It's the downfall of good cheap chink shit

>>57232628

Honestly $500 is cheap for breakthrough tech. The Google Pixel is literally built like a phone from 4 years ago and it's asking double that price.

Shieet, that looks pretty good.

>>57232628
>>57233809
ZTE Axon 7 is $399, has micro SD slot, high-res amoled screen, and is made by a more reputable chinkshit brand than xisapodifjsapodfmasodfimoeee.

>>57233991
That's all easy stuff. Show me how many production phones have a borderless screen and call audio through screen vibrations, go ahead.

>>57233809

>breakthrough tech

The technologies used in this phone have been played around with in various skunkworks for years. Apple patented methods to acheive a display like this around 5 years ago. Difference is, chinks don't care about a polished or even useful product. What actual benefit does this thing give? As far as I can see its just compromises.

>>57234306
>What actual benefit does this thing give?
How about being able to make a smaller phone with a big screen instead of wasting space on useless bezels.

Then howcome the Sharp Aquos and the Xiaomeme Mi Mix did it first?

6.5 inches is just too big for a fucking phone. Espicially when it doesn't have a stylus

Lit-trail-ly the only reason i'm not getting it, I just can't justify having a phone larger than 5.5 inches because it would flounder out my suit.

I really hope they will release a smaller one

You have a choice, but for those who don't mind adding a minor bezel, its a free addition.

>Apple only uses patents to sue, not to implement.

Factually incorrect, they patent shit and trademarks all the time which go on to be used. Enjoy your palm rejection software which doesn't even work. The number one complaint of the SG7 Edge is that you're constantly making inputs which you didn't intend to.

Do you think I'll automatically defend everything Apple does? I've only used Bluetooth headphones for years, I still think the move wasn't great, its not a good thing but a necessary thing. You're probably not old enough to remember the decades where OEMs spent making 1366x768 panels until Apple forced them to do otherwise. Same shit here. In 5 years you'll be enjoying some new level of wireless audio with all the kinks and issues long resolved and you'll have Apple to thank.

None of them have to buy the phones, though. I agree that they're forcing everyone into the wireless meme, so that they can use customers as guinea pigs.

Early adopters of anything are always going to suffer, and buy twice/thrice.

Thing is that people who insist on getting every single iPhone and parrot the sales pitch are what that anon is using as a straw man.

I quite like a few of Apple's products, but I would probably only find 1/5 comfy. Same goes for a few brands.

TL;DR You're alright. Brand worshippers and early adopters WILL suffer.

Aptx exists already, its not like nobody was trying.
Also apple's response to improving standards is to have a proprietary chip in approved wireless audio devices which means that their 'contribution' is entirely self centered rather than conducive to improving since they just want to have a go at it themselves.
