At this point I’m actively refusing to replace any of my mobile devices no matter how horrifying their physical condition is because if I can keep them on life support for another three years I just might be able to purchase their successors in the era of legally mandatory user-serviceable batteries.

Where the Android Tablet is today, and what it might become in a post chromebook world..

There has been a lot of discussion about Google, chromeOS, and the future on this Discord, and this post isn't about that. this post looks at the current state of Android Tablets where they can learn from chromeOS and also where Google might go with this..

To do this I've recently purchased the very large Samsung Galaxy Tab10 Ultra. this is a very big, premium tablet device from arguably one of the biggest Android device manufacturers on the planet. A company whom while the rest of the world forgot about android tablets, carried on and paved a solid lineup of Galaxy Tab products.

The purpose of purchasing this behemoth as two fold. firstly I like big tablets, big real-estate. I take a lot of photos, and having the bigger screen helps a lot editing and working with both photos and videos. The second reason was. Its about the sweet spot for a laptop screen as well. So with the Samsung Folio keyboard, there is a familiarity as a Chromebook user to all of this..

So lets cut to the chase, what has a week using this device to do work been like?

At times it felt just like being on a Chromebook, others its as frustrating as anything.. However its frustrating for the same reasons a Windows User would be frustrated going to a Mac (or Vice Versa). things are not available..

Lets start with the good…

Putting the Samsung Folio keyboard on this tablet, and sitting down at a desk, turning on Dex and working was, because i've been using chromeOS, a seamless experience in the most part. I'm used to the Android experience or the web app experience. The tablet is quick. I'm able to edit Insta360 Videos, or in Lightroom or VCSO.. I get Slack messages and apparently look good in Meet calls because the webcam is where it should be (top middle in landscape mode). the battery has lasted all day and I've been able to do what I need to do (DevOps, Ansible, Terraform, sysadmin stuff)

The processor is more than capable of having 15+ apps running, multiple tabs.. the screen is crystal clear, the speakers are good. However i'd expect all of this, its a premium product (RRP: £800ish) just as I would from a similar priced chromeOS tablet.

However I do think this is the case because of the tablets screen real-estate. personally i think if i had got the Galaxy tab10 plus with a smaller screen, I'd have felt much more constricted in what I was doing..

Compared to the Ipad Pro experience, this is no matter what any tech bro influencer will tell you a huge leap over said device. Being able to actually multi task and run apps (in dex) not full screen alone takes this to a level above the Apple product.

However then there is whats missing.. These as i inferred above are things i've noticed having used a Chromebook as my daily driver for the last 5+ years.

As a huge Linux user on Native platforms and chromeOS, i really missed the Chromebooks Linux shell. this is something I've seen Google are working on with android. Both the full debian runing on the OS with Icons aoppearing when you install Linux apps with GUI's (OnlyOffice for example) which launch independetly of the shell is not a feature to be sniffed at and IMO make the Chromebook one of the best entry level Linux devices available today. Whatever Google have done here, they need to replicate.

I'd also like to see the desktop version of the Chrome browser especially on the bigger scren, the android version of chrome is ok for most things, having the desktop version however should not be a huge leap of development to get this working.. with a huge highlight on PWAs which i use a lot on ChromeOS

Finally there is Dex, I have a love hate relationship over the years with Dex, and the classic version has been my workhorse for the last week. with a keyboard, mouse and external monitor this is more than a workable solution for checking email, slack, meet meetings and even some coding. All the time however i am thinking why not chromeOS?

Dex for its time was a great and groundbreaking idea, and interestingly is the last of many convergence tools over the years, and its always made we wonder why when i plug in a Pixel Phone/Tablet into a USB Hub with a monitor I don't get a ChromeOS like experience.

So what are my thoughts on chromeOS becoming Android based on using arguably the top tier Android experience as my sole PC for a week?

It boils for me into these areas

While ChromeOS will run fine on a 4Gb Arm chip for browsing the web and a few tasks. 8Gb is the minimum you need to start using it properly.. The same will be the same with any new android tablet, for this to work, the 8Gb equivalent needs to be the base hardware, same with processors and storage. Google will need as they did with chromebook Plus to set a minimum spec for these new devices day 1. Or they will cause a lot of market confusion and again get that chromeOS low power second screen device label that they have never shifted from the tech press narrative. This i think has only worked for me because of the premium experience, i think had i gone mid tier i'd have been writing something very different.

The interface and app experience is somewhat comparable, however if Google do put the desktop browser on android as has been suggested they may do, this will make a big difference. OneUI for all its haters, does do a good job of presenting a nice desktop above the Pixel equivalent. Its, dare i say it, more "windows like" and having that as an option interface wise would be a good thing.

Expanding on Interface, the experience presnted to the user of Dex when plugging into an external monitor and adding a keyboard/mouse is important, I would like to see Google work here on something which looks like chromeOS appear when i plug an (lets call it Android Plus) Android Plus device into a hub. a step above dex and a more Usable desktop. this provides huge value ad, and really starts to differentiate Android from Ipad Pro and (i think its called) stage manager. This starts to become an easy drop in replacement for schools, businesses etc while staying familiar and enterprise admins can still do thier thing.

And finally there are things which google should 100% be pulling over from ChromeOS, i think the whole material you type experience is better on chromeOS (although this might just be Samsungs OneUI), the Linux shell experience is another huge thing. Better PWA support and the inbuilt VPN support would be nice too.

All in all a space I'll be hugely interested in over the next few years, if google is serious about making a dent in that lucrative iPad/Pro market it needs to make changes and the convergence of the two OS might actually be the thing which takes the Android OS everyone gave up on on Tablets and the chromeOS only good as a second screen device and makes them the thing you guy to get stuff done..

L1: Introduction to Mobile Computing

Hello everyone welcome to easy engineering classes students, with this blog we are starting the blog lecture series of mobile computing subject, so it is normal in universities, colleges, in this, this subject is run within one semester final year, 100 very short blogs, we Inside this, we will give to the point blogs so that you do not face any problem on this topic in Phantom Exam. So while starting mobile computing, first of all we will see the introduction of worst which keep taking details about the introduction of mobile computing so what is mobile computing. This technology policy technology battle of that anytime anywhere and everywhere computing means direct share look in this what is the meaning of mobile note stationery is not stationery we have been above then the meaning of mobile is that note stationery computing means what is cheerful then computing is the activity of developing and User Computer Technology Simple Using Computer Technology If I say mobile computing in simple tense then what if we can use the technology of computer, the computation power of computer as mobile i.e. while going anywhere even while moving. So we call it mobile computing song, here we have written the same thing, what is written anytime, anywhere, anywhere and everywhere, What is the advantage of this, first of all it is the middle of the user to perform any task from anywhere, now it is a simple thing that one user has RAM from the latest and that user has to check his mail, no response to check mail now normal. Till then we don't have mobiles so we have to check mail at our homes or in our offices where we have desktop or laptop for the vision internet connection. But now this user has an advanced mobile device, only late it Mobile device with an active internet connection, so this user can check his mails from anywhere. I have written the same thing here except the uses to perform any task from anywhere and two mobile computing devices. What do we generally talk about as computing devices? Mobiles, tablets are PM, so we generally use all these computing devices in this way. We are talking about mobile computing. Wrong seconds. Communication spread over both wide and wireless medium. Now this is a very important point. Active Word. Of violence, this communication is spread on both the media, so basically it happens in the camp, since late today, this is our access point, we are the access point from where you get the facility of internet, if the internet connection is provided to you, then till the access point. Our wide collection will be general, which is till the access point. We will have wide collection because wide collection gives better performance. Wireless will have good speed, there will be stability, there will be security in the condition. Now wide collection came towards this access point, after that there should be different different access points here. Which can be wirelessly connected, so here different different access points will be connected through your violence communication and here again on the pan you have reached this particular person in the message, even something like this is a network connection. A user can connect with his wireless device on this route. Mobile and other Android devices. Once a user accesses it, he can access the network from his mobile. Set up some speed for distributed computing systems. Why are they saying distributed? Where will you get a mobile, a mobile is available

Now mobile computing is true. If you look at mobile computing normally, you will see two different things in mobile computing. When we say this, then we are talking about mobile computing. You are also looking at the subject, we see it like mobile communication and you can say that mobile communication is also a sub part of it, now what is the difference between mobile computing and mobile communication? What is the difference between the store, so what is mobile computing? Saying this Titu will automatically carry out a certain process Singh Processing Unit Service Key Me Aa Simple Write Processing Related Services in Remote Computer Key Processing Related Sir Special Mode on Remote Computer Some such services require processing power and you need to remotely If you want to do that then we will call that thing mobile computing and what is the meaning of mobile communication it is the question read change the location while communicating its discursive to change the location of a while communicating a that now see what is the meaning of this speak one here m That one user latest user name that and his talking to someone uses of birds in this time in sea sea city bus this was in Delhi this in Mumbai and both of them are talking to each other these two are talking to each other so that now What is mobile communication?

If we had to talk on location only, what did we use? Earlier we used to use landline, but because of mobile communication, what has become possible that you can talk even while changing the location while walking, even you can invoke. Service on Remote Computer Even You Can Invoke the Service of Remote Computer A Member Basic Idea of Mobile Computing Sunn Letters Addressed Different Names which are given to Mobile Computing are used with Mobile Computing So first of all Mobile Computing by Name Generally the details are given in the development of computing. A few can write that young people are computing, it is also called development computing. Now it means blending of the computing devices with environmental objects and integration of computers in two objects. Now this thing is another thing that Internet is coming everywhere and inside everything. If you listen to your refrigerator, there is an IT enabled refrigerator inside it too. Internet is ahead inside it, it will tell you that this vegetable is finished, if this thing is finished, then the integration of computers. With everything integration of map I am writing this you can that related with your computer with everything that when it is also known as nomadic computing a nomadic computing is a then what does it mean Sunn Monday computer means

Also Read- bank account freeze ho jaye to kya kare It is side by side with your user, moving along the user's method. Now your phone is not such that you go from home to office and left your phone at home. If it is not so, then keep the phone with you, that is, if the computing power is moving with you, then moving. With user the British nomadic computing when you can also qualities famous computing volume super specific computing also speak but is the meaning of this but from only in famous what is the meaning of love here famous means existing in all parts of place or Thing Everywhere Everywhere If there is any computing everywhere then we will call it mobile computing and in today's time I do not need to explain that mobile computing is everywhere so it is exhausting and existing at everywhere I am mobile computing everywhere.

According to my research, this is the only modern, flagship phone with both a 3.5mm jack and SD cardslot.... so I bought one. Sony apparently has a pretty spotty reputation with phones, but this one seems generally well liked and I've decided to conclude my 2-year experiment with switching to iOS (results: it sucks for most reasons).

(trying to get my momentum back by drawing prompts and backlogged asks, the prompts for this one were: computer, health and well-being, and an olive/cream/brown color scheme)

this one gave me an idea about an advanced super computer built at a university by students, and he falls in love with the one put in charge of testing his "human interaction and caretaking" protocol. they're a bit apprehensive, obviously.

if the computer can learn to see humans as "good," and meant to be cared for," hopefully he won't go against his programming and try to exterminate them (like many of the university's prototypes). however, he seems to only care for one human in particular...
