I know. I did not expect them to switch from Mali to PowerVR. This is an interesting surprise.

The core and process node upgrades are more noteworthy than ram speed upgrade. This should boost efficiency and performance significanty.

Them switching to PowerVR GPU is also interesting. Not sure if itis related to Qualcomm-ARM lawsuit.

Realme will release Android 15 in Q1 of 2025, next year and it will be buggy. So, I will wait either way. Only pixels and a select few OEM devices have android 15 now.

Disappointing, you’d think this wouldn’t happen with Google controlling both hardware and software

Perhaps, the testing folks thought the same thing as you, and skipped testing a thing or four. 🤣/s

Anyway, the 1st gen pixel users suffered the most. The latest gen pixel 8 series (and perhaps pixel 9) are not critically hit and have less heating problems. It sucks being early adopter for beta hardware and software. Google should compensate the affected users with upgrade to pixel 7/8 or even 9 series if possible.

Initial Response from the Company After informing the company of the vulnerability affecting File Manager: File Explorer (used by over 10M+ users), the company responded that it does not consider the issue a problem and has not taken steps to resolve it

Considering the miniscule number of people who would even attempt this. They do not bother which is good. Not worth the time to waste on this.

Oneplus lists the display as 2160HZ PWM dimming capable. But, notebookcheck says its only 120hz, and 360hz in anti-flicker mode.
