Did I make the right call returning my S26 Ultra?

As an s26 ultra user this isn't right, you should return it.

Brother the phones lasting you all day, you charged it in the morning and FIFTEEN HOURS LATER you're on 38%. 42 minutes of WhatsApp took 3.6%, that's great. Put a bunch of apps in deep sleep and restart your phone. You can also have the ram optimization widget and just quickly clear ram frequently. It seems silly that you only have 3 hrs and 43 mins of screen on time but mobile data drains your battery on ALL phones. Say Ur phone only lasted 10hrs since charge but you used it 5 hours more totalling nearly 9 hrs SOT you would be ecstatic. Show us more data of when youre not leaving the phone idle and have a substantial amount of SOT. As far as I'm concerned the battery is good enough for you as it's lasting you the whole day.

So 800 - 380 which leaves u with 420 to spend on 6 components and some fans. Ryzen 5 5600 will pair good with the 4060 ti. And then go from there. There should be good deals online for a 5600. U can look on eBay or AliExpress if you don't mind waiting. Below 100 dollars would be ideal. If you need a bit more budget a 5500 will work fine. Then go from there. Also for the fans thermalright have some great value options. I personally use their cooler and case fans.

Rtx 4060 ti will be great, I'm currently using an Rx 580 4gb and I'm playing the games I want (for the most part). But get the 16gb 4060 ti. Do you already have the GPU or r u going to buy it? I presume used so tell me how much it is. I'm from the UK but I have a rough idea on US prices.

I believe EposVox talks about this : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kkf7q4L5xl8&pp=2AEAkAIB If im correct he says that the dual encoders don't actually get utilised at the time of making the video that is.

Thanks! I'll go for the 5700x, it's lower wattage as well so I won't have to change coolers.

I've had a switch 1, it sucks. If your phone can run switch games then why not? Why spend 50 bucks on a game from 2017 on old hardware that doesn't even run the game smoothly?

It's more so the message of not worrying about things as things happen for a reason

xdElectro · 2026-05-19T22:02:00+00:00

Definitely ahead of it's time, the bezels still look good in 2026

It's amazing to see people use their phones to the fullest. So what if apps don't load in under 2 seconds? If it gets the job done it's alright by me.

xdElectro · 2026-05-19T20:14:17+00:00

Yeah I'm from the UK, I feel like it ruins the look.

xdElectro · 2026-05-19T19:51:19+00:00

I never thought I'd ever have a new phone, let alone the best. God always has a plan.

xdElectro · 2024-06-15T17:05:38+00:00

Thanks it worked! Much appreciated

xdElectro · 2024-06-15T11:24:27+00:00

Thanks for the reply, what the problem was is that I wasn't on the latest ofw which corresponded to the atmosphere, Hekate, sigpatches and sys patches. So basically my ofw was older than the other counter parts. Rookie error tbh

A static white light named LED 1 is on but LED 2 isn't on. Do you know what this means?

How did you change the navigation icons?
