REAL SPG
>>106709615They fast tracking capitalism so much not only is the next gen phone family revealed but /spg/ now has two threads as well.
>>106710051we have two threads cause the other op is the loli spammer who backed before we hit bump limit because they want to bake and put iphone hating stuff in the first op post
it's sad and funny the op is a impoverished person who hates iPhones just because they cost too much for them and bake iphone hating generals
THIS IS THE REAL SPG
A esl sar is baking threads with flamewar hate in the ops first post. ignore this person who hates stuff they cant afford.
>>106710160androids cost more than iphones
>>106710351you cant afford that either lol
ESL iPhone hating op is splitting the threads
We respect android and ios
I want this>around 5" diag screen>swappable battery>affordable>led notification light with multiple colors>battery lasts minimum 3 days>long term updates>doesn't break easily>decent camera>doesn't need front camera>doesn't need fingerprint scanner>doesn't need wireless chargingI know it doesn't exist
Ignore the other fake spg where the op hates on apple products for being too expensive. I baked this thread and have two androids and a iphone. I like both operating systems. the op hates apple because they cant afford it.
>>106710449you described a old phone no one wants anymore
>>106710475I want it. And it's objectively better.
>>106710489its 2025 you explained antiquated features
I actually really like Liquid Glass
>>106710551same
>>106710449>>106710475If one is determined, the fp sensor and front camera can just be disable physically. Better than looking or waiting for niche markets to show up.
Just ordered an iphone 17, will be my first iphone ever. I just need a compact phone with very good cameras and battery life, that's all I'm asking for. The price is good as well. I would have gotten the iphone 16 but 60hz is a big no for meI'm gonna miss free premium apk downloads I think
Im thinking about upgrading my phone. One of the things I really like is taking photos of birds and planes. Because of this, i am looking for the absolute best telephoto/zoom performance possible that will work on verizon (CDMA). My current phone is an S22 Ultra and budget isn't an issue.
>>106711134>6.27" diagonal screen>compactlmao, kek, zozzle even
>>106711155CDMA has not existed for some time. Verizon uses GSM/LTE. Just make sure that the desired phone supports the Verizon bands!
Sony….
>>106711262Fuck im old, cant keep up with today's tech. But that being said, what is the best possible zoom performance, factoring everything (lens, sensor, processing etc).
>>106711134if it’s greater than 68mm in width it’s not compact
>>106711313Still smaller than my pixel 6
>>106711134just got a iPhone 17 Pro Max 512gb in Blue. It is the best iPhone internally for sure, but get a case. At the Apple store you can notice all the scratches the phones get and these are display models from only a week ago. It beats my S25 Ultra in benchmarking too.
OnePlus won!!

>>106711726
>still sitting here on a pixel 6i have no interest in getting a new phone since they all just kinda blow chunksi was gonna get a new phone this year but now that android's gonna be locked down i dont really see the point tbist of desussigh
>>106711726nice 2 weeks champion Applel
Reminder /we/ need to support the Apple AirSingle camera is the future baby
Got a new phone and smart switch thing worked great, transfer everything except WhatsApp.I though oh never mind I'll just use a backup.It seems the bloody thing refuses to backup to the google account no matter what I do, changing to a different one and creating a new one does not work.While the transferring chat options fails constantly and the current one has yet to fail, but has being going for over 6 hours and it just reached 32%. While the rest of the 120 GB phone took less than 30 minutes.What the flying fuck is going on here? Galaxy A51 to a A56. It is the first time I've seen whatsapp simply refusing to transfer when using the Smartswitch app
my tab s9 doesn't respond to touch but responds to the spen, what do?
>>106710449iphone 16e and use the pull down accessibility feature
Im angry that my Iphone 15 can't do stuff like remote control/scrcpy and other things.Jailbreaking is dead.Whats a decently priced and decently powerful everyday android phone?Are there certain brands I need to avoid that will stop me from doing what I want with my own phone?
>Outside walking>Pull my Samsung phone out of my pocket>As I'm holding it and looking at something on screen, I feel a haptic pulse out of nowhere (it's that same pulse you get when you press the home button)I can't explain this. I'm not pressing anything then this happens, my fingers are nowhere near the bottom of the screen, and I am not getting a notification. I feel like I'm being gaslighted, like my phone is making me think I'm just imagining this because I cannot replicate this on command. It'll just happen while I'm outside walking, when I least expect it to happen. Do you have any idea what could be causing this? I AM NOT CRAZY!
How long would a phone like a redmi note 13/14 last before it becomes so slow it's unusable? I got my moto g53 like 2 years ago and it's already becoming inconveniently slow. What should I get if I want a budget phone that'll last more than 2 years.
>>106712908stop installing Google Playstore slop and it'll be fast forever
What should I upgrade to as an iphone 11 user.I used to have xiaomi but it got obliterated when I dropped it on the carpet, the iphone is holding well but I want the option to add aditional storage than to subscribe to icloud.Something else holding me from switching to android is that I have an apple watch series 9.What should I do dear wizards?
>>106712826 meI think I've figured it out. It isn't daytime now so I can't say for certain, but I did some digging into what could be causing and have read that you get that haptic feedback when adaptive brightness changes the brightness, which would explain why it happens when I'm outside. There's no individual setting to turn off haptic feedback when adaptive brightness changes the screen brightness. I either have to turn off adaptive brightness or turn off haptic for touch interactions entirely, what a fucking joke. I know it wasn't always this way, some update within the past year has introduced this behavior.
>Graphene run by an unstable tranny and only supports zogged NSA backdoored tensor chipsI swear they're controlled opposition or something>Pinephones so slow as to be unusable>Librem is a shady company and again, generally unusable>Huawei doesn't use a glowniggered chipset but only certain models are rootableHow the fuck am I supposed to use a phone without dealing with glowniggers? I only need to use it as a phone, text, and watch youtube. What the fuck is the problem? Are there ANY options out there?
>>106713176if you are that concerned, any connection to any cell tower would violate those same principles
>CMF by Nothing will now act as a separate entity.>Its entire operations are moving to India where products will be developed for India and international markets.Sar, we finally have our own brand
>>106713345No. I am asking for an unglowniggered chipset and OS. This isn't a big request.
Think I'm getting a POCO X7 Pro. Checks the important boxes for me: cheap, OLED, NFC, IR blaster. I'd prefer a smaller/lighter phone but those just don't seem to be available anymore except at very premium pricepoints from Sony and Sharp.Anyway can't decide on a colourway. What do you think?
>>106710449Get a fairphone. It's not small, that doesn't exist but it probably meets the rest of your requirements
so i bought this s25+ for a thousand bucks and it's nice, does all the usual shit my a52 5g did but a little faster. new camera is nice too. but it feels like i'm missing some killer feature. did i just spend a grand on a marginally better phone?
i can't decide which phone ot get. 17 pro is more comfortable to hold and carry around but the screen size is smaller compared to the pro max. The pro max screen size is a lot better for media consumption when I'm commuting or occasionally having to wait for someone
>>106713544you're just splitting hairs. Get the one that feels better to use
>>106713437black. Green looks feminine and yellow looks retarded
Why does HyperOS think it's a good idea to defrag my UFS 4.1 storage whenever I charge my phone?
>>106713444Flagships are "camera" phones
>>106713889Maybe but i went from a 4 year old 400€ phone to a brand new 1000€ phone. I was just expecting more.
This thread is always full of rich people with 10 phones each.Pls gift me one. I'm poor and have no money and no job.Preferably one with a Snapdragon 888 or better so that I can emulate games other than GBA.
>>106713444the wifi might be named killer but not anything else you bought s5 s15 earlier or plan to buy?
>>106712908get a redmi or poco with at least 8gb ram
>>106714001Jesus Christ, i think i just had stroke reading this. I think you're asking if i bought a flagship before? No i haven't.
S25 ultra or iPhone 17?S25 ultra is 340€ cheaper. Both new. Wich one would you get??
>>106711298I mean, since you're obviously in America, you basically have two choices with the top of the line Samsung and iPhones. I'd just go to Verizon and test each one. Technically, you could probably get a OnePlus to work, but the support for Chinese phones isn't as good as T-Mobile. That being said, Verizon is better than att who has a public whitelist.
>>106711726>>106711734>>106711829>工程机that's not a real phone
>>106714040>s25udo you even need a 7" phone with a great camera
>>106713176get p30 with gsi then
Any good phones that have decent amount of storage and run smoothly but don't burn like crazy when running any moderate app? I own the sony xperia 1 V and it burns like hell even with a case on.
>>106712908instead of a crap like this get poco f5 and it will serve you much longer
Thinking about getting an iPhone 15 Pro.What does /g/ think about it?
Is it worth buying a Samsung s25 now ?The 12GB version can as low as 640 euros sometimes.Because i don't want an iphone 17, it only has 8GB if RAM, no AI and i don't like IOS, also it's 969 euros.So S25 or another samsung ?
>>106714854>The 12GB version can as low as 640 euros sometimes.so a hundred euros more than at launch. why didn't you take any lunch deals?might as well wait for s26 now.
>>106714902The S25 was 959 euros at launch in my country, i guess the S26 will be the same.I obviously don't want to spend that much on a phone.Btw the S25 12GB is still 809 euros on the Samsung website when there's no deal ongoing.
White, or Purple
>>106714926your country has a samsung website but they don't do any deals on launch?samsung germany had like 200 euros off + some free watch (resell for 100 euros) + generous trade-in (at least 100 euros for any kind of phone doesn't matter how ancient or if working) + 10% student discount
>>106715015It's France, we're in deep economic shit right now.The only launch deals i know of is when you sell your old phone back to get the new one but it is irrevelant in my situation because my current phone is a Samsung M31 (worthless here).And they're only offering the buds 3 or some shit if you buy the S25FE (and i don't want this one).
>>106712127It finally finish, it took more than 12 fucking hours.What the flying fuck
>>106713437moldy yellow

I am about to buy the new Xperia 10 VII, please stop me
>>106709615look all i care about is something with good desktop modemost smartphones can do most things, i'm not doing anything special with minegive rec NOWhttps://network.mobile.rakuten.co.jp/product/smartphone/?l-id=gnavi_product_smartphoneyes i am in le HECKIN JAPAN
>>106715662>https://network.mobile.rakuten.co.jp/product/smartphone/?l-id=gnavi_product_smartphoneNothing from those options
>>106715466gross
>>106711155Why not just buy a dedicated camera?
Did Xiaomi just fucking skip a number, just so they are on the "same" model as the iPhone?
>>106711155>>106715815>birds and planesJust buy a sony rx100 vii
best phones under 200 between these:realme p4xiaomi 13toppo k13realme 14and anything i should know about any of these?
>>106716047lol
>>106715662Samsung and Motorola are the ones with decent desktop modes out of the box. On some models. Google has one in the works, but it is a developer option for now.
>>106714845Depends on the price you're getting it for. Something from the 17 series would probably make more sense at this point unless you're getting a good deal.
Apple and Samsung Won
>>106714845I've heard this phone gets really hot for a lot of people I wouldn't buy it personally
MOGGED
Just got the iPhone 17, almost went with the air but I need the battery life.
>>106716128I'm getting it for a good deal, the 17 is absurdly priced.>>106716143I've heard this a few times, but I've never heard anyone who actually owns the phone say it.I also don't do anything on my phone, not even web browsing, so I don't think it'll overheat on me.
>>106716200>but I need the battery lifeWho don't?
im finally gonna upgrade from my iphone xr i've had since 2018. i want to get an android and install grapheneos on it. i'm leaning toward the pixel 9a but any other recs?
>>106712625Asus
>>106713176Can't you load Ubuntu on an old Nexus 5?
>>106716414Snapdragon chipsets are pozzed
>>106716325Get the pixel 9 instead, about the same price as the p9a and has a newer generation modem inside that doesn't drain the battery and make the phone hot, unlike the 9a
>>106716250Me
>>106716047E-waste unfortunately Just get nothing phone cmf 2 pro
I just realized I been using the same micro sim card since like 2015, and I'm about to upgrade phones, is there any reason to ask my provider to give me a new one at this point? It works with 5G and everything. Like do these things have a lifespan?
I watched this video about the Snapdragon conference that happened recently. Tech bloggers were able to try out computers and smartphones with the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and you can clearly see one of the devices is a Samsung Galaxy most probably a test version of the S26 Ultra. This is great news! https://youtu.be/7x8x8no8rwk?si=T4soTBDugK3jQ_tx
>>106711155like the other anon said, just buy a dedicated cam. the pro max 17 can barely match the 10 year old rebel t5. the t7 blows it out of the water.
>>106717855>10 year old canon beats the iPhone 17 Pro Maxstop lying in the thread.
>>106717890How does the 15 Pro camera stack up? I was thinking of getting one as a budget pick
>>106717855youre a butt hurt iphone hater. that's so cringe to bring up apple when the person youre replying to mentioned a very old s22 ultra as the current phone they own. >>106711155this anon is a liar too because cdma hasn't been around on verizon for over 10+ years yet they claimed to have a s22 ultra on this band.you iphone hating trolls need to post better bait.>>106717955try to avoid the 15 pro they over heat sometimes.
>>106717964>try to avoid the 15 pro they over heat sometimes.Do they? I haven't heard about this before.How bad is it? I'm a very lite user.
>9072 hours until bootloader is unlocked.
>>106717978I was at the local Apple Store yesterday picking up my iPhone 17 Pro Max and the manager and I were just chatting about smartphones. I asked them how bad iPhone 15 Pro modelswere and he said they were coming back for replacements and over heating issues more than any other iPhone they sold. Even the led panels were weak and some got image burn in from the always on display. the aod burn in happened to me on my 15 pro max.
>>106711665>OnePlus won!!ummm
>>106718041kek
>>106718006Any articles on the matter?
>>106718074plenty just use google anon
>>106718087I don't really know who's reliable. If you've got a source you trust I'd love to see it. Thanks.
>>106718096do your own research anon. if you cant figure out how to find reliable sources through simple google searches I am not going to wanna keep talking to someone like you. no offense its a waste of time.
>>106718106If you can't prove your claims to be true with sources, I'm not gonna believe your claims.No offense it's a waste of time.
>>106718135what a uneducated response. you can find all this stuff yourself and instead you dont check and claim I am lying. lol dont (YOU) me bro. these sirs ruined this entire website just like Boeing, Microsoft, Google and Apple. they cant help it and always expose who they are with such low iq posts.
Please redeem prove your claims and do needful provide reliable sources.Literally hundreds of people with the over heating issues on Apples official support website and even reddit (yuck).
>>106718191>He can't prove his own claims to be trueThen I simply won't believe your claims.
>>106718235I am not a lying misinformation poster like you and the rest of your kind on spg that ruin the threads and lie about smartphones you silly sir.
>>106718248>He can't prove his own claims to be trueThen I simply won't believe your claims.If you want me to believe your claims, you know what to do. Otherwise...
Phone design needs a renaissance.Literally, for starters all they need is take 15-20 year old models and change nothing, just upscale them and remove front buttons, and above all else, preserve every curve.Look at picrel. Both as a kid back in the day and now I can't keep my eye off this phone same as one cannot keep an eye off very beautiful woman. I would top dollar for a modern phone with this design.
Sir please redeem kindly and prove your own claims by doing the needful posting reliable sources.I can't believe people like this actually exist. These sirs ruined this smartphone general.
>>106715380i saw this pic on reddit today

>>106717403Feel like she would be okay with open borders everywhere but Israel
>>106718368Who NOSE why? :^)
How do you Apple guys cope with not being able to see notification icons on the status bar?
>>106718368>>106718384She's a Nord from what I remember.
>>106718393I can't believe this is a real post by someone who is not kidding.
>>106718424iOS doesn't have notification icons. You need to swipe down to check if you've missed anything, whereas in Android you will see an icon in the top left corner to signify a notification.
>>106718437incorrect. iOS has three different notification methods. not all of them require you to swipe down. some pop up from the top. please don't lie itt and talk about stuff you don't own and never used. I don't post lies about iOS or Android and I use both. I really don't get why your type posts misinformation everywhere online, but it shows easily sir.
>>106718468I don't see a single image supporting your claim. Where's the icons in the top left?
Please redeem image supporting your claim and do needful show notification proof.3 iOS notification styles since iOS 17. Stop making things up I never said iOS has the same top left icons like Android. You have no reading comprehension. Jesus these types ruined spg.
Why does Apple live rent free in Android users minds? I never understood why anyone would hate either os. This is so strange to me I guess, because I use both.
>>106718492>I never said iOS has the same top left icons like AndroidThen why even bother replying?
>>106718524you said iOS has no notification icons and I informed your uneducated self it has three different notification types silly sir. don't post here if you don't want your misinformed self to be corrected.
>>106714040if you like taking pictures of pets/animals or any other fast moving subjects, then anything from samsung is off the table.
>>106717890If you actually like photography you will understand that all phone cameras are dog shit.
>>106718766lying sir >>106718832this is spg. we don't care about your antiquated bulky cameras.
i really want pixel 8a/9a now
>>106718865>antiquatedthey're not because they're superior in all aspects. I don't care if you like photos or not. Pretending phone cameras are the best cameras you can buy make you look like a dunning kruger victim
>>106718928no one cares about silly bulky old cameras. this is a smartphone general.
>>106713951Phones have gotten to the point where the only thing really separating the cheaper phones from the more expensive ones is the cameras and possibly software updates. I went from a Poco F3 to a Magic V5 and would only consider dropping a grand+ on a foldable because they actually offer something significantly different to a regular phone
>>106719228wrong. you completely ignored hardware like the soc. flagships have better cpu, gpu, vapor chamber cooling and higher quality builds and better internal parts.
>>106718258Ok boomer
>>106718963that's clearly untrue. Stop pretending to be a professional photographer with a phone. It's cringe
>>106719705no one cares about being a professional photographer here and we dont care about bulky old cameras. this is a smartphone general. the smartphone killed mp3 players and handheld cameras. cope, seethe, dilate and repeat.
iPhones have been used to make professional grade movies, tv shows, rich streamers use them (yuck) and music videos. Anyone coming into the smartphone general saying smartphone cameras are low grade is not telling the truth.
>>106719719ano asked about taking photos of birds. To that end a phone is the wrong tool for the job. This is simply the absolute truth and no amount of crying "no one cares" will change reality
>>106719796wow so you only need to strap $4000 of equipment on it to make it good?
>>106719816didnt read>>106719825incorrect. they used multiple iphones without any extra lenses and lined them up on a holder they made. cost more than $4,000, but these are multi million dollar productions anon. $50,000 is usually a Hollywood camera minus the extra add on stuff like hd, lens etc. pic rel.
>>106719862ok so it's as good when you spend $4k got it
>>106719894you have no reading comprehension. they have used iphones without anything, but a holder you uneducated impoverished troll.
