I'd rather have these than any mediatek helio A22 device

Its not. I'm writing this on a Note 8 with Android 9. It can run 99% of Apps on the Playstore, has an up to date browser and even gets access to new features like Google Lens, Gemini or Quickshare. Would it be nice to have Android 14? Yes. Does it need Android 14? eh not really.

I think the 2013+ design was fine at time but 10+ years of doing the same flat minimalist design over and over makes me hate it now!

Now watch that drive

no, I'm willing to die on the hill that the ribbon UI is one of the greatest UIs period - especially how it was done in office 07 and 10. As a computer noob at the time, it was a huge improvement over the previous office 2003 UI.

The icons always gave you a good idea what something was doing, important functions were bigger and when you for example selected a table the table tab was visible and with a different color so you knew that you could do things with that table.

I think however many 3rd party programms did the ribbon UI poorly or had not enough features for it to make sense.

She was a lua girl, he was every other programming language guy. It was not ment to happen.

They have gone about this in a really stupid way. Instead of doing this exclusivity shit, they could have made games 10% cheaper for the enduser across the board.

Also their launcher sucks

I think this causes infinitly more issues than just installing it. But I agree, all these "apps" could and should be regular webapps.

With a romanian license plate

people with AMGs and BMW Ms drive that on the autobahn.

This is what I envisioned with "foldables".

yeah great, EDL mode still is exists...

I hope it sells it well. Maybe its just me but I don't see a big overlap between Platformer Fans and PS5 owners.

I think there are two core issues. Their creation engine has struggled to keep pace since the PS4 era and Todd's ego.

The engine part can be fixed by either licensing something else or investing big time to bring that fossil up to speed.

With Todd's ego, I hope Starfield thought him a lesson or they make someone else top dog.

Safari is just way better integrated in the System and its not like Firefox on iOS is the real firefox. Its webkit with a Firefox skin.

I don't care for Linus these days but respect for that.

They still make Tablets? I have one from like 2016 that isn't even horrible.

Marketing and availablity. Unless you watch Phonereviews you probably have no idea these phones exist.

no I don't
