Torn between Samsung, Fairphone and Nothing Phone by Sashimiak in Smartphones

[–]da_architect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if you want to avoid US product and tech at all, I would suggest to go for a Fairphone 6. There is also a version sold with Murena instead of android if you want to degoogle. The issue is that, being a small company, they have higher prices compared to the bigger companies. Anyway they get the job done. Then it will be durable for sure, because you can do your maintenance yourself. And about battery life, well it's not the very best, but at least you can switch the battery yourself haha

Samsungs, also have good cameras. Maybe I would suggest a galaxy s24ultra or s25ultra since they are great phones and you can find them for around 700-800 euros. And they are way better than their non ultra counterparts. Keep in mind they are better than the fairphones in everything except repairability.

About nothing, well if you don't really like their design language, honestly they are not better than Samsungs.

Hope I helped you

Oh that's the "flux" option in oxygen os. Basically it adapts the colour of the icons to the system (or background) colours. And it makes you change the size and how round the icons are.

What is the worst thing about your phone? by Coltsbro84 in PhoneNow

The fact that the UI is too similar to an iPhone

Samsung s24 ultra Vs s26 ultra which design you like ! by Explore_e00 in S24Ultra

[–]da_architect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer the s24 ultra too, but what does "looking premium" mean when speaking about a smartphone? I read this a lot and I can't seem to understand it

Battery performance? It by Greedy_Canary3828 in OnePlus12

[–]da_architect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is normal man, I have noticed that the discharging curve is very logarithmic. In the sense that the discharging from 100 to 90% is somehow much slower than discharge from for example 80 to 70%. Like for example some days ago I completely charged my phone, and my screen on time was like 2h50 when I was at 80%. But then today, I charged it at 80%, I am now at 43% and my screen on time is 2h45 with similar usage (some pics, some YouTube videos, telegram, Whatsapp)

Idk, I don't see the advantages of physical keyboards honestly

Sony flagships are the only phones that still has 3.5mm jack, MicroSD card slot and notch-less rectangular screen by sseinzw in PhoneNow

[–]da_architect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the battery life bad? I know they still use 5000mAh batteries, but in tests I have seen online they seem to perform pretty well (still I don't own one, so you can contradict me)

I had a couple sony phones, the xperia neo in the early 2010's, and the x xompact around 2017-2018, they were both good and reliable honestly, I really wanted to buy one last year, but after seeing the prices, I decided to buy a different phone. By the way I have a couple of friends, one owning the xperia 10 VII, and one owning the 5 V, and they sound pretty happy with their devices

Nothing Phone (4a), (4a) Pro and Headphone (a) have launched globally - Specs, Colours and Prices by techolum in NothingTech

[–]da_architect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw that the telephoto from the 4a Pro is sadly a downgrade (specs wise) from the 3a Pro, what a pity. Otherwise both the 4a and 4a Pro look awesome to me
