How all the 2025 iPhone models compare on paper https://thever.ge/LK6F #SpecSheet #iPhone #Apple #Tech

[#TLDR: JUST TELL ME IF YOUR TABLET CAN DO #CALLS!]

#DearVendors of #Android-#Tablets:

Off all the #Functions you can put into a #Specifications Sheet of your Devices there's one you should ALWAYS answer clearly on your #Website:

DOES YOUR TABLET [with #4G / #5G / …) SUPPORT MAKING PHONE CALLS?

• NOT "It can run #WhatsApp" (or whatever shitty #CCSS for #VoIP you think of)...

• NOT "It can do #CSD / #HSCSD / #2G / #3G /..."

• But DOES IT SUPPORT #GSM-#Calls (and/or #VoLTE)??

Like: IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK TO HAVE THAT INFO IN THE SPECSHEETS?

You're obviously able to list all the #Codecs natively supported and the user-available storage as well as supported Frequency Bands, WWAN modes, WiFi channel width and the Display Glass vs. Panel dimensions including DPI of the latter and whether or not it has a hall effect sensor to detect your overpriced 1st party tablet covers!

Now some folks may ask: "WHY does this matter?" or outright dismiss this as a problem.

Listen:
Not everyone is able or willing to carry two devices when 1 SHOULD BE ENOUGH and also some places (i.e. #Turkey) have #ImportRestrictions re: #MobileDevices, so having more than 1 #IMEI is already a "NOPE!" by the authorities.

• Also this isn't something one can "fix" post-purchase like installing #VLC to decode some obscure file format in Software: Either the #Baseband and #ROM support #PhoneCalls or they don't!

So why do NONE of the #Tablet manufacturers allow to #search or #filter for that???

• Bonus points if you have lazy fucks like #HMD (aka. #Nokia) who literally copy the #Safety & #Useage information for all #Smartphones and #Tablets and don't even bother to change "Mobile Phone" for "Tablet".

NO, instead one has to download an obscenely huge #PDF just to then read on page 34 that for any "#telephony" function you NEED YET ANOTHER DEVICE FROM THE SAME MANUFACTURER AND HAVE TO SIGNUP WITH AN ACCOUNT and even that level of #abuse WON'T GUARANTEE THAT IT WORKS...

• I mean, come on, this ain't some obscure functionality like #OMAPI to do some "evil sourcery" like managing an #eSIM that is in a #SIM-Card form factor!

Pretty shure A LOT of other folks have the same question and ain't willing to get yet another device & #SIM just to recieve the occasional call because #TechIlliterates can't be assed to send an #eMail or learn #XMPP+#OMEMO to message one...

• Obviously they same manufacturers are able and willing to specify f-stops of the built-in cameras and list EVERY SINGLE #WEARABLE they made and certify as 'compatible' with, as if anyone is gonna take their non-#waterproof #Tablet for a marathon or god forbid triathlon...

@cmdrmoto granted, I have setup some UVC lamp in fishtank water system ages ago because that stuff can actually kill a lot of stuff in the loop and that stuff had all kinds of safety warnings, including the exlicit demand to never ever run it dry or use the light outside it's casing as it can permanently blind.one within seconds.

• Granted this was a professional water treatment component and not something consumers are supposed to get their hands on.

However I know that UVC lights with remotes are used for whole-room sterilization systems in like BSL2 and above labs after pressure-washing surfaces with Steam and wiping down everything with 1-Propanol.

• If in doubt, read the #SafetyDatasheet and stay away from stuff that doesn't come with one - or any #SpecSheet - because w/o professional gear one cannot distinguish a pseudo-white / cold-white blue-is GaAs LED without the yellow photsporous element and real UVC lamps visible emissions.

Unlike say IR where 850nm is faintly red and bright purple on most cameras and 940nm really takes spechal "noIR" unfiltered & Nightvision cameras...
