Still really curious to find out if the rumors of it being a battery hog are true. I was set on finally upgrading my Note 20 Ultra to an S25 Ultra, but not if battery life is a mess
When you ask assistant to set a timer it may hang up. Most of the time that works (for me). Gemini can't do that or couldn't do that about a month ago when I was seeing articles about it. There's key functionality of assistant that Gemini is just bad at. Ask it to launch an app for you? It will bring up a search of app launchers. It will not launch Gmail.
The point of a samsung flagship is access to the S-pen. Specially in a form factor that turns into a small tablet. This defeats the purpose of a foldable. Who cares about an extra millimeter?
What is hard? Learning? Besides, you're only proving our point. Samsung (and the market) have determined that the "one size" that people want is the one without an S-pen.
But go ahead and downvote based on your feelings rather than facts. None of you own a foldable anyway so it's not like your opinions actually matter here.
Oh yeah? Seems you dropped the "people have different needs and experiences" point pretty quick. This reads like someone who has their identity wrapped up in the purchases that they make and can't handle someone criticizing multinational corporations.
Lol okay. Where was I defending Samsung? This all started with OP stating "the point of a samsung flagship is access to the S-pen" and "this defeats the purpose of a foldable" as if it was universal truth. It is not.
But that how most people on Lemmy are, at least in the tech communities. They have no concept of nuance and are completely unable to see other points of view. They were wrong. You aren't even making coherent points. I am happily moving on.
I agree with you but a ton of people don't so I think this is a good compromise. Give all the people who want a wide unwieldy, slim foldable for those who want it and charge them the premium for it. Just don't touch my pen capable, comfortably one-handed thick and narrow Fold.
Is the 10 VI Sony's midrange? It's certainly priced like one, but within their lineup it would be the lower end, no? The 5 would be their midtier offering.
Although interestingly the price of the 10 series continues to fall quite significantly. I'm not quite sure what Sony's strategy is but it seems they are trying something at the moment.
Yeah, slightly better now, but still lackluster in a phone of this class.
Especially considering that eventually every phone in the EU starting June 2025 will be required to offer at least 5 year updates. You'd think that they could offer that level of support slightly earlier to someone willing to drop well over 1k€ on their phone. Unless of course they plan to pull out of the european market at that point.
I really like my tall boi mark V so I'm a bit disappointed they're moving away from the 21:9 aspect ratio.
Edit: Not that it is utilized at all. They're after all a Japanese company. Implementing really cool things with no clue as to why they did it or why anyone would be excited about it is kind of their thing.
It would be so cool to be able to snap photos in this format but no.
