I totally agree with you. Just maklethe whole thing thicker. I really don't like the camera bumps we already have today. I do wonder with the rate at which manufacturing is moving to new advance process nodes will we need them below 2nm
Also make them out of grippier material. Half the reason why my phones are cased is because leather is easier to hold onto than glass or smoothly polished metal.
One thing that's important to point out, though, is that it can't cool under water.
So while it is certified not to die unless you exeed the under water period and it will also eject the water that made it inside to recover from immersion, while it's inside, it's outside operational specs.
I order to recover it evidently must be able to more (or even vaporize) the first droplets towards the exit and then work backward, but it's not exactly pumping water and might actually shut down while immersed to avoid damage.
Not sure if salt crystals will count as dust, should you try this in the great outdoors.
A shame, a compact low/moderate flow very low noise water pump wold be a really nice option for liquid cooling.
Though I suppose this could be a case of "nope, can't pump water, definitely not, no silent pumping here, absolutely no big deliveries to General Dynamics Electric Boat, nope".
Hey everyone! Check out my Super Sport Sport Utility Vehicle with Sport Steering, Sport Spoiler, and Sport Tyres!
Really, slapping the word sport on something makes it faster, better, and more amazing-er as demonstrated by sport SUVs. Or at any rate, people are stupid enough not to question it and just assume the marketing injected into our brains that sport = good is not to be questioned.
That rant aside, its interesting to see the ongoing development of the underlying technology even if the people behind said technology are absolute imbeciles when it comes to giving it a name.
If the technology becomes as revolutionary as they claim (benefiting from further improvements, including node shrinks!), then it could become semi-ubiquitous in premium and thin devices. No consumer will need to know about the "Frore AirJet Mini Sport" name because it's a component sold to OEMs.
The reviews of the Zotac i3-N300 box using these were not too kind. Hopefully it can be made to dissipate more heat after further revisions.
Considering the 3.5mm increase in thickness, I doubt there will be many phone manufacturers that would be willing to go through the trouble of putting one of these into a handset just for something as absurd as improving the owner's experience using a handset. Phones are made to as data collections and civil population monitoring devices for marketing purposes and have nothing at all to do with giving the user sustained performance. The specs are just on-paper candy to get people to buy and then tell one another about how amazed they are so someone else makes a purchase too.
"Phones are made to as data collections and civil population monitoring devices for marketing purposes and have nothing at all to do with giving the user sustained performance."
It would be a poor design if it added that full thickness to a phone, it should be on the processor as a heatsink, it will take some volume from the battery though most likely.
I've come to believe that most marketing is 100% lying and manipulation.
I'm with you there.
I'm also with on the portable tracking device that people willingly, even lovingly, carry around with them at all times, while it's radiating their delicate body parts doing who knows what long term harm.
It's quite the scheme that most fall for!
It should also be indicative of the true motive behind them when you realize phones are good at everything... except being a phone.

If the smartphone requires an enlarged camera bulge, then it would be nice if the maker enlarge the battery.Tams80 - Wednesday, June 26, 2024 - link
Yeah, just make the whole thing thicker and more ergonomic instead of having any silly hump at all.KimGitz - Friday, June 28, 2024 - link

Could somebody else please go first?

I assume they called this one "sport" because people carry their phones in a sweaty pocket while they are doing a sport.so it's aptly named.

A real bezel might've made the speaker slightly better positioned, but seems to work well enough?sheh - Sunday, June 30, 2024 - link
As @meacupla said, I imagine the thinking is that wetness might come from "sporting" activities, and "outdoors" is less glamorous.Other than that, I'm waiting for AirJet AI.
