/spg/ - Smartphone General - Proper Edition

First for chinkphone masterrace

So were there any close-up shots of LG V30's subpixels or anything? I keep wondering what's the subpixel layout on it and all I get linked to are articles about non-uniform flat colors and such, which have no information about the subpixels whatsoever. Or guesswork based on their really old devices or TVs.

This may sound like an autistic question and I know perfectly well it is, but still.

Xiaomi SE/5E 4" when?

>>62281309
If only it was 5 inches and 4000 mAh

Posting from my Essential phone right now.

Form wise, this is the best Android phone I've held since the Nexus 4. It feels like an iPhone in terms of build quality.

Camera app is garbage. Finger print reader is excellent. Screen is 10/10 for an LCD. Speakers are average to below average.

>>62282840
You think it's actually gonna come?
Apple seems to have no interest in anything smaller than 4.7", and the SE was stilted featurewise, as it was. They made the SE the "budget" phone, instead of the smaller phone.

>>62283266
How good is Xperia X Compact compared to Nexus 5 and Moto X Pure, I have both but I need something small like Nexus 5 now.

What camera app are you using?

Alternatively, I could just charged it when it gets to 20%. I just didn't want to think about it.

Lenovo is building some top notch phones. I'm really happy with my Moto Z as well, battery life is extraordinary, considering it only has 2600 mAh.

Is there a way to install Google Camera on any phone? I found an apk but the phone won't install it

>>62284276

Lenovo A Plus? http://www.gsmarena.com/lenovo_a_plus-8320.php

The battery is shit but I am sure you can swap it out for a better one.

>>62284079
does it have Nougat? Will they upgrade it Oreo?

>read a website about iPhone and general Apple products

Why are apple fanboys so lame and cringey? I don't even own a Samsung device and this shit is almost painful to read

>>62285226

Why not wait until Lineage updates to Oreo? Or use 14.1?

>>62285163

But nevermind, I've done some researach and apparently it only works on certain CPUs. So thanks for making all these "install google camera on ANY phone!!!!!" articles, motherfuckers

>>62285250
I need xposed for many things, no xposed on nougat yet unfortunately

>>62285269

Ah OK. Then your initial notion doesn't seem so bad, just make sure LOS 13 supports the Redmi Note, which I think it does...

>>62285497
>But they don't last.
yes they do. the hardware won't break on its own and they get plenty of ROM support with either MIUI or lineage os

I'm looking for a tough smart phone with good battery life to use in the EU but also in the US for bonus points. Basically my smart phones doubles as a GPS when hiking. Am happy to sacrifice camera performance. Needs to have SD card support and for more bonus points decent DAC. Budget is up to £250 or whatever that is in USD.

>>62286363
The difference it makes to battery life is miniscule. Only reason it's set at 1080p is because Samsung can't make Touchwiz not lag at 1440p

>>62286363
the difference in power use is negligible. maybe for games it makes sense but even then it's mainly for performance rather than to save battery

Best android phone a lifetime Apple user can buy right now?

I currently operate an iPhone 6 Plus 128gb, but i believe it would be wise to have 2 phones running two different OS. Inform me /g/ pedes.

Is there any way to improve android MTP speeds on windows? I'm using a 3.1 cable.

>>62286933

Also get a Moto Z

>i believe it would be wise to have 2 phones running two different OS
Why?

I want to buy a smartphone. My Xperia Z3 compact from 2015 just broke. Right now I really like what I've heard about the Moto G5S. Big part of my decision is the size of the phone - no big ass 5.5 inch screen phones, I have small woman hands.

Wtf do I do? I need something reliable and under 250gbp.

it'd be much easier with paypal. I'd claim that the screen cracked on its own due to a manufacturing mistake.

Phones of similar size to Sony Compacts? They're just too expensive for what they are. I don't mind slightly worse specs. But the size is crucial. (Handlet who needs to be able to use one-handed).

>>62287116
also this wouldn't even be lieing, as it's highly probable that, if you installed it correctly, the screen you were sold is some shit copy.

>>62287164
a used Sony Compact or some older Sony Compact model

Otherwise Samsung A3
>>62287201
honestly, if you can't rate with a guest account you're probably screwed. I wouldn't even answer your PN if I was the seller if that's the case.
No harm in trying it though, maybe you can get something out of it.

If you don't get anything, I'd opt for another screen, replace it, sell it and then get a new phone, preferably the Moto Z, but any will do just fine

They do devalue though. X Compact are getting close to $200 used on ebay which is a fair price for it I think.

Better Overall Android Phone than the S8+?

Want to make sure I'm making the right choice.

>>62287048

>>62286792
they'll ship it and it'll be legit but pray that you don't get a defective unit. same goes for the aliexpress stores but on aliexpress you can get a partial refund without having to send back the phone if it's defective

Is the moto Z really that good? Like better than the OP5? I don't really like the design of the phone. I don't really care about specs other than battery and camera, seeing as having a faster processor won't really make too much of a difference. So design is one of the highest aspects I look at when comparing phones.

Is the moto z really that good?

It runs on the original Moto G with Snapdragon 400. So yeah it should run on that phone.

I personally think the Spen is really the only way to play it long term, so much easier to select enemies, specific chests, or loot, etc.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 or a Moto G5 Plus, and why?

>>62287789
Moto g4 very cheap, does the job and great battery life

>>62288350
I'm obviously mostly joking. I like mine, but it's not perfekt, obviously
>>62288270
It's actually pretty good, but only great if you use the modular design.
Battery can be great with the Turbopower Mod, camera is okay, but nothing special.
Look into it if you want, but it's probably not the phone for you. It's anything but shit thought, I can assure you that much

>>62288410
If you want a landscape slider, look into the livermorium mod for the Moto z

any opinions on cool1? it seems to be a perfect phone for poorfags especially when you can get it for 115$

redmi for the battery and the display

phonearena has the color temperature on moto g5 plus at 7989K which is too bluish. they haven't tested redmi note 4 but redmi note 3 is at 7842K and redmi note 4 is lower.

http://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_redmi_note_4-review-1568p2.php
>For one, the display is brighter than before. While the Redmi Note 3 did get adequately bright, the Redmi Note 4 goes a step ahead and gets really bright.
>Secondly, the colors look a tiny bit better. We tested both displays at the Standard setting, which is the most natural setting available in MIUI. At this setting, the Redmi Note 4 display is warmer, which makes some of the colors look more natural and the whites in particular look closer to the ideal white point compared to the bluish whites on the Redmi Note 3.

My galaxy s3 died on me while I was middle of navigating somewhere I had to pullover, wait for it to charge a little so I could start it up back again

I was planning to wait for a phone launched with android 8 so I could have project treble for some future proofing

Should I get cheaper Redmi 4, then sell it when something better shows up?

>>62288582
Not really the same realm, but you can give it a shot.

The Spen is a wacom stylus, an active digitizer, not just a capcitive stylus like yours.

>>62288582
is that a butt plug

>>62287981
Wow, that's exactly why I'm looking for it. My xperia is great for mario 64 but would be even better with a home button.

In about three months, it'll be 4 years since I got my Nexus 5. Naturally, it's time to upgrade, I figure. I'm in the US with T-Mobile and here's what I'm looking for:

>64GB of storage or greater (can be convinced to go 32GB if it's awesome)
>5" or larger screen
>either a Google UI or one that's not shit
>can be upgraded to at least the next two versions of Android
>decent camera

>willing to spend between $450 - $600

What are my options? Should I just wait patiently for a Pixel 2?

What happens if you add your dick as fingerprint? Would any dick be able to unlock it? Would my phone become a whore?

>search for comparison video on youtube
>"hallo guys I'm Rajeeb and todeh will compear..."

Thanks to the anons who recommended me a Redmi Note 4 a few months back. Switched to Lineage OS and the phone has basically been perfect for my needs and the battery lasts about 2-3 days.

>>62290101
Yes yes and yes.

Source: I did it a about 2 years ago with my Note5.

>>62290075
I'd wait, but if you found yourself too inpatient for that then LG G6, OP5 or Pixel / Pixel XL is what I'd consider

can't decide which one to buy: oneplus 5, galaxy s8 or huawei p10
now I'm looking at what kind of problems they have and it seems like oneplus is all fucked up

>>62292210

well it hasn't had the best time.

Jellyscreen being just one of the issues.

Jellyscreen, touchjizz or CHINKED. Doesn't seem like a difficult decision to me.

Thoughts on periodically charging your phone?

I own an OP3, not sure what type of battery, and on and off charge it in my car or at home. Not always to 100% but I never let it die.

Is this bad?

>>62292545
I personally hate HTCs version of android, so i'm probably not the person to give an opinion on that particular comparison.

I also think the squeezable frame of the U11 is sorta retarded.

So I was just laying in bed then my tablet turned on and the camera was on. Wtf. So I shut it off and opened the tablet, and my contacts was open. Then I got an email from Facebook, which I stopped using/"""deleted""" years ago that I made multiple attempts to login to my account.

I think my tablet got some next level malware. Tried factory resetting and it wouldn't work, had to do it from the bootloader menu.

Anyone have any experience like this before? Changing all my passwords now for sure.

Dual screen - main is 1920x1080 AMOLED and back is 960x540 Eink.
CPU is Snapdragon 801, with 2Gb RAM.
Despite it was released 3 years ago - still not bad in use.

My Nexus 5X just died, not even a bootloop so I can't get to recovery to fix it. I need a phone as soon as possible so here we go.

USA
Verizon
Sub $300, less is more
Good camera
New enough for security updates or good ROM support
Less than 5.5", 4.75" masterrace
A big plus would be being able to buy at a retail store as I need a phone asap, though I am okay with amazon, swappa, etc


My Nexus 5X was near perfect for me, of course LG fucked it up with bad speakers and even worse solder, so something along the lines of it.

I wanna buy something strong for gayming (emulators mostly, like dolphin). Is the Xiaomi Mi6 good enough for that or should I consider something else?

Are there any good Chinese phone makers whose phones work in the US? T-Mobile.
I have a Le Pro3 but LeEco is dead in the US and I'll probably be changing phones within ~6m

>>62283936
If the battery is at 100%, and plugged in, the phone is not accessing the battery to power the device. All devices with a battery have been this way for years. It won't affect battery life in any form.

>>62282947
Literally any Sony * Compact?

>>62283395
Good insofar as what? The X itself is kind of a regression from previous iterations of Sony's compact line, I imagine the Z5c parallels the Xc in performance. The XZ1c will run approximately as well as any flagship sans runaway thermal issues which haven't been an issue for some time (post-Z3c). Battery life has been phenomenal for non-tards too, which is quite the boon. The only real setback, if you're kinda a tard is the 1280x720 resolution, which is who cares and the IPS LCD screen which is kind of a bummer, but also who cares. People ding the camera, they're all faggots (read: journalists that suck Samsung or Apple cock exclusively.)

There's a LG G6 on sale that's equivalent to 570 US dollars, is it a nice deal?

I've soft-bricked my xperia Z3 and for some reason I can't access the recovery menu.

I've tried every button combo out there but the phone still tries to boot normally. The buttons do work, it's not a hardware issue.
What else can I do?

Wait for Pixel 2XL to be released and then make decision or buy the S8+ right now?

Update-

This is the comfiest phone of all time.

I did all the things to optimize it like keeping apps to a minimal and reducing animation speeds. It is so fast.

Battery lasted me through the day easily with regular work use and then heavy usage at night. Was at 40% by bed time.

It charges incredibly fast as well. Hooked it up this morning and was at 100% 20 minutes later.

After hours of research I've found out that you can't find a budget camera phone. For some reason the camera is first to go when yellows are trying to make something cheaper, which is a shame.
A galaxy s6 is the cheapest thing with a good camera I guess, lg g4 is cheap but it will die in a few months.

Why do you fags persist with Android when iOS is superior? I mean the 5S from 2013 is still getting updates and running pretty smoothly. Similar Android phones from the same era like the Nexus 5 or Galaxy S5 are pretty much EOL already.

>As advertised, the T8's camera takes really good selfies in low light. I normally use an iPhone 7 Plus and before that I had an iPhone 4S. The T8 takes better looking night selfies than both iPhones I've owned. Even with my iPhone 7 Plus, low-light selfies normally turn out dark and shadowy. For this reason, I have a Selfie Ring Light that I throw in my purse when I know I'll want to take selfies at night with my iPhone.
>The T8 made my face look much brighter and less shadowy in low light compared to the iPhone 7 Plus. There's one caveat here: You have to be really, really still when you're taking low-light photos with the T8 or they'll turn out blurry.

Is it actually worth it to buy a Galaxy s7 rather than a Galaxy s6? The only difference seems to be more ram (1G) and longer battery life, I can find the s7 for 70$ more than the s6. Please give me advice and corrent me if Im wrong
