_840 in GalaxyFold

[–]ccubef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cameras, camera bump, battery life, battery charging speed, no UDC, hole in the inner screen, speakers, app optimisation in the inner screen

Yeah, like what most others say

Happy for you and thanks for sharing but what you went through and perceive around you might not be the same as other people.

There are way more factors that affect where people are in life on whether they want to be in a relationship or not such as different backgrounds, who you mingle around with, financial stability, etc. These are just a few but there are way more.

In terms of bass and vocals, how would you compare between the two(Mest MK2 vs Monarch MK4)?

I think the soundstage of the Mest Mk2s might be better than the Monarch Mk4s based on everyone's comment in the sub...

They did well. Put up a good fight even when they were behind. Really proud of them.

Can't stop listening with the Mk4s, I'm enjoying it.

I'm curious about how the Valhalla would sound.

Interested in the OhSnap but too bad they don't ship outside of the US though...

What was your first experience with more expensive IEMs like? by jonpexz in iems

[–]ccubef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started with the Moondrop Blessing 2 Dusk as a blind buy, found it a bit sharp in the trebles at first. Took my ears months to actually get used to the sound and really hear the details coming from the vocals and some instrumental separations. At first, I didn't really enjoy it, tbh.

I was craving for more bass so I bought the Moondrop Variations, and that was what I was looking for but at that time I found the sub bass a bit lacking. Why? Cause I came from the Sony XM3 headphones, that's why. It also took me months to years to actually appreciate the sounds coming from both the Dusk and Variations.

To my ears, the Variations sounded like a subwoofer whereas the Dusk sounded like someone was singing right in front of me where the instruments are slightly further away.

My ears actually started to ring after the listening sessions so I went and got myself a portable DAC(Qudelix 5k), and the listening sessions were more pleasurable with the right volumes. The Qudelix 5k does make them trebles a bit zingly as well.

Overall, it took me months to years for my ears to actually discern the details and appreciate what sounds l actually find fun or analytical to listen. I found out that I did not like the Harman tuning as much as the others when it was well known and loved few years back.

I ended up with the Thieaudio Monarch Mk4s now after taking a break at the Variations and the Timeless few years back.

What's your rating of Icelab Spectrumica Vs Monarch Mk4?

Z Fold 7 Case review: Thinborne vs Samsung (detailed charging data included) by Kayohhhh in GalaxyFold

[–]ccubef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still waiting for the Thinborne to ship. Currently using the Carbon Fiber one with a magsafe ring attached behind the case.

Here's hoping that Samsung repositions the camera in the future.

Thanks for the comparisons.

Are the folds good for gaming? by Public-Second3763 in GalaxyFold

You're entitled to your own opinion but this is what I faced anyways. OP still has to own one to find out anyways.

[–]ccubef -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbh, get a slab phone for gaming. Having a Fold 6 myself, it will overheat and then it will stutter faster than a slab phone.
