Long time Android user here, I'm making the switch to the iPhone 8

I've used phones from Sansung to LG to HTC and sitting on my Nexus 6P since launch has been nothing but absolute headaches and searching forums for how to fix bug X,Y or Z.

I'm sick of these battery draining bugs, lagginess and this phone is running latest and greatest pure stock android (So over-rated). I'm sick of not being part of iMessage group chats, failing MMS messages, having to rely on 3rd party apps because the stock clock app or reminder (Keep) are just hideous. No continuity with my Macbook Pro, No first party accessories, no customer service, no store I can just walk in with a problem (Have you tried dealing with Huawei or Google? What a joke).

I can't wait till the iPhone 8 launches, I left them the same reason you did - I just simply got bored and outgrew it a while ago, I liked tweaking Android devices but now I'm a grown up with a full time job I don't care nor have the time to spend staring at my phone home screen and making it as "miniamlist" as possible. I just had to factory reset my 6P and left everything stock because I'm not bothered anymore. I just want a phone that is reliable, does the job and won't eat away at my battery making the phone obsolete after just one year of ownership.

I can't wait for the iPhone 8 Launch. Good bye Android was nice browsing forums trying to fix solutions for you.

not /SE/ but I had a 5s for a while that I jailbroke, was the best damn phone I had for a while. Was great until I broke it that is. My dog pulled me off my bicycle and I fell with my stomach on the handlebar. I had the phone in the front pocket of my jacket and it got cratered really badly, half the screen went black and completely unresponsive, though I still could unlock it via the fingerprint scanner. Now I'm back to an old htc one x+ from circa 2012 and the thing is damn laggy and the battery life sucks.

If you have the money, don't mind the ultra botnet and don't care about customisation just go for it. It just werks I guess.

I prefer android for all the reasons I just stated: I like to mess with my device because I have the time to do so and it makes me feel it's mine.

But don't expect too much from IPhone battery life. Also don't expect it to be bug free.

I'm currently on my 1 year old lineage os redmi note 3 pro which takes little to no effort, once set up as I like it and I can't be happier.

You get what you pay for. With a phone that costs 1000 bucks you can expect all the babby support you want. With my 150€ device I had to put in the rest myself. But I own my device and it makes me happier than with a phone that would seem borrowed.

No shit...no one cares about the V30 because hardly anyone knows it exists. People are going to be clamoring for the Note 8 while the V30 gets slept on just like the G6, and LG will be forced to come down on the price by Thanksgiving. It's a fucking win.

Not even that, it has a big black unusable wedge at the top of the screen. It is one of the most poorly designed phones I've ever seen.

What the fuck. What the hell are phone companies thinking now? I expected a heavy price from Apple, but what the flying fuck Samsung? Willing to bet money that 90% of the people buying these phones will be financing them via their minimum wage jobs.

I'll continue going for LG products thanks. My $400 V20 is perfect.

Financing a phone isn't really an issue anymore.

Honestly, even if you have the cash on hand, why turn down an interest free loan?

Because paying off a fucking phone for 2 years is embarrassing. Not to mention that people could easily break/lose their phones during this time. That and how long do non /g/ users keep their phone? Usually every iPhone revision, the normies are getting it. So what, you pay an additional $20-$30 every month for the rest of your month? Keep in mind the largest demographic for iPhones are people who fit into the "poor" category.
>>62394044
It's not even what else you could get for the money. If any phone, whether Android or iPhone was guaranteed to last for 5+ years quality wise, or receive extensive support and updates, I can see spending so much because it's a longer term investment.

Unless you're a retard you'll make more money by holding onto your money. Even if it's just 2% return, you're simply not able to get ANY return on that money if you pay it all up front.

It's an INTEREST FREE loan, if it had any sort of interest on it, yeah sure, pay up front. But since it doesnt....why lighten my wallet?

Which would make me sad, since LG is/was one of the last manufacturers that catered to users of niche features like IR-Blaster and removable Battery with the V20.

>>
>>62394199
I suspect it might be it. I received the phone just two weeks ago and was wondering, if I fucked up something or did it come like that from the factory.
>>
>>62394222
I used to always pay my phones up front when getting a 2 year contract meant you were paying $100-200 more for your phone over the 2 years. But since they've shifted to an interest free model with the incentive of constant upgrade, i'm fine with it.

I enjoy having the latest flagship every 2 years, and i'm still paying what i've been paying for 8+ years. Just now i'm paying over 2 years instead of all at once. Out of pocket expense is basically identical though.

>>62392837
Absolute MAX of $500 and that phone better have every single feature you want. It better be the full meal and a bag of chips.

I'm okay with nonremovable batteries now to be honest. Fast charging is so fast, wireless fast charging is pretty quick, and even though my phone only has 3300mAh I still manage to get 6 hour screen on time or more.


Also, at least on the Note8 the curved screen meme is not really bad at all, but the Note8 curve is the only curved screen I can stand. I specifically avoided the S8 and S8+ because their curved edge was retarded.

Well yeah sure, maybe my words were a little extreme, however I am all about choice, and some people like the choice of having a user removable battery. I just don't understand why manufacturers don't cater to that market anymore. I think waterproofing phones is nice, but a fad like VR and 3D. Nice to have but not essential. Non removable battery is not a deal breaker for me hovever I still prefere having that feature.

I hate curved screens because good glass screen protectors are either super expensive or they suck more or less. My v20 only has the slightest curve and the only reasonable screen protectory have to hide were they don't stick to the slope with a black glass frame. It's not too bad on the V20, but seems like a nightmare on phones that have more of a slope in the display glass.

Sorry english is not my first language, I my sentences are a little wonky please excuse me.

As long as you have a model of the phone that is supported by your custom ROM of choice, there shouldn't be any caveats.

Apple will keep pushing the price up until everyone is paying at least $2000 USD for their iPhone every couple years one way or another, they know they aren't competing on price and it's the only option for people that have long ago drank the kool-aid and are neck deep in their ecosystem by now.

It's obvious with how they stagnated with 6-8 models. It's extremely iterative. Also looking at the features between the 8 and X models:
>Portrait mode cameras (arguably already available on the 7 Plus model, so nothing really new to iPhones)
>wireless charging
>animojis (X only)
>Face ID (X only)
>OLED screen (X only)
I can't believe that's all they have to offer right now. The majority of people who buy iPhones don't even give a shit how fast it is, as long as it can run fucking Snapchat, Twitter, and Instagram (which it already does). Why bother with these phones?

I am a luddite who just got my first smartphone a month ago, Samsung Galaxy J7 V. I was recently informed I should be able to access a test screen to, among other things, boost signal strength in exchange for battery life. I live in the woods and change the thing once a week as it is so I would like to do that. The code *#0*# does not work. Did Verizon disable it and if so, how can I enable the feature again? Factory reset?

To stay up to date with security patches, bug fixes, and occasionally new and/or improved functionality, what else ?

>>62396187
Well neither should be allowed. The S pen is nice, though.

Seriously though. iPhone X's design and its price tag makes it an easy DOA.

What's a phone that fits the following requirements:

>Good low-light camera
>Good, loud audio
>Won't break in half if you keep it in your pocket

Windows Phones used to do this for me, but since going to Android I haven't been happy. Best I've used so far is probably the ZTE Blade V8 but its speaker isn't very powerful and the chassis is flimsy.

I was hoping for a modern take on the Axon 7 with its speakers but with a better camera.

I bought a G4 last year. The camera was garbage and the audio was buzzy and quiet. Send it in under warranty and the replacement was "refurbished" but looked worse than my used phone.
>>
>>62397863
why not headphones or external speakers?
>>
>want to get a new phone
>Android is absolute garbage
>iPhone X has that hideous design but that sweet OLED screen
>Windows Phone
>current phone hasn't had a system update since October

Why must it be so hard
>>
>>62398092
No way to hold you right?
What would make Windows Phone at all superior to either of the two "garbage" options?
Besides, there's a fuckload of Android phones with OLED screens.
