My launch Nexus 5 still gets 3 hours of SOT without any special measures taken, "hax", or custom ROMs. It's mostly on Wi-Fi though, but still, it's been my daily driver for almost four years now.

i've been using Xiaomi Redmi 4A 2/32 for the past week. pretty cool, handles pixel dungeon like a champ, battery's great and everything's smooth, at least for my usage. any questions?
Thomas Allen
Redmi 4 Prime is only lsightly more expensive but is much better. why didn't you get it instead.
Nicholas Anderson
How's MIUI?

Anyone have any experience with Japanese phones? I'm looking at the Kyocera KYF31 Gratina 4G as a replacement for my old S500i They say it runs Android, but it seems navigation on it isn't as straightforward as a touchscreen.
Can an Android phone have comparable battery life to a feature phone?
Camden Ortiz
I have a xiaomi mi4 which is dying, random reboots all of the time. Thought it was battery but the vendor tells me it might be the motherboard. I can let it get repaired for 35 or 160 depending on which of the two is broken.
Or I can buy a new phone but I dont really want to.
Anyways, recommend me some

Hey I was wanting to get a phone to replace my oneplus one which is refusing to charge and replacing the battery hasn't fixed it.

Don't buy those chinkshit trash.
For £200 you can buy a Moto G5+ or Lenovo P2 from 3 or carphone warehouse, both are massively better than this overshilled Xiaomeme crap.
Connor Cooper
because i live in eastern yurop and wanted a budget phone. also i ordered from a local shop (not china, with a discount it was almost the same price) and after checking now, redmi 4 prime is literally 2 times more expensive. >inb4 poorfag meme >unironically buying "flagship" chinkphones
coming from shitty lg l65 on kitkat i'd say miui is better in every way (obviously). - it uses 1gb of ram, so i have a full 1gb free for apps which is enough for me since all i do is watch porn and play pixel dungeon. - there's already a new update that i haven't installed yet, might do it today after a backup - shitloads of options and customization, though most of the downloadable themes are garbage and it makes ricing kind of hard. currently using iOS AfterDark theme which looks good, but taskbar icons are pretty shit and i can't seem to modify them without rooting or changing theme - maybe it's because of my theme but pattern lock screen looks like shit - it came with preinstalled Swiftkey (which i uninstalled) and an app for "cleaning" like SD Maid + here are options for limiting battery usage and DISABLING AUTOSTART of applications which is a huge plus for me
can't think of anything more. basically expect some theme "issues" (for a ricefag) everything's good. as for the phone itself my only gripe is with shitty volume/power buttons.
pic related, work in progress (no klwp/kwgt yet), ignore the icons, i'm having some trouble with them (for some reason custom icons for apps become noticeably smaller)
Elijah Perry
Redmi 4X has a SD435 SoC, Redmi Note 4X has a SD625. The version you want in the UK is the Redmi Note 4 Global which is basically a Note 4X but with more network bands (including band 20 used in UK). You can get it from Honorbuy European warehouse or Ibuygou with customs insurance to avoid custom duties/VAT
Samuel Gray
Get a Lenovo P2, £200 from Three, no SIM lock or carrier bloat

Are there any Essential Phone reviews yet ?
Isn't it supposed to ship soon ? Why haven't they sent samples out to reviewers?

Thanks a lot that's really helped.
Thanks I'll look into it. £200 is like the very top of my budget I'm tight for cash right now and would prefer it to be as cheap as possible while still being a fair replacement.

>taskbar icons are pretty shit and i can't seem to modify them without rooting or changing theme Theme store -> person icon on top left corner -> "customise theme" -> "status bar"
You'll have to download the entire theme first and can't just partially download it, and most look similar to default.
Anthony Gutierrez
What is the cheapest Android phone that would be compatible with android wear?
I'm in Australia, prefer unlocked, and my budget would be $100-200 max.
I only use my phone for calls, text, music/podcasts and occasional googling/wifi hotspotting.
However, I like and use my smartwatch (huawei) too much to sacrifice it.
I have little to offer in return for help, I mainly post on /lit/ and would answer any literary questions you have though.

>jumped from a Moto G2 with Snap 400, 1gb RAM to a Zuk Z2 pro with Snap 820, 6gb RAM
I don't know, what's the point, I use this phone to do the exact same shit I did with my Moto G2, being able to play Mobile Legends at a decent frame rate, 4G network and a battery that truly lasts all day is nice I guess
oh yeah, AMOLED fucking blows, I'm kind of scared, my eyes see IPS screens as shit now, every phone I'll bought on the future will have to feature an AMOLED screen because of that
pic related, home screen (pixel launcher with two widgets on the right) I only use the apps on the dock, mobile legends and YouTube occasionally

Regarding Huawei P10 reportedly ships in different memory configurations.
Is there a way to know that I am buying the LPDDR4 + UFS 2.1 and not a getting a raw deal?

Best custom rom for Redmi Note 4(mido)?
Otherwise, is there a good way to unchink MIUI so that it respects any level of my freedoms? I don't actually mind MIUI and I don't see why I couldn't just use Nova as a launcher and be done with it - but I'm concerned about chink spyware...
William Evans
This is gonna cost well over $1000 burgers isn't it?
Isaac James
Since the motoX4 announcement was delayed can I expect it to be announced towards the end of July and available by mid to late August?
Juan Phillips
Xiaomi.eu is a debloated and de-chinkified MIUI ROM, I guess you could also root and use some firewall app to block the chink apps
Robert Bell
Is there any real reason to upgrade from a s7 to the s8? My contract is finished and they're offering me a s8 64gb for £55 unlimited everything etc, but my s7 is still in mint condition and I can continue my contract with o2 SIM only with similar call and data limits for £15 a month.
Jose Perry
Can anyone help me here? I came back to Lineage after realizing how awful AOSP is, the thing is, I remember that Lineage offers a setting that disables power menu on lockscreen (if turned on you won't get the turn off/restart prompt when you press and hold the power button in the lockscreen), I can't seem to find it now though, tried searching through the setting but still no luck.
Jaxon Johnson
The current rumor is that we'll see a refresh of the iPhone 7 and 7+ (7S and 7S+ probably) that'll be around the same price as the current ones, and a more premium iPhone 8 which will be more expensive than the other two.
Xavier Long
No, the only thing the S8 has over the S7 is stupid gimmicks like small bezels and bixby button.
Luke Butler
anyone looking at honor 9
Liam Green
What desktop cpu or what year pc's most Advanced mobile socs like apple a10 and snapdragon 835 compares to?
Jaxson Fisher
Do the flagships (S8, G6, OP5) all have good Miracast support?
There was a CM update a while back that made Bluetooth and Miracast almost unusable on the Oneplus One. They slowly fixed some of the problems caused by that patch, but Miracast support is still shit.
Jonathan Kelly
>Onboard machine learning >x86 emulation >Can emulate Gamecube smoothly >Better sensors for VR If you don't care about that stuff, the SD835 is a pointless upgrade from the 820.

I'd say an SD835 is like a 3rd gen i5 with a GTX 650ti
Ryan Powell
Lol what. Mobile soc doesn't come even close to even gen 1. I5
Carson Anderson
ATM I am using Nexus 5 (SD801 processor) I wonder if I hold on to it and buy an SD845 phone - how much of a performance boost will i get? 28 to 7 nm tech, on top of screen and battery innovation - maybe I should get one plus 6 or lg g7/ v30? What do you think, faggets? BTW eastern euro

Some people come here for best sub 150 USD chinkphone after their last phone dies. Is it still raging consumerism? What should I buy? 50 USD phone that will fall apart in two months?
Noah Powell
What's nice phone for less than 200e that has similar software to samsung s4: app menu that's separate from the main screen and a dedicated button that opens it and a file manager by default?
Daniel Lee
>file manager by default because downloading one off the app store is too hard?
Is there site like this which ranks all mobile soc from top to bottom.
Juan Torres
What's the catch to the Cagabi One? Its a little over $50
Juan Hall
tell me guys is there such a thing as a rooting scene for blackberry I have bb bold 9900 I used daily for years now and I want to continue using it but it's all abandoned and the bb appstore is more or less dead. Is there any way to give this thing a second life?
Ryan Long
How long is the contract? 40*24= 960 (i.e. more than the price of s8) Buying phones on contracts is either for poorfags who don't even have a few hundred bucks or idiots who can't count. Unless it's only one year contract then the price is identical to s8 (just buy a used oldest cheapest smartphone out there in good condition and turn in for the 200 off meme)
Juan Lopez
Short answer, yes.
tl;dr answer: the phone before my samsung didn't have one by default so I downloaded ES manager only to have it change something that made using it a hassle. Samsung S4 had a clean and easy manager to use off the bat. I didn't have to download and test other managers to see if I liek it it, if it's fast, if it crashes etc...
Also, I'd like it to have a music player that lets my easily make my own playlists in any way imaginable.
Isaiah Parker
Just got a HTC 10. 25 bucks a month unlimited texts unlimited minutes 8gb data p\m.
Anyone else got one? Enjoying it?
I don't upgrade often my last phone was HTC One M8 and it lasted me well 3 years got 70 quid cash trade-in for it. Phone prior to that was an iPhone 4. Never apple again.
Also can anyone recommend a good Bluetooth gamepad with phone attachment from Amazon for emulating retro vidya?
You sound too tech illiterate to be on Sup Forums. Just get another Samsung.
William Myers
I was thinking of getting one or just getting an SD660 phone
Nicholas Wood
Maybe I do, but the fact of the matter is that some phones have good software, and others have crap.
What file manager are you using, tell me.
Levi Young
why not

Gay and retarded. HT17 Pro is much better for an extra $20.

He's kinda picky though so make mention of the reference4

MIUI has an issue with notifications since it likes to close apps and processes in the background when something is idle. It's very aggressive and I've had issues with it

I picked up the new Moto E4, was using the E2 before. I live in Canada, and it was the same price I paid for the E2 a few years ago. It's nice. The screen is 720p, but its clear, bright, smudgeproof. You can get rid of the 3 virtual buttons and use the finger print sensor as a 5-in-one touch button. I only get to use 8GB of tye 16GB, but its got Nougat, which runs great on this phone. There's probably better options depending on where you live (G5, etc), but in the US its $70 with Verizon and I thought it was a steal for $200 here in the Great White North. Check it out if you're on the hunt for a budget phone.
Grayson Mitchell
USA, no carrier specfic. Unlocked and phablet-sized would be appreciated. Basic tasks to be done - at most gaming. What's the best I could get for less than $100?
Jayden Miller
Does the camera on 3T still wor the same if I installed lineageos?

Yeah. I've been looking for unlocked phones for a while now, and once I found out Freedom had the E4 it was everything I wanted and I didn't have to deal with Amazon/eBay. >$200 >2GB RAM >More than 8GB storage >SD >Nougat I mostly play DS and GBA emulators, browse, and read comics/manga on it. But there's definitely better priced options, the E4 hit all my criteria and I was able to just go buy it when I finished researching it.

I bought it last night, gets here in two days. Kind of having buyers remorse, especially since I didn't use the 20$ off to get a free case.
