I’ve made a large number of custom prints, and all of them were created using TinkerCad. It’s an amazing toolkit, stupid easy to use but versatile. That is … until something needs a tiny adjustment somewhere. That’s when I feel it would’ve been neat to use parametric CAD instead....
I use the professional version of Onshape for work. If you create all the parts that relate to each other in one part studio. It can be all contextual. So changes that are made to one part can automatically update on the mating part. I would recommend you watch onshapes introductory videos on their website. That are surprisingly informative and short and to the point. Also their help guide has almost a video for every tool in it.
Are you in the US? If so what carrier are you using. I was looking at the POCO F5 before getting a great deal on a OP11. I would have still staved money going with the POCO but ultimately chose the OnePlus because no carrier would tell me if the POCO would work or not on their towers. Bands wise it said it would but the carriers said unsupported.
Anyway, I second this phone OP. It has great specs for the price. Having gone op5t > op7pro > OP11. The POCO was really tempting me besides the clarity on whether or not carriers would support it.
That’s good to know. I had at&t when I was looking but recently switched to Google Fi which I think primarily uses Tmo towers. But that sounds about right iirc based on when I was looking at them.
I’ve been keeping tabs on it’s xda forum and seems to have taken off much faster than the OnePlus 11’s. There is only 4 roms that are solid enough to use daily. While it seemed like there is much more activity on the f5’s forum.
Over the past couple months I’ve had the pleasure to help develop and iterate this bike. 3 swingarms, 3 subframes, 2 forks & leading links, 2 seats, and a few different shock lengths to get to this point. It’s going on a 1000 mile journey this weekend to check suspension geometry and highway cruising behavior. Hopefully only...
While flagship smartphones boast impressive features, spending $1,000 is not a prerequisite for a satisfying Android experience nowadays.

My wife has a 6a. A few things that she has noticed but not deal breakers. After installing a glass screen protector the finger print reader is really hit and miss. I went to enable face unlock but Google doesn’t allow it on the 6a. Custom ROM would solve that, however I don’t know about graphene. Not the best cell reception. Not a huge case selection. At least compared to non (a) versions. Battery life under heavy use is just ok.
I like to switch it up to see what’s out there pretty often though I’ve been using Nova since jellybean and before that it was ADW before development stopped for a while. However I like, Neo launcher (foss) for a trimmed down Nova like experience and Shade launcher also foss for a very simple yet pleasing to look at launcher. I find Kvaesito while a cool approach kind of buggy and not very smooth even on my OnePlus 11. Lunar launcher is also cool but not very customizable compared to Nova anyway. Really I just wish someone would bring Helix launcher to modern Android, probably mainly for nostalgia reasons.
Hey guys! I’m looking for an EDC light that’s 800+ (pref 1000+) lumens, tailcap switch, rechargeable via mini USB or USB-C, and less than $50– is that price point delusional?...
However you can get 18650s with USB-C ports for charging. Or just grab a couple of decent Molicel batteries and an Eastshine 2 bay charger and just swap batteries.
Worried about forgetting to swap batteries? The aux lights can function as a battery indicator. You can also click the button 3 times and it’ll blink the battery voltage. So you should always know when to swap batteries.
There is a ton of led choices. You can also get 2 of one and 2 of another if that tickles your fancy. High cri or raw output. Warm or cool color temperature.
I just mentioned this in a comment, but thought it might be helpful for a larger audience. I’m not affiliated with these people, but I would really really like a smaller Android phone. They also seem motivated to try and make something happen.
The Asus Zenfone 9 or 10 fits the majority of the spec list with a screen size of 5.92". It barely sits under 6" but it does. However the display size requirements of that website is a little confusing. First it says sub 6" then it says it must be 5.4" ish.
Sunbird is more than iMessage isn’t it? I had the beta installed for a little bit and it was messenger, sms, iMessage, and a few others that haven’t used.
That’s bizarre. That’s the same version I have. The only thing I can think of is that your system language isn’t English and maybe it removes that option. ¯_ (ツ) _/¯ If that is the case it’s unfortunate that it doesn’t work for different languages.
You could try switching the system language to verify that that is what is happening. I have no idea what kind of effort it takes to add that feature for other languages but you could always ask the Dev.
I like openboard because of the similarities to gboard and this fits the bill well. However I do agree that this fork doesn’t seem active. But I have a feeling that perhaps it was just a personal project to add swipe to openboard.
I mean the mediatek is nearly 460k points off, nearly 35%. That’s a pretty big difference. Is it noticeable by the user in most applications probably not but they aren’t close. The actual newest chips are though nanoreview.net/en/soc-list/rating
In terms of tablet scores yes. And I never said better but I did say closer. Even at that using kimovil as the source the 8 gen 2 in the Tab s9 ultra is only 1 percent behind the M2 in the iPad pro 6th gen. Which could be the difference between testing environments, thermal management, and straight up just better/worse quality silicon from chip to chip.
As far as the Dimensity 9200, you said soc comparison not tablet.
Thank you! And this was just a quick edit on Snapseed. My phone (Oneplus 7pro) isn’t known for its very ok cameras. It is also just an edited jpeg so there is only such much information I can hope to recover from the highlights and blacks. I normally use Lightroom or Darktable if it is shot with my DSLR. I’ll have to check out that program though.
