>>101390913Sorry for the late reply Anon. If you're still there:1. Sadly, you can't shoot 50MP RAW, it would be interesting to try, though. I hope future software updates will add this options.2. I didn't try astrophotography yet, though I plan to buy a gimbal with a tripod and try it at least once. I'm usually more interested in daylight shootings, though thanks to the large sensor size, it does pretty good at night, even when using 4.3x zoom lens (but if there are no sources of light at all, camera app lags HEAVILY when switching lenses and is barely usable. I guess it's understandable considering it's not suited for this kind of usage).And another photo, this time of a lil fella

Recommend a cheap phone around $200. I was thinking about getting the Samsung A35.
>>101391329Based Redmagic, fuck those phones with oversized camera bumps
>>101396307Can you get a used S20 FE or S21 FE for that price? I'd recommend one of those unless you really care about future android and security updates.
I asked for recommendations to replace my S23 Ultra last thread and people told me to just keep it. Why? I thought there'd be more anti-Samsung shills here.

I got an S23 recentlyActually love OneUI, definitely shits on stock android 14, but there's layers and layers of that nasty AI / data gathering / assistant bullshit that I'm even bothered about installing fucking KurobaEx on this thing. Reminds me of current Windows in that aspect. What's some shit I should disable or maybe take advantage of?
>>101396920If Chinese phones and Sony can do it, they could surely put one on the Ultra

I have to say I'm quite Happy with my S23U that I use right now but It's good to see that other companies are not sleeping and putting out good stuff as wellDefinitely do get a tripod though, if you are into this its a must have I'm a bit surprised though that the X100 series doesn't have the option to shoot 50mp raw, that was one of the big points of the S23U and the new additions in ExpertRaw Do you have some sort of page/account where I can view more of your stuff?
>>101396539Unless you're getting a foldable or a Xperia solely for the headphone jack and sd card slot, everything is a downgrade.

Big aliexpress sale. Looking to get myself poco x6, mostly worried about emulation, I know snapdragon is better for that so not looking at the x6 pro cause it has mediatek and the games where the performance would help (switch) won't run anyway, but are there any phones in the 200€ pricerange witha snap thats better than 7s g2?Also any clip on controllers thats cheap and decent?
just got a google pixel 8a, and I gotta say im loving the phone but my only issue is it gets pretty hot when im using my data or playing a not so intensive game. im guessing its still better than the 7's overheating but if there is anything I can do to make tthe performance better let me know. I see alot of people mention graphene os and not sure how it would improve it
>>101399069Its 3/4 now with the VI but yeah still pretty low
>>101399769It's better but still below the competition. Not to mention lineage OS adoption for new phones is slow as fuck.

Are there any non-biased arguments against the Sony Xperia 1 V? It looks like I can get a decent deal on it and not pay it all at once, the headphone jack and SD card slot alone are worth the price

>>101402366>No LTPOno idea what that is>2 years of software supportThere are people with 6+ year old phones that don't seem bothered by the lack of support, how would this affect me?
>>101401724There are a few but they are minor things, like the soft telephoto camera, 4K non LTPO screen being a drain, unreliable fingerprint reader, software is quite buggy, the screen has black crush and color shift issues, the camera software isn't that good in automatic mode, slow charging, no macro mode, it gets warm quite easily and I think $1000 dollars is too much for a one year old Android phone
>>101396966Uninstall/disable as much as you canPut everything you can't into deep sleeping mode/restrict battery usageIf you want to take it a step further, get a firewall app and firewall any apps you don't want connecting to the internetIf you are more autistic you can remove via adb
>>101393241S20 FE (SD865). They're like $150
>>101402789The only things that really make me hesitate there are slow charging, getting warm and unreliable fingerprint reader, damn it. I was this close to buying it.
>>101402093Why & how is someone's suffering based?
How many watts is the non-fast charging of smartphones? And how do I figure this out for my specific phone?I have a Samsung A53 5G, and I can't for the life of me find info on charging when fast charging is turned off. Every website only lists "up to 25W fast charging" on their specs/review.Is it 10W? 15W? 20W? How do I figure this out?
>>101402862Also the SD card reader reads at 30mb/s and writes at about 8. And the flashlight is garbage for some reason
>>101402861S20 FE is still expensive here. Also, I'm using one. I want retard cheap. Like Seanigger cheap for my dad.
>>101402898>How many watts is the non-fast charging of smartphones?Anything less than 15W is not fast charging.
>>101402899And if you really want to be pedantic the headphone jack is nothing special. If you're expecting something like LG's Quad DAC then don't. Euro models have handicapped jacks as well
Yay or Nay?Exynos 2200India 39,999 rupees/$479
>>101402947Do not redeem sir. Exynos is bloody bitch bastard sir.
>>101402920so does that mean it just caps to the hardware you have? For example, I use a 20W charger and a USB-C to USB-C cable that caps at 15W. Does that mean when I have fast charging turned off, the phone charges at 14W?
Did smartphones always get this hot when used?Two of my phones, one is high end and metal, the other is mid range and plastic, get pretty hot even if I'm managing files and reading email.I don't remember phones that I had back in 2010-2015 getting hot at all.
>>101403026I'm not very sure, but I think drops to 9W, then.
I want a small ultrawide tablet as a music player under my main screen.Is there anything that can do this function? I don't want to use Spotify on my work computer.

>>101399663Graphene is a privacy and security oriented OS, it'll make the games even slower because of it's hardened memory allocator, being the first OS to use MTE in production etc.
>>101403971Why don't other OSs like lineage just adopt Graphene's tech? I am bummed that a good OS is bound to overpriced pixels that also dropped jack slot

entry level phone before the end of the yearlooking at/waiting for samsung a16 or a06/s, thoughts?
>>101404231Second hand Galaxy S20 FE can be found for the same price as the Galaxy A15. Unless you really care about updoots you should get an older used flagship instead of an ugly $150 chonker with huge bezels and terrible SoC.
>>101403028Let me guess you have a high end phone with 888, exynos 2100/2200 or 8gen1
Europoor here, my s24 is supposed to be delivered tomorrow and I just found out no snapdragon outside of US.Would there be that much difference (if I get the exynos) for everyday usage? Spotify, navigation, photos, messaging etc.
>>101404230>>bezels too thick >>GIGANTIC chin No one cares about bezels but braindead YouTuber sheeps
>>101404312I bought an S23 instead of something cheaper and with possibly longer battery life because of the thin even bezels and the compact 6.1inch screen size.Hell, iPhones have had that since the X back in fucking 2017 when the average phone (including mine at the time) still looked like pic related. If you're not gonna have a full corner to corner display with thin and even bezels, you might as well add a proper forehead (for the camera and speaker) and chin (for physical nav buttons and front-facing speaker), right?
>>101404312Not him but bezels are a waste of pocket space.Phones in 2024 should not be significantly larger than their screens.
>>101404298Nope, got myself an iPhone 15 Pro last week.
>>101402789Mediocre screen brightness and 2 years of updates
I hate big phones I am absolutely sick of 6"+ phones in my pocket but the only real solution to that with a modern phone is apple The main reason I stick with android phones is because I want cracked apks to steal premium services from youtube, spotify, etc and block adscan iphones also do this?
>>101404046>Why don't other OSs like lineage just adopt Graphene's tech?Skill issues. Pajeets develop LineageOS. DivestOS is based on LineageOS, but implements many of the security features Graphene offers. Still, a device with no relockable bootloader & missing firmware updates is a meme and shouldn't be used. /g/ spergs know a little about heartbleed yet can't comprehend that Android devices have their big share of critical firmware vulnerabilities, some of which can't be mitigated in software.>>101404046>jack slot2016 tech. You won't use a headphone jack if you're serious about audio anyway.
>>101402862Just get it. The other anon is nitpicking.
My P20 Pro is finally showing its age, heard that the S24s are pretty much the peak of android currently? Eyeing the S24 ultra but is the plus variant worth anything? Seems to be lacking the pen and has a smaller screen.

>>101404771>can iphones also do this?Nope. Get a Xcover 5, Unihertz Jelly Max when it comes out or get a Z Flip 5 and only use the outer screen.

Evening gentlemenI was looking for a phone that had an SD card reader, headphone jack, NFC and the smallest form factor possible on gsmarena and the only compelling phones there were the Xperia 5 V and 10 VIAre they really worth it? And should I care about the lack of security updates? if not I'll just forfeit and get an S23 that's much smaller and just as light
>>101404851It's not really nitpicking. Sony doesn't make phones that justify their price tags, considering the relatively poor camera performance, thermals and build quality

>>101406168There's literally nothing wrong with being a fucking kike.
samsung at their last event said multiple times that a lot of their ai shit can run on-device only. is there anything else that i can set to offline? i've never used the health stuff in the past, but i probably would try it if i could keep it on device.
>>101404311>>101406310s24 exynos should be fine. It's a smaller phone so cooling will never be good no matter what processor it has. But the efficiency and battery life seems to be similar to the Snapdragon.
Just buy an iPhone and sync it with a MacBook. your quality of life will go up
>>101406325Most people are retarded and think a hard shell case is better. That is not true, the squishy nature of the silicone will absorb impacts. A hard shel case will just transfer the shock. They are the same idiots who believe a screen protector will protect your screen against shattering. They are also the same idiots you see in the overworls with broken screens and a screen protector on top of their broken screen.
>>101406510thanks anon>>101405991people with cases should have a matching helmet lolnever could tolerate them, sometimes I take the random silicone one I have if I'm going on vacation or something but normally only rock a back sticker if the phone is slippery

New phone time soon. Flagship.Can't decide if I want to go folding, in which case it's a toss up between the new Smasnug fold or the upcoming Pixel Fold 2.If I stick to normal form factor it's between the upcoming Pixel 9 Pro and or an iPhone. Currently using a Pixel 6 Pro that I've had since launch and while it has some annoyances, there are also a stack of small Pixel features that I'd miss elsewhere.Call screening alone is enough to make me consider the Pixel Fold over the Z fold despite the various compatibility issues the Pixel Fold has (Play store treats it as a tablet).
Not phone related but since there's no tablet general I'll ask hereI'm looking for a good tablet for mainly video consumption and chessAll I want is a good quality screen (OLED/AMOLED/gayled etc.) and preferably something not THAT expensive (prob max 300€ I guess although less would be good)I don't care about everything else (performance/camera/OS/storage/ram) all it'll do is chess and youtubePreferably around 12" although idk about size
>>101409502What would make you consider an iPhone over an android?
>>101408524> It won't make a difference in real life, it's just spec sheet bragging. But stillSo no one needs it
>>101408466> No internal monologueI don't have that.t. S24 ultra user, previous phone was OnePlus 9 pro
>>101409502> Can't decide if I want to go foldingYou don't.>>101409527You can't buy good phone for 300 euro now. Same with tablet.
>>101409626>You can't buy good phone for 300 euro now. Same with tablet.ShieeeetGuess I'll wait few years then

>>101408466Lol
>>101409502The Z Fold 5's One UI is much better and it has Samsung DeX. Pixel Fold has a nice sized outer screen.
>>101410443Pixels just got the ability to use desktop mode recently iirc
>>1014104436 got a slightly wider outer screen though, they must be sort of similar by now, no?
>>101406541I have genuinely never wanted anything from my laptop to cross onto my phone
>>101408466>>101409939>>101410423Samsung is continually losing ground to Apple and your desperation is showing. Just die with diligence.
Redpill me on the motorola G54/G84, they can be had for 120/180 on sale. What makes them so cheap and why shouldn't I buy it? I only use email apps, banking apps, kruobaex and vpnThere must be a reason why I hear less about these than even the budget samsungs
>>101410619Not true, btw. Stay cucked though, iSlave.
Are there a pastebin with the must-have Android apps ?

Looking for a good, cheap phone for my dad. Budget around $300-$400 AUD, and I want something new so it will last a while. Will mostly be for calls and betting apps, so a long battery life and fast charging would be nice.I've always used OnePlus so I was thinking of a Nord CE3 Lite
>>101409527>12" OLED display>€300 impossible , invest a little more money and get a Tab S9 or settle on a cheap Lenovo tablet
>>101412300Galaxy A35 or Pixel 8A low end OnePlus are e-waste
>>101393002>deferring the full cost of a device over 24 months with 0% interest is moronicYou're the moron, if it's the same overall price it's always better to defer payments over time. Particularly nowadays when the price of goods is always going up, being locked into last year's price is always an advantage.
>>101410619I have an S23 but I don't give a shit about samsung, my previous phones were chinkphones and those were better than apple anything too because they weren't homosexual, had battery, can block ads, torrent and access the devices file system.Chinkphones had 30w+ charging, fast CPUs and 120hz notchless panels like 5 years ago, where does apple innovate
>Network: 4G/5G>OS: Android>RAM: 6GB+>Storage: 128GB+>microSD>3.5mm jackWhich phone with a decent camera should I buy besides Xperia phones ?
May I ask something a bit naive, what's the appeal of the Samsung Galaxy Fold? Aside from a smaller form factor when you fold it to put in your pocket, are there any other significant benefits or advantages of a folding phone?
>>101412239> must-have Android appsIt's android. Download what you want.If I told you that this app is must have you will download it?What kind of list so you need?

>>101412778Some people need the portable tabletMe, I only bought the fold 6 because it was cheaper than a 24U and I can always trade it in for a 25U and lose a couple hundred dollars maybe

>>101413253Not anytime soon apparently, maybe never
>>101409552I am platform agnostic and they're rock solid devices for day-to-day phone stuff. There are also a few specific pros for them too (I use other Apple products already, have a real-world use for the lidar, a small selection of niche apps I use for work are more polished/reliable). I guess that's the crux of my decision - they all cost about the same, with the folders being a bit more expensive and I'm really splitting hairs when it comes to pros/cons.

>>101412314Cheers, Telstra has a really good deal on the A35 right now. I'll go with that
>>101413625Let us know what the phone is like.I always bought the flagship and used it 2~3 years before buying another but I'm starting to wonder why I shouldn't just get a budget phone.
>>101413625I hope Smasnugg starts slimming down the bezels (especially chin) on their A-series phones next year, because it's getting ridiculous.Redmi Note 13 makes the Galaxy A35 look like a phone from 3-4 years ago, despite both being this year's offerings in that same price range and the Redmi having worse hardware and software.
>>101404176>dat jellystarkek anons, pls tell me its worth itI was planning on pic related or something similarI just want storage for music, group texting, and would prefer a removable battery. I also saw a galaxy fold going for about $300 but its a little too big and pricey for mepls advise
holy fuck why are the a series phones so thick and heavy
>>101404176>literal e-waste
Got an iPhone 15 Pro Max in April after 15 years of using Android, but not really liking it Thinking to sell it and get an Xperia 1 VI insteadyay or nay?
don't care, still getting the A55.

>>101414081The iPhone 13 Mini would fit all my requirements if it ran Android. I'd even be willing to overlook the mediocre battery life, the price tag, and the notch.I actually wanted a Mini when the 12 Mini was first unveiled, but it was way out of my price range at the time.

What are the smallest phones that are compatible with AT&T HD Voice? All I have is this list to go on and I can't google each one individually, there are hundreds. I fucking hate big displays, I need something midrange in power but ideally with like a 4-5 inch screen. And I refuse to use an iPhone SE. I think the Unihertz Atom XL is basically the perfect phone but unfortunately it's not on the list.https://www.att.com/scmsassets/support/wireless/devices-working-on-att-network.pdf>inb4 use the databases in the stickyUnless I am being a retard and not seeing it, the databases let you search for frequency but don't actually say whether or not it's on the whitelist to use AT&T.
>>101404312>>101404399Bezels are actually a feature. Make the phone easier to handle without pressing buttons on the screen especially during one-handed operation.(I'm convinced modern phone design is a conspiracy to make phones harder to use one handed while driving a car, and I will not stop doing it)
>>101394471I bought a Moto g14 for $150 AUD (which is like $100 USD) and it's a piece of shit, but for the price it's phenomenal. Even tho I ended up getting a S24 Ultra, I'll vouch for Moto.
How is OnePlus in terms of sales and discounts?
Already put a massive scratch on my brand new phone :(
Am I going crazy or did Android remove the per app battery optimization on the June feature drop?
>>101415242Never mind I found it

What is the current meme flagship killer phone right now?
>>101415578Because our carriers keep adding nonstandard features.
>>101414140> The iPhone 13 Mini would fit all my requirements>REEE I WANT SMALL PHONE>NO NOT LIKE THATEvery time lmao
>>101415578I live in a rural place where AT&T is the only one that gives me good coverage. Trust me, I'd switch if I could.
>>101415693> Because our carriers keep adding nonstandard features.This is standard feature
>>101415949I am retarded then, AT&T's info on it makes it sound proprietary but it is just VoLTE.

>>101416049I guess the jews succeeded in turning us into niggercattle
me mum trashed her phone and needs a new phone, around 700€ max with big and/or expandable storage, good enough camera for snapshits and boomer friendly. also needs wireless charging. won't mind chinkshit, she was happy with an redmi 8 besides the storage space.something like the xiaomi 13t pro would be good but it needs wireless charging. i dont understand why such new phones dont have it.
>>101408422what is apple pay?
>>101416049>it is just VoLTESo on Faggit people are saying you can use phones that are not on AT&T's whitelist with a third party MVNO like Red Pocket. Is that true? If so what frequencies do I need to look for?
>>101415816Android...
>try to do literally anything on a new phone>it asks for 338734878972 permissions and other random shitwhat the fuck bros
I wonder who will be the next Manufacturer to think that they can fill the >Untapped small form factor marketThat everyone talks about wanting online, and then nobody buys the phones so they abandon the idea after two iterations. Though maybe after Apple and Asus both had financial flops with their Mini and Zenfones, maybe nobody is willing to try anymore...
>>101416697Just remember than an app wanting access to phone/contacts MOST LIKELY needs that so it can pause the content if you get a phone call while using it.
>>101394939I don't think phones are truly 10 bit anyway. Just 8 bits and FRC but at hardware level
>>101413144>I only bought the fold 6 because it was cheaper than a 24UIs it??
The LG V60 is the greatest phone ever made.>5000 mah battery>expandable storage thru sd card slot>quad dac headphone jack that drives even the beefiest of headphones>dual screen case as an optionBut seriously. Should I just get a new phone or stick with my aging v60? The only phone that has what I want is the chink shit Red Magic 9S Pro, new phones suck ass. Fuck apple, and fuck samsung for ruining the smartphone industry by removing useful features like headphone jacks and expandable storage. Flagship androids are just iPhones nowadays.

It's not that hard but you need instructions for your phone.
>>101417690>It's not universally available.Maybe in your third world country, contactless payment is everywhere in mine
So should I pretty much forget about trying to use a Xiaomi phone in the US? On red pocket (AT&T). I'm assuming I'll run into problems getting it "certified" or whatever, or otherwise signal problems.I just need something rootable & it seems like everything for the US is samshit with locked-down bootloaders

>>101417690>why are mutts slaves to carriers>how do mutts live with whitelist carriersI answered this already. Muttland is fucking big and the cell phone carriers don't care about investing in coverage for the less densely populated areas. I live in East Bumfuck, Nowhere, USA, and the only cell carrier in my area that provides adequate coverage happens to be AT&T. I'm trying to move to an MVNO instead of AT&T prepaid which I'm currently using because I hate them, but switching to Verizon or T-Mobile or whatever is not an option.And for frequencies I mean which of these frequencies would mean a phone will work with AT&T towers? I'm trying to pick a phone to use with the MVNO to buy but the search database doesn't tell you what freqs you need for what carriers.
I have an iphone 6splus, and I can't upgrade ios anymore. My data and many of my apps won't function unless I'm on the latest ios version.Would it be possible to just jailbreak my phone and spoof the version number in order to keep using my phone rather than replacing it?
I've been using my OnePlus 9 Pro for awhile now and I've been meaning to upgrade. I don't want the newest OnePlus 12 because of the price but, in between those model what's the best one?
