what's the phone equivalent of thinkpad + lubuntu?
Oliver Lee
Fresh bread, nice
Maybe someone can help me decide for a new phone.
Currently have an S5 but it's getting 3slow5me.
Which phones are recommended by Sup Forums that have similar specs but are faster?
What I like about the S5 is
IP67
Expandable Memory
What I dislike is that it is branded attcrap as well as samsungshit on there and I couldn't bring myself to try and root it, so I had to live with this bs.
If there are any chinkphones you'd recommend in EU, that's fine with me too, since I'll visit soon.

Monitoring this, need something better than the default player especially on the lock screen. I want just pause, fwd, Rev buttons when locked since that's all I can keep track of while driving
Leo Clark
You can find S7 at this price.
Jose Cruz
Think I'll pull the trigger on the motor z2 force looks bretty great. thoughts?

Stop shitposting from your mom's phone, Billy. School started and it's time you took your grammar lessons.

>no front camera It literally doesn't exist user, give up.
Tyler Moore
Better cameras
>inb4 just get a real camera most people don't carry a camera with them everywhere they go, and as they say "the best camera is one you have with you"
Gabriel Baker
Okay so remove that "no front camera" from the list. Any suggestions?
Mason Watson
first for someone tell me the OP5 is a good phone so I don't feel insecure about my purchase

i don't take many photos either
i have an iphone 4 currently. camera is pretty good sometimes.
Blake Gomez
Well then you'd probably be fine with a budget or a midrange phone

Jaxon James
90s-Early 00s phones used to have it Some phones in the current years also have it
Gavin James
give one negative of it
Brayden Rivera
What are the Sup Forums approved phones? My ten year old NV3 died and they don't sell non-smart phones anymore. Jailbreaking and privacy options are a must. I'm in the US and will be using Verizon.
Grayson Stewart
P10 lite or G5+? Can get both for a similar price.
Aiden Lee
my v20 has it.
Christopher Morris
Easier for carriers to charge you more money than the phone itself because you wanted the thing now. Even if you still wanted it now, you could always save up a "new phone fund" and buy one whenever. You don't need an exact thing in mind to start saving for it.
Upgrade plans are still contracts, debt, and bills that you could avoid, but don't because you lack proper savings discipline and need your shiny rock now. Or are you going to say that having more bills and more debt is good?
Easton Foster
Any recently launched mid-range phone like the Mi A1 that will most likely have great custom rom support. By great support I'm thinking of the Nextbit Robin like where there are no major bugs in the OS,
Grayson Diaz
Forgot to add the attention grabbing pic.

What do you guys think about buying refurbished phones on ebay? The HTC 10 is up for like $150 and I'm in the market for a new phone but I want to spend the least amount posible.
Adrian Rogers
How does the Moto G5 Plus compare?
Zachary Reed
I use poweramp and It's perfect. It doesn't show lyrics tho
Ayden Perez
You serious? It's been known irl for ages. How young are you?
Cooper Smith
Breddy gudd, I've had mine for about 3 years now and it's way cheaper than buying new but you still get the warranty.
t. The guy from above looking for a replacement of his S5
Angel Roberts
The deal is that it's refurbished by the seller, not by HTC.
Logan Reed
Worse camera and update support
Mason Moore
Get a Mi Max 2 now or wait for MI7?
Luke Long
Xiamoi + LineageOS?
Ayden Martinez
Huh, is it an unlocked or is it the Sprint version? The only time I see HTC 10s that cheap is when it's a Sprint model
Nolan Robinson
I currently have an S5 running CM11 (I like the built in long press to skip tracks, and hate material design), but I'm looking to get a new phone, since the camera is shit.
Is the Xperia XA1 any good? Are any of the Xperia phones good? I know the older ones used to overheat on people.
John Collins
I conceded defeat and installed neutron. It works well but boy does the ui look shit. Any skinning? Also for that guy who uses it how much battery would you say it uses in the long run?
Zachary Clark
This is painful to watch. I would put them all in an oven if I could.
Alexander Gray
It is sprint. Is sprint bad? I've seen that it's relatively easy to unlock it.
Ian Cooper
what's the point in dual cameras? what purpose do they serve and how do they work?
Dominic Myers
one regular and one wide angle
Chase Turner
could you explain why? I don't get how that leads to better photos, does it auto detect which to use or something?
Robert Rodriguez
No I'm not serious.
Christopher Morales
I'm not sure if it will work on GSM LTE networks, I've heard something like you have to have a custom kernel or firmware flashed to them so the modem will pick up the LTE bands that it should pick up Apparently all versions are essentially unlocked but carrier specific start off as unlocked for all bands, but then specified to only work with said carrier's bands
i asked /spg/ for advice on a phone a month ago and go the lg x power. it's pretty good phone so far, only thing is that the speakers arent so good.
but i figured having a phone with long battery life and a dedicated bluetooth speaker will work out better in the long run.
can i get some recommendations for bluetooth speakers? i've looked at some, but i don't know anything about speakers, or music in general. i don't mind mediocre sound quality, since i'm not an audiophile, just really something that can get a bit load and listen to over the sound of a shower.
Ethan Perez
I have a bose mini soundlink, it's kinda expensive, but has great sound and will definitely be louder than your shower.
Luis Scott
Anker Sound Pro(?), Or something like that are damn good, check Amazon
Dylan Bell
JBL is good but pricey. Can withstand rough handling and battery is pretty good. Sounds great, bass is great.
Brandon Bailey
i don't need an expensive one. honestly, i expect the speaker to get lost or damaged at some point. anything over $50 would be a bit much.
i was looking at anker speakers, among others, but i can't get an idea of how high the volume can get from the reviews.
Isaiah Campbell
Alright, thanks for your input bro, you were really helpful.
Hunter Richardson
Pretty badly, it's $269 at BHphotovideo, ($299 for the 64gb one)
Jeremiah Miller
Even better, Newegg has the 64gb version of $279

Why are Oneplus phones not popular around here? They have killer price, fast as fuck and almost stock Android.
Jonathan Reed
iPhone SE as a budget replacement phone, y/n?
RIP HTC 10, you served me well.
Unfortunately I didn't really do anything with the screen size which makes me think actually using my thumb to access the entire screen without awkwardly bending my hand would be nice.
Jose Sullivan
No, why get it
Luis Bell
Im between a Google Pixel 32gb and a LG G6, what do? those are the two models available but Im having trouble deciding on wich one to choose.
Any user owns either of them that care to tell me how's their experience with it?
It will be my first "high end" phone since I've been using cheap phones for the last 4 years and I dont want to have any regrets
Logan Cruz
4 inch display with modern internal components
Also I've never really used iOS before so it might be fun to try something new.
Brody Carter
what anime?
Jonathan Gomez
I was happy with it until I lost it. The battery life was nice.
Jordan Brooks
What do you think was the biggest downside in day-to-day use?
Angel Hill
Debating between a Moto g5+ or an honor 8, pretty much the same price seeing that the honor 8 is selling for 269 atm, the software issues not that big a deal for me also
I do think the honor 8 looks nice as fuck and I can't help but not like the moto g5's looks too much.. also coming from a Nexus 5x I have a bunch of usb c cables I'd have to replace if I were to go Moto g5
Christian Watson
Honor 8 wins in performance and cameras, G5+ in battery life.
Is the battery life difference drastic though? From what I can tell it's the same size battery but the stronger chip uses more
If I can get through a full day with light-moderate use I'm happy with it, I always have some kind of access to a charger anyways
Thomas Ortiz
Honor 8 should be fine then, it does have fast charging too
Owen Price
Are there any websites to help choose your phone with the stuff you want? Android had a website like that but it isn't available anymore, are there any good alternatives?

I finally got my first phone /spg/ thanks for all of the advice and recommendations. I went with an s7 even though I wanted an edge. What are some must have apps for it and is there any sort of phone traker that I can use for it in case my phone is God forbid stolen or lost ?.
Nathan Foster
Thanks bros.
Christian Campbell
i have a m8 and its a hell of a beast, the 10 is probably much more better, i think it is a good phone
Brandon White
just get another htc 10, they are cheapear and a pretty good phones
Gavin Jenkins
flytube, adaway, lucky patcher for cloning apps, you got a great phone, congrats :)
Connor Clark
In theory Google has a service built in to track it but I'd recommend Cerberus which is paid
Brayden Rivera
google are jews, so as soon as pixel 2 drops they'll probably give to shits about the old pixel
Get the G6, at least you have guranteed updates
Lucas Nelson
What's the best cable for charging? I'm mainly going to use it for my galaxy note 4, and dualshock 4 controller
