Im having decision anxiety, Should I cancel my Chuwi Hi8 Pro order (I got for 79.99$) and get a Teclast X98 Pro instead? The issues on Chuwi Hi8 Pro and Teclast X98 first batch seems to be resolved so its nothing about that.
Its just that I already have a 5.5" Xiaomeme redmeme note 3 pro and im wondering if a 8" tablet is a good buy since its almost like the same size, only a little bigger. Wouldnt a 9.7" tablet fit me better? Im gonna use it to watch manga/animu/twitch, maybe would be better if the teclast was 16:10 like the Chuwi but its not its 4:3 and it dosent seem like there is anything close to the X98 Pro but 16:10.

First for chink shit virgin, but that kingdian ssd is really tempting.
>order £200 package >they drop £60 import tax on me fucking REEEEE
Joseph Barnes
OK thanks bud, was removing the star political or just branding?
Liam Myers
Bagel Brand Watch on Aliexpress. Google Bagel Milgauss that one is the best. Hmm, not worth buying. Price doubled or tripled compared to a few years ago.
Jack Williams
Probably a bit of both, can't have a company mascot wearing that sorta stuff when you're trying to have a global appeal.
and your phone is unlock, then you can flash TWRP and any rom you want.

Get a Nexus Player. Don't buy those shitty boxes made for people to hawk "fully loaded" kodi installations to clueless idiots. I bought a mxq pro before and it was a huge mistake.
Isaac Hall
i bought a m8s from gaybeast works perfectly as a cheapass kodi/plex box
Jason Fisher
How much did you pay for it? I paid $41 for my nexus player off ebay. Also what do you usually watch in Kodi? On a shitty box live streaming seems much worse than nexus player/fire stick etc
Joseph Powell
i paid like 30 bucks i think? installed some sport channels and hooked it up to my plex server and gave it to my parents
Connor Miller
I'm going to end up giving my mxq pro to my sister because it's not being used. The main problem is poor support for the codecs on the boxes, they're really pissy. If you go to the Kodi forums you can find tons of complaints. Even though for the most part everything should just work through mediacodec I found the performance to be different when you tried to enable that vs the amlogic shit. Trying to watch 720p 60fps sports streams was not a fun experience. As you'd expect trying to decode it with the cpu instead was a mess, but weirdly if I try to use the cpu to play it back my mom's fire stick it plays the 60fps stuff just fine. It looks like frames are being dropped or something but it's still at least watchable and not choppy.
Ryan Howard
You guys might as well just buy a rasp pi at that price point
Samuel Lee
OP does along with OozutsuCannon
Brandon Collins
Best cheap chinese phone with (atleast) these specs?
>4 cores >2GB of RAM >16GB of internal memory >1280x720 screen
Brayden Gutierrez
I own one of those too. It's much more stable for streaming than any android device but somehow the video quality seems off? Also trying to have kodi and emulators on the same install is a pain in the ass. I tried setting up bluetooth for emulators and failed miserably.
John Collins
Xiaomi Redmi 3 is quite good, there's a also a pro version with 3gb of RAM.
Chase Carter
Quite good, but I was thinking about something around $100, preferably less
They work great in the shower. The range is more than OK, so you can leave your phone a bit further away from your shower. The sound doesn't cut at all when at a reasonable distance. Oh and it also has a good microphone for voice calls.
I definitely recommend them.
Nolan Turner
>Vernee Thor
Are there any decent roms for this? If I buy one what kind of support am I looking at?
It's only a few dollars more however I can't seem to find what makes it truly 'international'. Do you guys think this is just the same phone with the global ROM pre-flashed? Screenshots look bloatware/adware free, but that might just be for screenshots..
Cheers.
Cameron Gray
I don't think germans hate gommies that much
Daniel Reyes
In the shower? Wow I didn't even know that was possible. Are they water resistant?
Jack Reyes
Does it support more bands?
Brayden Ross
How's the sound?
Elijah Jones
it runs stock android out of the box, IIRC. I believe vernee is also planning on releasing the kernel so people can slap whatever rom they make on it, but I'm sure. It only just came out.
Brayden Jones
Not sure, that would be really good if it did though.
Lincoln Ross
How do I know which controllers are worth buying? For use with a pc, don't need anything more than what you would have on a ds3.
I use this one on Android to play emulators, it's just slightly worse than a fake DS3 controller. I don't know how to use bt controllers on windows though
Thomas Lee
Regular earbud-tier, no amazing as a good pair of headphones. They can get fairly loud.
I never bought a very good pair of earbuds to compare, just normal ones.
Jack Reyes
I think you meant that for Water is no match for Democracy
Isaac James
My kz-memes are starting to fail (around the connector) after little more than 1 month of regular use. My pistons 3 died in approximately the same time. Is there a sturdier brand of chinese earphones? I don't think I'm mishandling them, my fallback panasonic have been working great for >2 years.
Lincoln Hill
Yeah, but I would dunk them in water or go swimming with them, but it's fine for the shower, heavy rain and heavy sweat. Keep them in your ear so water doesn't get inside the speaker. You can just blow in them to get back sound if water gets there.
Sebastian Bennett
Where'd you get those Piston 3s?
Cameron Butler
They were legit, banggoiod I think. The left earphone got dimmer and dimmer until it wasn't playing anything anymore.
Aaron Anderson
Interesting, the ATE looked like they could survive a nuclear blast.
Dylan Williams
It's almost always the cable that fails in headphones.
Adam Taylor
m.youtube.com/watch?v=OapEypb8dKQ guy here, I've had mine for over 2 months now and both the pistons and ate's are in tip-top shape.
Owen Gomez
>tfw fedex smartpost I was hyped because I thought I was gonna get my hybrids today, but it turns out the delivery date in tracking is just the date it gets sent to your post office
Christian Sanchez
When I used to live in the Philippines when this would happen I'd buy super cheap headphones that had a similar cable then take it into an electronics repair shop. They'd replace it for like 100 pesos which is like $2.
Shame how here in the US we just treat everything as disposable. If you asked someone to fix something like that I think they would look at you like you are stupid.
Well, it's easy enough to fix with a soldering iron (or even some superglue), but it's probably not worth it with the cheap stuff.
Jason Walker
He just is.
Logan Watson
there's some guides about making a new cable from ethernet cable, can't find the right one tho. It's supposed to be more durable
Jonathan Wood
IPHONE user HERE
THEY UPDATED MY TRACKING INFORMATION
NOW I GET THIS MESSAGE
"It has been served" in Chinese.
But I think it's fake becaause nobody signed fori t, therefore since it's a chink courier company I think they have an arrangement where seller asks them to declare delivered and they do it.
Jack Martin
uuuu
Caleb Price
have you tried running the code at your local post's website ? some of my chink shits tracking nos work here too
Ian Campbell
>Xiaomi Redmi Note 3
Why do chinks come up with the most ridiculous names for products?
>Samsung Galaxy Note 4
What?
Anthony Myers
jsut did that, it said delivered to my local delivery office last week
Oliver Jackson
you can speak to them, but i think the post systems are prone to problems
what makes it international is that it ships with the global rom, but the bands are still the same.
Do not fall for the meme.
Adrian Smith
Well that's great for you, but mine didn't. Obviously not all are going to last the same amount of time. I was just wondering if there's a specific model that is recognized for being especially sturdy.
Parker Price
"iphone" sounds stupid as fuck as well, welcome to 21st century marketing
On the good side, my sharks are in customs, they've arrived yesterday. I hope they don't make me go and fetch'em. 2 weeks since I ordered them, pretty fast considering the seller used Singpost.
Luke Martin
Why havent you ordered your Xiaomi Luggage Suitcase yet user?
Jaxson James
You got the phone right?
Sebastian Johnson
I'd rather get that powerstrip box.
Kayden Cook
I use my ATE for running every day, and I never had any problems.
Leo Rivera
in case anyone cares: Mid-february i ordered a fake jacket from Ali. it was sent after 5 days and i havent received it to this day. apparently he did actually send a package to Germany, but according to the local post office to a completely different adress with a different name. The woman there told me that this happens quite a lot with clothing.
Now I don't even get my money back from Ali for some reason (I used my wifes account for that and I can't see the dispute messages or find the seller, he deleted every article of his shop).
I then created my own account and ordered 20 items of which i received 18 so far, all of them being better than expected.
Evan Bennett
Why did she not send it to you then?
Samuel Morales
Well apparently that woman who received the package is working together with the chinks.
Maybe it was just a mistake of the seller and the woman was happy to get a new jacket, but then explain why the seller deleted all his items and already got similar feedback.
Joseph Brooks
with "The woman there" I meant the woman working at the post office.
Alexander Bell
somebody recommend a waterproof bluetooth speaker for the shower now
