DemonSpeed, 20 Jul 2023Can somebody explain why data transfer speeds between 1650... moreIs the cable provided have usb 3.x speed? If not try changing the cable.

    This company was always strategically against microsoft, ms should do anything to handicap google stuff on windows, that would be the right response.

      Having connection failure

        I have tried nearby share beta with my TUF A15 late 2020 model that has a rtx 3050 in it here my issue i have encountered
        1. Not detecting when a device is visible and can transfer files to so i HAVE to disable bluetooth and turn on bluetooth again for it to be visible.
        2. Transfering files from my phone to windows with nearby share is also buggy as sometimes the app windows pc cant be visible if i use files to transfer on my phone
        3. Lackluster speed best i have gotten with nearby share was about 45mbps? on a wifi connection when using nearby sharing to send a 300mbps file

          DemonSpeed, 20 Jul 2023Can somebody explain why data transfer speeds between 1650... moreNo the S23U doesnt have SSD/NVME PCIe 4.0 either the cable at fault or the file your transfering isn't large if you transfer large files you might see 100mbs transfer or higher.
          Please test again with a larger file somewhere around in gigabits like a movie

            DemonSpeed, 20 Jul 2023Can somebody explain why data transfer speeds between 1650... moreUse a local wireless hotspot between the two (5 ghz frequency at least) and share with warpinator. You’ll get over 400 mbps speeds (effective 40 MB/s)

                  1650$ S23 Ultra and 1100$ Samsung Galaxy Book 3 are pathetic 10mbs. With the cable provided in the box.
                  Whose fault is it? Windows or Samsung?
                  Both have SSDs
                  Living in 2023 where a 5min video file exceeds 2 GB size and transfer speeds are pathetic.
