Thinking about getting the Meizu M6 Note. Convince me for or against it
Jackson Scott
Buy it and review it please. It seems so good, no real bad sides to it. (maybe Flyme)
Tyler Taylor
Repostin from previous thread: what phone should I get my mom?
>Decent camera (she likes to take pics) >Doesnt need to be a top tier phone (she's 50, not gonna rice it or anything) >Budget about 200€, preferably less
uhm, that's about it really. A phone with a decent camera for a woman who's just gonna use it for whatsapp, facebook and candy crush. Xiaomi Mi A1 has been suggested and looks like a good candidate, but if you've any cheaper recomendations im all ears
Ryan Torres
You can find offers for the A1 and it's totally the one I'd recommend too.
Isaiah Hall
The Mi A1 is the best option. If you want a different phone conside the Moto G5/S or Plus or the Meizu M6 Note mentioned above, but that's a bit chinese softwarewise (not bad, just different).
Samuel Morales
Is there a decent phone that's £100 or less that's compatible with lineageos or any other rom?
Are you ready for Xiaomi to end the mid-tier market?
Adrian Bailey
the note 8 does the meme glass better.
can't wait for the s9 to come out and destroy apple
Gavin Nelson
Note 8 is an overpriced s8+ with a sytlus
Brody Cooper
Thinking of getting a V20. It's $400 approx here. Will it be a good buy now considering it needs to last me atleast 2years to come.
Parker White
xiaomi isn't especially good with cameras they're alright but really nothing special
Jaxon Wright
sorry if this is a stupid question but I'm looking at kimovil.com and, for example, they show Xiaomi A1s for 170 and 180€ when they're usually 230. Is there a catch?
Michael Price
>they're usually 230 yes, 230 dollars
John Cook
Does anyone here buy old cellphone/smartphone lots on ebay just to tinker with?
Nathaniel Harris
is this a meme or is there any actual benefit over an aosp based rom?
lazy question: other than the camera, are there any major differences between redmi note 4x and mi a1? same proc, same amount of ROM and RAM afaik but the former is almost half the price of a1
Jackson Kelly
Bought a mi A1 from gearbest for 180€ (with coupon).
Great phone, would recommend to everyone.
Matthew Russell
How's the huwei mate 10? It looks appealing but for the same price range I could get Galaxy S8. What do you think?
Carter Kelly
Stock Android, USB-C and 3000mah battery on Mi A1. MIUI, MicroUSB and 4100mah on the RN4X.
>almost half the price the 4gb/64gb Note 4 is around $160-180, Mi A1 is $200-230, hardly half is it

Kayden Kelly
What's the absolute best phone in the world right now?
Also, what are the best phones for 200$, 500$, 700$, and 1000$?
Anyone has this kind of information?
Gabriel Torres
Spotted an LG V30 in the wild lads.
Noah Butler
Muh 5t
Parker Jackson
should i buy a redmi note 4x now? is it currently about 140€ in my euro shithole, could the price drop further after the note 5 release?
Ayden Taylor
This. Someone answer this man.
Been eyeing the V20 for a while since I don't feel like dropping $800 on the V30 for an extra year of futureproofing.
Ethan Ward
Xiaomi Mi A1
Lincoln Bailey
what store? mediamarkt, euro?
Austin Brooks
Saturn in Warsaw.
Michael Clark
i would wait
Parker Diaz
No custom ROM support for that model yet.
Robert Ramirez
Iphone 5 owner here Is it retarded for me to wait until next year to see if an iphone SE2 is released? Or is there an ultracompact android eqquivalent? >inb4 iGoy I prefer the apple botnet over the google botnet
Juan Richardson
Any good lockscreen apps? i'm stuck with touchwiz and there's no xposed module that supports JB
Anthony Peterson
The question is: can you wait? Because I would if your phone is working OK for you.
Luke Robinson
Works fine. Just use for texting and occasional web browsing or checking emails. Only 1 screen of apps.
Elijah Carter
Then I would wait if I was in your place.
Nicholas Reed
Thoughts on the Moto X4/HTC U Ultra/BlackBerry Motion? anybody have one here?
Justin Peterson
Upgrading from a Galaxy S5, on Cricket in US. Any reason I shouldn't buy an unlocked LG G5 (RS988)?
I think I've narrowed down to just this because I want an unlocked bootloader, sdcard slot, and removable battery. I plan to play around a lot with custom ROMs. It's slightly larger than I want, but I think I can deal with that.
I was also looking at the Moto G5 which seems to have all those requirements, but for coming out a year later than the LG G5 the specs look far inferior across the board.
Are there any other models I should be considering?
Luis Thomas
The Xperia X1 Compact is pretty good fom what I've heard but I personally can't stand Sony's rom plus the camera is guaranteed to be disappointing on a Sony phone. If your current phone is starting to get slow you could always find a used iPhone SE for under 200 bucks and wait for potential SE2.
Cameron Myers
Xperia XZ1 Compact*
Thomas Campbell
LG G5 has a lot of hardware issues
William Lewis
i still see massive borders
Luke Miller
God damnit. What does that leave me, then?
Robert Mitchell
Similar to you desu, still using an old xperia zr and it's slowly falling apart and right now I'm trying to decide between iphone SE and xz1 compact. Xperia is far more expensive than the iphone in this case but I used android my whole life and I might miss some apps, especially since I use fdroid.
Cameron Ross
Either get something with a non-removable battery or keep the S5. I wouldn't consider the Moto G5, it isn't much of an upgrade over the S5.
Juan James
Is the lenovo p2 going to continue getting updates?
Benjamin Morgan
also apparently the xz1 compact has a camera distortion effect which is a shame considering the price.
Hunter Martinez
that got fixed in an OTA
Leo Foster
enjoy the burn in
Jaxson Myers
Just got my PH-1, Anyone know of the reccomended Camera App since the one on here is shit?
Justin Scott
I'm not sure I can tolerate not being able to swap batteries... How significant are the hardware issues? How common?
Parker Cox
I rarely use my camera. If a camera can take thumbnails it's all good. Current SE isn't much of an upgrade, patience may be a virtue here.
Thomas Garcia
Smaller Pixel's display isn't even from the same manufacturer as the XL's.
Gabriel Gutierrez
What android launcher
Wyatt Phillips
GPS not working properly, power / volume buttons breaking, LCD burn-in, bootloops etc. Maybe LG's QC is better now but I wouldn't recommend buying one without a warranty.
Dominic Sanders
there's a google camera port that works well on essential. it's designed to have very low shutter lag and improved HDR, and it goes a long way to making using the camera a lot better.
Just bought a samshit j5 pro How much did I fuck up?
Ethan Miller
Lawnchair.
Free and open source.
Luis Johnson
thanks brah
Grayson White
Does leaving bluetooth and wifi on while not connected use much battery? iPhone's retarded new toggles don't actually turn them off and I can't be arsed to go through settings every time.
would the V30's DAC make a difference if I really only listen to music in my car? Pixel is looking more enticing as I realize that I wont be using half the V30's hardware features
Chase Wright
God damnit! Thanks, bro
Jonathan Kelly
DO NOT BUY, it bootloops
Kevin Lopez
Is that display 18:9? I'm not liking this meme.
Sebastian Rodriguez
My Meizu Pro 7 Plus just arrived today and to be honest I really like Flyme so far.
Going to do a more thorough review soon though once I've used it more, but in this short time I've used it it's become my favorite Android skin so far.
Grayson Lee
>Redmi 5 plus What?
Why does it matter? A sane person would use a screen protector regardless.
Adam Bell
Should I pick up the Essential phone?
Grayson Walker
Forgot pic
Luis Walker
darn! What's a good alternative? It has to work on total wireless's network because that's our family plan (I know, it's a shit network with CDMA trash necessary through verizon) and that makes it hard to find a phone that isn't a ripoff and is compatible. I want something with a headphone jack, and something with some power. My normie family refuses to switch plans. I looked into the HTC 10, but it's out of stock or selling for full price from verizon for th evreizon compatable model, and I looked into the OP5, but it isn't fully compatible with CDMA networks. Am I just fucked? Isn't there anything T.T. So tired of not having a usable phone desu...
Andrew James
Ok what the fuck is causing google services to go way up?
Last three days of Oreo have been the same type of usage, now today it acts up and its dying within 3 hours.
Joshua Jackson
Botnet
Jose Gomez
Things I've been using consistently in the last three hours have been Keep, Maps/Waze, and Google Music. But, these are things I always use, and yesterday had 5 hrs SOT from the same exact apps + more.
Caleb Brooks
New chipsets are pretty efficient. Leaving bluetooth and wifi on should have very little impact on battery life. I wouldn't worry about it.
Easton Foster
Never heard of Huawei, but I've been looking at the Honor 8.
What are some other sub $400 phones should I consider if I'm just looking for some basic services? At most I use my phone for a few cheap mobile games, YouTube, and internet browsing.
ok, how bad is it actually if this is the support I get with it:
Adrian Reyes
I have some questions about Xiaomi Redmi Note 4. Which color is the best? Can choose black, gray and gold. Black looks the best but gray seems pretty okay too and I heard that fingerprints are very visible on black. What about case? Is it mandatory and if yes, which kind?
Anthony Sullivan
Black is always the best in a smartphone. As for cases, I use a Nillkin case for my Mi Note 2 and it feels great.
Any good Xperia Z1 Compact ROMs with good camera and stable performance?
Andrew Martin
Check XDA
Ethan Torres
Alright, thanks. Still drives me nuts that someone at Apple thought this was a good idea.
>Toggling a switch to "off" doesn't turn it off
Ryan Jones
S8+/Note 8 vs. Pixel 2 XL vs. LG V30
All are on sale now and I desperately need to upgrade.
Please explain your reasoning.
Aaron Bennett
Any chinkphone with a decent camera at around $400/€340? With that much I can buy lightly used Galaxy S7/LG G6's. They have their issues though.
Should I fall for the G6 wide angle meme? Pic related from leddit.
Grayson Thompson
Is the 6gigs of RAM even worth it over 4?
Colton Price
Every chinkphone I read about in that price range always mentioned the camera being OK in daylight conditions but horrible in low light.
Ryder Johnson
If you really want to shut it off out of principle you can use either Airplane mode or going actually under settings to shut them off.
Jose Harris
Pixel, the other two will start to lag within a month of use
Gavin Miller
Thanks for the input. I guess the main reason I'm put off from the pixel 2 is the lack of expandable storage and a few minor things.
I've noticed the pixel has a lower CPU clock rate and two gigs less RAM than the S8. Would this be noticeable if I was to be using it mostly for emulating, programming and a fuckload of multi-tasking?
I'm also noticing the S8 supports faster wireless speeds. I have fiber internet and wifi, will I notice any decrease in speed over the S8?
Thanks again for your time. All three options are 300$ off until the 8th so I need to obsess as hard as I can on the best option.
Sebastian White
Oh, also.
Screen and speaker qualities compared between them all? I watch a lot of movies and Netflix as I try to fall asleep.
