  • probably ur battery already formed dendrites, causing it to have micro shorts internally and thus spreading heat in the phone case. a phone with 10w charging causes the battery to heat, let alone ur galaxy s20 charging at 15w. i actively cool my phone battery while charging by putting it in front of a fan so the battery stays cool and doesn’t form dendrites, and thus stays healthy. i also use a silicon case instead of leather else u ll be thermally suffocating ur phone: it uses metal as a case material for a reason. exynos for s20 seem to be made on the 7nm process node which usually should be efficient in term of temps. even when the cpu heats up (even using the 4g antenna, let alone a 5g one when active, the camera flash, all those heats up and causes the phone case to heat up too and then a chain cycle ensues by causing the battery to heat up sponatneously too, then it dries up faster than usual which compels the user to plug the charger and the infinite cycle of heat will never end…i never owned an exynos phone but sometimes a phone need to be underpowered so it could last.samsung phones are really overperforming but unluckely their users aren’t just thermal conscious. no engineering degree is needed to have a grasp over phone thermals but sometimes having some knowledge is needed if u cherich ur phone




  • Infinix Note 30 has an option where when plugging the charger and using the phone at the same time electricity would be used to feed the phone directly, instead of charging the battery (since charging the battery (33w fast charge) while using the phone causes it to heat and lose from its life) thus it stays cool during simultaneous usage and charging: now one could do work on a plugged phone without the risk of ruining the battery








  • i had a tab s2 with 28nm soc, 3gig lpddr3 ram running android 7 and the app quickly crashes, now i use an infinix (random asian brand, but way better than the rest) with a 12nm soc 4 gig of ram (4 doesnt seem enough) and 10w slow charging, the next phone i consider buying would run android 13 with 16 gig of ram (swap included, well, unlocked at least), also includes 33w fast charging and a 6nm soc, kinda finding myself reasons to upgrade, but as u said i am waiting this out too: i wanted to run the app on my pc but also i would have to upgrade my laptop ram so my os could support the android emulator without hiccups. i considered running my own instance for this sake but kinda extreme…lemmy is addictive not gonna lie


  • I use Connect: i filter alot of undesired coms and instances so i could browse only interesting stuff. I filter alot that i get a runtime error, due to server overwhelmed with requests. Connect Dev said that the app will be optimized in a way that u could browse infinitly without compromising said filters or encountring such error. I feel my only bottleneck now is android ram, since browsing down the feed causes the phone to become sluggish and cause other background run apps to crash: probably considering getting a phone with extra ram (8gig with swap enabled? )
