17ProMax aren't shipping. FFS.
smartphones are bad for you and will result in the annihilation of your soul.
My iPhone 17 Pro Max ships by Oct 9th
SPG (Shill Phone General)>stop posting your new phones in SPG>stop talking about legit phone specs and benchmarks>stop posting facts about lower end smartphones>stop posting pictures of your vehicle using different phones to compare the cameras>stop posting phones over $1,000>stop calling out lies and correcting misinformation>only $500 mid tier phones are allowed to be posted>stop posting factual graphs >TKD.TJD.THD.The truth about smartphones will always be posted using reputable sources and not just unsubstantiated claims, deal with it. If you didn't lie we wouldn't be here. Nothing you trolls can ever say matters to me. Uneducated anons itt post misinformation. They don't even confirm the lies that they post.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra & the iPhone 16 Pro Max showing us why they are the global sales leaders. Now the A19 and A19 Pro model iPhones are going to lead the way!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 fan boy baked another spg after this one

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.
Tim Cook saved Apple by making the $600 billion dollars investment towards 49 factories to be built in the USA. BY 2027 I will be buying a Made in the USA iPhone. No more low quality india made iPhones by 2027.
>>106632487Hopefully I am wrong, but it might cause some issue like possibly cracked camera lens. Once the winter comes watch.
Just ordered a iPhone 17 Pro and a iPhone Air.

Currently have a Samsung Galaxy S24 FE and I'm thinking about upgrading to something new. Currently on AT&T and I saw they have some sort of deal with the iPhone 17 Pro Max and was thinking about getting it since Google is getting rid of sideloading apps soon. Should I get that, the S25 Ultra, or wait for the S26 Ultra?
>>106632555Buy a Sony phone. Don't trust anything made in China
>>106633011Buy the iPhone and Galaxy anon. Phone maxing is Chad behavior.
>chad behavior
>>106633020That's a bit too much money. The only reason I'm even considering upgrading is because of the deal they have going on lol. I would if I could though.
>>106632512They need to bring back the 10x. The new 5x is worse even with the extra resolution.
>>106633029Let people live bro
>>106633037I think AT&T is offering up to $1,100 trade in credit too for the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max
>>106633006If Apple wasn't run by boomer retards, they would have made a game console and captured the gaming market from Nintendo and Sony. Instead they make great chips that are trapped behind shitty software. What is the point of all that power if you can't put it to good use?
>>106633025baka no reason for your lying negative energy anon. don't be so salty little bro.
>>106633057I agree with you, but whatever they are doing is working. They have held the top spot for most phones sold for over 8+ years.
Black techwoven case is actually kino, you can see the thinnest line of orange, reminds me of a mclaren, which makes sense since the 17 pro is the supercar of smart phones
>>106633084based and blackberry dr pepper pilled
I'm going to buy a Sony phone because no other OEM respects consumers any more. They run a clean software version, the design is nice (no stupid phone wobble), the phone is light, good battery life, SD card, headphone jack and finally some decent software support.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQHID_kjVSM
>>106633110they respect consumers so much the phones need to be recalled
>base iPhone 17 to have 120hz LTPO screen and base 256GB storage, retains small form factorFor the first time ever I'm considering buying an iphone. I really just want a small phone with good battery life, good cameras and good performanceOnly thing bothering me is that I might not get used to the apple ecosystem
india ruined apple. just like they ruined Boeing, Microsoft and Google.
Terrible low quality indian manufacturing for the iPhone has resulted in brand new phones being opened with physical damage to the device from the factory.
>>106633135>>106633146not my problem

>>106633055Just checked with my phone and they're offering $830 for my S24 FE. That's pretty damn good.
iPhone will be the only option for side loading until the EU passes laws that forces Google to do what Apple had to do.https://youtu.be/L1S0SiBuJN8?si=8OvC12dzMfAdDhxU
>>106633225Thats a really great deal
>>106633230I know that a lot of consumers who can't afford iphones and don't care about sideloading will still buy android, but surely this will swing a lot of floating voters towards apple?
>>106633280This is literally the only reason I'm considering getting an iPhone. I use a shit ton of sideloaded apps personally.
>>106633280>>106633296some non posts claiming adb will still be the option for android and side loading will be available. What if google goes full woke and blocks all third party apps? could happen?
>>106633316the same can be said about apple because they can revoke dev accounts whenever they want for no reason
>>106633230Can I sideload youtube without ads on an iphone in Europe? If so I might get an ihpone 17.
This is the thread
>>106633420you can use the brave browser on any iphone right now for youtube with no ads and you can sideload a add free youtube
>>106632773>>106632786Okay I found what I consider to be a reputable source (Forbes) talking about this Israeli software on Samsung phones. Apparently it's an app called AppCloud that comes pre-installed. You can't uninstall AppCloud because it's part of the system, but you can disable it.https://www.forbes.com/sites/barrycollins/2023/05/09/samsung-tries-to-sneak-in-unwanted-apps-with-android-updates/Apparently what AppCloud does is suggest apps to you. Monopoly Go, Pinterest, etc. I guess the companies behind those apps pay AppCloud to promote them, and then AppCloud pays Samsung to include AppCloud on Samsung phones.Sure you can say this is annoying that you can't remove AppCloud. But I'm not going to jump to the conclusion that AppCloud is a "backdoor" used for "surveillance" unless there's evidence of that.
>>106633471SweetOne more question, how easy is it to add own downloaded songs on iphones, first thing I do with new android phones is copying my music folder onto it
You know with all these fancy colors (I like orange) I was wondering, do you guys use phones without cases? Or do you use transparent ones?
>>106633230Man I can live without phoneposting, and I'm sure trackercontrol can be verified, but you mean to tell me I won't have EHviewer anymore?
>>106633535I used a transparent case on my last phone but the case turned yellow/brown over time. Apparently this is a common problem with clear cases (pic related)Therefore I got a black case for my current phone and I'll probably stick with black cases in the future
>>106633513with the apple music 'app' from win 11 store or itunes standalone you add files and folders to the library, then you sync that library to the phoneit supports standard file formats, tags and album art
>>106633549if you buy direct from Spigen you get a warranty and they will send you a new one for free if it yellows
>>106633566I see. I think I prefer black cases now though. Firstly I don't want to show off my phone's logo because it might attract thieves. Secondly I find that any case I use gets dust inside it, and you can see the dust through a clear case. With a black case the dust is still in there, but you can't see it, so I don't think it looks so bad.
>>106633549Why not just get a proper case with UV resistance insted of the cheapest piece of crap you find on temu?
>>106633549I bought some JETech transparent case and maybe it's too soon to judge (June 24 until now) but there's zero yellowing on this shit. 10 europoors for it. I'm more disappointed about the phone I bought this case for (S23), the USB-C port is loose as shit even though I do wireless charging 80% of the time. How the fuck is the phone able to tell the port might have some "obstruction" inside but it's not able to charge unless I put the cable in a very specific angle. Fuck sake.
>>106633535I currently don't use a case since the one I had broke. I like the way the phone looks without a case, but it's a bit slippery.
>>106633633>it's a bit slippery.
I'm new to android, what's the /spg/-approved launcher? Phone is oneplus 13
>>106632347my iphone air is being delivered today >>106632480always is>>106632496new igoyslop is being shipped so expect apple posting all weekend
What's the perfect amount of storage for a phone? 2 TB seems to be a bit excessive.
>>106633978512gb or 1tb
>>106633978256I don't keep porns
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oof5z3BNTdYCeramic Shield 2 is the real deal
>>106633978For me it's 1tb, I've got plenty manga, flac music and tons of games of video thereCurrently have almost 500GB full on my phone.
>>106633471It says I can only have three apps
I heard the new iPhone is prone to scratches, and that’s why there is no black Pro model
>>106634180You can get a dev certificate for $5 that removes the limit
Are you able to install as many sideloaded apps as you want on iPhones?
The Current best Geekbench results.
So depressed my 17PM will come in (at best!) on 29Sept.
>>106634216>>106634053looks like the anodising comes off quite easy but it's tough as nailsi feel like that's not the reason because the blue is dark enough that scratches are going to stand out just as muchi think they didn't go with black because they want the focus to be on the black air and that we will get a black 18 pro
anon who baked the spg after this one is refusing to delete it with 11 posts. that baker is a flamewar starting Apple hater too.
So, Pixel owners are just software beta-testers right? There must be a reason Jewgle consistently fucks up the hardware.

The S25 Ultra has a better camera and is a way better quality built device.https://www.phonearena.com/news/galaxy-s25-camera_id163811
>>106635570okay but I don't really want to experience Snapdragon
>>106635586nothing wrong with that. I gotta fix the wording sorry. I got a iPhone 16 Pro max, Pixel 9 pro xl and a Galaxy s25 ultra. My Pixel 10 Pro XL arrives in the mail today and my iPhone 17 Pro Max sometime in october after the 9th :( lol. Long story short I enjoy both iOS and Android.
>>106635608>I got a iPhone 16 Pro max, Pixel 9 pro xl and a Galaxy s25 ultraI think you should touch grass, friend
>>106635623Chill out anon. I just like tech.
lmodroid started building roms matching los official rosterif you love microg and stuff like autoreboot, parallel space, different ringtones per sim card slot, game space, desktop mode, edge light then you should give it a try
My iPhone 17 Pro just arrived.So excited to unbox and try it out.
>>106636638based
Ngl 17 pro looks alright, i know people dont like the design but at least they changed it up finally. Tempted to get one but my s24 is still pretty good and still pretty happy about it :3
>S25 Edge is only $300 from AT&T if I trade in my current PixelIs it worth it? I know the battery life will be weak, but I can use a wireless battery and otherwise it looks pretty good for the price. I was considering a Pixel 10 Pro but the GPU sucks shit and the storage is slow as fuck already.Give it to me straight, is the S25 Edge a scam even at $300?
>>106636638just finished setting up my airits honestly not as light as they shill vs a normal iphone. vs a max or pro then yeah you can tell but im digging the slim
>>106636768which color did you get?
>>106636773black, it feels like the iphone x in hand with the polished frameI first ordered a silver pro but they extended my ship date to late october so switched to the air. dont know if they made more airs than pros or people are buying more pros because they are shipping the fastest
>>106636710https://versus.com/en/google-pixel-10-pro-256gb-vs-samsung-galaxy-s25-edge-256gbPersonally, i think the edge is better in the software department if you dont care about the AI stuff (even though samsung AI is pretty on-par with google desu). If youre getting it for $300 then i think its worth it given it has a better chip, lighter, and a bigger screen. 10 pro has more ram but 12 gb ram is still pretty solid in the edge
>>106636857based and well explained pilled
Gonna get the pixel 9 See you in 5 years when I upgrade again
>>106636820is it really superior to the base 17? 200 dollers werth?
>>106633084My negro, I went for the same comboBlack and orange always goes hard
>>106637101If you’re paying full price no I’d just get the 17. I traded in my old phone so I only paid $170 for the air. The thickness difference between the normal iPhone and the air is 2 credit card worth of thickness when I compared them (not including the bulg) uwu. It’s only slightly noticeable, there’s a reason YouTubers only show it next to the pro to show it’s “thinness”
>>106637189i just dont get why youd get it over the normal or pro. I'm waiting for a bit more reviews before i pull the trigger i almost fell for the fomo hype though
>>106632325How do I protect myself against loss/destruction of my phone?If someone would rob me and steal my wallet: sucks but I'd survive.But if someone would steal my phone I'd be fucking dead:>SIM card / phone number which is like your SSN for anything online>2FA Codes>Mobile banking>Online brokeragesEverything is in some way dependent on you having your phone with you
>>106637200Because I don’t need a .5 macro lens that I never use (17) or a xbox huge pro that’s mainly for content creators or influencers. Got the air because when I put a case on it will be the size as a normal phone, the battery life is only 30 mins less than the 17 in real world tests I’ve seen and I want a lighter phoneBasically it’s new, I like it and I can. I don’t work an office job so my phone is in my pocket 10 hours a day at work
>8232 hours until bootloader is unlocked.
>>106637281Also for anyone who cares the 1 speaker isnt issue’ish. It’s way louder than a normal iPhone on full blast but if you hold it sideways you will notice the non “stereo” aspect of it since one ear will be getting more than the other. If holding it vertical you don’t notice so social media stuff is fine, watching a movie you’d probably want to use AirPods
>>106637235Cletus, stop living in dangerous cities like Detroit!

>>106637235Phones have theft protection. Don't use biometrics, a burglar can force you to unlock your phone or even knock you out or kill you then unlock it. A password is the best security for keeping people out of your phone. You don't have to keep numbers on your SIM card.
Bros talk me out from buying the Pixel 10 Pro. I want a good phone under 6.5 inches but there are almost no good phones out there.
>>106637983it's overpriced + underpowered
>>106637983It's too heavy for its size and the new tensor chip is even worse than the Shitxynos ones.>I want a good phone under 6.5 inches iPhone 17
>>106638002Overpriced I agree but underpowered in what sense? I am not going to play games>>106638004I am too used to android and don't want to relearn with iOS
>>106638026Samsung S25?Xiaomi 15?vivo X200 FE?Motorola Edge 60 Neo? (coming soon)
>>106638058How is the battery life with the S25?Can't buy the china phones and don't know if motorola is available here
Is there any reason not to go with an iPhone over an S25 Ultra now that Google has decided to start locking Android down?
>>106638092Battery life is okay on the S25 for its size.The problem is they haven't upgraded the cameras or charging speeds since 2022.
Apple chads won
>>106638197the reason is google isn't going to fully lock down android + just don't update the s25u to oneui 8 and you are good to go
i have an iPhone 15 Pro Max should i trade it in for the iPhone Air or the 17 Pro Max
>>106638259won the retardo award
>>106638259>gets robbed by nigger
>>106638345I have the 14 Pro and am heavily tempted by the Air.
>>106638345Have a 15 pro max, got an air in today. Also got a 17 pro just to compare em all in personKeeping the air
I don't get itPeople shit on Apple every day here but come release day, it feels like every anon picked up a new iPhone
I was so hyped about the Pixel 10. Qi2 with magnet at last, better battery efficiency, no custom vendor shit other than the typical Google stuff that can be disabled and/or just installing GrapheneOS, but the huge price, the underpowered specs, and the recent moves by Google trying to erect their own Apple-like walled garden what with delaying the AOSP release and the whole "eventually only apps by verified devs can run" really soured me on the Pixels. Is there any other good choice out there or should I wait, either for better models to release or for price drops?t. Pixel 7 owner
Do you niggas really need 2 phones?
>>106638920Yes
>>106638345If you use pro cameras or need all day battery stick with the pros The air is legit a iPhone 16e but thin and 1 less speaker. The 19”pro” chip in a air is basically just a 19 chip because when I was syncing my stuff the bump got warm so I know it’s throttling down to normal 19 chip doing any sort of heavy stuff I went with the air from a iPhone 13 because I’m old and only use my phone for basic texts, doom scrolling TikTok, checking emails and when I take pictures I just point and shoot. I ordered the 17 pro first for long term battery life but didn’t want to wait a month so switched to the air because I don’t care about shooting RAW pic/vids or playing gaymen. The battery life for the air is good enough and will last me all day for my usage, but it being so thin and apple using junk batteries I don’t know how it will hold up after 2-3 years health wise since I don’t upgrade phone until it’s 3-4 years in and usually when the battery is 70-75% health (my 13 was a 72)To me the pro line has turned into nothing more than a camera/video content creator marketing tool and all they showcase is RAW and 4k abilities and anybody doing that would have to shell out apple goybuxs for a 512/1T storage because that will eat thru the default 256gb limit very very quickly >>106638767anon I tell people they are stupid or poor for buying x thing even when I own said thing. It’s internet, we’re just hear to shitpost and be edgy Know how many times I’ve been called a faggot or told to kms in real life from a random stranger in my daily life? Zero
>>106638767People here pretend to hate India. However, that country saved both Apple and Google.
>>106638320What happens if the phone already has OneUI 8? Also I thought they said they were.
the resident schizo graduated to starting threads all on his own? they grow up so fast...
>>106639088He is not wrong here: >>Post a mini-review of your phone>>Anyone aggressively promoting flamewars should be ignored>>Discuss upcoming and current models>>Ask for help related to phones>>Tell us how many dollars you spent on a good/bad phone>>Ignore the anime spammers>>Ignore the ESL posters>>Phone gaming is for kids
If the price drops fairly for the Pixel 10 Pro during black friday I will buy it
>>106639070chance of that happening are low, most phones come with their announced os version even iphones are like this
Do all phones with a punch hole give you a setting to cover it with a black bar so it looks like a bezel
just got my iphone 17feels so clean ladsnow, what is the verdict on screen protectors nowadays? needed? scam?
>>106639343both screen protectors and phone cases are scams
>>106639343i put a screen protector on my air until i see some results from others. adds minimal thickness and once you get a scratch there's no going back. They always seem to scratch from something in my pocket
I think apple phones are great if you plan on using the phone long term. I’ve had my phone 4 years now and it hasn’t slowed down at all, does 90% of everything current phones can do and I can probably be fine with it for another 2-3 years if I swap the battery.
>>106632480>ultra powerful chip>only used to browse tiktok by 99%of usersWhat’s the point
Thoughts on rumored A19 Pro MacBook? Apparently this chip is on par with the M1 Pro.
>>106639432A macbook air M2 is $700 right now. Doubt Apple is going to charge less than $500 for that one. So seems pointless. Better off getting a used macbook with better specs if you want to save money.
>>106639498Apparently they will return the 12 inch MacBook and charge between $599-$699 for it.> inb4 muh M2 Airthese are old af and have worse single core performance, and as far as I know are not manufactured anymore.
>>106639538Bestbuy has it new along with the M3 one for more money.
>>106639559Macbook M4 is only $800

>S26 Ultra using Exynos>I'm in Europe so it's 100% guaranteed I think it's time I admit defeat and just get an iPhone. Every time Samsung gets some momentum, they drop the ball.
>>106639538>12 inchJesus. you guys have no limits. you'd use a 3" laptop screen if they existed
>>106639734have you ever tried to use a big laptop in a flight?
>>106639343I mean I do. Phone screens are pretty strong these days on drops but I hate micro scratches and 1 face down fall in gravel/concrete is all it takes to shatter a screen regardless of what fancy word or jew chemistry science screen they use If I worked from home or had a cushy office job I’d just use screens protectors and no case but I’m a blue collar monkey and clumsy as hell
>>106639774I used my 15" air on several flights recently
>>106638920I used to use my s24 and iphone xr for a while, mainly because all my group chats for work and friends were on imessage. So, i can kinda see why people may have two phones
>>106639685Unknown bros... our response???
>>106639715The S26 Ultra will have a Snapdragon for every model. The regular S26 is Exynos.
>>106639822Other Chads Won LOL
>>106638875Is your battery swollen yet? Pixel phones don't last more than three years before they self-destruct. The seven years upgrade promise is a scam
>>106638920The only excuse for this is if one is a work phone
>>106639941or if you're a retarded consoomerthat's an excuse too
Some of us like tech and buy multiple gadgets. Functioning adults are capable of affording a second phone.

What's the status on sideloading apps on android?Will google really move forward with blocking smartphones from installing apk?Will this impact GrapheneOS or is this only a stock android thing?
>>1066403849to5google made a good video about this. see: >>106637814
>>106640384it will effect phones with android 16 and gms (google apps and services) in certain countries, though google said they will allow installation through adb for end users, also just in case uninstall play protect package and disable google play so google services don't get updated incase they decided to fuck with everyone using gms
>>106640446That's so fucking stupid. Just leave it the way it was before.
>>106640446>disable google play so google services don't get updatedThis is also prevent the other apps from getting updated. On top of the security issues with older versions, eventually I won't be able to live the botnet life -- for example getting locked out from the banking app because the version is too old.
>>106640446This seems like a pain in the ass. Why not just get an iPhone at this point?
>>106640550Because my android phone is still just 200 dollars and has a headphone jack
>>106640550despite all that shit i still have my freedom
>>106640540i use aurora to update my banking apps
old phones were cool
I like how most people think the new iphone is ugly as fuck but still coping to get it because it's goodApple is really the god of marketing
>>106640922ugly means nothing to me, imagine buying a phone because it "looks good"
>>106640759Do you, if Google's trying to infringe on it?
>>106641018yes, it's either fighting with google bullshit or going back to ios which is unlikely to happen, i will keep on fighting
Where my crypto folk at? Has anybody received their Solana Seeker phone order yet?

Is A26 the best budget phone?
>scratch issueInto the trash it goesI'm just going to wait for iphone 18
>>106641333seems decent enough, i only use it to switch cameras so idkall the buttons seem clicky and distinct
>pixel 10 ended up being a dud>again>can only buy pixels because that's the only phone GrapheneOS works onIdk if I stick with my Pixel 8 another year or not. AT&T is doing their 'any pixel any condition' trade in that would make a Pixel 10 Pro XL XXX Big Gulp completely free, and I still don't even really want it.
>>106642039define 'issue'
>>106638259that shit is ugly as sin
>>106642217i like it
>>106642090get a fairphone or a moto and install calyxos
>>106642231I have proof Celebrite cannot break GrapheneOS's security. There's no evidence Calyxos resists it.
>>106633044I have an S23 Ultra and an S25 Ultra and I was disappointed to see the 5x lens instead of the 10x, but taking a few photos in the same circumstances, the 25 does look better, but both look great
>>106633135Apple ruined Apple. Or more Steve Jobs did. They've always sold subpar products with a laser focus on 'feeling high quality' while actually delivering pure garbage software, and if Rossman is to be believed (he's infinitely more credible than Apple) garbage hardware as well. But smoothbrain Apple buyers don't believe it because they were socially engineered to cultishly love Apple
>>106642394As a consumer, I do not care about the details. As a consumer, the only thing I care about is just one thing: results.I want the best of the best photos and videos. Note: I did not say I want the best camera. Superior camera specs don't always equate to better resulting photo/videos.In the end, the results speak for themselves: iPhone produces the best photos/videos.
>>106642092
>>106642518Is this that famous Indian Manufacturing Quality I've heard so much about?
>>106642518Silverchads win
>>106642518but what's the issue?
>>106640550because installing through adb is still less painful than refreshing all the apps every week
>>106642658Nothing, a case will fix it lol.
>>106642090>GrapheneOSdoesn't work on pixel 10 series though
Apple cooked with the 17 Pros. Best phones they've ever made
>>106642784as an applechad going from a 13 pro to a 17 pro right now my favourite new feature is the action button mapped to flashlight and the camera button
>>106639936Battery is still ok. It still lasts me the day even though I filled it with tons of background apps. Mainly Syncthing and KDEConnect.The annoying part with the Pixel 7 is that to change the battery you need to remove the entire screen. They seem to have fixed that with the Pixel 10; you just need to pry open the back which is only slightly more inconvenient than how we all used to change batteries on old cellphones.
>>106642371S22 Ultra to S25 Ultra here. The 5x photos are noticeably blurrier compared to my S22 Ultra. It's like 720p (S22) vs 480p (S25)This is broad daylight taking far landscape photos and birds in trees.
>>106633230Apple does the same. You still need the $100/year developer membership at apple and you need to let Apple scan your app so they can be sure you're not a bad boy using undocumented APIs or entitlements.Apple complied in a way that still completely undermined what the legislation was trying to achieve. That's what their army of lawyers is there for.
>>106642938Shouldn't be. Make sure you use the telephoto camera. Disable auto lens switching via Camera Assistant. At 10x the S25U shpuld be better, since it does a quarter sensor crop and has 12.5MPx to work with. At the same lenght, the S22U only has 10MPx, and a darker lens with a worse sensor behind.
>>106642952Default settings it's pretty similar between the two, but I did change settings in Camera Assistant and it made the S22 Ultra way better then the S25 Ultra. It's not even close.
>>106642706Like every single new pixel it takes a month or three for the version to update. Pointless to compare to all other phones which will NEVER get it.
>>106632325Thoughts on the Samsung S25+?
>>106642952In sunlit conditions, the S22 Ultra will vastly outperform the S25 because the pixel size is way larger. (1.4µm per pixel on the S22 vs 0.7µm on the S25) Megapixels isn't everything
,>>106643188>Thoughts on the Samsung S25+?Prertty good if you don't need Ultra's pen and cameras.
>>106642845The camera button is underrated. Having a physical "shutter" button where it would be on a regular camera is really nice and better than having to hit the button on the screen
>>106638875I like my Pixel 9 but I think Google seriously screwed up with the 10s. The new iPhone 17s make them look like complete shit only 1 month after release. I know Google claim they don't care much about specs or benchmarks but I think they have to start taking it seriously. Nobody should be paying flagship prices for a phone that is so underpowered compared to its competitors and that's not even addressing the consisted QA issues with the Pixels.Google do great software but their hardware is still way too shitty for the prices they have set
>>106643194Your old s22 ultra isn’t out performing the s25 ultra. Cope harder.
>>106643379Your S25 Ultra isn't violating physics, cope harder.
>>106643194True, but it is using a brighter lens compared to S22U. So while not outright superior, it is still marginally better at 10x.
>>106643555>muh 3+ year old device is better than the new version They always come itt to lie about their old phones being superior lmao

>>106632325I'm still surprised that people were psyoped into the whole heavier=more premium bullshit. How low IQ do you have to be to fall for that one?!
>>106644304I'm not saying it's right, but I think their line of thinking is heavier = more stuff in I guess?
why are people so afraid of shitting their battery with fast chargers nowadaysi'm a 18w cuck but just wondering
>>106644304Premium items are more dense. That usually means heavier.
>try this out on 16pm>mfw it's true>battery actually gets raped just by opening notification window on ios26>no issues on ios 18it's a bit over innit
>>106644439They'll fix it.
>>106644362Real question, why would you pick an Android flagship? If you can afford a S25U, Pixel 10 Pro, OP13 or even the latest Xiaomi, you CAN afford an Iphone Sideloading won't be an argument anymore. Iphones have great battery life, better than Samsung or Google. And more importantly they have a social standing. Please don't mention emulation, buying a 1000k+ device to play PSP games is laughable and iphone runs games as good as any android would.
>>106644439Liquid shit is ugly and unoptimized What were they thinking
>>106644462I rolled back to 18 for now and once again, no problem doing the same test, I just don't get how this is some windows vista tier of bullshit all over again but on modern devices for which rendering some basic fucking UI elements is not even considered a workload>>106644486the clear icons option is turbo liquid ass to read, there's no proper way to adjust the transparency without making it even more ugly
iphone 17 bros how do we install ios18this glass shart shit ain't it
>>106643182yes those other pixels that had their device tree and driver code published, for sure will pan out the same
are there any android phones with 4.7"-5" screens?
>>106644439>doesn’t start at 100% >video creator takes advantage of iOS showing the same percentage for crazy long after you unplug the charger>uses this knowing retards will believe this shit for viewsLiterally no difference in battery life on mine. Still get over 10 hours SOT on 16 Pro max after updating to iOS 26.
>>106644659there is 1 option, lolhttps://www.unihertz.com/products/jelly-max
>>106644713I think the issue is with the glass ui elements with blur and weird animations being thrown around constantly which ramps up the gpu (I assume)If you're using basic apps and not really messing around with this then it's not gonna change much, I could be wrong.
>>106644723looks like something from 2010
why shouldn't i git a pixel 10 pro XL?
>>106644746That could also be possible. But yeah its definitely not noticeable under real usage.
>>106644777mid hardware, wont get graphene
>>106644749take it or leave it, there are no other options (you should get the 6.1" xperia 10 vii instead)

what is the best way to get apks from the playstore without having a google account? Im not making one just to download one messenger but these non-foss copycat stores don't really look secure either.
