    Post cases for OnePlus 8

    What do you guys think about the dual front back clear case concept. I'm not sure. I feel after some time the OP8 has alot of options out now. Same with cases. My phone is currently naked https://www.amazon.com/ZHIKE-Magnetic-Adsorption-One-Piece-Version-Clear/dp/B08C314TSJ

    Post Girlfriend thinks im lying and hiding app sources

    This isnt normal man. I'm 38 and dated many girls. This is kinda extreme. If she goes crazy at apps that might be side loaded vs from Google than what else will she flip out about. An hour late from traffic, had to work overtime and so on.

    I have a question for you guys running phones with a 600+ soc and 3-4+ GB ram. Is an app like this needed or noticeable on Android 9. Other than auto reject calls, etc. Doesn't Android keep available resources needed for the active game you are playing.

    Post Hide time from status bar is possible?

    Unlock System UI Tuner either with a launcher like Nova or a app like short cutter which is great by the way. You should be able to hide anything that shows up in the status bar

    Post Double-tap, or Knock/Knock, to wake up the phone?

    Wouldn't the Face Unlock be much easier and prevent the need for a double tap? Of course it wouldn't work in dark areas. Things like these I think they implement because it might be better or easier

    Thread 6X price keeps dropping, any issues?

    Best buy now has the 6X for $179. I was debating this phone vs Moto G5S Plus or G5S Plus. The G5 is a steady $229 for 3gb and 32gb. Seems the Honor vs Moto is a very close rival like Mustang vs Camaro. Is the Moto worth $50 more? What is it with the Honor 6X to be so cheap now? I'm on T-Mobile...
