There even worse than Google

I think in all honesty I always disliked windows OS as it's always had software problems issues technical difficulty with trying get something or another too work or security or updates breaking crap or restrictions

It's the least refined os ever it gets Franklined on too devices and is lacking features optimisation is something Microsoft don't understand the meaning of

It's Microsoft fault for making not putting desktop windows on phones with Intel atom CPU

It's unfortunate situation and turn of events for mobile windows OS for phone was a thing

I actually wanted too buy a Nokia Lumia 930 but windows mobile is deal breaker

It's software developers at fault all they had too do was support legacy os forever and hardware manufacturers keep making them
It's cheaper also and elo friendly because it use existing equipment
And mean a device live a lot longer life

All software developers do is prove
they don't care at all by not supporting legacy hardware & software

It's a real stock android emulator

My advice is based of real would experience and in-depth testing not your a topical computer benchmarks only

I do understand how hardware works which part has which function and can make good estates

U can't even unstall FB lite from Nokia c01 plus
Also the Nokia app has ads

I don't like ads or blootware but Nokia has both now
They software is horrible

But other Chinese brands don't even install crapware in the first place
I don't care less about Samsung OneUI

I run full blown windows 11 (TPM deactivated) on a more then 8 years old PC with Core™ i3-4160, a cheap 256 SanDisk SSD and 16GB RAM, without any problem, and it is actually faster then windows 7 was on the same maschine....
Android is maybe RAM hog for the fact that it really does noit do that much, but windows? The system might need more RAM this days, but in comparison to android, is on another level of what it can do and the Graphics it comes with, there is no comparison. Also no comparison to any other OS, be it linux or MAC. Windows can do from enterprise, to home, everyhing that's possible to be done on a PC. None other can do Enterprise level, but only partialy, and mostly very problematic and unstable. You literally cannot blame Microsoft for evolvinng and Windows for developing further. If you need a good PC avoid intel celeron and Pentium, search for an icore, and you'll be fine.

Sorry, but i still think you need to learn what everything does and how, and what does it need to do. Such information is hard to find outside professional schools but still "findeble".

Why should software be too much for the hardware too cope with it

All Microsoft does is this makes unnecessary heavy os and breaks everything they touch
Too be heavyer then android insanity
As if android Isn't android bad enough

Let's just mess up the laptops and pc also
As if they wasn't already slow enough
Technology isn't even getting faster it's actually getting slower thanks too poor software optimization making device's feel real sluggish

Using budget phone affects people in bad ways I think they make you miserable

Linux well is it any good?
I don't think my laptop compatible with Linux

I can actually simulation results of each system and test this as I run virtual android machines on laptops or pcs

So you cant complain. Beside your laptop igpu has no ram of It's own and uses main ram space . If a laptop is having problem with windows , install bodhi linux or elementary os or lubuntu or something

You seem to not asimilate information, and keep on repet the same thing over and over again. I try to tell you something, but all you seem to understand, is what you want to tell me, sorry but i am confident that in this criteria, i know more then enough to be able to disagree. Anyway, my assumption is that, the most problem with you and your family, is not only the lack of understanding of hardware, it is also the lack of understanding the software. Combine both with a budget phone, and there you have a person that complains about everything, but does not want to also learn anything.
I do not use budget phones, cause i do not want to wait for tasks, but if i buy one, i know i would need to wait, because well, that is why it is a budget phone. But even so, i bet you, that if i buy budget phones, no matter wich one, it will work better when i use it, then when you use it...just saying.

Windows is even heavyer then even android and more hungry for ram and the os needs a absolutely ridiculous amount of space for boot drive

Microsoft turns windows OS too crap and clearly don't care about optimisation at all needing 8gb ram practical bare minimum

Am really not sure what big companies problem is
It's total joke there not supporting older hardware and software versions

A windows laptop with 4gb ram can barely even boot up and just a few Google Chrome tabs be too much

Harddrives are completely obsolete and a harddrive will completely cripple anything that trys too run off it

Storage speed determine performance more than any other spec

What am trying too explain is because of modern software being so damn heavy hardware standards for something too function properly are way higher than they used too be

Hmd global puts crappy single channel ram in there phones I checked with app then hmd global slows there phones down with endless updates filled up with crappy blootware apps it's no wonder they have problems

Who wants a blootware riddon phone seriously without any free storage because updates filled it up

Maybe this one be smooth but unlike other brands Nokia does not have clean os anyone it is a unpleasant experience

Sin, 18 Mar 2023The CPU is the least of problems here with this phone The ... moreI do not find the RAM count to be poor, 4GB is more then enough for a budget phone. But about RAM i told you more then once that you are not right. RAM is very important, but not the way you think. Their is even more important the frequency of the RAM module, and can the cpu work with it or is throttling it's performance. Most Mobile manufactures install though, only RAM with frequencys that are supported by the cpu. As i have more then once said, i have never had a phone that run out on RAM on me. A person must be installing like 1000 apps, and heavy apps that all run in the background to be able to keep the 4gb RAM bussy, and even so, it might still have a bit of space left. Their are laptops with full blown windows os installed, with 4 gb ram, so nope, RAM count is not the problem. If the phone laggs, that's 99% because of the GPU rendering. If the device is way to slow that would be 70% the CPU to blame, and 30% would be of course, the most bottleneked component in any device to blame: the Storage, that plays a big role in performance, but well not a great one if the cpu and gpu are lame.
So let's put it this way: a system with an icore 7 12 generation (integrated intel graphics) and 4 GB RAM would still be even if storage runs on HDD fast enough to be used on a dayily basics, even with poorliy selected components that wont let the cpu shine. However, In comparison with a system runnunig intel celeron (newest edition), intel integrated graphics, with 16 GB RAM plus SSD drive, guess who will win? Of course that icore7 system will still crush the celeron in a lot of tasks. I hope i made it more clear this time. RAM count is very important, but way more important are RAM speeds. Anyway, RAM is rarerly to blame in a device with basic CPU, especially when we talk 4gb and up.

The mediatek p60 only just slightly be then it

Not good either but usability is ok

The limited resources ram is main issue with this phone I think there be issues ram capacity software not designed for low end phones like android and Google Chrome Also a ram hog nearly every android app has high requirements for ram

Gaming performance isn't the worry here I don't know for sure if this phone be sluggish in basic usage or not it might lag often
This phone has blootware apps then on top of that has too run future android versions Google isn't doing any manufacturer any good by not supporting legacy android versions

It make a good androidgo phone I think
but full Android on this way too heavy

This is clearly a budget phone it' meets the standards what I expect for a £99 phone
It's unlikely but possible be reduced too this price
However the Nokia g10 & g11 both where sub £100 in the UK when on sale

One big adventure this over the Nokia g10 I had actually reviewed
The Nokia g22 has fast ufs storage instead of crappy emmc storage like in the Nokia g10 that could possibly be a lifesaver for this Nokia g22 phone

Storage speed is very underrated spec for performance so it's possible the ufs storage could carry it and make up for it's other poor specs

The phone is good rounded for 200 euros. Will also get some price cuts from time to time, most probably, that being the time to buy it if you do not need to play heavy games 24 hours a day.

Sin, 16 Mar 2023Am going have too look into this more But got rough idea ... moreDon't remember what the fuss was. Well i also never cared about devices that had chinese CPUs to much in the past. I still do not see them getting better. And not talking only chinese, googles tensor, not quite impresive and exynos from samsung, is well, pretty bad in comparison. Apple managed to do some stable CPUs, but well, those work only on apple devices, on android they might as well be as fast as a snail. For now, nothing surpasses Qualcomm, which makes sense, they have loads of experience, i mean they realy know what they are doing. So i am really annoyed that they did not use tge 480, hack they should not even bother to make it run 5g cause nobody cares, well not my family at least...
