Guys, talk me out of buying a Xiaomi Mi 5x >5.5" 1080x1920 screen >4 GB RAM, 64 GB ROM >Dual rear camera >Fingerprint and usb type C I like how it resembles iPhone (i'm a fan of the iPhone design), but it has an actually usefull OS. I don't play muh games on my phone, I chat on it, listen to the music and ocassionaly snap a photo with it. It's quite cheap and I already have a good opinion for the company since I had a Redmi Note 2 Prime. I liked how easy it was to flash a rom or root it, it was a nice phone overall but the camera sucked. I heard that there is going to be a Redmi 5a, I'm also considering it, but mi 5x is already out. What do you guys think? Please, reply to this post. I would like to purchase it but dont want to make a mistake by doing so
Jack Cook
Opinions of MIUI?
Daniel Miller
Why 5x over 6?
Jack Rogers
It's just a RN4 with a shitty battery. get the RN4 global instead. it has official LOS and RR.
Pure cancer.
Gabriel Sanchez
Just jumping in to say that Moto G4 Plus is perfect. I will never buy an expensive phone again.
Carson Cooper
Can Costco ship to Australia?
Robert Barnes
It's cheaper The battery is not shitty, batery is not only its capacity For me it's comfy af. I remember the times when there were developer versions with built in root, that was good. Its really nice but its very different from material design so it looks kinda out of place
Used for 6 months on my rn3p before getting sick of missed notification and installing lineage is. Never regret. I also discovered the world of ricing, so I'm pretty happy with it. MIUI bad imo. Has its nice features I miss but I can't stand missed notifications. I don't really know... It's like the zuk line: they're not amazing phones, it's just the value they offer after some time is insane. But still I haven't really checked out the note 5 so I might be wrong.
Kevin Hernandez
Overall best budget phone right now? No chink shit, I'm not falling for that meme again.
Ayden Young
Redmi Note 4 Global
Jaxson Anderson
No chink shit please, I'm serious about this.
Connor Martin
what are you racist?
Justin Gonzalez
Best 4.5 inch phone in Australia for under 150? Have been considering a j1 mini, don't need anything fancy
Anthony Brown
Moto G5+. check the costco deal in OP.
Carson Rivera
Hey guys, got my Redmi Note 4 on your recommendation. I'm a newbie to Android so could someone give me a comprehensive guide on getting this onto Lineage OS or the next best thing?
Evan Cruz
Which rom should I install on my Redmi Note 3 for stability? I'm on MIUI, but I'm tired of the terrible notification system. Last time I installed Lineage, it locked me out with some kind of encryption error after I did a weekly update. Same thing happened with Nitrogen.
You really shouldn't have bought this as your 1st android phone but w/e.
James Morales
Well, I've been using iPhone 4 for years and lost it in a tragic pool accident, I want off Apple's wild ride so this seemed like the next best thing.

I got my old Galaxy Nexus (i9250) running again, but it's way way slower than I remember. Maybe I'm spoiled. Either way I'd like a ROM that just werks and is fast. Don't really require any features beyond brower and Android 2.1 compatibility.
Less than a week to go. Apparently they're also announcing a 3310 with 3G which is also nice.
Camden Stewart
I'm torn between LG G6 and Honor 9. Does the same bootloop problem still exist in G6 like in previous LG phones? It's pretty much the only reason why I'm even considering anything other than G6.
Julian Lewis
Yes. the Honor is better anyway.
Samuel Rivera
The 3310 should come with a high resolution dac imo, perfect phone Yeah it's quite stable now, get the official version
Liam Anderson
lineage has been pretty stable for me but im tempted to try resurrection remix. i just havent gotten to it because im using a kate model.
Hunter Hernandez
Are cases and screen protectors worth buying or is it snake oil/just for aesthetics?
I'm a poorfag but I'm considering getting a case/protector for my Moto G5 plus, but don't really know if this investment will be worth it in the long run.
Gabriel Harris
You don't plan on dropping your phone, it just happens If you don't want to buy an hardened glass screen protector (which isn't expensive) you should at least buy a cheapish case to prevent damage from falling and scratches
Charles Reed
>he fell for the custom rom meme
Josiah Collins
A quality glass screen protector is absolutely worth it, to keep your screen scratch-free and it might even prevent it from cracking if you happen to drop your phone. A case is down to your own preference, it'll protect the phone body from scratches and dents from possible drops but it'll also make the phone bulkier and some might say it ruins the aesthetics.
Check out Aliexpress if you're a poorfag, it's the same shit that's in local stores and Amazon for a fraction of the price.
Will G4 devices EVER get Nougat? The thing has been in Soon(tm) limbo for like a year. At least the Play has.
Josiah Sullivan
Thanks anons, guess I'll go get a case and screen protection.
I just hate making unnecessary purchases, but at least this should (hopefully) increase the longevity of the phone.
Oliver Foster
G4 plus currently running 7.0. Pretty comfy.
Jackson Perez
Fuck. Play release when? It's like Lenovo forgot the model exists. Everyone is bitching about it on the forums.
Mason Morgan
So, I got myself my first Huawei android phone. What are some recommended /spg/ apps?
Easton Peterson
Bought a cheap Samshit Tab A with light bleed.
Should I return it?
Hunter Butler
Old phone broke so I got a Lumia 650 from work, should I use this or just buy a new one since I got it for free?
Joshua Roberts
got my priv today god damn this thing is so pretty, just werks aswell for me considering i'll only use it for basic things quick question though, as someone who has used an iphone 4 since it came out, what apps do you guys recc? I have clover and firefox focus but not much else
Nicholas Campbell
I'm looking for a flagship with good battery life. Have a htc 10 and love everything about it, but with 4g my battery is dead after 2hrs of using the phone. Anything comparable to build quality and speed to the htc 10 but with double the battery life? Like 4hrs sot even when using mobile data?
>are helmets and bulletproof vests worth buying or is it snake oil/just for aesthetics?
Austin Morris
Should be nice, all that I opened up. Most Xiaomis have photos / videos of teardowns somewhere, go have a look.
Ayden Howard
Most phones aren't entirely safe against chipping / cracking from breast high drops or higher. And various screens might scratch at least a little.
Protectors can help. I don't see the point in buying any expensive ones though.
Gabriel Barnes
The LG G6 and OnePlus 5 are the same price right now. What are the pros/cons of these phones?
Ayden Barnes
What was the new/upcoming IP68 chink phone with a huge battery that was memed here couple weeks back? (Not oukitel.)
Elijah Long
>LG G6 bootloops
>OnePlus 5 upside down screen
Both shit.
Xavier Jenkins
what do you recommend, then?
Christopher Allen
LG G6 +IP68 water resistance +1440p display +MicroSD slot +small bezels +better rear cameras +OIS
OP5 +better performance +AMOLED display +more RAM +near stock ROM +better selfie camera +DASH charge
Don't listen to this guy, he's talking shit
Christopher Harris
S8 U11 XZP
Andrew Lee
>Best Buy is offering the Samsung Galaxy s8 at a $300 discount putting it in the same price range as a Moto Z Play Should I fall for it?
Zachary Cox
From what I've heard the s8 is fragile and doesn't have great durability, so I'd be aware of that.
Dylan Foster
Best place to get a Redmi Note 4?
Eli Hill
OnePlus 5 is fine. In fact it's on par with current flagships, maybe even (slightly) better. Other than it you have: >Xiaomi Mi 6 >Xperia XZ Premium >Galaxy S8+ >HTC U11
Yes >newer >more storage >more RAM As the other user said, it's fragile so if you drop your phone a lot for some reason you should get a protective case.
GearBest, probably. They always shill Xiaomi products.
Easton Carter
What country you in?
Christopher Adams
Why is Android so bad at giving battery information.
None of those percentage add up to 100%
Like what the fuck caused my battery to drop like that m
John Rogers
Only things drawing me away from OP 5 and to the G6 was the 1440p display and microSD slot. What makes you not recommend it specifically? From what I've read, boot loops aren't a major issue with it.
Luis Green
Hi, what cellphone has the best camera nowadays ? please (price doesn't matter)
Juan King
How to find out which tempered glass protector to buy? Amazon is shit in showing reviews, they just dump together the reviews from dozens of models.
Andrew Richardson
tempered glass is a meme. It still feels exactly like the cheap plastic protectors. Those might scratch, but you can just replace them a dozen times before you're even close to the price of a tempered glass one.
Colton Ramirez
Redmi Note 4 for 16 shekels. Get it or no? (I have an iPhone 4s on it's last legs)
Nicholas Jenkins
USA.
Anthony Johnson
Goddamn it, *160 shekels
Christopher Gray
Anything above 1080p is a meme and an unnecessary battery drain.
If price isn't an issue then buy a camera. Mobile cameras are all bad. If you want an all around good device with a great camera then pick one of the Sony phones, or a device with a decent optical zoom like Mi6.
You're just buying shit ones. I paid under $2 for mine and it's great, nothing like those shit plastic ones
Juan Young
You can probably get it cheaper than that
Jace Baker
Nexus 5x finally started bootlooping, couldn't handle the British summer.
Refunding it on amazon, do I get the same phone again (which is on offer £275, I paid £350... I wonder why?) or do I upgrade? If so, what are my choices for a similiar budget?
