Can I buy a gf from the chinks? My 3DPD gf is making me sad :(
Jack Baker
Murder her you idiot

Connor Lewis
Can anyone recommend cheap gf gift ideas? Lingerie, fun tinker toys, etc.
Robert Reed
How does the spinfits size compares to the Xiaomeme and KZ ones? I don't want to buy the wrong one.
Kayden Reed
I'm looking for a chink standing desk conversion, any good ones out there?
Hudson Rivera
Got this piece of shit today. It's small, lightweight, looks good, sound is good BUT >there are no volume buttons >the UI is horribly unintuitive Changing volume and songs is a pain. Will use it and will hopefully get used to it but I expected something better.
Andrew Rivera
But I love her.
Dominic Stewart
update the firmware
Jackson Diaz
The sound fucking sucks. It has no low end. Try A/B'ing with almost literally any other source and you'll see. Unless you have extraordinarily terrible headphones.
The handle is a good rubber (or rubberized plastic) and is very grippy for its size with a neat thumb ramp to help even more. The bit selection that came with it is weird but it uses common, standard loose bits that can be purchased in bulk from Ali. I plan to stick this in my EDC pouch with a modified selection of bits alongside a tiny bit Jackly electronics screwdriver to handle any possible EDC need I may ever have.
Justin Butler
>touch buttons absolutely fucking disgusting tiny drivers, you don't need to much to drive them
Christian Walker
I really hope it's a better camera
Brayden Allen
You don't need an amp for low impedance headphones (i.e. most headphones, especially small ones).
Blake Anderson
The CP800 are the ones that won't work
Elijah Watson
after trying 2-3 chinkshit players, I just got a used ipod and put rockbox on it.
chinkshit players are ALL JUNK and a total WASTE OF MONEY.
I own a lot of chinkshit but mp3 players and phones are absolutely the worst. they can't even match a 10 year ipod.

Ironically I had the exact opposite experience. My iPod is junk now.

Sebastian Thompson
normal people just use their phones which are all good enough for whatever shitty headphones you're willing to take out of the house
Alexander Bailey
The 4 flat head bits is what makes it weird.
Charles Watson
From last thread >Who did you buy it from? If you answer eternal team, Xiaomi online store or Fastcardtech you're fucked because those three sell refurbished phones as new
Different user but... Your fucking with me right? I bought my xioameme 4x through eternal team and the phone's been running perfectly as intended - no crashes or anything at all. Mine doesn't seem to have any problems but the fact that it may have been a refurbished model sort of bothers me. Only thing I noticed is that the phone box it was housed in was a little dirty in the bottom and the plastic cover it came fell off but the screen had no scratches.
Fuck, I should've originally went with HK Goldway. Why do I doubt myself to which correct store I have to buy from, ughhh
Leo Garcia
whats so junk about it? what did you replace it with? yeah, but I want something for jogging. ain't gonna jog with my $600 phone. also, I sometimes like to fall asleep with some classical music playing and have one earbud in my ear. again, ain't gonna do that with a phone.
Ryan Myers
After the update this thing is a bit better. I think I will get used to it. The sound is great compared to my old mp3 and it even has a microSD slot.
What is to tell about the battery life? How long could it last with average loudness?
Samuel Nelson
don't give him yous. just filter mentally ill people.
Jaxson White
>ain't gonna jog with my $600 phone lol >buys device that can do everything >still wants to buy device that only does one thing because reasons do you jog in the ghetto or something
Lincoln Allen
I don't use it anymore. It's just broken now (battery won't charge), I'm guessing from the failed mod. Still the audio isn't as good as my previous (chink) player.
Jayden Clark
as far as i know the only confirmed seller of refurbished phones is xiaomi only store. I also got mine from eternal team and works good.
Ian Collins
You'll be lucky if it lasts even 3 months.
Anthony Gray
you're retarded if you can't figure out reasons. post less, low IQ lardass.
Elijah Reed
I hope it doesn't last longer desu. Then I will buy a better one.
Jose Taylor
>all these dumbasses buying shitty chink electronics >tfw you can just buy something high-end up front and have a much better overall experience for the same price when you factor in the fact that chinkshit buyers have to buy two or three of them in the same time frame enjoy your garbage fucking lol, what a complete retard sorry you live in the ghetto, tyrone
Brandon Phillips
>It's just broken now (battery won't charge), I'm guessing from the failed mod thats not the fault of the player, is it... anyway, my used $40 ipod blows away anything chinks have come up with. maybe by 2025 they'll make a good player.... but I'm guessing not.
Luis Torres
had mine for a year, battery can last for 60 hours t.lithiuanian
Jackson Williams
I had a Shanling M2 before so everything except battery and rockbox is a straight downgrade. It was a pain to mod too and in the end I got a brick. Maybe I'll open it up again someday.
Jace Evans
Yeah, xioami online store is the only one I know so far but I was surprised eternal team was mentioned as well, I've read a couple of negatives feedbacks from eternal but most were software issues, missing packages or a few scratched areas on their phones
Glad I wasn't the one here who bought from eternal team. But hey, If it screws up it's on eternal
Isaac Lee
>rockbox same here. I would never buy a non-rockbox compatible player again. everything else is shit. chinks can make cheap hardware but their softwatre is always the biggest piece of shit ever. they should just make rockbox-compatible player or pay the rockbox devs to adapt their OS for some cheap chink chipset and just ship something with rockbox on it.
Kayden Sanchez
What happened to the sansa clip rockbox meme
Bentley Jenkins
>touch buttons
Works with inline remote so IDGAF.
Luke Morgan
Seems people don't care about the newer models.
I love my old Clip+
Sebastian Martinez
rockbox doesn't do hires so that defeats the purpose of any >$20 chink player. Newer ones even have bluetooth which is something I don't see rockbox supporting. They also have usb dac feature which is limited to usb audio class 1 on rockbox. For the average listener rockbox isn't all that useful, the most valuable feature is probably the audio effects (PEQ, stereo width, ...) clip is ded

Luke Powell
>rockbox lol let me guess you vape and use an android phone. FUCKIG LOSER
Adrian Cooper
my sansa clip+ lasted 6 months. it just died and nothing could be done. apparently battery monitor IC is known to die.
>hires what a scam. also, hires on a portable player is a total waste. even 128kbps mp3 is a waste for portable players.
Owen Wright
link plz
Gavin Cox
Same, still working flawlessly after like 3 years. Shame I bought a portable amp with it back then just do discover its output is good enough as it is, there is a small difference but not enough to justify the extra size and cost.
Alexander Adams
buy her a big black dildo and a chastity for yourself
sansa clips are too expensive now, they've been discontinued for too long
Justin Sanders
Can somebody explain why almost all audiophiles have a dedicated mp3 player with a dedicated headphone amp Like what is the whole point of it when I could just plug in my hifi headphones into a galaxy s8 and just enjoy some flacs? Do some mp3 players produce better/worse sound What is the whole point of amps when I barely even push my volume on the s8 in the first place. (Somewhere around 55-70db is my listening volume or like 25-45 of androids volume limit How much does it gonna change when I already have a cirrus logic and ess sabre hifi chip inside my s8 and laptop? Both can drive 4 to 600 ohm headphones and maybe plannar with the laptop but to poor to afford that :( Is it a inside joke by audiophiles or really a crucial thing that I missed?
Eli Lopez
The fact that you can output enough power to drive a pair of headphones doesn't mean it'll be a smooth output. Amps usually don't distort sound through their whole range unlike some cheaper devices. That being said most headphones have very low impedence so you can have decent quality even at ear bleeding levels.
Austin Rogers
Because I need my phone to be alive to use as a phone. The s8's battery is shit enough as it is without draining it playing music all day.
Noah Lewis
>s8 battery is shit My s8 doesn't agree and playing music doesn't even drain my battery by 1% with like 7 hours of soundcloud streaming. Check your battery usage by the device manager, should tell you what is power hungry. tip: turn off auto bright, it kills battery on every phone ever made.
The phone delivers really smooth output, a flat no pops, sizzles and cracks. I plugged in a lot of different headphones, from the cheapest chink headset to a expensive pair of akg's and snapheisers. Its so good that I can even drive bookshelf speakers from my headphone jack with no static noise or clicks. (I shit you not) So what is all the fuzz about cheap players having no bass and expensive sony's having super clear sound, what makes them special?
Alexander Phillips
Additional storage. My phone drives stuff just fine but it helps that my m2s has an additional 256GBs, and it also functions as a Bluetooth receiver and portable DAC. If I use EQ, my laptop no longer gets loud enough this necessitating a portable dac.
Asher Ross
I always use the highest quality format I can find, unless ofcourse its anime trash/future funk that is only uploaded to soundcloud and nowhere else. Sure I can listen to the master tape of pink floyd's money in 32bit 384khz but not to SLUMP GOD soundcloud.com/rickybobby-slumpgod/catch-me-outside Protip: There is no lossless version
Ryder Jenkins
But the s8 already does that, 256gb expandable, can be used as a receiver and portable dac. Lots of eq to mess around with and drives everything fine.
Asher Green
Few threads back someone posted a passable xbox one wireless clone, anyone get the link?
Jack Anderson
All I'm going to say is if you're putting charge cycles on your £400 phone instead of a £10 player to listen to music or podcasts for hours, you're doing it wrong.
Christian Jones
My phone has 256 expandable too, but you can always have more storage. Just depends on whether or not you need it. I didn't know the S8 had the receiver and DAC features, that's pretty cool.
Oliver Reed
The s8 isn't really a cheap phone so it makes sense they put in a decent quality dac/amp. For shelf speakers they usually come either with an integrated amp or have to be connected to an amp, there's no way you can drive them with a phone jack (especially because they don't have a phone jack input unless they have an integrated amp). What kind of snapheisers you're talking about? The HD600s would already be pretty heavy for a phone and if anything they'd drain your battery like crazy, I have a pair of 598s and they can be driven by pretty much anything too because they have low impedance.
It is not really a s8 feature but because such things are possible with android you can download apps that do all this crap for you. It is possible on every android phone that has the right hardware and software.

Huh, I didn't know that. I might look a lot more seriously at the LG V30 in the future.
Christopher Clark
I once cut a aux cord and stripped some of the wires, I connected it with the wires coming out of the cabinet and plug it directly in the phone. Not loud but what do you expect? 100 watts?
James Miller

Of course it is doable in some way, same way you can power all your home appliances with a portable generator and then complain it can't sustain all the load by itself.

I remember there was some user saying that you can get money back on your aliexpress purchases by using your own referral links. Is there any guide on how to do this?
David King
Just pay for the shit you buy, third world sub-human faggot.
Blake Diaz
Best way to pay on Aliexpresss without using my credit card directly?
Nathan Hernandez
Use a cashback site. Like topcashback.com, I think they give a relatevly high percentage, I've started using them recently. Signing up and using should be pretty straightforward. You get actual money a few months after the purchase.
If you want, you can use my referal link, /ref/hungryanon after the domain.
I'm not sure, but on some sites using referal link might give a bonus to you too, so you should probably find some referal link to sign up.
Oh yea, don't use your main email. They spam the shit out of you.
Logan Brooks
Temporary master card
Nicholas Cruz
Sounds like a deal, will he accept me?
Benjamin Garcia
I know cashback sites exist, but this user was saying you could purchase through your own aliexpress referral links to earn money back, without any cashback site (though you could use that in addition to get money back twice)
