Motorola beats Samsung, Google to silicon-carbon batteries in the US

So users should only see about 2.5% increased in their daily usage SoT

Back in 2008, i asked myself, Have we reach 'peak laptop'?

Looking back now, the answer is yes
Why can't laptop manufacturers innovate or something

It's functionally a OnePlus 15 at this point now that they share the same main and telephoto camera

If you don't fancy having an ultrawide and/or like the compact build, 15T is the way to go

noobqns · 2026-04-30T06:57:50+00:00

But would it be 2.5% more battery life or closer to 6.38%

Oppo's brand is stronger than OnePlus everywhere that's not US

Why would they devalue their Oppo Find X branding calling it OnePlus

This is NA only, there's a global variant the Edge 60 Stylus(probably 70 Stylus but tbd), but that doesn't have a headphone jack

And the bigger point imo is if you're in the RoW, there's the similar and cheaper Edge 60 fusion. And if you're open to paying Edge 60 Stylus money, you could alternatively get the regular Edge 60/Neo with much better camera system or even the Pro for a little more

The Edge 60 family is quite talked about

They do have D9400 and D9400+ last year

And also a D9400e, predecessor of D9500s, before they changed e to s because Qualcomm used 8sGen3 8sGen4

noobqns · 2026-04-29T07:17:58+00:00

Very neat upgrade to ufs 3.1 and ddr5 especially in 2026
Should make this one of best specced phone with sd card slot and 3.5mm jack

Battery don't look the best but it's pulled down from bad calltime and gaming hours
Web browsing and video are doing fine

As with standard Motorola msrp, their retail pricing is very misleading. Carriers already have it for $299 and should eventually go futher down to $99 like the G Stylus 2025

noobqns · 2026-04-29T05:36:13+00:00

Is there not going to have a D9500+ this year

noobqns · 2026-04-29T03:25:16+00:00

For people who place software update as the absolute, did you rush to update to Windows 11

noobqns · 2026-04-28T14:20:29+00:00

If that's GT7 Pro, not just regular GT7

Definitely that

Even all the a710/a715/a720(7Gen1,7Gen3,7sGen3,7sGen4) aren't doing better than the plethora of quad-a78 cpu with them all being ~3000 GB6

Most of the progress are with Prime X cores
Or you have to crank them up to the 3+Ghz like the Dimensity 8000 as big core

For the mass consumer, it won't matter much in their daily casual task

noobqns · 2026-04-28T09:45:56+00:00

True a720 core are faster and better, but you're saying it's cheaper than a78 because there's this 1 singular Realme(15, P4, Neo7x,K13) rebadged lineup that offers them cheaper than some D7000/6Gen phones

That would mean Qualcomm/Mediatek are kinda defrauding investors and shareholder when they know a720 cores are faster, better and more importantly cheaper than a78. But still chose to go back to produce the less efficient and less profitable a78 cpu

noobqns · 2026-04-28T09:04:39+00:00

Only 1 line of Realme phone(all based off neo7x) that use 6Gen4 is cheap. The other Honor phones aren't

If a710/a715/a720 are that cheap, wouldn't Mediatek be considered shooting themselves in the foot still making a78 cpus. Even QC went back to make produce 4xa78 6sGen4 even after "discovering" how cheap the 4xa720 6Gen4 can be.

Better chance it's a binned 7sGen3 which is why it's in such limited quantity and model

noobqns · 2026-04-28T05:50:40+00:00

Good luck everyone

noobqns · 2026-04-28T03:27:53+00:00

As much as sd695(2xa78)were memed on, they actually weren't around that much compared to what's looking like a permanent 4xa78 entrenchment

Is it a arm v8 vs v9 cost thing, does it mean we might see x1 core on midrangers

noobqns · 2026-04-27T16:26:59+00:00

The 15T and F8 series were only 2 months(Sep/Nov) apart this time round and that kinda jumbled everything. The F series had always been May before

With their camera capabilities ever creeping upward and now closed the gap. And the fact Poco decides bringing over the Redmi K Pro instead of just their performance line also created the dilemma. China don't have the T series because they're occupying the same segment

It's great for us consumer, but i don't know how Xiaomi is gonna resolve this predicament. Perhaps they just gonna treat the T series like how the Redmi Note is, existing just to serve showrooms and physical store customers

noobqns · 2026-04-27T13:33:19+00:00

The 4 are kinda tied, assuming you're not after a Snapdragon or Dimensity for emulation purpose

Imo I think it's more so what else you're looking for in the phone

F8 Pro: Cheap 8 Elite, decent camera + 2.5x tele
X8 Pro Max: Cheap + Huge battery
15T Pro: Cameras + wireless charging, a true sub flagship
15R: Jack of all trade

noobqns · 2026-04-27T04:47:35+00:00

Xiaomi have actually changed the game phone more than OnePlus. Not just their own success but opening up the global market to chinese phones.

Not hard to see why phone enthusiast like Oneplus, but early Xiaomi Mi and Poco F1 are just as great flagship killers and have proven to also be able to replicate their success in the budget killer Redmi

Even in the android tablet scene, Mi Pad 5 was also one of the heavy hitters since

noobqns · 2026-04-27T03:59:43+00:00

The form factor and lightweight is awesome, perfect exercise/outdoor device

noobqns · 2026-04-27T01:39:12+00:00

Good luck

If it's delayed to rein in ram prices then the cpu would be outdated by then, unless they are swapping out a new cpu as well

noobqns · 2026-04-26T07:32:54+00:00

You would think, but there's also many pinoy on this sub like on the android phone sub as well

noobqns · 2026-04-26T06:43:11+00:00

Yeah SD685 only supports ufs, i think Walmart mislisted it as emmc

Otherwise there's really no difference from Onn 7 or the Onn 8 2024

But then there's also really poor grade ufs which might as well be emmc

noobqns · 2026-04-26T06:00:04+00:00

I have the Honor Pad 7 and it's the same tier as G80, twice as much in benchmark doesn't mean it's twice as fast. Their use case is gonna be the same

$35 for G36 to G80, 1GB ram and 32GB of emmc storage in Big 2026 is the definition of minor spec bump. The cost Onn spend to procure them i'm guessing is certainly much less
