Google is pushing towards WFF (Watch Face Format) styles. The new Wear OS 5 watches, IIRC, (not the upgraded ones) didn't even support Facer or Watchmaker initially.
The Watch faces published on Play Store, majority of them, are now in WFF format which translates to improved battery life as well.
How did your 4a perform after it got the battery maintenance update? I remember folks saying the battery life went down to only couple of hours of continuous usage and even charging speeds were finicky.
Edit: I read in another comment by you that you had a 6a as well. That is still under official software support right? Is it even usable after update?
I am almost sure he meant it as just kidding as well but I couldn't oversee Vim in an emacs post :p
Is jk a subtle reference to Vim navigation!!
I remember using Cent OS (dual booting it alongside Debian) multiple years back. I think it had more or less feature parity with RHEL then and meant for personal use case unlike RHEL.
Too bad it was discontinued. I think the closest fork of it is Rocky Linux.
Not necessarily. Pixel phones are still very good at photography and crucially, will get 7 years of software upgrades. I would be surprised if this phone hits anywhere close. 165Hz IMO is overkill (heck, many argue 144 Hz on Motorola models is high enough as well).
That being said, the 80 W fast charging does blow away the Pixel (but then many entry level phones as well. The Pixel Pro has 27 W still right?) and raw benchmarks would be higher as well.
Tokyo to Osaka services don't go upto 500 kph. IIRC, the maximum operating speed for that section is 320 kph. Whilst in testing, Maglev trains have breached 500 ( and even 600 kph) barrier, commercially they don't run as of now. (I don't think apart from Shanghai, Maglev runs anywhere and even that topped off at 431 kph).
Traditional bullet trains in Japan exhibited record speeds of ~450 kph in the past but of course, operationally, they aren't run that high.
Huh, that shouldn't happen. Whilst Samsung gatekeep certain features for its models only (like ECG for instance though one can bypass it by sideloading the SHM Monitor app from XDA), basic features do work fine with most models. I have a non Samsung device as well.
The watch getting too hot is a problem. I have seen it slowing down it's charging speed (if not outright refusing to charge) in summers here.
Yes, Garmin is quite good. I only use my Galaxy Watch for basic health and sleep tracking (I know they are paywalling some stuff, but stuff like sleep or heart rate is bare minimum thing) and the odd music streaming.
Garmin definitely would give better milege in that case.
Nothing's original phones and it's sub brand CMF was not focused on US market at all and could only be bought via developer programmer there. It was more geared towards India and the prices matched the specifications there.
IIRC, Nothing's original phones were made in southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu and it's previous top tier phone was less than half this price here in India. But with this one, they jumped the gun and made a harrowing decision.
They still have a good array of products in form of Cmf phones (I was close to buying one until I saw it lacked a 3.5mm jack) and earbuds for lower end of the market but they really are being over optimistic here.
