Android OEMs need to finally step up the game of hapatic feedback.

Been enjoying my Android phones for past few years and just got a 11 Pro and Im just blown away by the haptic feedback. It's trully a feature that transforms the way you use the phone in a 3D way. The keyboard literally feels like you are pressing on a physical keyboard. It's that good. The feedback is so strong and feels like 3D not just flat boring "bzzzzz". Ive been told Google has improved it with latest Pixel phones which is good news. But seriously most of Android phones don't even come cl...

The post-camera technology race with screen Hz. Is it worth it?

Dear fellow Redditors,

I keep noticing the uprise of the latest trend of going from 60, to 90/120Hz screen refresh time. Hence why I would like to ask those lucky owners of flagships with such high refresh rates, if they actually use them, or have disabled them for the longevity of the phone battery. I see this criteria being mentioned in every single damn review, either as a pros, or a con, although I’m not sure to what extent this technology is useful in every day life. Could you kindly elab...

Geekbench Projections for SD 865+?

I saw a recent news article about the Snapdragon 865+ being clocked in AnTuTu and allegedly boasting some very impressive numbers. I haven't been able to find anything about what this thing could potentially hit in Geekbench.

Here is why I'm interested in this:

Based on my very limited understanding of AnTuTu and Geekbench, as well as the tentative AnTuTu score of the SD 865+ mentioned above, I am guessing that there is a possibility that the SD 865+ could potentially beat out the A13 processo...

Am I the only one who hates the new overview menu in Android 11?

Can someone please help me understands how taking screenshots and text selection is a more useful or common activity than quick access to Google, recent apps, or the app drawer?

I can't remember the last time I took a screenshot on my phone. And I have NEVER used the overview menu for copying and pasting text. These are such rare use-cases that they don't even deserve public exposure in any primary UI.

I thought I'd get use to the new overview menu in Android 11, but the more I use it, the m...

IMO, picture-in-picture and other floating apps suck

I don't like chat bubbles and pip. I don't know why it's on by default. When I close Google maps, I want to see what's on my screen, but the pip hides a part. When I get a message, it's already in my notifications and I can reply. The Messenger bubbles is annoying. And there's also split screen if I really need two apps at the same time. Do you guys use pip?...

The Lenovo Chromebook Duet, the chromeOS tablet for those who want an android tablet.

What, what? a chromebook? I dont want a chromebook, I want an android tablet.. I use way more than "Chrome" on my tablet. Well, the duet does run android apps. And, it runs them well. :)

The duet starts at $249 for the 64gb model which is HALF the cost of the core m3 pixel slate, the current king of chromebook tabets. (opinion) The kicker here is that the duet includes the keyboard/trackpad/kickstand accessories IN THE BOX, something that it's competitors don't offer. One of the biggest reasons...

Am I the only one who misses the lock animation?

In the old times when I used to push the lock button (or the screen timed out) the screen would turn off like a CRT monitor in the older versions of android like the below video

/r/android reviews: Huawei and Honor line.

Device reviews are everywhere these days. From big name technology websites to lesser known blogs, and to the rising stars on YouTube. You can find hours upon hours of review content on most any well-known device out there. However a lot of these places do not focus on long term usage and fail to mention how devices hold up over the long term.

Additionally for those of you who like to hear about devices from actual users, it's hard to find a good place with reviews that aren't scattered all ove...

Do you think we'll ever see subscription based or purchasable GSIs on Android?

This thought came to me while discussing the Pixel 4\\4a(5G)\\5 with friends this weekend.
Do you think we're getting close to a point where Google\\Samsung\\LG\\Sony\\etc could start offering a GSI (for a price) which could be flashed to any (fully Treble compatible) phone?
It would give people more freedom to purchase hardware based on personal requirements and also get the software experience we lean towards?

Personally I think its what google could possibly be pushing for long term wit...

Is Android 11 too bland? What are 1-2 major changes you would want Android to release in future years?

I haven't tried Android 11 beta yet but whatever reviews I have heard or watched, it appears bland and unexciting. iOS 14 has lot of visual changes so definitely a bit more exciting. A lot of those things are already available in Android but Apple seems to have implemented them better.

While I agree that the Android platform is matured now but still if you get a chance to suggest 1-2 major changes to Android in future years, what would they be?...
