Re: Unfair Poll
Alright, I see the thread is still here and so I take the liberty to write something that hopefully makes (some) sense. The CTF forum was founded a couple of months before the 9/11 attacks in 2001 and because of that immediately was flooded after the terrorists flew two planes in the twin towers, e...

Re: benchmark new smartphones:
Many mobile phones with glass backside do not have QI . The z2 force has a plastic screen. Indeed. That helps it to survive when it falls down. And backside is Metall.
