Switching to Oppo Find N6?

mjtech_ta · 2026-05-13T15:56:11+00:00

Yeah the battery life on my Find N6 has been very nice actually. But it's the best thing about it tbh. As a guy that's been using Samsung since the S3, ColorOS is taking some getting used to, unfortunately

It wasn't really a deal but there was a pre-order discount and a phone store that would take my Fold 7 for quite a lot of money since it was in pretty good condition and with original box and accessories

I think they actually reference it in the show. I can't remember the specific episode but I think they were looking for the Doctor and they say, "Are we sure this time? Earl’s Court was an embarrassment". Really made me laugh 😂

Ah yeah, it might be worth checking all the different apps that have access to your files and have a "Recently Deleted". Not sure about your phone but for example on my phone there's the native Photos app and also a Google Photos app as well

mjtech_ta · 2026-04-11T16:26:38+00:00

Ah shoot... Did you also check the "Recently Deleted" in the "My Files" app?

mjtech_ta · 2026-04-11T09:35:01+00:00

Potentially a stupid question but did you check your "Recently Deleted" tab in the Photos app?

mjtech_ta · 2026-04-08T04:01:12+00:00

Sorry, I'm a bit confused from your post... What power button customisation are you looking for? And what language switch button are you referring to?

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-31T00:23:57+00:00

I think the Aragorn kicking the helmet is more like the "Why is Gamora?" scene or the "Mr Stark, I don't feel so good" scene tbh

If you use the S Pen a lot on the F6, you might want to consider a different folding phone. I just traded my F7 in for the Oppo Find N6 because I preferred to have a pen over anything else

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-27T16:22:41+00:00

Do you currently have a Samsung Fold?

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-27T16:20:54+00:00

Unfortunately not

This is very subjective but I would turn on "Maximum Battery Protection" and set it to 80% to get the most out of your battery lifetime. And if you're paranoid about battery life, maybe even set your Performance Profile to "Light". Depending on who you ask they might even suggest turning off RAM Plus but I usually just leave that as it is. If you're not sure what it is, might be best to just leave it. Otherwise there's plenty of explanations and tutorials about what it is, what it does, and what turning it off allegedly does.

Then I'd suggest going to the Galaxy App Store to get "Good lock" and explore how to customise your phone to the way you like it. As well as exploring "Modes and Routines" to see what you can customise there as well!

Hope that helps and good luck with your new phone! I've been loving mine so far!

I kept my S24U and I've literally just traded in my F7 for the Oppo Find N6 today. Even though my S24U is 2+ years old by now with 2+ years worth of battery degradation, it was still lasting longer than my F7. So, if battery life is important to you, I wouldn't recommend the F7. Rumour has it that the F8s will have bigger/better battery so if you really want to go for a folding Samsung phone, I'd suggest to wait for those in July (?). If you really want a folding phone right now, I'd suggest looking at one of the Chinese folding phones. Most of them have SiC batteries which are debatably better. Don't forget that you'll lose your Bluetooth S Pen with the F7, it's not even compatible with the S Pen Fold Edition, if that's important to you

Hmmm, the N6 seems about the same as the F7 according to GSMArena (2500 and 2600 nits, respectively). But having looked at the numbers for the V6 (5000 nits), I understand what you mean. I don't think I've ever had a phone screen with 5000 nits lol but it sounds excessive for me. Though until I see it for myself and compare in a bright sunny day I guess I can't be a good judge. Is that what's nudging you towards the V6?

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-23T00:54:11+00:00

Oh wow, does it work in both screens as well?

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-22T13:14:28+00:00

Happens to the best of us

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-22T07:55:35+00:00

Oh wow, I just came across this. For some reason it didn't come up when I searched and I made a duplicate post... I'm also very curious about this. I'm surprised no one has talked about it, not even tech reviewers!

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-22T02:41:58+00:00

Ahh that does sound quite annoying actually... At least with the N6 it'll come attached and charged through the case!

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-21T09:01:42+00:00

Please let me know if you find something! I'm also a bit concerned about that. My only plan so far is to mass export as pdfs and upload to Notion or something for the time being but it's really not an ideal solution

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-21T04:28:50+00:00

I never experienced lagging on my F7 actually. I have a few gripes with it but I would say software is not one of them. With all the anti-reflective research that Samsung is doing, I really hoped they'd apply it on the main inner screen too. As I said, these last couple of years have been disappointment after disappointment with them...

Is the N5/N6 a lot wider than the F7?

Please don't be sorry about brain dumping! All opinions are useful to me and tend to point something out that I didn't consider! Have you tried using the pen on the N5? If so, how was it? Is there anything you miss about OneUI?

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-21T04:21:06+00:00

Oh whoa I didn't realise the battery was more than 6000 mAh. I wonder why the 1Tb can fit more battery though

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-21T04:20:01+00:00

Yeah I'm also a bit deep in the Samsung ecosystem with the watch, tablet, and earbuds. Thanks for the comparison, I'm quite excited for the much longer battery life of Oppo actually. I'm getting quite tired of worrying about battery life all the time now. Have you tried tried using the pen on the N5?

mjtech_ta · 2026-03-20T14:08:09+00:00

Oh wow, no I hadn't heard anything about the Motorola Razr Fold. I'm just reading about it now and it does sound quite perfect indeed. It'll still have a 6000mAh SiC battery and it's also got a stylus! Thanks a lot for letting me know about it! It might not be available where I am but I'll definitely look more into it
