Coast, 29 Sep 2024wow man apple fans claim the lack of features is a feature ... more@Coast: you don't have to. Redmi has adaptive refresh, and most of the time it is on 60Hz, and when displaying more dynamic content it switches to 120Hz. You can turn on the Hz display (left up corner) in developer options and see for yourself the refresh rate. Some other mobile phones like Sony Xperia I Vi go from 1Hz do 120Hz. Dynamically.

      the iphone 16 series does not convince me at all. I am a tech fan, but the 16 series is very mediocre for what I have seen.

                Krillo, 29 Sep 2024Let's go to bezel townIf highest end bezels were 2 micrometer and iPhone 16 bezels were 3 micrometer you‘d still say „OMG bezels so big you could land a plane on them“. They‘re not as bad as some make it out to be.

                  Small cores of Pro are clocked 0.24GHz higher.
                  GPU has an extra core ( maybe higher clocked too).
                  Bit larger screen.

                  LTPO could not help, since only drops below 60Hz when person does not touch screen. During this test, it can only help video playback.

                  Pro Max score bit more than 17h.
                  16+ may pass it

                                  By the way, the battery life is not only great for its size but great overall. It lasts longer on your test than most big phones as well, no matter if they have 5000, 5500 or 6000 mAh. https://m.gsmarena.com/battery-test-v2.php3?idPhone=13317#show

                                      >Note that this is the Ceramic Shield second generation, the one on the iPhone 15 Pro models, and not the new third generation that premiered with the iPhone 16 Pro.

                                      Whatever you are hallucinating here. iPhone 12-15 including the Pro models have Ceramic Shield 1. iPhone 16 and 16 Pro has Ceramic Shield 2.

                                        I would prefer aluminium backs like on iPhones long ago. These colours look plastic and childish. I also don’t like the way the colour is dyed into the glass around the camera bump.
