Screen timeout isn’t new…
Correct, but it being adaptive is. I have my screen timeout set for 5 minutes. If it’s adaptive, when I set my phone down it will recognize that I’m no longer using it and turn off the screen before it gets to 5 minutes.
But that’s not new. Adaptive screen when at my ear or when I put it face down had been a thing for years.
It’s been here since the Galaxy S3 days…
I might be wrong, but when you put it face down or near your ear, it doesn’t lock the device no?
This one would lock the device as if screen timed out.
Don’t set it down to watch a video then.
That… would also be part of the adaptive suite. So instead of your phone turning the screen off after being “inactive” it would stay on
If you use smart launcher. It has a feature called Smart display off. Basically, whenever you place it on a flat surface it turns off the display. Sounds similar to that.
Me rereading the title because i thought they added a feature that ive been using since android exists basically and my lego mindstorms EV3 brick has…
