What do you think about the influence mobile apps have on the newer generations, that will grow up unaccostumed to being bored?
So I'm working on my end-of-degree project about mobile apps, and one of the questions I pose in there is the influence these apps may have on younger and maybe not even that young of generations.
While true that mobile and apps related to it have improved our quality of life by creating a space in which we can have fun in any situation, could it also be true that this life of constant distraction from any shape of boredom may impact students life negatively once they seek out work, making the...

I Think Phone VR will/should make a comeback
The future of VR had always been mobile but now I think we are finally going to see competitive options for mobile VR. Samsung had their gear VR and Android had cardboard among other options but they never were competitive with a PC or even a standalone headset experience, but now I think that can change.
Displays:
With 90hz and 120hz displays becoming standard mobile VR is as close as ever and being competitive with Desktop VR solutions. High res mobile displays are already capable of meeting ...

A unique idea regarding lack of 3.5mm jacks in modern smartphones
I have a unique idea, and hope this invention makes it into modern smartphones.
Every phone has speaker grills. What if we put gold contact points in the grills, and make a plastic 3.5mm jack contraption that can snap right into the grill(horizontally). Now, plug any headphones into the contraption.
Yes, it can easily break off/lost like earpods, but still it's better than no jack at all, and doesn't take any internal space in the phone as well. The jack contraption that can also be sold sepa...

Google has tried on and off for years to hide full URLs in Chrome's address bar, because apparently long web addresses are scary and evil. Despite the
Android 11 Beta- Customizing font, menu icon style, menu icon colors, and app icon shapes. Looks like different clock options will be added in the future. Recorded on native screen recorder.
Long press on the home screen and tap 'Styles & wallpapers' to get to the usual wallpaper menu. The bottom of the screen now has three options: style, clock, and wallpaper. The wallpaper menu seems to be unchanged, and the clock menu only has the default option (so far). Here's a video of the style menu that allows you to theme your device with a few presets or customized setups that you can save:

The Nexus name still comes up in a way you don’t see with devices of the same era, even vastly more popular ones like the Galaxy S series.

I'm told Microsoft wants to launch Surface Duo before the Galaxy Fold 2 is announced. So, before August 5th? We're getting close. Assuming plans don't change, Surface Duo should start shipping in less than 2 months.
Feeling cheated with OnePlus 8 Pro camera reviews
Hey,
I posted a similar topic on OnePlus subreddit but I think here it may reach more people. Basically, I got the OnePlus 8 Pro yesterday and took some photos of my dog. Results were pretty bad. Images seem overprocessed as hell and colors are oversaturated. I posted an imgur album that shows this. Look at his hair and grass in the distance on the ultrawide photos, they are smudgy and blended together.
