I'll give you a couple of examples so that those who haven't experienced Xiaomi will appreciate the scale of pissing in their face

One day I noticed strange notifications that some files were not found. These files were long-deleted (5-7 days) downloaded documents
Notifications were issued
by the com.android.providers.downloads.ui application (Downloads)
It turned out that there are two similar packages with the same name. The original com.android.providers.downloads, which exist in all androids, is a system file downloader and masking as it with a ui at the end in the name with the same icon.
One from xiaomi has a category: "ShortcutBadger Sample", which is responsible for showing if it's found new files. This package is obtained from the Getapps and is visible in the MIUI components. It asks for consent to data collection at each launch. It takes 43MB of RAM, it starts by itself. A standard package without a "ui" consumes 15MB of RAM and has notification categories: "loading", "ready", "in queue".
In addition, this pseudo-loader has an hash for receiving ads.
Chinks fucked up in one thing - this probe of theirs, which merges files, sent push messages if the file was downloaded not by a standard loader, but for example through loader of crdroid, and then was deleted before the data was sent to China.

The second example.
I somehow take the phone , and on the lock screen there are news about SMO and Putin from VK. I got into the system updates - they were turned off, as before. And there is nothing new . Using the search method, it was found out that the news in the background is loaded by a wallpaper carousel, which itself was installed quietly without notification and appearance in the logs. I frozed it through ADB. Three days later, it turned on again. Then I deleted this shit completely through the ADB.

Well, if you're such a nice goy that you think it's OK, then take xiaomi.
Any other chink vendor don't have that much bloat.

6” is pretty standard non, relax

I share the beef with oversized iTablet Pro Max Gay or Kekdroid Ultra Gay Plus models somewhat. I have an iPhone mini (5.4”). Kewl, but 2smol. Ergo novelty wore off as soon as I noticed it smooshes options/buttons to tap together a lot, or they’re just TEENY tiny. My basketball palming orangutan hands always hit/select/delete entire paragraphs or the wrong words trying to move the cursor around, it’s so imprecise with its response. I tried it with a stylus to not much avail, and it’s not like I’m gonna carry one of those fucking things around anyway. Not worth it imo. 6” and thin ftw.

The only thing that would redeem my phone is a longer battery life. Also shartocorrect is aids these days but that’s just my onion.

I'm not sure about the 16 pro - it's an extra 2hundo than the regular 16 and I'm only considering it because the 60hz screen on the 16 is poopy, and a friend of mine bought the regular 15 last year and got cucked out of the AI features and I don't want something similar to happen to me.

It'm more of a DRM issue than anything. I personally just started buying anything on GOG, and get the Steam version only if it's not on GOG. For draconian DRMs I don't even bother, and just wait for a cracked release, I won't support this kind of shit.

Trying to buy a Galaxy S21 Ultra to root it, living in the US. Snapdragon variants can't be OEM unlocked without paying some jeet $150. Trying to find an international variant (SM-G998B) that is refurbished (or otherwise $300 or less), and doesn't have enormous issues like huge black blobs on the lcd. Any advice anons? My old phone was a pixel 6 pro, my main issues with it were the optical fingerprint sensor being somewhat slow/unreliable, the housing getting extremely hot while charging/calling, and battery life being absolutely atrocious while calling. Otherwise was a decent phone, I might just end up buying it again if I can't find a good s21 ultra.

There has been 0 advancements in phones since 2019. Nobody gives a shit about AI features until we reach the point where an AI is a secretary rather than a crutch. At least the fold meme has been somewhat fun to watch revive but the crease, price points for hardware, and comparability to older/standard models of phones are hard to beat.

iPhone 13 Mini is your best bet for an actually small smartphone. Otherwise the Zenfone 10, S23/S24, or Xperia 5 might work too, but they're slightly bigger. More "normal sized" than small, at around 5.9-6.2 inches, but still far from the Plus/Ultra sized mammoth phones of 6.6-6.9 inches.

>>102334573
The few times I had to use an iPhone, I could barely do it. Copying my music was a pain. Attaching a file to an email was not obvious and sometimes it would get stuck in outbox. If I forced sent from there, it stripped the EXIF data but if the email went through as normal, it wouldn't. I only needed it to do about five things and it sucked at half of them. I can't even imagine using it for everything I need, it would drive me nuts.

AI on phones will defeat encryption because it will constantly scan whatever you're doing and understand what you are doing in real time. And anything suspicious will be sent to the authorities along with all your credentials.

> The minimum wage
Why do poor people constantly talk about the minimum wage? Oh, yes, I know. Because they don't want to work, but to receive a quasi-wellfare for doing nothing, well, maybe go to work and sit there.

I am from Russia, a country under heavy sanctions. I work in an average paid job (I am a strength engineer in aviation, this is an average, even slightly below average paid job). I get about 1.6 million ₽ a year.
I spend somewhere from a third to half of my income on living (food, utilities, clothing etc) , the rest is saved for later use or invested in various ways. My smartphone is S24 ultra, I bought it without loans or offers from the carrier.
>>102336355
Thats correct.
Chinese corporations work differently than Western ones. There may indeed be "separated" structures from formally separate legal entities.
Nothing uses the same chassis as the phones of other BBK brands, by the way BBK no longer exists.

Should I even bother buying a samsung phone from 2022/1 (S21 FE) today? I have never purchased a samsung phone but everyone used to say how bad the support was and how quickly updates stopped coming and how shit the phones became in the long run, but honestly I don't even know how bad/realistic that really is.
For comparison, I have a xiaomi phone that was released in 2019/2 (the Mi 9T) and it stopped receiving updates in 2021/2 which was a mere 2 years of updates, but it still feels pretty good, phone is still quick and it still runs everything I need, I'm not sure I miss the newest updates.
I'm looking for a phone with a good camera that is on this mid/lower end, and the S21FE seems to be the best option by a significant margin, which is why I'm considering it.

But nothing was never actually part of the BBK, just some important guy from OnePlus started it. I'd trust Nothing more if it was BBK, you'd know exactly how reliable their products are or aren't.

If your battery got that fucked up that fast, why are you buying from Apple again?
I'd consider that a huge red flag.
>>
>>102340179
I kinda wish apple wasn't random with allowing battery protection on their devices. I rarely take my ipad pro m2 outside of home so I would like to limit battery below 100% but they don't allow it at all (and you can't check easily the battery life, you need to export the hardware logs). The issue is that they gave that option on both earlier models and the m4 ipad (but if you upgrade the pencil and keyboard don't work and you have to buy new ones). That's part of why I left the apple ecosystem, I feel like they do things so you're never fully satisfied with any product so you feel like you need to update, and then they add extra hidden costs on everything.
>>
>>102340284
I have no idea why battery health is hidden on ipadOS but visible on iOS. they're basically the same OS.

Sorry for the retarded question but I genuinely can't find an answer to this.
Is there any way to hide the status bar/icons on only the status bar and NOT hide/remove the icons from the quick panel or expanded menu?
Good lock can remove status bar icons, but it removes them completely, even from both quick panel and the expanded menu. I only want to remove them from just the status bar.

Keep an eye on the thread, I'm sure we'll see some.

But again, it's irrelevent what I think is a flagship phone, becasue I don't know the definiton yet. And you haven't proved that yours is correct yet.
>>
>>102341038
The primary characteristic is that it is using the latest and greatest SoC from Snapdragon or Apple.

>>102341038
refers to the highest spec model a phone manufacturer has for their latest generation
my current flagship is a water cup attached to rj45, the budget option uses string instead
>>
>>102341450
The only way I could prove mine correct is to list every single flagship phone ever made and show that it qualifies. All you have to do is find one counter example, which is much more feasible. So until it's disproven my definition will stand supreme.

>>102341489
>The only way I could prove mine correct is to list every single flagship phone ever made and show that it qualifies

Thanks for confirming you can't prove your own definiton correct.

>>102341487

The regular galaxy s isn't flagship, just part of the premium/high end line. They were flagship until the former gimmick luxury phones (note series) were incorporated in the main line, and the current gimmick luxury products are the flip and fold.

Flagship? More like fagshit

i think there are flagship product lines where every product in that line is a flagship product. every galaxy S is a flagship, every non-SE iphone is a flagship, every pixel is a flagship. when the product line gets updated with new products the old ones stop being flagships.
