>>109288207My Galaxy M15 has been slow to the point where the camera and keyboard lag. I wonder whether I should do a factory reset or not (I've been using it for 2 years now). I'm worried that I might get locked out from my Google account because sometimes when logging in, I remember that Google demanded verification by sending a number to this phone (not through SMS, over the internet where you have three options and you have to select one that matches).
Best phone out there rn?

Congratulations to Samsung for opening the world's largest smartphone factory and in such a key location where the talent and the labor skills are unmatched! Only the best very skilled hands are making their smartphones!!!https://news.samsung.com/in/samsung-inaugurates-worlds-largest-mobile-factory-in-india
What's the consensus on foldable phones? I like the idea of a return to clamshell, but I remember at the beginning there were durabilità issues. Besides I'm so tired of the glass slab I was seriously considering the Clicks, if it comes out.

poco winnered
With poco you can get a free lesson in biochemistry by experiencing real life black mold growth on the handset itself. Truly remarkable manufacturing.
>>109288440Based Samsung, I'd rather have a phone made in India than a phone made in China any day of the week. Who knows whether the Chinese Communist Party is meddling with phones made in their country.
It’s official. Why can’t these so-called amazing android companies with flagship quality devices that are so great remain profitable and operational globally?https://www.oneplus.com/uk/adjustment
>>109289167>Never SettleThey settled.
>>109289199It's so ridiculous that you try to pin Apple as being a favorite for them. Other anons have even explained this to you. 93% of smartphone use by them is android and less than 8% is iOS. Get your facts straight.
>>109289199The largest smartphone factory makes Samsung’s though, and they’re located in ind*a >>109288440
>>109289223Gotta be at least 18 and older to post here

>>109289167I love 1+ so much. I am so sad by this. That being said, nothing of real value is being lost here. It hurts to lose them in my gut. But they became overpriced garbage and lost their soul. Nothing does everything they should be doing. I can see Oppo just releasing midrange devices here in the USA. The Find X9 Ultra was a massive success in Europe. Sold almost as many as Samsung sold the S26 Ultra. Oppo's Reno and F series phones, especially the F31 Pro+ has a better camera than Sony's or iPhone's or the Pixel 10 Pro+. At $700 the 1+ devices just compete in the same market price bracket, but Oppo, the parent company, is looking at the poor sales, and what people are saying and decided it was time to end this. I think the Find X10 Pro+ will release to much fanfare here in the United States next year along with a line of their lower tier models being sold as unlocked devices where 1+ used to be by next August.

>>109289554sam altman did this
>>109289288>overpriced garbageNot sure you're right there mate. Yes, prices started to increase around the release of the OnePlus 9 Pro but the 13 & 15 were and are powerhouses that matched Samsung, Sony and other Android flagship phones at a cheaper cost. Yes, it may have been just a hundred bucks compared to other OEMs but still a saving not to be sniffed at. They were spanking phone and I'll miss the quirky features, like a pop up camera, IR blaster, etc. The writing was on the wall when the Oxygen OS codebase was merged with ColorOS and when the company started locking the MSM tool and charging customers to fix bricked phones. Shame.
>>109289167the goyim either want a trendy, fruity iphone or opt for a samsung instead. the minority who want neither go for one of the few smaller brands competing for market scraps. at a certain point it's not worth it anymore for some of these companies
>>109289554The Hasselblad branding was just bollocks with little added to the camera other than a few software tweaks, the cache of a branding that very few people had heard of and a frame for photo with Hasselblad on it. And those horrendous camera binacles! It was the one thing I hated about the 13 and his the looks with a massive Otterbox case.

>>109289917It was 1 of the 3 flagship brands here with a big ass battery and actual fast charging. Now anyone who wants this in the states going forward without having to deal with import bullshit is fucked. The next best option is a Razr Fold because Motorola stopped releasing slab flagships over here awhile ago. We also used to have ZTE but they fucked off due to tariffs, not that they were better than OnePlus or even Motorola.

>>109291699GrapheneOS >>>> iOS > Googled Android>>109291725A watch, which isn't a phone.
>>109290913Pixels are overpriced and they have the weakest SOC for a so-called flagship. Doubt the Tensor G6 will be good the Geekbench 6 for it is low like the G5. https://www.androidauthority.com/pixel-11-performance-rumors-3664645/
>>109291738Can any watch do that? Does it have to connect to something?
>>109291747Thank you Pixel Internet Attack Force
Good phone manufacturers:>Google>Samsung>Apple>Sony>Asus>FairphoneBad phone manufacturers:>Everything else
>>109291760Depends on the watch I guess. An old Casio no, but they are pretty standard features on a smartwatch even the basic ones. Some require a phone.
>>109291769You forgot Motorola
>>109291747Do you by any chance have a comparison between those mobile GPUs and desktop ones? Some sort of mapping to make those meme scores mean something outside of mobile gayming.From what I understand those latest Dimensity are comparable to GTX 960 according to 3DMark.
>>109291769Asus manufactures any phones at all? Never heard of them.> FairphoneSo you're trolling, huh.What about companies that do not make money off filling their products with spyware? Google is basically aids+spyware company. Apple and Samsung are vendorlocking fags who want to surpass Google in terms of amount of aids and spyware and faggotry.Then there's Sony with their spyware in all the Sony TVs, phones are obviously the same, doing screenshots and sending home.Could it be that Asus is a pure tech company that just does good products instead of riddling everything with aids and spyware?
>>109291783Comparing PC gpus to smartphone gpus is not logical, because of the huge difference in power being drawn to achieve the results.
>>109291769Only Samsung and Apple make good phones, rest are shit
>>109291834You are missing the point. I am comparing the old ones to the new ones. To see where it's at currently.There is clearly a huge stagnation in the desktop area. Nobody needs more, a meme came true for once. And it's been like that for a while. At the same time, mobile stuff was always shit because of how limited it was. Now it seems like it approaches the performance of the PC hardware from the golden age of gaming.
I am really thinking about getting a 2025 Motorolla RAZR ultra. I really like the form factor but they seem to be hit or miss for longevity from what I'm reading online.
>>109291918anything but a pixel 10a in current times is a bad idea
>>109291877I agree with you. And I posted the charts.
>>109291936Im considering that too but my friend who has one says the reception is shit, which is a strange problem to have for a modern phone.
>>109291778No I didn't.>>109291821I think Asus is ending smartphone production but their most recent flagship came out last year and seems to have been well reviewed.And no I'm not trolling about Fairphone.>>109291839I disagree.
>>109291962True, but those are gay charts, since they contain Apple. As for teh Snapdragon, it's kinda overpriced for what it is. Dimensity probably too.If only there was a hardware chart, like the one Valve publishes through Steam survey. But for mobile shit. That would give something more like a real world picture of mobile graphics capability in 2026.Probably Google have something like that.

>>109296100If the smartphone is water resistant they won't need to have a removable battery
>>109289167Being an American right now is such a fucking humiliation ritual. So much for our free and open market that carriers monopolize and samsung/apple lobby to keep others out. Fucking love my OnePlus 12. Guess I have no real reason to upgrade anytime soon.
>>109296117I thought they had to be water resistant AND be able to sustain at least 80% of total battery after 1000 cycles.
>>109296139Just water resistant.
>>109293790They both have that, you're bad at memeing. I won't blame you for not realizing 7 years ago was only 2019, maybe since it's pre-covid it'll be better.

>>109296122Maybe if people stop being goycattle for iPhones things will improve. The main problem is that most Americans don't care for more competition.

I literally do not understand what is stopping the market from making i/o expansion style cases for USB-OTG compatible devices. Like if I can plug in an sd card via usb and still use passing chargethrough then why has nobody made a case that adds an SD card to a phone that doesn't naturally have one? Do you realize how retarded I felt having to buy an 80 dollar controller for my phone JUST to have access to a 2nd port?

>>109297289Constantly posting examples of three failures in the field for a phone that has sold more than 7.5 million units since it's release is disingenuous.

>>109298570You keep making things up about Samsungs forums, they have staff watching all posts and nothing can be faked on it. You are just mad the facts are about a brand you shill for.

>>109290019>>109290756>>109291059>>109297584>>109298611Jesus, what is going on with them? :'(
>>109298585How do you know that, "I keep making things up", about Samsung? How do you know what I've posted in the past? I've worked for Samsung in the past but then again I've also worked for Sony, been involved with OnePlus and other manufacturers; I can honestly say, I do not have a preference nor shill for any OEM. What's the phrase, not my pig, not my farm. I have an Apple works phone and a Samsung flagship as my daily driver. My personal preference is Android phones just for the AOSP and the better hardware. Forum posts, regardless of moderation, is personal opinion, not fact. Again, posts on social media are opinion, not fact.
>>109298664Regardless of everything you said Samsung doesn't let anyone post fake things on their forum. The actual pictures in this post were taken by the service center btw. You should read the links before assuming everything in the post is from a person. You just talk without knowing what's going on. >>109290019 the service center confirmed the s26 ultra went on fire during charging and took pics of the inside. You claimed it's a person posting opinions which was false
>>109298611Or this person has dropped his phone.
>>109298694>samsung doesn't let anyone post fake things on their forumProof please? Post facts, not opinion. Is Samsung's forum professionally staffed or much like this place, moderated by unpaid amateurs?
>>109298721Wrong >>109298762You said you work for Samsung but you don't even know their own forum rules why don't you go read them then buddy
>>109298788I worked for Samsung up until 2003. I have nothing to do with them now or their forum moderation. Again, no proof their forum is professionally moderated. As for the video, again not proof just conjecture. The phone could have been dropped, damaged and only shows the green bar after a period of time. If I'm wrong, post proof. Social media and forum posts are opinion not facts.
>>109298843You've been proven wrong multiple times I've already answered your silly questions they do not allow fake pictures and fake stories about their products to be posted on their official forum you can go find it in their rules and they literally have paid Samsung mods that post to confirm if something is real or not you can't troll or post fake images there since it's a professional website and they take it very seriously over there. you are just mad that the truth about the company that you are a fanboy of hurts your feelings. You can't prove that any of the photos and videos are fake because they aren't fake they're 100% real because so many more similar examples exist I have plenty more I mean I could literally take a screenshot from their forum.
>>109298694>>109298880nta. kids coping, the pics of the s26 ultra that went on fire during charging were from the samsung service center and it even has the reps info in the photo. imagine making things up.
>>109298880How have I been proven wrong when you don't post any proof of your claims? Why do you think I'm, "mad" or intone that I'm a, "fanboy" and that you've, "hurt my feelings"? I can't prove the photos and videos are fake, but can't you see that you cannot prove the they're genuine either. I have asked for facts but you haven't posted anything to substantiate your claims. As for your Samsung forum comments, again post facts. A lot of companies use unpaid moderation teams; post proof that Samsung don't do the same?
>>109299006See. That's the service centers photo. You lost the argument. >>109298929
>>109298929Where in your post is the proof that the phone in the picture "went on fire" (sic), whilst charging?
>>109299030Read the entire link instead of posting your false opinions kid >>109290019 you can't say a Samsung official service centers reports and photos are fake. You are so mad that I'm posting the actual truth about smartphones here.

>>109299054What link?>you can't say a Samsung official service centers reports are fakeNo, I have no proof that your claims are inaccurate but you don't have any proof they're genuine. Most of these service companies work for multiple OEM's, e.g the repair agents for Samsung in the UK also repair or service OnePlus phones. I wanted a screen replacement on a Fold 4. Samsung told me to go to an EE store in my area for the repair which was repaired by them in-house. They're not ran by Samsung or their staff. The things posted in /spg/ about the supposed low quality of manufacturing in India, China and the like don't match my experience with these companies. What people don't understand is that Samsung may install a local GM but the bulk of the management team will be from the home country. I've worked in two plants for Samsung and three for Sony and the management team were South Korean and Japanese/American respectively. These teams rigoursly inforced production standards including testing of product. FIF rates or product recall data for any company are a closely guarded secret and are not freely shared for people to post on social media. Post proof please to back up your claims. As for claim on the Samsung Forum professional moderation team; I'm still waiting for proof on this other than your opinion, social media or forums posts.
>>109299366I'm not reading all of your false opinions and nonsense because you're a Samsung Fanboy it's just not worth me wasting my time, the link is there and you're just acting like it's not there. here I'll copy and paste it and put it in this post once again it's a official Samsung service center photos of a brand new s26 Ultra that caught fire while charging and the person it happened to is an electrician who even said it's the manufacturer's fault. I'm not believing any of your made-up explanations as to why it went on fire because even the service center said that the electrician was right that it's a fault in the manufacturing. https://r1.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-s/s26-ultra-caught-fire-while-charging/td-p/37941268Same link from this post >>109290019

>>109299339>apple tops nvidia as worlds most valuable companyinteresting so the OP is incorrect as usual
You're always going to have failures in field with any product, regardless of manufacturer. Even advanced production facilities ran by Samsung, Foxconn, Lucky Gold star, Sony or Mitsubishi will have product that leaves their factories that will fail within hours of switch on or within the first 30 days. And it's all because of planned obsolescence, manufacturering electronic product that will barely last three to five years.
>>109299492you made that all up, show proof.
>>109299463now the excuse is that all other brands experience the same issues..... lol

>>109299498My experience and my opinion. I wouldn't post commercially sensitive data on any site, let alone an image board such as this place. And that's what it all boils down to, commercially sensitive information. YouTube videos and social media are posted ad nauseam as fact when it's nothing of the sort. Words are wind. You may not believe me or anything I post and that's your prerogative but please understand that I definitely do not believe anything you post.
We all know Samsung phones have a do explode, just look at the Note 7 debacle. But it's not just Samsung. Do a web search and this problem affects all the manufacturers.

OxygenOS was discontinued years ago when its codebase merged with ColorOS and its engineers were laid off. In terms of choice, there are a large number of Android manufacturers, so mobile phone diversity is not limited.
>>109300751One of my family is still rocking my old Note 10+ and it still works flawlessly. My point is this. Voyager 1 is out in the heavens, in interstellar space around 16 billions miles away from Earth and it is still working. Yes, its power supply is running down and some of its instruments have been shutdown to conserve power so the last few important experiments can continue to run. And here's the thing, if Voyager was engineered like most tech these days, with minimum cost BOM and glued surface mount manufacturing practices, it would have stopped working years ago and not the 59 years it's been operating. Our current tech is deliberately designed not to last and I genuinely do not think your S8 or the Note 10+ will be running in another 5 years time, never mind another 52!

Getting a deal with Verizon, about $900 off of whatever phone I want and $20 off per line.Haven't had a phone bought through them since 2015m, always bought unlocked. I'm assuming they still put a bunch of bloatware on there. Anything I can do to remove it? If they "unlock it" will it still carry some stuff or will it be as if I bought it unlocked from Samsung? Hard to turn down $900 off of a flagship.
What phone are you planning to purchase?
>>109303991Most carrier and stock firmware will have bloat that you can remove using ADB. A good resource for a safe debloat list would be XDA who will reference carrier ROMs as well as stock firmware debloat lists. Debloating the wrong apps can cause system instability. First thing I always get rid off is Meta apps that are baked in.

>>109304651Agreed, what I posted might have been an inveiglement but it was a news story based on fact and with a statement from the manufacturer to respond to the fault.

>>109305387>>109305411Same person posting here, but I'll reply. As I have already said numerous times, even if it's posted on the Samsung Members forum, it's a forum post with no facts presented, just someone's personal opinion. There is no such thing as a Samsung Official Service Centre, ran and owned by Samsung. Samsung and other OEM's such as Oppo outsource the repairs of their phones under warranty to privately owned repair companies. Regarding your comment on the Engadget article, it is a properly reported piece that presents facts without hyperbole, including a statement issued by Samsung addressing the fault and detailing their plan to resolve it. Post facts please, not some opinion from social media with zero corroboration or proof.
>>109305799100% you are wrong, the Samsung forum posts are legitimate.
>>109305868You don't seem to understand or comprehend what I've wrote, so I'll explain. You, quoting a post from the Samsung Members Forum, as some kind of proof, would have the same veracity as a post quoted from this image board. Forum posts are personal opinions, not fact. You're confusing a post by a person on a forum owned by Samsung as the opinion or position of Samsung. What you're doing would be like blaming Mark Zuckerberg for a Facebook post and claiming it was his opinion, when it quite clearly wouldn't be. And again, a forum is a person's opinion, not fact.
>>109305868yup just ignore the anon covering up the samsung defects

>>109305942Don't bother trying to reason with them, your effort is wasted - they are the resident spammer and flame war starter and believe anything that makes Apple look good or Samsung (or any other Android OEM) look bad is a "fact" even if it's just some random post on reddit. Anything that disagrees with them is a "false" "opinion" that is written by "DA ANTI-iPHONE BAKER" (identified as anyone else who posts in the thread).They will literally read the first few words of an AI summary and claim it is "facts" that "prove" their bias, but if you actually read the summary it says the opposite of what they claim. Not a serious person, likely paid to spam and bait.
>>109305994This person is incorrect and I mean no disrespect but they need correcting. A green line on a mobile phone screen wouldn't be caused by a software upgrade, it's physical damage to the display panel caused by an impact with a hard surface, cable ribbon fault or even moisture ingress. I'd even lay the cause at heat damage from the SOC or battery ahead of a software error. A software issue wouldn't even been considered, it's physical damage or component failure, something that affects all OEM's, not just Samsung.
>>109306057debunk this video than, you can't. the software melts the connections from over heating. >>109298788
>>109306057And one more thing, an employee from a, "Samsung Official Service Center (sic)", wouldn't be testing a customer phone on large polystyrene packaging. The "technician" taking the video isn't very good at his job if he thinks a code error has caused this fault as the video seems to imply. A repair agent troubleshoots a fault in a methodical way on a test bench and not by laying the phone on TV packaging, video recording an issue that probably has more to do with the phone dropping on the floor because it was on an unstable base.

>>109306393Have you read your source? A software update, "may be causing". The S23 Ultra is a three year old phone. I've said previously, this tech is not built to last. Your telling me that these three year old phones have never been dropped onto the floor, immersed in water or even left by a window sill in the sun? This is hardware damage and not software. If it was software there would be hundreds of thousands damaged mobile phones.
>>109306488All the people reporting the green lines happening on their Samsungs during the update and all the videos showing it is enough proof for anybody with a triple digit IQ to understand the software update is causing the device to overheat and melting something inside. You're just a fanboy who is very salty about the truth about Samsung defects being posted here.
Wow they are such honest companies

>>109306581>slow charging>small battery No thanks
>>109306512>fanboyWhy the insults? I have no agenda, nor am I, "shilling" for any single manufacturer. I asked you to post proof and not conjecture. It is fact that this kind of damage is caused by physical damage, not software. Claiming that a software update heated up the phone, putting it under extreme load whilst flashing firmware is fanciful. A phone will reach the same temperatures during normal use. If a phone has been excessively used for an extended period of time, like a three year old S23 Ultra, under heavy load then this is most likely the cause of the physical damage and not a firmware update. And please, don't resort to name calling. Let's have a good debate, argue your point and persuade me that you're correct with actual evidence, not a tag line on some copyrighters piece that a green line, "may" have been caused by a software update or social media opinion posts.

>>109307003You’re just making things up. The person who had the s26 ultra catch fire lives in the USA. The service center they had check their phone was an official Samsung owned and operated location known as Samsung Electronics America. You are failing at covering this up. It’s all over the internet, people are discussing why Samsungs are catching fire again from the s21 to the latest flagship s26 ultra. Simple fact.
>>109307033Instead of the screenshot, post the actual links for your sources so I can investigate your claim. Whilst you're at it, why not post the links to show actual evidence that, "from the s21 to the latest flagship s26 ultra", "Samsungs are catching fire again", something I've not commented on or even referenced in the past. Stating things like, "It's all over the internet", and ,"Simple fact" are, much like your previous social media posts, just hollow, unsubstantiated comment and opinion.

LineageOS with mindthegapps is a decent experience ruined by app attestation. Yes, you may not be able to use a banking app but you can always use the web browser in conjunction with 2FA sent by SMS. The unlocked bootloader is one of the reasons a lot of people install GOS so they can relock it.
