I just broke my LG G3. Is there a phone in the 200 dollar range that beats it or should i just buy another g3?

face first onto a cement floor at work. It was a refurbished model so it only ran me 150 bucks. I run on a pay as you go carrier so i like me some unlocked gsm phones. I know dick all about phones though now im sifting through benchmarks liek an asshole trying to get something i can 2 day ship. Maybe i might spend a little more but IDK.
Julian Nelson
if you're down for another refurb then stick with if you want something new check out /csg/ for their recommendations, it'll probably end up with you getting a xiaomi
fugg i wanted to try to avoid chinkshit. I generally use my phone stock, but like the idea of rooting. Worst part about this is i need it by fucking monday. If i expand my budget to 400 is there something else? Are One pluses trash heaps, i rmember them being fawned over for a while/

Justin James
If you want to stick to LG, you can get used GSM unlocked LG G6 on eBay or sometimes swappa for $250. You can get it new for $400. It's a very good phone.
Don't bother with importing phones. Most aren't fully compatible. You'll be only using 3G on the "compatable" ones, so internet browsing, social media and downloads will be slow.
The Honor 7x is the current meme budget phone. $200 unlocked GSM on Amazon, pretty solid phone all around and the 18:9 aspect ratio is quickly becoming the market standard.
Other misc. choices: >the OnePlus 5T is highly recommended if you want to keep saving, arguably the best smartphone around, and $500 >the Essential Phone has a really unique design and good build for $300 used, $500 new; very big screen but small form factor, smaller company though >the Google Pixel (both normal and XL) are great phones with excellent software that gets lots of support by Google, can be found used or refurbished for $350-$300 most places, they should last a long time >the Nextbit Robin is a phone I used for a while, solid little phone with specs that were flagship in early 2016, can be had new on Amazon for just $120, however the company was bought by Razer to make the Razer Phone, and the Robin no longer gets software updates. It got it's last update to Nougat last year. The build quality feels kinda cheap, it's all plastic, but it's been surprisingly durable.
Hope this helps. It's worth noting that over the next couple of years, basically every company will move to 18:9 aspect ratio on their phones, and software will likely follow. Something to keep in mind.
Christopher Cook
Also (same poster as before) I had the Oneplus One, and it was the best phone I ever had. I really wish I wouldn't have slammed my chair leg on it.
If you're really into rooting and modding, Oneplus or the Pixel phones are the way to go.

Zachary Hughes
okay so I'll mini-review the FREETEL MUSASHI! my better smartphone is a moto g4 plus, for reference, I'm no flagship guy, so when I say "adequate performance", that is what I compare it to!
goods: + a fully working android flip phone, cool + build feels nice, buttons feel nice + buttons work well with the software + performance is just about adequate for most necessary tasks + it is getting kinda cheap by now, so not a necessarily a bad pick for a secondary phone for the weebs + good bandwidth support for 2G, 3G and LTE + removable battery! + using it feels like I'm from an anime!
bads: - I think I'd prefer it if it didn't have two big touch screens but the outer shell was just plastic with maybe a small screen - battery life kinda sucks 'cause it has a small battery. it probably sucks 1-3% an hour even if you don't use it much - no 3,5mm jack, gotta use microUSB adapter - the device would be better if it was a little bit smaller - the size is pretty much like if you stacked two iPhone 5 on top of each other and installed a hinge - the screens could very well be like 3,5" if it meant a smaller device, in my opinion - the screens should indeed either be smaller or have a higher res
tl;dr its a pretty nice thing if you want to use it like a glorified feature phone. biggest single problem is the small battery, if it was better, I could actually recommend the phone
Nathaniel Hernandez
holy fucking shit how autistic must you be to actually write/collect a detailed analysis/explanation like this i mean i think its a decent analysis but it doesnt address some of kirino's main drives throughout the series, such as half of the reason she goes to america, or why the love between the two actually exists it does well explaining most of the subtleties throughout the series (the kiss in the epilogue, why kirino let her friends confess, what life consulting actually means for the two of them) i agree with most of line 19, i.e. why kirino tries to distance herself from kyousuke at multiple times throughout the series, and i'd like to expand on it saying that kirino, for the major part of the LNs hates her love for kyousuke. this is probably due to kyousuke's change after the sakurai "incident" and his normalization and continued association with his manipulator (manami). an extrapolation on it could be that kirino hates that she is unable to do anything about it. she excels at pretty much everything, theres not much she cant accomplish, but she cant win over kyousuke (or even tell him her feelings). partly because of her being a bit dere-dere if she's not on edge, and also insecurities forced on her by manami in her youth. this makes her hesitant to go all in and succeed, which is why she has always failed in this regard

Sebastian Roberts
So I flashed the SU addon from the lineage website but root checker still says I don't have root.
Blake Nguyen
I'm using Oneplus 2, costed me 90 Euros and running Lineage. probably best performance to price and getting also 5+ hours of sot. 4gb ddr4 ram is also pretty great. this thing aged very well
Chase King
My coworker has one and goes on about how it's insanely shitty, he says he gets like 2hrs SOT and it just drains half his battery at work in his backpack
But the kid is retarded. He keeps running all these special bleeding edge supersnowflake builds with dumb kernels and probably every fuckin thing is broken and wakelocking.
He won't run stock because he's left handed and hates the capacitive buttons so he wants a navbar, and he won't run lineage because it's not special enough. He paid $600 for his OP2 and shits on me for paying $600 for a mi mix 2 lol
Christian Williams
lol wtf why would you pay 600 xD that's so stupid. It's faster than an S7 actually but still weird
Juan Davis
Kek
Ethan Hall
Burger bucks
The hardware generation of the OP2 is that if a S6. S7 has SD820 and will get 160k antutu, but lineage has less bloat
>i mean i think its a decent analysis but it doesnt address some of kirino's main drives throughout the series, such as half of the reason she goes to america It does, she's running away from kyousuke who she's deeply in love with. She knows that she can drown herself in her passion of running and eventually leave her passion for kyousuke behind but it's fucking futile because her passion for kyousuke fuels her other passions and without him she's not the same.
>or why the love between the two actually exists It does partly, mamani is a huge cunt who wanted to turn kyousuke into a fucking normie and severed the sibling ties between him and kirino by using the dumb rock climbing incident with that dumb girl to do so. Thus a cold war transcended to feelings of romantic love that burned so hot it could melt steel beams and no amount of fronting could extinguish.
Logan Young
This is a really dumb question, but is there any kind of chance I would fuck something up when I factory reset a phone? I just bought an used phone [spoiler]give it back Jamal[/spoiler] and I want to reset it, but I feel like my dumb ass would manage to screw it up somehow
Also is it really this easy to reset an Android phone? All I need to do is hold down two buttons, what kind of theft protection is that. Does it not even ask for a password? I lost my old phone a while back and this doesn't fill me with very much confidence that I would manage to get it back, if they just need to press some buttons and claim it as their own
Oliver Brooks
if the bootloader is not unlocked or no twrp you need to get into the phone settings and reset it from there
Levi Perez

Daniel Barnes

>Sexy color scheme That particular color does not even exist.
Honestly it seems like a good phone. I love the small form factor. Compact flagships are literally perfect. Still wish it had a dedicated headphone jack though. The module meme is a joke. Moto did it, LG did it. None of them succeeded.
Kevin Reed
Should I get a chink phone?
Jason Green
>no 3.5mm jack Why do they do this
Luke Hill
If someone has done a factory reset on their phone and haven't set up a Google account on it after that, will it ask for Google account verification if I do a new reset? Picture is what I mean, once the phone is finished setting itself up, you need to login to verify it's your phone. I'm just wondering what happens if no account has been created after the last reset, will it ask for the account from before or does it just let you in right away?
Basically I got a used 3T but I didn't ask what the lock screen pattern is, so I can't do anything with this thing yet. Now he isn't answering my message when I tried asking what the pattern is, so I wanted to do a hard reset again. Bt I'm worried I'll totally lock myself out. Apparently there's some kind of bypass for this on this phone but I don't know if it has been patched so I'm hesitant to try it

How do you clean your phone? Without ruining the oleophobic layer?
Oliver Reed
ebay, cost like $120 with shipping
it isn't a good deal spec-wise but hey, it is unique and a much better phone than something like the lenovo flip phone
LG has flip phones that might be comparable (wine smart, easy smart, ice cream smart are their names) and samsung has those higher end flip phones that are probably 300% better
seriously no idea. the phone isn't exactly thin so surely it can't be to fit more tech in...
Jason Ortiz
Alcohol pads. (Might be dumb) (might also make your phone's paint rub off)
Jace Barnes
alright boyos, some time ago i accidently waterboarded my oneplus one. core functionality is still there, but i've begun to notice random disconnects from 3g /4g /wifi data networks since.
right now i'm looking at all the meme phones to potentially replace it: >purism librem 5 >copperhead pixel 2 >nokia 8 >జ్ఞా-phone 7 >జ్ఞా-phone SE or nu-SE >i still have my old galaxy s2 laying around :^)

There's a ton of apns on my sim card by default, but none of them work and i can't connect to any of the mobile networks either- I tried making a new apn and still nothing. Do I need to get another sim card or something from metro? Should I just wait for the mix 2s?

I just bricked my Neffos C5L after trying to install cyanogenmod on it. It would reboot every 2 minutes, very unstable. I started in recovery again and tried to install the latest official firmware, now the phone gets stuck on the logo and never starts, hard reset doesn't work. I don't know if there is a way to fix it, it is a very low-end phone anyway, always a bit slow.
If I wanted something with at least 2GB of RAM, and I didn't want to spend too much, what would you recommend? Android please. Have in mind prices are typically around 30-40% higher where I live, compared to MSRP. Can't go much more than 200 bucks.
Companies learned from apple that you can remove useful features and still make more cash.
Jonathan Lee
Xiaomi Redmi series
Kevin Morales
Why didn't apple just make another lightning port at the top for headphones since their argument is 3.5mm jack uses too much space. I hate apple and my iPhone 8 is great except I can't charge and listen to headphones, can't find a splitter easily eithet because iOS blocks chinkshit third party accessories and says "device not supported" error
Charles Harris
Thanks, I'm actually considering a Redmi 4A (costs 155USD) This is the place where I'll probably buy one on Monday: circuit.com.uy/celulares-y-smartphones
I wonder if it worth it to pay 50 more dollars for a similar phone with a octa-core cpu, considering I don't play other games than Chess on it, I just care about it being fast for general tasks (browsing, chat, gps, a few gadgets)
Jordan Bailey
Their argument is bullshit since the space 3.5jack use to take is empty(and you can fit a jack there - it's been done).
Tyler Jones
>Moto X4 >Amoled >300€ >Antutu: 70 000

With that cash you'd be better off with chinkshit.
Austin Young
Do you play games? Look at the battery life ratings too. If you don't game you'll like the X4 much more for better display, android, and camera.

Leo Edwards

John Ramirez
Android keeps all your app info and contacts so you can transfer it after loggin in. Photos, music, and personal files you can choose to backup if you wish. Usually I backup my whatsapp and sms before activating a new phone, all the rest is app data that automatically restores.
Hunter Jones
Yes 205 US dollars in various stores here, some sell it at almost 250, but no need to pay more than I should. I get it its a good price 205 then?

Well just check how much is the redmi note 4x over there. If it's way more expensive go ahead with the redmi 4x. Otherwise go with the note 4x. Im really surprised its so expensive there. But first check of the phone is compatible with your carrier. Chinkphones have problems with American bands.

I'm looking at a Chinese phone produced by LeTV and called LeEco S3. It's made out of aluminum and has some impressive stats for its cheapness. I found it at 100$ (I get paid in euro) and I get a 10% off coupon.
It has 4GB ram + 64GB storage and 21Mpx single camera. 10 CPU cores starting from 2.3Ghz
The cons is that it doesn't have an audio jackpot and neither a SD card for storage.
But I want to know how it performs on internet browsing. Did anyone try it out?
Yet another phone made by the chinese. he second phone I'd like to buy is the Oukitel 10k because of its battery. But again I don't know how it performs and in the meantime someone might create a 15,000 MaH battery this summer or even spring.
Has anyone tried these phones before? They seem really good for what I need and are exceptionally cheap, but I don't know their reliance considering their lack of some features and because they're made by the chinese.

Austin Anderson
UK, 3 network. I need a physical keyboard and a basic camera. No requirement or desire for apps, a basic web browser would be nice. I've used android on a galaxy s3 and really didn't get on with it. Fucker was constantly blasting me with notifications that seem like text messages, but when I got it out of the case it's some bullshit advert from samsung, or a googlethingy I've never opened has updated and needs me to tick a box and press continue. There didn't seem to be any way to stop it from lighting the fucking batsignal at 3AM for the least significant shit, apart from throwing it at a wall and putting the sim back in my old nokia, which is where I'm at now. Are the blackberries any less annoying? they're about the only keyboard phones I ever see.
Cameron Edwards
Hi /spg/
I have access to an old hand-me-down LG G3 Beat. How do you think it measures up nowadays? Is it a decent phone?
I've never used Android before. How is it in terms of security and other areas?

you don't need expandable storage you tards just get the base model with 32-128GB and manage your files through your computer it should be plenty for the time being until you get a new phone
Juan Adams
4k on a smartphone is a meme. The G6 is QHD but I'm thinking of setting the phone to 1080p to eek out even more battery life.
Blake King
Always been an Android fan and currently using a Nexus 6. While it's still going okay, the screen is dim as fuck and I spend a lot of time outdoors so it's hard to see it. It's also got some burn in.
Should I jump ship and try out an iPhone like a 6s+, or move to a OnePlus 5T? Or something else entirely? TMobile is doin B1G1 on the V30, which could be an option but we've had a g3, g4, and V10 all bootloop on us....

Carson Roberts
The Xperia phones do great with 4K screens desu
They're in 1080x1920 unless they're actually playing 4K content/viewing images
or you can just use adb and set the screen to be at 4K 24/7 without rooting.
Alexander Davis
I like navbars personally, they're adaptive so they go away in fullscreen apps, and they're customizable.
Christopher Russell
Where else would they be?
Levi Ross
That's not so bad, but it's about pixel density above anything else. 4k is a marketing thing.
I don't know it if works, seems you need a physical install. Plus there's the issue of installing Windows without paying (trail version?). But it seems some sellers ship global versions unlocked - anyone have experience with this?
Robert Peterson

Not sure how the Nokia 6 would be better.
It's worth noting that the 7x has slight performance hitches, but that's to be expected from a budget phone. If you want smooth performance basically everywhere, go used and get the G6.

How did you get it for $70? My issue with iOS is the lack of file management but the phone is great for my mother at price. 5t for yourself, replace the iPhone 6's battery at Apple Store for $29.

i'm so fucking tired of windows phones. No app support. Model after model the fucking USB C wire falls out all the fucking time.
How's the Google pixel 2?
Blake Garcia
Heard the Mi A1 has headphone jack issue. Is it true or is that a meme?
Ethan Robinson
The pixel 2? I've heard it's pretty great. The 2 XL? Pretty shit. I would know, I owned 3 of them and they were all defective.
I'm now using an iMeme because my cell company gave it to me for free + $150 credit. gonna sell it when either the s9 or pixel 3 comes out.
Brody Gray
iMeme X*
David Russell
Whats wrong with the XL? That's the one I was looking at. Maybe the regular version will do but I was hoping for the XL
Dominic Martin
Static in the speakers, blue shift on screen on models constructed before December, problems with some phones flashing a bright white light when the screen is turned on, bluetooth issues, and lots more.
It's a shame, because I really wanted to love the 2XL, but in the end I just couldn't do it.
Austin White
please, whats the best keyboard?
Luis Torres
Gboard swipe/drag method. When you get good at it you can go extremely fast.
Ethan Adams
Though about this. How long is the learning curve, you think?
Aiden Ramirez
Not long. probably a week or two. Even right away it's fast.
Noah Rodriguez
Hmm ok. I'll have to give it a go then.
Jack Price
My Galaxy S5 has served me well over the years, but it'll be time to get a new phoon soon.
Looking at LG G6. Thoughts?
Owen Ward
Why is there no lineageOS for the google pixel? Is there an equivalent in terms of privacy guard and bot-net-freeness available for that phone?
Buying for Metro in the US, but don't want to spend more than $60~$110 USD. My old phone was a One Touch Fierce 2 by Alcatel: >metropcs.com/tablets/details/alcatel-onetouch-fierce-2/610214638274.html I'd like at least a 5~6" screen, 16GB internal minimum and an SD card slot are musts. A ZTE is out because I want to be able to remove the battery. Rooting is also a plus, and it looks like that's already happened for this phone.
Totally open to other suggestions, or even doing something more exotic like buying an unlocked phone online. My main gripes with the Aristo 2 are the CPU (Snapdragon 4x1.4GHz, slower and older), internal memory (32GB would be great) and the screen size (6" would be nice). The battery could be better too, but that's not a big deal. The camera looks pretty good, though, at 13MP.
Dylan Bennett
Traveling this summer and need a new phone because my s2 just ain't cut for it anymore. Should I buy a xiaoshit now, and if so which one won't fuck me over. Or should I wait for some newer models to come out ?
Camden Foster
I've had static in the lower speaker and the grainiest oled display I've seen in the last 6 years. Phones with oled I've used: galaxy s3 to s7, note 2, 4, 5 & 8 The blue shift doesn't bother me as much as the grain when displaying solid colors
Gavin Butler
no just get a motorla e4 plus its good garbage, xiomaishit is garbage. Why is the e4 plus such trash.
Camden Clark
Stop being a fucking degenerate. Normie apps belong to reddit
Elijah Roberts
Opinions on LineageOS Official for Samsung Galaxy S6?
Kayden Cook
Did /hpg/ footfags just infiltrate /spg/?
Connor Jones
Best used verizon phone for ~$200?
Asher Sullivan
Anyone? Btw the note 4x is the 4gb ram model
Ayden Ramirez
Mi mix 2, do it faggot.
Grayson Gutierrez
What's the chinkphone with the best camera in the sub ~200 range?
Blake Martinez
you have to go on metro's website and register your imei if that doesnt work call up and they should add it
Aaron Hall
arm has no standardization like x86 and doesn't have something like a bios or acpi for basic use of hardware without proper drivers
Isaac Jenkins
>antutu like you're going to be using your phone for more than faceshit, instashit and snapshit anyway
Joseph Sanchez
Current 4yr old phone is getting really slow for whatever reason, and I've been looking for an excuse to replace it. Budget = $450 Must haves: + Capacities buttons on the bottom + Decent durability/build quality, i.e. no glass back + Good camera (by phone standards) +Headphone jack +Expandable memory
* Android version doesn't matter * Screen resolution doesn't matter
That's one nice looking hdd case you got there user.
Angel Russell
Lol, running gapples LineageOS on Oneplus 2.
I feel so fucking free now
Josiah Diaz
This is a great phone and will be picking up a SIM card today.
Ian Butler
Yeah ok link me an offer
Easton Nguyen
Is there a way to block text messages on Android without using an app? I'm using Mr. Number to block calls but it doesn't support texts. The phone is a Motorola G3 running Android 6.0.1
Samuel Reyes
Go on slickdeals and seaarch for Moto E4, verizon sells some prepaid ones for less than that and you can unlock it for gsm (metro) with a code from ebay.
Nolan Sullivan
Is this like soft arab porn?
Connor Roberts
Do all the 18:9 edgeless phones have the stupid rounded off sides like the S8+? Had an S8+ in my hands yesterday and screen etc. is awesome, but man the rounded off edges were killing my eyes.
Blake King
I'm typing this from a Moto G3 that's getting old and lags, I don't think there's a way to bar calls anymore, you just have to turn off notifications/ringtone/vibrate for the calls.
Ayden Jenkins
Not all 18:9 phones have the dumb 5D infinity edge just samsung. Others just have small bezels
Carson Cruz
What's the best budget (under $300) Sony phone you can get? Is it worth getting over a cheaper Redmi with higher specs? I want to know if Sony is only selling your their brand or do they actually have better build quality than a chink phone.
I'm tempted to get a M4 Aqua but not sure if it is worth it, specs are decent but is 3 years old.
Camden Sullivan
A new Xperia X or get a cheap/used Xperia XZ/X Performance
Colton Peterson
>Xperia X Like an Xa1? Is it really worth the price difference? It costs like 330 dollars where I live. Used it out of the question, not getting an used phone with a non-replaceable battery.
Jayden Johnson
>7.0 >great already getting no more updates? lmao
Sebastian Sanders
Xperia X is much better than XA1
Michael Hughes
why there is no freesync phones?
James Evans
Yes, it is too expensive too.
Jackson Rodriguez
Razer phone runs adaptive sync. Freesync is proprietary software from AMD.
Jacob Evans
>tfw have a redmi 2 prime since it was released >still good and running pajeet os so it's more or less up to date >only issues are camera with some noise and some dents on the edges >tempted to buy a new phone Is it worth updating? I'm was going for the mi a1 or redmi note 5 pro, but the moto g6 looks good.
Ethan Green
Best rom for Oneplus 2?
Anthony Martinez
Considering that everything on the market right now is either housefire waiting to happen, buggy on most basic functions, chinkshit, overpriced to hell and back, or any combination of the above - no, not really.
Gabriel Rivera
I need help with Tasker. How do I set it so that:
>Plug in headphones >Rotate to reverse portrait mode
Only because I hate having the headphone jack on the top instead of the bottom of the phone
Ryan Hernandez
I thought redmi 2 had Sony IMX camera? It was pretty good when I saw it, the blue advance version or whatever they called it
Hudson Johnson
£200-300 budget in the UK. No particular carrier. I just want a headphone jack and NFC. I was thinking about waiting for the Moto G6Plus as it's being rumoured. Not opposed to Xiaomi phones.
Any ideas?
Jordan Perry
>he doesn't use Bromite browser It's like you want to use a slow browser that doesn't respect your freedoms and show you ads.
Nathan Scott
Not sure about UK prices, but you can get the LG G6 used or referbished in burgerland in that range.
Xavier Watson
It's not much more for a new one; so I'd go for that if at all.
Not the biggest fan of the design but I don't really care about that.
Asher Watson
It has, but roms fuck it pretty much. I'm using lineage camera so it's not much of a issue. It also has quick charge 1.0, but I'm surprised that the next versions don't have an upgraded version nor that one.
Jack Carter
the only good android camera is the pixel's and even that is shit.
Julian Harris
Anybody here actually used the Moto E4 (or plus)? Are they sluggish for basic shit? Any glaring flaws?
Jeremiah Sanders
Is LineageOS still the ROM of choice?
Jace Baker
Forgot to mention water resistance in that
I never realized those were so cheap, like £150. Even though it doesn't have water resistance I'd still consider it Nancy is wholesome you slut
Isaac Thomas
Recommend a good phone under 200 € with a good display and that does not look like shit.
Caleb Peterson
>Nancy is wholesome You do realize there are several sex tapes for her, right?
Angel Mitchell
I've been using the E4 (verizon prepaid unlocked) for about 4 months now. I mostly use it for texting and clover and it's been awesome for a $40 phone.
Robert Sullivan
Sounds like you want an iphone 7
Zachary Kelly
Varies from phone to phone, but as far as stock Android based ROMs go, it's the most popular.
Sometimes ROMs based off the phone's stock ROM are better, like Fulmics ROM on the G6.
Andrew Parker
Is there a hugd difference in terms of power between Oneplus 2 and Iphone 6S Plus? My OP2 scores 100k in Antutu while a 6s Plus scores 130k
John Nguyen
Thanks. How's the battery?
Andrew Richardson
Quick question on my v 10 plus 10. When you put the phone in standby the second screen cuts its frame rate in half and its responsiveness gets a lot worse. I get that its doing that for bat life, but is there anyway for me to turn that off? Id much prefer having it responsive all the time.
Dylan Robinson
In short, there isn't a phone that has literally everything you want.
>water resistance >expandable memory >headphone jack >good camera The only phone that meets all this criteria is the G6.
>no glass back The G6 is very durable but has a glass back. Most phones that are water resistant also have glass backs. All phones with wireless charging have glass or plastic backs.
>capacitive buttons Kind of not worth it either way. You're not going to find many phones in 2018 with capacitive buttons. On-screen buttons give you the same functionality but with more screen space for media consumption.
What things are actually most important to you? Performance? Camera? Expandable memory? Headphone jacks? Waterproofing?
Christian Sanchez
Antutu is kind of a meme. Phone-makers know consumers and reviewers use it, so they program their phones to run at higher frequencies when they're being tested.
The things that matter most are: >thermals, how the phone is designed to dissipate heat, slowdowns are mostly caused by thermal throttling >SoC, stay away from non SD phones on Android, phones with 800-series are best, but it varies from chip to chip, for example the SD 810 had bad thermal issues >RAM, up to about 4GB affects performance in general, past that just determines multitasking and how many apps at once you can keep open >how optimized the software (ROM) is, the Pixel phones are extremely well optimized, the iPhone and Oneplus phones are also very well optimized
The only way to truly know what phone is faster is to just use both and see for yourself. Antutu won't tell you that much unless you're playing games.
Jack Hill
I'm interested in this as well. I've read that it can be fixed with an impedence adapter.
Matthew Hill
The S2 Lite is getting Oreo so maybe. I got 2 FOTA upgrades since I received it a few days ago. My S8 I have also has Nougat so that's good enough for me.
Henry Collins
Hi, I want to root my LG G3 Beat running Lollipop (model LG-D772), however, when I tried PurpleDrake-lite's linux script it outputs the following
Rebooting phone... Waiting for device... ....... Found device! Found device, checking if vulnerable...
ERROR: Your phone is not running a compatible software version. No vulnerable mode detected, rebooting phone. We tried to temproot you, and it didn't work. This phone isn't vulnerable, it would appear. Please post on XDA with your phone model, carrier, and SW version in the PurpleDrake thread and someone will take a look. Your phone has been rebooted back to normal system mode, no changes have been made. Thanks for trying!
Are there any current methods to root it which do work on my software version? (Android 5.0.2)
Alexander Price
> (You) >Thanks. How's the battery? I regularly get 6-8 hours SoT
Sebastian Morgan
What is the best custom rom for redmi note 4? Lineage or redmi note?
William Nguyen
damn that's on par with Moto Z Play 5.5" amoled
Zachary Perry
No, you should get a lot more out of the play. The play and plus are about the same though.
Aiden Parker
I heart kirino
Charles Cook
XZ1 vs XZ premium vs XA2 ???
Adam Ward
i want to nakadashi kirino's deepest parts while she ikus
Grayson Roberts
Lewd!
Jaxson Richardson
XZ1. The Premium has a slightly bigger screen, which only utilises its 4K screen resolution for viewing photos and videos. XA2 is mid-range.
Zachary Bennett
Hello friends, I need a ~4.7" phone that's not bottom tier kinda like iphones. Suggestions appreciated, have a good one friends!
Noah Diaz
XZ1 Compact.
Ethan Evans
How about Oneplus 2 running gapples Lineage OS? Good setup?
Josiah Roberts
its very very slow if you do anything but texting.
Matthew Rogers
How does the 630 compare to the 821?
Noah Russell
XZ premium is the better phone
Adam Smith
630 is like a slightly better 625. 821 is way more powerful for gaming
Tyler Anderson
Did I fuck up?
Isaiah Williams
>894$ >Only gets you 64GB with no expandable storage.
Jesus.
Luis Sanders
Unlimited cloud storage tho
Jonathan James
That's expensive. I got a new 256gb iPhone 8 from someone on ebay for $740
I get about 6 hours SoT, with Stamina mode disabled.
Joseph Gutierrez
Sounds decent.
Gabriel Rivera
Why? I haven't heard of anything better being announced.
Nathaniel Nguyen
kek it's not been reported stolen
Joseph Hill
Jesus... Return it
Xavier Clark
STAHP!
Nathan Hill
new Thread
Anthony Martinez
Hnnnng!
Landon Gonzalez
At that price why care about camera quality
Cooper Harris
What phone?
Benjamin Jenkins
Yo I just bought a near mint S7 for $200 is it still good for 2018? I'm waiting the S8 to drop in price but I got this as I need it for work.
Ethan Anderson
ye it's good
Elijah Watson
I've never understood people who ask if they made a good purchase after the fact.
Oliver Rogers
I forgot to mention if I don't like it or if I get talked out of it I can sell it for $300-$350 on my local listings which would make me $100-150 profit.
Benjamin Roberts
Nah. Samsungs age like milk. Their updates+touchjizz make them hella laggy in no time, and their batteries eat shit way faster than they should. Only moderately good deal is the edge cause it has a much bigger battery. Also IIRC there's unlikely to ever be root/roms for the S7 but there are on the S8.
Michael Hall
If that were true people would just buy out swappa constantly to turn them over.
Noah Moore
Fuck well do you think it will last a good 6-10 months? What is this swappa you are talking about?
Jordan Powell
>do you think it will last a good 6-10 months? There are people still using goddamned S6's. Worst case you'll be annoyed for the better part of a year.
Swappa.com is like ebay without the annoying parts. No "for parts" listing/cracked screens/banned devices and all listings are manually approved by staff. It's normal to buy from people with 0 feedback and just trust the system.
Blake Sanders
Yeah that's true and holy shit that's neat af
Kevin Thomas
redmi note 4
Bentley Young
Galaxy S8 with Nova Launcher. Looking for suggestions on how to improve home screen. I like the general theme I got going on, but would like to clean it up a little bit.
