Dude, this whole website is fucking amazing, one of the phones has a DLP projector built in??? I love it, if only these could run CalyxOS.
Chinese brands are wild and they make the craziest shit
Seems like they also tried to make a Nothing clone lol
It charges at 66 watts lmfao that's nuts
There's a 240W charging prototype by Otto IIRC
Doesn't most phones go that high these days? The One+ phones has their "warp charge" which maxes out at 65W
No idea, admittedly. I think my pixel 7 only does 30, the new iPhone might do 40w?
Huh, maybe it's just One+ then IDK. But honestly I couldn't care less, my phone always charges overnight, so I have no need for anything more than 5W anyway.
The Chinese brands have generally been the leaders in fast charging tech
They have pretty cool smaller phones, too. Unfortunately they don't have great antennas for my market.
Cases do not hide or offset camera bumps.
Sure they do. My current phone's bump is completely leveled out by the case.
Mine isn't. I want my case to also protect the camera glass, which means it needs to be really thick, which is worse than the bump IMO.
My current case is the Spigen Liquid Air Armor, which I like a lot because it doesn't make the phone very thick, but it still has the annoying bump.
They make the contrast smaller because they don't go over the bump. Also they can integrate it more seemlessly than this sharp 90 degrees angle.
You can get cases like that, but then open yourself up to damage to the bump. I personally use the Spigen Liquid Air, which is relatively thin and protects the bump as well, but it does nothing to minimize the bump.
What do you mean?
It sounded good in their head
On one hand, when you put a case on the phone, it's not as bad.
On the other hand, that's a lot of real estate for a bigger battery that's completely wasted.
I wonder how much such a thing would weigh. I don't need/want a week's worth of battery.
Still no room for headphone jack
I'd take two days of battery over a hideous camera bump any day.
Well, i hate it. Every single phone I've had sucked compared to the one before it, ignoring the capabilities of the soc. I miss my pixel4a compared to my current pixel6a. When I had a galaxy7, I hated it compared to my galaxy2. Nothing compares to the original droid, that was the best phone I ever had.
I still have mine. Sucks they killed all the bands for it.
Was the droid that one that goes "DROID!" in a robotic voice when you turn it on?
Motorola Droid (the entire lineup) yeah. They kickstarted androids popularity. My father had one, by my suggestion. A friend had one in my hs days.
The HTC Dream/T-Mo G1 (another friend had one of those as well) started it all, but the advertising that moto had was the real push.
Galaxy S3 was peak design imo.
It was inspired by those smooth pebbles you'd see in a river bed, as I recall.
I am still using a pixel 3xl and probably will until the battery dies.
So this is the idiot we have to blame for the ugly and annoying camera bump. Sad that it seems like there is no going back to a phone with a good design. Camera bumps are awful and not worth the tradeoffs.
I am waiting for the egg shaped phone that somehow has sharp edges and remains slippery when dry.
That ship sailed once the headphone jack was removed.
Yeah, I have the Pixel 8 and the camera bump is annoying. I wish they'd make a slim version with a crappier camera, because I honestly don't use it much and would prefer a sleeker phone. My old Moto G Power was fantastic for this, but unfortunately it's out of SW support, and I would really rather not switch my phone again just because SW support ended.
I really want a PinePhone, but the SW support for features I need leaves a lot to be desired.
At least it's symmetrical so it won't rock, unlike every other phone out there now, including the one I'm typing on.
The little bump on my iPad mini drives me fucking mad. I want to be able to put in on a desk and write on it, but no, fuck me. The case I have bulges slightly in the middle, meaning it still doesn’t sit flat.
I don’t even use the camera on the iPad, because I’m not a lunatic.
Nobody at Google ever admits anything they do is wrong or evil. What's new?
"Don't be evil", they say.
Just throw an arri LPL mount on the pixel 10, so I can mount my 45-132 T2.8 lens on it and call it a bump.
Imagine.... a 3+ day battery if the battery thickness would increase to make the back flat.
Thin phones are NOT the future, long battery life is.
World's first amogus phone

Does it have to be "News"?
From the about page:
This is a most excellent' place for technology news and articles.
It's just not very interesting, is it?
That sounds subjective, in that case just down vote and move on, no point in trying to find the right answer here.
Who are the people that care about these things? Everyone's going to put a case on it anyway.
If I were in charge of product design we'd have two phones:
Sure that sounds nice, but where are you going to find a car small enough to fit in a man's pocket?
!dadjokes@lemmy.world, unite!
Seriously. You'd have to settle for a pocket bike, instead.
No room. I’d have to lose a pocket whale.
Heyoooooo!

Now there's a new phone? I bet i'll hate it.
I miss my Nexus One.
