Yeah you are. The company is going under too

I thought it was bought by Razer, and Razer was still going to support it for another year or so? Honestly that's all I need desu.

Why would you want to buy a device that overheats and won't last a of normal use?

Buy a Moto /g/4 or a OPX if you need a good budget phone

Man, I don't know why I come to /g/ looking for sources of buyer's remorse instead of making threads before I actually pull the trigger

It's got an official LineageOS build which means updates forever.

It's the same colour as an 80s toilet. If you buy it you're a retard.

getting a 5x and installing copperheados is the correct answer to the budget phone question

Yeah, don't buy that shit. Buy a used Nexus 6, OnePlus 2, or even a Blackberry Passport. But don't buy that Nextbot Robnet phone. Cloud storage is for cucks.
>>
>>61104520
I didn't even really give a shit about the cloud storage the other specs for the price were too good to pass up
I was trying to find a oneplus 2 but literally impossible aside from amazon which said it would ship in two to three months
>>
>>61102417
Absolutely.

>>61102417
>Nextbit’s Smart Storage features have been baked directly into the OS so it’s able to intelligently manage your storage. To do this, the Robin automatically offloads the apps and photos you’re not using to the cloud when your smartphone is running out of space, but this comes with its own set of issues.
>However, when you use the phone from new (or after a reset), and subsequently run out of space (if, for example you take thousands of images when travelling for a week), the smart storage features won’t offload any apps or photos as you’ve only just taken / installed them.
>The device will actually move unused apps to the cloud to save space, and pull them down again when needed. The phone will back up the APK data to its cloud, leaving your personal application data locally on the phone. The app icon will gray out, indicating that the app is backed up. If you try to launch the app again it'll prompt you to re-download the app.

>Who cares it was already android
At least other Android phones have micro SD card slots and don't automatically upload your photos without your input. Moreover, this phone leaves you without your apps if you're offline. Sure, custom ROMs exist for it, but who's going to bother when the company is being taken over by Razer now?
>>
>>61108063
when is my phone ever going to be put under those conditions
>>
>>61108313
I mean, congratulations for a failed investment and a phone with virtually zero resale value. It's not like you couldn't have done research before buying it, but hey, it's your money after all and you're free to waste as much of it as you like.
>>
I just wanted something to replace my bootlooping 5x that would hold me over for at least a year why are you guys being so mean to me
>>
>>61108394
Who's being mean? People are realistic. You've gotten good advice and no one's provoked or insulted you really.
>>
>>61108313
The g2x was supported by the community for a ridiculous amount of time after LG made it clear they stopped givign a shit about it

I have an all black Robin For sale if you're interested OP. $100 and its yours.

Received for free for helping them out with some marketing stuff.Its a pretty sweet phone all around.

Ask /csg/ and they'll source you a better phone
>>
>>61108394
the phone is basically a 5X with an extra GB of RAM, worse camera, and all-plastic build

to the people citing updates as a negative - it is an android device older than 6 months, so of course it's not getting any. the phone has been mad cheap so you're going to have ROMs available for some time. just don't bend it and you should be fine. at $100 I don't know what's beating it.

Don't forget it got updated all the way to Android 7.1.1 while there's many flagships still on 7.0, not to forget all the phones that launched in 2015 and 2016 that are still stuck on 6.0 Marshmallow

Nah, I've got one and haven't had any serious problems. It's basically a Nexus 5x with another gig of RAM and more asthetic
>>
>>61115065
I will once I'm done tweaking with it

>>61116906
Any advice on how to reduce the heat? Its not too bad but considering I've just been downloading and arranging stuff its a bit worrying

Also the charging seems far slower than the Nexus 5x, did you notice that? So far those are the only two things I'm vaguely concerned about
>>
>>61102417
yes very very bad. it like chocolate.it break. no buy this, you cry after you buy ok friend?
>>
>>61102417
It isn't a bad phone for $130.
Install Lineage OS and you're golden.
