Nathaniel Cruz
When did Qualcomm release a Snapdragon 825? Anyway, Axon 7 is probably your best option, that or a used OP3T
Hudson Bell
Does anyone know of a good guide on how to install lineageOS on a redmi note 4 ? I know the official lineage rom is not out already but I want to try and install it.
Ethan Foster
UK here Should i get an LG G6, Sony Xperia XZ or HTC 10 (not a fan of the U11)? any other recommendations? no samsungs plz. also, money isn't an issue
Owen Baker
6th for KFC phone
James Ramirez
If you care about Android software updates, then either Pixel or hold out for Pixel 2
>tfw bought Pixel 2 weeks ago, and unironically really like it
Leo Ortiz
I was playing with an xperia XZ premium yesterday and it was really nice, however if you're after a standard size I think the htc is what i'd go for.
Jaxson Anderson
Was considering the Redmi Note 4 Global. What's the best chinkstore to order it from?
If you're in Europe then Ibuygou.com, choose the custom duty insurance and you won't have to pay VAT.
Xavier Howard
the pepsi one actually looks pretty fucking great for $110, shame it can't be bought
Adrian Ramirez
It seems they don't have the global edition though.
Lucas Turner
Unlock bootloader Flash a recovery rom Download latest lineage Place on sdcard or on phone Wipe some stuffs, I forget which Install zip from as card Install gapps if needed Reboot and you're done
I want to buy Xiaomi 4. I mostly use my phone for calling, maps, surfing, messengers and reading. I like long battery life.
Ok/not ok?
Carson Jones
When will this cunt phone come out?
Fuck it looks so good, cant wait to get rid of the s7 edge
Isaac Davis
September or October most likely
Landon Clark
>wants to get rid of the s7 edge >barely a year old >my phone is already 4 years old What the heck is wrong with you people. Jews are very happy about you.
Tyler Harris
Some people can afford having nice things.
David Richardson
This triggers me hard. Corporations being in bed with each other is normal, but a shitty, unpalatable, bottom of the barrel fast food company and a mediocre chink phone company? This is a match made in the ninth fucking circle of Hell. What kind of mindless, brain dead, subhuman zombie would even touch this horrid excuse for a product?
I swear I will fly to China and personally kill every chink who buys this.
Parker Evans
Moto G5. Mi5s if you wanna import.
Jose Barnes
>When did Qualcomm release a Snapdragon 825?
Never. > Anyway, Axon 7 is probably your best option, This will probably be what I'll get. The ugly zuk z2 pro is also under consideration. It's ugly, but cheap, and looks like it mostly works on both verizon/tmobile.
Nicholas Phillips
both of those are nearly 400 leafbux
Lucas Adams
Keep in mind Verizon only allows devices approved by them on their network so you'll need a Verizon phone to activate the SIM with before it'll work in non-approved phones.
Ethan Evans
fuck I can't unlock without the permission of xiaomi (which I have) but I need to way fucking 72 hours to unlock it fuggg well at least the phone works well
Christopher Jenkins
android best camera go
Alexander Nelson
HTC U11, Galaxy S8, Google Pixel, LG G6
David Clark
Can someone recommend me phones that (in descending priority):
>use in europe >"easy" to unlock bootloader, root and restore stock firmware (don't care about custom ROMs really) >2GB RAM (general responsiveness, I assume it has more to do with the CPU, but I don't know anything about smartphones) >not huge (5' would be okay, I guess) >decent battery life >decent camera
Budget 150$ (will be buying 2nd hand though)
My current choice is an LG Nexus 5, but it doesn't tick off all of the requirements.
Grayson Miller
About to get a certified refurbished phone, what am I in for
Angel Lewis
Moto E4
Liam Moore
Nokia 3
Julian Hill
You won't find anything decent for $120. maybe G4 Play or Blu R1 HD.
Andrew Campbell
Just checked and both of those seem to be new and I can't buy them in my country yet. I'm also having trouble finding information if it's possible to unlock their bootloaders, root them and flash back or even find stock firmware online.
I wouldn't care if the phone is older from a couple of years ago. Even better actually, since I don't want to get a new one, used phones are also okay in my case.
Robert Howard
huawei phones are good though.
Ayden Morgan
You can check the tutorial for the red meme note 3 pro as well on the official lineage website
Nicholas Fisher
Yeah but to unlock the phone I still need to use xiaomi's program and it makes me wait for 72 hours before I can unlock my shit fucking chink man
Justin Gutierrez
Moto G5
James Cook
Any opinions on the Xperia XA1?
Tyler Walker
It's not that bad of a process but yeah you'll have to wait. Who knows, maybe you'll learn to love it
Chase Scott
how the fuck do you get rid of the google search bar on OmniROM this shit shouldnt be so difficult but i cant find anything in the settings to get rid of it i can disable it from the apps but its still there, mocking me in the homescreen, just unusable
Brayden Morgan
no experience of that particular model but i think its a faggot move from sony to put camera features behind drm keys that are removed if you unlock the bootloader. sony cameras are nice but they turn into potatoes without the keys unless you do hax.
Sebastian Smith
nvm i got it, fuck yes. i just held the homescreen until "wallpapers/widgets/themes" buttons came up and chose settings which had the option to turn it off.
Colton Martinez
Pros -great build quality -stock android 7.0 nougat rom, no bloat -decent performance -good camera for the price -expandable storage -USB-C, NFC, FM radio
Cons -display is only 720p -average battery life -Mediatek SoC means no custom ROMs -no fingerprint reader (this might be a pro for some)
I'd recommend it especially if you're after a midrange phone with a good camera. If camera isn't your main priority there's probably better phones available.
Liam Hill
Wipe it down thouroughly with rubbing alcohol, because people are disgusting.
Lucas Davis
Especially since a lot of people watch porn on their phones
William Williams
What's a good budget phone that isn't made by chink companies?
Motoral G5 has chinks calling the shots right? I don't want China to have that much overhead over my stuff.
Oliver Roberts
Trying to find a phone around 4 inches, getting sick of carrying my Nexus 6 around with how unstable its been. Any advice would be appreciated. >Country USA >Carrier AT&T >Features As stated above, just something small, and preferably not slow or frustrating. I looked at the Galaxy J1 Prime (Usually not a fan of Samsung) that looked like it may fit the bill, but can't find much online about it. >Budget Up to $200
Also wouldn't mind using my old IPhone 4S I have stored away, if anyone knows how to upgrade it from an old IOS version to one that is unsigned so that I can jailbreak it.
Pic related, its the Samsung phone I was looking at.
Grayson Sanders
Every smartphone is made in China
Thomas Russell
It's different if it's just manufactured there and if it's overlooked by a chinese company. I hope
Bentley Torres
Nokia 3, 5 or 6
Charles Thomas
what are the risks of staying with an older OS?
I was thinking about purchasing the high end phone of 2014 now for a good deal. I guess they're not supported solely for making people buy a newer smartphone, right? I mean specs wise why wouldn't a Galaxy S4 be able to handle the latest version of Android?
I'm not sure if acquiring that is gonna be so bad, sounds like FUD spread by shills who just want me to get conned into the yearly purchase scheme.
Benjamin Gonzalez
iPhone SE, Xperia X Compact, Galaxy A3 2017 are pretty much the only compact size phones worth considering. Everything else is either too old or super low budget tier. Either increase your budget or buy used.
Sorry fellow leaf lad but dont think you're gonna get that or really anything decent for under $150 except maybe a pretty old flagship, better get one with removable battery if you do that. Galaxy S of some sort might be your best bet if you can stand samsungs
Levi Cox
they're made by chinks too. nokia just borrows the license to them.
everything is fucking made by chinks, deal with it.
Samuel Thompson
>HMD Global >chinks
Tyler Martinez
But Nokia (HMD Global) has control over the design, their phones are just as much chink as Apple (well actually less as the Nokia's arent even made in China, but India and Taiwan.
Noah Price
taiwan is just mini china and pajeets are poo chinks so i dont see how that makes it any better
Jayden Nelson
Not him but I've been loooking at the Nokia 6 for the build quality and the fast updates but isn't the 430 kinda weak for the price?
John Torres
It's not that much weaker than the SD625 in a Moto G5+, the SD430 scores about 44k in Antutu and SD625 ~63k. I don't think you'd notice that much of a difference outside games. Of course if performance matter to you more than fast updates then you're probably better off with another phone.
Ryder Foster
Redmi 4a, brand new ones are 150€
Noah Barnes
Is it just my imagination or are the displays of I phones more fragile? I see so many iPhones with a broken display glass each day and almost no android phones (except for Samsung galaxy phones).
What do you guys think of the Moto Z Play? Is it worth getting now? I've been eyeballing the Nokia 6 but I noticed that the Moto Z Play isn't much more expensive. Also, does anyone know if it's going to get Android O?
Gavin Morris
I'd rather have build quality and fast update which what I liked about Motorola before the Lenovo take over, plus I don't play much game except the occasional weebshit which barely runs on my OG moto G.
Fuck why is it so hard to have android phones with updates?
David Turner
I want an XBOX HUEG phone: LG V20 or the Huawei Mate 9 (P10 looks good but is too damn expensive for not being that much different than the Mate 9)
Landon Miller
This is why planned obsolescence and the phasing out of removable batteries are a thing. Literally $800 disposable fashion accessories because of people like this.
It's so fucking frustrating and upsetting having to live under the tyranny of the autistic shit taste of normies. Because of them I simply can't have nice things. Even if I'm willing to pay top dollar for them because even the expensive things are glass-covered shit now.
Jaxson Collins
Mi Max 2
Anthony Bailey
Its good. Amazing battery life and nice AMOLED screen. Motomods are also pretty nice. Camera isn't anything special. Android O hasn't been confirmed yet but I'd think it's more likely than not that it'll receive it (but knowing Lenovo they'll take ages releasing the update)
Carter Wood
No I think he wants a good phone
Alexander Robinson
Yeah that's the main thing that I like about the Nokia 6, the frequent updates. That's and the incredible build quality. Which do you think is a better choice, the Amazon Nokia 6 ($180) or the Moto Z Play at around $230-$300 (depending on where I get it)
Adrian Butler
Also since Lenovo bought Motorola, they've became very shitty with update especially with the G series. IMO if you prioritize updates, avoid the Z Play
Aiden Jenkins
I gotcha. Thanks a lot, man.
Xavier Turner
I'm not sure you can blame that on the masses. People used to love having durable things. Across industries management types are cutting corners and offering cheapness and convenience that turn out to be anything but.
Caleb Johnson
Do I really need more than 2GB of RAM? I'm going back and forth between a 2GB and 4GB G5+. I don't game or use social media apps on my phone. I basically use Clover, Firefox, Maps, Camera, Blockfolio, Messaging, Lastpass, Tapatalk, and a few banking apps. I've never seen my "average memory use" exceed 1.5GB.
Wyatt Mitchell
Guys is it worth to get a Huawei P10 for 259 euros? Brand new from store.
Hunter Rivera
do we know what displaysize the nokia 7 / 8 will have?
Carson Ortiz
Absolutely. How tf is it so cheap?
Connor Mitchell
What is the cheapest 300ppi+ phone? I fell for the retina meme and now i hate my own phone
Elijah Lee
>Pixel 2 XL Oh look, another generic oversized phone with specs I have no use for + built in botnet.
Seriously though. If you buy into this shit you're no better than women with jewelry.
Posting this from a Nexus 4 with 7.1.2, and will continue until it's physically unusable.
Matthew Wilson
What store is that? You can usually only get the P10 lite for that price.
Benjamin Nelson
Is Huawei a chink meme?
Jaxson James
Kinda envious, my xperia zr doesn't have official los anymore and it's slowly falling apart. Newer nexuslike phones are so fucking big..
Carter Davis
It's some deal a store has for students.
Ethan Hall
Unknown. Supposedly there's going to be a 7, 8, and 9. For awhile the speculation was it was just 7 and 8. Also there may be a Nokia 2.
Why does my app drawer look like thus? Im running lineage OS
Jonathan Scott
Wew I didn't realize 720p @ 4.7" was 300+ ppi already.
So I guess my question is moot
Ayden Phillips
>he doesn't use Nova
Easton Morales
I still have Redmi Note 1 that Sup Forums recommended years ago. I am very thankful to Sup Forums ... good phone for me when I was a poorfag ... I like it but I have more money now and could afford something better... I'm looking for a phone that
- should be as big as possible (I have huge hands)
- doesn't have "round corners" (not like Samsung-design... more sony xperia style or some HTC... I also like HTC One design)
- I don't care about camera quality
- battery quality is not super important,... as long as it lasts 1 day with normal use it's ok
- very important: no gay software like chinese or anything at all... must be as close to Stock Android as possible
- extra security features welcome (maybe fingerprint? not sure if that is a good feature?)
- support for NFC a plus
I will buy directly without a monthly plan
---
any recommendation?
thank you for any idiea, I haven't looked at phones for years and I'm looking at my opptions now
currently looking at LG v20 and Honor 8
Camden Myers
Hey guys I just picked up the G5+ based on recommendations here. It seems like a nice phone overall except for one MAJOR issue.
>no notification LED
WTF? How the fuck am I supposed to tell if I've missed a notification when my phone is sitting on the table or on my desk? Why does no one ever mention this in reviews?
Nicholas Cooper
OH GOD sorry for the Reddit spacing guys I kind of revealed my true Rebbit identity there :(
Brandon Cox
Fucking this.
The best we can do is find a good, durable phone and stick with that until it dies. Praise be to lineage OS developers and OEM batteries off eBay
Evan Bailey
Let's assume the LG Q6+ (the 4GB version) comes out in the €300 ballpark: with the street price of the G6 at €400, what will be better buying?
Justin Rivera
what's your budget?
sounds like you like aesthetics:
Sony Xperia XZ Premium Nokia 9 (not out yet) Pixel 2 (not out yet)
Those are the boxy phones I can think of with non-chink software. But you'll pay for the looks.
