I truly enjoy this smartphone. It's revolutionary. iPhone users don't know it yet. Till Apple release them. But this is going to change how people are using their smartphones even more. Browsing in desktop mode is awesome.

Has multi star been updated yet?
I believe so, I seen some people post it in the reddit thread... but unfortunately I haven't received OneUI 3.0 myself yet.

Tbh, I never really thought it being a revolutionary smartphone... but you might be right. From a hardware standpoint, there's no other product out there. Its just people can't get by the price tag and then the durability comes into question.

I've been using it without a case every since I bought it... I've just been mindful of how I use it and where I store it, so far I haven't had any issues. But you mention desktop mode.. or you referring to Samsung DeX?

No I mean browsing in full desktop. So it won't show the mobile website of pages. It's lovely and good visible on this smartphone. If you didn't use it yet it's recommendable. Anyway I've paid less for this phone then people do for their iPhone 12 pro.

Oh, yeah.. browsing the web, looking at content... even editing documents, its no phone out there with this much screen real estate. That's why I went for it... I've looked at plenty videos before I made the leap though.

And, yeah.. Samsung does well.. attaching incentives to help with the price tag. But some aren't savvy enough to use it and then as I mention... durability is a key factor. No water resistant, concern with main screen... its bulky.. it can be kinda odd carrying around. Narrow front screen, isn't really practical typing on and viewing content is terrible on it as well.

But with all that said, its the best phone out there... imo. And I understand... its not perfect, it has its shortcomings.

I'm hearing March... And supposely it will be merged with Home Up not sure yet...
Idk about Samsung merging it. But according to the reddit thread.. HomeUp has been updated too. Problem is its taking too damn long for us to get the updates.

As much as I like the progress Samsung has made.. its the execution I'm disappointed with. Its the uncertainty of when updates drop.. when one gets it, not all gets it. That needs to change.

Yeah, that makes sense.

But I don’t use Task Manager anyways... the animations aren’t as polished as I would like. I’m hoping that it’s broken up into categories whereas I can use HomeUp without having to trigger Task Manager.

I’m sure it will be separate customizable... stock task don’t compare to it IMO

Very nice! How are you getting weather and calendar on your AOD? I can only find the single AOD where you can get your today/calendar list. IMO this is a big shortcoming with AOD, we should be able to see MUCH more info such as missed texts/calls and other notifications/information.

EDIT!! Sorry just noted that's not the AOD, but your regular screen! Still looks great.

But we do get missed calls/text and other notifications from the AOD. It might not be as informative as you like. But looking at my AOD display now it’s showing me my missed notifications.

But I do agree with you though, I do wish they were more AOD calendar options. So far, Samsung has given us one.
