Idk if it's just me but I don like the folders, I like seeing the icons all at once. I just use a folder for my games. Maybe it's bc I have ADD, doesn't everyone that's into technology. But I have to see my icons. If there somewhere in a folder I'd nevr use it.

+1 HAHA :D

Probably would use still it, though.

@OP:

Excellent review, I enjoyed reading it and contrary to my first thought, the lack of pictures in-thread didn't hinder my reading experience at all.

I liked the part about your personal day with the device the most.

You can read specs, reviews by magazines, etc... but: if you want a more personal insight, even if you only provided tidbits, that was a really good way of giving us - idk - a better feeling reading your review.

Thanks a lot, guess that nailed my decision to get an iPhone 4 soon myself as well. :)

Still not sure whether the extra 16GB is worth 100? extra. Hmm... It's sooo costy, but there is no way back :pinch:

Indeed, you actually motivated me to make a review about my Canon EOS 60D, as soon as I get hold of the time to make it...

Not today, need to beat Brian and all that...

Uni stuff...~

I await that review.

Also, to the OP, any specific developments in your thoughts about the device?

Nope. Nothing. I still love it. I dropped it the other day, though. On concrete. From like 1,20m... Luckily, it got held off by the headphones, which were still connected, so the fall was chocked off a little... it fell right on the edge, by the dock connector... The result: Nothing. Not a dent. Nothing. No crack, no whatever. I know I am extremely lucky but yeah, feels great. ;)

However, battery life is still great. It's still super fast, although almost every GB is filled up.

(here you can see my habits in using the iPhone, actually. It's obviously mainly music, then Photos and Apps, though I really don't know why I got so many of them. Apps, I mean. I don't use Apps that much anyways... Especially games, I almost don't game... But if I do, Broken Sword 2 does take up some space. ;) )

Nope, nothing has changed, actually.

Glad you all like it. And glad I motivated someone to write a review themselves! :) Awesome!

I'd love to write something like "second impressions" but... there are none. Everything still feels like on day one and I still stare at the display in pure disbelief that this is NOT printed on paper but actually a display I can touch... :D

How do you add icons to the folder name as shown in the photo below?

Haha it's a simple Workaround, simply find a way to get Emoji to your iPhone (there are Apps, free and paid, and I think some other ways). When you rename the folder, which I hope you know how, just put an Emoji where ever you like them. :) I found that it looks best to put in the Emoji, space, folder name. :-)

One thing I never understood was... why fight? Why fight over what someone else is using? I like my iPhone. So what? I don't really like the Android experience. So fckng what?

You don't like the iPhone? Alright! Go ahead. Use what's best for you. What feels best.

QFT. According to some, if you use anything made by Apple then you are an "idiot". These people are the reason ignore lists were made because they obviously have nothing intelligent to add to the conversation.

But, to be fair, Apple users sometimes say the same about Android users.

But that's not my point. The point is that why do YOU (well not you, shadrack... ;) ) worry about what SOMEONE ELSE is using? Seriously, I don't get it! No point at all.

Good review instant.human!

I've used the iPhone 4 extensively and while it is a very good phone, I decided to get a Galaxy S (Rogers) mainly only because of Android and Super AMOLED :)

I thought that was a very unbiased review though!

    • LibreWolf 151.0.3-1

      By Copernic · Posted

      LibreWolf 151.0.3-1 by Razvan Serea LibreWolf is an independent “fork” of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy security and user freedom. It is the community run successor to LibreFox. LibreWolf is designed to increase protection against tracking and fingerprinting techniques, while also including a few security improvements. This is achieved through our privacy and security oriented settings and patches. LibreWolf also aims to remove all the telemetry, data collection and annoyances, as well as disabling anti-freedom features like DRM. LibreWolf features: Latest Firefox — LibreWolf is compiled directly from the latest build of Firefox Stable. You will have the the latest features, and security updates. Independent Build — LibreWolf uses a build independent of Firefox and has its own settings, profile folder and installation path. As a result, it can be installed alongside Firefox or any other browser. No phoning home — Embedded server links and other calling home functions are removed. In other words, minimal background connections by default. User settings updates Extensions firewall: limit internet access for extensions. Multi-platform (Windows/Linux/Mac/and soon Android) Community-Driven Dark theme (classic and advanced) LibreWolf privacy features: Delete cookies and website data on close. Include only privacy respecting search engines like DuckDuckGo and Searx. Include uBlockOrigin with custom default filter lists, and Tracking Protection in strict mode, to block trackers and ads. Strip tracking elements from URLs, both natively and through uBO. Enable dFPI, also known as Total Cookie Protection. Enable RFP which is part of the Tor Uplift project. RFP is considered the best in class anti-fingerprinting solution, and its goal is to make users look the same and cover as many metrics as possible, in an effort to block fingerprinting techniques. Always display user language as en-US to websites, in order to protect the language used in the browser and in the OS. Disable WebGL, as it is a strong fingerprinting vector. Prevent access to the location services of the OS, and use Mozilla's location API instead of Google's API. Limit ICE candidates generation to a single interface when sharing video or audio during a videoconference. Force DNS and WebRTC inside the proxy, when one is being used. Trim cross-origin referrers, so that they don't include the full URI. Disable link prefetching and speculative connections. Disable disk cache and clear temporary files on close. Disable form autofill. Disable search and form history...and more. LibreWolf 151.0.3-1 changelog: Upstream release, see the Firefox 151.0.3 Release Notes Notable changes: Clears the preference toolkit.winRegisterApplicationRestart, which may otherwise trigger an upstream bug on Windows (librewolf/issues#3056) Download: LibreWolf 64-bit | Portable 64-bit | ~100.0 MB (Open Source) Download: ARM64 | Portable ARM64 Links: LibreWolf Home Page | Addons | Screenshot | Reddit Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      Gf needed a new Surface and was looking at a Surface Laptop because of the Snapdragon. Seeing as it was a two year old chip she just decided to get a Lenovo Yoga 2 in 1 instead. Personally this Surface Ultra Cassis reminds me a bit of Razor. It would be interesting if it could handle proper gaming and be 17 inch.

      No idea, frankly, I'm not into minimum requirements gaming, but it would be an interesting test to find out. Also, I just have to point out that it wasn't my intention to downplay the performance of DXVK on Linux or Linux gaming in general (despite my own experience being a bit of a mixed bag). I just thought it would be good to point out that DXVK is not Linux exclusive and that you can benefit from using it even in Windows.
