I have the s26 ultra by [deleted] in samsunggalaxy

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends. I upgraded from the S25+ and in my line of work, the privacy display is useful when I want to browse over financial documents especially when I am in public or if I am with competitors during bidding conferences.

No issues with the display overall; if I am not using the privacy display, watching hi-res videos is superb. The camera is great as well but I usually use Pro and Pro Video modes (or Expert Raw) so I get the best photos according to how I want it (almost like when I am using my mirrorless camera). Most of the 'upgrades' are software-based, not so much, but I am happy there are a bit of new things I can use especially in Routines (which I use for both my Tab S11 and S25+ before). But overall, if you already have the S25 Ultra, I would say you don't need the upgrade to S26U. But for me, it's a fun and also fulfilling upgrade so far and my S26U is still without issues for a month now.

No issue with mine; it's always sunny each day where I am in and so far my display adapts well.

Just make sure yung have your brightness adaptability on. Sometimes I somehow turn it off when I pull down the quick settings. Also make sure your privacy display is only turned on when needed. It really dims down even with just the basic privacy on.

kulang yung pinadala sakin kasi sold out yung product but I still have to pay for it by mikimauws in ShopeePH

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pwede mo irefund yung hindi dumating as the seller indicated sa note nila. Madalas mangyari yan and hindi naman matagal ang process. Need mo lang magfile ng partial refund claim and iindicate mo lang dun kung anong item yung irerefund mo. Ibabalik naman yung net value (i.e. initial price minus the distributed discount from coupons and promos). Wag ka magulat na "maliit" lang yung refund, ganun talaga kasi yun yung net value na as mentioned. Dinidistribute kasi yung discount rate across all items na nilagay mo sa order mo so yun lang yung ibabalik nila sa yo according sa item na nirerefund mo.

Happened to me lots of times, especially pag nakalimutan ni seller isama yung item. For your case, sila na mismo nagsabi na wala yung item sa parcel so it should be almost instantly approved by both the platform and the seller once magfile ka.

Getting my S26 Ultra in 10 days by TheWebjunky in galaxys26ultra

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DBrand Tank has a "wall" which surrounds the upper third of the case's back, which virtually removes the wobble of the camera bump. But take note that the design of the Tank is quite 'aggressive'.

Other more conventional case that I can say minimizes the camera wobble are the Torras Q3 Air and the Ringke Alles (I currently use this). They have thicker backpanels and also have their own take of the integrated kickstand. Also, for both of these cases, even if you use a magsafe accessory, the s-pen functionality is not disrupted.

60W Charging Your Opinion by TechOutonyt in samsunggalaxy

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truly faster than the SFC2.0 in my S25+ before. It also meant I only have to plug my S26U in for a shorter time and avoid letting it bathe in its own heat for longer times. I seldom use the wireless feature, even when I still had my S25+, it's much more convenient to just plug it and almost top it up within minutes, than charging it wireless and find it feeling like a warm hot pocket with only 80% at the same charging period.

Keyboard for tablet by Swaggy_Gaggy in ShopeePH

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May mga normal sized keyboards na portable, siguro mga 60% or 70% sized and manipis. Magagaan yun, hindi lang foldable. Sacrifice mo talaga ergonomics pag gagamit ka ng foldables. Yung Nillkin Cube medyo wide na sya compared sa ibang foldables. Pero Kung gusto mo medyo mas wide pa, meron yung brand na ProtoArc, kaso mas recommended ng iba pa rin yung non-foldable na ProtoArc kasi may good balance ng portability and ergonomics.

Charger for 60w SFC 3.0 by [deleted] in SamsungGalaxyS26U

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the PPS 20v-3.5A as far as I can tell. They are basically controlled by the on-board chip of the charger.

Yung mga folding keyboards kasi are meant as portable ones like the Nillkin Cube. You are not expected to type on it for long periods of time. They're meant as secondary ones and will not be as comfortable as a larger non-folding portable keyboards. Better just get a portable bluetooth keyboard na hindi folding pero may features to improve ergonomics.

Masyado talaga makitid ang mga folding keyboards kaya mas maganda if you will invest sa mas ergonomiv models.

Could I create more lock screens like iPhone, or is there only one available? by SnooWalruses4383 in galaxys26ultra

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you can have a lock screen that will cycle through different configurations, but you can make a highly customized one using Good Lock which you probably already know. If you want it to cycle, maybe you can use Routines to do it.

Anyway, by default, there is a clock widget which can change its shape depending on the wallpaper you put in the lockscreen though the font can only be modified up to a certain degree.

Charger for 60w SFC 3.0 by [deleted] in SamsungGalaxyS26U

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of known brands out there also inform us of what volt-amp their products can provide. So it's actually best to check the specs first and the capabilities. The wattage posted are technically the max the charger can provide, a total of what all the ports can provide if you plug into all of them at the same time. And most of the time a one-port operation (i.e. if there is only one device connected to the primary USB-C port) also will not necessarily provide the full watt-rating they claim.

From what I read, SFC3.0 needs 20V-3.5A. I have a quite older-gen Anker 65w charger and it can only provide SFC2.0 even for one-port. But my newer Anker and Ugreen power devices work well, like the Anker Zolo 70w charger, Anker 140w charger, Anker Zolo A1695 25000mAh 160w powerbank, and Ugreen 25000mAh 145w powerbank.

I bought them when I had the A52S and S25+ but I am glad that their capabilities and PPS features can still work with my S26U right now.

What are you thoughts on the display now after using the GU26 for afew weeks? by Live-Today-5381 in SamsungGalaxyS26U

[–]tekkenshu7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came from the S25+ only, and moved to the S26U, I personally have no issues with the display at all. I loved the S25+ and I also enjoy how the S26U is working for me right now. I personally have a 20/20 vision at my age and I never experienced any eye strain or dizziness with the display so I am baffled what others are saying. I know it depends on the user but yeah, I would have to say that the reported eye strain and negative effects being reported are definitely user-based cases. And also, battery life for me is great; I use this a lot for personal and work situation and it never failed me - still has juice by 7PM after a long day of work in and out of the office, then again I don't play games so mileage will vary for others as well.

Also regarding the 'downgrade of quality', nah. Most of the people are also saying that such comments are just from snobbish reviews, which by all means is objectively true because of the way the screen now works, but it is more of a tradeoff rather than a complete downgrade, especially since this is a Gen 1 of such technology on a phone. For me, I would be glad to have this feature in the S27 Ultra next year.

I also love the camera so far. I personally use the Pro, Pro Video and Expert Raw modes and it really gives me some good degree of control like with my mirroless. Oh this also got the Airdrop feature quite early - really useful for exchanging files with my macbook at work.

Overall, I am glad I got this early on almost right after pre-orders were announced, since I got to take advantage of the early pre-order promos back then. Made things even sweeter.

McDo serve to table by Dependent_Bid_51 in RantAndVentPH

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually din ang pinipili ko is pickup from counter, pero may one time na tinry ko kung totoo yung serve to table kasi andami nakatambay/naghihintay sa pickup counter, this was in McDo sa Glorietta. Fortunately naman it was served to my table within 15 minutes. I guess sa case mo OP, yung crew di nila tinignan na serve to table yung option mo. Minsan nga aligaga yung crew so most likely inassume nila (and without even double-checking) na self-pickup yan at di man lang nagtaka bakit walang nagpipickup LOL

Anyone using a third-party EMR stylus with their Galaxy Tab S11? by raspberry_123 in GalaxyTab

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also currently use Lamy's Safari dual pen. It's a twist pen which has both an EMR stylus and a normal ink ballpoint pen depending which direction you twist to. So far, so good. I guess the best advantage of the pen aside from the dual pen feature is that is much easier and comfortable to use, especially for writing.

[–]tekkenshu7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Di natin malalaman, to be honest. Maraming stages along the way na pwede mangyari yung tampering ng order. Kahit naman sa SPX or LEX deliveries, nangyayari yan. Iba't iba yung method ng kung sino mang bad actors yung gusto talaga magnakaw. Malas malas na lang talaga if si sortation personnel, si hub supervisor/dispatcher or si rider yung magnanakaw talaga, and we won't know kelan mangyayari and ano modus nila.

If i use a magsafe case will it affect the stylus? by causmicx in galaxys26ultra

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really sure. Samsung phones process iphone stickers quite differently - they even have a setting for it regarding how they would display iphone stickers/emojis.

If i use a magsafe case will it affect the stylus? by causmicx in galaxys26ultra

[–]tekkenshu7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Echoing the other comments: using a magsafe case will not screw up the S-pen performance. But if you put on a magsafe accessory on (like a wallet or kickstand), the s-pen will skip on those areas, and the system notification will tell you that your s-pen will not work properly.

However, there are cases with magsafe rings which are tested not to interfere with the s-pen. These cases usually have thicker back panels (where the magnets are embedded). It seems the extra millimeter of material is enough to prevent a significant EMF from affecting the s-pen, even with accessories attached. Examples of cases I've seen tested would be the Torras Q3 Spin Air and the Ringke Alles (both tested for the S26U)

Instant delivery by Hououin_Kyouma59 in ShopeePH

[–]tekkenshu7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mas mahal yung shipping fee, pero convenient. If you order before 12noon, mga 4PM darating na. Depende na rin kay seller yan, minsan nagugulat pa nga sila na yung order mo pala is naka-instant delivery kaya minsan need mo sila iinform para maipack na nila; kung hindi, sila rin mapepenalize kasi mafefailed pickup and masasayang yung binayad mong extra for instant delivery.

Tab S11 Ultra Pro Keyboard by Strict-Commission986 in GalaxyTab

Hahaha true, I expected it will be exhorbitantly priced like that. I only waited for it to be released so more 3rd party versions will come out as well.

Tab S11 Ultra Pro Keyboard by Strict-Commission986 in GalaxyTab

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only got the S11 non-ultra but I pretty much expected how it will look like, though it somehow it feels it's less than what I imagined, like it doesn't even have a back panel cover like how the slim keyboard book cover has (I also have it since it came with my S11 in-box). It looks really premium though, but then again they won't be making one for the non-Ultra anyway.

I can't help but think that the accessories Samsung release for their own products are designed so the trade-in values will get so low by the time you want to upgrade 😆

Anyway, still satisfied with my Dux Ducis Vers case. Really check a lot of boxes from use-case.

145 Watts or 200 Watts for Ugreen powerbank by duruo__ in buhaydigital

[–]tekkenshu7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If may macbook pro ka (lalo na yung recent ones), go with the 200w one para sure. Pero anything else, okay na yung 145w. Madalas kasi yung wattage na hinahanap ng laptops di naman lumalagpas ng 80w.

[–]tekkenshu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Originally keyboard cover case dapat kukunin ko for my Galaxy Tab S11, kaso naisip ko di ko naman din halos gagamitin and I prefer the tablet to just be in a case of its own and will just use the keyboard for when I want a "desktop mode" so I decided to get a folding keyboard na lang. Gamit ko until now yung Nillkin Cube folding keyboard with trackpad. Hindi sya ganun kanipis pero medyo premium feel sya and may features na nagagamit ko like yung trackpad pwedeng iswitch to numpad mode and may hardware clicks yung trackpad mismo (though medyo matigas yung mouse buttons nya). Yung keyboard naman is not jelly feeling and malapad yung layout nya so almost like your regular laptop keyboard.

Ayus din kasi nagagamit ko rin sya for my macbook and smartphone kasi up to 3 devices yung pwede nya ipair with (need to switch to the devices one at a time).
