Why are people not jumping on this phone?
I had a Nexus 5X which bootlooped and I replaced it with this.
-Faster
-3rd party ROM support
-killer specs for $120
-original design
-no boot loop
If it had an SD card slot I would've said it is the best phone I've used, but since it doesn't, it falls short of the one M8.

Cause it sucks?
It's already dead in the water as far as Nextbit is concerned.
Looks very good OP, what about temperature?
I hate how this phone looks. Also the all plastic build quality sucks ass. If you live in countries like mine where it costs 11$/month for 1GB of data this thing is almost a brick. A cheap plastic brick
>If you live in countries like mine where it costs 11$/month for 1GB of data this thing is almost a brick
I don't understand what you're trying to say, isn't this valid for any other phone in your case?
he's probably talking about no sd card and streaming stuff...
Temps are just fine, haven't noticed it getting hot or slowing down.
Jerryrig is a shill. I literally could not bend my M9 and he claims a child could do it. Also watch his LG gram test, the thing fucking breaks and he covers it up.
While the robin probably can be broken easily, I've not had any issue after dropping it and sitting on it a few times. It is $120, buy two if you are that afraid.
Because LeEco phones are much better value.

No headphone jack. Unfucking usable.
Those features even if they're an interesting concept, they're kind of gimmicky. More important, they're 100% optional. You can disable the "cloud" features and use it as any other normal smartphone. Or even put LineageOS on it and be done.
why do you autists obsess over bend tests??? do you clumsy retards literally have to put 3 point pressure on your phone to use it??
I use Bluetooth earphones most of the time so it's fine for me.

This is unironically the best looking phone I've ever seen. I literally don't know a better looking smartphone. I may buy it in the future for looks alone.
It seems everyone on here is a tech illiterate retard with disgusting taste. I don't even know how you can say that.
>I may buy it in the future
yeah, about that...
find a better looking phone for $120 with the same specs
I know you can't buy them new. I don't intend to buy it new.
Nice goalpost shift. You said nothing about 'design for the price'. You only mentioned that its flat out the best looking smartphone you've ever seen. Fuck off. I don't care about the cheap pajeetphone market anyway. Enjoy your garbage.

ebay.com
im not that user. Taste is subjective, but the price for what you get is pretty appealing even if you don't it.
isn't it (((cloud))) based? is it fully open source cause if not it's selling data 100%
you have to sign in through google to activate the cloud feature. Could easily install something like lineage if you wanted to.
oh, cool then I guess I'm still waiting for the john mcaffee privacy phone, physical disconnect switches for wifi, GSM, mic,cameras and doesn't even make connections to stingrays
holy shit I just found out this phone, I'm about to pull the trigger. Please reassure me Sup Forums
Check the specs and read the reviews first
Rn3p is better and has an SD slot. Bigger battery too. It's unironically the best meme to fall for as far as Sup Forums memes go
But it costs twice as much
>Why are people not jumping on this phone?
Because Xiaomi Redmi 4 series:
>Fastest than Robin
>Acceptable 3rd party ROM support + stock MIUI
>Better specs for the same price
>Nice, clean and comfy design without overusing of brand logo
>No bootloop
Plus
>Fingerprint scanner
>Capacitive buttons that doesn't waste screen space
>Literally two-days battery
>MicroSD
>Dual SIM
>Aluminium body that doesn't break in half
>Official support guaranteed for at least 4 years (Xiaomi is still updating the Mi 2)
Pretty sure it's the same autists obsessing over keyboard flex.
Because the Nextbit Robin fully supports US GSM bands, Xiaomi phones don't
androidpolice.com
They do, that's why global versions exist
Do some research, even the Global versions are missing US bands (700mhz B12/B17 for example)
>700MHz
>Implying it's relevant
It's very relevant. B17 is AT&T's main LTE band, B12 is the band T-Mobile uses VoLTE. 700mhz also has far better range and penetration through walls than the higher frequency bands.
And is also awfully slow, what's the point
It's still 4G
>I literally don't know a better looking smartphone.
>literally
You don't even know what this word means
LTE is 3.5G, not 4G
But yeah, slower than HSPA+ but still LTE
as the other user said, that band gives you coverage for places you otherwise won't
it's not about speed, it's about range
you're stupid, stop replying if you lack basic knowledge
I don't "killer specs for x", I need killer specs period. And huge dev community.
>Yeah it's useless but I prefer having it anyway, Stacy says HSPA is sooooo old fashioned
Does it support lte+?
because it's not that good
any xiaomi is better for a similar price (at least for an european)
literally go and fuck yourself
>implying amerifat bands are necessary
useless garbage, americans are scared of chinks anyway while i enjoy a cheap phone working perfectly in europe
>I may buy it in the future
Should we tell him, guys?
I have a 5x I just replaced with an iPhone. I'll put it on eBay for $120 if anyone wants this amazing phone as the OP describes it.
Let's sticky this
>-original design
blatant Xperia design ripoff
Because it's like a worse XZ
>owning a 1984 device
Lmao. Retard
The XZ doesn't cost $120 though
They are necessary if you're an amerifat
