Is the P9 dual camera a meme? Anybody who used it?

Would installing a small 3x1 inch solar panel on a smartphone significantly improve battery life?
Lucas Robinson
I know a lot of you don't use cases, but what about screen protectors?
Owen Allen
Does samshit still make s4/5 mini sized phones with decent specs?

I've had a Samsung Galaxy Rugby Pro for the past 2 years and it's been a great phone to me. The software wasn't the best, but the hardware was super tough. Kinda like a kid with down syndrome. It's survived smacks against nearly everything... that is, except for today when my friend smacked his keychain (with this weird weighted bar on it) about 4 times. It cracked not the protective screen but the LCD screen under it. The phone itself works, but the screen is permanently black. Anyone know of something similar to it in toughness, but maybe with a better OS?
Hudson Howard
How's the Xiaomi Pro? Currently looking at the 128GB variant to replace a Galaxy Nexus
Leo Flores
no, the samsung that had solar was pretty much just a gimmicky meme. Might as well put a tiny lithium cell in the space where a headphone jack would be.
I have a screen protector on my current phone, but the scratches on my previous phone didn't bother me at all. I guess I'm doing it because I still sorta care about my 2 month old phone and it will preserve the oleophobic meme.
John Scott
For the poorfags out there I recommend Boost Mobile + Samsung J3. Pretty damn sweet phone for the price and Boost actually offers proper unlimited data. I`ve gone over 250 gigs before in a month, but I average about 100 usually. 50/mo. And with some tweaking you can get unlimited hotspot. Can`t think of a better no-contract deal.
Hudson Ramirez
is there a flowchart? i dont want to get a chinkphone

>take a hard fall while biking >galaxy s5 LCD broken >need a fast replacement because expecting calls within next few days >amazon has only used models and vastly overpriced new ones
Is the Note 4 worth getting? Far as I've seen, it's about $100 cheaper than an s5 and it looks to be more powerful, plus I don't really mind TouchJizz. Plus it seems to be one of the few mainstream phones around $300 that actually has an mSD slot.

Talk me out of an G3
Robert Cruz
Should I wait for Moto X Pure to drop from $280 to $250? Or should I just get Moto G4 for $200?
Ethan Fisher
LG phones will bootloop.
Luis Clark
If you can stand the horrible UI and no 3.5mm, sure.
Ryan James
just wait another month and the G5 will probably be selling for $200 new lmao
Anthony Wright
G4+.
Andrew Jackson
I honestly don't know what is the point of Sony anymore these days. They are more expensive than Samshit phones but have worse features, screen and camera.
Noah Butler
>using an S7 Edge but still don't have Nougat >Nougat beta released but it's only for the UK
Asher Taylor
Not worth the extra money from a Moto G4 normal version.
Angel Rogers
Bought a bootlooped G4 a few days ago for $30, went to LG's website, registered it for the warranty because I know the original owner never did, waited 2 days, started a chat with LG's online support staff, bing bang boom, shipped it back to 'em at their cost and they'll be shipping me a replacement (not a repaired one) supposedly made in September of 2016 so it should not have the bootloop issue any longer.
If it does, fuck it, I'll send it back again, then again if needed and at some point they'll either say "Ok, fine, here have a G5/V10/V20 for your troubles..."
1) Buy shit cheap 2) ?!?!?!?! 3) PROFIT!!!
Jeremiah Sullivan
No because it could never provide enough juice to really do anything. If it was plugged in with direct sunlight to power the panel the device (in use) would still pull more power from the battery in the device so it would be like sweeping a dirt floor aka a complete waste of time.
If you can't get a large solar panel capable of putting out at least 1 watt of power constantly in direct sunlight (meaning it'll need to be about 15" x 15" minimum) then don't bother.
Anthony Bell
Note 4 is a damned good device, even now years after it was introduced. A shitload of community support for it, if you can get one for $120-160 get it, anything more than that is a bit pricey but it's up to you.
Levi Young
Smart. I'd resell new phone and repeat until I can get enough for a good (non-LG) phone.
Christopher Cook
Yeah but, I like LG phones pre-G5 so, while I don't want a G5 or a V20 I wouldn't mind getting a V10 since it maintains the back button controls that I find to be vastly superior in terms of operating the device.
So I'll either try and sell the replacement G4 and get a V10 or see what happens with the G4 I suppose.
Picked up a Nexus 4 in basically mint condition for $20 the other day, still don't understand why people like it so much, it's a fucking boring device. Got a OnePlus One for $60 with a bad camera, replaced that with one I ordered off eBay for $10 + free shipping and it's a fantastic piece of hardware so far.
Good deals are out there if you're paying attention.
Ethan Martinez
I specified the G3. Did your G3 bootloop?
Charles Perry
anyone have the op3 on t mobile?

Can anyone recommend a good phone for $400 or under? I need a cheaper normie phone Carrier is AT&T thank you thank you

What is the best mobile phone for security and privacy? Some old Nokia? (nothing is perfect of course... Just wondering on the best out of the box)
Sebastian Hernandez
So should I get the Xiaomi Mi 5 which can be had pretty cheap over here, or be an autist and buy a V20 off my contract?
Adam Bell

John Parker
Hey /spg/, is there any better, non-chink smartphone than the 2014 moto x for $150? I had one, now I don't, thinking of getting another, but want to know if there's something better for the same price.
>Country USA >Carrier AT&T >Features Comfy, good screen, clean software, new/factory referb, loud earpiece, good warranties, carrier unlocked, (maybe) good camera >Budget $150 or less (not willing to go over unless REALLY enticed) >Size 5.2" or less
Using my old note 2 for right now and I forgot how quiet the earpiece is. That, the screen is wearing and washing out after 4 years, and I'm not a fan of 5.5" or bigger phones.
Ethan Barnes
Does anyone have a BlackBerry Passport? If so what do you think of it? What more or less would you want from it?
Colton Diaz
Solve me this dillema please: Samsung Galaxy S6 or Nexus 6P? It seems like S6 has a better screen, but 6P is bigger and better design.
Michael Hughes
Screen size. Note 7 isn't supposed to be there anymore btw.
Jayden Walker

Jackson Morales
Oneplus 3 or ZTE Axon 7?
Josiah Davis
>Redmi 4 Pro/Prime SoC is close to the 650 performance wise, made on 14nm FinFET (instead of shit outdated 28nm like the 650 or 617) and it probably doesn't overheat like the 617 >It also has a full HD screen (not an improvement though) and a better camera than the RN3P and thus better than the R3 But it's also a lot more expensive than the Redmi 3 Pro: the 4 prime sells for around 180€ when the 3 Pro sells around 125€
I know the 625 is better than 616, but is it really worth 55€ more? I don't mind the lower resolution and the 1080p on the 4 Prime will be more resource intensive than the 720p on the 3 Pro. The phones also have the same amount of RAM and storage...
Zachary Collins
I switched from a nexus 4 to an OP3 yesterday and I really liked it but it is a little bit on the big side although I'm almost used to it now
Jeremiah Johnson
Is there a noticeable power difference between any of the phones in the ~400$ range?
Also is taking the Axon 7 giving up anything for that mSD slot that might make me prefer the Nexus 6P/Oneplus 3 instead?
Daniel Jenkins
I haven't used the ZTE but I love my OP3 if you want a fast responsive phone with close to stock experience go for it
Jose Walker
What is the most durable high-end phone currently released? I'm a fucking retard so I tend to drop my phone a lot.
Zachary Cooper
Nexus 6P is slightly outdated, the other 3 are GOAT
Axon 7 has a slightly worse camera, a heavier UI and less custom ROM support than the OneGOAT 3.
Angel Wright
Hmm. After further investigation into the 1+3, it turns out that it's not great in Australia, fuck, I was almost sold on it too..
Jordan Allen
Just get an SE. I got meme'd into buying a non nexus/iphone phone last year and I regret it. >battery utter shit >lags like a bitch (waow 500 million gb ram 1 billion core processor) >camera is ass >updates take forever

Charles Nelson
I have a Cubot Dinosaur (yeah chink phone) and everything goes decently considering its pricetag but it has a major issue that I can't find a fix for and I've been searching for several days. Apps that don't come by default in the phone and that I've installed like Whatsapp, Last.fm, Nova Launcher, etc, get killed after having the phone locked for a few minutes, sometimes it doesn't happen over a night, sometimes it happens right after locking it. Any method or fix that can keep my apps awake? I'm not going to root the device. And yes, I tried looking at security, battery, ram usage and all that shit. It appears to be a problem of the phone and it will never get fixed by its company.
Andrew Davis
is this flowchart even updated? if yes is the moto g4 a good choice?
Anthony Myers
Picked up and rooted a Pixel XL the other day. So far it's a fantastic phone. Figured the fingerthing on the back to be a gimmick but I use it quite a bit with the swipe bit.
Due to the new partition layout quite a few root apps do not work. The needed ones work fine though.
Kayden Lewis
any german sites where i can buy good chinkphones?
Jaxon Carter
iPhone SE is pretty much perfect phone, HOWEVER it is too small. I am iPhone 5s owner and want to upgrade to something bigger.
--> but bigger and newer iPhones are too expensive, so I'm gonna opt for Nexus 6P or Galaxy S6. it's too fucking small bros.
Brandon Jackson

Caleb Hughes

Not smartphone related but what's the best smallish tablet to go for? I'd consider an iPad mini but I don't want to have an apple device since I have only Linux on my desktop and laptop.
Wyatt Clark
Nokia n1 or something similar?
Lucas Ward
Yeah, something along this. I don't need a phone number so I'm looking for a tablet I'll use with a mobile WiFi router.
Luke Ross
what the fuck is wrong with your finger
Tyler Jackson
I don't know, what's wrong with it? Also I'm just trying to do tests on this phone since I'm not using it anymore >2 days stand by, wifi off, only 20% battery gone That's actually fine >turn on wifi Well you can see the nose dive. Gonna restore and delete everything, see if it makes any difference.

ZTE Axon 7? OP3? Redmeme 4?
Nathan Adams
Well now I hate this piece of shit even more >restore to factory settings >lower half of the screen does not respond to anything (can tell because if I keep tapping the upper half of the screen it won't go to sleep, if I just tapped the lower half it will eventually turn the screen off) >can't proceed with the setup and yet I was even thinking of giving it a second chance.
Lincoln Torres
forgot pic, but anyway what I'm trying to say is, go nexus/iphone - if current year flagship ones are too expensive, then get last year's. Don't buy into dumb shit.
Eli Gray
Hmmm I had bought a Honor 8 which has a 5.2screen and hate it lol, returning it today. Wheres the best place to buy the mi5?Ill have a look at those thanks!
I bought a Zuk z2 (currently waiting for it to arrive) to replace my Moto G1, that I've been using for two years now. Should I have got a RN3P instead?
Matthew Gray
No, the Zuk is good. Lenovo also have a very frequent update cycle and better support. The Specs are sufficient
Samuel Lewis
Just got the OP3. Shit's fast. Here's a pic of my old phone
Adam Foster
S4 or is that the 5? Everything after the S3 is a blur. And sweet choice, enjoy it and the shitload of dev support too.
Jeremiah Hughes

Jose Thomas
S5 running cyanogenmod 13. CM really botched the support for it though and touchjizz on the s5 is laughable. The OP3 is everything I want in a smartphone, stock Android + some good features.
Elijah Wood
Thinking of getting the Google Pixel, worth it?
Kayden Rodriguez
Yes but might as well wait a couple of days for BF/CM
Nice. It really does sound perfect for those who want the same flexibility nexus devices offered, but with much higher performance ability.

Those are too big, Is the Sony line my only option for a decent small >5 inch screen phone?

The sony compact line and the iphone SE, yes.
Anthony Murphy

Is there no way to change the godawful alphabetical app drawer in CM 13?
Is there another alternative jewgle-free OS for a Galaxy S5 mini?

GearBest claimed the phone were 30$ so no custom fees. They accept PayPal. I'm from germany btw.

Is there a smartphone with 2 usb-c or micro usb ports ?
