I was using those tutorials to set it up but it kept timing out at 90% I just it working now. This cleaning route/ map of my house is really neat. Best $280 I've sent in a long time. You all have to get a robot vacuum.

Did you get the first version or the second version with the wet mop?

Banggood 10$ discount on items over 100$ (I think), no way I'm gonna use them, feel free to use them if you were gonna buy stuff there.

First version

I know csg is slower than before but I appreciate you making new threads because the rest of us are lazy fucks.

>see pair of headsets on light in the box for $20~
>check ebay and see the same headphones for $11
Reminder to always check ebay for the same product.

Is the Ulefone T1 a good chinkphone?

What's the cheapest chinkiest bluetooth speaker?

s.aliexpress.com/nIruaAFF

One that says "entah dah bwoo tooce" when you turn it on.

Will I fail into a sold idea here with the phone capabilities and processing power today?

Will I end up with team viewer on my pc to take onenote ... notes in a proper way, yet not a proper way but portable.

Or will phone apps suffice, although I bet they're all clouded and provide too little features.

All this said should I say fuck it and waste a lot of money for me right now on mi 7 - mi 6 tier phones or just go with a cheap 200 - 250 max or even cheaper USD with an redmi or something around that, which offers just enough power for same apps anyway but won't suffer on paying too much money for that...

So I would really like to make a very cheap purchase in that direction to satisfy me for a decent amount of time.

I got one for my sister and she seems happy enough with it. She says the camera has trouble focusing but she's a retard so it might just be her.

Did she get the 64GB or 128GB?

please do the needful

64. It has a microSD slot but it's with the second sim, so you have to choose.

Are the Sandisks Fit going around on aliexpress legit? Interested on the 128gb one.

Ignore retarded filename.

Nice, thanks user

Why so many?

What's everyone waiting for?

Skeleton pose figures (pic related)
Upgraded silver KZ cable to use with KZ ZS6

how much were those skellies?
link?

s.aliexpress.com/jMbaI3A3

Maybe you are just not trusted enough? I got disputes resolved in my favor for just saying it wasn't working and a pic of the item, because you had to submit one, not that it would have been of any help, a still image of it not turning on.

Bluedio T4S, meme underwear, some keychain can openers, fake HM5 velour and pleather earpads a wool headband cover and a Redmi 5

You really need to work on that english. In my opinion buying a midrange phone ($200) and using it for 2 years is better than buying a flagship and using for 3 or 4 years.

>Will I end up with team viewer on my pc to take onenote ... notes in a proper way, yet not a proper way but portable.
What kind of notes do you want to take?
Just a simple reminder or do you mean notes from a class? Taking simple notes in a phone is okay, making full fledged notes for studying (for example) is not really doable.

I don't want to want /csg/ to die, where will I go to get my daily dose of chinkshit?

Study and management of my activies - I am a sysadmin in this stage of life, prepearing for courses of software engineering and self-studying all new technologies while working to acqiuire the hardware so I can do it privately, machine learning, block chain technologies and so on ( not that it would require amazing hardware, the later )

but the mobile phone seem to serve no purpose in this journey, other than helping me access my personal server / desktop w/e to edit, move and store resources or consume them for study or boot processes..

In the end there are a lot of incovenients, but I'm still tempted to on the journey to start using data into it locally 64 gb or more and start finding solutions to make it yourself and synced in both environments ( desktop and mobile )

Sorry for the English, I'm tired and on a new type of keyboard I never use - having to correct words so many times because I type them funny here - might caused my brain to shut down on translation aspect as I think in my own language - and I rarely speak in English.

At the end of the day can you throw a model at me? I've done my own research but it would be nice to check it over what I've picked when I get to use all my stored data, maybe tomorrow

Indeed, I literally just message them and get refunds just by asking nicely and saying I was looking forward to use the product. A friend of mine buys cheap shit and gets refunds by saying it never came (sometimes It indeed doesn't arrive), so you can try that too. Also, the user should have told by the price that it was gonna be chinked.
Are those even decent? I may buy some as a gift, I presume they sound better than the phone speaker, but how much does the battery last?

It is a bit more active in the discord

Just a suggestion, how about the Xiaomi Mi Max2?
The SoC is good and the huge screen should in theory be better for taking notes and visualizing data.

I might just try that, comfy

Then I would trip around paying mi6 mi7 price just for a bigger screen not for the real uses I have.

So why invest that money in that direction, I might push it towards generalized personal server or for immediate use, better gpu for machine learning.

Thinking about staying under the 250 - 200 $ mark, unless I'm really convinced by some arguments or shown more practical things to be done mobile, right now all hot stuff in tech still happen on desktop!

You are probably right, a phone just can't beat a full fledged PC on work. That is probably the right option.

Should I wait for the roundabouts of the Chinese new year to get muh chinkshit, are there any expectations of good offers then?
Or will there be a markup?

The inner sewing of my Bluedio A2 earpads is starting to fall apart. The earpads. I'm going to use this opportunity to order some big earpads and make these over ear.

The earpads are held in place using a plastic bracket with tabs. The lips of the earpads are glued to the ring. The outer lips are pretty small so it would be a bit hard to reuse these earpads, maybe you can stick them to other headphones using 3M tape.

Has anyone bought seeds from chinkland? I mean other than mint.

There was some user that bought a shitton of seeds. He was trying to get some marihuana, I don't know what came of it or where his pastebin with all his stuff is.

/csg/ has a few problems as I see it.

1) the chink meme is stale now. Too many people found out about it and the incredible low pricing of the past is a rarity instead of the norm. Plus, /csg/ often caters to people who don't care about technology and only care about vapid consumerism or filling a void in their lives.

2) the general has too many shitposting kids who are obsessed with manufacturing drama and e-celebs who feed into it. I chalk it up to the promise of cheap shit drawing kids in then they kick up drama because they can't afford to buy things as often.

3) hive mind mentality. Nobody risks buying any new memes and everyone buys exactly what is recommended to them by strangers without question. This is easily exploited by forced shitposting (Eiaosi X6) and generally makes for a boring general of everyone buying the same handful of things and asking for the same buying advice every thread.

4) no community. Anons come here, beg for buying advice, buy the recommendation, leave the general completely, then come back later to repeat the cycle. Barely anybody sticks around to give advice and if they do, they give up after answering the same questions dozens of times a week. The "community" is largely absent because of this. See the discord with 600+ lurkers and about 20 regulars talking. It's the same in the threads.

Oh boy, this is actually spot on. It really feels like I'm talking with the same 10 guys. You motivated me, my next purchase is going to be from the shittiest most chinkiest brand I can find and I'm going to share it with /csg/

You are exactly right. I do have tons of chink stuff that just works and when I lurk here, I recommend what I have set up (like the DZ09+bluetooth headset for a cheap music player) but I don't lurk much because I'm kinda busy. When I got some extra income I'll buy some stuff, or when I got extra time I'll Share what I got.

>the chink meme is stale now
this is really fucking us hard, I dont buy as much shit as I used to two years ago when I started

my bluedio set goes "wedy foo peawing" "peawing succesfoo" so it must be midrange right?

>still waiting for 11.11 package

>Barely anybody sticks around to give advice and if they do
speak for yourself, i mostly just give advice here. in fact, i cant even remember getting one item "shilled" in here
>See the discord
no thx, people who left this general for that shit were a mistake anyways. and the sooner yall get that, the better


recently received a similar one to these
aliexpress.com/item/5-12V-120W-ZVS-Low-Voltage-Induction-Heating-Power-Supply-Module-with-Coil/32665364617.html
after an user here reported he got one, last month or so. it works fine, idling at 1amp (12v), and the coil gets warm up to 45ºc or so. heating up an m3*16 screw shots the amperage to a bit above 6amps and about 80ºc on the coil. the screw gets cherry hot in less than 10s.
the pcb i got has "requires >= 20 amps" bellow the "quality control pass" sticker, but i cant see it reaching that, unless you insert the piece of metal too fast into the coil but im limited to 8a on the psu im using. maybe ill get a lead acid battery going, but not without a breaker or some poly-fuses first

I used the discord as an example of lurker to poster ratio, spergo. The same ratio exists in the threads, it's just not exposed as clearly.

Holy shit blue bamboo is an acutall real thing. I'm all in. I'm going to buy a bunch of these exotic seeds hopefully I don't get chinked to hard.

You can press the multi function key + volume up to change the lenguage to chinese and get the full chink experience

What 3D shit is more common? Blue/red or Green/magenta, I don't even know where to find content for that kind of 3D.

Oh boy, be sure to review those Xiaomi shoes

I wouldn't trust anything bigger than 32gb on chink sites

>your order will be closed in: 52 days

Sure I'll try. I might have messed up my address because I updated it and I was retarded, I messaged the seller and he replied "ok" So theres still hope.

discovered and ordered this neat ts100 case on banggood today

Bamboo is invasive and possibly illegal depending on location and where it's planted

Gotta link?

even the legit one is shit
i bought this drive last year from amazon on a lightning deal for like $20 , 128 GB
it over heated all the time and died after only a few uses , sandisk is shit do not but their flash drives unless you want a drive that over heats and fails and want to lose your data

i RMA'd the drive and they replaced it under warranty but now i have not used it much since and i am always sure to unplug right away
if you leave this POS drive plugged in for more that few minutes it gets hot AF and will probably fail

my kepcap puller arrived today.

Pulls keys like nobodies business.

>Mi A1 Oreo update out
>follow steps on Magisk github to update
>it werks

Jesus fuck.

Hey, a friend bought a Yepo 737A expecting to install Linux eezy peezy. then he got it and found out it's fucking retarded.

Any of you guys have experience with it?

>actually paying the chinks for a "keycap puller"
>not growing your fingernails out 2 inches so you can always pull out keys for free

anyone here ever found an arcade stick case on tao?

Are there any chink shit cameras ?

Oy vey I wasted an entire 50 cents!

if Bill Gates ever wasted 50 cents on a key-puller or an ass-scratcher he'd never have become a billionaire.
Think about that!

So my trusty vivo xe800 that i had for a year were sadly binned by a retarded relative over Christmas

Can anyone recommend another good pair of earphones with a mic?

wow, bought this last month from lidl, for shits and giggles
was like 7 euros

>ordered some headphones on 11/11
>still hasn't arrived, no tracking updates since 12/01
>chinks telling me to keep waiting
Should I dispute already or wait? Buyer protection runs out 01/11, but I don't even know what happens when it runs out. I'm so close to disputing but I've been giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Just wait 10 more days

who cares about them, always dispute when you can

KZ ATR for $6. I use the KZ ZS3 but they're a little more expensive. Sounds awesome. Check out the gearbest-George posts on head-fi for more deals. If you want you can even get Bluetooth or silver cables for the higher end ones (ZS3 is my favorite sounding and has those features as well).

Might buy the zs3 then, how's the mic quality?

I'm about to give up buying clothes on taobao
I either have really odd body proportions or the Chinese do
If I go for medium or large, the length of everything is fine but the sleeves are too short, and if I go for XL it looks like I'm wearing a dress but the sleeves are just right
Even then I have a XL hoodie that after a few washes is borderline too short on the length AND sleeves

I will soon try to order a custom made suit jacket/blazer. We'll see how that goes.

this is 100% not a real thing

never buy chink plants, the photos are fake, the seeds are sterile and won't grow, and you won't know until the dispute window is over

They're real.

Make sure you're using the latest version of the meme flash tool.

how did you update ? I am not getting the OTA no matter what

nvm, tried it again and it worked.

>browse the aliexpress jewelry
>material: metal

looking for a 5 meter HDMI cable, any recommendations?

Just wanted to pop in to say I read last thread and ordered KZ ZS6 yesterday. Exciting stuff. Reviews well possibly have to EQ out a treble bump but that's ok if true.

Thanks anons. I shall now read the hread

Got my new Mi Max 2 and the first full charge down to 22% - 3 days of normal use, 9 hours of SOT and still got juice for 2+ hours.
No power saving or other tricks to increase battery life, just regular everyday use with auto brightness and everything turned on. Charges to full for about 2 hours.

Xiaomi.eu latest weekly developer ROM.

Please learn English goyim

And £125 redmeme or similar is fine. Get high ram good battery ok screen

ugreen, orico

Thanks have orings to fit far too lazy spent 51p on a metal one

>i can't even remember getting one item "shilled" in here, anyway here's my review of a thing i bought after it was shilled by an user last month

>posting a short review of a product is the same as spamming referral links of it

Just got my Xiaomeme Mi5s Plus in the mail! I was going to buy a Xiaomeme Mi A1 but the Mi5s Plus was only $230.

Its been great so far except THOSE FUCKING PLASTIC PANELS ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM HOLY SHIT THEY ARE UGLY. I cannot wait for my case to come so I can cover up those fuckers.

How is /csg/ finding their chinese lightbulbs?

I have 3 types of led filament bulbs, all of them have been great apart from they all have a bit of strobe to them, shit looks trippy if its moving quickly.

My mi5 looks nice but its slippery as fuck without a case on it.

My first foray into chink earphones went very well

I bought the nicehck bro in sparkling purple and they are amazing.
they are very comfortable and the sound is very warm

the build quality of the earphones themselves is surprisingly good for a chink product. they feel extremely sturdy and look as if they can take a few hits.

thanks for the recommendation /csg/

Hey, what happened to kaidomain.com?

That Amazon basics one

What's the how new meme to try out?

Bought a mi a1 yesterday for $200 on gearbest.

banggood.com/MINI-Portable-Aluminium-Storage-Box-154-x-147-x-36mm-for-TS100-Soldering-Iron-Station-p-1244513.html

Link to a cheap keycap puller?

>order chinklectronics
>keep checking for tracking even though I know it will be delivered in 10 days or so

Thx user.
