Anonymous, 09 Mar 2026People who spend money on cheap junk and then cry when it breaks down are hard to understand, ... moreI disagree. In my experience, wired headphones have always broken down after about six months, regardless of price, while wireless ones almost never do, unless I accidentally threw them a few meters and they fell out of their case in heavy rain.

    Lmm, 30 Jul 2026Nah I have the stylus 5G 2026 for $179 at local Walmart. Btw I'm in USA not Europe You are very lucky because in the US have Access To the Cape Network Provider! The most Private and Secure Mobile Operator on the world
    Cape Network Key Features Summary
    1. Core Privacy & Security

    Identifier Rotation: Automatically rotates your IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) every 24 hours to prevent long-term tracking of your device and location .
    Network Lock: Prevents your device from connecting to unsecured or malicious networks (like fake cell towers) and blocks attempts to intercept calls or track location via SS7 Signaling System 7 vulnerabilities .
    SIM Swap Protection: Your phone number is secured by a private key stored only on your device. This means no one, including Cape staff, can transfer your number to another device without your physical recovery phrase .
    Metadata Elimination: Unlike traditional carriers that retain call logs (who, when, duration) and SMS records for long periods (often years, in compliance with local laws), Cape deletes these metadata daily.

    Protection in Case of a Breach: Even if an attacker were to gain access to Cape's servers, they would not find your recent conversation history, as it no longer exists on the server. The only data that can be accessed is that which is strictly necessary for real-time network operations, and even that is protected by encryption.
    Minimal Data Collection: Cape does not sell, leak, or store your personal data or browsing activity. The service is designed with a "zero-knowledge" architecture .

            marinada, 27 Jul 2026This device is the epitome of the definition of "MID" when it comes to smartphones. ... moreThere is a clear reason its in the A series, not the S series. What are these people wanting now? Flagship A series phones that cost $1099? Because that's what you are essentially asking for. If you study the manufacturing process and costs for a smartphone, you will actually understand why it has mid range specs. And the people buying a $549 phone are not going to be expecting top-tier flagship performance or cameras.

                This device is the epitome of the definition of "MID" when it comes to smartphones.

                It has nothing, literally nothing going on for it. MID cameras, MID cpu, storage is nothing new at this point, same with ram.

                Even the colors do not pop at all lol. The screen with the punch hole has been seen a million times by now.

                But since most people, since the rise of Tik-Tok, do not think by themselves, this is the perfect device for them.

                                Mariogrcy, 18 Jul 2026Samsung also have for a years Lockdown Mode you fm!Yeah it's good option but it's not Similar to Lockdown Mode on the iPhone. Lockdown Mode from iPhone don't have a similar thing in Android Ecosystem
                                Although they have similar names, Lockdown Mode on iPhone and Samsung have fundamentally different purposes and functionalities:

                                1. Main Purpose
                                Samsung Lockdown Mode: It is a measure of immediate physical security. Its purpose is to prevent the phone from being unlocked by others (police, thieves, acquaintances) by forcing the use of a PIN/pattern/password instead of biometrics.
                                iPhone Lockdown Mode: It is a measure of extreme cybersecurity. Its purpose is to protect the device against sophisticated hacker attacks (espionage, Pegasus-type spyware) by drastically reducing the phone's functionality.
                                2. Functionalities and Impact
                                On Samsung:
                                Temporarily disables biometric unlocking (fingerprint/Face ID).
                                Hides notifications on the lock screen.
                                Impact: The phone otherwise functions normally; it is simply a method to force PIN entry for the next unlock.
                                On iPhone:
                                Blocks most attachments in Messages and disables link previews.
                                Blocks FaceTime calls from unknown contacts.
                                Restricts complex web technologies in Safari (some sites may not load correctly).
                                Blocks wired connections to accessories when the phone is locked.
                                Impact: The phone becomes much harder to use ("stripped-down"), sacrificing convenience for maximum security against software exploits.
                                3. How to Activate
                                Samsung: Activated instantly from the Power menu (power button) by tapping "Lockdown".
                                iPhone: Activated via Settings > Privacy & Security > Lockdown Mode, requiring a device restart.
                                Conclusion: Samsung's mode is an "emergency switch" for physical situations, while iPhone's mode is a "digital survival mode" for journalists, activists, or individuals targeted by advanced cyberattacks.
