Snapdragon 4 Gen 2
I dislike my apps being dropped by the OS at 8GB, so I personally think a 2GB upgrade is worth it. 128GB would be enough for me too, though. Overall, I think 6GB is usable, but I personally would upgrade.
I don’t know much about photography, but being a passionate consumer of internet posting, one interpretation of this sausage stands out…
Thanks for sharing, but I don’t know since I don’t own it.
I think there have been a few more. William Henry Bragg & his son Lawrence Bragg. Niels Bohr & his son Aage Bohr. And more…
Very cool. Thanks for sharing. Not perfect for the usual reasons, but very memorable.
Yes, Sir.
😉 Just following Wikipedia’s statement.
Regarding the US reception, I don’t know. 🤷♂️ But,
The 4G has this Xioami spec:
2G: GSM: 850 900 1800 1900MHz
3G: WCDMA:1/5/8
4G: LTE FDD:1/3/5/7/8/20/28
4G: LTE TDD:38/40/41
The 5G has this Xioami spec:
2G: GSM: 850 900 1800 1900MHz
3G: WCDMA:1/2/4/5/8
4G: LTE FDD:1/2/3/4/5/7/8/20/28/32
4G: LTE TDD:38/40/41
5G: n1/3/5/7/8/20/28/38/40/41/77/78
So, for connectivity, 5G is the way to go.
If I were to buy my own cheap phone, from my preferred local store, I would be limited to pretty much Samsung, and Chinese phones such as Xiaomi.
From experience using an extended Wifi (open area, multiple routers and extenders), Samsung models seem to have the most problem on the edges. People with Chinese phones (and in general, iPhones) don’t seem to have this problem. So, Samsung is out for me. I would consider Samsung if my regularly-used Wifi signal is strong.
These damn phones last more than 3 years. Having a 2-3 year update policy (normal for cheap Chinese phones) are pretty wasteful. Therefore, the phone should be likely to support custom ROMs. For this purpose, Xiaomi is it.
Xiaomi models come with either MediaTek or SnapDragon CPUs. Since phones are often used a security device (2nd factor and such), having a hardware-backed storage is something to be desired. For this purpose, SnapDragon is it.
Two models I end up with:
XIAOMI Redmi Note 12 4G (8+256) ~USD$ 172
XIAOMI Redmi Note 12 5G (8+256) ~USD$ 245
Sorry about no price ranges. This store usually sells phones on the lower half of the spectrum, though. So, let’s say they are mid prices.
I would personally would grab the 4G version. Faster CPU. Possibly newer Android. I am on Wifi most of the time. Don’t need 5G.
Yes, there have been. They won in the same fields twice, different fields twice, but looks like none except Marie Curie that won in two different scientific fields.
The /c I found relaxing include:
Well, there are a lot to list (I only got to ‘c’). One of the best things you can do is, post positive things that make you happy on the /c you follow for your fellow lemmies. The happiness this generates are multiple times worth the posts you read. Try it. Be a positive content relayer / originator yourself.
No, unfortunately, I haven’t. Maybe sometime…
You are right. The EMUI outside of China is still based on Android with its own eco-system, although the other EMUI is also based on HarmonyOS which may/may not be compatible with Android, especially in the future. It seems, the phone has disappeared from some international markets altogether, the countries being friendly to China or not, probably because consumers are worried that their phones wouldn’t be supported by critical apps.
Well, you squeeze them, and they squeeze you back. Typical. Like, the US is not expecting that.
Besides the chips, there are still the OS. It’ll take a while yet, if ever, for Huawei phones to gain traction again outside of China. What would you buy: Qualcomm/MediaTek/Huawei(SMIC) chip? What would you buy: Android/Huawei OS?
Turn it off and put it in a Faraday-cage bag.
The first time because the cars will be coming from the left. The second time to make sure you didn’t misjudge the first time.
If you live in a country where the traffic directions reverse, you can teach the kid the opposite thing.
This is just a simple rule of thumb. Obviously, you don’t want anything to run into you in any directions, which is a real danger in a busy intersection.
We certainly wouldn’t want a ruling class, do we?
If your account is that sensitive, generally no. Fastmail wouldn’t escape the court order to turn over some email account’ IPs either. Plus, for accounts that are not e2e encrypted, the law may just demand the contents of the account.
If you have the state actors as enemies, you have to dial up your securities to a different category altogether.

You are both right: this seems to be a composite image.
