How is the Redmi Note 4? Is it usable for a tech illiterate?
Ian Smith
first for xiaomi mi a1 the new nexus
Julian Evans
>Snapdragon 617 >2600mAh >Chinese market only it's crap
Nathaniel Bell
How long will we still be plagued by camera bumps. Like damn just make the phone 2mm thicker
Logan Garcia
Get a Moto G5 and avoid Xiaomi, too many bugs in MiUi.
Evan Martinez
No get a g5 plus miui is aids
Landon Perry
it's fucking great don't listen to the shills
kill yourselves
Connor Martin
>$0.01 has been deposited into your Xiaomi ShitShill® account, rajeesh!
Bentley Lewis
enjoy your ridiculously inaccurate display on that gay5 plus
Benjamin Cooper
>62298270 >The only difference seems to be more ram (1G) and longer battery life and water resistance, microsd slot, better camera, better performance >Water resistance Im not that autistic to drop my phone in a lake >Microsd slot Seriously? The S6 doesn't have one? >Better camera The s7 seems to have a better camera, gsm arena shows it >Better perfomance Yeah it's going to run better, I arleady said it has more ram
Anybody else with experience with these phones? Im talking about the galaxy s6/s7, is it worth the upgrade?
Carter Ross
QUICK MY PHONE(iPhone SE) DIED AND I ABSOLUTELY ONE FOR WHATSAPP (because everyone in my global team uses it and it's free). >must have an ok battery, will last 1 day of heavy use and 2 days of moderate use >music all throughout the day >pictures also, I go to different beaches almost every week >no vidya gaems >don't care if newest flagship or not I want to stick with iOS because my experience with Android was horrible, my old Zenfone 2 was a bitch.
Next week will be the actual launch of the next iPhone right? Should I just get a 6s now? I doubt there will be a price drop for the 7, and if there is, it wouldn't be huge. Actually, I have no clue about their pricing because this is my first time looking at phone prices after I got my SE.
Jason Thomas
>The s7 seems to have a better camera shit, I meant the s6, the s6 has a better camera despite being older.
Matthew King
Average consumer don't care about shit like this.
Julian Perry
yes they do, maybe not consciously but show them an iPhone 7 and the display obviously looks better than on a shitdroid
Kevin Morgan
The regular 6S has shit battery life, get another SE or a 6S+
Jordan Bell
Well fuck me then, being always outdoor I think the IP67 certification makes the deal for me.
All sites seem to point out that on the spot at launch day, previous flagship drops price by 100usd, should I count on that? It's actually my birthday on the 12th as well.
Angel Young
Im talking about samsung phones not apple kek Sorry for being unclear
Angel Phillips
I have the Galaxy S6 active. I'm not a power user by any means, but it's done everything I've used it for without any issues.
My biggest complaint is that there's only 32GB internal storage, and yes, no SD card slot. I don't think the battery is removable either. The only slot it has is a single SIM slot, and otherwise, you're stuck with it as it is.
I'm looking to get a new phone, but really just for more storage.
David Carter
Huawei p8 Lite 2017 edition or Huawei Nova Smart? Which one is the best choice? Especially for the photos (the processor looks better in the P8 Lite, but the camera looks better in the Nova Smart). I've seen that there is 1 MP of difference in the main camera, but there is also anything that changes in the lens or any other shit? I don't give a fuck about the front camera.
Luis Anderson
yeah as a person thats looking to shoot 4k videos and load up a shitload of emulators this phone doesn't appeal to me, shame because its cheap in my country.
Isaac Collins
Nova smart is just a rebranded Honor 6c. Get the P8 lite 2017, it has more RAM, better SoC, 1080p, and a better camera.
If you can get the P10 lite even better.
Logan Stewart
Want to get zte zmax pro or xiaomi mi max 6.44 w. snapdragon 652
Michael Hall
So it's better even if it has a lower resolution? Why, it's the lens or the software maybe?
Aiden Williams
Megapixels don't mean shit. it has a newer, better sensor.
Nicholas Cooper
Nice, thank you.
Jaxon Sanders
new meta for android apps when?
Brandon Ortiz
Just got my G6 from chinkland. What should I get to rice it up? Should I buy Nova Prime for £4?
Benjamin Kelly
Just download the apk.
Thomas Clark
Sorry. I mean if you're going to get Nova Prime, just download the apk. As for the recommendation, depends on what you want really.
Gavin Wright
I'm looking to upgrade from my Galaxy S5. I'm on verizon and I'm trying to stay around or under $500. The LG G6 is what I've been leaning towards but I'm wondering what my other options are.
Zachary Russell
What is the cheapest smartphone you can possibly buy?
can't beat getting a great deal on a used phone. but be careful because the used phone market is rife with scams, rigged auctions, and normies who are paying too much for old shit. and the screen will probably be scratched.
if you're looking for a brand new phone, redmi 4a or redmi note 4 are good if you have the budget for them.
Oliver Hill
>Sony announced they won't produce compact phones anymore Why phone manufacturers hate
Robert Martin
?? they just released the XZ1 compact.
Carson Diaz
Because the android's final form is a computer replacement, Pc's and androids alike will die out, they will be replaced by a combination of these two, all sings point in this direction.
Jeremiah Campbell
After more than two years of good use, my 2nd gen Moto X is finally doing that stupid shit where the battery just dies off at 50%, sometimes it also overheats like hell and starts draining like mad, so I'm looking for something new
Are the 4th and 5th gen of Motos any good? I loved my Moto X. It was super basic but incredibly snappy and fast compared to what I had before (the famously bloated Galaxy S3). I'm looking for something similar to what I currently have, preferably with a big battery size. I don't any intensive apps or anything, just twitter and spotify/poweramp and would like for it to last a whole day. I don't care about the camera or the speakers. Headphone jack is a must.
I'm from Brazil and my budget is around R$800 to 1000. I'm willing to give a chinkphone a try but I'm not sure of how long they last, I need the phone to survive for at least two years.
Joshua Gray
Get the Moto G5+. the vanilla G5 ain't worth it.
Camden Perry
Feels good that I'm not a handlet
Nathan Wood
how is the vanilla g5 not worth it?
James Carter
>SD430 >2GB RAM
Jayden Reyes
Anyone using wired headset with newer android phone?
On my HTC M8 the delay when I use the press the headsets play/pause button until the device responds is significant. It's around 2.5 seconds.
Googling the problem gives nothing for newer devices, so I'm wondering if the problem have bin eliminated?
Brandon Campbell
There's also a 3gb ram version
Michael Rogers
>paid R$1500 for a Moto X2 after the 3rd gen was already a thing >Moto G5+ is around R$1000 That's... way cheaper than what I was expecting. I'm not sure of what deal with the devil Motorola struck with this, but I'm pleased
Watched and read a few reviews and it seems to be what I'm looking for, just an upgraded version of what I had before. Apparently the camera still sucks but I'm used to that already (took both of these in the same day, one under natural sunlight and another with my bedroom's shitty lamp later at night)
Some reviews mentioned the battery not lasting an entire day but I guess no phones can actually do that so I'll grab a chink $20 powerbank for emergencies and deal with that
Thanks a lot for the recommendation
Easton Baker
>Have xiaomi redmi note 3 (snapdragon of fucking course) >Installed a year ago CyanogenMode 13, android 6.1 on it. >too fucking lazy to update >a year later, now, it starts showing me 'system process isn't responding, close it [Wait/Ok]? >it starts freezing and bootlooping every now and then >every time it does I go into TWRP recovery and recover a backup I made a long time ago >now suddenly it hasn't done the freeze anymore in a while, but I was in the process of finally downloading a new ROM. It won't go into recovery >the TWRP logo shows up but it just stays there for 30 seconds then the phone vibrates and I see the mi logo again, it boots into regular mode. I have full root, and obviously bootloader is unlocked. I tried to re-flash twrp using the 'official twrp app' but no dice, problem persists. Even when flashing to previous twrp version using that app. Also how do I flash ROMs onto my phone without using recovery but using root priv?
Henry Garcia
Is it the 4/64 version? if it's the 2/32 version it's not worth it.
Nope, 2/32. Apparently the 4/64 version isn't even available down here, damn. This really threw a wrench in my plans
Noah Jenkins
thanks bruh. I assume I'll be losing root and recovery, right?
Aaron Johnson
I think there's a 3/32 version as well, see if you got it. I personally wouldn't buy a 2GB RAM phone in but see if there's something else around that same price point.
Connor Flores
Yeah but at least you'll have a working phone. you can try installing LineageOS too.
Andrew Hernandez
oh shit I just looked and I thought you linked me miflash. this xiaomitool looks interesting. ty again
Michael Evans
Saudades Moto G1 + headphone bluetooth por 500 reais. Moto G line ain't budget anymore.
Jonathan Sanchez
Nope, not available officially either, but it's easy to find on our bootleg ebay
The 4/64 has one single listing cause someone bought it in the US but didn't use it. I'm tempted to grab it, but I don't want to make a sudden decision
Brayden Phillips
Well, it's as budget as it gets. You either spend R$2000+ for the big guns or get a shitty LG under R$700 and deal with all its problems for two years
Josiah Perez
Apparently it does TWRP too, give it a try.
Jeremiah Carter
I know, i have the regular G5. I honestly don't mind 2GB RAM because i don't play games or bloat my phone with "antivirus" shit and it's almost stock. Anyways the Z2 Play was 1300 like a couple days ago so I'd put 300 reais more and grab that instead of the G5+
Hudson Torres
>Anyways the Z2 Play was 1300 like a couple days ago Where? All listings I see are 1700+ with the exception of Kabum for 1500
Easton Jackson
Why are you buying phones and not lurking hardmob's promoções room? Fool.
Jacob Nguyen
You didn't answer my question Also, I've been "buying a phone" for the past hour or so (because my old one did that overheat thing so I had to turn it off while I was texting someone)
Jayden Gomez
Best US budget phone for $200?
I don't care to buy used. I don't care about battery life. I don't care about waterproofing. I don't care about camera or screen size,
All I care is that it browses the internet. And can play mid level games with no hiccup.
Talk me out of selling a fraction of my cryptos and buying a Note8 right now
Dominic Anderson
>but you're too poor Well, yeah, that's why I'm buying a budget phone and not a Galaxy S8 Plus Advance Championship Edition
William Clark
Where does one go to learn about different roms for their model of phone and about basic ricing? Not asking to be spoonfed, but a link or two would be nice.
Evan Evans
This thread made me desire a Huawei phone: What do you guys recommend that's at least mid-range?
Chase Brooks
S8 is on sale for 548 Pounds in Britbongland. Think it's a good deal? Really need a new phone. Price isn't an issue; i just want one that will last
Brandon Price
Good band 4 or 2 es (4g) chink phone? That's not zuk or xiaomi note
Brandon Jenkins
P9 P10 Lite Honor 6x Nova/Nova Plus P8 lite 2017
Noah Brooks
Thanks for the quick answer. However you didn't check the bands
Adrian White
Just for verification, there is no good tempered glass screen protector for Curved/Edge phones right? I have a Note 8 and want to get one, but pretty much every single source says that they're fucking trash in some way or another, either because they have air pockets in the middle or they pop out when used with certain cases.
I thought the "wet application" ones would solve it, but I'm seeing nothing but shitty reviews about how the sensitivity takes a shit and you really have to tap the phones. That's on top of applying some weird ass liquid on your phone.
Aiden Gonzalez
How are xperias? I have an HTC one m7
Joshua Cooper
raw dogging >
if you can't afford to risk using an expensive phone without protection get a mi 6 for half the price
Eli Nelson
Anyone else here waiting for livermorium to deliver?

William Thompson
Don't get chinked, retard! Buy either the A5 2017, Z Play or Z2 Play. t. bought the A5 about 2 weeks ago for 1170 on Americanas.
Search your phone on pajeet-developers.
>willingly getting chinked
Connor Jackson
Guys, what are the best that i can buy with 400$?
Angel Howard
samsung A5 2017 Xiaomi a1
Daniel Ramirez
Hey /spg/
What ROMs would you recommend to try ? I've only used Android stock (HTC Dream, Nexus 4, Nexus 5X) and I prefer something simple.
Are you willing to get a chinkphone who will soon fall apart?
Sebastian Jackson

Cameron Rivera
What's a good Google Maps replacement?
Colton Bell

Henry Allen
Samshit is too expensive and bloated. Not my fault Chinese brands go after the best-bang-for-your-buck market.
Justin Wright
What kind of features on the others ROMs make them worth ?
Robert Sanders
Moto Z Play Moto Z2 Play
It's a expensive and fragile toy that does nothing for you a cheap phone doesn't. It doesn't improve your life in any way. It will only fill you with guilt and regret afterwards.
