Target the objectives that best align with your strategy and let the rest go. This can hurt, but that is the point 😀I agree with this. I frankly haven't looked too much at the objectives as a guideline of what I needed to do. Rather focused on my own engine and then finished the rival objectives that fit in there. This led to the rival advancing quite a lot, and also scoring in the endgame scoring, but me scoring more... 😀But take this wi

OnePlus 15 update enables 165Hz for these three apps

5 December 2025 @ 5:16 am

OnePlus is now rolling out a new update for the recently launched OnePlus 15, which brings with it the usual performance improvements and bug fixes. However, there is a change that you won't see in the update log, which we think is perhaps the most important one. Starting with version 16.0.1.305, OnePlus 15 users will be able to access the full 165Hz that the display is capable of in three additional apps. This includes WhatsApp, Instagram, and X (previously Twitter). Previously, this refresh rate was only accessible on a handful of games, with everything else topping out at...
