Uhhh are you talking about Android browsers? Because then try Samsung's, it has addins like AdBlock to make internet usable. The desktop Firefox works fine for me still. Otherwise I'd second Vivaldi out of the chromium stuff

quote:Google quit making tablets in 2015, came back for Chrome OS tablets in 2018, then quit for another three years, and now it's planning to launch a new Android tablet in 2023. Surely, we'll get another Google laptop someday, but we'll just have to wait a few more years. I completely forgot about their tablet plans. What are the chances they get shitcanned before one even comes out?

Endless Mike posted:tiny phone wanters, your desire has arrived Not the smallest, there's a 2.5" one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001452960369.html I'm considering getting one (or probably the XS12 which is slightly larger but way better) as a backup that I could use for traveling, because smashing the screen on the S22 Ultra really loving sucks, as it turns out.

The Management posted:speaking of bad software… a bug in pixel phones for the last 5 years has been including the full image data in files cropped by the pixel phone’s image markup tool. in many cases the original image can be recovered from these. Lmao so nobody noticed that the cropped files are the same size as the original in 5 years?

~Coxy posted:The line/gradient up along the crease looks just like the wear mark on every single foldable, so what's the difference? It's not about the crease, there's a part of the OLED panel that's not covered by anything and then the flat bezels mean that anything in that area will get mashed into the screen:  https://arstechnica.com/google/2023/06/rip-to-my-pixel-fold-dead-after-four-days/

qirex posted:the fact that the economics of folding phones means one can purchase a good phone and a good tablet for several hundred dollars less should have made them a non-starter but people just want to make it happen If I'm carrying a bag, I'll just take my laptop. If not, it would be good to have a larger screen sometimes.

Also because the iphone is garbage as well. It's cool and good to dunk on google for being a bunch of incompetent morons but I've had an iphone before and it was even more frustrating to use.

I've had one of their WM phones and the Mk1 Desire and both were good but I think they just got hosed the way of most Android OEMs that are not Samsung due to millions of budget headset earing the market and no real way to differentiate themselves.
