Is there no way to keep 120hz on while using battery saving mode? S23

Anyone tried OneUI 6.0 yet? Any reason to hold off on installing it?

Sadly appears delayed for everything except the S23

I updated to 6.0

The default font changed. The quick access panel is a bit different. The clock font on the lock screen is bolder.

And my battery life is worse than ever. That's about it.

Anyone updated to the latest Samsung version yet? Can you disable the AI poo poo completely?

Being *told* about new features is not a problem, obviously. Not being able to remove or permanently disable those features is a problem. I don't want to accidentally activate a bunch more more data grabbing features than absolutely necessary.

Settings > advanced features > artifical intelligence > process data only on device

Seems that setting is hidden inside the AI feature set itself? Which requires you to sign in to a samsung account (Which no one should ever do btw. They upload from your phone absolutely everything you do, all apps, all call logs and sms, all data, and sell it all)

Anyway, seems like I don't have to worry about any of that junk then, as it's tied into their lovely data-scraping-and-selling account system.

Yeah, there's no way in hell that Samsung is uploading and monetizing all your SMS and haven't been sued into oblivion. I'm not a fan of ab lot of what Samsung software does, but I'm going to have to see a real source on that.

Regardless, if you don't want to sign into a Samsung account, don't buy a Samsung phone. You need an account to get updates from the Galaxy Store from what I remember, so if you aren't logged in, a whole lot of core device services aren't going to get updated.

Log in and see what they have collected from your phone, and what third parties have been getting access to it

Took until today to get the report back.

Under Calls and Text.

"Your personal information does not exist"

Weird. Don't know what's going on there. They had all my calls and texts.

I think I'm finally looking to move on from my Galaxy S10+, I stuck with it for so long because I was comfortable with it and I liked having the option of expandable memory and a headphone jack. The Screen has been pretty nice as well.

I've been looking at upgrading but also wanting to keep a headphone jack and expandable memory since I listen to and keep gigs and gigs worth of podcast episodes on my phone to listen to when I'm traveling out in the sticks/on a plane etc. I've heard the Sony 1 V is currently the best phone for a person that wants those two things. Anyone here had any experience with them? I know the VI is going to get revealed in like a month with a supposedly shorter but wider screen and max 2k resolution instead of the previous model's 4k. Plus I'm a schmuck with T-Mobile so I know I'll have to cough up the cash to get an unlocked phone.

Using a 3.5mm to usb converter for your headphones is no big deal
