Currently have an iPhone 6 and sick of the lack of customization, will a Moto G5 be a performance downgrade from it? I want a removable battery so the G5 Plus isn't an option.
Angel Rogers
What can /spg/ tell me about the Zuk edge? worth it for around $250? or are there better options i need band 4
Nicholas Myers

Fuck, I know I'm picky, but it's my precious neetbux, and I won't be able to afford a new phone for another three, maybe four years, and I don't want to waste them on a half ass product that will shit itself in less than that time, or will brake because it slipped from the sofa and fell for 40cm and got the screen cracked from the impact with the carpet.
Hunter Thompson
What's your usage? Wanted features?
Lincoln Carter
Well yeah obviously a big performance downgrade. If you don't play games it's fine though. Just don't expect iphone smoothness.
Jacob Jackson
I lost my Mi5 and I'm wondering if I should get a new one or if there's something better now at the same price range. Is the Redmi a lot worse?
Dylan Foster
I want to browse Sup Forums and to play PS1 games, maybe PSP too.
Nathaniel Richardson
Lenovo P2 from Carphone warehouse. Maybe you'll manage to find OP3T for 400 quid.
Elijah Evans
Also I just want to pay and go
Wyatt Hernandez
Should I buy the Moto Z Play right now or wait for the Moto Z2 Play? I'm thinking of the former because of the battery downgrade.
Landon Collins
When will the X4 be released?
William Hill
Okay I checked my local 3 store but they didn't have it in stock, I'll try carphone warehouse. Is the Lenovo P2 good?
Joseph Ross
Is there a way for me to reset my phone to exactly the state it was when it left the factory? Including:
>all settings reset >all files deleted >all apps and files that were on day 1 on it are back
I want to do it in case I fuck anything up and uninstall some crucial apps or delete files.
Grayson Miller
Don't play any games aside from some old emulatable RPGs, a friend has a A5 2017 that sometimes stutters when playing PSP RPGs. I just want a good video player like mpv, open source apps just a fuck ton of customization. Only normalfag thing I do is Instagram so having a worse camera than the iPhone 6 kinda sucks, but not a deal breaker.
Jackson Ramirez
Yeah, it's pretty great.
OP3T is better but more expensive.
Also look into Moto G5/G5+.
Benjamin Evans
The rumour is it will be announced june 30th so in a few days. When it will actually available I don't know.
Robert Gutierrez
>Carphone Warehouse as far as I can tell they don't have it but Three has it for £200, it's not SIM locked either
Brandon Williams
Pretty good deal. This or G5/G5+ should good enough for your needs.
Nolan Anderson
Z2 Play is way too expensive for the specs it has
Wyatt Hall
Thank for the help, If I can't get the OP3T then I'll go for the P2
Thinking about going for the OP3T it's £320 on gearbest. Is gearbest trust worthy? It's the gold one.
Yeah, but it will take 3-4 weeks to arrive from China.
Evan Barnes
Factory reset from the settings, you have to tick the box to format the internal storage too
There's most likely a way way to flash the stock ROM on the phone too
Isaac Parker
>Note 4 usb port fucked up for the third time
Gonna kms, bros
Jason Martin
>flash the stock ROM on the phone too That's what I'm currently looking into. But is there a chance that it won't restore all of the apps that came with it? Because I remember uninstalling some system (is that how you call them?) apps and now I'm afraid that it's forever gone.
Jeremiah Peterson
Ideed. Is there something else (with similar specs) I should consider other than the Z Play?
Easton Cruz
Lenovo P2 or Redmi Note 4, both have SD625 and hueg battery.
Camden Gutierrez
The system apps are in the stock ROM so they will be restored when you flash it.
Remember you might have to pay VAT / custom duty when ordering from outside of the EU

Will it be a bigger blunder than the op5?
Luke Baker
Whats this boards opinions about the s8? If I can afford it should I get it?
Leo Torres
My brother just got it and it's very good. Basically a better bersion of S7 Edge.
Jordan Ward
If you can afford the S8 you can afford something better
Tyler Powell
pls respond
Brody Young
>you can afford something better and that is?
Austin Bailey

Joshua Cook
Not as big of a blunder as the OP5
Ian Reed
I had the sany z4c for 2 years now, but its broken now and I need a new phone.
For example?
Michael Miller
If it's like the XZ, then the structural build quality is abysmal. Also, it's way overpriced, and out of budget.
Samuel Reed
The Essential HTC U11
Henry Lee
HTC U11, OP5
Ayden Howard
What do you guys think about Vodafone Smart Platinum (rebranded Alcatel One Touch Idol 4S)? Is there a better alternative? Costs just 320 yuropcoins.
Zachary Clark
Essential phone. Doesn't ship outside America.
Ryder Barnes
What's your usage / wanted features? That phone does seem like a pretty good deal for ~300€ looking at the specs
Brayden Cook
Wil the s8 ever get android 7.1?
Liam Kelly
it hasn't even released yet and I already think it's just as big of a blunder as the OP5
Luis White
I mainly use phone for browsing internet (Google Chrome, clover, etc), and for whatsapp and viber. I rarely play games on phone and mostly of them are 2d. I also use camera a lot but not sure if it's good enough.
Jack Hall
I don't know personally, but I'm very sure it will get it soon since it's a new phone anyway.
It's the German Amazon but they ship to other countries too
Other phones to consider Moto G5 Plus Honor 8 Lenovo P2
Colton Campbell
I am not familiar with samsung's support for devices. I do not follow the smartphone scene to closely, but do they have a history of just dropping support for their phones?
Camden Smith
How well will the Xperia XZ line work on Verizon?
Nicholas White
>but do they have a history of just dropping support for their phones? yes, but it's a common thing for Android in general
Christian Collins
Not at all
Brayden King
I need a new phone. What do I think of the OP5?
Alexander Torres
Hmm. That sucks. Whats the latest on the pixel 2? Do we know a release date? My current phone is broken, so I am keen to buy something.
Evan Thomas
If my phone is working fine for me, there's no need to replace it until it dies, right?
Thomas Scott
Really? It has all the bands required and I already have an active Verizon SIM. It should work as long as I don't go to east bumblefuck where there is no coverage at all.
Carter Roberts
probably overpriced crap again. I wish Nokia would hurry up with their US release

Lincoln Nguyen
so, I don't play games on my phone, I don't want a fingerprint sensor, I do want something with quick response and reasonable storage, preferably pretty close to stock android. I don't care too much about the camera, I care very much about build quality, what should I get for less than 400 USD?
John Sanchez
Well the release date will be around the same time as last year, so october or something.
Nathan Barnes

Ryan Wilson
Good luck finding a phone without a fingerprint reader that isn't either ultra low budget, or old as fuck
Ethan Harris
screen popping out memes aside, how is the blackberry keyone? I think it would be nice to have a keyboard again.

Sending my OnePlus 3 in for repair and going to sell it. Is their any decent GSM budget phones that cost in-between 50-80$ that doesn't have notable Android Lag™. Last budget phone I had was a Moto E, and it had like .2ms input lag after any screen input is registered.
Christian Lopez
Not for $50-$80
Gabriel Wright
BLU R1 HD is $60 with Amazon prime
Xavier Wright
Ok. Just going to close my eyes and buy the s8. I see the international version have some rom support so I am going for that. I am also going to get the dual sim version.
Samuel Mitchell
I am currently looking to buy it a b&h in new york be cause I have someone that can pick it up for me. I am not from US, so can anyone recommend another store in new york which sells unlocked phones?
Brody Foster
You'll regret it
Levi Sanchez
I'm in the US with Verizon and I want to get a new phone. Looking for something with a decent camera and battery life, microSD slot, and preferably something I can also use in China and Europe with their carriers (which I feel is unlikely given past experiences), any suggestions? Looking for stuff on the cheaper end that meets these conditions and it looks like something from Xiaomi is probably going to be my best bet.
Parker Baker
>Xiaomi >Verizon Forget it. Moto G5 Plus is probably your best bet
Jason Jones
What won't I regret?
Ayden James
What is going on with Xiaomi because Redmi Note 64gb global model seems to be sold out almost everywhere? Did they stop manufacturing it?
get the mi6 if you feel that the headphone jack isnt essential
Landon Walker

Jackson King
What's the deal with Xiaomi and Verizon?
Ryan Taylor
They won't work on Verizon as they don't have the network bands needed.
Jaxon Gomez
That seems like the ideal choice, thanks.

What's the go to in android tablets these days? My Nexus 7 (2012) can barely hold a charge and I need a replacement.
Lucas Ortiz
When I do pm list packages it doesn't show all apps that are installed on my phone. That includes apps that came installed with my phone, not just apps I installed manually. Is there a way for me to list all apps?
I want to cleanly uninstall some things I don't need. I can see the APK files in /system/etc/product/applications, but is removing that APK file enough to remove the app?
Jose Roberts
How legit is that information though?
Xavier Kelly
As legit as any you're gonna get.
Jacob Sanders
Geekbuying and Honorbuy are saying they'll have it back in stock at the beginning of next month so I think it's legit
Thanks. It's exactly what I've been doing. The "pm list packages" doesn't return the name of all the programs. Well, maybe it does, but they're cryptic. I am afraid to remove stuff randomly though.
Luke Wright
What exactly is it you want to remove?
Mason Rogers
A few things:
>facebook >something called "messenger" >sony select >timescape >xperia link
I just tested flashing the stock firmware on my phone and it seems to restore the things I randomly uninstall, which is good. I guess I can just try to find those things by trial and error.
Nicholas Brooks
Hey /spg/ I'm about to buy a redmi note 3 and had a question about the "special edition".
I have two options: >3gb ram and mediatek helio x10 >2gb ram and snapdragon 650 (special edition)
Which would you choose? The snap 650 performs about 50% better on benchmarks, but this version has 1gb less RAM than the other. I've had issues in the past with 2gb not really being enough but I had a phone with a locked bootloader and touchwiz - thinking I could deal with 2gb with the right rom.
Both phones can be had for the same price.
Alexander Harris
neither, get redmi note 4
Ryan Harris
I think the idea is to use the grep command to search for specific apps so
pm list packages | grep 'facebook' pm list packages | grep 'sony'
Kevin Cook
Redmi Note 4 Global is the one you want, redmeme 3 is old
Luis Cruz
5.5" is a deal breaker. Really don't want to go over 5"
