>>62358816
Former note 7 owner?

>>62359042
Basically just UI and UX updates, mostly security. 8.0 is pushing project treble which is supposed to help remedy MFG software neglect and help them push updates faster. Some performance enhancements*, battery life enhancements*, more botnet**.

*results may vary
**built in applications are given more privileges by default than in previous iterations of Android.

I want one but the lack of a 3.5mm port and the horrible camera software according to reviews has me worried.

>>62360175
Did they fit an earpiece in that top bezel? Looks thicker than the sides.

>>62358500
Xperia XZ1 will. Preorders launched today

>>62359778
Black Player does, are there really players that don't?

>>62360201
I don't think there's an earpiece. That's from the angle the photo was taken.

>>62360175
Of course they won. They steal and cheat and do not give a fuck about their workers and the poor people and the environment. How can the West and the rest of the developed world even compete?

>>62360201

The physical camera itself is top tier. It's the app the sucked.

Essential just updated the camera app 2 days ago. It's much improved but still nowhere near as good as Open Camera or the Google Camera app.

You can install other camera apps so it's not a big deal.

Any 2017 or upcoming phones with decent specs *and* a removable battery? Even more preference if there are extended removable batteries on the market for said phone.

I've been rocking an 10,000 mAh S5 for a few years now and I'm too comfortable with the battery life to switch. The only mainstream competitor that looks great is the V20. Any ideas la

>>62360553
Nope. Everybody is going the direction of water proofing. I personally prefer it DESU.

>>62360572
Looks like I'll have to go with the V20 + 10 Ah removable battery then. RAM + onboard storage on the S5 is starting to become an issue

Dark days ahead la

Is betterbatterystats worth it?

Or are there similar apps that are comparable in quality? Even better if it's on F-Droid.

Are there any phones similar to the Essential Phone when it comes to screen? I have an iPhone SE right now and it's pretty good, but I feel like I want to upgrade to something more slick-looking. The essential's screen looks incredible, but it's too pricy and it's not unlocked which sucks.

What should I get if I want a a device that has a displaysize of 5 inches or smaller? I like the xz1c but it's so damn expensive. Huge bonus point of the phone supports lineage os (or any kind of de googled ROM)

>>62361206

>>62361580
lmao just realized it's not possible to have owned it for 6 years. Wow I could have sworn I'd had it since then. My mistake. Either way, I've had this thing for too damn long. I was thinking about the S8 but I didn't know if maybe there was some better options that I didn't know about? I don't know a lot about phones other than the Galaxy and Iphone line so that's why I asked.

For VoLTE to work, does the carrier have to enable it for every specific phone model or is it just enabled universally? I know my carrier has voLTE, but for some reason I can't get it working on my OP3T

>>62361595
Depends on your budget

What's the best budget phone?

Is it still the Motorola G5 Plus?

Nokia 6?

My AT&T bill summary is making me autistic and OCD.

Why is my iPhone 6S Plus paid off at 23 payments of 24?

I have an iPhone 7 and it's pretty decent. I like the feature that allows you to press harder on the screen and it does extra features. I don't what it's called because it's my first Apple product. But I find myself yearning to go back to my roots, BlackBerry. So if I do that, should I migrate down to the Passport, my literal dream phone for years, or switch teams to Android and get the KeyOne?

I dont want to spend the money on a headset if it cant deal with new stuff, would be a waste. But I would like to have both ecosystems if I could.

>tfw the next iPhone is coming out on the 21/22

I would care, but I just want to know when the v30 is coming out.

>>62362497
I mean
SD635 and the difference compared to the S8 is only 300mAh so I don't know that it's going to be bad, especially considering the fact that you can unlock all Sony bootloaders, meaning you don't need shit running in the background unlike the infinite amounts of shit present in the S8 which even then has reasonable battery performance.

But Moto isn't GSM is it? So you're picking between CDMA and GSM which means you have to choose providers too, right? Or are you Eurofolk?

Any fellow LG g3 users care to share their android n roms experiences?

It had some small lag until august I think. They updated the touchwiz multiple times and now I don't notice anything. I can get screen-on time of 10 hours. Basically charging it every second day

>>62361702
I think they're pretty good. They stay in my ears easily and the noise cancellation is excellent. Sound is good too. Not as good as my 40usd seinheisers from a few years ago (buds) but still good.

Also I don't know why the front camera isn't on the left since most people will hold the phone with their right hand and it's more likely to block the camera lens

I think xiaomi is moving the mi note 3 and mi mix 2 to a lower market space to the same level as their regular mi5 / mi6 etc phones

Both the mi mix and mi note 2 cost as much as 2 or 3 Mi5 phones when they were released. The mix now starting at $500 makes a lot more sense

mi note 3 isn't even flagship level, it has an SD 660 so it's weaker than the mix 2 and the mi 6.

Basically the mi note 3 is now the new redmi note 3 pro with a good camera and will probably half the price of the original mi note 2

>>62363052
Is it just me or does it look like it's got worse screen to body ratio than the mix?

>>62363086
For 100$ yes

>>62363295
not me but thinking of buying a 3T from O2 in the UK but can't find a buying price only contract

>>62363103
What's the scar supposed to be?

>>62363303
It does. The Mi mix 2 is 80.8% while the mi mix 1 is 83.6%. It's the sacrifice of having a proper earpiece instead of the shit the mix 1 had.

The S8 is also 83.6%, while the LG G6 is 78.6%.

Xiaomi definitely designed the mi mix 2 to be a cheaper phone. it's a $500 budget-flagship low bezel phone. I think it's perfect, if it was priced like the mi mix 2 I'd be pissed.

>>62363086

anyone got advice for buying a rooted phone off ebay? looking at the oneplus one

>>62363391
Hopefully, nobody cares.

>>62363394
I think the Mi note 3 is gonna be pretty badass for someone looking for a good $250-300 phone just depends what it actually sells at. SD660 is close to SD820 performance and there's only so many good SD820 phones for $250-300

after buying other chink phones and buying xiaomi personally I wouldn't trust any other chinks, xiaomi has OS consistency across all devices while the other chinks are all over the fucking place every new model

Man, when are we truly gonna get a full body bezel-less screen? The Essential Phone is so close, but it has that stupid bottom bezel because they used a freaking LCD like a bunch of amateurs. I don't even mind the cyclops camera anymore. It looks a lot better than the iPhone notch, at least.

because having anything plugged into a USB-C port in your pocket is a bad idea in general

note how almost all earbuds use right-angle headphone jacks? It's so when the wires are getting raped around in your pocket the port can simply spin and not loosening up or ripping the USB port out of your phone over time.

A1 is not available here

>>62365269
you sure it's not coming? you did ask for upcoming phones.

out of those two I'd personally pick the RN4 for better battery life (it's the SD625 version right?) but the G5+ has the better camera out of the two.

>>62365334
Oh, you meant upcoming, my bad. But yeah, I am not sure if it's coming to my country, I saw some pic a while ago with a guy presenting it and regions with countries behind him.

I guess I'd prefer the better camera, as I just saw the example comparisons. Losing battery life would be a shame but I think G5 has faster charging as well.

I didn't like that when I had the windows phone, there was a severe lack of apps compared to ios and android, and I didn't like when I had the HTC how hard it was to get a peripheral for it. Just getting a case was a headache.

We're almost there, but currently it might not be the best choice for durability. Both the Mi Mix and the S8 are notorious for being stupidly fragile.

well you'll have to give in at some point. Either this, or a consumerist af smartphone.

Need noob info on iphones. I understand there is a planned obsolescence with apple products because they stop supporting old phones after a while. Also newer versions of iOS run like shit on purpose on older models, forcing you to upgrade.

Does this make it retarded to buy an old iphone? I was looking at a 6s or iphone SE

>>62371214
iPhones are supported more than almost any android phone, an example is the iPhone 5s getting iOS 11 support and will turn 4 years old Sept 20 so at least 5 years of support.
As far as devices getting slower after each update that's debatable.

>>62371357
sounds like both 6s and SE would be good purchases then. thanks friend.

Also is there a clear winner between buying unlocked phone versus buying on a contract? it looks like the maths work out to the same price on what I'm looking at

>>62371437
Depending on carrier you can save abit by buying the device out right. Most people don't have $400 dollars to drop so paying a little more to do carrier financing is worth it to some especially if there not going to with carriers anytime soon.
If you have the money buy it out right from apple you save a few bucks and the device will be yours and unlocked
