can't you use android studio to extract the files? I was able to extract all the system files on both my android 13 galaxy a32 and my android 11 redmi 9. also, you can change the screen size in dev options under "minimun widht", set it to a lower number and it should be good to go.
37:09 I'm a tech nerd, and I've known this for a while since I have devices with only one speaker , but the reason it is compressing is because most videos have stereo sound only and quite a few devices with only one speaker don't support automatically switching that to mono audio so it makes it sound compressed
Still, I don't understand how some people consider wish phones for their kids. For 65 bucks I got a used iPhone 7 that I've been using for the past three years...
Old flagships are usually a bad deal. Bad batteries, scratches, grime ... This phone is mostly a novelty, but you could pick up something decent in $60-100 range for kids, or non demanding users.
@@aleksazunjic9672you can changd the battery on older iphone for cheap. And kid would add another scratches from falls 😁 Even If I would be broke to buy “new” phone because for Example I’ve Totaled my current phone, I would rather consider old iPhone 6-7 than these androids.
There's no way you even understand the multinuclear high energy breakthroughs! If you did, you would appreciate the way this phone achieves the small massive brilliance of the dazzling protagonist! Also, with my own multinuclear energy properly calibrated to high, I can play GTA6 on this phone all day long. But really, thanks for this very interesting vid. It's fun to see what this cheap stuff can do.
That music brings back memories of the late late movie that would come on here in the states when I was growing up. That music would play when the movie title was stuck on the TV for a long time. "Technical difficulties"
The reason why reviews are mostly bizarre is because the people who buy things from Aliexpress and are from different Asian or eastern European countries use their native language since the app is in it too, and the app uses a built in translator to translate the review text to whatever your default language is, but since google is not a thing in china, they use Alibaba translate, which is not that good with English, this is also the reason why many Chinese products have bad English, and I also assume people use translator there because English isn't taught in school, and when you have completely different alphabet and grammar rules, they probably look at the English language like how we look at Chinese, when it comes to learning it.
Only *one* bandaid?! What a rip off! This isn't the SMOOREZ quality I'm used to... It's ok though. Times are tough for all of us, I can't afford to use more than one bandaid right now, too 😔
If Derek Zoolander had a smartphone it'd be this one. It's funny; depending on how old you are the "Zoolander" tiny phone joke works in completely different ways. For younger people; haha silly guy has silly small phone. For us slightly older, but still young at heart, millennials the joke is about consumerism. Miniaturization of personal electronics was incredibly stylish back then and expensive to achieve. The smaller the phone you had, the more fashionable and wealthy you were perceived. "Zoolander" took that dynamic to as absurd a limit as possible.
@justarandomguy2126 Judging by their predecessor, pinduoduo. The team behind that was hired to make the Temu app, basically the same shop with a new name for the western market. Child labor is one of the issues pinduoduo had, aswell as leaking/ selling millions of customers data. Their app also had spyware in it, literally built in by the internal team. Also I checked Temu and the amount of supposed gifts, credit and discounts thrown at you the second your account is created is a very cheap tactic, all to make customers stay, which for me as someone working in IT just rings alarm bells.
Hey SMOOREZ, I thought I was an Andriod nerd, but you are quite a level above me. 😂 You're even good with the phones that have proprietary operating systems
I knew as soon as you went into the display size settings what was going to happen. You may be able to change it back in developer settings. You can also change the scale with "wm density 220" from an ADB shell.
Isn't there that "min width" setting in dev options? I've used it. When I've used it right, it upsized my text a little. When I used it wrong, you just about needed a microscope to see the text. It was hard as hell, finding and readjusting that "min width" setting back to something sane.
better battery life, 4g and preferably no fake specs and I would kinda like this device. And if possible an IR filter on the camera to remove that red haze. Not that we are going to take pictures with it anyway 😂.
Okay, now I wanna find clear cases for regular iPhones and Galaxys that gives that cool effect with the flashlight LED. Anyone know of any cause that's legit a really cool effect and if done properly could diffuse the light and make it work as a slightly better flashlight too.
Oh and yea it does seem to be legitimate Android * since I have a Sony XZ from 2016 which I still occasionally use and comparing the UI and menus it seems to check out too (I just replaced it's battery which expanded so much over time that, that plus the glue weakening over time, it actually pushed part of the glass where it meets the frame open, which also allowed me an easier time opening for repair; despite still maintaining around 90% of it's capacity according to Accubatery measurements. And it still works pretty much perfectly with a thermal paste change from the aging pad that it originally had, correcting a lot of the inconsistent performance it suffered during the latter years :))
eeyy I also used tape to hold the front glass together, in the meantime, while I test and finalise some repairs and modifications still; specially since I only have one piece of the precut adhesive so best make everything extra sure before sticking it shut haha
That is the most original way of calling a 6580 lol, wtf they smoke over there? It must be really good. Anyway i was expecting worse from it, but at the end of the day i would buy it just for the cute design. The battery will be a problem tho...
Hey SMOOREZ! Unfortunately I've missed your last stream. 😮 I enjoyed this video, long but entertaining. Keep up and you will reach the 100000 barrier soon. I definetely stick around. Take care! It's a novelty as you said. DDR5 RAM in this device? I think DDR2 maybe?
I got why they called it nuclear. Because in Russian and some other languages "nuclear" is the same word as "core". So they tried to say its a multicore processor.
@@user-dingus-dingusnuclear is literally latin. and a ton of languages had been influenced by latin for over 2000 years. so it is not a surprise that many languages still use it.
The camera could well be 5 MP. You can have as many megapixels as you like but with garbage optics attached to it, the results will look like rubbish. Adding more pixels on the sensor is only useful if the lens is capable of focusing details as small as those pixels clearly on it. Also idk if the weird brownish color tinge is from a low quality camera, lens or the glass (plastic) cover over the camera. Or, have you tried taking a picture after putting it back together? That kapton tape that you removed from the 5 (1) camera assembly seems oddly close to that tinge color.
Hey man, could you do me a small favour? I always wanted to make a Smart watch out of an old small screen Smartphone and this s23 mini seems to be perfect contender. Could you, if you're free & I guess a Video idea, turn this phone into a smartwatch? Cut down the bezels & make it like pretty much bezeless, get rid of the unwanted parts from the motherboard & size it down to the screen size, Make it landscape & add a strap to the top & bottom? 🙏
5:58 "Dream it possible" was (or is?) basically the Huawei (not sure about Honor but probably there too) response to "Over the horizon" by Samsung as a ringtone that also exists as a song in your library. Which is extremely funny when we go back to this being a Samsung clone 😂 (Edit: misspelled a word)
Just placed my order on this phone. I just need a tiny Spotify player when I'm working in my garden and garage. Since i watched this review it should run like butter. I'm afraid of damaging or crack my chonky S24 Ultra in these area's 💀
Was in the video: about 3 days in standby mode and close to zero when in use. He said that just making few photos and a video made it go from 100% to 20% in no time.
21:01 bro that was in that one video i think it was the fuckinnn rugged phone from cashies yellow and black or it mightve been ewaste it was one of them but im pretty sure
