Gotta agree with packer guy. Charge my phone no higher than 85% and almost never let it go below 25%. The way battery chemistry works basically means you'll get the most longevity out of it by never fully charging or discharging it. You can get up to 3 or 4 times the typical battery longevity...

That's exactly my point though, there are studies coming out now that are pointing to the possibility of low frequency NIR now having affects in ways (I assume) they didn't think (or simply couldn't) to study before. Our bodies pretty much run on electrical currents so it seems plausible that...

I can appreciate your sentiment. However, I don't think we should have to worry about this type of **** in the first place. They should simply be doing their due diligence and making sure their products are safe to begin with.

Take a look at this if you really think there's no reason to be worried. http://www.5gappeal.eu

And who do you think funds the studies that claim it's safe? Those who can reap some sort of gain from the use of such technology.

I'm still unconvinced, I've seen many studies other than the one in my original post claiming that they aren't necessarily safe. You should read some of them as well

Very interesting, thanks for the detailed response. And while I can appreciate the fact that you have direct knowledge and experience with working in the industry, I still can't help but feel worried. Just as an example I found a study talk about how even though the radio frequencies aren't...

So...now that 5g is rolling out what are your opinions on the research out there? It's well known that cell phone towers are dangerous because of radiation they emit. With them planning on deploying hundreds of thousands of small cell towers to make 5G feasible (the radio frequencies don't...

I've got a pixel 2 xl and lately I've been having issues with apps randomly not loading completely. For instance, I'll open Instagram and have nothing but a white save for the UI elements themselves and sometimes I'll also get a spinning icon like it's having connectivity issues or something...

I assume you have hdr+ enhanced on?

Yup same here, very weird

this literally just happened to me 3 times in the last 20 minutes. not sure what caused it as I've had 0 issues since I bought it. not running beta software or anything like that. very strange, may have to contact Google

not too sure about that, but I find it easy enough to take a picture and then go to that pictures info and just hit the microphone icon on the keyboard to use voice to dictate what the description should be if you don't like typing

unfortunately I had to factory reset and go back to Oreo. just picked up a versa and the Fitbit app kept crashing during setup. so my watch would've been useless until the public release in August or whatever.

Yup, definitely takes about 1-1.5 seconds for the screen to turn on for me
