jacktherippah@lemmy.worldto Android@lemdro.id•Probably preaching to the choir here, but headphone jacks are really a must, and USB-c adapters have their limitsEnglish11·5 months agoI initially held on to the headphone jack but nowadays I’ve completely stopped caring. My Galaxy Buds 2 Pros are pretty dang good even by audiophile standards and the convenience of TWS is quite nice. For my wired IEMs the 9$ Apple dongle works just fine with my Galaxy S24+. Nowadays some IEMS also have USB-C version and I suspect that this trend will continue. Like it or not that jack will eventually become a thing of the past on the vast majority of consumer electronics, not just on phones.

You’ve gotta try those Samsung ultrasonic sensors or those on the Pixel 9s. Way different experience. Just a light tap and it unlocks.
jacktherippah@lemmy.worldto Android@lemdro.id•Five years later, ultrasonic fingerprint sensors are finally coming to more Android phonesEnglish111·8 months agoI’m gonna have to say no to that. I love my ultrasonic sensor. It works when wet and is in a way more reachable location (the screen). No need to reach behind the phone or stretch your finger to unlock, no need to lift your phone when it’s on a table. The success rate is basically identical and it’s lightning fast, even faster than a physical sensor. The final perk is it doesn’t create a large circle opening on the back of a case so the back of your phone is totally smooth save for the camera.

Well that was 18% of 90% so still awful drain regardless.
Well here’s the drain I was talking about at least. 18% in less than an hour and thirty minutes of use for a web browser isn’t normal. In an hour of use a Chromium browser only drains 6-7 ish % for me. This has been an issue for I guess the past month or so? It drove me crazy so I had to uninstall. And it’s not just me either, there are tons of posts from people with the same problem on Reddit. If you don’t have problems, good for you I guess.
I ran Firefox Android with uBo and AdGuardDNS.
That’s all fine and good but Firefox on Android is currently in a sorry state. No per-site process isolation, buggy, can’t keep tabs open, slow, choppy, drains battery. Had to uninstall it on my brand new Galaxy S24+ and my Pixel 6 Pro because it was draining so much battery. When are you going to finally stop ignoring Firefox Android, Mozilla?
Tbh nothing comes even close to Gboard for me. The layout, the autocorrect, the simplicity, the swipe typing. Everything is perfect.
