What does "outperform" mean? There's a growing consensus that for standard good light point and shoot to conventional standards (e.g. postcards, snapshots, selfies) the phones beat compact ...

I only first tried connecting my Canon Camera directly to an Android N (7.1.1) tablet vial OTG cable this morning, looking at another thread here.  After connection a notification appears, and ...

... I hadn't tried accessing the camera by OTG before, interesting. As to thumb drives, on my Lenovo Android N (7.1.1) tablet plugging a USB drive (NTFS format) into the OTG adapter brings up a ...

Hate to say it, but you may simply have bought too good a phone for the "workaround" hacks that provide DNG for older/lower-end models, i.e. those that don't have the latest HAL (hardware ...

I can see many drivers needing instand live traffic information, from online sources like Google Maps or Waze, but for simple directions there are much better offline navigation apps based on Open ...

I should have added that Google's Snapseed editor and most standard viewers won't recognize the non-standard DNGs, but Photoshop LIghtroom CC, Photo Mate and some specialized viewers will.  Any PC ...

Bacon Camera and Snap Camera HDR both generate non-standard DNGs even on Camera1 API phones - I've given up predicting whether and how well any third party app will perform on any given brand or ...

Withdrawn.

Don't see it coming from Canon, but there's not much preventing Sony from integrating a very good full-featured Android interface (with or without cell network), a fast procesor and lots of RAM, ...

User interfaces are very much in the eye of the beholder, I'd test a (limited functionality) trial version before spending. You don't mention if your PC or phone images include RAW / DNG. I have ...

I admit, I'm afraid to ask.  That's why I disabled GA on all devices.

Unless it's only idle curiosity, you ought to specify a phone manufacturer and model. Half the users in this forum are on Apple the rest on mainly Android. Different Android devices even by the ...

I like the idea of a "Vintage" or "Oldies but Goodies" DPReview forum, that might cut across the manufacturers. Amazon owns DPReview, so searched for the A80 that was my first Canon and it still ...

Not clear from the question whether the data need is for heavy daily volume or just better reliability during the day.  I'm a light phone data user and have fibre optic internet at home.  The Bell ...

I don't think any online comparison can do you any good, because the compatibility of apps with any given OEM's hardware configuration and implementation of the Android Camera APIs is all over the ...

I always have a Gorillapod and an eBay mounting bracket for the phone in a daypack. Mine supports a bridge camera but they make smaller ones. Very light and has the advantage of being able to ...

Nice score of a nice cam. The main problems most users had with output was chromatic aberration (purple fringe) along sharp contrast lines, easily fixable in post-processing but corrected ...

I see the GitHub project was updated last year but download is for a Zip of folders / files, that I don't know what to do with - likely there's a way to create a standard APK package from that ...

I think this sums it up for this type of camera. Would be a little more specific about using focus lock (AFL) for those situations where there is a fixed object near the action (e.g. a pole, tree, ...

For those uses I'd at least look at a Blackberry (yup, they're still around, and with Android) with a good QWERTY keyboard. Amazon is selling them in shapes and sizes at various price points. UPDAT ...
