is there a reason to get a Pixel now if it has about the same price as other current flagships?
Ryder Torres
1. Is this a good moment to buy a new phone? I feel like the technology advancement is slowing down, so, if I buy a decent phone now, it should last a few years. Do you agree?
2. Are golden phones girly?
Isaac Davis
>no Essential Phone Got to play with this today, shit's dope
Evan Edwards
Is the OnePlus 5 a good phone?
Mason Torres
I have a golden OnePlus 3t and I wouldn't say it's girly
Carson Bennett
No
Owen Young
>somewhat "meh" camera >no headphone jack Overall it's nice except those two flaws, I wish they would sell outside the USA so I could try or buy one
Benjamin Wright
WHEN IS THE MOTO G5S + RELEASING I'M USING A PIECE OF SHIT TRACFONE FUUUUUUUUCK
Wyatt Kelly
Will there ever be a phone as based as the nexus 6p?
David Brooks
What can be as based as a bootloop after using for year
Benjamin Lopez
>theverge.com/2017/8/18/16165040/essential-phone-review-android-andy-rubin >Now, the complicated part: a mere eight or so hours before we needed to publish this review, I got a software update for the camera that added a manual HDR mode. More importantly, the update improved image quality — in some cases drastically.
I'm taking current camera reviews with a grain of salt... Kinda doubt a lot of reviews bothered to go back after an update
Jackson Peterson
>Phone shuts off at 15-30% no
Evan Gray
nope
Bentley Adams
It's still way too early to judge, hopefully it turns out good, there isn't a vast choice of phone to buy right now My only complaint is the lack of an headphone jack
Christian Evans
In all honesty, who picks up a phone and bends it that way during regular use?
Luis Morales
>Non-removable battery.
Sounds like the opposite of based to me.
Carson Carter
not that exactly but the phone is fragile and that's a real issue
Gabriel Morales
The Pixel 2 is very close so it's honestly worth waiting and if it doesn't interest you, you can probably get a deal on the original at that point.
Jason Gutierrez
OP5 or S8?
S8 is roughly $150 more than the 6gb OP5.
Cameron Edwards
Neither unless you're a masochist
Adam Thomas
I always take camera criticisms with a grain of salt. I know everybody has different uses but most phone cameras are pretty good and reviewers are nitpicking hard.
As for the headphone jack. I hate to see it go but at least the essential is giving super thin bezels in return. The next pixel is likely gonna be bulky and remove the jack :/
Noah White
I wouldn't say you're correct
Asher Cruz
>The next pixel is likely gonna be bulky and remove the jack :/ At least it's got big front-facing speakers now
Benjamin Myers
If money isn't an issue I say S8.
I love my S8 more than any phone I've used. My only real complaint is no IR blaster. Otherwise it's great, I like it more than the G6 or the V20 for sure.
Blake Evans
Essential Phone or the Galaxy S8? Or should I wait to see what Apple has to offer?
Benjamin Thomas
Essential or iPhone
Robert Johnson
What do you suggest then
Robert Moore
True but with as much money google is playing with and probably asking for, you'd think they could trim the phone down just a bit.
I don't even really care much about size that much but if I'm losing shit like the headphone jack I expect something in return at least.
Carson Evans
It's water resistant and that squeezy thing might be cool
Dylan King
Go for the S8, micro sd is a deal breaker for me.
Landon Ramirez
I wish manufacturers would release phones with no front screen
Xavier Morgan
I meant to say no front camera*
William Perry
The essential phone will be a shit meme compared to the S8. Won't have a memory card slot, won't be water resistant, likely have a worse camera, likely have a best equal battery life.
iPhone is even worse with no memory card slot, no headphone jack, no ability to torrent, no time manager, ect.
Just get a S8. People are hyping it because it's actually a good phone.
Matthew Murphy
Seconding this. I still might just get the G5+ but it's worth waiting for the price drop regardless.
Eli Barnes
Why? If it's for privacy reasons then you shouldn't use a smartphone to begin with.
William Diaz
How long does it usually take CM/LOS to pick up a new Android version?
Leo Lee
The S8 is literally a polished turd and that polish wears off eventually.
Jonathan Davis
Squeezy thing is interesting but there are already tons of gesture controls out there and one more while nice isn't really a selling point.
Water resistant is nice but I don't desperately need it like some people who screech about it. Just don't dunk your phone in water and you're most likely fine.
Henry Gray
so that the entire front face can be a screen. front cameras should be optional
Carson Scott
Why would you not put a case on it though?
Even if you're not clumsy, other people around you are and there's a risk of it dropping and breaking regardless.
Jayden Morris
will they ever fix android's horrendous touch latency
Aaron Diaz
no
Carter Gonzalez
I've never noticed it, does it really exist?
Bentley Jones
Give me one good reason to upgrade from my 3 yr old lgg3 running xenonhd with no gapps
Christopher Rogers
You'll have a phone capable of running gapps without lag.
William Perry
But i dont want to be a part of the botnet
Grayson Davis

Aiden Hernandez
I have the 3 and it's excellent
Cooper Watson
I want to know if I can unlock the bootloader on my honor 8 and keep my warranty? On my lg g4 I could unlock it and keep the warranty I live in Germany and therefore it was regulated by lg and I want to ask if huawei/ honor did the same in Germany
Kayden Perry
>no ability to torrent But iTransmission exists. >no time manager What do you mean by "time manager"?
Jeremiah Sullivan
If someone could post a link to buy a redmi note 4 or 4x I would be most thankful
John Sanchez
bought me a OP5 how long will it take me to regret this decision?
Elijah Butler
Should I get S8 or S8+? Not talking about money.
Jaxson Edwards
S8+ international version or US? US version is a lot cheaper. What about battery life?
Tyler Howard
Lg G6 yes or no ?
Luis Edwards
lmgtfy
William Morgan
wait for v30
Noah Jenkins
Twelve minutes Yes International. Good Bootloops - yes. Satisfaction - no
Gavin Sanders
Looking for purchasing afvice: From ireland Carrier doesnt matter too much as long as it fits the specs and requiremetns Requitements: supports android 6 and above, at least 2gb of ram and must be bigger than 5 inches. Budget 300 euro
Aiden Young
Did you just copy all the news from some old thread? All the articles are dated 4-5th August.
It's hard to beat the OnePlus 3T at that price point. Has everything you wanted and good software support. Great camera too
Jayden Hill
about to buy Samsung A3 2017, any better alternatives? Is Iphone much better security wise?
Kayden Powell
Did you seriously copy the news from 2 weeks ago? dumbass.
Hudson Cruz
Why buy Android phones when the majority don't get regular security updates and none at all after three years?
Easton Adams
>hair color communists discussing phones, the irony.
Hudson Morgan
good choice own a midnight black running lineage it's literally perfect. Also tits please you are hot.
Christian Sanders
Yes iPhone isn't cucked by custom firmware from mobile operators. iOS is has a longer lifespan in terms of updates on a new phone.
Cameron Gonzalez
but I fucking hate apple. Also - would buy a phone from a shop, so no operator bullshit, just samsung bloatware
Christian Bailey
Me too but Android you've just got to accept you are a walking botnet.
Landon Garcia
Because Apple phones are ridiculously expensive, Windows on phones is pretty much dead, and all the popular apps are on Android.
Also, you can root Android phones and install Lineage on them if they are supported.
Justin Adams
Will rooting or installing a custom rom on a redmi note 4 void the warranty?
Julian James
What's a proper Nougat ROM for the Note 4 N910F? LineageOS does not officially support it and I don't want to install a pajeet unofficial version that'll (probably) brick my phone.
Any suggestions?
Daniel Gomez
Fuck off whore Same fag
Angel Smith
Pixel, Nokia 8, OnePlus 5, OnePlus 3T or S8?
Andrew Cook
Anything better than Nokia 5 for Nokia 5 money. Main focus is build quality and battery life.
Eli Parker
fuck... thanks user
Benjamin Perez
Check what Oukitel has around that price, they have fantastic build quality.
Elijah Carter
Xiaomi redmi note 4
Jason Davis
S8 if you have the money, OP5 if you don't
Carson Reed
Any rugged phones
Thomas Cook
XZ premium, S8 or wait™ for the XZ1
Hudson Long

I got a Sony XA1 for £238 a few months ago but my clumsy ass broke it.
Is there anything with better hardware for that size and price range that doesn't look ancient or like a clone, or do I just get another XA1?
Brody Perry
>tfw qt Arab girl from uni always mirin my S8 >always asks to hold it Feels good. Just wish it didn't elongate Snapchat memories when I send them
Josiah Price
Just go with the S8
Isaiah Diaz
It's been good to me so far. I downsized from a nexus 6p and I feel like the p10 is the perfect size for a phone. Sort have been spoiled on stock android though but one you find a nice launcher and uninstall some of the bloat you should be good to go.
Some things to note, the sound surprised me. It's clear and doesn't sound tinny. I do miss the 2 front facing speakers though but it's just something to get used to. Also the display is absolutely gorgeous with very nice colors! I don't feel like I'm losing much coming from the amoled screen on my 6p. What I will say though is that mine has a yellow tint towards the bottom of the screen but thankfully you can adjust the colour temperature to hide it. Not that big of a deal to me but it's worth a mention.
You can hide the navigation bar and use the fingerprint reader in its place which is enjoyable. You can go all day with the battery and it lasts longer than the 6p. The main selling point of the phone is the camera and I'm sure you're already aware but it's fantastic. I'm too stupid to know how to fully use it yet though, there's a lot of messing with the camera settings. I don't really know what else to say about it, it checks all the boxes, looks pretty and haven't run into any major issues. It's a great phone
Isaac Martinez
So I've done a clean install and I want to customize. But I know nothing about what I can do, exactly. Is there a good starting point/general information about android customization?
Jackson Perez
Check out /wg/, there are phone customization threads.
For starters though, I'd say download Nova Launcher and some icon packs from the play store
Liam Perry
What's a good phone that fits these requirements? >Under 300 eurosheckels >great battery life, should last around a day >decent camera >great LineageOS support >at least 32 GB of internal storage >doesn't shatter if it touches the ground(not that I drop my phone daily, but still).
Henry Campbell
Gonna check out wg. Why nova launcher?
Asher Green
Did you like the XA1? If so, just get another one and don't break it.
Andrew Perry
Dogee mix ? Yay or nay ?
That or Redmond note 4
Luis Morgan
