Not surprised, but exceptionally lame.

Yeah, unfortunately im prepared for that being the reality :(
I might go feral if they don’t release on PC at launch. This looks INCREDIBLE, they’ve knocked it out of the park.
They confirmed you can’t swap the screen, but if you want a rebate on the purchase price difference hit up Support
It could be better, but it’s not as horrible as the reviews told me it was. Moved from a Z Fold 4 to an 8 pro - I’ve never ultrasonic, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
The real star of the show is the Level 3 Face Unlock. It works perfectly as long as you’re in a lit room
They use Fi
Yeah the original commenter is absolutely a Fi subscriber
I’m fully aligned here. I’m at the point where I lurk every day, but I remain wishing the niche communities were around. Obviously, I should be contributing myself, but…
You’re preaching to the choir, lol. I’m just saying the hardware on non-entry Chromebooks is outstanding these days. Everything else is a matter of time & licensing
Like any computer, Chromebook hardware sucks if you’re buying entry level sub-$500 devices. The reputation for shitty hardware is generally from people who have only used entry level devices
Our standard fleet for our teachers is Acer Spin 513-2WH. They’re exceptionally nice
Good, glad they’re moving quickly on this
1hr and some change in. I’m loving it so far
Amen on free form multi window being a necessity - I can’t say I’ve ever triple tasked, but I absolutely have had floating windows for quick reference (like infographics/calculator/etc)
Force full screen is a must have - the Pixel Folds currently inability to do this makes it a nonstarter for me
DeX is awesome when I need it. I could live without it, but it’s really nice to use in a pinch
I just picked up Sea of Stars earlier today - i’m about a hour in and enjoying myself so far, no complaints. Otherwise, I picked up Pokemon Go in the past week & i’m really enjoying it. It turns out that a lot of my friends are still playing, and the Pokemon Go Plus+ I use for sleep tracking also gets bonuses in Pokemon Sleep if you use it for Go. Now i’m playing both!
Aw, Sunshine is my favorite title, but I can’t find myself disagreeing on the “Odyssey makes it feel clunky” note. The only point of note for me is that Sunshine feels much more open world than Odyssey does. Probably the nostalgia speaking…
Haha, I’m right there with you. I’m off Twitter & Reddit, I had no alternatives until Sync came back…
Exactly. The other end of it is that a lot of the app-specific advanced functionality made the transition for Day 1 - unless Infinity/else has some tricks i’m unaware of, its currently the most customizable/feature complete app - actual tablet modes, foldable support, biometrics for subaccounts, user painting/tagging for sub accounts, profile backups so you can carry customizations to other android devices - etc.
Its all auxiliary & definitely not required, but losing these features made Lemmy a no-go on mobile for me. It’s also missing some real basic stuff like mod tools & the ability to make posts at all, but i’ve used the app for a decade & the dev is quickly pushing fixes/new features out the door.
Hell yeah. Special shout-out to Sync for Lemmy for reeling me back in as a daily user.
Feels odd that we are unquestionably on the verge of losing this form factor. I like the Pixel Fold approach, but I’ve become fond of the candy bar exterior display. It’s a bit less fun for texting, but makes scrolling social media timelines a treat
The stenographer for our local zoning & planning board still uses a XP netbook. Couldn’t believe my eyes when I first saw it
