Also no one ever needs.
They have this amazing camera on it, but to get the full use out of it you need to manually set the shutter speed, lighting and all kinds of shit. I know so many people who buy these phones because of the camera, and then set it on auto and take mediocre pictures that are on par with my 200 dollar phone. your 144hz screen is useless when you set it to 60 so your battery lasts longer. I sometimes go through half a youtube video on 360 or 480p before realising it on my phone, but i’m sure that people can’t live without a 4k screen
I basically had the same thought with the OP 11, by default you don’t even get the resolution you bought it for, just some scaled down version “for battery”.
Mind at least referencing your daily driver after saying that? I shared the video because I love learning about damn near every device that comes out. He references the price in the review.
I spent just shy $600 on my OP 11, not completely happy with it, pretty set on not buying another OP device.
My personal issues with Samsung aside (from years ago, nothing recent or relevant) prevent me e.g. from buying a Samsung.
TBF it seems like most manufacturers are going to shit these days, wouldn’t be surprised if most devices become iPhone look-alikes in the future.
Personally, I feel like we as regular people, need to get to the point where we tell these huge companies that we do get to own stuff that we buy, I know things will likely get worse before they get better (if they do), but I don’t think spending $1,000 on a personal computer should not come with restrictions on what you can do with that personal computer.
Anyways, word-pukey.
I didn’t downvote your video or anything, I was just expressing an opinion.
No worries, I am aware that sometimes the way I express words can be a bit asshole like, especially online when you can’t hear how I would say it out loud.
$1,300 for a personal computer you’ll never fully own or be in complete control of?
Pass.

Depressing.

Edit: A word
Thanks for replying. This is the kind of stuff we need here. Not word-pukey at all!
