hello, recently migrated to V5 (From galaxy S21U). Overall experience is not bad. A few questions if you don't mind me asking repeated ones:

1. I set the notification bar to pure (i.e. no other app icons besides battery, wifi, data icon), when push notification comes in (e.g. from bank), there is no popup on the top, but the notifications shows up on the notifications menu. Is there any way to enable the popup, but keep the pure settings (otherwise too many icons on top status bar)

2. What is the recommended case for slim but protective on exterior screen?

3. My exterior screen protector has bubble after just 2 days of use, any recommended protectors to buy? Or going to shop to apply will be easier (assuming they can cut to fit the exterior screen).

4. Battery seems to dip more than expected. I assume it's because of my migration i'm using a lot of the screen and later on the optimization and less use will improve battery duration?

5. We can save app pair to home screen, but not 3 apps?

regarding point 4, i think the software is not as optimized? battery is kinda meh. not bad but not great. the battery life on my vivo x200 ultra feels better

Anyone can give feedback if it's better to get the oppo find n5 or honor magic v5?

Looking to upgrade to my first foldable. Have been using one plus 11.

Thanks

The screen on time seems to be fixed showing the last 12 hours and doesn't reset when I charge it. Anyone knows how to change it?

I tried with Qi2 wireless charger is charging very slow. the battery status only shows 'charging' not fast charging. do I need to use Honor brand wireless charger only to get a fast charge?

between a few shops like redwhitemobile, litemobile, mobile hardware, which is more reputable and sell what they advertise (e.g. sealed set = *really* sealed set and not self-sealed and pass off as new?)

my experience:
1. honor power adapter came w/ phone, if using cable it will get super charging 66 watt, if using honor wireless charger stand it will show 40 watt. battery is around 45% when started the charging.
2. using other 3rd GAN charger brick, if with cable it will get super charging 60 watt (not 66 watt). if using honor wireless charger stand it will show 40 watt.
normal right? I can't manage to get 50watt wireless.
