I’ve seen that with a microsd, my device uses now battery.
I no longer use microsd now. I was using sandisk 32GB class 10 sdxc
“my device uses now battery.”
What do you mean ?
The way your articles are going, soon we’ll get “how to” on how to take Galaxy Note 9 out of the box. But seriously, Note series is directed for power users who should knoe all this basic stuff. So writing stuff like this one is just silly and done for the sake of writing X ammount of articles a day.
The decision to write “stuff like this” is based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to data which suggests what is being actively searched for. People who are new to the Samsung ecosystem find these articles useful, even if those who are already used to it don’t.
Yeah but we see tons of articles like this everytime when new S or Note is released. Would be easier to make one article with all tutorials and everytime a new handset is released just make one article and give all the links inside? I totally agree with this post, last few articles are completely unnecessary, I don’t think changing a background picture or to turn of power saving mode needs to be explained hundreds of times. Google is quite helpful with this.
Your feedback has been noted. Thank you!
I miss old articles written by Deidre R.
Where he’s ?
