You mean the circle below the cameras? That is not a button, this phone has an active cooling system, yes you heard it right. The "button looking" thing is the fan's protective grill, and the blue "ring" is the built-in RGB lights inside shinning through the gap for air to flow through. There is another set of openings on the side of the phone that gives another opening for air to flow through.

Because of active cooling this phone has no IP rating at all. Based on benchmarks and reviews I've seen so far they managed to allow the GPU to have nearly no thermal throttling, with the active cooling system. However, disappointingly, it does throttle the CPU a LOT still.

Ubuntu Touch, perhaps? Lol

Hmmm it looks pretty but is it just me or Weather Master's UI looks soooo much more iOS-like than Breezy Weather?

That's the thing, for multitasking a foldable's screen size is not even remotely as transformative as a 10+ or even 12 inches proper tablet, while for just the most basic "have each side for different thing", which I guess is like the lowest possible standard we can have for multitasking, a conventional non-foldable phone doesn't do it that much worse, you just turn your phone horizontal and do split screen in landscape orientation.

On the other hand, with a 12" proper tablet you can meaningfully have 4 or even 6 windows showing on your screen at the same time, for some real multitasking, at a moment's notice.

My point is that current foldable phones don't offer enough screen size, to be transformative enough to justify the long list of downside you have to deal with, like fragile screen, screen fold crease, etc.

Consider Sony Xperia 1 series then, they always have fully open policy regarding to unlocking and rooting with no deliberate restrictions whatsoever, took me less than a minute to root my Xperia 1 VI shortly after I got it. Also their very AOSP-like ROMs make modding much easier too.

Also I bet you don't find many other flagship phones in 2024 that still have both SD card and headphone jack lol

I do. The only reason I don't want any of the current foldable phone is because they are still too small to be a proper "tablet but fits pocket when folded".

With a tri-fold system it could easily have a main screen size beyond 10", and then it's finally getting into proper tablet sizes.

I'm sorry but what is making you think social stereotypes in the US are not prevalent for the same reasons social stereotypes are prevalent in Germany?

Love Kate on Linux, but is it just me that Kate on Windows is extremely slow to open compares to literally everything, even Sublime? My system has i7-12800HX and everything is installed on gen 4 NVMe SSDs so specs shouldn't be an issue.

Though I've always wondered if that's always consistently the case, and when that's not the case is there any mostly consistent way to identify the separator symbol in the URL text strings :/
