Is it true that Americans get mad if you have a green text bubble?
I'm liking the pixel 10a so far. More phones should lack a camera bump.
I asked in the last thread, but my question got buried in the resident schizo's rant: what are the biggest differences between the Oneplus Nord 5 and the 15R? I understand the latter has a better screen, larger battery, esim support, and marginally faster soc. Am I missing anything?
>>108941550You can ask ai btw instead of relying on people with a bias telling you what they feel is good vs bad
>>108941550Instead of going along with the misinformation posting liars in the thread and lying about me; try to be a real adult. Lol I'm the most honest and helpful anon here.
>>108941563I tried a few times, actually, it straight up makes up specs, no matter how much you spoinfeed it or micromanage the prompt. 'sides, what I want in this situation is specifically anons' subjective experiences, if they have used both.
>>108941594>ai slopopinion discarded
>>108941928>Can't debunk the correct information in the AI image and posts a silly not factual opinion insteadGuess we lack intellectual adults on this board
>>108942083Kek
>>108941928Don't feed the troll anon, that's how this general keeps being dominated by that schizo.
>>108942120But the baker has been trolling since the iPhone 7... >>108927586 >>108925746 >>108927396
>>108941550Ultrasonic fingerprint reader instead of optical, 8g5 instead of 8sg3, bigger battery, better IP rating and UFS 4.1 instead of 3.1. I reckon the Nord is cheaper?
>>108942120That would make sense if /spg/ is a fast thread, but literally 80% of the posts is just him.I think he loves the smell of his own fart too much.
>>108942138yup and it’s an insider obviously that’s why it can keep doing so. this thread is one of its troll bakes.
>>108941178kids too chicken to post they/thems very old smartphone with a timestamp. no izzat.
>>108942201Here the Nord 5 is about €350 for 8/256, and the 15R €500 for 12/256. I don't need more storage than 256GB since I self host most of my media. €150 (almost 50% extra) feelt like a lot for the difference, hence I wondered if there was something I was missing.
>>108942519the OnePlus has a higher durability rating, faster soc, faster storage and a better display. nord is a mid ranger and the 15r is a mid ranger with some flagship specs. it depends if those things matter to you or not to justify the small amount of extra money.
>>108942138Jesus....
The new xperia is shit but I bought it anyway because I hate notches that much
>>108943180Skill issue
Global Smartphone Use Mar - Now
>>108942519Nord 5 would be your best bet then. The ultrasonic fingerprint reader would be the only upgrade you'd actually notice but it isn't worth paying €150 for.
uh is this true pixel 8 pro vs s23 FE
>>108943836>weird fantasy stories about people they/them are obsessed with
>>108942120why does every general have at least one schizo that kills it. everywhere on this website there's one or two destroying an entire thread
Looking for replacement phone. Used an s22 ultra but the new Samsung phones look meh. Help
>>108943949but enough about YOU
>still no smartphone timestamp
>108943949obv insider troll gets to post a novel no prob
>>108943834Yes, Exynos and Tensor (Exynos) are really that bad
Why does the fairphone never get any mention in these threads?
>>108943949someone is very angry
>>108944336niche overpriced product
>>108944168jesuswell i have already bought it
Used a samsung 25 ultra for 30 days, terrible phone.OneUI is slow and tacky, very weird and non uniform design choices, battery life was absolutely terrible, worse than my old iphone levels. Camera stuttered hard when taking photos and overall felt very unintuitive to use. Its a fast phone sure, but the software is terrible on it.Switched to oneplus 15 with oxygenOS and I'm liking it. I really dont care that its a clone of apple, because its a really good clone and its smooth. I use the button for gemini way too often.Its a very fast flagship phone, and battery life is insane. I'll use it for a day, be at 70% and then use it the next day and be at 50% and then the next day is when it will be near 15% at the end and I'll have to charge it which it has fast charging in 30 minutes.

S26 Ultra owners are getting the famous green line

>>108947652You know Spammin' Sanjay wrote this awhile ago because it lists Asus as a phone brand
>Xperia 1 VIII bound to come out>no mention of a 10 VIII>the 1 VI is still €1400And here I was, hoping for a sale on the 1 VI.
>>108947679Why do you think my name is Sanjay? My name could be anything.>AsusI read that they're stopping phone production but apparently they will still provide updates for existing models:>The brand will still offer maintenance, software updates, and warranty services for existing smartphoneshttps://www.gsmarena.com/confirmed_asus_is_exiting_the_smartphone_market_-news-71158.phpSo if you were to get an Asus Zenfone 12 Ultra (released last year) you would still get 4 years of security updates because they said they would give 5 years of updates after release:>You can expect to receive at least two major software updates and at least five years of security patches, according to Asushttps://www.gsmarena.com/asus_zenfone_12_ultra-review-2796p4.php

I'm wary of Chinese devices, but RedMagic is the only company that still makes high-end smartphones with headphone jacks.
>>108949973/thread >>108941199
>>108946021You can't really "degoogle" or "desamsung" a Samsung. Best you can do is disable a few apps using adb like the often preinstalled Facebook app and other adware.>>108945745>damage OLED screen>surprised when it gets a green or purple line from the display or ribbon cable being damaged:shocked:>>108949973>Sony doesn't exist
>>108949651>7 years on OneUII wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
>>108950434wrong they were not damaged screens. they were after updating though. >>108909635
>>108950450You don't understand hardware shut the fuck up
>>108950452wow what a intelligent and adult response
>>108950464If you think GREEN LINES (a hardware problem) magically occurs because Samsung updated your phone and not due to damaged hardware you are an idiot. Probably what happened is the heat from doing the update triggered the problem happening, caused by previous damage and/or drops to the phone.EVERY phone with an OLED screen can have this issue. iPhones get green/purple lines too, both the ones with Samsung screens and that other manufacturers (LG, BOE). It is not caused by software. Besides that video is suspect, how did the brown hand man know there would be a green line after the update? Suspicious.
>>108950434>>Sony doesn't existNot in the US, it doesn't.
>>108950524So you agree Samsung devices are not robust and can't even last long due to bad manufacturing. I accept your concession.
>>108950541Yes iPhones as well. And any other phone with an OLED screen.They can't handle being handled by monkeys who throw them around.
>>108950524>replying seriously to spammin sanjayishygddt

>>108941199Antutu status?
>>108949711A shame Snoy killed the 5 product line, but I guess nobody was buying the 1 because of it. With all its flaws, the Xperia brand is still the only one offering what I want from a smartphone, while everyone else always misses something, which is annoying as fuck because of their absurd asking price.
>>108950887Does that mean the Samsung is in the lead?

>>108951533Redmagic 11S Pro.
>>108951547Custom ROM status?
cUsToM rOmS
>>108951697So? I'm asking if that's even possible.Is this particular model the one that allows for such a thing as rooting?
>>108951757my bad for being rude. yeah some people can get a rom to run on their RM 11. I don’t know about the new one yet though and I have a RM 11 Pro.
>>108951697You could slap custom on any android 10 years agoWhat happened
>>108951842Tracking people is profitable apparently. Also aids. Not common in flagmans, but chinks do baked in aids often.
>>108951842I mean, it seems like the tide is changing somewhat. Motorola is officially partnering with GrapheneOS for OEM support.Normies will never care about other ROMs, they just want their phones to work like they expect. This is the case for apple and android.

>>108941138the s23 has better pictures than the s26. we are regressing
>>108941120I bought my current phone outright, but I can’t remember if I had a good reason. Was there a reason not to finance, like privacy with the carrier owning the device?
I’m still on my one plus 8T. $120, mint condition, 2-3 years ago :)
I got rid of my s25 ultra for a OnePlus 15 and couldn't be happier
>>108944697By the p8p, they refined that turd enough that it's bad but not that bad. The P8p is a decent phone same for 9. The 10pro on the custom soc is much better. The 11 is a hardware revision of the 10 so should just be more stable.
>android in the year of our lord 2024+1+1 and it STILL lags and stutters while on bootup on the highest end phone and chipsets>open any app after restarting theirs either a stutter opening camera, photos or a delay/stutter in apps>use iphone, open the phone, its buttery smooth STILL all these yearsWhat the fuck is wrong with android is it because it uses linoox? I open photos app, takes half a second to load the photos instead of instant. Swipe up to close it, stuttered while in motion on animation.Oneplus 15. Going to return it on amazon and buy an iphone.
>>108953440>use iphone>lags like 5 decade old androidrip is piss itoyswitching to gentoo
>>108941120Messing with an nvidia shield and I need some assistance. I want to try and install fdroid on this thing to get aurora on it and get it as up to date as possible to toss some emulators and shit on it. My problem is that I can't download any .apk over the web browser since they stuck in queue purgatory, there's no file browser, so i can't install over SD card, and ADB isn't recognizing the device over USB. I'm out of ideas, anyone got any suggestions?
What’s a good iPhone 6s antivirus?Used this thing for years yes looked at porn with no Adblock and did it a few minutes ago and I want to move files off the phone now but I want to be safe.
>>108953440>is it because it uses linoox?no, it's because the apps are written in garbage collected, jvm dogshit kotlin.
>>108941199>>108953905>>108953561Holy shit this is even worse. I tried to play some simple tests of minecraft on this phone. The phone heated up and the game was barely playable. Stuttered every 10 seconds. Wow, Back to amazon, refunded lol.Why the fuck are androids STILL garbage in 2026. $1000 piece of garbage.
>>108954029Going to do a full factory reset, maybe its just the phone. If this doesnt fix it going to refund it send it back through amazon. Then I'm going to best buy and going back to my old phone
>>108953440>Oneplus 15>When releasing their 1+5 and 1+6 phones, OnePlus introduced one of the most severe background limits on the market to date, dwarfing even those performed by Xiaomi or Huawei.wow that's awful.
what’s the best move for someone who wants to try (lol) dropping out of having a smartphone to end a doomscrolling habit? Just go for the obvious like Nokia 110 4G? Or is there even something extra nostalgic on the market with a monochrome display and monophonic ringtones plus super long battery life?
It's weird, but not unexpected, that the S25 Edge got shit on by critics, whereas the tech industry collectively fellated the iPhone Air. Even though the Air:>only has one camera>only has one (crappy) speaker>only has e-sim>only 0.2 mm thinner
>>108954879Phone that is god awful in every way?Nokia X30
Imagine using a phone that doesn't fold in the big 26
>>108954029>>108953440Stop lying on the Internet, Sanjay. I have none of these issues on my OnePlus 13.
>>108954916Magic8 Pro Air was arguably a more impressive feat of engineering, being .3mm thicker than the Edge while having >8g lighter body>40% larger battery >smaller display>3 camerasThe only problem is MagicOS
it's the time to look at phones again for me (once every 5 years). are there any phones today that still have 3.5mm port? or is that a thing of the past now in 2026? apologies if this is a dumb question if i'm still stuck in the past
>>108955682Xperia 1 VIIGreat phone, my only complain is not being able to put back button to the right.
>>108955608>Thinks every a on is one person and calls them "Sanjay">Obviously projection >OnePlus 13 in 2026Lol lmao even that's why no timestamp ohhhhhhhh
>>108955070Nah more like ‘phone that functions as a phone without bloat’I guess there’s nothing better/more autistic than the modern noki ‘dumbphones’/‘burners’
>>108955673And never being released outside chinatown.
