I don’t get what those companies try to achieve by automating writing (by spewing statistically probably prose), reading (by badly summarizing text cobbled from excerpts without the ability to make any sense of it), art, photography, music, all standardized to the lowest common denominator.
I’m not buying a new device that try to impose any of this hype. For now, Apple has decided to “punish” the users in the European Union by holding the Apple Intelligence features hostage. FINE BY ME!
Yea. There are very few machine learning driven features that would actually improve my life in a meaningful way. I feel much more „punished“ by the omission of iPhone mirroring on mac than any Apple Intelligence feature.
Give me back my physical keyboard, and I’ll be happy alongside better battery life (or removable batteries).
The last thing I want is a phone I can mistake for a table mat when I’m tired, which I feel is how phones are going. What’s the new average screen size now? 27" or is that next year’s model?
Literally just give us phones that can do what they could do 10 years ago, with modern batteries.
this. put the sensors, audio jack, notification led, ir blaster back!
And fuck off with the ai!
LED notifications and physical keyboards. I miss my Blackberry
I just want both the Touch ID and the Face ID on my damn phone…
When I replaced my 5 year old phone the only two benefits I saw was OLED screen (never going without again) and the battery life going from maybe a day to like 40 hours
People have been asking for thicker phones with more battery for years. Wth
I just bought two brand new three year old phones to replace the identical broken ones we currently have because the current models have less functionality for more than we paid for these.
To get the same functionality cost twice as much.
And we still get three years warranty…
I totally forgot it even had that. The people I talk to only talk about the new side button.
Insanely true, I didn’t give a shit about 90% of the features on my new phone once my old one broke down and I got a Pixel 8, but I was delighted to go from a worn-out 12 hour battery life to a 64 hour battery life. I would actively like to uninstall any sort of current AI function from my phone if it could increase my battery longevity by even 1%.
Also: ew, Apple.
Edit: Really annoyed it doesn’t have a headphone jack though
It feels like yesterday some guy was arguing against me here on Lemmy about my personal choice of wanting a longer battery life.
WELL LOOK AT ME NOW BRO
