I had the HTC One X which was literally hot. I couldn’t use it for a few minutes without it burning my hands.

Not cool.

“The Chinese computer manufacturer Lenovo has been sentenced in the USA to pay USD 3.5 m as a fine for installing malware and adware (Superfish) on its laptops without informing its customers. By doing so, Lenovo committed the offence of computer break-in, as it wilfully undermined the security of its computers for users and made them vulnerable to cyber attacks.”

You are probably going to say “but those are Lenovo laptops, not Motorola phones”.

Lenovo owns Motorola. If you want to trust the company feel free to do so.

I am never going to buy a phone from a company with strong ties with the CCP, and a history of installing spyware on its products.

The West doesn’t need nuclear weapons to intimidate Russia.

cloudless, to android in Ram in phones?

Because Android multitasking is inefficient with memory use.

My Palm Pilot had 512 kB of RAM and it could multi-task properly. When I re-open an app on Palm, I could always get back to EXACTLY where it was left off. Palm OS saves the app state before swapping it out of the RAM.

Android apps have to completely restart from fresh after being closed. It multi-tasks by keeping apps running in memory. But you are never going to have enough RAM for the apps if you use a variety of apps.

Samsung’s RAM Plus does something similar, but the apps are not designed to be efficient for virtual memory.
