Some Specs Are Absolutely Useless by atheistandproud(op):
I am a big advocate of specs and I have devoted a good part of the last two years to educating people about it.

Some specs are important, others are absolutely not.

Na that VGA and extended RAM dey vex me pass.
Companies are now making 230k phones with 6gb of RAM and adding 6gb of nonsense extended RAM to deceive people that don't know any better.
Another crazy thing is when I see people advertise a clear 6gb RAM phone as 8gb because it has 2gb extended RAM grin

Transsion is fond of that Qvga sensor, you will see a product with 4 cameras of which two are main cameras (Wide and depth) and the rest two are the Qvga sensors.

Swears, and most times they don't make the camera's build, sensor size e.t.c known. Doesn't that means it maybe a generic camera in place, little wonder it wears out later..

It's a cheap generic sensor na

If it were a Sony or Samsung sensor, they'll gladly advertise it. If them lock up then it's absolutely generic.

I know someone who is using this phone. Almost everything about the phone is OK - the only issue with it is that there's no audio when receiving calls unless you switch to speakers. We have tried everything but the problem persists. Does anyone has the solution?

Thanks so much for this video.
Could you please explain the camera sensors more? What are the actual functions of the QGVA sensors? Is it that they're outdated already or that they do not have any tangible function from inception?
My phone has three cameras actually but I could cover two with my finger and it won't still disrupt the coverage, I have always wondered what's the use then.

I said everything is good. The only issue so far is that after about 3 months of use when a call comes in you won't hear the caller except you switch to speakers or use earpiece. I don't know whether this is a general software issue with a11 (4 gig ram, 64 gig internal memory).

the proximity sensor has a fault
Try download an app that disables the proximity sensor (its near the front camera) or maybe dust is on the sensor or something is covering it

Your web browser is out of date or is incompatible with the website.

You can either update your browser or go to your settings and disabled this pop-up.

For future purposes, this is derailing the thread and I may not reply it next time.

What if I didn't have data or didn't show up online for the next two days. I have socials and groups but you guys ignore them.

Bro this is the first time we're actually interacting,i had no other way to contact you.

So how can disable the pop up?
I just bought the laptop and the pop up didn't start until i started downloading apps from websites
I downloaded chrome,notepadd ++,avast antivirus and the mortal Kombat game(i already deleted it think this game was the the issue)

I thought proximity sensors were for screens going off when placed close to the ear to receive calls undecided how does it affect audio? undecided
