                Framegen is just piggybacking on some phones capability to use framegen on games like genshin. The citron framegen apk is package named to genshin. Only works on few phones that support it.

                Do those people compare both yuzu and citron with every settings same and same device? I dont think i can find any. Have you found one?

                  Mt505, 18 Mar 2025Whatver can be claimed in changelog. Where's the proof?Just recent game which is playable with Citron 0.6 is Xenoblade chronicles, now you can get frame generation in Citron which was not possible before, Since citron 0.4 lot of games got significant improvement, just go youtube search "A55 Citron" and see, or go reddit emulation on android subreddit and see plenty of people who show how citron improve perfomance in games they run.

                            I told them, they didn't listen.
                            The midrange is meant for the masses it is not what you should force people to take by force - them removing the 3.5mm Jack and later removing the dedicated SD slot is an "insult" and the "I do what I want you can't tell me nothing" mentality.

                            High end phones are for innovation, midrange and low range are for price margins - and you change nothing design and components but improve the software only!

                            Serves them right, I saw myself migrateating to Honor 4 years ago and instill hit my chest like King Kong I'm so proud of myself I made a wise choice.

                                    It's hilarious to see people suddenly "care" about microSD card slot abd also the headphone jack when they don't even care about them on flagship phones, even calling them "oUtDaTed". God bless Sony for still having real common sense in today's messed up industry. And yes, former Samsung user here who has switched to Sony since last year.

                                      PureOS, 16 Mar 2025Put 25% lower price and everything will be okay. They can go down to as low as 60% of the launch price in 3 months+ in used markets. But of course it will still depend on the region it was on.
