Lenovo offers us numerous premium features like a metal casing, fingerprint reader, and good speakers. It ships with Android 11 and updates are supposed to be available until 2024. That is a drawback because the previous tablets in this list will probably be supplied with updates for much longer.
This is probably the smallest Android PC you can buy right now

The 10.2-inch display is nice and bright with 500 nits and also has a decent resolution of 2160 x 1620 pixels. However, it is regrettable that the screen is not laminated. Thus, an air gap is visible between the IPS panel and the touchscreen. Many do not notice this and it is often not a big deal. However, it is annoying when writing or drawing with the Apple Pencil 1. The air gap makes it look as if you do not touch the screen directly.
In May 2017, Google announced support for a new Kotlin programming language. As you are familiar with Java, you probably should start in Java (many of the examples out there are written in Java), and then move into Kotlin. Kotlin will not be discussed in this article.
Installing Android software is probably the most challenging part of this project. It takes times - from 30 minutes to n hours to forever - depending on your luck, your programming knowledge, and your PC. You probably need a fairly decent PC (with 8GB RAM) and 10GB of free disk space to run the Android emulator!!! Running on "actual" Android phone/tablet requires much lesser resources.
Expand the "app", "res (resource)", "layout" node. Open the "activity_main.xml" (which is actually already opened). Android Studio provides 3 views for this XML file: "Design (or Graphical)", "Code (or XML)", or "Split" - selectable by the icons at the top-right corner of the panel.
More interesting to me is DeskView mode, which is very similar to the feature Apple announced for macOS earlier this year. Apple's implementation relies on you using an iPhone as the webcam for your MacBook, and it uses the wide-angle camera to be able to capture your desk. With the Insta360 Link, all you need to do is enable DeskView mode in the dedicated software, and the camera will point 45 degrees down, then crop into the surface of your desk, with the necessary corrections so everything is clearly visible. It works better if you have a larger desk than mine, but even with my limited setup, you can see how it might be useful to show off a document, or even how to do something on your phone. You can adjust the angle manually if the default view doesn't work right - my desk is just really small, so I couldn't work around it.
The Insta360 Link Controller software also has a mode where you can see the camera controls overlaid on top of all your other apps, so you can test camera changes while using your streaming software, for example. You can click the button near the top-right corner (next to the minimize, restore, and close buttons) to enter this mode, and once you do, it'll look like what you see above.
When it comes down to it, the Insta360 Link is probably the best webcam you can buy right now. However, that's what you should expect for a $300 price tag. With smart features and AI tracking, plus a vertical video mode, and more, that high cost can be justified if you're often making presentations or for high-profile streamers, but for most folks, it's hard to justify the cost.
The sad fact is, China's government is weaponizing their insane lockdowns to do exactly this - exacerbate the cost of living and supply crisis in the west, as well as extend their power over their own people. No one wants to talk about it, but I think we can all see this can't we? It's going to take years to first wake up to this, and put in place robust local manufacturing to remove the dependency. None of this is going to be easy, and I don't see it happening for a very long time indeed. Still, it kind of serves us right doesn't it?
Well, I definitely consider the Pi Foundation as actively hostile to the DIY/maker community since at least mid-2021. They knew very well back then and they know now there is zero chance of this "issue" resolving in 2023 or in 2024. How are they hostile? They know they will never be able to provide the same value they did before, but still by claiming "the solution is right over the corner" they string everyone along. Open source projects don't migrate to alternative hardware, people don't choose other solutions because they are being told it is just few more weeks... No, it is years. And when they do provide, those chips will be a decade old tech. The situation we're in has nothing to do with a "chip shortage", but all with price gouging by certain well established manufacturers. It is simply a result of too little competition. The only thing that will resolve this is some old fashioned competition, but with China essentially shooting itself in the foot with their hyper-idiotic industry-killing covid lock downs still continuing and entire competition of those price-gougers being located there it takes time to build fabs and the whole alternate supply chain elsewhere. My prediction for when this is "resolved" is 2028 at the earliest, 2030 more likely. Look at the fpga industry for an example how it might happen. For last few years if you wanted xilinx or altera/intel fpgas (unless you're military) you couldn't get them at reasonable prices. Now we have Trion,right from a new fab located in USA. Is xilinx and altera more available? Nope, they are happy to give the low end market to Trion. They weren't making much money on low end devices anyway. Would you rather sell a thousand pieces for a dollar, or one piece for $1k?(with ability to provide better service and all that). This whole "chip shortage" is nothing else, but an opportunity to restructure their profit ratios for manufacturers.
Coming back to the pi foundation, its ability to deliver a product that was pretty fast and well supported was tightly linked to the industrial environment that existed at the time. This is gone and it is not coming back. We have to move forward. If we want cheap hardware, there is cheap hardware, and some of it is even well documented (but on a very low level). Open source community is involved in a lot of work to improve Linux support on rockchip socs for example. I think we sooner will have everything working out of the box on radxa, orange pi, rock Pro, pine64 etc than have rpis back in stock. A lot of stuff is already doable on those boards. If you're developing your own software and you're willing to run Linux kernels that are slightly older you can get advanced features like video encode etc working. If you just want gpio this is fine even on latest kernel. There is however an issue with hdmi. That is much better on android. However, none of my current Raspberry pi uses involves hdmi so for me this doesn't matter. To anyone who considers using RPi product now (unless it is pico based) I say don't. Save yourself some trouble and choose something else.
6. Develop a Flash/HTML5 StrategyAre you going to develop your Website in Flash or the newcomer HTML5? Sadly, you're probably stuck with both, at least for now. Click Here offers some advice on when you might want to consider one or the other: Flash if you're heavily into Webcams or need DRM, HTML5 if mobile and Apple devices are a concern. But even this digital ad agency thinks that clients will need to pursue development on both technologies for the foreseeable future.
Mantano Reader Lite eBook reader has a great look and feel. The user interface is light and easy to use. A series of menus appears on the left and your eBooks are presented on the right. Finding a book on this app is never difficult with its simple interface. A small status bar at the bottom right allows you to manage your books. Another unique feature of the app is the ability to sync your current reading to the Mantano Cloud. The app allows you to sort the book by categories that you have created. Importing files into this app is also fairly simple with its one-click import feature.
In particular, for what we know right now, the PinePhone Pro seems to punch above all alternatives in this list for value and performance, but since this device is currently available only as a developer prototype, just a long-term test (e.g. to assess the efficiency of heat dissipation and battery life) will be able to say if it is better than the standard PinePhone, or if the laptop SoC used in it tends to get limited by the thermal shielding.
Most people would consider the Librem 5 as the starting force of the modern mobile Linux momentum, with a valid point. The Librem 5 was the first announced example of a privacy-focused modern Linux mobile with a fully mainlined SoC, privacy kill switches, and a modular, transparent design. The mobile GNOME ecosystem known to this day is also partly thanks to considerable time and money investments by Purism, which reflected (e.g. in Phosh) on most other devices on this list, and the Librem 5 is probably as close to a fully trusted smartphone as we can get today. In fact, the modular mainboard allows to replace the modem through a standard m.2 slot, something never seen before on smartphones. This, however, comes at a very high price.

GrxIn figure 6 on this page if you look closely you will see that the discharge depth does not wear out, case 1: 75-65% uses 10% and only provides 90,000 units of power and case 2: 75-25% uses 50% and gives 150,000 power units showing that 75-25% is better than 75-65%, in the old comments Reza says just that.These are other sources that show that discharging the battery to 0% is good -us/articles/360016286793-Re-Modeling-of-Lithium-Ion-Battery-Degradation-for-Cell-Life-Assessment =cycle%20life%20testing%20and%20modeling%20of%20graphitescience%20direct&tbm=isch&hl=pt-BR&tbs=rimg:CdBUKNSIrHK4YYsBXih3_11bRsgIMCgIIABAAOgQIABAA&client=ms-android-samsung-gj-rev1&prmd=niv&sa=X&ved=0CBIQuIIBahcKEwiw2MC-nZf3AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQBQ&biw=412&bih=806#imgrc=4_37iTEG2y_zXM 2ff7e9595c
