I have been reviewing the information about the Honor 9. Honestly, this is the first time I ever heard of the phone, but that is a different topic.
The question I want to know is that I recently purchased the Galaxy S8+ and wish to know if anybody did a comparison?
I have seen the videos but it still lacks substance.
For example, I understand that the Honor 9 is better suited for memory and gaming due to its GPU and increased memory. Is that the only real good thing about it?
Galaxy 8+ (for me, i don't have honor 9), seems to look brighter and sharper when it comes to the display. The edge feature is just a cool design but not a selling point.
Is the Honor 9 considered a gaming phone?
What would be the Pros and Cons if you was to make a purchase? I know the price tag is already a Pro for the Honor 9 (300-400, right)?
thanks, XDA.
In terms of performance the Honor 9 does best the SGS8+ just by a slight margin depending on what version of the SGS8+ you are planning on getting. However the SGS8+ does have a much better display than the Honor 9. Also it has a much better VR experience due to the better display than the Honor 9. However if you aren't interested in VR then the Honor 9 is a excellent purchase.
In terms of everything, the galaxy s8+ is better.
But for value/specs, honor 9 is better

1. Honor 9 is best for all around usage.
2. Yeah Galaxy S8+ screen is way better than Honor 9.
3. S8+ is waterproof, Honor 9 is not.
4. S8+ has a more durable build.
hello iwas just wondering if ther e could be abring up ofan android 10 port for nexus 9. as hte are other port bring up for ohte older devices and tablets. Jus twondering if its possible ornot.
Vartom had commented that there are driver issues with the Nexus 9 as it is and making it work fully with Android 8.1 is difficult as it is. It's likely it would be even more difficult to get things working with later versions without Treble
It would actually be fairly easy to build a recent AOSP for N9. In particular, the master branch of AOSP has some really cool pieces in place -- recent version of mesa3d, drm_hwcomposer, gralloc_gbm.... the only parts of the N9 that likely would create trouble would be the cameras. But you can't really use the cameras on a tablet anyway because you look like a moron doing so.
Note that Treble is NOT a requirement for building AOSP for N9. Previous poster is confused because its a requirement for devices that FIRST SHIP WITH certain versions of Android, in order to qualify for inclusion of google blobs. This requirement does not apply at all to N9 for THREE reasons;
1) No need for certification because you aren't trying to sell it.
2) N9 first shipped with Android 5.
3) Nothing applies to custom firmware.
Or now Android 11 for Nexus 9 ???!!!!
I was on android 9 than i updated to android 10 latest
I noticed that our camera quality is gone far down in android 10 . Mainly front camera it looks like 13 mp cam.
So my question is this
Is there any way to get android 9 like Better cameras quality in android 10 ?
Gcam parrot is the best for me https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-parrot043/
Yeah yeah. I know that we've seen the news about Poco and other 845 SoC based phone from Mi Series. Since the rollout of Android 11 on Pixel devices few days ago, there are many new features on Android 11 that I would like to add on Poco but since that Xiaomi promised us to get two major os updates (which are Android P and Android Q) it will most likely will stop on Android Q. But I have high hopes for Poco getting Android 11, MIUI based or not.
What are your thoughts about this?
Xiaomi has already cleared that poco f1 isn't getting android 11. It's not on their roadmap. We'll get miui 12 and maybe even 13 looking at the past experience. MIUI version are major upgrades for Xiaomi phones. Android versions like 9.0, 10.0 are practically just numbers to show off and that hardly adds any features on xiaomi phones.
I created petition on change.org for android 11.

You're on xda forums not miui. The one thing you should be worried about is device sources and community developer support not miui.

Yes I'm fully aware of that. But even though if I posted this on MIUI Forums, I still get the same answers from both Forums.
I highly doubt that someone can use blobs from MIUI 12 Android 10 to start from scratch to build a port to Android 11.
I forgot what device that was, I've experienced this coming back from 2018 when they used blobs from Android M to port and build Android N and that was stable enough they officially launched an official build.
Maybe my intuition was wrong or not, maybe someone from the Poco dev or even from the Poco community might wanna build and port Android 11 and might be one of the biggest breakthroughs of all time. Of course if it is stable enough to be a daily driver. I know that it is hard because of lack of blobs coming from Xiaomi's MIUI but maybe, someone will do it.

Yeah, Android 9 and 10 is kinda bummer because of lack of feature other than setting apps permissions which is great for me.
Android 11 has tons of new features like their improved privacy app features, the new smart device control quick settings which I really need because I have smart devices at home, improved notification and more.
I know these things can be treated on 3rd party apps but who wants to add more apps on their phone and maybe eat the battery on the background.

This is highly unlikely. Check piunikaweb they already mentioned there that a moderator from MIUI forums clarified that we'll get miui12, but unlikely to get Android 11. If you really want 11. Then wait for custom ROMS, but it may not be full MIUI Android 11 ports, rather from Pixel ports (one has already been released)

Yeah. Hopefully. Even if it is a port, or a custom ROM, I would still install that on my device.

You misunderstand me. Even if they give android 11, the actual features don't arrive with the update. You will have to wait couple of years more to see native features of android 11 to implement into their MIUI ecosystem.
For example, custom DNS was introduced with Android 7.0 or 8.0 but it really came to xiaomi devices with MIUI 11 in 2020 year only.
On Xiaomi devices going from android 10 or 11 is as unsubstantial like changing security patch from august to september. Most of the people won't notice anything different.
We will 100% get Android 11 as a custom rom. As a matter of fact, it already is a thing. (Search xda) We won't get it officially as all non-pixel devices get only 2 android upgrades.
As far as XDA is there with active dev's updates offically from miui isn't a big deal for me ! Although our dev's are far more better than offical miui cause custom Rom are becoming far more Stabler than stock and in features . :fingers-crossed:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/development/rom-reloadedos-t4162237 11 is out for poco f1. Like i said, who needs xiaomis miui updates when you have xda. Long live the aftermarket software scene.
