Who are the people that care about these things? Everyone's going to put a case on it anyway.

If I were in charge of product design we'd have two phones:

  • A tiny one for people who like tiny things
  • A big honkin chonker with a 30-day battery life that could jump start a car that would fit in a man's pocket no problem

Sure that sounds nice, but where are you going to find a car small enough to fit in a man's pocket?

!dadjokes@lemmy.world, unite!

[-] Telorand@reddthat.com 6 points 4 months ago

Seriously. You'd have to settle for a pocket bike, instead.

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

No room. I’d have to lose a pocket whale.

Dude, this whole website is fucking amazing, one of the phones has a DLP projector built in??? I love it, if only these could run CalyxOS.

Chinese brands are wild and they make the craziest shit

[-] Ilandar@aussie.zone 2 points 4 months ago

Seems like they also tried to make a Nothing clone lol

[-] bizzle@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

It charges at 66 watts lmfao that's nuts

[-] robotica@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

There's a 240W charging prototype by Otto IIRC

[-] Grippler@feddit.dk 2 points 4 months ago

Doesn't most phones go that high these days? The One+ phones has their "warp charge" which maxes out at 65W

[-] bizzle@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

No idea, admittedly. I think my pixel 7 only does 30, the new iPhone might do 40w?

[-] Grippler@feddit.dk 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Huh, maybe it's just One+ then IDK. But honestly I couldn't care less, my phone always charges overnight, so I have no need for anything more than 5W anyway.

[-] bamboo@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

The Chinese brands have generally been the leaders in fast charging tech

They have pretty cool smaller phones, too. Unfortunately they don't have great antennas for my market.

[-] squirrelwithnut@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Cases do not hide or offset camera bumps.

[-] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

Sure they do. My current phone's bump is completely leveled out by the case.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 months ago

Mine isn't. I want my case to also protect the camera glass, which means it needs to be really thick, which is worse than the bump IMO.

My current case is the Spigen Liquid Air Armor, which I like a lot because it doesn't make the phone very thick, but it still has the annoying bump.

[-] erwan@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 months ago

They make the contrast smaller because they don't go over the bump. Also they can integrate it more seemlessly than this sharp 90 degrees angle.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

You can get cases like that, but then open yourself up to damage to the bump. I personally use the Spigen Liquid Air, which is relatively thin and protects the bump as well, but it does nothing to minimize the bump.

[-] send_me_your_ink@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 4 months ago

I beg to differ. Wood phone cases hide the bump by increasing the total thickness of the phone and making the back nice and flat.

It sounded good in their head
