Also there on Vivo X90 Pro+. The frame duration visible here correctly translates to 15 fps, as the only high-res sensor mode at 30 fps they implemented is direct 8k which they didn't expose, at least as a raw stream. A big part of why these tables finally…
A correction after years:

dumpsys media.camera is specifically android.scaler.availableStreamConfigurationsMaximumResolution. Some OEMs (most recent example can be X300 Ultra) actually do the least effort high res nuking. Their android.scaler.availableMinFrameDurationsMaximumResolution is filled with promising data, but the actual table (which should control the app access to formats) is nowhere to be seen. It's misleading, but the goal was never to support third party apps, the goal is to pass CTS with lowest developer resource spend.😐7❤1👀1
Nekogram, a Telegram client present in Google Play was officially (confirmed in author's communication after being found out) uploading user phone numbers to a bot. The published code wasn't matching the binaries. This wouldn't happen on F-droid (with reproducible builds and probably also without them), which Google never even assured of being unaffected by the hostile design of 24h wait before app installation.

Major. Google started (perhaps months ago, but without announcing it) to enroll all new apps into "automatic protection" (PairIP) by default, trying to scare developers from disabling it. As I explained in the past, it fails to protect the apps, while interfering with users who install genuine, unaltered builds.
This means that googled, bootloader locked devices not logged into a Google account will slowly turn unusable whenever you need a single app from GP.

As much as I'm concentrated on compact devices, Nubia Z80 Ultra is very much exploit-unlockable, so if there's something you'd like in it over Mi 17 Ultra, feel free to go for it.
Bonus: I made a chaotic write-up about my experience with Mi 17 for the period I owned it, it's available at: @xiaomi_pudding
I may buy it again some day, but as a Chinese variant so that it makes economic sense.

Apple’s New iPhone Update Is Restricting Internet Freedom in the UK — Big Brother Watch
A recent iPhone software update is quietly changing how millions of people in the UK access the internet — and most people don’t yet realise the scale of what’s happened. With the release of iOS 26.4, Apple has introduced mandatory age and identity checks…

With all factors in mind, consider it loud and clear: OnePlus 16 isn't coming to Europe.
OnePlus could be kind like Xiaomi in the long forgotten days and release + support global builds on Chinese units because you can't """pirate""" (pay less) by buying a Chinese unit when it'll be the only option to get one. But as it looks like OPlus management wants to convince itself that phasing out OP in favor of Oppo and Realme is the way to go, we should expect more actions that inevitably drop its market share.
In any case, it's a good time to buy OP15T if you're into the only compact 8eg5 unlockable without an exploit.

Keet relies on Google's Firebase cloud messaging for chat message notifications without saying a word about it, while claiming to be fully P2P.
They also make a big deal out of going open source, which is something they're yet to do after years. I'm sure I'm just scratching the issues with it.

FYI to any Android app dev: This toggle in Play console doesn't effectively secure your app against tampering. Instead, it'll prevent sideloading the app even while it's a completely untouched original binary. This means that if Google Play is the sole distributor…
"A cracked version is a version of your app that still works when it’s been modified or when it’s been installed outside Google Play if you require Google Play installation."
Google's definition says APKMirror is full of cracked apps xD
