i have to have a car because otherwise i cant drive around the country solving mysteries while being doggedly pursued by federal marshals for a crime i did not commit (9/11)

quote:

...the device still has its share of issues: there’s no waterproofing, no microSD slot, no headphone jack, and some users have reported issues with reception on T-Mobile. Battery life is just okay, and even after several updates the camera isn’t really competitive with any other flagship phone from last year. Essential’s modular accessory system has been a total bust, too.

But most of those criticisms aren’t as bad in the context of a $220 phone.

lol. tell that to a t-mobile customer. "my phone literally doesn't perform its most fundamental task, but it was only $220!!!!"

thing is they’re all looking in the wrong place. the hardware is fine, sometimes even good

the OS on the other hand is bad. some may even say it’s a piece of poo poo

i thought the same thing and asked but what wasnt addressed was whether the ui flips as well because android does not flip upside down

iirc, the os fully supports rotating the screen to any of the four cardinal directions. it's up to the app developer to enable this if they want to

a little speech box keeps popping up in my notification bar for a split second and then vanishes. too quick for me to swipe down and see what's up

it is probably hangouts or messages doing something in the background

but it didn't do that before :tinfoil:
