bigger screens are more practical, smaller screens can have better ergonomics but you can only show so much information at a time before everything starts to feel cramped, when you're typing on a small phone the keyboard itself covers half of the display

also shit battery life

Is something slightly larger than the iPhone SE or an SE size phone itself unreasonable? Those aren’t huge.

Most consumers are fucking idiots. They have no discernment and will buy anything with the right brand on it. Apple has been milking its consumer base for a decade. They break the old phones with software updates right before a new release. They remove features like headphone jack, fingerprint sensor, charger in the box and actually charge more for it. Wait until they put a yearly fee on using iOS, these idiots will keep buying iPhones and iPad's like nothing changed.

Poco F6 and F6 Pro go for around 400-500 euro. SD 8s Gen 3 (overclocked SD 7+ Gen 3) and SD 8 Gen 2 (last year's flagship) respectively. You might also be able to find a Xiaomi 14 (SD 8 Gen 3) for around 700-750.

I still regret not getting an iPhone 13 Mini while it was still new and relevant. We're more likely to break past the 7 inch barrier than return to sub-6 inch phones anytime soon.We're never getting a 5.4 inch smartphone with flagship internals ever again, and by now I'm too used to modern Android and 120Hz LTPO screens to downgrade to a 13 Mini in current year.

I did the ADB battery dump thing on my phone which I've been using for about 7-8 months, bought brand new. Apparently the battery's degraded to 98% over those months with around 130 charge cycles. Is that degradation within expectations, too fast, slower than expected, etc.?
I was doing regular charging ("whenever it needs to be charged") for the first 2-3 months, but then I switched to charging it only 20% to 80% on most days, and only up to 100% if I'm going to be traveling a bunch and need it to last 6+ hours of SoT with mobile data.

We actually have the technology to make this a reality at this very moment, but it doesn't exist because they wouldn't be able to sell you another disposable piece of shit with a massive crease for $1500 next year.

That is true. You'll probably be able to grab them for about $100 off around black Friday. They also don't hold their resale value at all (which to be fair, phones generally don't).
I do not like the price creep that the Pixel phones have been undergoing in the first place. IMO Pixel A should be $400, Base Pixel should be $700, and the Pixel Pro should be $900-$100. I dont think Google can compete well in the ultra high end quite yet.

I don't hate iPhones, I just think iOS is a drastically inferior mobile OS for power users like me, it's okay for normies that don't need unlockable bootloaders, proper sideloading and superuser access though

what I hate is the huge amount of gratuitous worshipping, boot licking and ball sucking iPhones and pretty much everything Apple related gets by normies and "tech" experts

yeah I get it, iPhones and iOS are fine for the majority of people, and yes, they do look pretty, guess what, I don't give a fuck about it because a phone without shit like Termux support, proper sideloading and restricted capabilities is worthless for my use case

I don't know if I would go so far as that, it's just that I can't remember if this is normal, or if it's depleting faster due to age.

I'm not opposed to replacing the battery or buying a new phone altogether, I just wanted to see if a 40% loss in 8 hours would justify it. Judging by your response, it would be justified.

Battery life becomes reasonable as long as it can last you from waking up to going to bed, no matter how much you want to use the phone in those 16-18 hours. Unplugging in the morning at 80% (battery protection set to maximum) and plugging it in after you're in bed and ready to sleep at 15% or higher. Any higher battery usage in a single day causes battery degradation, and while that would be fine initially, you might find the phone struggling to last you the entire day in 2 years.

Some of these are giga nitpicky.

Most importantly the keyboard stuff and sideloading cracked/ad-free versions of premium apps.

Think about it this way: with a more powerful phone you can keep it for longer before it starts struggling with the ever-bloating apps and websites you might use daily. With light usage you might even be able to get 48 hours between charges out of an S24U, which would be comfy wouldn't it?

I use a manga plus sub on my fold 6 to do pretty much that. It's a portable tablet basically.

i have no idea. it's been a nightmare trying to find a case that actually checks my boxes
>p9 pro XL
>solid colors, preference for blue
>magsafe
>at least a little damned protection
and it turns out even pela doesn't have magsafe built in, they want you to stick a magnet array to your phone and there's a cutout on the back that leaves airgaps between the phone and the case
i have a mous super slim that i'm keeping, it's comfy in the hand and even though it's plain black i like how it looks. but i never want to take this thing out of the house. no way this thing would survive against concrete. if they stuffed their air pocket dealie into the slim and gave it to me in a nice blue, this godforsaken general would have two fewer posts.

Should I really buy an S24U?
I mean, I don't even know what I'm waiting for. The S25U? The black market deal? God literally failing down thunder on me?
Why can't I pull the trigger? Because I still have a (half dead) phone? A tablet I can still use? A PC?

Great phone. Go for it.

The meme mini display is honestly part of the reason I'm considering it. I've also heard good things about Motorola's Android, but I haven't used Android in general since I wanna say the Galaxy S8? Think I'll have any problems switching back over? I know RCS is on the way for iPhones so if nothing else I'm not tweaking over iMessage.

Last time I had iphone it was 4, so I have no idea how are they nowadays at all, but I had honor 10 from 2018 and switched to moto g34 which is the cheapest snapdragon Motorola, and I am very pleased with their ROM, feels like stock android. It's pretty much near stock android, without the meme AI things you get on pixel phones. I've heard oppo also has very basic near stock android too, you could compare their flip to motorola one.

get the S23U as that's essentially the same exact phone but maybe 5% slower and save some money

If you want very small phone check Jelly Max 5g.
>>
>>102289778
I'm using Jelly 2e right now, but unfortunately it's too small. I was interested in buying Jelly Max, but 5 inches seem too big for me, 4,5 is the sweet spot. Unfortunately, the phone isn't available in the country where I live.
>>
>>102289778
This would be the perfect phone if it wasn't so thick. I swear making a great small phone is impossible in the modern smartphone space.
>S23/S24 - not actually small, just normal (also applies to the base model Pixels, iPhones, Xperia 5 and 10 series, and Xiaomi number series)
>Jelly Max - too thick, dubious software support
>iPhone 13 Mini - too iOS, too poor battery life, no 120Hz
>iPhone SE 2022 - too iOS, WAY too poor battery life, generally very outdated hardware, not particularly small either
>Zenfone 10 - not actually small, barely smaller than S23, only 2 years of software updates
>Flip Foldables - too expensive, actually BIGGER than any other phone on this list when unfolded
For me it was a tie between S23 and 13 Mini, and I went for the S23 thanks to it being Android.

After all, why should I just buy both an Android and an iPhone and carry both of them with me everywhere?

I still keep one of those as my backup phone. The battery life is really poor, and it hasn't gotten updates past Android 9, but I'd use it if it could last me the day and had an up to date OS. The performance isn't even that bad for daily shit and even light gaming. You wouldn't believe how smooth it runs Subway Surf kek

>>102290179
ever tried to replace its battery and maybe install lineageOS?
>>
>>102289088

have you tried Carved?
>>
>>102290209
I have been thinking about it, but I'm not sure if even a brand new battery + Lineage21 will make it resonable to use in 2024. Can the tiny battery even handle ~4 hours of SoT with modern apps and Android?
Breaking banking apps and NFC payments would normally also be a concern, but being stuck on Android 9 has already broken my bank's app and the only way to add a card from my bank to Wallet is by using the official app, so that's already broken even on stock software.

Straight up copying Apple, or does the TOF sensor on the front have a real practical use to excuse the large camera cutout?

>>102290780
Gives you 3d facial scan like the iPhone, but yeah they did copy the dynamic island almost 1:1 (software side)

A lot cheaper than the s24 ultra and has a much better battery with silicone carbon tech tho. Not to mention how smooth the animations look like compared to OneUI.
Kinda tempted honestly.
>>
>>102290853
The S24U wins in design alone thanks to the flat sides, flat screen and sharp screen corners.
The Magic 6 Pro does seem like the better option for SD 8 Gen 3 on a slightly lower budget though, it is ~250 euro cheaper than the S24U in my country when both are configured with 512GB storage. 775 euro and 1025 euro respectively for the Honor and the Samsung.
>>
>>102290932
Damn bro. That's cheap as fuck? Is that something from your carrier? Because the device alone when bought without a carrier is
1500 euro for the s24 ultra base version
1300 euro for the magic 6 pro 512 version (no lower available)
Where are you from?
>>
>>102290998
To be fair, the S24U is around ~1200 euro for the 512GB when looking at popular mainstream tech stores you can just walk into with money and walk out with a phone. I'm looking at the prices from slightly more suspicious websites that only sell online and deliver with courier.
Country is Bulgaria and my comparison websites were Technopolis (very trustworthy) and BuyBest/ALLGSM (suspicious). I've bought 2 phones from ALLGSM, Poco M3 for my mother back in 2021 and a Galaxy A15 4G for my grandmother earlier this year, both at prices way under what Technopolis was selling them for. IIRC the A15 was offered at Technopolis at around 200 euro, and I got it for just under 150 from ALLGSM. The Poco was a similarly great deal at just over 100 euro, and the website even serviced it (inside the warranty period) when it randomly stopped working one day.
My point is these phones might be illegal imports from Germany for all I know, but they're great deals if you want to take the risk.

I can upgrade with Verizon. My only "free" option is the Pixel 9 pro XL. Is it worth it for a free upgrade? I would rather get an S24 pro, but thats not an option. I keep hearing the 9PXL is buggy.

You have to realize that most mutts are not white, and most of these "people" are unironically cattle consumers. Imagine licking the boot of a corporation that actively contributes to the replacement of actual white Americans. Wow, you own GoyPhone you really owned that jeet, but let's ignore that white Americans are a shrinking minority in their own country. Pure impotence.

S24 Pro doesn't exist maybe you mean the Plus or the Ultra. The 9 Pro XL will be a good phone, but personally I would wait for the non-XL variant 9 Pro due to liking more compact blowers. I'm probably going to hold on to this Pixel 7 until the 10 series comes out with much better SoC.
>>
>>102291490
1 Mark what? There are a few duds in the lineage, especially the one with the 8 Gen 1 processor. If you got it so cheaply its probably a few years old and you'll get no future feature and security updates since Sony sucks at this.
>>
>>102291497
Yes I meant the S24 Plus. Feel like I should just wait and hope Verizon comes out with a deal that let's me upgrade to the S24 plus instead.
>>
>>102291549
The original one from 2019. Got it new off of ebay, the EMEA one Sim version. Sadly only has 4g and the battery is a mere 3330mAh but I'm not playing games, only phone call, text messages, browsing and watching YouTube.
>>
>>102291490
>Price was 200€
Seems kinda steep for a 5 year old phone without any of the modern goodies like 4k-5k mAh batteries, fast charging, 5G and high refresh rate screens.

Americans may be dumber than donating to charity but don't think that this only appies to them. All throughout the western world, and even xountries like China, the IPhones is regarded as a status symbol. People covet sratus symbols as it is a way to appear rich because they create this image than they live a lavish lifestyle. In truth, many end up indebted for buying an item that shouldn't be considered to be anything beyond a communication and multimedia playing device.
Just look at Zuckerberg and hos plain looking shirts that look as if he went to a thrift shop. That shirt costs upwards of 500+ but no one could tell because there's no logo. Truly rich people don't have to show off, they KNOW they are, and everybody else KNOWS so.

Oh, that's interesting! I personally have a soft spot for Pixel Android over OneUI. Recently, my girlfriend and I swapped phones—I moved from a Z Flip5 to a Pixel 7 following my souring on foldables and a screen protector debacle. Even though it feels like a hardware downgrade, she's sweet enough to balance it out with some cash to even the trade.

I'm upgrading from an S20 FE, so both the Pixel 9 and S24 will probably feel like upgrades. I don't really play games on my phone so maybe the hardware won't be an issue. Does the P9 Pro XL have a decent battery? My s20 FE dies pretty fast nowadays.
>>
>>102291326
I can't say my experience has been buggy, to the point where I'd even recommend the 9XL. as long as you don't want 120fps stable in wuthering waves or whatever the phone is really good.

> Which iphones dont have volte and in which countries?
As I said, volte is a white list.
> I thought it was enabled anywhere there is volte.
No.
If vendor don't want to provide local carriers with data packages and keys for volte to work, carrier can't do much about it.

Most common thing is pixel phones outside of western hemisphere.
> "only Pixel X supports volte/5g in Y country, not Pixel X-1 or X-2, because they weren't sold there."
That's how it's works on greater scale.
Other vendors just aren't Google.
The only other phone vendor that doing this is Sony. They patched volte in Russia.

I'm getting ~12h over wifi and ~8 with mixed cellular but I don't rely on cellular often enough to give a good baseline for someone who's without wifi for extended periods
Over the weekend if I stay in the house most of the time, It'll last two days since I'm not using it as much.
I don't have any bad things to say about the screen. it's big and pretty. the super actua stuff is no joke and the max brightness under direct sunlight is excellent. the only thing they could've done to improve it was use the glass the S24U uses for antireflectivity.

>>102291798
Wrong, Orwell is quite correct that average man makes country. The idea that high IQ individuals can form a country is laughable. Enjoy living in racial méxico with your superior IQ. You simply get eaten alive, working class and average makes or breaks the country. Shitndia is a good example of this, think about the last female doctor that got raped and killed after by multiple jeets at the hospital. She was high IQ compare to average shitndian, didn't help her it seems.

>Is your phone's audio, music and media experience gonna be good when you see that Hi-Res Audio or DTS X Ultra badge? Or "tuned by JBL" or "tuned by Harman Kardon"?

The opposite. Phone speakers are too small and no amount of tuning can salvage them so I won't waste any more words on them. For sound over the headphones all these audio enhancements just distort the intended tuning of your headhpones and sometimes degrade the sound information on top of it as well. May be useful for movies to simulate a wider soundstage, but aforementioned drawbacks still apply.
The correct way is to turn all enhancements, bass boosts, Dolby Atmos (especially Dolby Atmos) etc. off and get a portable USB DAC, plug your headphones in and I assure you will actually hear some improvement.
