Samsung Galaxy phones have a 'StandBy' mode too; how to use it

Apple is seeing high praise for bringing a new landscape version of always-on display, which is meant to showcase a...

I actually set this up a few months ago, with a routine to only rotate the AOD to landscape when I was wireless charging between certain times. I turned it off though as my magnetic charger wasn't really strong enough to securely hold the S23 Ultra in landscape orientation.

It did make me chuckle when it was announced at the Apple keynote lol

Apple and Samsung copy each other all the time. The thing you need to know here is when apple does something it is perfected.

I've been thinking of VR headsets like pickle and grapefruit ice cream... There is absolutely no question that Apple has come up with the best recipe for pickle and grapefruit ice cream. But it is still pickle and grapefruit ice cream, which very few people even want to try, and it makes a significant number of people who do try it throw up.

Sure, most of us will try pickle and grapefruit ice cream if a friend has a tub and offers us some, but are we going to go out and buy our own after trying it? probably not.

All that said Apple has a marketing department, budget and ravening mindless fanbase like no one else, so if anyone can sell it to the masses it is them.

I agree. I'm not into that stuff anyway and a expensive version isn't going to do it.

I am surprised, I'm seeing a lot of negative comments on it from the fan boys, but I imagine like anything else in the cell phone/related department as long as there's a monthly payment program they will sell.

Not quite. When Apple does something, they "invented" it and now it's "magical".
