GrapheneOS is really awesome, even setting aside security and privacy. Very user friendly and bloatfree. Just hope they update the shitty gallery app.

I think I should also do the battery. I dont need the seal kit or any tools, already got that.is the graphite sheet reusable? does it need to stick back? can i use kapton tape?
Global Top 10 Best Selling Smartphones

>>108724540>losingthey don't need to innovate in american market because nobody else can compete in it
>>108724594>I can import anything I want with this powerful tool called online shoppingPlease don’t post your misinformation opinions in here. We’re trying to discuss facts and have an intellectual discussion and your silly false opinions are ruining the thread. Imagine having to come here and claim that nobody in the USA is able to purchase phones not sold here is ridiculous. I can buy anything I want off the Internet and it gets shipped here. I literally got my red magic 11 Pro and OnePlus 15 directly from the official website and they both came from the same warehouse in California so just stop it already with this ridiculous nonsense that we don’t hav the availability to purchase phones that are not sold at a carrier store in Burgerland.
>>108724641Imagine coping this hard over a one-liner post
>>108724641you forgot about carrier whitelists
>>108724693You were still wrong>>108724695That’s really the only thing that’s an issue. T-Mobile has the most compatible network here in the USA for now.
>>108724098>cheap Chinese batterySounds like a recipe for disaster.
>>108725293they are all cheap chinese looking battery. i cant tell the difference between the $40 and the $15 ones.
>>108725377fuck it, i bought theone from ifixit it
>>108724191in the same boat, moto seems way better specs for like 60$ extra but>not sure how I feel about curved screen>I'm used to xiaomi os>reviews on software update and support seem pretty negative>I dont actually need the faster specs

>>108720452Came here to tell you not to listen to all the Pixel shills lurking in these threads.> be me> almost fell the meme> not even PWM sensitive, used AMOLED for years> went to phone store to check the look and feel> severe eye strain (feel of fucking sand in eyes etc) after literally 5 minutes looking at these abominations> staring to feel dizzy when I put the phone back after about 15 minutes> go back home to google WTF it was> PWM> google more> Google uses the most outdated and shitty screens with 240Hz PWM rate, literally shitting into your eyes and brainsFuck all those shills. If you want Graphene just wait for Motorola or use a 'self-de-googled' (even if not entirely) phone from other brands. Fucking save your eyes. You've been warned> inb4 shills with their 'But, but, chicken-butt I've been using Pixels and I am fine'240 Hz TWO HUNDRED FUCKING FORTY HERTZ!
>>108726001pwmiggers are broken>I used a phone for 5 minutes in a bright environment and then I got eye strain, fuck you google for using inferior pwm... uh... dimming?It only matters (allegedly) in the dark at low brightness. But seriously pwmiggers are going make us all sit through a warning message every time we boot our phone like the epileptics have us do on EVERY GAME because they get seizures. The difference being PWM sensitivity is a made up disease.
>>108724540The problem is that there are always bigger downsides than upsides when it comes to going outside of Samsung or Apple. Third-party support will always go to those devices first and so will major software implementation.
>>108726107Cope more, shillAs I said I have been using AMOLEDs from other brands for years. And only this shit flickers so slowly that your brain starts to fucking notice notice it.> made upYeah, totally:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WiZbd3UMbTE

Where do you all get homescreen wallpapers?
Which model is this?
>>108726824It's 10/10.1 inch, btw
>>108726207>Liquid>It's solid
>>108726001Which currynigger thought 240hz was a good idea on the pixel 9 and 10?? Even 480hz on iphones and galaxies leave much to be desired
Posting from my A56.
>>108720468I'd suggest replacing it with fossify gallery or F-stop (stripped of all internet access)
>>108720207got the f8 pro for 355euro off ali. little over budget but whatever the price seems great.
>>108720452iPhones are boring if you think about it. Also Apple's software recently has been buggy. Android is more interesting because of the increased customisability.Conclusion: the best phone on the market is the Samsung Galaxy S26.
>>108729102Based Samsung enjoyer>Won't get spied on by the CCP>Will get security updates for at least 6 years>Decent hardware and software which just works
>>108729699I would rather the CCP spy on me than mossad tbqh
>>1087297941. I doubt Mossad is spying on Samsung phones2. If you're worried about AppCloud, an Israeli app on Samsung phones, just remove it with adb3. China is a much more powerful country than Israel and China also hates western countries more than Israel does, so I think China is a bigger concern
>>108729692>>108729699Very much good befitting post sir
>>108729692>customisability>can't spell>posts made up fantasy stories about Apple being bad like a thirdiespg fell off
>>108729866>I think China is a bigger concern>Ignores the obvious truths about the juiceChina isn't blackmailing and buying out global politicians and controlling others nations through groups like AIPAC and the IDF though... than we also have the world's most dangerous and advanced smartphone spying software like Pegasus which comes from Israel too. The Chinese haven't been caught red handed in global PDF trafficking either. I'm not saying China doesn't have its downsides nor do I support it's government, but anyone saying China is more dangerous is lying on purpose. Samsung is the number 1 selling smartphone brand in Israel too, the Mossad favor it. Google also has a partnership with the IDF and they let it's AI be used to hurt and kill innocent civilians.
>>108729866>more than Israel does, so I think China is a bigger concernFess up, are you a jeet or jew?
>>108730124Why should I care if a phone is made in India or not?
>>108729381nice anon, it having a highend snapdragon, ultrasonic fingerprint and no self-destructing SiC battery make it an awesome deal. eyeing it myself
>>108720452Hello, I have a recent issue. I bought a new iphone recently and everything was fine. Best thing was that when I checked my photos I could search a word and it’d search the photos with that very word in it so it was great to seek old stuff.But recently after an update that function stopped working properly. What it searches is case by case now. Does anyone know a solution, if any?

Is mediatek really that bad? I need a new phone but I can't decide between the poco X7 pro or F7.F7>slightly better performance and battery>overheating issuesX7 pro >cheaper>mediatek instead of snapdragon
>>108730887wait for the next update and pray it works then
>>108731400Just to be sure: it’s something that got lost through updates then?Cause I’ll then wait and see but kind of weird they broke something perfectly functional
>Global Smartphone Shipments Fall 6% YoY in Q1 2026 Amid Memory Crunch; Apple Leads Q1 2026 for First Timehttps://counterpointresearch.com/en/insights/global-smartphone-shipments-q1-2026
>>108731379Mediatek is just another company. They've made stuff for a good while now it's not like they're straight garbage, they just occupy a slot on the market that might be analagous to AMD / Nvidia; They're used a fair amount but they can't touch the power and quality of snapdragon or apple silicon. You get what you pay for. I'm almost sure my phone has a mediatek cpu and it's never bothered me, but I don't give a fuck about high-power phones.
>>108731379They have a bad reputation from putting out the slowest of the slowest chipsets for ultra budget <$150 phones and having the worst attitude towards FOSS. They usually don't even abide by the GPL license of the Linux kernel and keep their binary blobs and chipset specific changes under nda or never releasing them at all, so you have tons of these phones with little to no custom ROM support (outside of GSIs)
>>108731379I wanted to say f7, because it already has a custom rom, but the x7 pro has it as well
I'm looking to get a new/used phone. Budget is like 400 yuros max. I want to be able to install lineage or something and just run gapps contained. dual sim preferred, extra points for sd card.I was thinking of sticking to sony/motorola phones since theyre kidna stock if I end up not finding a phone that I don't need to flash a rom
>>108733373pixel 8a
Finally got my S26 Ultra today, upgraded from the S21 Ultra. Really nice phone, very zippy and responsive. Display is better even with a new screen protector on vs no screen protector. Flat screen is preferable to curved. Speakers are noticeably louder.Have to figure it all out to see if there's anything more interesting to do.
Oppo just showed off it's foldable against Smasnug, who have years of making foldables and still can't even innovate it to get rid of the crease.
