    Video file unsupported (still plays but can't be edited with Kinemaster)

    I've been using the S6 to edit video from my Sony ZV1 using Kinemaster. This has been working really well but recently I've been having issues with some video files showing as unsupported and being greyed out in gallery after I've transferred them using a USB C SD card adapter. This was the...

    DEX on plus Tab S6?

    Ok, so this is spooky. I read your post on the same day that I actually ordered one of those hubs - it's a Levin USB C hub and was around £16 from Amazon. It works fantastically and means I can easily connect a usb keyboard and mouse as well. Only slight downside is that although the hub...

    Gear Fit 2 pro battery life seems poor.

    I picked up a used gear fit 2 pro and I'm wondering whether the battery is ok. I charged it fully and then left it off for around 24 hours. When I turned it back on it was at 92%. I went out on my bike and tracked the ride, which was just over 20 mins. I was also streaming my Spotify playlist...

    DEX on plus Tab S6?

    It's not really a conspiracy, it's a well known fact that companies, including Samsung don't include the necessary accessories in order to get the customer to spend more. Think fast chargers, under specced USB C cables, Apple pencil, and so on. However, you make a good point and I need to look...

    Screen mode recommendations on my Galaxy Tab S6? Can't seem to find one that's just right.

    I'm a bit disappointed with the limited options in terms of screen modes. It seems that vivid (no matter how this is configured) is too saturated and natural mode is a bit too washed out. It would be great if there was something in between or more screen modes like there are on many Samsung...

    Smart View not working?

    I can't get smart view to work either. Have a note 9 and they won't communicate with each other. WiFi direct and flow working fine.

    DEX on plus Tab S6?

    This is a shame and the cynical person in me thinks that this is a more a ploy to get people to buy extra hardware rather than a technical limitation.

    DEX on plus Tab S6?

    Is it possible to connect the tablet to a PC using just a USB C cable in order to get DEX to work? I connect it up and nothing happens. This works with my Note 9 - am I doing something wrong or is it just not possible without extra hardware with this tablet?

    USB otg plus micro SD card inside tablet

    I had been using my tab S6 with a kiwibird USB C SD card reader and this worked great. I ordered a Samsung 128gb U3 micro SD card but my issue is that while the micro SD card is in the tablet, the USB card reader does not get recognised when I am using a 64gb Toshiba SDXC card in the card...

    New battery for note 5

    Has anyone got any recommendations for any stores or online companies in the UK that can change the note 5 battery?

    Differences between V10 and V20?

    I see what you did there but I have to disagree. I prefer the v10 to the v10. If you watch this video, the commenter reckons that the v20 looks nothing like the v20, which is interesting. https://youtu.be/ayfW1zIn_zs

    Buttonless

    I thought it was 4 taps? Thats what I always used. I love the knock on feature but it doesn't always work 100% of the time for me. In fact this is the same as the FPS..

    Will Bluetooth sound be improved? (theoretically)

    Don't forget the lg v10 already supports apt-x so sounds awesome. I have several headphones and speakers that also support apt-x and they sound great to me. There is a higher quality codec now that's even better than apt-x, but this would require upgrading all your headphones and speakers to...

    Buttonless

    No, the back button functions as the power button only. However, lg has implemented a cool feature called knock on which enables you to wake the phone by tapping twice on the screen. You then tap twice on any area of space on the home screen or on the notification area to put the phone to sleep...

    September 6th can't come fast enough

    Having used phones with real buttons and onscreen buttons I must say I'm in favour of onscreen buttons. It's a better use of screen estate, you can customise the order and function of the buttons (I have 5 on my v10) and for me it looks a lot cleaner and I don't find myself accidentally pressing...
