Sustained brightness over the whole screen and peak brightness over a smaller portion of the screen usually aren’t the same. And most phones indeed ignore the set display brightness in order to display the hdr content as accurately as possible. Which does make sense to some extent but can be annoying.
Most phone cameras also have a much wider focal length than our eyes though, which makes faces look a bit skinnier. I definitely look better in wide angle than in reality or telephoto.
And it’s voice based navigation is way ahead of Google’s. I mean, both get you there, sure. But no google, I don’t need to know I’m taking a turn on ST257315, when the road doesn’t even have a name sign. Telling me to turn right towards XY at the stop sign (as apple does) makes wayyy more sense.

If Telegram is backdoored, not for Russia. While the founder and owner is Russian, him and the company left Russia in 2014 when they didn’t want to comply with their regime (I think. Don’t remember the details). The company is based in Dubai since 2017.

At his old company, my dad got a 500€ bonus because he wrote a MS Outlook macro to automate some specific email to excel and/or calendar data transfer (I think, been a while). As my dad is a huge TNG fan (initiating me into the fandom at a young age after literally naming me in part after his fav captain), the UI was obviously also based on LCARS.

The non three dot ellipse gets worse on some devices that replace the "..." (three individual dots) with '…' (one symbol with three dots that have slightly different spacing to the three individual dots). "...." looks wrong but it’s worlds better than "….".
