first for what launcher should I use on my s7

i was thinking trebuchet

also does rooting to install xposed fuck up an s7? I heard it ruins SPay

>>58736568
pixel, followed by the S7

>>58736542
Nova+android n theme+goodlock.

Okay, so I'm on Sprint, which is archaic and none of the chink phones work on their network, so I'm stuck with limited options, but a fairly large budget. Is the Galaxy s7 a completely shit buy? Or should I get some cheaper phone like the Moto G4. Biggest concerns for me are needs a micro sd slot, needs to be decently large screen.

Zuk Z2 or Redmi 4 Pro?

>>58736696
Unless you play gayms, G4 will feel as fast S7 because it's running stock instead of lawizz.

>>58736736
Yeah, I mostly use my phone just for messaging, watching movies n shit, so I don't need that much proccesing power. Plus the moto g4 is $400 cheaper, I'm thinking of going with that

>>58736726
R4P for that amazing battery life

>>58736696
>>58736758
Both Samsung S8 and Moto G5 are being announced soon so I'd wait unless you really need a new phone right now

>>58736542
Yes, if you're rooted you cant use Samsung Pay. Also rooting voids your warranty.

>>58736851
There's no way to use xposed without rooting, is there?

>>58719362
Looking for a new phone. Basically a normie when it comes to this shit, currently using a 3-year old One M8. No real budget. I only really use my phone for calls, texting, email, phoneposting, music, and movies. Looking for something with a decent screen, good sound, expandable memory and no intrusive "features" I'll need to disable. Oh, and it NEEDS mhl support.

Any suggestions?

Hello /spg/

Know that I never bothered learning about anything smartphone related since I never had the need for one.

requirements:
screen-size range from 4" to 4"5 (mostly something not gigantic)
long lasting battery
can be used as a phone (ie send sms)

preferences:
that USB-C thing is pretty nice
can run the steam appli si I can sold my 0.04€ card(the reason I want a new phone)
eventually micro sd port
[spoiler]if it can easily install cracked application it's a plus, though not necessary[/spoiler]

I live in France and currently with the SFR carrier
budget range from 0 to 150€

My current phone for references:
https://www.nokia.com/en_int/phones/nokia-130


Thanks

that fucking thing died on me a week ago.
Guy at the shop said the battery was the only thing that survived and couldn't understand what happen to the rest

MHL as a feature has been abandoned by phone manufacturers so there's a very limited amount of phones available with it

you probably have a vendor's ROM, go to their site and flash a more recent ROM.

Oh fuck me, the dual camera+flash on the back that looks like a kissy face was real, sasuga LG.

>>58743890
It also overheats if you play 1080p videos either on youtube or MX player (anime bd rips in my case) and i already got the famous burn in issue on mine (youtube notification icon burned on the status bar), luckily it's a semi easy fix (root, calibrate colors, use some app to leave the color blue slightly higher than the other two then either pretend the bluish screen doesn't bother you and stay on stock nougat or slap a custom rom+kernel on the phone to over/underclock, run the app again, pray the burn-in dissapears, underclock slightly and tweak the colors again to return the screen to normal), but then again for 4400 MXN- 210 USD i couldn't really complain since my old iphone 4s was a piece of shit, it's a shame my country doesn't sell the models other than the 2/16 one, i feel the better camera and fingerprint sensor don't justify the extra 21 dollars over the 179 USD Moto G4 or even the 120 USD Moto G4 Play.

Octacores are a total meme, let's hope motorola doesn't fall for them again.

Greetings /g/ents, a quick question to the knowledgeable. Considering buying a Xiaomi Mi Max (I have fuckhueg hands, so the size is not a problem).

Is there any other similar phone that I might be unaware of which would be a better choice? The specs I'm most interested about are:

5.5 to 6.4" screen
ac Wireless
Infrared
Not-so-important-bonus: 4k and slow-mo recording.

>>58744639
Nope, that's the best phablet available and it's pretty cheap too, it makes for a nice tablet of sorts to read manga and watch anime/movies on it, games/emulation are also okay in it if you use your ps4/bluetooth controller otherwise it's uncomfortable to play anything other than DS pokemen games, angry pirds and casual shit on it.

>>58744821
Thanks for the reply, anon.

app for manga, pls respond

>>58744907
Tachiyomi.

The rest are either shitty paid apps that don't let you download to read offline because you need "coins" to do that which you get from downloading random apps, or apps that don't/can't get their scans from batoto or any sites other than kissmanga.

>>58744230

>tfw have to use greenify to force hibernate the phone service to avoid 50% idle drain per 6 hours

Why is Android such cancer? Literally stock install of stable CM13 branch with pico opengapps and no social media apps or any apps which produce notifications for that matter. And it still can't do the simple thing of actually sleeping when I put the damn phone to sleep.

If I wasn't a poorfag I'd be back to Apple in a heartbeat.

>>58746925
I should also mention I have wake-up tracker, enhanced wake-up cutoff, aggressive doze and doze-on-the-go all enabled in Greenify.

Moving from Verizon to T-Mobile because my girlfriend uses too much data and I'm tired of being raped on my phone bill. Her phone is compatible, mine is not. Currently have a Droid Maxx 2.

Hello /spg/ I hate being that guy, however I've been searching around for a while using the sites listed in the OP.

I've decided I'd like to go with the Oneplus 3T I'm Australian and having terrible luck finding a well priced reputable and site.

I also have concerns that the chinkphone won't work with my pre-paid Optus plan and not sure if the International firmware version is a necessity or not.

I'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks

I don't care much about phones but I need one for work after all.
But I refuse to invest in a piece of tech I don't like and most importantly won't last me at least 1.5 years without serious issues. Requirement:

>Android
>5 to 6"+ screen
>REMOVABLE BATTERY (How is this not mandatory?)
>Good autonomy, especially in sleep mode
>Can actually do the phone part well (because this isn't a given, looking at my previous cheap phone)

I'd rather not spend 200$ on a fucking phone, but if it guarantee no engineered issues after a few months and has everything above, I would.

I searched for 3 days and it ended up in a crushing disappointment. I honestly can't find shit.
I read this thread's OP today, doesn't help at all, but I was pleased to see the Oukitel 4000, that's exactly the kind of big, solid thing I want (assuming it's features aren't a lie), but that's too old now right? Anything else like that?

Does anyone have an iphone that knows how well they work in the freedom dimension?
I have a caldav server for calendar, I want to sync this without syncing to apples server.
I have a carddav server for syncing contacts, same deal.
I have nextcloud for files.
I have a gpg key for my email, is this integrated in the default client?

How much of a pain would it be for me to switch to apple?
I currently use a google free android phone, but android has been shit for years and nobody seems to work on fixing it (I am at a point where I have to compile it myself just to patch the system because android so crap these days).

Thanks a lot. I looked around and I found a Zenfone Max ZC550KL for half the price though, is that a good alternative to the Go/Laser?

>>58748999
Seems fine. It has a non-removable battery though, all the phones I listed have removable batteries.

>>58749027

Damn I'm not sure now. What do you guys do with the phones once the battery can't hold?

Is there anything like the Xiaomi Mi Mix Pro that isn't shitty 2040x1080p? Something at least 2560x1440p would be nicer pls.

The only good thing about it is that it's fast.

I currentry have a Xperia V that i got for free when a familymember uppgraded. Is it time to uppgrade? And to what?

Is it even worth it to buy an expensive phone or is it just overkill?

Budget around maybe 200-300$. Most carriers are supported Sweden.

Does anyone know if I can flash OnePlus 3 ROMs?

>>58749385
Honestly I'd take the Zenfone Max over that. 2-3 years from now, which is when the battery degradation might start to become noticeable, it'll still have way better battery than the 2 Laser. And most people will switch phones between 1-2 years time anyway.

>>58749396
xperias compact, i guess. I have z5c, except crappy camera it's flawless. waterproof, battery lasts ages, compact, looks kinda nice

>>58749485
Depends on the ROM. Some such as SultanXDA's rom or LineageOS can. If it says "unified" in the topic title for the ROM on XDA it means it's for both.

I don't know where to post this, bit is there an Android RSS reader as good as gReader? All of the ones on the app store look shit, and the gReader dev is dead.

I've recently bought a BQ Aquarius X5 Plus 32Gb. An anon recommended it to me. My last phone was a pos htc one v
Here a quick review:

Size: 5 inch - good to handle, almost everything can be done with one hand maybe...

Weight: it seems really lightweight

Feel: back is plastic and feels a little bit flimsy / hollow. Front has raised corners which was odd, however I got a glass protector and put it on top and its totally flush now... maybe that was the idea. Sides are metallic and feel nice and give sturdy feel to it

Camera - dunno, dont care

System - android 7.0 something, seems pretty stock. Camera app is different I think.

Speed - seems nice and fast, but then my last phone was a crappy htc one v. Firefox with adblock loads very quickly. Chrome seems more quicker though...

Audio - dunno, dont care. But the volume of speaker and with headphones is good.

Screen resolution - my eyes are going so i appreciate bigger fonts, but I suppose its lower than other 5 / 5.5 screens around

GPS - supposedly this has gallieo support, but ive not been able to view them using various gps apps. (There's not may up and turned on currently right?)

Battery - seems to last a long time, charging via laptops slow and via AC is faster.

I'm happy it being a Euro phone, even if its made in china.

>>58750813
Oh, its got a fingerprint reader which I quite like.

>>58750701
feedly is probably the most popular
i cant stand its interface tho

>>58750518
While I understand the notion that politics is integrated into everything by nature - I'm just so sick of all these channels (both video and text based) all of a sudden pumping out so many politics videos when they have zero understanding of politics outside of what NYT states.

Currently I have a moto G 3, I had to send it back for repairs 2 times already and its failing again I'm fucking tired of this.
I want to change it for a cheap phone, thinking about xioami redmi 4/4A (around 100€).
Is there a real difference between the 2 models? I don't want to spend much money on it, any other alternatives? recommended sites?

I'm curious folks. Why do you guys risk spending money on chink phones knowing they are made of subpar parts and could possibly break at any moment? Not to mention that apparently the chink phones are reporting to china.

>keep hearing about how the iphone 7's battery is amazing and yadda yadda
>20% an hour discharge rate on fucking youtube

wew lad, talk about pathetic

Anyway. I have literally 2 hours to choose smartphone because reasons. I was considering the S7, S7 Edge, Moto Z, iPhone 7 and Moto Z Play. Is it even worth it buying things more expensive than the moto z play? I find this specs battle kinda retarded for something that you're gonna use for social crap, browsing and whatnot, so I prefer the better user experience (i.e. I really like how you activate your camera with the lenovorola phones by twisting your arm, tried it on a moto X 2014 and it was really accurate), battery life, build quality, looks, camera, etc. I doubt you can actually tell a performance difference among them unless you're an autist looking at benchmarks, so it's not really a concern.

I don't really care about the no headphone jack meme of the Moto Z and iphone 7 and I've never had an iPhone before, so I was maybe fancying a go at it before I heard of the pathetic battery.

The S7 Edge has a really pretty screen but I don't really know how to feel about the edges. I heard they are just annoying, so I was considering the normal version as well. Skeptic about Samsung phones though.

Currently leaning towards the Moto Z and Moto Z Play. The Play lacks OIS but I dunno whether that will make such a big impact on the experience. Thing is I literally have 2 hours to choose this, it's complicated.

Should I just grab the Moto Z, /g/? I don't want xiaomi/whatever shit.

>>58751283
Not him but you can find multiple videos online of people literally breaking xiaomi crap in half applying a portion of the force it took to bend the iphone 6. I agree with >>58751333. If it looks too good to be true, it's probably not. I use phones for years on end and these phones just scream ''I'm gonna fucking nuke myself in an year tops'', but that's just me.

Is there any good smartphone with keyboard around?

>>58751054
https://www.kimovil.com/en/compare/xiaomi-redmi-4,xiaomi-redmi-4a

Redmi 4A has a slightly slower CPU and 1000mah smaller battery compared to the Redmi 4. There also exists a global version of the Redmi 4A that has extra LTE bands
https://www.kimovil.com/en/where-to-buy-xiaomi-redmi-4a-global

As an alternative I'd consider the Xiaomi Mi4C. It has higher resolution display, a faster CPU and better camera than the Redmi 4, but smaller battery and no SD card slot. it sells for $98 for the 2GB/16GB version and $125 for the 3GB/32GB version at fastcardtech.com.

>>58751371
Yup, I bought a top of the line note 4 when it released, coming on year 3 now, and still going strong. I'm just naturally critical of all things cheap hah.

>>58750446
Battery ain't exactly removable, but overall it's nice. It's got an Intel processor, so some apps may be picky about that.

Your only options for high end small phones are the xperia compacts, which are plagued with issues of all kinds, or the iphone. Nothing you can do about it. Get the zuk z2 if you can deal with its shitastic low light camera or stop trying to fight the jews and grab one of the many 5.2-5 phones, the difference from 5 inches is negligible. Xiaomi has a few 5 inch models as well.

Actually already bought a 5.5 (redmi note 2). Bought it because at 120$ it really was a good choice.

Moto Z Play for the best battery life, S7/S7 Edge for the best camera

>>58740540

its really fast and lightweight. I hate the photos section though. The UI/UX is more complicated than it should be.

If you like Android you'll like the Pixel. I don't have the VR headset though but if you want to easily impress and entertain girls, then get it. Bishes fall hard for that shit

>>58751703
Yeah, it's a chore for one handed use. Honestly, the best phone for one handed use is the iphone imo. I don't recommend xperias because they have shit build quality and are plagued with issues. The z5 line overheats a lot and battery life is inconsistent. Try looking at the zuk z2 maybe, but I can't deal with that garbage camera and screen. People shill this phone a lot here but I think it's absolutely retarded sacrificing camera, display and the OS itself just to fit a retarded cpu in there. I mean, what the hell are these people even doing with their phones? Running benchmarks 24/7?

how can people consider using the iphone as a daily driver and it doesn't even have quick charging?

>>58751755
Yeah I bought the redmi note 2 for the specs, but it actually lags a lot (can't type correctly level of type) so I might need to put another rom than xiaomi.eu..
And finally I never play on the phone, the most I'm doing is browsing internet.

>>58751803
I charge my phone when I come home, don't need it to be fast.

I Have an HTC 10 and I'm having issues with the wifi connection. Pretty sure its not the router as all my other devices connect fine. Basically after about 10-15 min the connection slows to a crawl. Occasionally I get a wifi verification error notification. Also the connection never saves and I have to re enter the password each time. pls halp

Is there cheaper and better alternative?

Starting looking up benchmarks and comparison videos so you can get excited about one device outperforming another. Start imagining how much faster you're gonna open the apps you'll never even download on this device due to a 0.5 ms difference, or how the photos you will never take will look so much brighter with punchy colors on that other device. Sure you could settle for this entry level device just fine, but what about the fingerprint scanner? Hmm, let's go for a mid range one then. But what about running 8 games you don't even like at the same time? Going for the upper side of the midrange is much better bang for the buck now imo. But since we're already here, we surely could do with some waterproofness. It will surely come in handy when you take those cool selfies underwater in the pool you don't have access to. Speaking of which, we should rethink our camera choices once again, after all, what will your friends you don't have think about your photos of the travels you won't make if you post them in your instagram account you don't have in case they look like a potato? Gonna be super awkward. Anyway, here is your Galasy S7. Oh wait, seems like the s7 edge has more battery and a bigger screen that you don't need, and it's just a little bit more. S7 Edge it is then.

>>58753899
I just got mine yesterday, so I can only give you my 'unboxing' impressions

>Build quality seems decent
Feels sturdy in the hand, no sign of flexing

>MIUI is a big departure from stock Android
Pretty, and some interesting features attached to 'Mi account', but it is taking me a bit of getting used to, having only owned Samsung Androids before.

>RAM usage seems high
On the app-switcher screen it tells me '1.2 GB of 3 GB' available, even after I've cleared all recent apps. I don't really know what to make of that.

>Battery life impressive so far
Charged it up when I got it yesterday and it's down to 73% right now after a day of light use. It looks like you could squeeze out 5 days of use if you really had to.

Sup /spg/ my mother needs a dirt cheap phone asap. I ordered her a Lumia 520 refurb from china to replace her old one and after just a week the touchscreen has died.

I've got a One+3, and they recently had an update where you cant set the ringer/notification volume below 14% or to just vibrate, does anyone know a way to fix that? its themost irritating "feature" they could have added. i've changed the settings on the alert slider so it vibrates on silent, but thats not really doing it for me, as then i cant turn off notifications altogether

>>58757283
turn your slider all the way up to 'silent' mode. Then hold your volume down button while you slide back to normal mode. your phone should be on vibrate only then

>>58757518
that worked, thank you, thought it resets whenever i move the slider, any more permanent fixes or is that it and i need to wait for them to change it?

The LG does bootloop, in fact almost all phones from LG bootloop, only the budget ones are safe from this.

The LG V10 and LG 20 have an inbuilt DAC if you care about that, however the V10 has been proved to be as bootloopy as the LG G4 (you can sometimes find both refurbished/used for around 200 dollars and they still don't sell), the V20 is one hell of a phone but it ALSO bootloops, just not as frequently (blame LG and their shit soldering on all their phones post G2), still i wouldn't want to risk buying since it happens at random and there's no fix that doesn't involve wiping all your data.

The audiophile's phone brand of choice is HTC, the HTC10 is currently the best for audio since it has inbuilt dac, equalizer settings, the best front stereo speakers of any phone yet and trademark BoomSound, not to mention being on par with other flagshios and amongst the best phones of 2016, it just lacks a removable battery and IR blaster to be perfect (no other flagship sans LG has it but the M7/M8/M9 used to have it).

>>58757863
Thanks for your response, anon!

>G5 bootloops
Fug. I thought I read they weren't really doing it compared to the G4 or v10. (Use to have a v10 but it looped on me.)
Does wiping all your data even fix it? Sounds like you can't if it's a soldering issue. When will LG get it's shit together?

>no removeable battery
Fug. Nothing worse than a phone I can't just get to turn off because I can't pull the battery. Or being able to replace said battery easier. HTC10 doesn't look too bad though. Not a bad price either.

>IR blaster
Wait, what? LG phones have this?
>oh wait that was that stupid remote thing

Still debating if I should try to send my v10 in and see if they'll ignore that I replaced the screen myself.

Thanks again, anon.

Is it just me or does the Moto G4 have a shit speaker? There's audible distortion on calls and voicemails, and on speakerphone I have to turn it to max just to hear it in a quiet house. In a car or something it's nearly inaudible.

question, my S4 mini has a 3 pin battery instead of a 4 pin battery (standard) and it died. Wat do?

>>58758093
Like i said before all major LG phones post G2 bootloop (G3, G4, G5, V10, V20, Nexus 5, Nexus 5X), also wiping all you data via adb doesn't fix it but fixing it involves wiping all your data, more or less.

You can forcefully turn off all phones with unremovable batteries just by holding power and - button, i mean no one would be stupid enough to not provide another way to forcefully shut them down in case it freezes.

All flagship LG phones have IR blaster.

Send the phone back and have them fix it for a fee of couse, warranty only covers hardware and software defects not clumsy owners, then swappa that shit or sell it and invest into another non-shit phone, HTC10 is your safest bet if you care about audio, otherwise exynos S7E.

Shame I can't seem to do that with my own v10.

>no one would be stupid enough to not provide another way to forcefully shut them down in case it freezes
It wouldn't surprise me.

Yeah kind of remembered about seeing that remote thing. Never cared enough to use it.

I guess I can see how much it will cost me to get it fixed. Would love to keep it but guess I should try to go with something else. HTC10 looks promising. Was also looking at the Zenfone 3 and Mate 8. I guess which ever is easiest to root and has a larger community behind it.

Some of them can be rooted with kingroot but mediatek is often inferior to even the lowest end snapdragons, some 2015 mediatek SoC was getting its ass kicked by the lowly SD410 found on the moto G2.

Try Pajeet Shitstein.

>>58758986
Your post doesn't really explain the purpose of that ''''''feature''''''.

tbqhwyf the most valuable thing I lost was the smug satisfaction of having never truly lost my phone and having an unbroken chain from my first phone to my current one. The contacts themselves were of limited value. I think I may have a backup on Kies in any case.

When Redmi Pro 2 comes out it'll shit all over the Redmi Note 4 in every way. It has better cameras and an AMOLED display.

Should I get an LG V20 or an Moto Z

>>58759253
Damn that does look pretty damn good. Hope it's out soon.

Redmi 4 Pro Prime a good purchase right now? I can get it for like $200 AUD which seems a shitload better value than most anything else.

If I've managed to root and install custom recovery on my Android phone, does that mean the bootloader must be unlocked too?

I've been trying to figure out if mine is (it's rooted and has TWRP) but I haven't found a single servicemenu code which works for my device.

>>58759336
Yes, great phone with AMAZING battery life

>>58759366
Should say if it's unlocked or not if you boot in to fastboot mode

Redmi Note 4 SnapDragon Edition.

Better cameras than Zuk Z2 according to Indian reviews.

>>58759464
If you happen to know - will it state it's unlocked in no uncertain terms? Because I'm not seeing that.

I do see that reactivation lock is off and secure downloading is on, if that means anything.

Is a lumia 950 xl worth it to pick up for 300 bucks over an iPhone 5? I want dat camera

>>58753077
Yes, since it has marshmallow and an unfortunate chipset version there isn't an official working guide. My only options are A: fucking with towelroot until something happens and then using safestrap to run 5.0 and unlock the bootloader and B: installing windows and odin, flashing what should be an old official verizon ROM for 5.0, rooting and unlocking the bootloader from that (if it even boots), and then updating to 7 from there

Forum guides are fucking schizophrenic so I probably missed an option that doesn't involve rooting or flashing the stock ROM that's on it

>>58759400
Is the chink'd out android it runs decent? How is the camera and sound quality out of the jack?

Is there any future for Windows Phone?

is there a phone to replace my s4 with? I want better battery life and maybe a bigger screen, also I don't want to spend flagship $ on a phone i just text on.

>>58760964
Redmi Note 3 Pro is a big upgrade, get the 3gb version though. Over double battery life, better performance, 5.5in screen.

>>58760964
Oh most honorabre sir, prease buy redmi note, is verrrrrry good phone

>>58736472
alright, I've been an anti-smartphone guy for ages, but for my job I'm required to test A LOT on smartphones, so I'm finally thinking of switching in my dumbphone for a smartphone. Thing is, I don't know shit about smartphones except that they have terrible batterylife.

I'm looking for a smartphone that is:
- small, I absolutely loathe huge smartphones, that shit dont fit in my pocket
- has very good batterylife
- doesn't need to be a powerhouse, I don't watch videos or do intensive shit
- All I need is the option to use internet and listen to music

I live in Belgium, my provider is Mobile Vikings and I'd like to keep the price under 200 euros. Any suggestions?

>>58760948
No

Is it possible Apple switches to USB c on the iphone?

Ah yes, buyer's remorse. Should've just bought a Redmi Note 3 Pro 2GB Edition.

>>58761928
>Be me
>Order Honor 6X
>Read news that Honor 8 Lite has been released

And I can't cancel the order, if I could they would still deduct some out of it.

>Check Kimovil
>RN3P is $134
>Check FastCardTech
>RN3P is $116

Oh wow, is FastCardTech the new meme for RN3P? How can they live with such low low prices?

>>58761306
Embrace technology

What phone is it?

I went for the memeplus3 and it is actually the best phone i have ever used. There is literally nothing to complain about it. So if you want a nice phone for ~400$ just go for it.

In desperate need of an upgrade.

Price range: 150-200 euro.
I just want something with a decent storage capacity. (Though my current phone has 1GB RAM - 2GB internal memory, so I'm easily impressed here)
Something that'll last me a few years. And something that's not too large.

I've been sorta looking at the Honor 5C. And looking through this thread, the moto G4 seems to come highly recommended in my price range. Both of these are 5+ inch though, which makes me a little hesitant.

I live in Belgium - provider is mobile vikings.

Thanks for any suggestions.

>>58763213
Moto G4 Play is 5", storage is 16 GB and can be expanded via SD up to 128, pretty decent specs overal (2GB RAM/Snapdragon410) plus removable battery and stock android, good third party support on xda if you care about that

The phone is even cheaper than the regular Moto G4 by a good 50 euros.

>>58763346
Huh, smaller and cheaper. Sounds very good. Thanks for suggesting it!

>>58736867
Og youtube doesnt need root. It does have some minor bugs tho but nothing that closing the app and relaunching it won't fix.

Getting kicked off VZW in a few weeks for actually my using Unlimited data.
Couple of friends said that TMobile is terrible in my area, but I've got a G4 Play 1607 so I'm going to try them out anyway since my friends didn't research their phones and just bought what darqeeshia recommended b/c it looks good and gots dem jiggabigites an' shit.

If it doesn't work out then I'm going with ATT.
>What phones should I consider for ATT?
>5in or less screen
>cheap
>camera meh
>sd slot preferred
>comparable to G4 Play

>>58763485
Another G4 Play

>>58763518
frequency checker suggests it won't work on ATT 4g

>>58763537
If it's the XT1607 variant it's got all LTE bands AT&T uses (2,4,5,17)

>>58763622
frequency checker also told me that Galaxy on5 wouldn't work on TMobile despite it being free with contract at the TMob store

Why have smartphone cameras been improving over time? I understand why things like processors have been getting better, because of smaller nodes making them more power efficient and enabling more transistors. What has been getting better to enable smartphone camera sensors to get better?

replace the v20 with mate 9 in the op pic

It's a good phone but a bit overpriced for the specs you get, but your options are pretty limited when it comes to sub-5" flagship smartphones. It's basically Sony's compact phones (Z3c, Z5c, Xc) and iPhones to choose from.

>>58764375
Alright thanks
