I also have a tablet, samung one with a snaodragon chio that last me 2-3 weeks with same background tasks ( I use it to sometimes watch anime/read manga ).

I don’t see why a tablet shoukd be able to have that much battery life comoared to my phone.

And once again, fixing the battery won’t fix the overheating issues that led to battery degradation in the long run.

The exynos chip in this damn phone rans far too hot, the amount of times it heats up in my pocket doing nothing is far too common.

On another note I’m not technical enough to use an ifixit kit.

I live in croatia, and I did overexagarate the price a lot, but it’s still an issuse to me since closests phone repair bussiness to me about 110km away, I don’t exactly have a repair shop in the neighbourhood.

And even if I fixed the battery the overheating issues won’t get fixed.

The battery degraded in matter of a month to this current point, I just didn’t wanna bother with replacing it knowing that I eill have to do it every few months.

Replacing and buying a new battery here costs about 500 euro while a new s24 costs 650 euro.

Ifixit doesn’t do shipping to here last time I looked and thirt party reselers shipping will cost at minimum a 100 euro, isn’t worth it.

On the car tires point, do the car tires degrade after a couple months? No, they can last multiple years.

EDIT: You also missed the other point, the OVERHEATING ISSUES. Literally just opening voyager and typing this has the phone heating up like it isn’t -5 celcius.

Yea, most chinese phones would. Also what I mean by “smaller screen” is something around the size of the s24 so 6-7 inches.

I have a 5060ti 16gb version and don’t experience any issues with frame pacing and stuff like that on nixos, while when I tried bazzite I was experiencing some issues with the gpu.

It’s most likely a bazzite specific issue, especially if you use something like the steamos interface.

For example my monitor is a 160hz monitor that support’s gsync, but if I enable global gsync in any wayland compositor the bottom part of my screen is cut off and experience weird vissual bugs, but if I make them only enable gsync on my steam games when they are fullscreen I don’t experience that issue. The steamos session inside of bazzite doesn’t have that feature, so when it enables gsync I experience that same issue of cut off part of the screen with weird visual issues.

The more and more of stuff like this I see, the kore I just wan’t to buy the cheapest possible mini pc, make it tv remote controllable and just put it to open jellyfin directly that’s connected to my home media server.

And then hook it up to the most dumb tv I can fijd with decent picture quality.
