Welp. I cry, then. My Windows Phone is on the way out, so I need a replacement ASAP. Only got 350 eurodosh to spend on a new phone. Please advise! Also where in Europe buy phones online?
Levi Wood
Those specs of the redmi note 4 seem kinda meh to me. Not many upgrades besides the supposed cpu upgrade.
Brandon Rogers
Yeah I hope that leak is wrong. previous leak said SD625 for the R4 and SD652 for the RN4 which is much better than MTK P10/X20.
Easton Brooks

Well I guess there could still be snapdragon versions later on maybe as a pro model. But still besides the cpu there aren't any notable upgrades I feel. i also sincerely hope this time it's of better build quality.
Austin Adams
higher your budget by 50 euros and buy a oneplus3
Kayden James
I need a new mobile phone to play Mobius Final Fantasy.
Recommend me a phone that will handle it well.
Lucas Garcia
I'm not entirely sure, but I think I can get an Xperia Z5 Performance for like $250 (with a contract, though)
Is that worth it? I kinda like the look of recent Xperia phones, and it seems like a pretty good deal.
Hunter Gutierrez
Not in a contract man. Don't be conned.
Owen Brown
I must be retarded, cause I can't find it for 399 euro anywhere.
Benjamin Price
I'm currently living in Japan where my options are basically get a contract or roll the dice on a used phone and MVNO that may or may not work.
I'm pretty sure this is telling me if I switch over from a different carrier I get a huge discount. It offsets the cost of the plan, to some degree
Anthony Russell
Are there any real downsides to the OnePlus3? I seem to remember discussing updates with a friend and apparently OP don't put out updates terribly often?
Evan Wood
Lack of SD card is the reason i won't get one, software updates w ere pretty good iirc though? Though that might be good for chink phones.
Tyler Allen
The lack of SD card bugs me but it does have 64Gb of storage so I'm alright with that to be honest.
Do Chinkphones update just like a regular Western bought phone or what
Joshua Flores
Video didnt seem that great on all the reviews, especially stabilization was subpar iirc. Otherwise for the lack of sd and stereo speakers theres nothing better for the price.
I would look to an axon 7 for hw or opo3 for software
David Moore
I'm about to buy a oneplus 3 next week Sup Forumsuys. Any last words on whether I should go through with this decision? I've been using iphones for most of my smartphone life. And think today is the day I should switch. Or is the Umi Max more like something I should wait for? (Specs look pretty decent)
Nathan Diaz
guys I have a problem. my redmi note 3 pro (MIUI) keeps closing apps in the background. let's say I'm listening to internet radio while browsing. At some point the music just stops. And while the radio is still visible in the apptray (or whatever that thing is called where you can tab through all your active apps), whenever I try to maximise it it acts as if it had been started from scratch (back to the start menu, loading screen etc.). Any idea what's happening?
I just got this phone a day ago so I might be missing something easy. but at this point I feel like I'm using an old iOS.
Dylan Kelly
their website?
Isaac Myers
I think that's a battery saving feature of MIUI, should be able to change it in settings.
Luke Nguyen
Is the HTC One 2 a good phone for casual use? (eg. Sup Forums, sms, calling, non-heavy gaming)
Josiah Young
Not in stock/no invite/not sucking enough of the cocks?
Easton White
Guys, my galaxy s3 is locked to a portuguese network. Its quite an old phone and i don't have a budget to buy a new one now. I need the unlock code, can anyone help me get it? i've seen some websites but they're all paid. I've moved to another country and need a new sim pls help dear anons
Carter Perry
do you mean the one M8 or the one mini 2? the M8 is EOL and only good now if you put CM13 on it. the one mini 2 has a SD400 which is super gimped and the phone didn't even get any updates and was stuck on 4.4.4 and doesn't even have any 3rd party ROMs.
Brody Bailey

Xavier Morris
don't i need to root it to use that? i would root it np but the micro usb entrance is broken, i bought a wireless charger for it... as you can see my life fucking sucks
Jacob Cox
Dunno if I'm arsed about video desu
Connor Anderson
My chinkphone prestigio multiphone 7500 has got a virus which downloads apps by itself, takes pics by itself and ads keep popping on the screen even after many factory resets, one guy told me that its ROM is infected, I can't find the firmware for it online and i dont know how to fix it. Can anyone help? Jellybean android
Connor Brooks
Be real with me, /spg/. Is there a point to having a tempered glass screen protector? Does it change anything if my phone has Gorilla Glass 4 screen? I almost never seriously drop my phone and don't carry anything else in my phone pocket.
What benefit would a glass screen protector provide for me? Can they actually protect phones from otherwise screen-shattering drops?
Aiden Bailey
New Nexus, S7 or Note 7 See chart And Gorilla Glass 4 was already less scratch resistant than Gorilla Glass 3 HTC 10, S7, Note 7, OP3... See chart I've had 4 updates since launch... Sales are halted in Europe until the second week of September.
Check out oppomart
Grayson Campbell
they're for scratches. Nothing will prevent your screen from shattering. Don't believe the marketing hype, your screen will get scratches, they may be tiny but it'll scratch, and if that bothers you then put on the screen protector.
Nicholas Reed
>recommending samsung phones which don't respect freedom, by forcing knox and unrootable devices upon people.
Kevin Bennett
So let's see, my first recommendations are the new Nexus and the HTC 10, what are you talking about faggot?
If you don't care about rooting, Samsung phones are good.
Jeremiah White
Yeah, I got one or two tiny 2mm scratches for some reason. They don't bother me as much as having another glass pane on my screen. I guess I won't put glass on my next phone and see how it goes. Thanks!
Brody Diaz
Thanks, I think that did it. Kinda strange though since the default setting should have battery saving off.
Ian Young
>touchjiz >good pick one.
Nathan Torres
Shit, they claim to give $220 in trade for my 5S.
So it'd basically be $30 to upgrade from an iPhone 5S I've used for 2 years to a new Xperia 5 Premium.
I might have to go for it. I wanted to wait for the Note 7, but this seems pretty good.
Is this a trap?
Luis Johnson
Is the note 4 edge a good purchase in 2016?
Evan Long
I just picked up the Premium, haven't even peeled off the back plastic yet, waiting for screen protector as I could only find front at my local stores
the phone is absolute cuhrazy especially nice if you have plenty 4k stored and you stream it with dlna, not that you need it, but it feels mustard anyways
if you can get this for that price you mentioned do it man
Wyatt Bennett
Hello Sup Forums, I want a phone that has superAMOLED, lte for europe, 5.1' screen, bigger prefered. Thx. Ability to install custom ROM is a must
Lucas Jenkins
Why the fuck would you want a screen protector on its sand blasted back ?
Why the fuck did they choose a lesser finish on the Premium model ?
Daniel Adams
because it's glass and glass is fragile and the premium isn't assblasted it has a mirror finish, they just come wrapped in plastic that you need to peel off
Jose Watson
I'll be upgrading my iphone 6 to a note 7 next week. As someone who's been in the apple concentration camp his whole life, what are some must have-things I could only do on an android? Also, what color do I get it in?
Zachary Cruz
welcome to the botnet
Elijah Johnson
My xiaomi mi5 arrived today,its my first xiaomi phone,i was thinking about upgrading it to miui 8,is it worth,what about stability?
Michael Howard
>glass is fragile It's much less fragile than you think it is, a screen protector isn't going to do shit when you slam your phone with a hammer because you're a fucking retard.
That said, the mirror finish is ridiculous and someone should be fired for this. I hope you get a matte screen protector for that thing, that's the only way you'll remedy that shitty finish.
Jason Cook
there really isnt anything you can do on android that you cant do in a jailbroken iphone or viceversa. its been literally the same shit for the past 2 years.
Aaron Taylor
i like the mirror finish desu senpai
Owen Hernandez
You're a faggot.
Leo Watson
I'll be buying one soon too. How do you like it?
Dylan Gonzalez
>get mirror finish, cover it with plastic protector that takes away the mirror finish
apple should polish their macbooks to cuck some more cash out of people this way
Nolan Allen
i dunno what kind of person you are to slam your phone with a hammer
but i'll let you know my almost 4 year old z1 is practically in mint condition thanks to tempered glass screen protectors which would take the impact rather than the glass on the phone those times i have been unlucky they don't even cost 5 bucks on ebay and it's a small investment to keep your pricy things in good condition
Nicholas Howard
People I talk with using my xiaomi mi3 complain about terrible sound quality. Do you think it's something I could fix by replacing microphone? I'm not very concerned about breaking the whole thing.
Dominic Bennett

Ayden Nguyen
>bought a xiaomi redmi note 3 pro 32GB ver. on honorbuy >forgot shipping insurance How fucked am I?
Levi Wright
Ordered a ZTE Axon 7. Going to sell my GS7 Edge if I like it better. I decided against that when I was considering it a while back, but since then it's become clear to me that I wouldn't be able to upgrade my device at any point in 2017, so I wanted something with more third party dev support, and an unlockable bootloader. Plus, audio is pretty important for me and the DAC + front facing speakers is a big deal for me.
I'm really hoping I can FINALLY be completely satisfied with a device.
Colton Ramirez
So I try to install Xposed via TWRP on my Note 4, but I can't see the Zip file installers.
My phone is encrypted.
Do I need to decrypt it first or is there any way to enter the password via recovery?
Nolan Ramirez
Hey I got a Nexus 5x recently.
Should I bother ROMing it? Is there any tangible benefit? Or is it just for ricing?
Luke Powell
I appreciate the encouragement. It seems like a stupidly good deal, especially considering how pricy the X Performance is with little difference in specs.
I see I can officially unlock the bootloader, too. That's pretty cool. I've never owned an Android phone so maybe after using it for a bit I could need around with custom roms, or at least install Greenify.
Kayden Evans
t mobile is getting rid of all its plans, will only sell an unlimited everything plan

Wyatt Stewart
>t mobile is getting rid of all its plans, will only sell an unlimited everything plan
unlimited high speed internet ?
i doubt that
Juan Green
Stick with stock but I would root and install Xposed along with a custom kernel like elemental x or Franco
Tyler Perez
not if it costs 200 bucks a month!
Andrew Barnes
Well its hard to say,it has been my first day overall quite hapy,phone feels premium,runs smoothly and camera has good quality. Quite happy,i can provide photos later on if you are interested

Luke Fisher
can someone give me a rundown on touchwiz and why it's bad?
I've got about $550 to spend and i'm thinking about the S7
Chase Watson
Large screen.
I assume its a play on hand size?
Brayden Clark
touchwiz is good and smooth on s7/s7 edge.
Gabriel Gomez
Z3 is fucking great, personally recommend it. Only problem is the flaps covering the charging port can wear off and it has fuckall internal storage
Oliver Harris
Heh.
Okay cool, thanks!
Jaxon Collins
Buy a magnetic charger on ebay for like 10 bucks and you won't have to wear out the port covers
Joshua Smith
Despite its relative age, is the Nexus 6P still such a strong phone? I feel like even a year is a long time next to things coming out in the UK soon like the V20 or whatever new Nexus phones we get
Henry Bennett
Is OnePlus X a good phone?
Robert Hernandez
My girlfriend just replaced her Lumia 620 with a 950 and it's pretty sweet. Price has dropped loads, specs are like a last year flagship and I think its pretty cool.
Kayden Hernandez
I have had an HTC One M7 for three years. No case, no screen protector and I've dropped it loads of times. It's covered in scratches because it's aluminum but the scratches always end at the screen. The screen's flawless despite the abuse. That shit's like Gorilla Glass 1 or some shit and it's fine, I'm sure GG4 will be even better.
Henry Mitchell
My smartphone gave up the ghost, and I am thinking about making a smartphone-wifi, dumphone-data/calls combo for the weekdays and smartphone with data for the weekends.
Everyone upgrades their phones constantly, so I'm reluctant to buying a new one and a bit wary from Chinese stuff.
User data: >Country Spain >Carrier Amena (Orange's network) >wanted features 1. Being able to install these apps: whatsapp, a chess app, the nytimes and the Guardian, a text editor, a pdf reader (Moonreader). 2. A camera that allows me to take pics of documents. 3.Being able to fit it in some retardedly resistant case, like the otterbox defender, as I want it to last for years to come and I'll eventually drop it. 4. Being able to root it and access to some proper custom ROM.
That's it.
>budget Below 100 EUR, if possible.
>size Not an issue.
Please, enlighten me. Or give me a starting point.

My Dad always had a shitty phone. Those given for free with his carrier. Want to give him something better.
User data: >Country Spain >Carrier Movistar >wanted features
Nice screen, simple to use (his phone is still running on Froyo), whatsapp and calls
I have developed a few VR Apps so I would love to show them to him in his own phone
>budget
Up to 300 euros
I was thinking about the moto G4, is that an acceptable choice?
Thanks a lot!!
Elijah Collins
Is LeEco a good company to buy from? I know they're China's biggest TV provider etc but how are their phones?
Hunter Foster
Good choice senpai, make sure that it's not too big for him.
John Morris
Thank you! Could you add more to that list? The more I get in the comparison process the better.
Andrew Howard
well...you could rice your homescreen and participate in the circlejerk. iOS and Android can pretty much do the same thing once rooted or jailbroken
Brody Cooper
I would just go to a store and see which phones have 2 GB of RAM and good ROM support that fits your budget. >Apteligent also measured crash rates and found Sony to boast the lowest app crashes on its phones. Sony smartphones experienced average crash rate of 0.08%, followed by Motorola with 0.09%. Out of the companies analyzed, ZTE is last with 0.28%. gsmarena.com/apteligent_motorola_is_fastest_to_roll_out_marshmallow_in_the_us_sony_phones_most_stable-news-20027.php

Helio x10 or Snapdragon 810?
Nicholas Parker
How's the Xiaomi Redmi 2 Pro? Does it still holds up to today´s standards? And before you suggest the Redmi 3 or the Note, I can't afford either.
Daniel Hughes
which to get sony xperia m5, sony xperia z3 or sony xperia z3+/z4 (z3+ and z4 is the same phone)
Nolan Morgan
do phones still need screen protectors?
John Martinez
I've literally never had a smartphone before.
I want one that can: Use Steam's Mobile Chat, and Use an IRC Client of some sort. Playing Music is optional (I use an Ipod Shuffle)
Outside of that, my other main requirement is for it to be as cheap as humanly possible. I get nervous and fidgety when i'm not able to keep up with online stuff that way, but I want to be able to hang out at places other than my house more often, and lugging my laptop around is a pain, especially since I worry it or it's accesory parts will break, so a simple phone with those capabilities would be best.
Could I get a suggestion based on those requirements?
