To add to that, in a lot of countries regulators can't even keep up with basic technology

I'm switching over from android to iOS next week. Can sometime please share an app that I can install via Play Store?

Is there a correlation between transfer speed and charging speed? If you don't have the pro, will it also result in slower charging?

Man, this sounds awful. I don't even know what to do anymore. I think the most infuriating thing in the pixel for me is audio output. I'm always connected to some Bluetooth audio device. Switching between them(or deciding I want my output to be from the phone's speakers) is insane. Only if some media is playing, can I switch otherwise I have to either go start playing something on Spotify or disconnect devices to be able to see the option of picking my output. The functionality is there but they've locked it behind some arbitrary logic. And coming from OnePlus I was blown away that suddenly I need 2 hours to completely charge my phone?! Wtf! 2 hours? For a phone that barely lasts the day on regular use!

I've been an Android user all my life. Nexus, 2 one pluses, Samsung flip, and now on Pixel. I've also been pretty anti apple. I feel Android isn't being able to hold it's weight very well anymore. I find the experience a little meh and the below average battery doesn't help. I'm not happy with the Pixel at all. Back in the day, I felt Apple was just overpriced and didn't bring anything to the table and was almost exclusively garbage. Over the last one year I've been thinking more and more about giving it a try. I might switch into an iPhone 15 this year to see how it is. What doesn't help is trying to pick TWS earbuds. All of them have some issue or the other. The new XM5s rely too heavily on foam tips (and Sony made a design where finding third party replacement is a pain), Beoplay Ex has average ANC which is important to me. From all my research, it's looking like the Airpods might be the most well rounded in what I'm looking for, I just need to compromise on the sound quality. I might get the airpods even if I decide to stick to Android. I don't know, man. I feel like there's nothing I'm truly happy with in the market anymore (and I'm willing to spend, just give me something good) and I'm hoping Apple is the least worst of the lot so I might give it a try this year. Windows is the only thing I can never switch away from. Sorry for the rant, I've been struggling a bit to find good products but it's like all these companies just hate us.

 

First day on lemmy and I'm hoping to see a lot more of my favourite reddit subs.

Additional question - will we seea similar influx of bots on lemmy?
