For those who ended up buying the Zeekr X

What other cars have you considered?

And why did you end up buying the Zeekr X?

FYI if you want to add MagSafe to the photography kit case, you can't because of it's shape

Wanted to make my vivo X300 photography kit case more useful by adding MagSafe, but seems like you can't because of its shape. Personally, I think a magnet would be better on it than that kickstand.

But at least managed to put MagSafe on the original soft TPU case, and on the r/PICKOGEN case (see 2nd pic), so at least those are more useful for daily carry.

Other than r/nillkin, there aren't any reputable brands making cases for the vivo X300 series, so I'm trying just to make my current cases better.

BTW, these are the MagSafe sticker rings I got from Ali https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4oKa1rf and this https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c3L6VUsN

So far they are holding up fine, but if they won't, I will get some more expensive ones, like these from NILLKIN https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4azJgdB

PS: any other cool case recommendations for the X300?

From where to buy 400mm "G2 Ultra" teleconverter?

Any ideas where I can get the 400mm teleconverter separately?

Did anyone buy it already?

Does anyone have this case for the vivo x300 Photography Kit?

I'm wondering if it can also fit the lanyard strap?

I've been looking for a compact case like this for a while now, to have the telephoto extender and grip properly secured.

Setting so incoming calls ring in earbuds while phone is on vibrate?

I constantly miss calls on my vivo X300 when it's on vibrate, because of the way-too-smooth vibration.

And now also when I have my Bluetooth earbuds connected to my vivo x300, because it does not ring, while my phone is on vibrate.

On my previous phones, it always rang in my earbuds when the phone was set to vibrate. And I don't remember adjusting any settings related to this.

I just realized it now, as I was listening to music, and it stopped, so I looked at the phone, and someone was calling me, but there was no ring in the earbuds...

So, I'm wondering how to fix this issue. Is there a setting for it that I might have missed?

I just want it to ring in my earbuds while someone is calling.

Can I turn the vibration to be stronger for calls?

I love the haptics on my vivo X300 but I constantly miss calls, even in my pocket, as the vibration is so soft/smooth.

This has never happened to me in the past decade with a dozen phones. My previous phone had terrible haptics in hand but at least I could hear it vibrate from the other room lol. I can't even hear my X300 when is next to me on the table.

Can I do something about it, so for calls to make the vibration somehow stronger?

Extra cooling on FW Desktop

Added 2 extra USB-powered coolers to my FW Desktop.

Initially, I had just the small 60x15mm one to help the constantly overheating PSU. And later saw the top part perfectly fits a 70x25mm cooler, so added that one too.

Glued some magnetic tape to the sides of the coolers, and they snap into place perfectly. It's not the prettiest, but it works well and is easy to take off and clean.

I also have the front 80mm cooler installed, and since then, the temps have been a bit lower, especially on the main SSD.

Some shots from regular vivo X300 + original 200mm teleconverter

I am very happy with the kind of photos I can take with my phone now.

Difference between G09 vs G09 Ghost?

Is it just the colors and transparency?

Or if there are any other differences, is there a comparison table between them?

Thanks!

Why aren't reputable case manufacturers making cases for vivo phones?

Besides NILLKIN, there really aren't any quality cases for vivo phones.

Most cases are Aliexpress/Temu. I found two nice cases so far on Ali for my X300 https://www.reddit.com/r/vivoX300/comments/1sgpzpg/my_new_favorite_case_for_vivo_x300/

But would like to see some better quality cool cases too, like from r/Spigen, OtterBox, Ringke, Casetify, Mous etc...

I wish r/aulumu would create a nice case for the X300 series. Their design would look great on the X300 series.

Do you guys see it?

Relatively newly created corner in town with new grass. Well, it won't be for too long.

Is it normal for my battery to drop 4% overnight, while the phone has been completely turned off?

So I turned off my regular vivo X300 last night at 25%.

And I turned it back on this morning, after around 10 hours, and the battery is at 21%.

Is this normal? And what consumes the battery while being completely off?

My older phones stayed basically at the same percentage when turned completely off.

Use this FREE extension to block out all the ads, brainrot reels and AI slop on Facebook!

I previously recommended the Social Fixer extension, but that was removed from the Chrome store. But now I think I have found something better.

I used the free ESUIT Chrome extension in the past weeks, and I can highly recommend it to anyone who sadly has to still use FB, and is using it from a desktop browser.

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/esuit-ad-blocker-for-face/jkbklfkombochacjoeagggbiohipcbaj

You can see from the attached screenshot how much crap was blocked in a few weeks. I have to use FB to manage some groups, and I find this to be a great way to remove all the unnecessary brainrot. And now it looks like how it was 15 years ago, clean feed.

The FREE version is more than enough to block out all the slop!

The paid lifetime version is like $15 if you use the code "FACEBOOK", and that one even removes group suggestions, people you might know, basically everything (see screenshot from the post).
