Hi, I've got an S25+ which I didn't update for quite spme time. When I got the phone last year I was mega disappointed with the battery life (and currently still am, just got used to it and to having to keep it permanently on battery saver). I've read some mixed reviews on OneUI 8. Some say it fixes the battery drain, while others complain it starts a battery drain. Similar with the mixed reviews of S25's original battery.

Whats your exp? Should I update it to UI8? Or wait for 8.5 rollout and hope it provides a better batter fix?

▲ 2 r/eGPU

hey, sorry for repeating questions asked a thousand times, but I couldn't find a *definitive* answer to understand if my newly bought ASUS Vivobook is compatible with an eGPU.

1:1 quote from ASUS : USB 4.0 Gen 3 Type-C with support for display / power delivery (data speed up to 40Gbps). I understand it must have PCIe tunneling activate or sum, but got no idea how to check.

Based on the un-definitive answers of related threads, I'm 90% sure it is compatible. However as of my understanding, the 40GBs is more or less limiting. Therefore the connection will be a bottleneck so I shouldn't expect to plug some high end card or so. Which is completely fine, I dont need or want to play triple A's. Maybe some decent graphics on Fort or some shader-ed Minecraft. Keeping in mind the transfer bottleneck, would the eGPU make a big diff. compared to the native radeon 890m?
