Yup. Trying to figure out.

Using Google Backup and restore. Not smart switch. Probably that's the issue. Will do hard reset this weekend after I try adhell haha.

Yup.

My setting is same as yours at (4).
I did enable Sync though. Yesterday I turned it off and it didn't make any difference. Still draining lol.
Did you enable Google backup? Settings->Google->Backup->Backup to Google Drive?
Basically all these settings are same to my other phones. lol

During the Google account setup fresh out of box, it will prompt if we want to restore from backup. It will restore call logs, SMS, WiFi passwords, settings etc. All the apps will be pulled from the old phone as well. Probably that's the problem.

Yes. Maybe I should just start all over again lol.

BTW, how much is the extend one year warranty? lol

I also think so lol. OnePlus has probably the highest RV among Androids. Not sure why though. Even with their dual-phone per year!

Sometimes only. But yes, it does happen more frequently. I don't remember my other recent phone need any auto brightness adjustment.

Mine is fine. I actually satisfied with it. No issue here at all. The oleophobic coating also lasts longer than I thought.

Does it stick perfectly? Fingerprint scanner can detect perfectly?

No man. Something ain't right with your software.

So what shall we disable with adhell? All Bixby related stuff?

Don't use your phone when charging. Too risky la bro.

Aiyo why? What's your next phone?

I can't stand tear drop notch. Looks damn irritating. I rather take Mate 20 Pro long notch.

Ah yes. I think Mate 20 Pro is more worth, for what it offers. It's the only formidable rival to S10 series.
Too bad our RN7 here is only 4GB RAM. Not enough IMHO.
You sold yours damn fast man. Posted last night then gone d. Haha

My take is, P30 Pro won't be cheap. P20 Pro was launched at RM3299 with weak free gifts but we had massive qoo10 vouchers. That's why it's selling well. S10 also RM3299 but with strong free gifts. I think P30 Pro will be more expensive or same price. And if they give strong free gift, then it'll affect the Mate 20 Pro.

Wow. Didn't come here for a few days...so much discussions going on.

Haha now you ask the actual questions a neutral should ask. To me, I'm a neutral. I don't own any shares of Samsung or Huawei etc. So, no need for me to get religious and fanboyism over any specific brand. But I do hate iPhone lol.

OK jokes aside, my take:
1. No. I have to agree with you on the reply below. Samsung's ultimate aim was to create a foldable display but it was not possible that time. They could do curves, but to highlight their tech and product differentiation, they did the curve on edges. It's a solution to a problem that did not exist in the first place.... and creating some other problem.
2. Yes and no. The sensor is not bad at all. But it's small. To have a chance to claim the top spot in phone camera race, it has to be as big as the Huawei camera sensor.
3. Yes. It's a wireless protocol for sensor data like Smart Watch, pedometer, bicycle speed and GPS sensor etc. I don't use them. Disable them.
4. No
5. This should be the priority. Yes, Huawei kills apps quite aggressively. Before the P10 series, it's too aggressive until messaging apps also got killed. But nowadays it's just alright. The processor is so fast nowadays reloading an app is not an issue. But battery is an issue if it's draining at background. Huawei phone doesn't need any of those manual toggling of switches like we do in S10. Remember, the phone should work for us, not the other way round.
6. They did not invest much in fast charging.
7. Not useful.

Hehe.

Err...the question is for individual and the answer is also individual, which is my point of view. Not in general. Not giving a politician's answer here to make everyone happy.

I have tested with CPU Spy. The bug mentioned earlier is actually not happening to my phone. My phone is in deep sleep most of the time if not used even after charged. But the draining is still not up to my expectation even after I reset the phone and started all over again. I have not done adhell though. Will do it when got time.

Ah I see.
Anyway, I had reset my phone last weekend and started all over again without restoring from previous Google backup. At first it was OK. Projected almost 5 hours of SOT with purely LTE.
But the next few working days it's so-so again, but not as worse as that before reset. I will give adhell a shot later and see how.

BTW, anyone noticed S10 signal reception is weaker than your previous phones?
I, for one noticed that right away when I got the S10. My previous recent phones are OnePlus 5T, Sony XZ2, and P20 Pro (strongest of all).

According to the infographic, the right hand side use case had Adaptive enabled and ended up lesser charge than disabled. :x hahahaha
Unfortunately I am using celcom and Digi.

I see. What telco bro?

Oh. There's a way to make adaptive power not to change resolution. And it's an unintuitive way.

First u got to disable the Adaptive Power Saving and then click Medium Power Saving. Then choose the resolution you want and click Apply. After that enable back the Adaptive Power Saving and the Medium Power Saving setting will stick after that.

Oh yes. You can link it to your Strava and let it monitor the cadence and power meter data on the fly.

Same here! Celcom.

Ya I know. What I told you earlier was a joke haha.

Fair or not, apart from the comparison, we cannot deny the fact that Samsung's sensor has stagnant since S7E. In fact we can only use up to ISO 800 at manual mode. This is insufficient if they want to claim to be the pinnacle of mobile phone photography.

For photographers, photography is a form of expression. And the more headroom a camera has, the more imagination they can capture.
Tell me a single award winning photo that looks like a reality that we see from our eyes. I can say there is none.

The tone is quite muted and lifeless bro

P30Pro will compete with S10+ bro. And won't be cheap.

P20 Pro was launched at RM3299 but we had qoo10 vouchers.
The Mate 20 Pro was launched at RM3599 but the P30 Pro launch price in China is more expensive than Mate 20 Pro....and a lot more expensive than P20 Pro.

Oh ya. The cheapest M20 Pro now is RM2650. I think it's more worth.

The composition is good and all, but the color is too unsaturated. It probably looks like that in reality but some camera's post processing algorithm has more enticing colour profile (means not realistic).

The photo below was taken from Nokia 808 Pureview. The original file is 40MP without any editing done. I must say the sensor and JPEG algorithm produced quite realistic color but with very smooth tone.



The following pic was out-of-camera photo from Huawei P10's vivid mode and manual white balance. The scene at that time looked spectacular but the photo's color doesn't look like reality at all.



Honestly I don't think Samsung will ever change the color profile because it's been like that since S7 series. So as Huawei's Leica Smooth profile.

You're right. Samsung camera color profile is quite close to the actual scene. Except they the green (e.g. grass and leaves) is a tad too cold and saturated.

There's no right or wrong. Just a matter of preference.

The photo pops out a bit.

Notice the scrolling performance is much better and smoother!
There is an auto rotate pop up button on bottom right of the screen when change of orientation is detected.

Not nice. How often does one go snorkeling? And this item is tied with P30 Pro. Means all first batch PO owner have it but nobody else wants it.
Basically not much resale value.


Not bad.

True. Samsung keeps the best for itself except during S8 time. I think Mate Porsche series had the same screen.

Yes.
But I'm not sure whether can set dual LTE standby. Why would you need dual LTE?
Yes can use dual WhatsApp.
