That’s the placement of the sensor on Samsung’s Folds and it’s great.

Are those devices all the same manufacturer?

Have you tested if this issue appears on more than one device configuration? E.g. Your personal physical device and on the emulator?

That’s pretty stupid of a feature. Never knew that was a thing since I think Samsung implements their Do Not Disturb functionality differently.

feature where you can only listen to music by turning off “Do Not Disturb”

What phone are you using which does this?

How in the world is that compact? I swear none of these reviewers know what a compact phone is. Unless it’s anywhere remotely near the size of the Xperia Z5 Compact or the iPhone 12 Mini, it is simply normal sized at best.

Oh I just map it to the power button which feels more intuitive anyways since that’s how most other phones have it set up.

Can you not reprogram it to do something else? I could do it with my old S10e, Fold 3 and now Fold 6.

Looks like a neat take on Samsung’s Modes & Routines feature. I think Samsung’s has the benefit of the additional IFTT controls which make it a lot more powerful but I’m all for it if Google integrates those in as well.

This looks great, I’ve been looking for a self-hostable replacement ever since gfycat was shut down. Gonna give it a shot.

Yea if they hadn’t cancelled the compact back then, I would’ve went with it instead of the S10e I got af the time.

Would help if OP posts info on what device he’s using. The post is completely fine and loads and runs smoothly for me on my phone which I just recently bought.

The worst is when it’s buried in Github issues or in a header file with thousands and thousands of lines of code. Yes I’m looking at you DearImGui, your documentation is awful and I’m already being generous.

They should make any developers who are required to write documentation go through this step. It’ll be an interesting day and you’ll actually learn something… I hope.

It’s a form factor where software is even more important though. I’m sure that for some people the larger screen is fine enough but at that price point, the average person needs more value out of that cost. To each their own but it does seem that it’s not as clear cut as YouTubers may make it seem. There’s also the fact that Samsung does provide far better deals and support at least in this country compared to their Chinese counterparts.

As a foldable guy, I live in Singapore where Huawei, Xiaomi and Oppo also sell their foldables. They look okay at a glance but walk into any store and try them and the software immediately makes the phone feel underbaked.

There’s a reason despite that and their lower prices, there’s still far more common to see people with Samsung’s foldables than their Chinese counterparts.

I agree with you but a ton of people don’t so I think this is a good compromise. Give all the people who want a wide unwieldy, slim foldable for those who want it and charge them the premium for it. Just don’t touch my pen capable, comfortably one-handed thick and narrow Fold.

I used to be pretty stubborn about wanting a stock experience especially after the bloated sluggish mess that was TouchWiz but they’ve really turned things around.

There’s a lot of One UI features that I take for granted now (same thing I also hear from friends who switched to a Pixel) and it also looks way better than stock after Google did the whole Material 3 change. The main annoyance I have is with the default launcher and keyboard but those can easily be changed to third party alternatives anyways.

I wish more companies made narrow book style foldable like Samsung does. It’s a much better form factor for one handed use and books so it’s a shame that Samsung’s not getting any competition there.
