are there any matte-finish transparent cases for the 8 pro? I don't care about visual clarity through the case so much as not having that greasy gloss plastic feel.

repiv posted:maybe a covid-era project that took too long to get to market? the package name being "health" indicates they had ambitions of it being for body temperature monitoring at some point it sounds a lot like this, though I'm not sure whether the talk about lacking certification was because they weren't even trying or whether it was like that ecg function in some watches

repiv posted:i just go back to ye olde on screen buttons when using a case with a raised edge the settings for "back sensitivity" are named badly and are actually the settings for how wide the edge swipe activation areas are: Setting them to medium helps, especially with a case, in my experience

repiv posted:moto maker was cool, someone other than motorola should do that again I still wish they'd make more wood-backed phones. Those moto X wood backs looked and felt great.

I was really impressed with the extent of coverage last summer, I think the only dead spots were passing geographic ones while driving from Reykjavik to Akureyri, but even clear out on the end of that Western peninsula sticking into the Greenland Sea I was able to do a video call with folks back home.

Bright Bart posted:I mean it in the most intuitive way. Does carrying around legal briefs in a Jansport backpack feel serious? Does breaking news to a patient while wearing either a bright orange Swatch or a diamond encrusted Movado? A Miata or a Humvee feel like a serious car? seriousness isn't a style it's a behavior

Bright Bart posted:As for covers I do have one anecdote about that. I was filming a video and for the scene where I'm showing an app on my screen to the camera the director told me to take the cover, which was a basic off-white Samsung cover that I thought looked professional/clinical enough, off to make it clear it was an "adult" (not my words) phone. Imo this seems more like the director having a certain vision for the shot (not meaning that for better or worse, just that the director directs, "their" set etc) and may not have accepted any case on the phone at all. It doesn't seem like they were outright judging you though, at least.

I can't speak directly to the 7a but in my usage the 8 pro is an improvement across the board from the 7 pro - better thermals, better battery, snappier performance, better fingerprint reading, etc. It's more on the side of a noticeable step forward rather than a leap, so you'll likely find a lot of arguments over whether it's really better if you can't get 30 hours of youtube out of the battery or what have you.

butt dickus posted:it doesn't matter because it's always the same deranged thing where people go "i need to carry all my media with me at all times on my always-connected device even though it's more than i could reasonably consume in a fortnight." they justify it by coming up with ridiculous scenarios the same way gun owners dream of being a "good guy with a gun." it's not actually harmful in this case so just let them suffer through their sub-par phone to satisfy whatever digital hoarding problems they have well then consider those folks told

bull3964 posted:I didn't say hire. I said get competing quotes with rough ranges and availability. This is creating an opening and removing an hour or two of work from your plate and making it easier to start something. Final decision making and details are still up to you. huh never thought of it that way due to using thumbtack and/or texting/email for driveway, kitchen, plumbing, and roof work over the past idk 8-10 years. I can see some contractors "just preferring phone/face to face" but around here those guys are all overpriced, overbooked, and understaffed, I can see a robot just wasting their time for spite, yeah.
