    What phone feature was hyped up by this subreddit on announcement only to be seen now as a gimmick?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 08:41 AM PDT

    It's often hard to gauge how a new feature will actually be adopted in real-life applications.

    Every phone maker has some new interesting feature that is used in marketing to differentiate themselves from the pack but the long term usefulness is often questionable. I think we'd like to imagine that we are more informed than the average consumer but I don't think this is necessarily true.

    Is there any example of this that you have noticed??

    Edit: features are not limited to hardware, if you believe a software or OS feature was hyped up that works too

    Just ordered a replacement for my first smartphone. How often do you change phones?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 05:16 AM PDT

    Couple years ago I got a job where I needed a smartphone with gps and whatsapp. Against my will I then purchased my first smartphone.

    At first it seemed like a gadget, but became part of my life. Bank transactions, instant communication with my work team, gps for driving around town (and remembering later where I was each day), redditing on my slack hours, spotify when I'm on the gym, chilling in bed (using bluetooth to my home sound system). How did I ever live without this?

    I think I even got attached to it, sometimes I just idle on the screen, moving around icons, clicking on stuff...

    Almost three years later and the screen is mostly cracked, battery seems to die out randomly once it's at 20-18%, and I kinda jumped at a flash deal and got myself a new one.

    Still, I feel some sort of guilt, having added another expense where I didn't "need" yet, maybe this workhorse could go on a little longer. On the other hand, it might be handy having a backup that still has some life on it.

    Tldr : got a replacement phone before mine died. Feel kinda guilty. How often do you switch, and what makes you change?

    Thanks to everyone that responded, it was fun reading through other people's experiences. I do hope to treat this new phone better, put more of me into it, avoid it cracking so much. In the end, it seems holding out for almost 3 years was good enough, the battery was getting flaky, and although I could have it replaced, the screen is mostly shattered. (I actually thought it would be indestructible, it had taken so many falls... Untill it didn't survive one and cracked)

    (Opinion) Android Customisation is what keeps me invested.

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 05:18 AM PDT

    I've been on the Android platform since my HTC Desire many years back.

    Although I've always been impressed by the sickness of Apple experience, the restrictions imposed by that particular walled garden has meant I've never been tempted.

    For me, Android's strength has always been the continuing facility for near infinite tweaking, from the common elements like widgets and live wallpapers, to things like Substratum, Tasker, Xposed etc.

    This freedom allows for those of us who can't resist a settings menu to always have options.

    I've recently upgraded from the s8+ to a pink Note 9 (thought the colour might be an issue, but I love it) and this handset has really highlighted why I get so much pleasure from my new phones.

    I've been away from the Note line since the original (which I still have somewhere) and this really is the "everything phone".

    I'm off work with a cold and so have had time to get my setup to a point where I'm really happy with it.

    Being able to obsess about my setup down to this level is one of the major reasons why I've never considered switching.

    I know I'm by no means the average user - for whichever platform - but I really do appreciate being able to individualise.

    Tl:dr I like to tinker. Android let's me and I think it's good.

    Paranoid Android, “Quartz new, pussycat?”

    Posted: 29 Sep 2019 10:46 PM PDT

    Benchmarks and CPU performance are far more relevant on mid-range phones over flagships, in my opinion.

    Posted: 29 Sep 2019 10:26 PM PDT

    When you're on the market for a mid-range phone, you would want decent performance out of it for at least two, maybe three, four, five years. All flagships meet this criteria nicely, so in my opinion a much more interesting showdown is on the mid-range. I would care much more about a Snapdragon 675 vs a Helio P70, P90 or something over the 855+ vs Kirin 990. Personally I really like the Mate 30 Pro despite being overshadowed by the future 865. What do you guys think?
