Told you that you fags couldn't do it.

Meh, the lack of a micro sd slot and removable battery bothers me too much. V20 is the only phone worth getting in 2017.

>people will accept the Chinese botnet just because it's cheap

Not available where I live.
Lg battery life is gay, camera is aweslme though.

Actually, battery life is better than a oneplus 3 and 3t.

There's also an extended 10,000 mAh battery from zerolemon if you're man enough.

name something you do regularly with this phone that you can't do with a 200$ phone.

HTC 10 is my aim.

Sadly the screen isn't great - but that's reasonable for the price.

>where muhh muhfuggin msdxc slot at?

How can I? you didn't post a price or even what phone it is. Just looks like another generic glass slate to me.

Use it for more than a year
>$200
>phone
Pick one

I just switched from a phone I spent $160 on a year and a hlaf ago. The phone (BlackBerry Q10) was released in 2013 and I'd still be using it, I just wanted to try the Passport. I'll now be using the Passport (which was $210) for years to come.

samsung ace ii x, the only Sup Forums approved non-chink phone.

Axon 7 bitches! God I love that phone!!!

Xiaomemes probably

There's no excuse for your flagship to drop SD support when every other model DID have it. That's unacceptable imo, and considering the oneplus philosophies of past phones, I'm really disappointed.

Thankfully, LG replaced my G4 with a new G4 and allegedly past a certain mobo number, no bootloops. So hopes are high

Hmmm well it does have a micro sd slot so I would get it over a oneplus just for that.

Plus a nicer screen, daydream support, bigger battery, way better speakers, better dac, better fingerprint position (imo), and a longer official update support. Though op3 basically replaced the nexus line for custom roms etc. Anyways, you just get more for the money.

Also I forgot to mention: better sound recording and 20mp camera over 12mp

Higher number doesn't inherently mean better. I'll take a good 5MP camera over a shitty 20MP one any day.

>V20
>800bucks
no thanks

>buying cheater-phones
LOL

Haha total forgot about this one!
For context: google.at/amp/s/androidcommunity.com/oneplus-caught-benchmark-cheating-with-the-oneplus-3t-20170202/amp/

Basically the vw of mobile-phones

Nah, VW never cheated on anything that matters, just emissions. Meanwhile the phone actually performs worse than you'd expect because of the cheating done.

I think it's fair to say the axon 7 won this thread

bullshit. the difference isn't in the build quality but in processor, storage, screen res, cameras, finger print scanner and shit like that and the truth is that it barely makes any difference at all.
for almost all of your daily smartphone usage a cheap midrange phone will do just as good as a high end one.

>Name a better phone in the same price range

iPhone

64GB at the same price $449 offering better performance than any Android phone can.

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Gtfo ishill

ex-iphone se user here: the se lags significantly compared to my 3T and constantly reloads web pages and apps (very annoying).

Let's run down the list

Android phones let you:
>have real encryption with no backdoors
>download over 100MB over mobile data
>install a third party app launcher and icons
>use it as a flash drive
>share any kind of file over wifi/bluetooth
>torrent via torrent clients in the playstore
>install apps outside the playstore
>modify a few system settings to increase performance and decrease battery drain
>manually control complex camera functions via third party apps
>natively browse files
>view better colors via amoled displays
>browse Sup Forums and natively open webms inside them via third party apps
>extract/browse archives
>add additional phone storage via a micro SD card
>replace the stock battery with a bigger one
>add widgets to your home screen
>access important functions by swiping down

ALL WITHOUT HAVING TO HACK YOUR PHONE

You can spout all the "lagdroid XDddd---" memes you want but Android phones truly are more advanced than itoddler phones and the reason why they hold over 90% of the global smartphone market share right now.

literally who cares? Its a great phone, it works well, has a great camera and has a plethora of accessories available for it and will continue to receive updates for a few years.

All those "cons" you mentioned mean nothing to someone who has a computer, between google back door or apple back door, I trust apple better.

>the reason why they hold over 90% of the global smartphone market share right now.

the reason for that is because they cost nearly nothing and the amount of obsolete shit out there with jelly bean or older OS is allowed by google.

If a phone doesn't have
>Removable Battery
>Micro SD card slot
>Repairable design aka can buy another phone and replace bits for a longer use of the phone. (not a must but it is nice)

then i am not buying.

>iPhone 5 size screen with 6 parts

Who would ever want this? All iPhones are junk. I don't get why people buy them either, Android is better in every way.

if you werent so autistic youd see that different people want and like different things.

android and iphones are nearly the same in every way neither is better than the other as long as you can get what you need done.

Repeat that several more times and might become true.


Not.

iPhones are for people who want to be told what to like, Androids are for people who want to be different. Fuck you iPhone shills, go be locked into how your phone looks and operates you cucks.

>Google back door
>open-source

ok mate

>Androids are for people who want to be different
are you on drugs?

iphones are for people who want an iphone and android are for people who want android. the things you own dont make who you are user. get off your autism.

From my experience, iPhones are for people who don't want to bother with the os. It just works.

Pretty much this, I have had countless android phones, countless windows phones and a couple of iphones. Always was able to be more productive with both the WP and IOS because I didn't have to fuck around with the OS nor the bloatware it comes with. But WP has no apps that work for anything so IOS will be for me.

Yea well that's stupid, If you don't want to customise everything to the way you like it hen you're a boring human.

No. iPhones are for retards who don't know better, Yet people keep buying them, "accidently" drop them in 6-12 months and get the latest one because they use it as a social status.

...

Whats a good budget phone for someone just looking to have portable google/texts/calls/music?

My older cheap phone has kicked the can finally

Pretty much me, I don't care.

S5 or J7, OnePlus 3 is decent too.

Whatever the latest Redmeme is, usually between $130 and $180 if you want to go android.

>Pretty much me, I don't care.
Yeah you do.

Twas groundhog day yesterday user, are you going to continue to be stuck in life and in time like Phil Connors? Or are you going to do something about it?

youtube.com/watch?v=4m0XvJWiGww

Ok dude.

Thanks, I'll look into those.

I'll check out those fuckers too for suggestions, though I'd probably be spending a little more than that

crippling bugs and chinky support

no

problem is, you basically getting that even from google

Samsung galaxy j7 prime

But it does have one, the second sim slot...

If *any* phone seems so expensive to you that the price tag influences your buying decision, than you're poor.

>have real encryption with no backdoors
In a fucking Google OS? Are you kidding me!?
>download over 100MB over mobile data
Are you implying that you can't do that with iOS?
>install a third party app launcher and icons
Why would I ever do that?
>use it as a flash drive
Ditto.
>share any kind of file over wifi/bluetooth
Ditto.
>torrent via torrent clients in the playstore
Ditto. Also, wtf? Torrenting? On a freakin' phone? WHY?
>install apps outside the playstore
To do what exactly?
>modify a few system settings to increase performance and decrease battery drain
If you have to charge your phone more than once every 2 to 3 days, the problem is you.
>manually control complex camera functions via third party apps
The VAST majority of people have absolutely no use for that.
>natively browse files
Why?!?
>view better colors via amoled displays
What?
>browse Sup Forums and natively open webms inside them via third party apps
VLC opens webms in iOS
>extract/browse archives
Why?
>add additional phone storage via a micro SD card
Aren't SD cards very slow compared to the build-in storage? Also, just buy a phone that comes with enough storage out of the box/cloud.
>replace the stock battery with a bigger one
Fair enough, but there's always a compromise when you can remove the battery.
>add widgets to your home screen
Why?
>access important functions by swiping down
You can access anything you need just fine in iOS.

Every time someone argues for Android over iOS it's a big list of shit practically nobody does or doesn't want to do with their phone.

>more advanced than itoddler phones and the reason why they hold over 90% of the global smartphone market share
The reason is very obviously because Android phone are dirt cheap and you know it.

Damn, even as an iP6s+ user, I can't justify some things you said, I just bought this phone for good stability and camera(s) which obviously my previous android didn't have.

Like what? My whole point is that iPhones aren't worse or for stupid people, they're just designed for a very different demographic than the typical Sup Forums user and frankly, I've had it with the constant insults and displays of felt superiority for reasons that are nothing more than very specialized use-cases that mean nothing to most people.

Being able to download some remixes off of the youtube and being able to torrent my anime while I was travelling was bretty good for once. Although I have the 128gb model, I carry my entire music and anime library with me.

Fair enough. And just to be clear: there's obviously use-cases where Android is the better choice and that's okay - but it doesn't make iOS any worse, especially when it's stuff that doesn't affect the overwhelming majority of people. I have my MacBook with me when I'm traveling and I wouldn't even *want* to watch anime (or anything really) on a phone to be honest. And let's be real here: torrenting on a phone is as niche as it gets as far as market share is concerned so it's a laughably bad argument in any serious real-world discussion.

why the fuck can't I use this shit on Verizon?

why does verizon suck so much ass

CDMA networks are a meme

user I think making a perfect phone is impossible because some "features" are actually downgrades for other people. That said iPhone is far from being a perfect phone. Android gets closer at its best but of course, because of the fractured android base, there is no perfect android phone either. You make the phone "good and usable" by having tastes. To be honest, I absolutely regret getting the iphone and I would sell it and get op3 in a heartbeat if they were selling it in my shitty 3rd world country for the reasons I stated in my previous post.

Android is open source and no backdoors have been found to date. Go ahead and find one love.

You literally can't. Go download an app over 100MB, ios won't let you.

To spend a minute or less customizing, it's fun and interesting.

>

yes we now have android phones with msd slots that accept 256GB cards and lte that lets you download at 50+ mbps. Crazy, I know.

install apps otherwise banned on standard app stores. Clover and newpipe for example. Both have no ads, malware, and are open source btw

getting extra battery life than normal can help extend the time you have to recharge your phone. This isn't a bad thing.

True but phone cameras are dogshit, fine tuning is a good feature to have to make phone photos look as good as possible.

so you can delete, move, copy, cut, compress to 7zip archives, ect things in a quick and organized fashion

amoled displays render the most accurate colors possible. Take the simple color black for example, IPS displays show it as a gray-bluish while amoled displays show it as 100% black.

This is very laborious and time consuming, you literally have to do this for every fucking webm you encounter

save space, organize files, and so many more uses

95MB/s UHS-I msd cards exist and phones made to accept 200MB/s UHS-II msd cards (backwards compatible with UHS-I msd slots) are coming very soon.

like what?

Very quick access to useful functions

lolno you can't, you have to swipe up to an extremely limited menu of quick access functions

loans/credit cards/ contracts/ leases exist irl, which most iphone users use to get their iphones with.

Most of us on Sup Forums are power users and require most of that stuff

He's probably a r3ddit user that jumped ship after all the noise about touchgate and somehow ended up here

>tfw the more proof people show him how shit iphones get the saltier he becomez

nexus 5x
>muh copperheados

>require

Kek. When did cell phones become toys? A computer can do anything much better than an Android phone with 6GB RAM that can't keep more than 2 apps open at once.

Leeco le Max 2. Perfect phone

>literally r3ddit the phone

>micro sd card
>2017

user...

This is by far the most retarded post I have ever seen in my life.

What do you use then? micro sd card slot is useful imo.

>power user

muh ricing muh anime

Please tell me what other technology allows me to watch hours of 4K high quality porn without draining my battery.

Not really. File browsers, torrent clients, youtube downloaders, micro sd cards, dedicated Sup Forums browsing apps, amoled displays have little or nothing to do with ricing or anime.

you may want to rethink what you are doing with your life user.

Is there another expandable storage medium that's superseded the microSD card?

So I should live a simple yet very complicated life like you user?

I don't know, I kinda like the lifestyle I already have. Not sure if I really want to become a toddler like you again.

Interestingly it's uhs-ii micro sd cards... which are backwards compatible with current uhs-i slots.

However they're expensive as balls and few if any have uhs-ii micro sd slots. I'm sure the galaxy S8 will.

pic related has a 250MB/s write speed and a read speed faster than that.

They're still microSD cards though. I know he was talking about being retarded and accessing everything remotely.

Iwish I had my G4 still :(

Using the LG V10. Got it for $300 brand new. T-Mobile was doing their hardest to move old stock and old phones, so they lowered the price to $350. Guys at the store lowered it further still when I said I'd buy a phone case with it in store and pay in full in cash.

This phone is awesome

No, you should live your life the way you want to live. However your priorities are a little on the fucked up side. You need to use a torrent client on your phone? Seriously? Are you torrenting on cellular network? If you say wifi then why the fuck are you using a cell phone for that job?

Youtube downloaders? File browsers? Dedicated Sup Forums apps? Perhaps you need a little less Sup Forums in your life.

Those are not normal needs, those are the needs and behaviors of an addict. The reason why majority of people truly don't care what platform their phone is on is because they have a life and a job that keeps them to busy to care.

>The reason why majority of people truly don't care what platform their phone is on is because they have a life and a job that keeps them to busy to care.
Then why is android at 90% market share? If what you said was true then it would be like 50%.

>inb4 "le only le rich le buy le iPhones XDddd---"
loans, credit cards, contracts, and leases exist even for someone earning minimum wage.

>Then why is android at 90% market share? If what you said was true then it would be like 50%.

Because cheapest iphone you can buy is $350 or $150 if you go for the 5S.

And you can buy Android phones for $30

Car analogy here is a great example...

Why don't you drive an electric car user? If electric cars were so good they would have 90% of the market as opposed to internal combustion engines but they don't

>inb4 "le only le rich le buy le tesla XDddd---"
loans, credit cards, contracts, and leases exist even for someone earning minimum wage.

sorry I like touchscreens without lag

I have a Android that I cant take the back off of but i can still put micro sd cards in it via my sim tray

My Honor 8, better camera and battery. Plus the Kirin 950 is speedy.

Lol if you have slow speeds becuase of a sd card then stop buying shitty cheap sd cards lol

loans, credit cards, contracts, and leases exist even for someone earning minimum wage.

This, I almost always get ~90MB/s writing stuff to my samsung card.

>getting LG
>ever

I work for T-Mobile and I have seen SO many LG 4's, 5's, V10's and V20's come in with bootloop issues. I'll never ever recommend an LG phone to anybody.

LG's last four fucking flagships have had bootloop issues and the G6 will likely be the same. They don't care.

can't you not root cause of shitty rom support on phones that don't run a qualcomm cpu?

What phone?

The galaxy s7 edge explosives phone

whats a good phone for around $300?

i have an old ass note 2 that im very satisfied and content with functionality wise but its dying on me.

i only browse internet, listen to music, and watch videos mostly.

BlackBerry Passport. Buy yourself something nice with the extra hundred

Never settle

Have you never been in hospital?
It's useful to be able to rely entirely on one device.

The most retarded post I've seen this year by far. And I also own an iPhone.
