Why the iPhone hate? You're instigating flamewars OP. You use a s24u lol.
Age of privacy is over thanks to Palantir. your phone without a sim can be traced anywhere in the world due to ancient telco equipment in use by telcos all around the world called Signalling System No. 7 (SS7) '. all kinds of spy agencies and police and even organized crime figures with enough cash can get illegal access to the network. every sms, call, location, phone/sim identifiers can be collected in an instant. the global telecommunications system really is that compromised. who nose why.:^)TKD! TJD! THD!
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra & the iPhone 16 Pro Max showing us why they are the global sales leaders.Higher build quality devices with better service and OS support for a few years!No low end ccp meme phone will ever surpass better quality companies.
Reminder to keep your phone screens clean and especially make sure your screen protector is applied properly and is clean too. It lowers the quality of what you're seeing if the screen protector has pubes and air bubbles under it.
>Android flagships and budget phones are being outsold by iPhones globally. A base model iPhone 16 phone this year and the base model iPhone 15 did the same thing last year. Grim
Q2 Results:Apple and Samsung Won Again.Now that google is locking down its operating system I'm predicting that iphone sales are going to skyrocket exponentially.

Tech blogging websites and reviews are the best way to tell if a smartphone brand is good or not.
It's important to read the reviews of people who actually owned the phone.
Good morning sirs. Samsung Exynos 1630 waiting room / Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 waiting room / Dimensity 6500 waiting room.They had to stop making these chips because they would have been as fast as the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 by this point.

Who pissed off the shartytroon
>>106593050>Moto G Power 2024You're joking right? That phone is worse than the S10e he's replacing.
OnePlus won!!
If you don't buy a OnePlus, you're fucking retarded.

>>106593283Are you the spamming schizo? Because if not, if he doesn't play any games, the Moto Power is going to do just fine for listening to music, roleplaying, and basic shit. He's not going to get a better phone for the price.
>>106593313He might as well just keep his current phone.The Moto G has a worse screen, it's not as water resistant, much worse cameras, larger size, chatbot doesn't support Mediatek as well as Snapdragon, slower SoC.Both have SD card slot and headphone jacks.
>>106593419Fuck off spammer
>>106593419>What's a good upgrade from an S10e mine is starting to go.>mine is starting to go.>starting to go.He can't keep his current phone because it's literally dying. Also, no, Termux is not going to perform any worse on a Mediatek than it will on a Snapdragon. Sure, the 7020 is a slower SOC than the Snapdragon 855, but none of that is going to matter when his storage and his battery has been decaying for the last 6 years of use.
>>106592550Anyone using the S25+? Do you recommend it?
I'm gonna buy a 13 mini in 2025.
If the Stylus 2026 has the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4, that will be the budget phone of the year (for burgers). All they have to do is not shed the headphone jack and micro sd card. That's literally all they have to do, and they would win.Also, give the Power 2026 a Dimensity 7050.

>>106592710I got my dad a Moto G04s last year and despite some stupid app that tried to install games, software was as lean as it gets.

>>106597904cool and good luck
>>106597496do we really need faster charging? where's the limit in how many watts are we going to fry our batteries with?
>>106598001you dont need more than 40-50w anyway
>>106598001lol I was waiting for the Samshill copeThis $1000 phone will have slower charging than the A56 btw
>>106598066nta, but who cares lol. it's still going to outsell your favorite brand and outsell the competition.
>>106598001Fast charge is stupid.I want to charge as slow as possible.It preserves battery life and I charge at night when I'm sleeping anyways.
>>106598109>>106598413Convenience. Sometimes you need some juice when you're on the go. Samsung are laughably behind the curve when it comes to charging speed. Even the fucking base iPhone 17 charges faster now.
>>106598533Like I already said none of what you're saying matters, because Samsung is the Number 1 Android brand sold globally.

I bought the pixel for the photo but given the series is not improving on it and even getting worse and the video is still bad I'm very tempted by the new iphone. But how hard is it to switch? Can I still use gemini or google lens on it or something like circle to search? I've read apple ai sucks.And also how long do the iphone last before their planned obsolescence?
>>106598662Apple AI doesn't just suck, it's literally non-existent. There is no Apple AI "yet" but it'll be here soon™. They promised AI during the iPhone 16 Apple Event and couldn't stop talking about it. One year later, there's still nothing. This year's Apple Event they didn't even mention "AI" once.Pixel is going all-in hard on AI. They're ignoring literally all hardware and going all in on AI to give you useless gimmicks like Add Me and Magic Cue.Pixel is supported for 7 years. iPhone guarantees minimum only 5 years, but they are known to literally send updates to nerf your phones so you'll be forced to buy new ones. See: >>106597058
>>106598662the base iphone 17 is way more powerful versus the pixel 10. iPhone lets you integrate ChatGPT with Siri.
>>106598591Upgrading from 13 PM to 17 PM this Friday. Can't wait
>>106598774Based
>>106598744>>106598762Chatgpt integration sounds good enough guess will jump on it.And yeah the better specs is what's selling it to me too. I've had both the pixel 6 and 7 and the pixel brand looks doomed, like stuck stagnating with cheam hardware and not likely to be more than a midrange kind of phone in the near future.
>>106598828Here's the thing: Pixel is a midrange phone through and through. There's nothing wrong with midrange phones.The problem is when they're charging Apple prices so we expect top-tier prices. Granted, they drop in price a lot, especially by $150 or $200 by Black Friday. But IMO, it's not enough for what they're offering.
>>106598873The launch prices are bullshit indeed but since they drop very quickly and there are so many discounts throughout the year it's not that big of a deal. I pretty sure most people like me bought their pixels at the deserved midrange price.But I hoped that one day the pixel brand would go premium and offer the best package in an android phone, camera photos or videos on par if not better than iphones, great battery and charging, top tier processors etc. But it seems google has no ambition other than AI and I fear it's going tonbe another of their doomed brands like the stadia.
>>106598920>pixel brand would go premium and offer the best package in an android phoneThis was my hope as well. They've always just stayed at the midrange performance, unfortunately.>google has no ambition other than AI and I fear it's going tonbe another of their doomed brands like the stadia.This. But actually, a correction: they don't really care about their Pixel products but Pixel will never die.What is Google? Google is an ad company. They make almost all their money from ads. How to optimize ads? Collect user's data. There's no better way to collect user data than on your phone. Google will continue to sell Pixel even if it somehow were being sold as a loss, because they want your info.There's a news article somewhere where Google was caught stealing user info on Pixel phones that were idle. https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/1lpvane/google_fined_314_million_for_pulling_data_from/
just updated to iOS 26 and jesus, it's unironically such a huge mess, there are bugs practically everywhere, wtf were they thinking

>>106600122>>106600134Damn, no wonder.
>>106598828It's not just Pixel, all brands are looking like downgrades right now. Samsung S25 Ultras are a marginal upgrade over the S24 Ultra, same deal with iPhones. Everyone is focusing on AI integration, so the actual hardware is being ignored, aside from extra RAM to run AI shit.>>106598920>>106599022Google cared about making flagships when they were making Nexus phones back in the day. And they had to cause everyone else at the time, Samsung, LG, HTC, etc. Were just making dumbphone garbage with Android, once everyone got with the program of making flagships, Google pivoted to making Pixels, which were always meant to be mid-tier phones.
>>106600524Would be nice if they did a Samsung and included the Tensor on the 10A and base model 10 (and priced it appropriately) then put the Snapdragon Elite on the Pro and Pro XL.
>>106600524>Google cared about making flagships when they were making Nexus phones back in the daySorry kid, but I was there. Google never has and never did make any top-tier phones. Nexus and Pixel has always, always been mid-tier hardware/performance. Name a single Nexus or Pixel phone that is top-tier competing against Apple's flagship iPhone. You can't.It used to be mid-tier prices plus with their Google brand it was quite appealing.But now it's low-tier hardware, mid-tier performance, and top-tier pricing. Just look at Pixel 10 Pro. It's embarrassing.

Best phone with stock android on 350€ budget that's better in every aspect than my current poco X5 Pro 5G? It needs to be compatible with USB-C DACs and require power delivery like my current POCO, as well as the ability to connect a mass storage device (I think it's simply a matter of having OTG). What's worrying me, however, is whether these things can work simultaneously (i.e., PD charging, DAC, and external storage all together). Is that possible? I was still considering the Moto G Stylus 2025, is it better or worse than my current POCO?
>>106601852Forget to say it needs a stock android rom, no chink-pajeet UI

Is Samsung A26 the best "budget" Samsung phone? It only seems to lack stereo speakers but that's easily remedied with earbuds. The reason I am looking into Samsung is because it offers like 6 years of software + security support which seems to be the longest support from a phone manufacturer. Only downside is oneUI, it looks boring and bland, but I live in Norway so the only phones really sold her are Apple and Samsung lol
>>106603848Tranny, why are you seething? Sweat cannot dissolve glue like jet fuel cannot melt beams.
>>106600738Oh noes! I got called a kid by some oldfag! how will I ever recover!?You fucking loser, you don't have monopoly on age, I was there too. The entire point of Nexus phones was to teach everyone how to make flagships. This is why HTC made the first one, Samsung made the next two upgrades, LG made about 3 of them, Motorola made one, and Huawei made the last one.The reason why they were flagships is that those manufacturers were just gimping Android even more than what they do with the bloatware of today, they were using Android to make dumbphones that had no app stores and no updates or ways to upgrade them, fully 100% in control of the manufacturer. That or the equivalent on an android phone by Alcatel or BLU, the cheapest of the plasticky cheap shit, slow as fuck, could barely run apps. The closest thing to an actual android phone the way we know them today was the Verizon Droid, and that was 100% tied up to Verizon. Even the app store was curated by Verizon. so Google commissioning a phone using stock android with an app store and upgrades and updates made everyone go Whoa like they're Keanu Reeves. Just that alone made them better than any other android phone in the market, the bloatware and bullshit was that bad. We have a term for that kind of smartphone, the best of the best you can find in a particular time or place. Wanna guess what that term is? The reason why they couldn't compete with iPhones at the time was quite simply the time advantage. Apple had a 3 year headstart into making the iPhone, whereas Google had to get everyone in a huddle tell them to stop being fucking gay faggots, play the game like the mean business or fuck off, and show them all how to build flagships with the Nexus line so they could eventually be on par with iPhones.

>post benchmarks and reviews from Versus and NanoReview>expose all lies posted and expose misinformation>call out liars for pushing stuff only scammers would call the "best">Post multiple flagships and vehicles the angry lying anons can't afford>watch the poos and poverty stricken start to sperg>remind anons the base model iPhone 15 & 16 outsell Androids budget and flagship devices globally every year>remind sirs they owe the USA 50% tariffsAnyone who says Versus or NanoReview is wrong is the problem. These liars are just trying to feel better about their lower quality budget friendly mid tier device and refuse to accept the facts.No amount of lies will stop us from making this general great again. We will call out false statements and not let scammers trick people into thinking a lower quality branded device for $400 could ever match a $1,200 flagship by Apple, Samsung or Google. Don’t give the people (YOU)s. Benchmarks and reviews will keep getting posted. Now the trolls are lying calling me Indian. Lol I live in NY in a completely paid off home, another thing impoverished lying anons cant afford. Such low IQ attacks.
Benchmarks and reviews from reputable websites will be posted in SPG.This is our only defense we have against people that come in to this thread and lie. It's nothing personal against anybody's favorite device. It's just the simple facts. Nobody is out to get you, but when you're openly coming into this thread and lying and then getting upset when you get called out for it that's just ridiculous.
It's actually really interesting being the only person that is openly posting screenshots from two reputable websites consistently that is being targeted by multiple people that are posting false information. I wonder why? Liars are strange. This is a smartphone general and I'm literally posting about phones. Imagine posting lies itt and expecting us to never check Versus or NanoReview or other websites. Never blindly trust these liars without double checking. Most of the people itt are lying about a cheapo budget friendly device being a high quality phone. It's a problem unfortunately with lower IQ individuals.

Is there a decent storefront in the EU selling Sony phones? Doesn't matter if used, just need one in decent condition. Is my only option actually just ebay? I cannot for the life of me just find any Xperia and I'm tired of browsing the local listings of whoever stole it from the last owner.It's either that or buying another brand's flagship, but I've enjoyed using the Sony phones whenever I had the chance.

>>106603478What's wrong with this image?
>>106604792I also prioritize camera for the best photo/video quality. I did a ton of research and ordered the iPhone 17 Pro.Generally the top contenders are: iPhone 17 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro, and Samsung S25 Ultra.The general consensus is iPhone 17 has the best video, Pixel has the best photo, and S25 Ultra has the best zoom.I chose iPhone 17 Pro because Pixel has best photo, but not by much while Pixel has far inferior video compared to iPhone. I don't care about telephoto.
>>106605973based
>>106605973>I don't care about telephotoYou know nothing about phone cameras in that case. Why are you buying a phone based on something you don't understand?

Android xisters, please convince me to not buy an iPhone 17.Next year Google is going to take away my YouTube Vanced which is literally the last reason I had to justify using this piece of shit OS.
Should I get a Samsung recertified or a refurbished? Seems like their extra processing is most likely a meme. And what's the oldest model I should shoot for if I want to use this for 5+ years of basic music/browser/communication use?
>>106606916ios is hundred times locked down than what google said they will do, but you know ? just get the iphone
>>106606916>Google is going to take away my YouTube VancedSo don't buy a device from google.
>>106606916Easy.1) Next year, iPhone 18 will be on the shelves.2) Rooted phones still exist and will exist in 2026.
>>106606916jerman dev of revanced will just copy paste shizuku support into the manager and everything will work the same
can't wait for android to get locked down and all the coping anons realize corporations don't care about them.
iPhone Air or S25 Edge, that super thin feeling just got me. I don't use my phone much anyway.
>>106606916>Next year Google is going to take away my YouTube Vancedits not, apk adb installing will remain working
>>106607105>3000mah>I don't use my phone much anywaywhich just makes the constant charging all the more frustrating
https://www.phonearena.com/news/tim-cook-explains-how-iphone-air-keeps-strong-battery-life-despite-its-slim-profile_id174092
>>106607105iphone
>>106604792Kinda what the other anon saidIphone camera is the best out of the box for both photos and videos.S25 ultra is a good all rounder but only excel in some raw hardware like 200mp resolution or zoom.Pixel takes great photos but videos suck the most.One thing you must consider is post processing and color contrasts and this can be subjective. Iphone doesn't over do it and is closest to natural, samsung does and goes for high dynamic contrast and pixel has toned it down a bit this year some would say a bit too much.If you care for most natural look that reproduces an actual camera the most then iphone is the best, better than pixel even for photos at least this year.
>>106592550It's over
>>106599353Thanks for the warning. The phone's still shipping so I'll probably just return it rather than take the risk.
>>106607458Fake news. Samsung has a Qualcomm deal until the end of 2026. https://www.phonearena.com/news/samsung-galaxy-s26-ultra-is-the-phone-to-experience-snapdragon-at-its-best_id173650
>>106607458What’s wrong with using that?
>>106607562IDK why these anons enjoy posting misinformation itt. It's sad. Imagine actually thinking the S26 Ultra would go with Exynos lol, lmao even. It's c9nfirmed to be a Snapdragon again.https://www.sammobile.com/news/qualcomm-unusual-name-galaxy-s26-snapdragon-chip/
>>106607562A quick googling shows only the ultra will use the snapdragon. Regular and plus will come with exynos. >>106607587Nta but exynos are notorious for their overheating porblems and also are less powerful. Samsung used to make the tensor chips for google and those were overheating as well to the point that google is no longer ordering their chips from samsung but tsmc like everyone else
>>106607620>A quick googling shows only the ultra will use the snapdragon. Regular and plus will come with exynos. You know what they say! You get what you pay for!
>>106607620So why did you post saying the s26 ultra will have a Exynos lol.
>>106607620I'm not that anon he's full of shit.
>>106607663You are the one lying about the s26 ultra not having a snapdragon. these uneducated liars ruin spg every thread.
>>106607562>>106607601S26 Ultra will have a Snapdragon. Stop lying and making low iq posts.
About to order the 16pro max? Am i about to make a mistake chat?
>>106607172I have charging pads in my night stand, in my car and at my workplace (home office and office), so not a real problem. I am almost all the time at around 80% battery, because of battery protection.
>>106607712How much?You're missing out on better selfie camera and better telephoto.
>>106607620>to the point that google is no longer ordering their chips from samsung but tsmc like everyone elseAnd the TSMC chips have turned out to be even worse XD
>>106608087incorrect. the tsmc chips are better, but not the best.
>>106603871If you care about software support, get the A26 with 8GB of RAM. Don't get the 6GB RAM one. Websites are getting more complex and chugging more RAM as time goes on. 8GB of RAM will age well.
>>106608087>>106608114G5 is better and also has less overheating complaints granted it's only been a month since the 10 series is out
>>106607348>>106605973Thanks for the help.I'm looking at some of the Pro models now. Are any of them obviously better, or should I save some money and get an older one?
So, the S25/25+ are a scam right? Still using the same cameras as the S22.
>>106608615Wait until you find out that iPhone 17 Pro uses the same cameras as iPhone 12 Pro.
>>106608615>>106608671stop lying itt.
https://www.cnet.com/tech/mobile/im-a-photographer-and-youtuber-and-im-stoked-for-the-iphone-17-pros-cameras/
imagine saying a 3+ years older smartphone is better compared to its modern day version with way better hardware, software and build quality.
>>106608686No, really. The iPhone uses the same exact main camera for 5 years now. It has not upgraded. Look it up yourself.
>>106608701Wtf is ProRes Raw? Isn't it useless for 99% of us?
>>106608762it literally has a square camera sensor now all older versions were rounded. just stop.
>>106608771the iPhone Pro lineups are very popularly used to make movies, tv shows, music videos and unfortunately streamers on twitch, youtube, tiktok, instagram etc.
>>106608774>square camera sensorOnly front camera.We're talking main camera. Reading comprehension.
>>106608791I get that, but what's the real difference between letting your phone auto settings for you vs shooting in ProRes Raw and editing it yourself? Is it really that big a difference in quality?
>>106608797you never said rear, you only said the same as the 12. you got no reading comprehension.
>>106608809Bro.. literally read this again: >>106608762Also lol, so you do admit the REAR MAIN CAMERA hasn't been updated.
>>10660880728 Years Later partially shot using a 15 Pro Max in Raw 4k
>>106608825Yes but.. what's the difference between ProRes Raw and auto?
>>106608823if you are gonna think any believes your misinformation posts claiming a iphone 12 and the iphone 17 pro have the same camera and no difference in quality or image processing you are just trolling.
