Global Smartphone Sales September 2025 - Now!
>>108265954>retail units are much worse than review unithow did something like this even happen? they're literally the same chiphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iF5NYzlpCs
>>108266189https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZdxP-hS0jc
>>108266035Because it's the only smartphone that has been produced at large scale since the NAND/DRAM prices have surged.The smartphone industry usually has a 3-6 month delay from when they purchase hardware to when it actually gets into consumer hands, so Samsung likely was purchasing the NAND/DRAM for the S26 in October/November, right as the NAND/DRAM prices started to rise.Expect phones coming out this summer/fall to be even worse than the S26.
>>108266189>>108266207Sheesh I'm watching this now>>108266209Tremendous Cope when the s26 ultra is less efficient than the s25 ultra
>>108266240>Tremendous Cope when the s26 ultra is less efficient than the s25 ultraWhat does that have to do with the economic realities of the current NAND/DRAM market?
>>108266245It's Samsung's fault they weren't as prepared as other companies are which aren't affected by the RAM prices
>>108266262You're delusional.There has been no other recent major phone release to speak of.As I said, wait for the summer/fall releases if you really want to see high prices.
Global Top 10 Best Selling Smartphones.
>>108266207>>108266189apple wins again
>>108266245Samsung makes 34% of all DRAM in the world and I'm pretty sure they make 100% of DRAM that goes in Samsung phones.If higher demand for DRAM was an argument for them to increase the prices on their phones it's because they want to make more money not because they "weren't prepared".Samsung stock prices have skyrocketed, they are one of the big winners of this situation.
>>108266189Looks like they fixed the 1% low at the expensive of higher current draw.Probably just newer firmware optimized to reduce lag.

I don't trust the speedometer and want to see how fast my moped goes.What are some Android apps that work in the background and track the maximum speed? Ideally I'd start the app, put the phone in my pocket, start driving my moped and when done I'd check the app for the max speed. >>108267951I easily could but I have much better use for monies. Besides what are some use cases for expensive phones in the current year? Decade ago it made sense but now there's affordable ~200€ phones with like 8GB of RAM.t. europoor

I had a funny idea. pixel 10a. blue. I have an iphone 13 and I thought about trading it in for a blue pixel 10a because I think it makes a good Furina phone. it’s blue. And it’s flat. Just like her (my pretty flat wife) I could even put a wallpaper of her to solidify its Furinamaxxing. problem is I play genshin on my phone all the time and I don’t know if I could cope with the decreased power of a tensor chip compared to the measly a15 sadly. google should have called this the furina phone

OnePlus won!!!
Why is it the Chinese are the only manufacturers that understand that to get the performance out of a snapdragon, you have to have some type of cooling?It baffles me that Samsung and all their engineers decided to put the new Snapdragon in their flagship phone with just """"vapor cooling""""".
https://redmagic.tech/products/redmagic-11-proWhy are these not more popular. The price seems very reasonable compared to other brands
>>108267951My gaming laptop costs as much as 3 iphones.Why wouldn't i pay so much money for a designated doom scroll machine?
Why are comments on SoC comparisons on Nanoreview so retarded? Why are all phonefags so obsessive and aggressive in general?
>normies (especially females) can identify at a glance if your phone is an iphone and exactly how recent of a model it isit's crazy because i can't even tell the difference between an iphone and a samsung these days. normgroids don't even know how to right click on a computer, the only semblance of tech knowledge they have serves them purely to ostracise other people, what fucking monkeys
How good is the base iphone 17 for a normie that only plays hearthstone and gacha? I got a base s22 and the battery starts to drop dead at about 20%, i haven't had an apple toy since the 4
>>108269064>gaming phonesYou overestimate the amount of "hardcore" gamersmost people just want a normal phone that is able to game, not actual dedicated gaming phonesPlus, its actual as fuck
I made terminator wallpaper for my pixel 9a
>>108269257
The top selling Smartphone was the iPhone 16 for 2025.The smartphone of the year for 2025 was the iPhone 17.When will a Android achieve this?Reminder: >>107992038 >>107990718
>>108269023No.
>>108268555>>108269032>>108269064Truth Nukes
>>108269792the front of the redmagic is so sexy
>>108269064Same reason why other Chinese phones aren't as popular. They aren't a good package deal.Sure, the redmagic does some things better than the popular brands but when you look at the overall picture its not very good People obsess over the "omg no punch hole so based" meanwhile forgetting that the software on this phone is trash, the photos it takes are trash, its "Special cooling" is a gimmick that almost doesn't make any actual difference and it's design is ugly as sin.
So far, the performance benchmarks on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 are really disappointing. Usually, Snapdragons can hold their own when compared to Apple's A SoCs, but as it stands now, the A19 Pro wipes the floor with it.
how good is huawei pura 80 pro? I have an offer for 700 euro for it, 512gb but idk if i can download android apps on it, does it have jewish apps on it? it's important for me to know
Why the fuck does Spotify drain so much battery? I'll typically use SBC on my earbuds at 160kbps and stream via wireless data (mind you, I'm subscribed to Premium so I've downloaded the playlists I listen to the most) and it'll drain like 20% in an hour for some reason. I figured maybe it's streaming them regardless if I have them downloaded or not, so I turned on offline mode and yet the issue remains. One odd thing I also noticed is that streaming music to my car stereo via Bluetooth (AAC) for about an hour drains maybe 5%-8% of my battery which doesn't make sense. What the hell's going on here?
>>108269064>The price seems very reasonable compared to other brandsThat's because they pour all their money into hardware, spend little if anything on software+software support, then pass those savings on to the consumer
>>108265954>OP picKekaroo. Laughs in 16GB of RAM~
>>108269171Because nanoreview is a retarded useless website, visited by retarded people, and shilled by retarded itroons. The website will tell you that higher core clock is better, with no mention of IPC.
>>108266183Google is such a failure at everything they do holy shit
>17640 hours until bootloader is unlocked.
>>108270254it depends on what benchmarks you're talking about. snapdragon smokes apple in vulkan, apple does better in cpu.
>>108270631>1800usd for 16gb ram and a smartphone that placed behind the OnePlus 15, Red Magic 11 Pro and Iqoo 15 using the same SOC. Laughs in 24gb ram!Wow spg really? >>108266062>>108269792>>108270254>>108270658Based
>>108266069>>108269792They didn't even use the 24gb Red Magic 11 Pro during the testing and all the flagships had 16gb ram and the Galaxy S26 Ultra would be in 4th place after the OnePlus 15, Red Magic 11 Pro and Iqoo 15. Galaxy fell off. Anyone pushing this is not being honest.
>>108270762>>108270792Actually the s26 ultra has the same snapdragon soc, but it’s overclocked and still did worse…
what would you recommend for codm, s25 base, redmagic 10 pro or iphone 17 base?
>>108266727Is this even the right thread to ask this?
>>108266727tasker
>>108269032>It baffles me that Samsung and all their engineers decided to put the new Snapdragon in their flagship phone with just """"vapor cooling""""".What are the Chinese using for cooling?I haven't been paying attention.
>>108271173itroons, lmao
looking to get a phone for my wife, main requirements are that it has sd, headphone jack, good t-mobile us support and isn't ewaste out of the box. Should I look for a used Xperia 1 V, or look for a newer device? Checked kimovil and a few other places and it doesn't look good for new phone options in the us, only thing that seems remotely decent is the 2026 Moto G Stylus which isn't out yet and is probably way worse in performance than a used 2 year old Xperia. Any opinions?
DameTech dropped another iPhone 17 Pro Max vs Red Magic 11 Pro comparison video.The iPhone 17 Pro Max beats the Red Magic 11 Pro in cooling, efficiency and graphics.(The RM11 tops the S26 Ultra so the iPhone 17 Pro Max beats it too)https://youtu.be/V_V5_JjsxTg?si=rrmk2diE0uub9PjT
>>108271205If sd card and ear jack are that much of a big deal then yes, get an Xperia
>>108271205xperia 10 vii, but its also slower than the 1 V. that and the moto are the only non-ewaste devices with a jack and sd
>>108270809Forgot to mention ii’s 12gb ram for the s26 ultra models without 1tb of storage btw
>>108270303That's a really good price The Google Play store isn't available on Huawei but you can still install and use Google services/apps no problem on Huawei, there are many tutorials which explain how to do this
>>108271394anything after the 1/5/10 V won't support n71 on t-mobile which in my region basically makes it useless. I'd love to get a newer Xperia model but the lack of n71 band support (even after flashing a new modem) makes it a hard sell for me.
some guy just released unlocked bootloader with Lineageos 15 for BlackBerry Key2. Why do i need more ?
>>108266240>less efficientIt's not though? Seems to run quite a bit cooler and longer than the S25 Ultra. Say what you will about this guy but the test seems to be pretty legithttps://youtu.be/RGGHyY2mN7o
>>108271173First of all, how the hell can you not know the password to your main email account?Second...what the hell is that case? Is the phone in a tin can there or what?
>>108271983This is not the best flagship Samsung has made. I’m sorry you refuse to accept the truth. Samsung shouldn’t be in LAST place for Antutu compared to a OnePlus 15, Red Magic 11 Pro and a I’ll 15. Like come on. And this was done with a overclocked soc in the s26 ultra….See: >>108266069 >>108269792
>>108272160> I’ll was supposed to be Iqoo 15 sorry I’m still buying a S26 Ultra, but I’m let down. Hopefully a update fixes it.
>>108272160>This is not the best flagship Samsung has made. Did I say that? I'm just saying it looks like a pretty decent improvement over the previous. Not really enough to be worth upgrading if you have an S25 Ultra, but it still is one.
Global Smartphone Sales Dec - Now.
>oneplus 7 pro having trouble holding a charge>might have to replace it after 7 years
>>108272446make sure you dodge enshittyfied software when you upgrade
>>108271172Those meme gamer phones have fans inside them and/or water cooling. Usually at the cost of water resistance.
>>108272568any recs? i haven't read anything about smartphones since I got this phone.
>>108272656Unironically buy an iPhone. Android is on a slippery slope.
>>108272446I would recommend the S24FE you can get one for a really good price right nowI know your first thought is to just get a new OnePlus but trust me, latest OxygenOS right now is worse than other skins, homie
>>108272727>Android is on a slippery slope to being more locked down>switch to an OS that is already much more locked down than anything Google is contemplatingNice (lack of) logic.>>108272656Pixel or bust. Long support timeline, fast updates, GrapheneOS support. Only bad thing is that the SoC/processor isn't as powerful as Snapdragon... which only really matters if you play unoptimized waifu gacha games like Genshin Impact or the other games by that developer, or Wuthering Waves.
Never trust anyone recommending a Pixel with its high price and mid tier SOC.
>>108272905>>switch to an OS that is already much more locked down than anything Google is contemplatingOnly in the US
>>108272727Truth Nuke.>>108269782>>108272281
>>108272905>Only bad thingis that it has dogshit QA and falls apart
>>108272982>Hey I can install an alternate app store in Europe guys!Wow, cool. You can do that on Android, anywhere. How about a custom OS? No? Guess you're stuck with NSA surveillance on iOS.You think Android = Samsung, I get it. But it's not the case.>>108273190Owned a few and never had problems that weren't my own fault.
god please make so these motos with graphene are cheap enough
>>108273205>Guys Google doesn't spy on you just ignore pic related and all the lawsuits they lost! Install a mediocre rom instead!Really spg?
>>108273398>thinks this is a problem on AOSP >thinks this is a problem on GrapheneOS without sandboxed Play Services>thinks this is a problem on LineageOS without gappsWhere is the version of iOS without Apple surveillance?
>>108273476Installing a rom doesn't stop your phone from being spied on. Snowden already proved if you are not on your own closed network cellular towers, you're being monitored. You're just coping bruv. What does iOS have to do with a mid tier SOC Pixel having a meme rom installed on it? Stay on topic.
>>108273487>shifts goalposts from Google spying to telecom triangulationWell then don't have a phone, or a tablet, or anything else with a cellular modem. OS is irrelevant if you're worried about that, they can always get your location if you are connected to the towers. >what does iOS have to do with custom ROMsNothing, that's why you're stuck with Apple Services and the additional spying that Apple is forced by the NSA to do. Google does it too, but it is possible to have Android without Google Play Services and Google apps, the same isn't true of Apple and iOS.
>>108273487Don’t argue with somebody with a pixel they literally paid more for something that has a worst SOC than the base iPhone 17 and they’re over here bragging about it
>>108273533So you agree that that ROM is a meme because it does not give you full anonymity and you're just coping also you don't know what devices I have. Lol I have way more phones than you and you're stuck with just one phone kid. I buy brand new flagships just for fun. I ordered my fourth phone, you're still on just one. I got rid of my mediocre pixel 9 Pro XL and dumped the Google meme phones because they decided to put horrible chips in them. I also just dumped Samsung after the s25 ultra because of the atrocious release that they just had with the s26 ultra. Unlike some people here I refuse to accept any company dumbing down their products and cheaping out on them just to make a profit for the people on the board of trustees.>>108273540You are right 100%, I'm not even going to talk to this person anymore.
when apple and pixel users fight, be the poco user
>>108273567I have a OnePlus 15 and a red magic 11 Pro I do not have only an iPhone, you guys don't know what you were talking about. >>108270762My 1tb S26 Ultra should arrive sometime this month. Only that version has the 16GB ram and all the other ones have 12GB. Ew.
Everyday I thank Jesus for blessing me so I never have to buy a used smartphone or a Poco or trade in a smartphone for a discount on the new device.
>>108273565>full anonymity Never said that a custom ROM would provide that. Oh you're that loser who spams screenshots they/them's iPhone and Chinkphones as some sort of flex? Yeah, not worth trying to reason with you. Post your fancy car. Post your mansion. Post your yacht. Real bourgeois status symbols. What are you, poor?

You'll stop caring about appearing "immature" or like a "zoomer" or "childish" once you mature. Good luck with that.Can we stop dealing with your psychological issues, particularly your need to appear "rich" and "mature" and get back to smartphones?

>>108276585No. India doesn't make chips for smartphones they will never have factories like TSMC in Taiwan that make 100% of the iPhone soc. The main board is 100% made in china. The Indian factories were so bad that Apple is opening iPhone factories in the USA to avoid all the wasted time from the horrible quality the indian factory was pumping out. Apple is doing what every company with factories in India should be doing and that's leaving and shutting them down.

Is the S26 ultra that bad ? I was planning to buy it since my S20 don't get security update anymore but every non shilled review are shitting on it.
>>108277191You answered the question already anon, avoid the s26 ultra meme and get the s25 ultra.
>>108277198The S26 ultra 1 tb is cheaper than the S25 ultra, that's why i'm asking.
>>108277225Don't buy something that has a soc that can't sustain its performance, you are paying for something that self bricks harder than the previous model. See: >>108266069

>>108276878There's a huge market for a "cheap" brand new iPhone even if the hardware is really barebones, especially in the US. I also reckon there's lots of carrier subsidies.>just get last year's or last last year's base model and get a better phone+still save moneyI'm not sure if it's an American thing, but there's a sort of stigma surrounding buying used electronics, especially smartphones. I know a lot of people who absolutely refuse to buy a used phone even if it's only a year or two old.
>>108265954Are there any android smartphones with physical keyboards nowadays? I want to turn my phone into a full mobile shitosting machine.
>>108277488OnePlus did the same fix for the OnePlus 15 which resulted in the SOC performing worse than the previous years in benchmarking. They have to literally slow down the SOC, that’s the fix. The galaxy s26 ultra has an overclocked version of the latest snapdragon and it’s performing worse compared to the same chip that does not have an overclock. The phone is literally a meme.
>>108272978>>108276263I had a pixel 9 pro XL and a s25 ultra. Sad they ruined the new models with downgrades. My OnePlus 15 and Red Magic 11 Pro are way better and it's shocking to me that this is the current reality for Android.
>>108277488If you're not going to be doing anything that's going to require you to use the full power of your smartphone such as gaming or running llms then you should be fine, but at the same time just remember you're buying a device that has literally horrible innovation. New generation models should not have anything inside of it that results in less performance than the previous model. Would anybody accept paying the same price for a 2027 BMW, the same exact model, same exact look; but it's going to perform worse than the previous year's model that has the same looks? Of course not. This is the same situation with the smartphone industry at the moment especially pertaining to Pixel and Galaxy. I'm still buying a s26 Ultra though and I totally know what I'm doing to myself. I just like tech, but I really don't like being played by these corporations like that.This is me btw: >>108270762 >>108273577
>>108273826I watched the video, but does anyone actually know if it's worth the money? Or is Pro max better?
I'd replace my cracked 7a screen on my own but damn the kit is $100+ and I want to replace the battery cover as well, might as well buy a new phone. Is the Pixel 10 worth the extra $100 over the 9?
What is the thinkpad of smartphones? I just want a no bullshit device that comes clean without bloatware and can sideload apps.
>>108277736No, it's somehow a worse phone than the 9 unless you count the new shitty 5x telephoto
>>108277764How so?

>>108278199G5 is better than G4 until it throttles, in which case G4 is better, and yes you do get a telephoto but it's a tiny piece of shit sensor like the one Samsung's been using so it might as well not be there. Details are a bit muddy even in good lighting, and forget about using it in any other lighting conditions besides that, because at best it'll look like an oil painting and at worse it'll look like a shittier oil painting when it inevitably has to crop from the main camera.
>>108278250OnePlus = OPPO They might even shut down OnePlus entirely>>108278385>In 15-minute CPU throttling tests, the G5 maintains a higher "floor" than the G4. While both chips will eventually throttle to protect the hardware, the G5 typically retains about 61% of its max performance compared to the G4's 55%.
are OEMs retarded tho? why don't they test how the chip performs before launch day? why do users have to wait months just to get these garbage SOCs software underclocked when they are clearly unstable and killing the battery as well

>>108279216>You will have to give Google your ID to distribute Android applicationsno, stop lying
>>108279236>There was a brief sigh of relief in November when Google offered vague assurances in a blog post that they were going to design some “advanced flow” that might permit “experienced users to accept the risks of installing software that isn’t verified”. Some commenters went so far as to claim victory and assert that Google had backed down from the program altogether. Such triumphalism was premature and uninformed. We have since learned that no such “advanced flow” will be made available prior to the September lock-down. They purported to be “gathering early feedback on the design of this feature”, but this is also untrue: no such feedback has been sought from anyone outside of Google.>Google’s official and unambiguous stance remains, according to their developer landing page, that:>Starting in September 2026, Android will require all apps to be registered by verified developers in order to be installed on certified Android devices.

>>108272446still rocking a oneplus 6, two of them actually, LineageOS one as a daily driver (calls, navigation) and a postmarketOS one for media and home network stuff.Both keep charge for several days on standby, but my main one gets drained to 0% in only 1h30m when used for navigation, i suspect some LineageOS fuckery, i don't think it was that bad on retail ROM.I wish either Qualcomm or Mediatek would step up and fully support ANY of their chipsets in upstream Linux (with camera, modem and power management stuff included).I would love to buy and daily drive a single phone that is runs Linux and is not constrained by androidisms, but postmarketOS is not daily drive'able because of camera, call and suspend/wakeup issues, most of them tracing all the way back to the kernel.
Unihertz displaying working models of the Titan 2 Elite at MWC. 4200mah battery, 2 chipsets, Dimensity 7300 and 8400. Demo phones being sent out to journalists start of April. Priced higher than the US$399 Titan 2.
what's a good camera app that doesn't look ass like AOSP and lets me switch between all 3 back cameras unlike OpenCamera?
>>108265954As someone who's a fan of small phones in the US, are we cooked?I've gained a small collection of unihertz phones to satiate the need for the time being, but they often leave something to be desired. The screen ghosting of the display on the jelly max feels like things are running at sub-60hz, and i love my jelly star, but not being 5G has had me finding more dead spots than i'd like. I've been using an iphone 13 mini to just have a small phone with good specs without AI bullshit. Are there any suitable substitutes for someone who wants a smaller for factor with good specs, but wants android? I'm thinking about just holding out until the clicks communicator or the unihertz titan 2 elite comes out.

>>108287469Sorry but based on fucking what?If you're using GSMArena, they changed their entire battery testing suite in 2023, the A24 uses the old test, the A25/A26 use the new test. The old test for example tested video playback using a local video file, the NEW test does streaming video over wifi. So even though GSMArena says the A23 has 20 hours of video playback endurance and the A26 only has 12.5 hours, it's not an apples to apples comparison.They both use 5000mAh cells, and the A26 has a 5nm process compared to the A24 which has a 6nm process. So all else being equal, the A26 should be mildly more efficient, in the real world it might NOT be, but it sure as fuck shouldn't be drastically worse like you seem to think.

It was literally one step up from the A15 and two from the A05. It was fine for what it was. If you expect S series features, buy an S series.
>>108282819Other than the unihertz jelly line and the iphone minis, there's nothing else that's coming to mind, and I already have both. I suppose i'll be waiting for the titan 2 elite
I think it's a real problem that slim bottom bezels still aren't coming to most android phones almost a decade later. Even Samsung phones only started making equal size bezels all around the screen with the S22. Iphones had that in 2017 with the X, how is android still not caught up? No wonder Gen Z is moving away and into iPhone, they value aesthetics and status.
i realised that cool people only use iphone while poor people use android, why is that so? The key to improve your life really is that simple.
