I actually thought about something like that, using smartphone camera modules, since they have amazing image quality compared to dashcams.

Question about Ryzen 2700X vs Intel 8700K
LEXXIUS replied to LEXXIUS's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Thank you all for the clarification. I want to get an ultrawide 3440x1440 120Hz monitor. Based on benchmarks I could find now both processors had little difference on 2560x1440=3,6megapixels, which should be even smaller on 3440x1440=~5Mp or 4K = 8.3Mp. I think Ryzen would be the better choice, especially because of the easy upgradeability to Ryzen 3000x 7nm later on. What do you think about Ryzen with that resolution + 120Hz? -
Hi, in the following video: after 4:49 in his benchmarks of the GPUs, both systems with Ryzen 2700x and Intel i7 8700K performed almost the same. Everywhere else on the Internet (in game benchmarks), Ryzen 2700X performs around 15-20% worse in games than the i7 8700K. How does Ryzen match up to Intel here? I'm genuinely interested because I want to build a new gaming PC in the next 2 months (until I have everything I need for the price I want) and I'm undecided on AMD or Intel. AMD because of the possibility of an easy and less costly upgrade to 7nm Ryzen 3000 series. Also, I don't want to wait for another year for the new CPUs, my current build is from 2011 with a GTX580...

I pictured Linus carrying multiple high-end phones around but when making a call he takes out a flip phone (or an 80's brick, which might be even funnier)!

Sure, but limiting the maximum charge and minimum discharge does reduce the wear of the battery.
-
This sucks big time for Exynos users.

On the Samsung processes: When I set up my S9+, I set up my regular Google account and my Samsung account (from 2011 because of the S3), which basically is syncing roughly the same things that Google already does but to Samsung servers. I think this is detrimental to my battery life, what do you think?
-
It turns off, if the phone is in the pocket or face down, does it still use battery then? it shouldn't...

When the S8 was officially announced, Samsung said, the battery will retain 95% of its capacity after 2 years. Looking at actual user experiences (reddit) it seems mixed, like 60% (my rough estimation) reported their battery is still as good as when they got the phone. I believe this is achieved by only charging the battery only to 80% (sweetspot for usabe charge and degradation), there are research findings that say using the battery in the range of 20% to 80% prolongs its life drastically. This could also be a hint for that statement being true: When rooting any of the latest S8 & S9 phones and using custom roms, a lot of people report their batteries only charging to 80%. This could mean the software displays the full capacity but the hardware still limits it.

How often do you need to charge it? Also, I'm already invested in the Android ecosystem, so no Apple products for me...
-
Thanks for reminding me, I just turned it off on my S9+.
-
That's why I don't like smartwatches. Also their battery life and limited usefulness...

If it gets hot in your pocket and drains when idling, it's possible that a cryptominer somehow got on the phone. Unfortunately, as far as I've read, it's not easy to find it. Or maybe the battery went bad prematurely... One thing to make completely sure if this is a software or a hardware issue: Factory Reset, set it up again and test it. I also love my 256Gb S9+ but the battery doesn't idle well, on my old Axon 7 (1 year 9 months) with a very used up battery, it only drained at about 1-2% in deep sleep, the S9+ loses much more, my battery graph decline is much steeper (but it's a consistent decline, resembling a straight line) compared to the old Axon 7 (much flatter in deep sleep but drops when used pretty fast). Also at the end of my workday (not what I expected from a bigger brand new battery): old Axon 7: 50 - 55% left S9+: 50 - 65% left

I'm curious on how the IC Graphite compares to the EYGS121803, So far I have not found a direct comparison. On the other hand, I plan to build a new high-end PC this fall (waiting for black friday sales) and I'll definitely test it out then myself.
