    Reason For Using a Case

    Nobody wants to keep their driving license, credit/debit card and some money in their wallet/flip case?

    Which launcher do you use on Your device?

    MS Launcher for vertical scrolling, unread count (although for Outlook it only shows number of email acoounts with new mail), layout possibilities and backgrounds. In recent months it has been closed by the OS many times, not sure if it is the launcher or Huawei/Horor that causes it. When I...

    Is a screen protector really necessary?

    Son dropped S7 in flip case from sofa arm rest to metal lamp base (0.5m fall). Flip open (always on screen OCD 🤔). Screen first. The screen cracked but still works (maybe with some glitches in touch). No bumper case would have helped here. Stick with screen protector, closed case, good luck or...

    How many charge their Pixel 2's overnight?

    Charge level and temperature affect storage life. When in use, I'd be more worried about temperture (than having battery full enough for unexpected photo shooting or pokemon hunt), so better take the phones out of the pockets 😂 Charging logic is built inside phone, so it doesn't matter what...

    About forum readability

    Thanks to all! I posted to official thread also with an image of front page... I was a bit afraid that it would either kill the forum or show in 1:1 scale (which would had been great fun) ;) It's good to hear that improvements are coming, I'm looking forward to see them in action. As a...

    New Forum Design: Official Feedback Thread

    This is my problem: Summarize! Compress! There is no need to list every Samsung, Google etc. etc. etc. model and their subsections on front page. Manufacturer is enough, models can be shown inside their own sections.

    AC blocking users who use ad blockers now?

    Don't tell this to admins, but with Ghostery (ad tracking disabled), ad-blocker can be turned off for AC and WC. No ads, no nags, commenting and posting works. I do understand that a site needs income from ads to operate, but it's also about balance between having many ads and having many...

    Nougats on 7% of phones, marshmallow on a little more, the rest on lollipop and back,why O already?

    :D Google makes updates and fixes to some old android versions and tries to do better (in their standards) with every new android version. But the system with OEM drivers and OEM changes and optimizations and OEM UIs makes updating effort too big for old (dozens of) devices. Maybe OEMs could...

    About forum readability

    Android Central forum front page is a very, very long list of sections, everything brought to front page. 37 screens. How do you use that? Front page should be table of contents. Listing only major topics. Did you know there is a Pi section? Ain't nobody have time to scroll that far? There are...

    Trading

    If there will be Pokémon trading, I hope it will not work like this :D Items to trade should be approximately of the same "value". Otherwise, what is the point of the gameplay?

    Good phones for Pokemon go.

    Honor 7 Lite (5C variant), Alcatel Idol 3 and Lenovo 8" tablet with FHD display and Intel CPU - works with all ;) Idol is only one with gyro, so no AR for the others. Honor uses 2-4% battery / km, most of the time in power save position ;) Huawei Y3 however is a No Go ;)

    Stereo view - mono camera?

    Google Cardboard allows users to experience virtual reality, stereo images and 3D-entertainment without breaking a bank. But it is 100% one-way solution, content provided by others. Now, if manufacturers would add another identical camera module to the bottom end of the phone (symmetrical...
