Make it a DAC that can actually drive headphones properly. Looking at ya Sony.

Incoming rant: It boggles the mind that people are championing the dumping of more batteries and bluetooth shit into the nether WRT to headphones. One could argue the same about cables but they can actually be recycled or transitioned to materials that can. I just cant understand the correlation between premium phones and less options (cognitive dissonance?). Have to give it to the phone companies don’t ya ;)

Who is this for really though? Any person installing roms is clued in and knows what they want. This “stable” author’s custom-rom credentials should be drop kicked into the sun.

That would be too far fetched in reality.

They should at least make it easy to buy a genuine battery over that lifespan. Nobody should have to browse eBay & AliExpress for a replacement component that could theoretically explode.

Manufacturers should also be forced to promote battery recycling practices & initiatives too. They are tossing endless amounts of them onto rubbish piles via planned obsolescence and yearly updates.

The Nokia Lumia 920 is shorter than an iPhone Mini 13. They better keep it the same size(ha not a foo king hope).

You may have coined somethign new here.

The cat takes 4 months to cook their dinner. The mouse eats it in 5 mins.

Happily using UBOrigin on web and uYouplus on iOS.

Yea that’s the problem isn’t it. I had a great idea involving bullshit-efying my comments by editing them slowly with a LLM via long running script and repeatedly over months.

I realised that they probably don’t delete the original text on edit anyway which, as you say is probably buried in a backup someplace.

They should also be be required to use a dongle for every tool they use to survive with a limit of only 1 tool at a time

*waiting patiently for EU to catch on to this.

Google may not like the outcome…

Dunno if you’re taking the piss but they’re not that bad. Have an iPhone mini 13 I bought for €450 2nd hand with 100% battery health. Decent upgrade from an Xperia XZ1 compact. Needed a pocketable phone & the Asus Zenfone was too expensive.

Have to say, having the call audio levels, proximity sensor & speakers properly tuned to the hardware, software/security updates without having to run a non-official build of Lineage OS and AltStore-Linux for side-loading has been sweet.

Uses more power and it creates thermal strain on a single point-of-failure port if you want to both charge and listen to music with a poxy dongle.

All this “innovation” does is create more e-waste.

Nah. It should be called Blue-it, which they have
