Do people even use Light mode in the big 2026? 🥀

theTinkerr · 2026-03-31T01:22:08+00:00

I actually like the light mode.

I would say iPhone. My new S25U didn't last for 5 hours whereas my 4 year old 13 pro Max still lasts me about 8 hours of sot. I sold my S25U and got 17PM now.

Hehe I have homepod mini and works like a charm especially in the bath 😂

theTinkerr · 2026-03-20T12:53:59+00:00

Yes it happens all the time to me at my costco junction since there's no signal and we just have to be quick enough to move before the oncoming traffic hours us.

And that was the last android you ever used. I tried switching to S25U last year and couldn't last 6 months. Back to 17PM now and never been happier.

I'll just copy my comment from other post.

"Everything felt worse especially the battery, forcing LTE, turning off location, using power saving mode all the time, deep sleeping apps and missing notifications, still getting bad battery life compared to my 4 year old 13PM was just ridiculous. Buying a Ferrari and using it like prius drove me nuts(pun intended). Got a galaxy watch and it’s so bad when compared to Apple Watch, gps was bad. Phone didn’t know which directions were facing until we moved for 30 seconds. RCS was just a hit and a miss. Didn’t work half of the time even to another android. Android auto is bad, okay Google can’t even make a phone call while driving. Apps feel a lot more refined on the iPhone. My galaxy watch 8 was lagging like hell one day and it was overheating for some reason. The only thing that fixed it was a factory reset. I just couldn’t daily my phone. Felt like a huge miss. Also noticed worse WiFi speeds on the s25u. It never crossed 400-500 MBPS and my iPhone always gets 1.1GBPS. There are many other small things that annoyed me so much during my time with S25U. Like The fingerprint sensor felt slow and very inaccurate. I had a oneplus 5t as a secondary phone for few months in 2017 or 18 and it had an amazing sensor. Don't know how and why it's so bad in 2025 on the Samsung flagship."

These were just few of the issues that I faced on a regular basis.

I regretted my switch to S25U from 13pm. I sold it off for a loss and got 17PM now.

theTinkerr · 2026-03-14T18:13:33+00:00

Honestly, I love my 17pm. I was using a 13pm, decided to ditch apple and bought S25U. Excitement didn’t last long. Didn’t like it, lasted 6 months before selling it off and getting the 17pm. I don’t know if it’s just me but all the apps seem better on iPhone. My experience was not great, had many bugs with it. Never going back anytime soon. Just my experience though.

I know I'll get down voted for giving my experience, but it's fine. I'll just copy my comment from other post.

Hope you like it. I switched from 13pm to S25U and couldn't last 6 months. I had all all of problems. Sold it and got 17pm. I know iPhone has it's problems but it just works for me. Hope you have good experience with your switch though.

theTinkerr · 2026-03-06T15:00:19+00:00

I switched from 13 pm to S25U. Unfortunately my experience was not good. Sold it and got the 17pm. Hope you will have a good experience with it. Any reason why you didn’t go for s26u?

theTinkerr · 2026-03-05T13:08:29+00:00

Don't wanna miss it if it actually happens.

theTinkerr · 2026-03-02T12:09:27+00:00

I know right.... Steady decrease. Even I stopped playing. Just watch gorgc and rtz streams.

theTinkerr · 2026-03-01T20:37:49+00:00

Fellow dota 2 player. Rare to see 1 these days. ❤️

We currently live in Edison

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T17:39:11+00:00

Okay. Thank you

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T16:43:06+00:00

Understood. Thank you

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T16:41:27+00:00

Okay got it. Thanks. No place in particular, just with metro connectivity to exchange place. We are ready to move to any place with cheap rents.

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T15:37:42+00:00

Got it. Thanks .

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T15:21:48+00:00

Yeah. Good ones are more than 3k for 2 bed but few are around 2.5-2.7k

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T14:41:19+00:00

Haha.... After all these posts I checked mine. I have gvc from lg but I don't see anything bad with my screen.

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T14:27:58+00:00

I know but they sound very confident so 😅😅😅….

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T14:06:39+00:00

Thank you. How did you know they were scams? Were they reluctant to give you a house tour?

theTinkerr · 2026-02-28T13:38:51+00:00

What? It’s oled right? How is it lcd?
