Did not get the update yet.
I recommend setting the screen refresh rate to 60hz.. was debugging it and it runs mostly all the time at 120hz, even on a static screenā¦ on the settings menuā¦
That fixed most of my battery drainage. Did not have an issue prior to 3.0.
The HDR setting seems to be the same to me.. debugging it says everytime ā1.0ā even on hdr movies, so i disabled it.
I use velis auto-brightness.. so.. whatever. Had to install it since 3.0, it was too unconsistent.
My only gripe atm are media apps draining battery during the night for some reason, otherwise it is still a very stable system without meta, google and bloatware as such.
Only the damned Whatsapp. without battery permission āall the timeā. otherwise it would kill my phone overnight and I am not updating ever again the app, unless that version is no longer supported.
Conclusion: Meta and google are always spying on you and working around android restrictions to be running all the time. It is not Nothing Team fault.
Also, most or all of us have the battery degrated. probably +10% since it was purchased. The apps get more demanding with time, and Android OS, so you have to live with it. Even with snap gen 8+
Go open source on everything and install Gcam. I recommend AGC 9.2 with HSDv1.1 config. The photos are amazing. Use the default app only for videos or washed up selfies.
Setup smart unlock if you have a smartwatch (I have the CMF watch pro 2. Love the damned thing.. only 50ā¬ for that amount of quality and casual disconnects), that so you can double press the power key and open Gcam.
I am very happy with the device, owning only samsungs before. The bugs on those on each update wereā¦ outrageous ā¦ and the hardware did not lasted me an year with flagships (camera module not focusing on s21 ultra and the same faulty module thingy still present on newer models, or fold 4, breaking loose the internals by doing nothing bad at all. the screen was immaculate and i had soo much care.)
Nothing needs to achieve a good market value on cheap phones, so they get some trust for flagships. It is Marketing, we cannot do ānothingā about it.
Also, Phone (2) should have less beta testers to implement features and get updates faster, since it is more expensive and getting outdated.
Each their own.
