Early thoughts on Signature

I swop phones a lot

Last 12 months , OP15, Pixel 10xl, S25 Edge and S26 Ultra

It's not just boredom , I get frustrated with something and sell

The OP15 is an amazing phone and ticks a lot of boxes, 10XL is a brick, S25 edge superb tech but battery an issue, S26 Ultra , meh, so expensive Samsung have got lazy

I need a phone with a DEX that doesn't restrict resolution to a monitor, I use a DSLR so camera only needs to be good enough for online stuff, need the phone to be light

Priorities are software experience , hand feel and screen, fast and bright

I like the OP15 Mind Space , the remember thing here is good but not as good as OP, like why haven't I got a shortcut to my remembered things on the desktop? The way though AI seems clunky but I use Gemini anyway, Perplexity doesn't do anything for me.

Yes it's cleanish Android but the AI suite seems unnecessary fiddly , the menu that opens when pressing the button doesn't give the options you want and you can't programme it, why can't I programme a quick launch or that button to go straight to memories? I save a lot through the day, I'll keep playing

The screen and speed is superb. Not sure why they make a big deal of pantone calibrated colours when everyone sticks in on vivid though lol

Used without a case it's a lovely phone in the hand , that's it's party trick

And at 186g guess what, it's pretty much same weight as S25 Edge with a case on

165hz hack

Gemini tells me I can load apps into the game portal on the phone and then lock them at 165hz , like chrome and anything else etc, is it worth it does it work ?

Yoshikane stamped Hatsukokoro

I know they are the distributors, but didn't realise they can ask for their own marking, I have two Yoshikane marked with Hatsukokoro name on the Nashiji

Does this have any meaning at all?

I'm still cutting stuff all the same
