like a redmeme 3 pro but with nfc, what options are ther
Tyler James
Hey, goys. I've never had a phone and don't know much about 'em. Need to get dad new phone for father's day even if it's late. He doesn't need an iPhone or a comparatively expensive phone. What's the equivalent of the moto/g/ from a year and a half ago? Or the defacto budjet phone?
I looked at that, but don't necessarily want to get chink shit. Would you be a good little boy and tell me what the current equivalent of the old moto/g/ is?
Robert Bailey
About to go pick up a G5 from t mobile for $400 am I making a mistake?
Dylan Collins
I want to replace my Nokia 630 because WhatsApp can't send videos with WinPhone. (WinPhone a shit).
What I need: >Dual-Sim >mSD-card >front and back camera >good battery life >Tinder >WhatsApp
Should I take a Lenovo K3 Note or a Huawei P8 Lite? I really have no idea about phones and use them mostly for texting and navigation. Germany, Fonic, short on money, size about 5" to 6"
Jonathan Parker
get a xiaomi red pro 3 but its good quality. s5 is good. waterprroof.
Alexander Russell
Whats' the best strategy to maximize mobile life?
Partial discharges? Full discharges only?
Leave it on the charger as much as possible (as it doesn't use the battery then)?
Nexus 6, if it matters
Zachary Wilson
short discharge cycles for lithium ion, full discharge is not so good any more it's not a perfect science :(
Ian Robinson
At least delete those if your'e not updating the news section m8 (although barely any news on a Sunday)
Kayden Brown
>Lenovo K3 Note or a Huawei P8 Lite No to both. tell us your budget.
Aiden Hughes
Do you let your phone battery die completely first when it's new before charging it?
Noah Flores
can anyone suggest a good phone in 300 euro range?
Kevin Martin
Why no to both? They are "better" than my Lumia 630 and it's quite responsive for my normie needs.
Top budget would be 200€.
Cameron Hughes
Those methods are for old phone with old battery tech. nowadays it doesn't matter if your'e letting it die completely or charge it mid way.
Justin Martinez
But it is better to leave it at 100% on charger if you can, right? Then it doesn't draw off the battery and is effectively as if it were 'off', right?
Caleb Bailey
The K3 has shit specs, and P8 lite is old as well. for 200€ there dozen better choices. e.g
OP2 Mi5 Z3+ RN3P
Etc.
Julian Morgan
I need a durable ass phone. I've tried the Galaxy S5 Active and it's plenty durable but >Samsung >AT&T >Bloatware
Any suggestions?
Alexander Foster
it's taking fucking forever to transfer a few visual novels to my phone
the first few were very fast, but not it's taking like 15+ hours to transfer a 120mb folder over
I've tried restarting the phone and the pc that I'm transferring from but it still takes a long as fuck time, even over usb 3.0
How does the S7 dual sim work? It means I can only have either a sim card and microsd or 2 sims?
Grayson Cooper
Sorry for being a pleb, but I don't know jack shit about how carrier networks, "bands", etc. Would this phone be able to get service from major carriers in the US?
And no, Redmi's lack most American carrier compatibility.
Ayden Miller
Answer is in OP.
Henry Carter
Tell me 1 (one) reason why I should upgrade from S4 to S7.
Bentley Lopez
Is that "L Speed" app placebo or does it actually work?
Cooper Wood
If you have money to waste, why not?
although I'd recommend a sony phone if you do plan on upgrading
Jaxon Jenkins
Just about everyone in the last thread said current sony is shit though
Hunter Bailey
Oh...
I just got home..
Why is Sony bad nowadays?
James Ramirez
I'm not a fanboy but I upgraded from S to S4. I'd like to keep the chain going because autism but I'm having a hard time thinking of reasons to upgrade.
Kevin Barnes
Poor build quality, bad cameras, bad specs for the prices they charge, removing features for no reason, slow updates, going backwards with design on X series.
David Reed
he said at&t that thing gets no coverage in the states
Jose Gutierrez
actually it gets 3g but not 4g lte. Is it worth getting a phone that doesnt have 4g support?
Justin Jones
any phone that is better than RN3P?
Jose Walker
>tfw can download any album I want from google play music directly from google's servers the best $5 I have spent ever.
Jordan Brooks
Who makes the best extended batteries? I need one for my s4
Ryder Johnson
Zero lemon i guess
Eli Morris
Do you recommend IQ shield for my S7 (not edge?) I was wondering if I should get the case friendly or just the full one
Alexander Campbell
convince me not to get the OP3 next week guys
Adrian Bailey
The battery is shit.
Luke Cox
there is literally no reason not to buy one if you're in the market for a flagship-tier sd820 phone
I can't think of a flaw other than the shoddy ram management I've been reading about. That could be fixed with a software update though.
Brandon Richardson
I wish you could build your own phone. I would remove cameras to reduce the price.
Aaron Hernandez
is there a 5-inch equivalent of the redmi note 3 pro?
Adam Nelson
Yeah it's a shame that those chinkphones don't have all the American bands. I wouldn't get a phone that doesn't support 4G, it also lacks one of the 3G bands so you might no have reception at all.
Liam Jones
The screen is awful. Like, seriously bad.
Landon Ross
damn shame the specs on that bv6000 are ridiculous for the price. Can't find a phone with an sd and good battery for anywhere near the price. Smartphone market is so disappointing and overpriced.
Gabriel Murphy
Nope. Redmi 3 is 5" but with gimped SoC. Mi4c is SD808 but no SD card and smaller battery.
Parker Thomas

Lincoln Parker
>OP2: 350€ >Mi5: 479€ >Z3+: 289€ >RN3P: 179€
That's german prices.
Dominic Taylor
Can anyone explain rooting to me?
>have galaxy S4 running 5.1 >want to learn how to root and want to learn how to root, change themes (like removing the clock from the notification bar) >don't know what I'm doing
It seems like a lot of work desu and I'm not sure I understand a lot of the terminology.
Grayson Watson
Reported :^)
Ryder Brown
Sorry didn't mention budget last time.
Part of the consideration of the Nexus 5x is the price. Looking to stay under 400. I'm flexible though and if I have to go used I don't mind.
Honestly I'm not looking for a monster of a phone. Kind looking for just the opposite. My experiences with the Galaxy S5 and LG G3 which were powerful for their time was shit. High power and over sized resolution leading to bad battery and too much heat for a phone.
I just miss my Nexus 4. It ran so smoothly and everything on it was so good except the battery, but at least it was upfront about that. And its screen didn't drain so much battery that you couldn't charge it with a battery pack on the go.
David Mitchell
Cool :^)
Levi Morales
Well, you can always order from China and hope customs don't catch it. anyway, the RN3P is in your range and it's the best choice either way IMHO.
It's miles better than those Lenovo and Huawei models and every parameter.
Dylan Thompson
Smartphone market is disappointing if you don't want to waste 700$ on a fucking phone or are an iFag. But yeah, let's all buy that nice and new consumer device that won't give you a SoT over 3h, good goy. Get you retarded fuck.
Julian Peterson
in* every parameter.
Juan Walker
I'll read some reviews and place an order this evening. Thank you, honorable senpai, for your advice.
Julian Reed
It's a great device, you won't regret it. make sure it's the Pro version (SD650) and 3GB RAM.
Wyatt Wilson
is there a way I can flash stock android on this? It would literally be the best
Grayson Lopez
Any good chinkphones with front facing speakers? I was looking at the recommended list in OP but none of those have it.
Henry Rogers
Considering buying my own S5. Can you just disable / uninstall the bloatware or is it stuck on 5ever
Elijah Moore
Yes. there's both an AOSP and CM13 roms available for it.
Grayson Sanchez

Julian Long
Do note however that you need to unlock the booloader, flash TWRP and developer rom, and then you can flash whatever rom you want.
Disabling worked on mine. Removal caused some crashing. Version could influence this. Overall though it was a shit phone outside of having a nice vivid screen.
John Phillips
>tfw no RN3P on my local store >only RN3 and Redmeme 3 available what should I get lads?
Xavier Cruz
Can you elaborate on that? I heard the OP2 screen was bad. Are you referring to the 1080p AMOLED screen?>DASH Charging
Jonathan Perez
Waffles topped with strawberries and whipped cream.
Andrew Jackson
Yes, it's very bad. Benchmarks show its extremely inaccurate and badly calibrated.
"Dash charge" only works with the approved charger and only on the stock rom.
Julian Walker
Got a Moto Z Force w/ moto mods to review. AMA
Josiah Bennett
so i just got a galaxy s7 edge, been setting it up for a few days
im trying to get the google now widget to work since it looks like it would be amazing
however all it ever shows no matter what i do in the now app itself, and no matter how big i make it, it only shows the weather and "more cards"
Noah Garcia
>DASH Charging >only works with DashCharge™ OnePlus™ DashCharger™ >only works with stock rom No thanks.
Bentley Wright
ooooooh that dash part got me Idk about the display though I'll look more into those
Jayden Jones
RN3 is still better than R3.
William Sanders
Update the google app.
Juan Reyes
its fully updated according tot he play store
i tried signing out of google and resigning in as well
uninstalling it and reinstalling
Parker Murphy
What do you want? The widget bar with "ok google" thing?
Not sure if this is the right place, I mostly hang around /o/ but I need a new phone very soon, price point around $300, I would like at least a 1080p screen, and a processor/gpu that can keep up with that. Any recommendations? I have T-Mobile
Hudson James
Still don't know how the 6s is better than the S7 edge. The battery is LITERALLY half the size. Some kind of bullshit going on here.
Blake Price
Oneplus 2 (SD810, but Oxygen OS is similar to stock android) or Le Max 2 X820 (SD820 but OS is Chinese clusterfuck).
Nolan Kelly
Still waiting.
Josiah Wood
Can anyone suggest me a phone that: >works with my carrier (US, Sprint) >can be rooted, and have unlocked bootloader >custom rom support >2GB or more ram >at least 16GB storage >at least 5 hour battery life thanks!
Xavier Carter
i know about the launcher, i am wanting the widget to show me bits of the cards like it shows in the preview, news/trip/ etc not just the weather. its supposed to show stuff from each of the app's cards
Daniel Barnes
Le max 2 seems like shit compared to chink phones and the one plus 2, why one plus 2 over mi 5?
Joseph Butler
>Le max 2 seems like shit compared to chink phones and the one plus 2 How is it shit when it has better SoC and more RAM? lol.
He said budget his is $300. Mi5 is $350.
Jayden Ross
my bad I flipped oneplus and le max, point still stands though, why le max over mi 5?
Lucas Lewis
What phone would you recommend with good custom rom support under $300? My Moto Sup Forums fell and the screen broke so I think it's time to get a new phone
Anthony Martinez
that was me, I'm retarded, also budget around $300, so 350 is reasonable, even $400 if it was a solid phone that would last a while. Had a blu life pure before this.
>why le max over mi 5? Well, it's cheaper. other than that I'd pick the Mi5 over it as well. it has less bloat and Xiaomi is a better brand IMO. for $400 you can get a Mi5 or Oneplus 3. people itt clearly have strong opinions about the OP3 so please read about it before.
Joshua Martinez
Don't have a phone with me right now but IIRC the cards it shows you you can change somewhere in the google now settings.
Julian Cooper
when are the next nexus phones being released/announced?
Alexander Walker
Shit good call, Oneplus 3 seems like a decent competitor, Which one do you think would be more reliable, better value?
Zachary Lee
Axon 7 is coming out soon, apparently has some of the best speakers. $450 though
