Can’t you install TiviMate on it or IPTV Smarters Pro and use any number of IPTV Services?

Elemental is there, I just checked :)

Xbox, SQL Server, Azure. Plenty of stuff tbh.

I had this ad earlier today. Not impressed.

Torrentio and a real debrid subscription.

Yup, the Formula 1 community isn’t in there for example.

Mobile Red Alert 2 would be a dream.

Mine came from a tech unsavvy person too. He was blown away when I showed him it running on my phone 😂. It’s just an Android app haha.

I’m glad that manufacturers are producing this aspect ratio of foldable. Its more appealing to me than the Z Fold style.

I don’t think the Google foldable offers good value sadly. Hopefully this device is better, but I’ve been out of touch with OnePlus of late, and I have no idea how they are with updating devices.

Word of mouth is the only way I’ve got in to it tbh. I can’t share mine here without doxxing myself sadly.

IPTV is the answer. It’s so much more convenient than searching for streams to find one which doesn’t buffer.

I’ve had my S21U for 2.5 years so far. Only thing it needs is a new battery.

Upgrades aren’t exactly revolutionary these days. For the masses, there little difference between a 2021 and a 2023 flagship. Also everyone is skint.

So when using this test video there is noticeable judder at 24fps. Playing back at 1.25x (30fps) is as smooth as you’d like. Performance is very similar to an S21 Ultra if that’s a useful reference. Of course, this is a long horizontal panning shot, which I know to be the worst for judder. I’d bet my LG C1 would struggle with it.

When watching modern films, I find that these kind of shots occur less. I can’t say I’ve really noticed judder whilst watching films on this device. Clearly it does happen, but it’s not something that has bothered me personally. I would say I’m the kind of person to notice any inconsistency in presentation of video, be it judder, stutter, bad frame timing, micro-stutters in games, low bit rate etc… So make if that what you will.

If I were at home if film it for you, but there’s very megre Internet where I currently am.

The screen is vibrant, bright enough and has OLED contrast.

Sound is OK, nothing to write home about, but it’s on par for a device this size. If you go the Lineage route, I’d recommend using Flat Equalizer to raise the bass and some mids for a fuller sound more akin to the One UI tuning.

I use this for F1 (50fps), football, movies, TV, and YouTube and I really like it. For the £80 I spent, I’m delighted. Only get 5 or 6 hours SoT, which might be a downer, but it’s an old used battery so what else do you expect?

I have an S5e running lineage, happy to test anything. I can tell you now though that HDR playback is not possible. It’ll just tonemap to SDR, and not particularly well.

Star Trek has always been woke. Nichelle Nichols was one of the first black women to feature prominently on TV in a lead role. She was also one of the first actresses to have an interracial kiss on US television.

If you can’t see that Star Trek hasn’t always been about equality and diversity and learning to accept those who are different then I’m really not sure what you’ve been watching.

I wouldn’t trust that for shit. Nobody should trust this. Revanced is not difficult, if you can’t get it working, then maybe you don’t have the technical nous to pirate safely (not aimed at you directly, just in general).

This is me. That rush when a new ROM booted for the first time, or the panic when you’re not sure if you’ve just softbricked your phone.

Bugs? You tell me!

Samsung are the second phone manufacturer I’ve owned 2 devices in a row from, HTC being the first. Ive had Nokia and Apple too. Android, Windows Phone, and IOS.

I’ve learnt that they’re all a compromise one way or another, and the grass is always greener. At the end of the day, all I use is YouTube, Lemmy, Facebook and Firefox, so yeah… Any will do!

Self hosting is much closer to gaming on Linux than Windows imo, but it’s a great analogy nevertheless.
