Relax brosef. You'll live longer.
No need to freak out or repeat your post. I did take your advice when first offered. I turned all the animation settings off in Android. While it does help, it doesn't solve all the problems. The interface is more usable, but apps are still bloated and laggy.
I downloaded Open Camera, and I'm not impressed. I think it actually takes longer to load than the default app. Pictures snap quicker, but then they need processed before I can take another so the total picture-picture time is about the same as default. You can't fix shitty hardware with better software.
I'm still on the fence. Just curious in the different options. And I like to discuss capability of electronics - even if I'll never own them.
Also, the 5X was never a flagship. It was a mid-range below the 6P.
I'm so very sorry, I thought you simply missed my first post and I wanted to make sure you saw it. Given your response and your previous posts, however, a couple things have become clear....
You're in the wrong community if you want someone to help you justify needlessly wasting more money, and you're trying to do everything you can to do that, including twisting the very fabric of reality to diminish what you already have to make the justification to replace easier - after all, you claim the 5x was
never a flagship device and have convinced yourself that the camera sucks. (Guess what? Anything designated as a Nexus device IS a flagship phone according to Google, and the camera hardware is still some of the best available in a non-iOS-based smartphone.) If you can't be happy with a 5x and make it work, you may want to reconsider your relationship with your device, your money, and the world you live in... because
nothing will be good enough for you.
I was happy to help you iron out the software kinks since you had asked for help (and the problems
are software, not hardware... though I wouldn't rule out user problems at this point), but it's becoming obvious by your language and response that you don't actually appear to be after real help.
Thanks for wasting my time and the finite resources of this world to satisfy your impatient hedonic technolust. I want to be wrong about this, so please prove me wrong.
Be less wasteful and selfish
, brosef. The world will be better for it.
EDIT: I'm publicly apologizing for crossing a line. I should not have responded in kind to an effort of needless public shaming and antagonism by an individual with more public shaming and antagonism. I cannot undo the damage, but I can apologize for it and make a concerted effort not to do it again. The strike through text was unnecessary for my point and crossed that line from response dealing with clearly made statements to retaliation, and it betrayed my own heart and its desire to help. I am sorry for doing it, and want to publicly apologize not only to BrandNewPapa for doing it, but to the rest of the community as well.
