I really only want a phone with an amazing camera and battery life. As for performance or screen, I really think that any flagship phone is good in these areas. I'm thinking maybe Google Pixel XL, but I'm not sure if there is exactly enough features with that phone to justify it over the V20, S7 Edge or even the iPhone 7

I can't decide between V20 or iPhone 7+

Which do I get?
>>
If you arent buying the Pixel you are wrong. Reminder that any android besides the one from google is horrible with software updates, which come out a year or two AFTER the nexus/pixel get it. Good specs dont mean a good phone. For example there is still massive lag at times on the galaxy s7 because of all the crap samsung and carriers put on their phones. With pixel you get straight from google with all of its smoothness and many software updates.
>>
>>57050189
That's why you get a Xiaomi phone so you can have the latest updates shit muncher.
>>
>>57050186
its actually just ios vs android on this one
either you like simplicity and apple's shit
or you like customization and google's shit
i can see the cameras probably being roughly the same on both phones

Hey /spg/!
I want an iPhone 4s. I'm going to be using it for calling and e-mail.
Part of it is that I already own an iPod Video, so that way I won't have to be lugging around two separate chargers for two different devices.
But I also just like the look and feel of the phone, which can't really be said for most phones currently released, apart from maybe some sony and blackberry phones.
So what do you think? Is it possible?
>>
>>57050243
V20 is cheaper...

Nigga are those touch buttons on the sides? That sounds like a terrible idea. You want buttons you can feel on the sides since you don't turn the phone to look for them. You also want some pressure to be involved in pressing them. Being able to adjust the volume without taking it out of your pocket, without your leg adjusting it constantly, is also a plus.

Screen damage is considered accidental damage, is your fault, not a manufacturing defect, and is not covered under the warranty.

Most cases don't provide that much protection.

Are there any Android manufacturers that feature software like the Sony XPERIA series? The software works on PC or Mac and allows you to troubleshoot, transfer files, and most importantly allow you to update your phone the minute that a new update is out.

I've been using a Sony Xperia M4 Aqua and it was dogshit on Lollipop until I upgraded it to Marshmallow using the application. It's still a cheap phone, but it works really well for basic shit.

I want to get a new phone but want to ensure I have an upgrade path that doesn't rely on whenever (if ever) my carrier decides to offer the new OS. The Xperia lineup is all over the place in terms of quality and pricing.

so RIP my Note 7.

My carrier's said they've killed the agreement, refunded all the accessories, and that I can come in for a free* upgrade.

My problem is... I wanted the Note 7. But I know they're not going to give it 7.0. I know that any sort of update will kill the battery or spam recall notices, if they even bother to give it that.

I don't even know what to get now. Should I wait for the LG V20? Hold off until the S8 line which might incorporate some "Totally Not the Note" features?

Hey guys

Normally I wouldn't help post in /g/ but this is doing my head in.

I'm using Google keyboard, but today I was holding my phone with the screen on and I must have knocked something around the keyboard area and now my keyboard is tiny. Pic related.

Can't figure out how to get it back to normal. Anybody know how?

On ATT. I currently have an S5 but my screens all cracked, it seems a little slow when multitasking and it's time for a new phone. I was thinking of the axon 7. Price isn't really that big of an issue but having the world's best phone isn't worth an extra 500 bucks if I can get what I need for 400. Is it worth it to get a 700 dollar flagship. Should I wait for a pixel or an S8? If I'm going the $400 route what could the OP3 offer over the axon 7?

Why does no one talk about the boot looping on the LG G4 and the LG G3 failing? Both due to poor connections between the CPU and mobo gone unnoticed in quality control. I never see anyone talking about this, or taken into account when suggesting LG phones.

Just ordered a Nexus 6P and I am feeling massive buyer's remorse after looking into the Axon 7. The Axon is $100 cheaper, has more RAM, twice the storage space, and expandable storage. The Nexus I bought also falls under Newegg's retarded non-refundable policy. Should I cancel the order and get an Axon 7? If not, please tell me the Axon is terrible chinkshit or something so I can feel better about my purchase.

My trust iPhone 4 has died spectacularly, with the L-ion battery puffing up and cracking the back case. Luckily it didn't explode.

I'm using a horrible pre-paid ZTE burner 3G phone but want to buy a new phone asap.

>32Gb+ of storage
>4G LTE
>decent camera for stills
>good quality screen

Want:
>DAC/amp that could drive 32 Ohm headphones

My current phone stopped working the other day. I probably dropped a transmission on it while it was in my pocket.

Need rec on a new phone. Current phone is Samshit note 3.
-US
-Sprint
-Budget is 200 or less
Desired features:
-3000mah-ish battery, preferably removable
-minimal bloatware so I can go a little while without rooting to play pokemon go with the bae
-Qualcomm quickcharge desired
-MicroSD expandable

beyond that, I'm really open to anything. Was even thinking about getting a note 4 since that seems to be the last "good" note phone. Open to chinkshit though too, as long as it won't spy on me for Xi Jinping.

The fingerprints are supposedly only stored locally.

It's pretty convenient, when it works. Today's sensors don't work half the time when your finger is sweaty (I have chronic hand sweating so this sucks balls for me), wet or dirty. Ultrasonic sensors are coming though, they're going to be dope. They'll even work through substances so they can be embedded under the screen, for example.

I just bought a 64GB 6P instead of a OP3 but the general consensus seems to be that I should have gone for the OP3.

I watch a lot of vidoes off my phone so I figured I'd prefer the nicer display and front firing speakers. Also I'd like to get a Daydream headset.

I don't think I've made a mistake but everyone saying OP3>6P is making me doubt myself.

I've got 16 Galaxy Note 7 phones that my grey market supplier told me to keep. They are post-revision phones, but as you know those are still the ones getting caught on fire.

I've been wondering what the fuck do I do with these 16 phones... sell em on ebay?

Dear /spg/,
Had a Galaxy Note 3, which was perfect for me. Had it since launch, however the charging port broke, then the modem stopped working, and then once that was all fixed, the microphone died on me. I bought a note 7 on launch, I really liked the phone, but I hated the curved screen because of the lack of tempered glass screen protectors. I plan on keeping the first one which was recalled a while back and send the second one, which was recalled today. I'm going to get a refund on the note 7 to get something else. Question is, what do I purchase next.
I was looking forward the V20, but again, curved screen, and also not waterproof.
Then, there's the S7/Edge. Not very interested in the S7, because of the smaller screen, however with the Edge I'd have to deal with the curved screen, again.

Also. What can my carrier do with the imei? Can they remotely brick my device? Do they know it's the one I'm using? Can I spoof it somehow?

tl/dr:
>Love my note 3
>Get a note 7
>Gets recalled
>Keep one of them
>Might get fucked over because of imei/Samsung bricking it
>Considering V20 or S7/Edge
>>
>Live in Denmark

I agree, but it seems like the influx of the bootloop reports came relatively with the same time span it took the first G4 buyers to start having this issue, just before/after the one year warranty. It's not as bad as the G4 issues but it still sucks to leave one of the last nexus devices in this way.

Another dual SIM or SIM/SD phone. This annoys me. I will obviously use a SD card, a phone without a SD slot out of the question. And I look for dual SIM support because I need it. This dual slot crap is just stupid.

My brother complained that the camera is slow. Not sure what he means exactly but he's unhappy with his.

So sometime last year I bought an LG G4, since everyone seemed to be shilling about it non stop. Yesterday it did the bootloops. What phone should I get to replace it? Any other bootlooped G4 users have any advice? Would like removable battery, microsd card and good camera if possible

idk, doesn't really bother me. I can live with it for a removable battery, mSD slot, excellent audio output, drop resistance, etc.

Found a video where it benchmarks better than anything on Nougat custom rom. Why is this allowed.

no, it's an old meme. edge a shit though, get the regular one.
>>
>>57063388
I don't think that's planned obsolescence, just shitty parts. I also own an S5 and the charging port sucks. Mine was actually made in 2016 and brand new when I got it, hopefully it holds up for awhile.

>>57063403
doesn't the edge have 20% more battery capacity or does it get offset by the larger screen?
>>
>>57063419
It pisses me off because I kept that thing in an otter box and always treated it gently especially when charging because the charger always seemed like it would snap off. I never even let it stay charged too long or overnight to lengthen the battery's lifespan.

Why cant they make a non manlet phone that doesnt have a shitty curved screen or isnt a bomb

>>57063347
Touchwiz used to look pretty crappy, but the newest one looks decent, you can use nova launcher as well with it, looks nice.
>>57063423
The edge has a bigger battery, 3600 mAh compared to 3000 mAh of the. The screen of course draws more power than the smaller S7, but the edge still has more longevity

I'm really liking my S7 edge. The only thing I don't like about it is that Samsung is really slow at updating their phones to the newest Android, you'll end up waiting 5 months after Nexus/Pixel gets a new update for your Samsung phone to get it, if you can deal with not having the latest software for awhile, the hardware is good.
