Am I insane if I expect an android 6.0 marshmallow update for the redmi note 3 pro? Don't let me down, based chinks
Aiden James
Yes, that's what Cyanogen is for, man.
Charles Morgan
but cm is shit my amigo. It's a great concept but in reality it doesn't work. They just can't optimize the software as well as the original devs do. The camera always takes worse pics as well on cm.
Liam Collins
Do most phones come preinstalled with clean master? If yes, can I uninstall them without root?
Grayson Gonzalez
What's so bad about an iPhone if I just want to use GPS, texting, calling, browser and mail?
Eli Lewis
Most phones don't. If they do you need root to uninstall them.
Hunter Hughes
Nothing but those features can be found on other smartphones at less cost.
Thomas Bennett
Currently have the LG 3 and its the biggest POS I have ever had. Currently looking for a phone less then $300 USD. Looking for call, text, 4g and GPS. I need a reliable GPS for some reason my LG 3 has trouble with gps... Currently with US Cellular but want a phone I can take anywhere since my contract is up in 2 months. Thanks for the help! From what I have read so far im thinking moto g4 or g4 plus
Easton Miller
Nothing really. My dislike of Apple stemmed from previous iPhones that had screens that were not only tiny, but also cracked after a single drop. It didn't help that they were (and still are) very expensive, and that the cheapest models only had 16GB and were still too pricey
Henry Thomas
Can I make the icons smaller on the desktop of a Moto G3? I have android 6.

Brody Adams
I've had an S4 for 3 years. I think iPhones are more convenient. I do admit I resent their lack of freedom and autism, but it's still convenient. I don't like the fact that the lowest is 16GB, too. I'm pretty happy with the s4 but if I'm going to get a new phone may as well make it one that's convenient.

IIRC there was a leaked 6.0 beta posted a few days ago. I think it will get 6.0 with MiUi 8 in the end of the month.

My issue with iPhones is people are willing to pay a premium price for standard features. The phones themselves are fine.

So guys, I like a big screen and dual speakers on the face. Been using the Nexus 6 for about 2 years now, anything new either those features? Was hoping to get the new Nexus but I read that it won't be a six inch phone. I have massive hands and the phone fits real nice in my hands so I'm hoping to get something close to it. Any suggestions?

I have an opportunity to get Moto X 2014 for dirty cheap - half of Moto X Pure/Style price.
Is it worth it? How's this phone doing today? I know that camera is meh, but I don't use it anyway. My current phone is Galaxy S5 running on CM13, but it's buggy as fuck, and I'm sick of the plastic.

Ill get a phone in december which one should I look out for for ~500$ right now it would be oneplus 3 right? Im guessing therell be better newer alternatives then.
Hudson Diaz
hell no. kek
ask in december.
Easton Lewis
If the Nexus phones aren't ludicrously priced they'll easily compete with the OP3 V20 might be alright
Dominic Garcia
Almost no 6 inch phones on the market, the only I know is this one amazon.com/gp/product/B01IO9XZZA/ and it's not much of an upgrade over your Nexus 6. Not much of an upgrade over the S5, but if you're tired of Sammy, it's a good choice Oneplus 3 and the new Nexus devices
Oliver Gray
Looking for a cheap, compact smartphone. My Galaxy Note 1 with Cyanogenmod 11 is in its death throes. I thought the big screen would be nice, but I only use it for podcasts, Whatsapp and Youtube, very very rarely for webbrowsing. My budget is around 100 Euro, so far I've looked at the Sony Xperia SP, LG Spirit and Motorola Moto G 2nd Gen. I don't want to compromise on the form factor, so 5" is already too big, 4.7" is on the edge. Which smartphone should I get?
Nicholas Nelson
Mi Max.
.Sony Xperia SP, LG Spirit and Motorola Moto G 2nd Gen These are all horrible. Get a Redmi 3s or Vernee Thor. both 100 Euro.
what is the fastest phone out? seriously my LG v10 is so slow when I browse and have other music going
Adrian Thomas
Just ordered my first smartphone and I went full redmeme. The only thing that kinda worries me is the 5.5 screen but I should get used to that pretty quickly I would think. That's it I don't have anything else do add to the discussion.
Ethan Roberts
Their specs are nice, but they're almost as big as my old Galaxy Note :(
Wyatt Kelly
5" is small nowadays. no one makes 4.7" phones anymore. Sony Z3/5c are the only other options.
Logan Long
What's the ROM support for that phone like?
Aiden Nguyen
Oh fuck I just saw a comparison between the max and Nexus 6, a bit too big but it looks damn nice. I suppose the xperia is still good
Easton Turner
It has unofficial CM13 and resurrection remix running. 6.4" is too big though imho.
Jayden Cooper
How terrible is total commander?
Jason Jackson
I got Lumia 550 and my usecase is pretty similar to yours. I paid like 80 euros for mine, 4,7" 720p screen and LTE connectivity. Enough for me, it has all the apps I need(spotify, ssh, e-mail and whatsapp and facebook messenger to keep up with normie friends). Onedrive is okay for sharing the files and onenote works well enough for quick notes. >inb4 botnet2000 >inb4 noapps

A repost, but I got answers for either the Axon 7 or OP3. Any Canadian users have either? Any input in general?
///////////
Ok I've been struggling for months and I'm losing my mind. I just need a mid tier phone (preferably purchasable in Canada and non contract- but I can do US shipping to my friends) that can do the following:
>Typical social apps: Snapchat/Facebook/IG
>Whatsapp/Texts
>WiFi Spotify / YouTube
>Battery life over 4hrs SOT
>Multitasking to be decent (so minimum 2GB RAM?)
>No Gaming except for Pokemon GO at the moment
>Maximum $400 USD / $530 CAD
>MicroSD not necessary
>Decent phone speakers, not very important
I can have my phone shipped to the States if necessary (friend lives there) but I worry about warranty/repairs if the phone has problems here in Toronto so I'd rather not.

>looking for a new phone >everyone recommends the s7 >traumatised after the s5 >I want great performance that keeps it pace and does not slow down half a year later >damn you Samsung
>what do?
Alexander Rogers
Not sure if I can give up on root access. Systemwide Adblock and the F-Droid app repository are quite nice. Some apps like Twilight (Redshift for Android) also require root for better integration.
Regarding this img for a mid-tier budget, what's the benefit of the 6p's stock android over non stock's op3? Also, what about the 6p's updates over the op3's?
Would it affect someone with average phone usage like ?
Wyatt Flores
>Moto G4 no doubt. What about rumored overheating?
Xavier Lee
Chance of a One Plus phone breaking after a year? I have a 3 arriving in the mail and Im wondering if I should keep it even if I like it in the 15 day free-returns-shipping span.
Easton Barnes
Yup, that's really the downside of it, I guess. Like I said, my app/screen on use is pretty minimal so it works for me. And to be honest didn't even consider the redshift angle(even tough I run it on my computer anyway), and losing root acces of your phone is pretty big thing, yeah. You might also have some luck with chinkphones, even tough the most talked about models tend to be over 5" so I'm not too sure about are smaller phones rootable.

SD617 in the Moto G4 is the fixed version of the SD615 in the Moto X Play. they are both shit, but the SD617 less so.
Other than that it's a newer phone, better cameras etc.

Elijah Mitchell
Has Samsung improved their game after the s5?
>less bloatware >faster day to day usage?
Ethan Green
Yeah, they have. Samsung's reliability and battery life were prettty incosistenct for the S3-S5 phones for some reason but they stepped up their game massively with the S6-S7 releases.
Connor Peterson
Man i'm scared. The price of the s7 dropped to around 500 bucks where I live and it looks really good + is top tier on every smartphone ranking. I just don't want to get disappointed again. The s5 served me good for half a year and got really slow afterwards. And I've waited like 8 month for the 6.0 update because carriers here fuck everything up
Michael Hall
I feel you man. There's still plenty of amazing phones outside of the galaxy ones. You're not interested in anything else?
Jason Richardson
I'm looking for something better than my moto g (2014)
I have around $150-200, and use the 30$ tmobile plan that used to be real popular
Should I get an older used flagship or a chinkphone? any specific phone suggestions?
The 3 things I really care about are expandable storage, battery life, and good rom (xda, ect) support
Thank you for your time, I appreciate it.

Of course! Budget does not matter since I can still get one through my contract.

Nathan Cruz
You could get the iPhone if you want to avoid all the headaches,stress and have an instant, great out of the box phone.
I wouldn't say it's similar considering the Note phones have been more consistent compared to the galaxy lines. I own the Note 4 and have a relatives that owns the 5. Both of ours hasn't slowed down at all for the past 1+ year of usage. Mine has a custom rom installed, his doesn't and it feels a lot noticeably faster than mine.
I've also heard great things about the One Plus 3. Great rom support + battery life as well so it's just a coin flip decided for you honestly.
The Note 7 probably won't have rom support for awhile if you're into that whereas you already have impressions you can read up on for the OP3.
One last thing I want to point out is when the Note 4 and 5 released they were consistently in the top 3 of everyone's list from a reviewers point of view so I'm confident that the Note 7 will be up there again.
Chase Green
That sounds really good! I'm not that into Roms to be honest. I don't wanna harm the warranty and I'm too scared to brick the phone, so no Roms would not bother me. Has touchwizz improved btw? Or is it still a giant mess like before. I think the only thing really holding me back is software support. If Samsung would just care as much about their phones software as Apple did, they would he the perfect company I guess. Since tweaking on my own isn't really my thing I highly rely on them.
>nevertheless the giant screen is awesome >wouldn't mind owning a phablet >stylus could come in handy too
Man I love and I hate decisions. I love to read about every phone informing myself about everything, watching reviews and all the good stuff. But actually deciding for one is horryifing since I don't want to end up making a mistake
Nathan Sanchez
I was just watching a video on it. Apparently you can even write on the touchwiz with your pen when it's inches deep in water which is pretty funny lol.
Owning a phablet is awesome man, the Note 7 is apparently a tiny bit smaller than the iPhone 6+.
I'd suggest learning to tweak it one day! You can just install stock apps that could help minimize processes and what not and rooting and installing roms should not brick your phone is you just follow the instructions. XDA is great for all this and plenty of videos out there to walk you through.
Sebastian Phillips
I should definetly check it out.. yeah. I mean It can't be that hard. Anyways thanks for all your help, user! Once I get the phone (whichever it'll be) I'll write a review about it here to give you guys a quick overview from a very picky guy. I'm really favouring the note 7 now. One thing that I definetly have to give Samsung is that they really improved the looks of their phones! Alright thanks for everything!

This is coming from an iPhone 6S user: do not get an iPhone, ever. It's the worst phone you could possibly own. I only got mine because I was curious about all the hype my friends were making. It turns out it's unusable without jailbreak which puts your data in grave danger and in the end still does not supplement an iPhone enough to be worth it as a usable phone imho.
Eli Taylor
1st time Android got a Xiaomi Redmi 3 Pro. What apps are a must. Benefits of rooting and must haves on that end of things?
I hear IMUI is actually pretty good.
Thanks in advance.

Never again.
