Opinion: The lack of "Dual Recording" (switching between cameras while recording) is a major blindspot/oversight in the industry.

After using Samsung for years and switching back to Motorola recently, I was shocked to see that you could not switch cameras (from front to back) while recording. I did a bit of research and it seems to me that Samsung is the only major phone manufacturer that has this feature. Not Motorola, not Google (Pixel), not Sony, not even Apple.

Let's talk about the Tensor G2 modem: Is mobile data drain still the biggest bottleneck for mid-range Androids?

I’ve been testing the Pixel 7a lately, and the battery disparity between Wi-Fi and Mobile Data is staggering. Even when strictly locked to 4G LTE with screen brightness under 50%, the device aggressively overheats and struggles to push past 6 hours of Screen On Time (SOT).

This seems to be a recurring theme with Samsung-fabbed modems in the Android ecosystem compared to Qualcomm equivalents.

For those using Tensor-powered Pixels or Exynos devices, how much of a battery hit are you taking when off Wi-Fi? Do you think Google's shift away from Samsung foundries in the upcoming generations will finally solve this, or is this just the reality of compact Android phones right now?
