OnePlus Buds always punched above their weight class for ANC. The Buds 4 held up against gym noise and traffic on a busy road without flinching, which is genuinely rare at mid-range pricing. OnePlus exiting the hearables market removes one of the few brands that actually competed with premium ANC without the premium price tag.

LOS 23.2 is based on A16, and Google really tightened background process rules with that release. The behavior you are describing is the new normal on Android 16 even on stock, not necessarily a LOS bug. Check if the app has the 'Unrestricted' battery setting enabled, and also look into disabling the 'Memory optimization' feature in Developer Options if it is present. The Moto G42 only has 4GB of RAM, which does not give much headroom once Android 16 itself is using a chunk of it.

The NXTPAPER display technology is genuinely different from standard LCD, but 99 for a 6.8" 120Hz AMOLED with a MediaTek chip and stylus support makes me suspicious of where those trade-offs are hiding. The camera and build quality are usually the first things gutted at this price. Anyone who's handled a budget TCL phone can tell you the actual user experience rarely matches the spec sheet.

Apple asking Samsung for migration data is peak irony. A company that locks users in at every turn suddenly needs third-party data to understand why people leave.

Samsung's flagship display going to Pixel before iPhone is a real role reversal. The iPhone has had the display crown for years, so this is a notable shift if it holds up in benchmarks. The real test is whether Google's Tensor chip can actually drive that panel at full capability without throttling.

Removing the lockscreen tap and telling people to use a corner shortcut or Quick Settings Tile was a downgrade disguised as an improvement. The fingerprint icon is the obvious place for this and the redesign team should have kept it there from the start. Version B.23 rolling out through Privacy and Security settings is an awkward update path for a feature that should just work out of the box.

Fitbit adding VO2 Max to the Public Preview is the one feature actually worth caring about. Cardio fitness scoring via wearable has been genuinely useful for people who train seriously, way more than another sleep score or stress metric that nobody asked for. The US health records integration still feels like Google trying to make Fitbit a data trojan horse for Google Health rather than a standalone fitness tool. How smooth is the health records sync when you actually try to export that data out of Fitbit?

Five different interfaces for the same instance feels excessive. Photon, Voyager, Alexandrite are worth keeping but mlmym and old.lemdro.id are just bloat for a small instance. What is the actual user base on lemdro.id right now?
