Is there any reason not to get an Axon 7 and pick the HTC 10 instead? The only issues I can foresee are less software customization (rooting, no bootloader support like with HTC), maybe update lag, and (some degree) of more bloatware?

I am a J-1 student, want to buy phone in US, and then move back in my 3rd world European country. For 3 years I was using iPhone 4s, got it as a present. Want to switch to an Android, customize it, but looking through wiki and existing threads got a little bit confused about modding scene and support regarding different phone models. Price range from 300 to 450 $, with shipment. Should I introduce myself to chink phone market, or should I settle for some Samsung/Nexus model, if yes, which one will be more friendly as "baby's first riced Android" phone? Thank you in advance, /g/.

Moto G4 Plus would be the best in that price range. If you can get a Nexus 6P for that price, that would be better.

S7 is the best choice as baby's first android especially if you're siwtching from IOS, but costs as much as an iphone.

Blog post inc

I went out to see if i could find a htc 10 in a brick & mortar store to hold it / see how the screen viability holds up under sunlight.

Turns out basically every store just expects you to buy a iphone or s7. The only store that even had a htc 10 had to unbox it "we're supposed to set it up but we dont" and I couldnt actually turn it on or anything. Its actually a pretty small phone too but it feels great in the hand.

At least they asked me why i was interested but when i said I dont want to deal with touchwiz they asked "whats touchwiz?"

Made me realize how much of a fashion piece a phone is instead of a piece of technology. The attitude regarding phones you see here is so far removed from what consumers actually even notice or care about.

Some sort of chinkphone, I dunno. I think Xiaomi makes cheap good phones? https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/Chink_shit_general/Phones

Not him, and dont know about confirmed, but the Note 5 has 4 GB of RAM, so why wouldn't the 7?
>>
>>55690726
New generations of phones typically have better specs than previously. The Note line also has historically featured better specs than the S line, and both S7 and S7E have 4gb of RAM.

I'm not saying that it definitely will have more, but it seems likely to.

Don't do it. Current owner and have had nothing but problems, especially with the antenna. Had to buy a phone for the wife cause hers shit hard and it's not under warranty. Faulty antenna.

>>55690738
Ohhh, my bad. Thought you were implying it would be less. Nevermind though. I agree
>>
>>55690791
Oh, yeah, I can see the confusion then. It absolutely will not be less than 4gb - nobody would buy it! Frankly, I'd be surprised if they launch with only 4gb; they're one of the larger flash memory manufacturers on the planet, and even the SD820 can support 6gb. If they push for the SD821, they can cram up to 8gb in there!
>>

Literally what happened to me. I really wanted the HTC 10, so I went to my T-mobile store to use their Jump on Demand program to get a new phone.

Turns out, the only phones they had were iPhones, Samsung S7s and LG G5s. That's it.
That's all the entire store carries, and they'll do their best to get you to buy one of them.
>>
>>55691312
Thanks for the source. However, it's worth considering that the pictured phone is the flat-edged model, which may be a lower-specced variant.

Nothing is set in stone, but it's certainly a possibility.

It's what I'm hoping for. I don't see a way to justify the price of upwards 800€ if it has SD820 and 4GB RAM.
>>
>>55691363
I did actually. That was my second choice, and it was either get the S7 now or have them order the HTC 10 and wait forever for them to get it, then I'd have to drive the hour back to the store, or just get the S7 that day and start playing with it.
>>
>>55690313
In Canada the first phone on the shelf is the HTC 10. They seemed like they really wanted you to buy it. I think because nobody likes it and they have too many of them and they're expensive to have lying around. THe only cases for sale are for s7 and iphone though.
>>
>>55691374
Likewise. I'll admit that I just thought of that possibility out of optimism. There's no way they'd put the same components in the Note 7 as the S7, right?

I hate big phones because you can't use them in one hand. But lately I've been wondering if I could deal with it for a substantially bigger battery, which is usually the case, right?

So I'll buy my first Android phone and I've been thinking about Nexus 5x. I'm not in the loop on the smartphone world so I dunno if I should just buy it or wait for the new Nexuses to come out and the 5x price drop. Or just go with something else

The phrasing of the sentence determines the pluralization. "That person wrote both posts" would be correct; "Those posts are written by the same person" is also correct. The subject in those two sentences is, respectively, the solitary person and the multiple posts.

Sorry if I gave you the wrong impression: I'm not adamantly /against/ paying $200 for 2 GB of extra RAM. I just don't have a sense of how much faster (seconds, milliseconds?) and how much better at mulitasking the 2 GB will make. For reference, I'm on an M8 with 2 GB RAM and haven't had another phone, so my daily use is purely based on how much I could get out of 2 GB RAM. So what have I been missing out on?

It'll play just fine. Internal storage is for apps, pics, and videos you record. External storage is for music/video of your own.
>>
>>55692346
This >>55692355
>>
>>55692413
Not the guy you're replying to, but wanted some clarification. Since the HTC 10 treats micro SDs as internal storage, this means that everything you mentioned can be stored onto and played from the SD, whereas on other Android phones, there's a partition?
>>
>>55692538
It's a new feature of 6.0 marshmallow, so older phones don't have the feature and have a seperate partition. S7 for some reason just didn't receive the new feature, iirc because of the performance difference.
>>
>>55692538
No I'm referring to the intended use. Your microsd card is not supposed to be used for running apps or storing private videos/photos as it has slower write speeds than your internal NAND and can easily be removed from the phone and your private info especially from the apps can be extracted.

Actually almost all Android phones will treat the microsd card like internal storage and some will even let you run apps off them (highly unadvised). You should still not store private information on it for reasons I stated. Nobody will get much info from your copy of some dumb rock band nobody gives a shit about and some yify rips.

>>55693326

Moto X isn't a terrible device, but it's pretty huge and hasn't even received Marshmallow ver 6.01 iirc. Still, largely stock android with SD support.

OP3 is good, just not as good as advertised. You don't get the full 6GB of RAM (though they might have updated it so you do, not sure), and people have already gotten Cyanogenmod going for it. For $400 you can do a whole lot worse.

HTC 10 is awesome. Always feel bad for HTC, because the 10 might be the best phone they've ever made. However they messed up by making it $700 so people just went with the Galaxy S7 instead. It's on sale for $600 on HTC's website until the end of the month, which isn't too bad seeing as that puts it in league with the iPhone's pricing.

>>
>>55693519
The business strategy behind the HTC 10 was terrible, releasing it at the same price as and so much later than its competitors, then putting it on sale for $600 in the same month the Axon 7, a much cheaper phone with all the same desirable qualities of the 10, is released at $400.
>>
>>55693543

Is the Axon 7 any good? I've been considering it, but want to hear from others first.

>>55693519

HTC really stepped it up with the 10, but they were better off just making a cheaper device to undermine Samsung instead of charging in directly
>>
>>55693529
Have you done a PRL and Profile update through settings and restarted your phone? Sprint is supposed to be getting network coverage and improve existing ones.

If you still get shit download speeds after this then look for another carrier, YMMV applies to all carriers btw.

Traded an iPhone 6s for a OnePlus 3, no regrets.

+Screen is pretty good (unless you are REALLY into the QHD meme)
+Phone is insanely fast (it even BTFO's an S7)
+Fingerprint reader is probably the best out there
+Gestures are very useful.
+Build quality is top notch
+64GB of storage

+/- Camera is decent, would say that almost on par with the 6s
+/- Oxygen OS, pretty much stock Android but ,most likely there is going to quite a delay between Nougat and the next version of Oxygen OS, you can install stock android on it though.

-No expandable storage, I mean I'm not a neckbeard who needs to carry all his Linux distros on his phone so I don't care but you might.

I have found no use for the gimmick screen aside from its function when the main screen is off. You can toggle silence, camera, flashlight, and Wifi without turning it on. The second screen has TERRIBLE light bleed. It functions as a night light, essentially. And, like I said, when I hold the phone landscape, my finger grazes the second screen all the time. Depending on the function, it will most likely turn on music, open another app, etc.

And from what I understand, the two metal rails on the sides of the phone, in addition to looking nice and providing structure, as used as grounds or whatever for the function of the fingerprint scanner. If you try to hold the phone without touching the metal and rest on the finger scanner, it will just fail over and over. So you can't use a case that covers those rails. You need a firm grip on both sides, pointer finger on the scanner.

Two minor things that I have found annoying. And the huge size was obvious from a spec sheet, but I wasn't prepared for a phone that doesn't fit in my Toyota cupholders.

Got my first smartphone a few days ago and have been enjoying it. Was able to score the display model of a blu studio energy for $70 at micro center, not a scratch on it and the 5000ma battery seemed nice. With a 64 gig sd card and a nice charge cable I was still under a hundred bucks. It's a shit phone I know, but I'm an old and poor fag so I've been pretty impressed with it so far.

Replaced a lot of default apps thanks to /g/ and /b/ and it's so much better now. I was still thinking about rooting it but am unsure what advantages root permissions will give me besides a custom UI. Would be a fun project for a weekend and it's been a while since I used the gimp but I feel like I'm missing a big reason to root androids. My phone is unlocked, so it doesn't have all the carrier bloatware, what else will root permissions grant me?

Best midrange phone to buy outright? Thinking Oneplus 3 or Nexus 5X. I've got a Nexus 5 OG version in the bright red with 32gb of space, but the charging port is fucked and I'm too goddamn lazy to fix it and inevitably fuck it up more.
>>
>>55694978
thanks.

>>55694996
Oneplus 3 is better than Nexus 6 and 5x.

>>55695028
Shit son, that straight up of a fight, eh? Been looking it up and it almost seems like a no-brainer. I've got shit luck with technology though, and have heard their support is shit. Even still, I might order the part to fix my N5 and try to sell it for a bit.

So I just read pic related about my phone, seems like the way to go, eh?
Any reason /spg/ thinks this guy recommends the 5.0.1 Lollipop over a 5.1.1 version?
There are a few different versions of each at http://www.blu-dev.com/studio-energy and the cm one has a supersu folder so is this guy just shilling that $4 app or what?

>HTC 10
>Axon 7

which one guys? I want music quality, but not the size of the v10
>>
>>55695048
I mean, I'm just talking spec-wise.
Also I got my OP3 2 days ago and it's been a pretty sweet experience besides a minor bump or two.
The N5 is really outdated as for 2016, if you want to play it safe just get a N5x, it's still a decent phone.
Or alternatively get something as a quick replacement and wait for the new nexuses
>>
>>55695087
HTC 10 seems like a better choice if you're going to deal with rather poor battery life (It's HTC, of course it's going to be poor)
>>
>>55695098
Mind explaining in brief detail what the minor bump or two were?

I know my N5 is outdated, I've had it for over 2 years now, so that's a decent lifespan considering how much use it got as a personal and work phone.

I'll look up the new nexuses and see if I consider them worth waiting for; or trying to make/hoping my N5 can live that long. I seem to be able to get it to charge... sometimes... not consistently though.

>>55695118
What makes the HTC better? I'm having a hard time justifying the price tag.
>>
>>55695136
The first problem I had was the software.
My OP3 came with OxygenOS 3.1.0
I wanted to update it and root it, so I decided to just let it update via OTA
OTA installation failed 3 times.
So I gave up and had to install adb, unlock oem via fastboot, flash recovery and then reflash the stock rom on the newest patch (3.2.1)

It doesn't really bother me that much as I know my way around android (rooted, unbricked and flashed tons of times on prev. devices) so it was a matter of 3-4 minutes.

After I set it up it worked nicely.

Another small issue that I had that after flashing the rom, the Android Pay app simply vanished.

Don't know why, but it doesn't bother me that much, as I can't even use it (not available in my country yet)

A different thing gave me a small heart attack - the ambient light sensor.
I thought it was outright broken.
But it turned out it works fine, just needed an hour or two to get used to the environment (still doesn't update the brightness slider, but I think that's how it is in Android [I came from iOS where it does update])

>>55695149
CDMA support
Supposedly better battery life than Axon 7
Sense
Lighter
Smaller screen (5,2" on HTC10 compared to 5,5" on Axon7)
It's HTC. A solid brand.
LCD instead of AMOLED
But then, I'm just a stranger on the internet.
I never had a chance to use either device.
>>
my S5 is still working fantastic coming up on 2 years down the road

s/o samsung
>>
Am I a fag for demanding my phone have a removable battery? On one hand, not having one indicates that they don't expect their product to last more than 3 years or so. On the other hand, it's usually worth upgrading at that point.
>>
>>55695244
Thanks for the stuff on the OP3 mate. I hadn't planned on rooting anyway, did it on my 2 HTCs before my N5 and holy fuck me in the ass it sucked so goddamn much. I'm gathering that it's easier these days, and I won't need to do some crazy trick like using a pin to short some circuit to root, but I'm not sure I have much use for it even still.

I've never seen Android Pay in my country either, but I live in the middle of nowhere where people are literally terrified of change, so there's that (seriously, we got a Staples... it lasted like a year, and the shitty local places persist). I'm more of a traditional "cash in hand" kind of person, anyway.

I'm a little confused on the OS it runs though, is it the straight up Google OS like Nexus, just with a different launcher preinstalled? I like Action Launcher 3, anyway, so I'll likely use that again.

OP3 runs (on default anyway) OxygenOS
It's about as stock as it can get (Nexus quality-stock) with few small changes here and there to make your life easier and the phone more usable (offscreen gestures, built-in nightmode, pull down on screen to show notifications, custom button settings, icon support, etc.)

Rooting OP3 is extremely easy
you install adb
"fastboot oem unlock"
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
>open phone
>let it wipe itself
>open recovery
>install supersu
>done

OP3 is extremely dev-friendly.
It has a different launcher (I think it's just called OnePlus launcher) but it's really stock.
>>
>>55695330
Ah cool cool. Hopefully they roll out updates to it quick, if I decide to get it. I think Action Launcher 3 actually has pull down on screen to show notifications also. I don't think that running a different launcher over the OS should have an impact on things like offscreen gestures or nightmode (it might though because it changes the appearance itself), but I could be wrong, and of course icon packages.

Thanks for the help mate, think I'll pull the trigger on getting one.
>>
>>55695244
>never had a chance to use either device

C'mon, man. You know implementation is more important than just specs.
>>
>>55695357
Running a different launcher only changes the homescreen experience and nothing more.

No problem

>>55695361
Yes, which is why I suggested the HTC, even though the Axon 7 has a bit better specs.
Generally you can expect HTC to do a better job with the OS
If unsure, just watch some reviews on youtube. They've been out for a while so you'll find some
>>
>>55695383
Dude I'm so sorry, I have one last question about the OP3. The cable it comes with. Can it be plugged into a computer for file transfer? Can I get any old USB 3 cable that'll work for that kind of thing or would it be easier to just get a little converter thing to switch it into a micro USB? I like being able to have one cable to charge from the wall, and one that I can just take with me and not care about.
>>
>>55695461
Haha, it's fine. I don't mind helping.
Yeah, the cable it comes with can be used for file transfer.
I actually got mine with some extras (not directly from their website) so I had a spare cable that'd only charge (no file transfer) and also a microusb to usb3c converter, but I haven't checked if it works.

Though generally a MicroUSB -> USB3C converter exists, as I have one.
So as long as you'd have a MicroUSB charger, and that, you could charge your device most likely.
Though you want to use the included charger and cable to get dash charging (1h from ~5% to 100%)
>>
>>55695506
Right, that makes sense. I'll probably just give it a week or so with what comes in the box to figure out how I want to go about getting a 2nd cable (just to charge from like my laptop on the go, or in my cars). Anyway thanks for the 3am slight-intoxicated tech help mate.... I can't even type properly tonight so I'm just going to collapse on my bed now. Cheers from Canada, and here's hoping the CAD doesn't fuck me tomorrow.

Gnight

>>55695383
That's fair. I've seen quite a few reviews and I'm still undecided. I'm partially expecting the 10 to drop in price sometime soon; even at $600, no one is buying it, so the only way to go is a lower price point.
>>
>>55695574
Why is the 10 so expensive in the first place? What does it offer that warrants it being at a premium price that actual premium phones at $200 less don't?
>>
>>55694763
>needing more than 32gb of storage on a phone
>>
>>55695685
Overall, it's a great phone that does a lot of things right, but doesn't do any one thing good enough to stand out, save for its music quality, which unfortunately not enough people care about.

I'm thinking the $700 initial price tag was both a branding issue and a funding issue, where HTC needs to be seen as a manufacturer of premium flagships that compete with Apple and Samsung. Undercutting those companies at a cheaper price point might work from a short term financial perspective, but in the long run would damage the brand. I say it's a funding issue because with proper marketing, if HTC could afford it, they'd be able to push the 10 harder, drop the price a bit, make more sales. But they couldn't and are suffering for their pricing decision.
>>
>>55695330
If you're still here could you tell me what carrier and how's the LTE? Also thinkig about OP3, have T-Mobile and Play. I heard the were some problems with OP3's reception
>>
>>55695781
Wow, just read up on some of their sales reportings, and as of June 5th, the were struggling to reach 1 million sales and overall are down 27% compared to last year.

Question:
Where from people in Europe buy their phones? In my country you can't get shit for decent price.
Please advise!
>>
>good battery
>good warranty
>good rom support
>good camera
>screen usable in sunlight
does this phone exist?
>>
>>55695876
Yeah. I like their (attempted) innovation, but the 10 falling so flat despite being so good is a huge bummer. Honestly considering buying it in solidarity.
>>
I'm upgrading my phone for the first time in 4 years.

Recommend me a decent android phone for around 200-250€. Points for it having minimal amount of pre-installed crap. I don't give a shit about game performance.

Currently looking at Huawei 5X, which is around 230€ in Finland. I have no prior experience with Huaweis though, are they decent?

-Current Phone : Galaxy S6
-What I need : Small or compact phones that you can hold with one hand and dont annoy you and can easily put in a pocket, I just cant get used to this huge smartphones trend.

-Do I really have any other choice other than Z5C or iphone SE ?
I rather not go chink but if the phone is impressive Id go for it.

-What I want in a phone :
1.Good Display, I had a Z3C(got broken in a car accident) and I felt that Sony's display is rather dark or dim, while my galaxy S6 is perfect.
2.smooth and fluid UI
3.Good Battery life, I dont want the phone to last 30 days but something decent that can last you a whole day!
4.minimum storage 32GB

other things that are not a deciding factor but a plus :
5.Nice audio output since I listen to music from my smartphone most of the time (mostly headphones all time)
6.Good specs if available, I want the phone to last a while, price tag doesn't matter btw.
7.Dont really care much about the camera but I rather have a nice selfie camera, mostly for skype calls and shit.

much appreciated.

I dont know a big deal about smartphones desu but the iphone SE and the sony Z3C-Z5C I think are around the best size for one handed phones.
>>
>>55696166
its Chinese for once, and I have seen a lot of comparisons and tests and it seems it has a rather poor performance, dont know about the 6GB version, also their UI looks weird.
>>

>>
>>55696208
Okay. The iPhone SE is 4.9", but if you can take 5.2" screen size the HTC 10 checks all your boxes, with better audio than any other phone at that screen size. I'd consider it overpriced, but since you don't care about budget, it should be good for you, assuming 5.2" isn't too big for you.
>>
>>55696166
Dubs declare you must
>>
>>55696287
well first thanks for the answer but the galaxy S6 I have right now is 5.1 inches and I cant do everything with one hand, and the HTC 10 is 5.2 and looks bulkier and heavier...looks like I have to get used to the trend..
>>
so is redmeme note 3 pro worth it? i am upgrading from a nexus 5
>>
>>55696366
nah just wait for the new Nexus phones, they are almost here, and if you dont like them you can try the redmeme note 3 it might be cheaper, besides isnt there a new redmeme soon.
>>
>>55696420
i pre ordred a 5x 32gb when i was like $230 but cancelled immediately when i read that it will only be supported for 2 years from launch
ill be installing a custom rom anyway but its still better to have something stable and good to fall back to u know? and i will probably not have enough money to buy the latest until it goes to sale, and theen theres the 2 year problem again. its a never ending cycle i just want a good phone mang what do you recommend
>>
I've had my iphone 4 for five years without needing repair (but no new apps work), how long will a galaxy S7 last me without repair (and how long until apps stop working)?

I don't come across money often so splurging on a flagship has got to tide me over for a few years at least.
>>
>>55690945
What the heck would you even do on a phone to need that much RAM, im on my computer right now that has 16GB and with over 120 tabs open on chrome (plus a couple other things open) i am using exactly 50% of my RAM, surely people don't have that much shit open on a phone do they?
