Thanks, I actually bought a monitor a few days ago, HP X34 - 3440x1440@165Hz. I’m getting 100fps+ in most games and can hit 165 in some. Definitely not a bad experience by any means and a huge upgrade over my old 1080p 75Hz monitor.

As big a sucker me, lol.

I bought my S20 FE to get away from OnePlus for a change. I’ve been looking to get a smartwatch, and decided I don’t want a Mi Warch or anything that’s a glorified fitness band, so realistically a Galaxy Watch was my only choice. It just so happened that the Watch 5 got released and Buds 2 (non-pro) were bundled for preorders of the watch.

Just like that my single Samsung device turned into three. Then I decided to get a tablet, and at that point it was obvious I’d get a Galaxy Tab, thus completing the Samsung ecosystem lock-in. This shit does work, especially the nearly seamless reconnecting of earbuds between phone and tablet. Not nearly as good as what I’ve seen Apple could do, but honestly, I’m happy.

And now whenever I think about a potential future phone upgrade, Samsung appears to be the best choice. Fuck me haha. Not that I don’t enjoy those toys.

The ecosystem problem is true even if you don’t use apple products. I’m in the same boat, everything’s Samsung here, I’m scared to leave.

Not even gonna give this a click. Of course it’s still q contender. It’s the top of the line offering from the biggest Android OEM on the planet. It will be a contender 12 months from now and it will be a contender 24 months from now.

Hi Mishaal. Asking this for your future review.

1. How’s the vibration motor?
2. How do you find the “gimmicky” Nothing cable, any quality concerns?
3. General fingerprint reader experience
4. Any issues with cellular reception/calls?

And these I believe you could answer before the embargo.

1. Favorite feature of the Nothing OS 2.0
2. How comfortable is it to use when laying in bed? Particularly when holding it above yourself and typing.
3. How big of a difference does it make to use the entire glyph interface vs just the flashlight? Not just for the camera experience but like, looking for stuff under the bed etc. And how easy is it to use it like this (one toggle or digging deep in the settings)?

Monopoly.

What the hell does mandatory overtime mean. That’s just your regular hours then. Is it a way to make your salary look better as it’s for the hours you’re supposedly working?

Awesome, thanks!

29" 21:9 at 1080p has about the same pixel density as 24" 16:9 at 1080p, which is what I’m using right now.

M34WQ is the flat IPS one, right? I asked about it in this thread but my question was about the weong monitor.

On your M34WQ, how is the antiglare coating, in your opinion? Is it as grainy and distracting as people claim it to be?

Oh I’m by no means a monitor snob. Took me two years to realize my IPS monitor wasn’t true 8 bit, but FRC instead haha.

I checked again and that antiglare complaint is about the M34WQ - flat, IPS version of your monitor. I mixed them up.

Appreciate the insight.

The benefits outside of games are half the reason I’m considering an ultra wide. I’m considering a 29" 1080p as a lesser choice, but am considering it regardless. That’s because I don’t exactly use my current second monitor. I’m fine with downsizing, but I’m also happy with a flashy big wide 34" monitor.

That’s what I needed. Thank you. I’ll upgrade the GPU sooner or later (probably later), I knew what I was getting myself into with 8GB of VRAM.

On the note of G34WQC, I’m eyeing that monitor among a few others. Is the antiglare coating really as grainy as some people claim it to be? Supposedly makes text look fuzzy on bright backgrounds.

I’m fully prepared to have to play some games in 16:9 if that’s the case. I naturally want to get the full experience where possible, but I’m ready to compromise.

My potential concern with lowering the resolution is the fact that 1080p and 1440p don’t align that well with one another. Bigger issue with text than with games, but I haven’t had a chance to see that supposed issue with my own eyes.

That is how I feel as well. I haven’t completely given up on reddit just yet, but my usage is going down, and I open reddit more by accident than anything. Lemmy is my new default and I’m not complaining.

I mean it’s in the second sentence of the article… Current Tensor chips are based on Exynos, and Google’s end goal is an in-house designed one.

While I am positive overall, I do not like that some bad habits from reddit are resurfacing here, mostly not being able to have different opinion without someone insulting you.

This is humans were talking about. Humans on the internet. This is inevitable and I wouldn’t specifically attribute this to former reddit users. You have this on Twitter, you have this on Instagram. The “my opinion is the only correct opinion” sentiment is prevalent everywhere today. Sadly.

Oh please. I’m getting ptsd reading this (the offender is napping next to me)

The e-fuels will ensure the “survival” of internal combustion engines, and obviously somebody is lobbying like crazy for that to happen.

Performance and stability can be ironed out. But the UI itself is already really solid. I love the animated comment collapse. This app is gonna be great a few months from now.
