[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Accessories] mike28:
Been testing the case for the past three days.

Durable feels Good in hands

Camera bump is well covered

USB type c flapper for extra protection

Kick stand

Observations

Case shape is on top makes it a little harder to pull notifications, however within settings that's fix by pulling it down from within the screen on the bottom, spen slot sits a little bit high.

I want to thanks SCHNAIL for all around great case and giving me the opportunity to participate with the product development, I will use this case daily it offers the right protection.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Accessories] jtOttawa:
You didn't "participate with the product development" - the case is already for sale. You fell for a marketing ploy to promote a product across various forums through inherently biased "reviews" generated by promotional discounts (something you should always disclose if you want to appear even remotely ethical).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Accessories] znel52:
It is helping with 'product development' because they can take the information from these reviews and use it to improve future cases for future devices. Not exactly hard to understand. I'll be posting my honest review in a few days as my FREE cases are on the way.
[Xiaomi Black Shark 2 Questions & Answers] barra0205:
So kid smashed my phone. Need something as a stop gap. Came across this beast. Its cheap (280ish), looks good, like the idea of a game mode, properly done. But keep seeing people complain about android 10 ?

So whats the deal with this phone, from the owners. Is it good, is it worth it, the reviews look good, but how actually is it. for updates and stability
[Xiaomi Black Shark 2 Questions & Answers] tw1st3d83:
Hi,

Im pretty satisfied with my BlackShark2 (not pro). I have version with 6gb of ram and 128gb of storage. Device works like a charm for me and i rarely use it as gaming device, only when i stream my ps4 when TV is occupied. ? Cameras are pretty good to for normal use and sound is amazing both on speakers and on headphones. For that price i think that there is no better device. Build quality is just top, in hand feels better than any premium samsung device.

Hope this helps you to decide. ?

Without issues for me. Everything works flawlessly and i bought it 3 months ago.
[Xiaomi Black Shark 2 Questions & Answers] MiliWanili:
I got mine fairly cheap few months ago, the cheapest 6gig version so I'm OK with some sacrifices, it's very fast device, stereo speakers sound nice, cameras are average and camera app is pretty bad, screen is nice if a little lack brightness, there is no NFC or headphone jack, battery life is very good and charging is really fast, build quality seams nice too. I'm on Android 9 since I don't like Miui. If you can find it for good price you can't go wrong if you are OK with what it lacks.

[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbarker2:
I know before upgrading to 11, under Developer Settings in the bluetooth section, HD Audio was an accessible toggle that was on by default. I've upgraded to 11 and now HD Audio is off and inaccssible. I've since rooted the device, it passes safetynet, but I noticed this change before rooting.

Further, the 4a support LDAC, Sony's proprietary codec, but when connecting my Sony MDR-1000x to the device, it only gives me the option of SBC.

Has anyone else experienced problems with Bluetooth as shown above? It could be an 11 bug or related to unlocking the bootloader. I could see google doing something like that, where if the bootloader is unlocked, proprietary codecs like aptx, aptx HD, LDAC are no longer accessible. Audio quality is so much worse now, even SBC vs AAC.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] shannoncole05:
Disconnect headset and turn off bluetooth, gray out means not supported by connected headset
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] add144:
He's correct. Both the broadcasting and receiving devices must support the same codecs. It is unfortunate and surprising but still very much the case that a large (if not the majority) of bluetooth devices still don't support higher quality codecs like aptx, LDAC, etc.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbarker2:
Sorry, i wasn't clear. There are two issues here:

The first being the "HD Audio" grayed out an toggled off, when it was not previously.

The second is the P4a on 11 is not using the LDAC codec when it did previously. The Sony headphones I referred to have connected to the P4A on 10 using LDAC. On 10, my car used AAC, now it uses SBC. It is not a matter of the device it is connecting to, something changed in the phone itself. Whether this is a bug in 11, a cause of unlocking the bootloader or something else needs to be tested.

Unless i'm just a fringe case and no one else sees these problems on their devices.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] DB126:

..."HD Audio" grayed out an toggled off, when it was not previously.

Try disable and enable again the Developer Options
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] ngocdaothanh:
> Has anyone else experienced problems with Bluetooth as shown above?

My Pixel 3 is not rooted. I'm experiencing this problem after upgrading to Android 11.

I could enable LDAC before, so I think this is a problem of Android 11.

> Try disable and enable again the Developer Options

On my Pixel 3, it's always disabled. I cannot enable it.

Edit:

I could enable LDAC:

* Install Sony's "Headphone" app.

* Connect headphone.

* Go to "Sound" tab, change "Sound Quality Mode" from "Priority on Stable Connection" to "Priority on Sound Quality".
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] pasha_d:
The proposed workaround was to toggle Developer Options slider itself. After you switch Developer Options on again, then option to enable HD audio wouldn't be greyed out and can be switched on.

What is HD audio? A search doesn't pull anything up
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] _a!:
It means different things, depending on the context. Aptx-hd is a higher quality protocol than aptx. Bluetooth is a bit crap and can't transfer enough data for a losslessly encoded file - think flac, lossless wav etc - in realtime so they are lossily compressed. Depending on the ears, protocol, music and listener this may or may not have an audible difference. Different protocols (aptx, ldac etc) take different approaches, and there are licencing and "not invented here" elements too, as well as differing support for apple, android, linux, windows etc. Sony, for example, in recent months, has released some headphones without support for aptx-hd, opting for either higher-end ldac, or crappier common-denominator sbc. Not all devices support ldac. (Sony might implemented aptx-hd at a later date but it would be foolish to buy the newer headphones now and hope this will happen.)

HD audio also has a meaning apart from headphones and relating to the bitrate and sample depth of the music. It's silly to bother with anything at better quality rate than regular CD as both theory and practice demonstrates there's no audible difference. But it does allow marketing types - as well as deluded self-styled "audiophiles" - to suggest the wasting of a lot of money on useless placebos.

Outstsnding - applies to many things in life (90% of XDA content) :)
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbarker2:
The HD Audio is an Android Developer Settings unique. Who knows what it actually does.

Of course you're never going to get the same fidelity from wired vs bluetooth, but you are 100% wrong if you think the codec (not protocol as you refered to them) makes no difference. SBC is the baseline codec supported on all audio bluetooth devices. AAC is the next step up, where even the untrained ear can hear the difference in quality. Sony has never released any audio device that support APTX/APTX-HD codecs because they are Qualcomm proprietary codecs. Meaning its direct competition to their own proprietary codec, LDAC. No audio devices besides Sony-made support LDAC. SBC has a bit rate is 330kbps at 44.1kHz while LDAC is 990kbps at 24bit/96kHz.

And audio is a lot more complex than "CD quality is best everything else is marketing BS". Many audiophiles prefer vinyl over CD as there is no digital to analog conversion. You should look up how digital audio becomes analog and the different properties that go along with this process. Basically everything you said is quantifiably wrong.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] _a!:
I literally opened with "Aptx-hd is a higher quality protocol than aptx".

Wrong:

https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/headband-headphones/wh-ch700n/specifications

LDAC has been part of the Android standard since Android 8, and is included in millions of phones and other devices. If something supports LDAC it is by definition an "audio device".

Given that most music these days is recorded and edited digitally there has to be at least one D/A conversion so that it can be cut on vinyl, yes? There's no point quoting what audiophiles prefer as proof for anything, by the way. Red Book quality audio is objectively better on any metric. If you'd read/watched (and understood) the resources I linked to you'd know that, and that it's possible to *completely* and accurately sample analogue source, store digitally, and convert back to analogue without loss. Unless, of course, you're going to stand with the "audiophiles" against the likes of Shannon and Nyquist.

LOL!
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbarker2:
Wow you really got me there, I didn't know Sony had Made for Apple headphones. Notice what it doesn't support thoufh? LDAC. Why? Because the iPhone doesn't support LDAC.

So Sony was forced to buy licensing from Qualcomm so their Made for Apple headphones could use the higher quality codec and not just AAC or SBC.

My point still stands.

Uh k? Not sure what you are even replying to.

You obviously don't know what digital to analog means. There's no point in me typing more.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] _a!:
Not sure why you're bringing up Apple and iPhones. "Made for apple headphones?" Dunno about that; I bought it for my Android phone. It's made for anything with a compatible codec, no? Not sure why you're confused when I wrote (in a well-quoted message) that all Android devices supported LDAC in response to your incorrect comment "No audio devices besides Sony-made support LDAC". Not sure why you're confused about the obvious need to convert digital source material into analog for the production of vinyl. Everything I wrote was a fairly basic statement of fact; it's hard to see how anyone could misread it.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbarker2:
The headphones you found have the Made for iPod and Made for iPhone trademarks on the cover sheet of the guide.

Is english not your first language?

Of course Sony isn't going to make Bluetooth headphones specifically for Apple or Android, but it's seems pretty clear that they could not include LDAC otherwise they would not be able to license the Apple trademarks, which for whatever reason they decided were more important than inclusion of the codec.

Android devices support LDAC. That means your BT audio will use LDAC if you are using a phone with Android 8.0+ AND a LDAC compatible bluetooth output device. And since LDAC is a Sony proprietary codec, It can not be utilized without a Sony-made hardware counterpart that supports LDAC. Is that worded precisily enough for you?

Vinyl is not the conversion of digital to audio. A vinyl record is an analog storage of an audio recording. When you play a vinyl record, there is no digital to analog conversion taking place. It is an analog source that is reproduced as sound waves through your speaker vibrations (analog).

a CD is a digital storage of an audio recording. Therefore in order to create sound waves via speaker vibration (analog), a digital to analog conversion must take place. The component that does this is called a DAC.

Saying the recording and mastering of the audio uses electronic devices has nothing to do with the playback of the stored media and whether a Digital to Analog Conversion (DAC) took place.

It gets much more nuanced but frankly I shouldn't have even taken the time to write this post so you can Google for more information.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] Wadester:
I was THRILLED to get my Fold 2 5 days early yesterday! Then I pulled it out of my khaki pocket this afternoon (nothing else in it) and I noticed some scratches on the front "screen" which was very disappointing (see attached).

A lot of people are talking about the factory-installed screen protector on the inside -- which makes sense. After taking a closer look, it seems the outside screen has one, too, (a little surprising) and hopefully that's all that scratched.

I know it's recommend NOT to remove the inside screen protector, but what about the outside? It's supposed to have Gorilla Glass Victus for the cover display. That sounds like I should be able to remove it without any issues.

Thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] Trem:
That's the worst scratching I've seen on a screen protector after such little use. I don't understand Samsung insisting it should be there - surely they didn't test it very well if it scratches so easily. It doesn't make sense to use the latest Gorilla Glass Victus and cover it with such a rubbish "screen protector".

I can see a lot of people removing it as it shouldn't be needed anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] sp1312:
You can remove the outer screen protector. Reason behind Samsung not recommending to remove inner screen is, While pulling of the screen protector we might damage the screen.

Outer screen glass is Gorilla Glass Victus (7) you can easily remove that one.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] apprentice:
I think the so called outer screen protector is more of a transit film, to protect the screen during packaging and shipping. It really offers little protection as you found out. It's definitely not something I wouldn't want to keep.

I have seen YouTube videos of people removing the inside one and it didn't seem difficult or detrimental. I would probably keep that one on until more experiences are reported good or bad.

.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] Wadester:
I complained to Samsung E-Commerce Customer Support via Chat and told them I was thinking about returning the device. Surprisingly and without requiring proof, they immediately offered me a 10% refund if I decided to keep it -- which I told them I would. Of course, there was a small gotcha... the maximum amount was $100.00 -- better than nothing!

Since it sounds pretty safe to take off the front screen protector, I'm satisfied.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] jonstatt:
I think I know why this happened. Samsung has been putting film protectors on the curved screen phones for a while as its so difficult to do yourself. For some reason the Note 20 doesn't include this for the US region.

Normally people use some sort of case on their phone and they normally have a lip on them so if you put the phone down on its front, the screen is protected from the surface. When you put a phone in your pocket, the area that will rub the most will be the bottom edges where maximum pressure from your clothes is applied, particularly the bit you scratched up.

As there is no good case solution right now, and Samsung only has rear part solutions, the front screen is vulnerable. There is no lip to take the pressure off there from clothes, nothing to stop the screen making contact with a dirty table when opened and nothing to stop general rubbing of the matte metal frame which may go shinier with time. I can't work out whether there is some protective layer on the metal rim but it feels like it and you can see the difference between the sim tray metal and the surrounding area.

Long story short, I can't figure out how to carry this phone safely without increased risk of marking it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] Cipri74:
I have removed both the front screen protector and the main screen protector as well . It was easy . I can say that the screen feels much nicer . The screen protector is just a plastic , fingerprint magnet .

---------- Post added at 02:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 PM ----------

I can confirm that it is not difficult removing the main screen protector . No damage to the screen and it's a much better experience using it without that plastic screen protector
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] sp1312:
That's true but some people might not remove it properly That's why they recommend to it themselves.

But great to hear that after removing it felt nicer.

Are you planning to get new or just using naked?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] jonstatt:
I can't imagine how difficult it must be to put a new protector on when considering the size, the crease and the fact it has to be a soft protector to bend. Getting the position right and avoiding air bubbles must be a nightmare.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] apprentice:
I bit the bullet and removed the screen protector from the inside screen. It was extremely easy, I just used a sheet of paper to gently pull away from the camera cutout enough to grasp it and pull off as easily as any other protector.

I can confirm the screen feels fantastic now, instead of a rubbery sticky feeling to that of glass. It also no longer attracts fingerprints. It seems more responsive and sharper.

I think as long as you take care not to get anything abrasive on the screen it will remain in good condition.
