It has an adapter for people who "need" to use depreciated technology
Luke Turner
Damn, where did you learn to meme like that?
Josiah Perry
because phones are 80% fashion you little ball of autism
Henry Cook
Because they don't support USA LTE bands except for the one plus 3. I also feel that if these companies were to target the US market they would get sued for not paying royalties. They're dodging about $50/device in royalties.
I really want a chinkphone that has usa lte bands, I don't care if it's using mediatek processors just give me one.

They do in raw value.
320 aud for this, or 1300 aud for a samsung note 7
Colton Nelson
Because their "flagships" have shit-tier cameras.

Jeremiah Murphy
Is this an America thing? Because I've never seen phones being used for payment processing. >card swiping Yep, definitely American.
Luke Carter
>using the plastic jew
Charles Wilson
> card swiping > 3.5mm jack Why are americans clinging to outdated technology so hard?
Samuel Hernandez
>Because they don't support USA LTE bands except for the one plus 3. Pretty much this. I live in Australia and I used to import Hong Kong versions of the same flagship phone at the time (BlackBerry, Samsung etc.) and you had to match up the MHz range of the bands to make sure it would work properly with your provider. Long story short, it did work, except the lowest (think: 2G) was different in Hong Kong than Australia, which meant sometimes you'd lose network coverage in areas that were still only covered by the weaker signal ranges, rather than having maybe one bar if you had the exact same Australian model phone.
Samuel Moore
There was some idiot on here trying to argue swiping was better than chip and pin the other weak. They won't listen, don't bother
Wew, I take it back. This model has a great camera, still most of these "flagships" still don't though.
I would definitely buy a chink phone if the camera was a good as this on is.
The overall external design and aesthetics of the phone is ugly though and is trying too hard to copy the iphone.
Isaac Moore
I love you, OP.
Camden Green
>The overall external design and aesthetics of the phone is ugly though and is trying too hard to copy the iphone.
That is an issue, but personally I care more about what's in the phone and the price than overall aesthetics, unless it's something stupid ugly with massive bezels
Andrew Morales
Camera is okay (screenshot because file too big)
Henry Bell
How's battery life and camera? Would you recommend this phone?
Isaac Lee
taking pictures of hippy guys stretching is kinda gay
Juan Sanchez
Not anymore. Back in the day when it was 2G and 3G was patchy, it was, as some Aus carriers (Telstra from memory) used 700MHz 2G and pretty much all Hong Kong providers used 900MHz 2G. So you had to be careful your phone came with 700 support (a lot did but some didn't since no carrier uses it in HK).

Isn't that French?
Brody Howard
Battery life: Last me the whole day (with bluetooth for music and watch), and 6h+ SoT
Camera: Does what I need
Recommend: Yes
Didn't want to move, and the other options had chicks looking this way
Jaxon Jenkins
no that's str8 up chinaman brand
Kayden Taylor
Fuck yeah I'm sold.
All I use my phone for is shitposting, web browsing, and calls, so the SD820 is way overkill, but I do want a decent camera.
Samuel Fisher
It costed me 850 Brazilian reals, so it must be really cheap of you're on a decent country.
Gabriel Bell
...
Elijah Edwards
And decent battery life.
Was considering the k6000 pro purely for battery life, but I have mixed feelings about that camera.
Manufacturer claims it has EIS, but it wasn't advertised...
It'll be ~350AUD
Still have to think about it though because the k6000 pro is currently half that price
Nolan Howard
I'm still waiting for a decent outlet to start selling zenfone 3 dlx.
Matthew Cox
Actually this phone and probably future LeTV phones support all major GSM US LTE bands, even bands 12 and 17, because they're planning on releasing their phones in the US soon.
Tyler Johnson
Ultimate flagship killer confirmed
Andrew Scott
The ROM in my about screenshot is based on the US version (and made by a Italian, what a crazy world)
Elijah Clark
Memes aside, it's shit simply because it has no headphone jack.
If they had TWO usb type c ports that would be great, but I'm not using a adapter to charge and play music at the same time.
Landon Wilson
>not having a separate music player
Parker Brown
Why don't you just use Bluetooth like a regular human being?
Joshua Brooks
>Normal human
Let's be honest, we all know most people use whatever shitty wired earbuds come with their phone
>Why don't I use bluetooth?
Because I don't want to charge my fucking earbuds, the wire isn't annoying.
Henry Butler
If you want to be stingy about wireless, just use the included adapter, jeez...
Juan Hall
Sorry if I sounded triggered/aggressive in my post, didn't mean too.
I want to charge and play music at the same time, wouldn't mind if it had 2 usb ports and a adapter but if it doesn't it's going in to the trash.
It's not a cost issues, it's just I don't want something else to charge (and eventually die when the battery stops holding a charge)
Samuel Scott
Fair enough.
Personally am too paranoid to charge my phone and listen to music with wired earphones at the same time though.
Nathan Parker
We will come to a time when 99.9998% of 4channers would bash 3.5MM jack people 'cuz that's the norm.
Samuel Williams
the only chink phones worth buying are their flagship models, which aren't priced that far under other flagships.
Liam Howard
How much is a similar specced phone from lg or samsung?
Lucas Rogers
I've got a Sony in-ear that has the option to remove the phones, and plug whatever I want, it's cheap and give the option to make every fuckin 3.5mm bluetooth, you guys really like to cry (and at the same time, i have an iPod classic in my pocket)

Nolan Parker
How pathetically weak are you?
Aaron Morales
How durable is it? (Does it snap in half easily, how scratch resistant are the screen and the chassis?
What LTE frequencies does it support? (It should support all North American and European frequencies.)
Where can I send it for repair if it breaks?
Will Le Eco continue pushing security updates for next 3 years or at least unlock bootloader so that some third party ROM can be installed?
Henry Hernandez
Well they've updated all lollipop devices to marshmallow, but as far as I can tell, only nexus devices and iPhones get more than a year or so of support.
Third party roms are available to install, you could compile your own cm too if you're not an idiot.
It's a chinkphone, so you'll have to send it back to the seller for warranty.
Very good build quality, won't scratch or bend easily. Full metal chassis.

Friend has it Fucking beast it is, runs everything we throw at it, PSP games, AAA Android games, everything. The fingerprint sensor is amazingly quick, so my friend literally just picks up his phone with his finger on the back and it unlocks. Even the stock UI is pretty good, unlike 99% of those other chink manufacturers. The camera is really high tier too, i was surprised since these chinkphones usually have dogshit cameras. The only downside is lack of 3.5mm jack and instead of micro USB, it has that USB C. It's not a bad thing honestly, but USB C has yet to penetrate further into the consumer market until we can say "hey man I need to charge my phone" up to anyone and they have a type C charger
Carson Cooper
I'm legitimately considering getting one.
Will it be updated to android N?
Aiden Phillips
MicroUSB is dogshit, I want to see more things with USBC- and when was the last time you had to bum a charge from someone anyway?
I would totally get a chink phone but almost none work with sprint, and im not giving up my data plan even though its the worst US carrier.
Jaxson Hill

Jason Clark
>No headphone jack >No MicroSD slot It was so close to perfection too.
Sebastian Martinez
This.
Dylan Fisher
I could live with no headphones, but no expandable storage and that price hike for 64GB just puts me off.
Which country and carrier?
Luis Martinez
Dude
Brayden Cook
Other than no headphone jack and no expandable storage, does it have any other major flaws?
I can surprisingly live with those 2 and it seems insane value at that price.
Will it get android n?
Angel Morales
Look for the ones based on the US like Neoix
Hudson Myers
I just don't trust these companies to put in effort into designing their phones. Specs are not everything. Also I like to own an original product and not something with a cheap knockoff design.
Parker Gray
