Should I go for the Mi Max 2 if I have a p9 lite? That battery is tempting.
Kayden Stewart
Yes
Ryan Russell
Reposting from the old thread: Should I get a BB priv or passport? Priv has true android, but passport has better build and battery, yeah?
Michael Brown
Anyone used any oleophobic coating kits or liquid screen protectors? Are they legit or just snake oil? I don't care about "scratch resistance" and other lofty claims, I'd just like my four year old phone to feel slick again.
This Crystalusion stuff in pic related seems to walk a fine line between looking legit and looking like a scam, I don't even care about the money, I don't want to damage the phone.
Logan Price
Just buy a tempered glass screen protector. I paid less than $2 for mine and it has oleophobic coating on it.
Joshua Howard
When is Nokia releasing their phones in Europe?
Anthony Long
as you see in pic related my power button got loose, anyone know how to fix this? i have a moto G4
Adrian Smith
Glue it back in
Nicholas Reyes
I'm about to go to Verizon to upgrade my Samzung s7 to s8+. Anyone have any other recommendations for phones I can get at verizon.
Caleb Nelson
Axon 7 arrives today. Bets on if it's in one piece?
Samuel White
What courier and from where?
Christopher Morgan
DHL and a store in italy. I ordered it on thursday, and it's coming a day early, but from experience DHL are decent enough.
Carson Watson
Which one has better Battery life and Screen on time ? Mi5 or Zuk Z2 ?
Levi Roberts
Zuk Z2. 3500 mAh battery ~8h SoT. Mi5 3000 mAh battery ~4-5h SoT.
Eli Ward
I have an LG 5, what should I upgrade to? Looking for better performance and battery life. I don't care much for camera. I guess viewing videos in higher quality would be nice too.
Gavin Watson
bullshit, I get 5-6h on my z2
Daniel Brooks
>Zuk Z2. 3500 mAh battery ~8h SoT. Maybe in your dreams.
Kayden Wilson
Nice try Xiaomi shills.
Luis Martin
looking for a phone under 350$
max 5.2". mostly looking for a good (video) camera, smooth operation in general and durability. i live in winland so i'd prefer B20. my thoughts so far:
>huawei nova proper aluminum. great camera except for stills in shitty lighting and there's no 60fps@1080p. smallest of the bunch, ips screen seems meh
>asus zenfone 3 ze520kl decent housing. ips+ seems good. great camera with ois and eis, hdr apparently a bit flawed though. asus kinda sketchy as a manufacturer when it comes to updates and QC? im fine with custom ROMs though
>zuk z2 pro another great camera although the stills are a bit behind in definition. good build quality but has 2.5D glass and shit. zuk might get discontinued but not sure if its a big deal. good amoled.
>moto g5 plus no comparisons in gsmarena but the camera seems very decent thought it lacks eis/ois and 60fps@1080. ive heard some other critique when it comes to more serious photography. bloat-free android is always nice. a bit larger than the others
>xiaomi mi 5s nice metal housing, no gorilla glass though. good camera except for no ois or 60fps. ips kinda meh. no b20.
>honor 8 seems great otherwise but even my current s4 mini has a better video camera
There's no reason to buy the ZUK when Mi5 is the same price and has >better display >better camera >better audio >better build quality >faster memory (UFS 2.1 vs EMMC 5.1) >more custom ROMs (inc. official LineageOS)
Austin Lewis
Yes, black hasn't been available for a long long time
Thomas Price
Why chinks always make shitty woman colours so much that no one doesn't want to buy?
Liam White
Honor 8 and G5+ have the best cameras among the phones you listed. I'd go with the Moto for the stock android and future updates.
William Robinson
>shitty broken GPS >underclocked SD820 >1GB less RAM Fuck off back to /csg/ you stinky xiaoshill.
Parker Cooper
like i said, the shitty video camera in honor 8 is a dealbreaker
Thomas Cook
>good (video) camera Try searching "*phone model* video sample/test" on YouTube to see what the different phones look like
Connor Gray
the compression/processing on youtube makes it kinda pointless
Dominic Cook
>shitty broken GPS it's been fixed, and it never was an issue on custom ROMs
>underclocked SD820 only the 3/32 version is underclocked, 3/64 version (which is selling for $199) is the same as the ZUK
>1GB less RAM literally unnoticeable
All the points still stand
Nathaniel Walker
You won't find much better for $350 and
Benjamin Smith
You can still compare what difference OIS/EIS/neither makes, and the audio quality of the video
Joshua Perez
Phone broke on me last night, costs too much to fix (audio jack broke, screen and thermals messed up, sensor module gone), what's a good phone to replace an lg g3? max budget is 200
Jordan Thomas
sp00ky
Carter Rivera
moto g4 or g5.
Jack Scott
Redmi Note 4 Global
Christian Campbell
looking at gsmarena comparisons, its not really better than the others i listed very true, thanks
Dylan Cox
how good is it? Will it work US T-moble 4g?
Jaxon Anderson
No
Josiah Roberts
Bought Lenovo K5 and fucking christ the camera is utter fucking shit. The front camera is better than the back one, got a refund and looking for a new phone.
Is Redmi 4X or Redmi Note 4X worth it? I just want to have good camera
Levi Thompson
It has band 4 which is T-Mobile's main LTE band so you should get 4g in most places.
Ryder Butler
cool thanks, i checked on willmyphonework and was unsure
Chase Morgan
They both have shit cameras as well. avoid chinkphones if you want a good camera.
Yeah no don't listen to him. it lacks B2 and B12, you won't get shit and end up buying a fancy brick.
Ryan Turner
is there good third party android youtube app that lets me view my subscriptions
I'm looking for a "waterproof" phone that will last me a few years. I'd like a USB-C charging port, SD slot, and at least 3GB ram and 64GB ROM. I can wait a few months if something new and great is coming out but really need to get a new phone before October.
Joshua King
thanks i like newpipe but i want to see subscriptions so thats perfect
What's the recommended file explorer now ES is a botnet?
My native explorer only supports FTP, won't let me browse NAS'
Wyatt Green
amaze or solid explorer i guess
Jason Reyes
I want to remove Smart Connect(tm) from my phone. The problem is I don't know how its called in either the package manager or in the /system/app/ directory.
Is there a way for me to figure out its name? I looked through the installed packages and the directory but nothing with its name is in there, not even resembling.
Jeremiah Ramirez
so what should I get then if im on tmobile and want to spend less than $250-300
Cooper Perez
why the fuck would you use any other file manager when amaze exists and is open source
Luis Gray
htc u11
Alexander Hall
Not him but Amaze crashes all the time on my Xperia Ion (running stock 4.1.2)
there a a bunch of shit reviews on amazon for the g5.
I saw a G6 for $280 on ebay. is that too good?
Xavier Rogers
Yes, it's probably stolen/fucked up Pick one of these
William Cox
Thanks, I didn't know gsmarena had such advanced search options.
I'll check it out.
Isaac Flores
>trusting Amazon reviews You realise it's mainly tech illiterates writing them? Also you're way more likely to write a review if you have something to complain about, for every user having an issue there's 20 people happy with their phone who didn't write a review
Jeremiah Johnson
it just has a cracked screen so a moto g5 is the best?
Adrian Jenkins
Thanks. How did you figure it out?
I tried that one before, but it didn't work (it seemed to be still on my phone). Then I opened up my /system/app directory with my file manager and it showed the icons. I found 2 files which had the same icon as the app I wanted to remove and delete those. The app is now gone.
Easton Ward
What's more important to you? Features on a phone or OS support/updates?
Isaiah Morgan
SkyTube has offline subscriptions not tied to any account
Nolan Bell
MK Explorer
Carson Lee
os updates and just a snappy response. I dont download games or any other shit so just want instant feedback
Christopher Reyes
You'll get a snappy response from any of the ones I mentioned because their ROMs are rather lightweight and the 625 truly is the sweetspot SoC, but if updates are really what matters then you should get the G5+
Grayson Miller
thanks, i'm going from a nokia lumia 620 and am a bit tired of windows os
Jonathan Davis
here, thoughts on the Samsung Galaxy A5?
I'd rather it had more internal storage than 32GB but with the SD card that probably wouldn't be an issue. Price point and other features look fine to me. I've never owned a Samsung phone before but I've heard people complaining about all the bloated software they pre-install on their phones, how bad is it really?
Jonathan Lewis
also how can i know if the ZTE Blade V8 Pro Alcatel Idol 5S are supported by t mobile lte?
Xavier Collins
do you have a specific recommendation?
Xavier Howard
A5 2017 is alright. camera is shit though.
They are.
Lucas Wilson
>camera is shit though
Well I currently have a 3rd gen Moto G which doesn't have a great camera. As long as the Samsung's camera is comparable to or better than my current phone then that'd be fine.
Ethan Walker
Look up the bands on the phones info page on GSMArena.com T-Mo/AT&Ts usual bands are 2/4/5/12/17 but 12 and 17 have been rolled into each other so if you see either mentioned it means 700MHz is supported on both T-Mo and AT&T
Elijah Wright
what's a good chink phone to buy? i have, at most, 200$. 150$ would be apreciated.
Oliver Morales
Also, aren't there any shops that ship phones the way Goldway used to? First in UK, then in EU, I mean.
Robert Scott
thank you so much have a donut
Chase Moore
Mi5s Redmi note 4 Global Zuk Z2
Honorbuy Ibuygou Giztop Grossoshop Flosmall
all have EU warehouses or EU protected shipping.
Henry Foster
Most free as in freedumb smart phone?
Ethan Reed
can i import subscriptions from my youtube account
Eli Perez
Moto G5 Plus really does have all day battery, holy shit.
So glad I got it for $349
Carson Turner
The only thing I'm not too sure about is B28 support which is seen on some chinkphones, B28 uses the 700MHz spectrum, but slightly different It does overlap frequencies with B12/17, but I'm not sure if a device with B28 support could pick up the frequencies in B12/17
Would anyone know this?
Dylan Collins
so theoretically I could use a redmi note 4 but on 3G?
