    An ode to iris scanners

    Posted: 30 Aug 2020 06:53 PM PDT

    I saw something recently that mocked the iris scanner on the galaxy s8 and it made me think back to my S8 and how much I missed the iris scanner. I know it wasn't very popular and the under screen fingerprint reader is an amazing technology but I really do miss the iris scanner.

    I have some pretty bad eczema and it used to crop up on the pads of my fingers pretty frequently. Fingerprint scanners were more miss than hit for me.

    Like I said, it may not have been popular but I bet I'm not the only one that benefited from it. Thank you, little weird iris scanner.

    Shouldn't we be glad that the Samsung Exynos exists?

    Posted: 30 Aug 2020 11:40 AM PDT

    I read a lot of comments that Samsung should ditch the Exynos Chip and use Snapdragon in all territories instead. While the 865+ is indeed superior, the 990 is still a very capable Chip and nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. I don't think most useres would even notice a diffrence in everyday use.

    Wouldn't ditching the Exynos give Snapdragon an insane amout of market share in the Android world?High Market share usally means higher prices and less innovation.

    The Exynos version of the Note20 Ultra gets double the base storage of the snapdragon version (256gb vs 128gb).

    Should have Samsung lowered the price as well? And if yes, by how much?

    Surface Duo YouTube embargo is straight up shady and shouldn't be encouraged.

    Posted: 30 Aug 2020 12:42 PM PDT

    Lately all smartphone releases goes through the same pattern. Youtubers get early hands on and are said to lift the embargo at the exact time that the company sets.

    This creates lots of buzz and becomes talk of the town when all Youtubers post their video at once.

    Microsoft has taken very clever approach here by making sure Youtubers shows the only part they want it to be highlighted.

    All the youtubers have gotten their review unit in a nicely packaged form and are said to post only the hardware(not even display) part of it. It would've been ok if the software wasn't ready but the device is already been showcased in variety of shops. So what's the point of holding software,camera, performance part of it? How long will the embargo last? Few weeks until they sell good amount of it?

    YouTubers wants coverage and views hence they are tied to this agreement and I dont blame them fully as they have their own bills to pay. But this is straight up shady and unethical. Where do we draw the line? Tomorrow Pixel will order youtubers to post only camera review first and full review after a month until they get first good sales. OnePlus may only let YouTubers show gaming review first.

    Isn't this another way of marketing a product through youtubers by only letting them show the good part of the device?

    Not a single YouTuber has the permission to show anything about the Surface Duo apart from its magical hardware. Heck not even let them show us the device being turned on to actually see the display. This IMO is very bad move that many companies will take advantage of it in future.
