Again even Motorola is phasing out micro SD card. Anything above 300ish.

That really isn't much of a positive note if you have a lot of data. You are forced to buy the higher tier storage if that's even available to you.

Xiaomi is phasing it out as well

Unfortunately most android phones are slowly phasing away the SD card slot. The only flagship that still supports it is Sony with their Xperia. I don't know of any major mid-rangers models that still support it. The only low end phones now. But the overall experience is painful.

 

context: the devs of Project Elixir have paid features in their ROM. If you try to bypass it , they will wipe your internal data and esim EDIT: the devs response

They mainly make telecom equipment. Also the modern Nokia phones are made by a company called hmd global. Not Nokia proper.

Here is the English translation

In June, ASUS announced to employees through an internal letter that it would carry out an organizational reorganization, and although ASUS repeatedly stressed that it was not going to lay off employees, in July it cut the staff of the PC department, affecting the employees in Taiwan and Suzhou, China. However, ASUS's layoffs have not slowed down, and now an informed source revealed to the "Science and Technology News" that "this afternoon, some units in the commercial sector were called downstairs one after another, and the units including engineers and procurement were directly cut in half."

According to the initial ASUS internal letter, the commercial computer team planned and went to the mobile phone product department; People familiar with the matter pointed out that some talents have just been merged into mobile phone units, but they have been laid off; Originally, ASUS stated that after the organizational reorganization, the human resources association had internal matchmaking vacancies, but in fact, human resources did not want to match for these employees, and had to find internal vacancies by themselves.

As for why some employees were merged into mobile phone units, but then laid off? The person familiar with the matter pointed out that the Asus mobile phone has two series, ROG and Zenfone, but now the latest Zenfone 10 will be the last generation of this series, and the Zenfone team will be merged into other departments in the future, or directly into the ROG team.

It is understood that this wave of commercial sector employees who were laid off by ASUS will be until next month.

Here is more context ASUS layoffs, commercial team/smartphone division merger, esports consolidation and personal computer team

Best case is that they mean the Zenfone line is dead and the rog still lives. But even then that still hurts.

 

The TLDW: on the Xiaomi 13 ultra the 75mm equivalent lens is actually a 60mm lens. It crops in at 75mm in auto mode but when using raw it just outputs the 60mm instead.
