Nokia 6 when?

Is the HTC 10 strong enough to last maybe one or two years?

I'm buying my first phone but I'm trying not to buy a fucking brick.

Just give me something that can run Spotify and Google maps decently please, I'm tying my hardest, know what I'm saying?

Why do people say things like "2GB of RAM isn't enough"?

I am using my phone only for messaging, listening to music and navigation. I am using an old Sony Xperia with 1GB of RAM and it works surprisingly well and it's snappy.
Now I want to get an LG Nexus 5 and saw those comments. Surely it can't be worse than my current Xperia phone, right? It can only get better?

Hey guys, I'm the guy who's been shitting on /spg/ for the past 7 threads. Finally decided to get an LG G5, may get an extra battery if needed. Any LG G5 owners who can tell me how it performs for them?

tell me why i shouldnt buy a zuk z2 pro

Paid around 200 usd for it, with a two year contract that costs me 20 usd a month

>>61270564
great but ips display does not cut it went back to my axon 7 really nice dac tho.

I've never owned an apple product. But if the iphone8 turns out to have more screen to body ratio than any other phone currently in the making, I'm considering getting one.

I don't root my android phones, never found a use for the risk and effort.
Will I lose anything making the switch?

>>61270464
Well it all depends on how you use your phone, also older versions of android are usually lighter on the memory usage.

I've got a tablet with 2gb ram and a phone with 3gb ram, both on stock android 7.0, and there's a noticeable difference in the amount of apps/browser tabs that they can keep in memory. If it was my phone that only had 2gb ram I'd find the constant reloading of apps and tabs incredibly frustrating, but the tablet is mainly for watching vidya so it doesn't matter that much.

So if you're using your phone just for basic phone stuff, 2gb ram is still fine, but if you want to do anything more than that (games/social media etc.) I'd really recommend 3gb ram minimum.

Requesting purchasing advice

France, Bouygues telecom, 64gb+ internal memory, 300~350 euros, less is good too, I don't care about the size.

Will the nokia 8 be phone of the year?

Country: Australia

Size: Any big phone as long as it doesn't encroach on phablet territory

Or should I save up and just get an S8? Or wait for google's next phone? Should also have a good camera since I'm getting aesthetic (t-thanks /fit)

>>61271798
Only some. Check your carrier and see if the phone had their frequencies.

I just tried the pixel in a store and it looks and feels really nice desu. If it weren't so disgustingly expensive I'd probably get one

Say it with me:
ESSENTIAL DOA

Any opinions on the XA1 Ultra?

>>61271798
yes but not for LTE for the big three carriers (Tmobile, ATT, Verizon)

>>61272051
Essential DoA

That smartphone is just a flagship tier memephone, with literally nothing to differentiate it from the competition, and probably with some engineering flaws, pretty much like the OP5.

Nowadays I'm way more excited for new low-midrange products: processors trade computational power (which is overkill anyway) for low power consumption, meaning battery lasts longer, they don't have that stupid glass back, meaning they're waaay more durable, they're packed with stock android, and are much cheaper than flagships.

I mean, why should I even spend $700 on a flagship? What do they give you more than a 200~300 bucks phone?

Xiaomi redmi note 5 coming when?

>>61272874
Anything about battery size?

>>61271812
Do you never go outside?

can anyone recommend me a phone? I want to upgrade from a s3 which I've had since it came out.

The missus recently got a one plus 3 which I like a lot but it'd be too big for me. Ideally I wouldn't want the new phone to be much bigger than the s3.

requirements: upgrade in RAM/speed, good screen quality, not too big. Bonus if it can dual-sim. Budget/carrier not an issue.

>>61272923
I don't follow it so no idea. Maybe google name of the phone for rumors or browser gsmarena for speculations.

>>61270461
HTC is the most stock phone you can get if you don't count Pixel, they've upgraded M9 up till Nougat on a 3 years old phone , so the 10 will probably last a while. Not the best camera but it's decent if you plan on taking pictures. And it got a good DAC for headphones.

>>61272983
m9 is 2 years old m8 3 years

>tfw considering going back to Marshmallow because muh Xposed

Should I?
Not being able to use a couple of incredibly useful modules is such a pain.

>>61273025
Yeah my mistake, it will still last until 2018 what one can count on, can't know if they will upgrade it till Android O

>>61273092
HTC updates only for 2 years the flagship devices.

>>61273107
Yes but it will still be good after the last upgrade and will hold on +1 year unless you really need the latest upgrade which usually has slow rollout on most devices you buy, took Nougat quite sometime after the release to finally show up on any upgradeable devices.

>>61273131

I've wondered the same.

The biggest drawbacks I see are being forced to use iTunes for some things and not as good of an access to the file system on iOS, but supposedly ios11 improves on that.

Another drawback is Google Drive integration. It's nowhere near as good on ios.

If the iPhone7s comes out this year with upped specs and they remove the button / add an under the screen finger print reader then I'm probably going to buy that.

I am so sick and tired of Android fragmentation.

>>61272860
>>61272874
>just bought Redmi Note 4
>the chinkjews already have the next model ready
I'm still happy with this thing 2bh
By the way does anyone know if Note 4 Global is going to get MIUI9?

Something of a curiosity question here, is there anything on android to get as good an integration with the phonebook and answer phone as in iphones?

Being able to see who has left a phone message without having to go through the shitty "call 123, 9 message, slowly present all 9, 8 of which are empty noise and pocket dials, press 3 to delete" shit seems like a decent boon. Everyone seems to forget actual phone capabilities these days and seem to think the camera and video game functions are more important.

is repairing cheaper in android phones than iphones ?

Which year is 2nd gen? I have a Pure 2015 and am sick & tired of using shitty custom ROMs and waiting for the official Nougat update. Lenovorola can suck a fuck.

Personally I'm considering getting a G5+ for a while until the Pixel 2 and iphone 8 come out, thereby lowering the prices of everything else and I can afford a real flagship.

Dunno about you but while the S8 is ((le pretty phone meme)), it's prohibitively expensive, and plus locked bootloader -_-

What would you recommend as replacment for nexus 5?

Someone pls give me a single reason to upgrade from my AOSP redmi note 3 pro.
Cause I can't find one.

>>61271804
Moto G5 Plus is the best phone with around those requirements in Australia and has Lebara's bands. The camera is the best in the price range and can run majority og 3D games well.

Red-pill me on the LG V20

Do I but OnePlus 5? Got a Moto G4+ right now. It going burned pixels after using for like, 10 minutes but dumb fucks at the service didn't get my description of the fault for some reason and didn't fix shit. I don't feel like sending it back one more time and not having a phone for next 3 weeks. Especially after they got my fucking address wrong and I got my phone back even later than normal.

>>61273971
Please don't buy the OP5.

>>61273983
What's wrong with it? I've been using solely Moto G's until now and feel tired of them. However I don't want to play a thousand europesos for a phone.

Country/Carrier:
US/T-Mobile
Size:
Doesn't matter, nothing excessively large though.
Storage:
64GB or 32 + SD Card Slot
Uses:
To do list, calling, texting, social media, etc. No games so I don't need a fantastic processor.
Other things:
I would like it to have good custom ROM support, mainly stable Lineage, or a good bloatfree stock ROM. Preferably also 3/4+ GB of RAM.
Budget:
$400, although I can stretch further if necessary.

>>61274007
Literally every tech site on the internet is shitting on OP5, and probably justifiably.

I won't go into the cheating in benchmark/paying off camera review site/no stock at launch/support staff/speaker direction issues because they're aren't related to the phone hardware itself.

There are three deal breaking hardware issues:
- Jelly scrolling. You can check any of like 100+ videos out there. OP5 screen is mounted upside down. Why is that a problem? Because screens usually refresh from up to down. human reading direction is up to down. When these two are not the same, you notice refresh artifacts.
- Camera quality. OP3T has OIS. OP5 doesn't. And the downgrade in quality shows in benchmarks. OP3T was advertised as a flagship killer. It was. While OP5 was advertised as a phone with a good camera. It wasn't.
- It looks like iPhone 7. Appearance wise it's now on par with shit tons of chink iPhone copies out there.

>>61274120
I saw a few reviews and all positive so kinda surprised here. I don't browse for reviews unless I'm planning to get a new phone so I don't really know trusted sites though. Camera and iPhone like design aren't much if a problem for me but damn, that jelly. Why don't those fuckers install the screen the normal way instead? I'm really close to getting that phone. What else you guys recommended in the same price range? I'm in Netherlands on T-Mobile mobile.

>>61274171
>Why don't those fuckers install the screen the normal way instead?
Presumably they get one more port if they orient the screen this way.

>What else you guys recommended in the same price range?
If you still want a Oneplus people will tell you to get a used OP3T. But you should list your preferences (screen size, bezel/bezelless etc...)

>>61271656
Factory reset maybe?

>>61274233
Something around 5-5.5 inch, preferably smaller than G4+, was considering OP5 because it's thinner than G4+. Thin bezels are sexy and I like the buttons under the screen so I don't get a navbar. Expandable storage isn't a must of it's at least 64GB but I'd like something fast but not too expensive.

guys give me one reason to convert to android (from iphone)

>>61272579

>>61274233

>>61274338
Root, substratum, custom ROMs, Xposed, freedom to install any applications via apk files, adb (over the network!), "adb pull", no need for iTunes to send/receive files, more options for a phone, sometimes MicroSD card slot, sometimes removable battery...

The list goes on and on.

Anyone with a OP5 have thoughts to share on it so far?

Which upcoming SD660 phone is best recommended, in terms of brand reliability and specs?
The majority of these have similar specs, storage and RAM, but which brand has the fastest storage and memory speeds, best camera reliable updates, quality screen etc etc

Redmi note 5
Moto X4
Asus zenfone 4
Oppo R11
Galaxy C10

That's all I know of so far
Currently most interested in redmi and moto, Galaxy sounds interesting but the moto and galaxy will be more expensive, and the note 5 has a much bigger battery, but I've had a note 3 and it fucked on me exactly 2 weeks after the warranty went out which makes me a little worried about getting China phones

>>61275755
Yes

>>61275309

I don't understand why the phone exists.

Also, phones from microbrands such as that are risky. Also very little accessory range.

Is the galaxy a5 worth getting? Currently have a 3-4 year old iphone 5 and the screen is coming off because the battery is swelling

Anyone bought or used a 2017 Galaxy A5?

>>61276760
I got it. It's a good phone and I have no real regrets. I didn't know that it wouldn't have a notification LED before I bought it, but it's worked out well enough.

Anything in particular you want to know about?

Anyone with a Nexus 6?
Mine is having issues lately, or well, since the last "update".
Some apps just like to freeze or bug, like not responding to some commands, being laggy as shit, or even sending the phone on a reboot. I notice this mostly with instagram and whatsapp.
Everything that uses the camera will bring the phone into a slowdown almost meltdown, not everytime but very often, especially google's own camera app.
For some reason the music player likes to randomly stop playing (jack connection is good).
Also, for some reason it doesn't like file transfers in windows (transferring to phone) I have to do it with a mac.

Anyway the rant is, did you guys upgrade, sidegrade, or found an easy fix? (I don't wind to load up custom roms because it's a work phone, if it's the phone's fault, company is fine, if it's mine because I worked on it, it's my fault and company will complain).

>>61276869
No

>>61276831
I have had a Nexus 6 since launch, but for almost every point you made I would reply install a custom rom, but since that isn't an option, I would recommend a factory reset.

As for the random music player stopping, I sometimes get that when headphones are plugged in. The headphone jack on my phone has had a lot of insertions over the last 2-3 years though.

For file transfer I would suggest getting a proper micro USB cable (like Anker) and plugging it directly in your PC, not through some hub. I mostly do wireless transfers to and from my phone by using Airdroid.

Thinking about getting a replacement for my Note 4. Looking at the LG G6. Can anybody give me any suggestions for other phones or some feedback on the G6?

>>61276950
Did the factory reset and it likes to bring up the issues again after a while, kinda as if it had memory leak (but isn't).
I barely use the jack though, that's the thing. But I guess I might have given it a tiny crack.
I do use a proper USB cable, the factory one and a third party one. Tried drivers, etc. It's just something I came to accept, it's maybe my pc since it works on the macbook.
Thanks though.

I CAN'T for the life of me decide which phone to get, the galaxy s8(exynos) or the oneplus 5.
where i live they both cost the same.
The ONLY thing stopping me from going for the s8 is rootability and custom ROMs (even though the exynos is rootable).
Is the screen, water resistance, superior camera, wireless charging and design of the s8 with the tradeoff? I CAN'T DECIDE!

I haven't experienced any lag at all in the months that I've had it. The only thing that I've noticed related to hardware inefficiencies is that apps really quickly get shucked out of cache with the 2GB ram version. Everything else is perfect and I've never had the phone freeze.

>Camera is crap (eh, budget phones)
>if you leave it in it's rubber cover it will heat up a lot when charging because it won't be able to dissipate heat (any device will do this so idk if it's an actual flaw)

>stock theme is inconsistent. But you can change it with the "themes" app they bundle with the phone. This is the only "rogue" app on the device, everything else is stock Nougat Android.
>battery optimization isn't enabled by default. You must go into Power Management and enable Power Monitor yourself.
None of these matter to me personally and all this is expected on a budget phone. I bought it as a secondary phone for gaymin and as a replacement if my current phone dies. So far it's good.

>should I just fix my phone
I wouldn't invest a lot into an old device. You can sell it for parts and buy something newer.

>>61277252

Android will automatically reserve around 50% available RAM for the OS. It technically doesn't matter how much RAM you have as long as you at least have 1GB (for newer versions). Having more GB will only make your device faster.

>>61278808

I bet there will be because I got a 32gbs iphone se two weeks ago from best buy for $250. Why would they be selling it for that price if they weren't anticipating a new version to come out in the fall and need to clear inventory?

Best shit under $350? Needs to be brick-and-mortar in the US and unlocked, needs to work with US carriers. Phablet size and features seen on flagships (USB-C, NFC, etc.) would be liked. Also needs to have a good camera.

Was considering an LG G5, but decided not to risk the bootloop chance.

>>61273805
Not really. Especially Samsung. Their displays are fucking expensive and I'd charge double for the pain of removing a newer galaxy phones screens compared to an iPhone.

I'm in Canada and I use Rogers.

What's a good phone to buy for a budget of around $150? Durable construction, long battery life and small overall size is preferred. I hate how big phones are getting these days. I don't use it for watching videos, taking pictures, or playing games often. OS can be Android or Windows, but not Apple. Preferably not a chink-phone either.

I had a cheap Nokia Lumia phone for about 4 years. It's now unusable since the lock button snapped off the board it was soldered to last week.

I'm thinking of buying a BLU, Motorola, or Acer now.

I would never buy Samsung, but ergonomically it seems nice.

LG G5 doesn't bootloop, does not have the same manufacturers defect that the G4, 5X, and V10 had

Is there a source verifying that?

What's the best android I can get for like 100-200 bucks? I have a LG Escape 3 with cricket (min wage fag, is cheap nigga) as of now and I love it but I was wondering what shit is better than I have. I dont care what cell provider it'd be under. I would like to see all options

>>61282929
The 625s biggest asset is that it's killer for battery life, it's pretty good at performing tasks and the GPU is decent
The 820 shreds through tasks, has a great GPU, is daydream capable when connected to a 1440p screen, but it's not the best on battery life

>>61282963
I'd value performance over balance. If it can last a day (or 2) on full charge then it's good for me

>>61282987
820 will last a day, not fully if you use the fuck out of it
625 with good battery (3,000mah and higher) will last about 2 days, or a full day and through sleep before needing a charge

If your a manchild who's worried about gaymes, get a 820 phone

>>61283003
the question is, which (for the same cost as a G5+ would be)?

>>61283044

Depends, what are you looking to use your phone for?

For daily usage, the iPhone beats any Android.

OK, so is there an alternative to the G5+ at the same price which has things like USB-C and NFC with a good processor, and ISN'T the LG G5?

>>61283568

Nokia 8 will be under 500 wait for that

>>61283677
I plan to use it for daily uses but mostly to listen to music,take pictures,text,and use it as a computer/for work until I get a PC

>>61282577
LG G5 is your best bet.

Do any other phones have the motion tracking that the droid turbo has, shits the best feature and I don't think I could live without it

>>61283688
Mi 5 or buy used.

>>61283655
no

>>61283609
yeah exactly, what if they announce the phones this month and then it's january before anyone in nonchink countries starts to get them

>>61283705
how in the world will it be under $500? every leak/detail I've seen puts it well over that, more like $700

>>61283533
But it will be out in India for months before the US gets it, right? Do you see my point? Or am I wrong and it will be released in the US not long after?

>>61283823
>how in the world will it be under $500? every leak/detail I've seen puts it well over that, more like $700
All of this information is full of shit desu and you shouldn't trust any of it.

>>61283823

Newer leak I saw showed it will be like 489 or somethign like that

>>61283709
Perhaps you'd like the LG V20.

>>61283846
fug i wish they'd just announce them already

>>61283873
for the 835 version? that would be amazing, but I really doubt that since they're charging so much for the 430 nokia 6 when other phones in that range have a 625

>>61283887

Nokia 6 on amazon is under 200 with ads and 230 without ads.

Oneplus is 500 so its not surprising if the nokia 8 is around the same amount.

No budget, upgrading from an S4. Watch a lot of media and basic phone games. Listen to music through earbuds, write emails and such through my phone. Care about display and "usefulness" of phone, not so much about specs.

What should I upgrade to?

>>61283978

S8, otherwise wait for the nokia 8 or maybe new sony

Avoid lg at all costs though

Someone please make a strawpoll asking for general location of anons ITT: North America, Central/South America, India, China, etc. It really does matter here.

Getting a new phone Monday, I can't remember the last time I went phone shopping. I can't even remember when I bought my HTC one M7.
I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the different types of phones, money isn't a problem by the way. Is the new s8 worth it?

>>61283446
No friends

>>61284131

no, it's not.

>>61284192
Any suggestions? I don't have a fucking clue what to get. I really don't want another HTC.
I'm very clueless when It comes phones.

>>61284238
Get an iPhone.

>>61284249
>be a mindless isheep

>>61284267
The fact that you people actually unironically say this blows my mind.

The neckbeard is well and alive here on /g/.

>>61284238

assuming you want a flagship, sure

I have a 124 gb ipod touch and I fucking hate it

>>61284281
this was bait

lurk more newfag

Pls no bully. I've literally been using a Galaxy S III since 2012 I think, and today I finally dropped it and broke the screen, seeing as it's $50 to replace it myself I've decided to just finally upgrade to something new and cheap, what do you guys recommend for just a cheap <$200 smart phone? I don't even need anything brand new, just anything decent from the past few years.

>>61284313
Get a S5

>>61284292
Thanks will look into it

>>61284312
Ironic usage eventually becomes unironic usage.

>>61284299
Why?

>>61284337
no but seriously there really isn't any reason to get a iPhone besides the apple logo on the back as a fashion accessory/status symbol

>>61284345
Runs like shit and I hate the interface

>>61284292
>>61284131 here
I really like the xz premium, I'm sold.

Has anyone experienced the issue on the S7E that after charging the bottom part of the screen is barely responsive?

So my galaxy s3 is getting old recently.

Last year I was planning on getting the Moto G4 Plus but now they have the Moto G5 Plus.

Do you guys still suggest that as a budget and high performing phone? I don't use my phone that much, just to play games rarely and download a lot of pictures from 4chin hence why I need the 64GB one. And the 4GB RAM for some of the games that keep crashing on my current phone.

I heard that Amazon has this sale on the 10th? What do you think?

>>61285234
Zuk Z2 is a great phone for the price if you don't mind the 5in size. It has sd 820 and 4gb RAM but costs about $180. 64gb standard storage.

Bought one for my gf that went from an iphone 5s to a laggy s5 and wanted to go back to apple, it ended up being the perfect phone for her and she's never bitched about lag.

>>61285310
From Amazon or Ebay though? I don't know how much to trust the Chinese botnet.

So how's Honor 9's ui and bloat? Thinking of getting one, won't be rooting at least until the warranty lasts.

>>61285318
I used aliexpress + ebates for cashback for maximum jew.

The zuk z2 was released in India recently as the Lenovo Z2 Plus and the India ZUI ROM has no chinese at all or India apps, it's basically an English global ROM that comes with Google now launcher and gets OTA updates.

It's the cheapest sd 820 phone and everything else is pretty damn good too, even the camera isn't completely shit, better than my redmi note 3 pro.

Peck-typing the manufacturer's default included keyboard for the common peasant.

Slide typing on Gboard for the more distinguished gentleman.

But if you're a real geeky ass nigga, and can already swipe type like a madman, you HAVE to try out Keyboard 69 (the Android equivalent of the iphone version which is officially called Nintype).

Dual-swipe typing (you use both hands) is way faster and more fun. Takes less effort as well. The android version's literally still in alpha but I can't stop using it regardless.
