Well, admittedly the 3a can only take up to 90 seconds exposure when doing Astrophoto, while the Pixels 4-5 with better chips can go up to 4 minutes I think. So it somewhat effects the result, but not by much. The main thing is that it's there, on a budget smartphone. And you're right, Apple would never do this because they have a very strict and unforgiving feature segregation both from one generation to the next and between price points.
At this point flagship iPhone has largely caught up with Pixel in terms of photography. However there is no Apple (or Android for that matter) equivalent to Pixel's budget a-line, which basically gives you flagship camera experience for 1/2 or even 1/3 the price.
Looking forward to seeing how iPhones astrophoto comes out, and if they bring it to the ultra wide camera. Google did and then disabled it after a month or so much to everyone's dismay.
Now you got me curious about Pixel phones once again 😅
Maybe I’ll look for used one.
The difference is, when Apple implements features like those, they do it better than the competition.
For those iPhone 11 Pro/Max owners that haven’t upgraded yet, waiting for September for the 12s/13 seems like an increasingly good choice...
Yeah no, I’ve seen that one years ago, that is an old model for the old outdated iPads. I mean it was great for it’s time. But I’m asking for an updated version that works with current iPads. Something that works exactly like the Magic Keyboard. It’s just crazy that no one has done it yet.
I'm already saving up for an iPhone 12s/13 Pro or Pro Max, & I've had a Samsung Galaxy S8 phone for 4 years now.
Curious how the S8 holding out for that long?
My sister has S9+. Holding pretty well, it’s just I noticed the battery leak during standby is pretty severe.
Yeah, I had to once replace the battery not too long ago because it was wearing out.
Others: we are making squared wheels
Apple: we are making them round
Others: we were first
My husband has had the note 8 since October 2017. He has no intention of upgrading.
Been using my Apple Watch Series 5 for 15 months, not a sign of screen burn-in whatsoever. LTPO is great thus far.
Ah but 4 years is pretty normal for battery worn out.
My sister‘s S9+ battery health is still normal, but the drainage over night is pretty bad.
Almost got one to replace my iPhone 6 on the release date, but ended up replacing the 6 battery and holding another 2 years for my current 12 mini.
Note 8 was pretty awesome when released.
I don’t know how he’s using the same phone for so long. Since then I’ve had the iPhone X, Xs max, 11 pro max, 12 pro max and even managed to try out the S9+ and note 10+ for a few weeks.
Yea, I can understand you. I hate the Max and love the Mini, but this is just my opinion of curse!
