Here we go again. Apple is the best, we get it. Let's talk phones for people who aren't massive faggots though, this time.

Yea something is not right about all the broken Duo pics coming from China and only 1 in Australia and NONE are from the USA. Not buying the false narratives at all. Someone did a 10,000 fold test on the Duo and it was perfectly fine.https://x.com/mediastorm_en/status/2112940762291941794/video/1?s=46

>>110161153Geekerwan is highly reputable and respected amongst the reviewer community, and they have the most rigorous and professional testing software and equipment.

>>110161277I just think it’s very important because I want anons to understand those massive battery capacities could be cheating testing and really have lower mah tbqh.
>>110161300At what point is it considered spam when 50% of the posts in the thread are the same shit that I've seen for the past year in nearly every thread. It's a free world, so do what you want, I guess.
>>110161331There's no way you've been seeing the same stuff being posted for over a year, because some of the stuff literally just came out less than a few weeks ago.
Thinking if I should just get a renewed s24 ultra or wait for the s27's or some shit. Everything is just marginal upgrades aren't they?
>>110161494Wait for the S27 Ultra and always get a brand new flagship smartphone. Used phones have way too many negative variables that can make the phone problematic down the road. Used stuff quality always comes down to how well the previous owner(s) handled them.

Samsung can't even stop the green lines from happening and it's been a known issue since the s21. Android authority literally has articles out explaining how Samsung's own update is causing the green line issue too.https://r1.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-gallery/android-authority-green-line-bug-reports-acknowledged/td-p/26560512https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1p9x65b/samsung_green_lines_issue_is_back_users_claim/
The Great Noticing Continues
>>110165494Electricians figured the green line issues with Samsungs and they won't issue a recall or fix; it's the updates melting the ribbon connector. It's the year 2026 and Samsungs are STILL exploding, catching fire and getting green lines from software updates that overheat and internally damage the device. Incredible to see.

Here's the latest iOS 27 beta with the latest Siri ai VS the latest Gemini ai. You can use the link to watch the video to see the before and after results and it's not even close the new Siri AI beats the Gemini AI in photo and video editing. Google messed up the parking lot lines for the parking spaces, it also messed up the guy's eyes when removing glasses, it also messed up removing his hand holding the laptop and finally it was not able to remove the entire shelf against the wall. The new Siri ai did better even though it was a beta.https://youtu.be/d5wocIfmNbM?is=pe-m70UutkI313Tp
Everything you need to get an ad-free YouTube Music experience on iOS without paying for a subscription, you can sideload custom modified IPA files like YTLitePlus or YouTubeiVanced using tools like Sideloadly, AltStore, or SideStore. With Google locking down, it's crazy to think in 2027 iOS will be able to install files without a pc and android will need a 24 hour wait than a pc adb file load. No waiting time is needed to use ipa files and sideloaded apps on iOS.https://youtu.be/aJhO-bQbszo?is=5vu2cbq6pXgtLkR9

Everyone's calling out JereyRig for how unfair and fake his sand and debris test was for the iPhone Duo compared to the Fold 8. He used a pinch of sand for the Samsung with no rocks (of which he is a fan of) and used literally rocks with sand for the Duo. He's getting called out for how fake his tests are now too. He NEVER uses the same amount of sand and rocks and .makes sure Samsungs can pass the test. https://www.reddit.com/r/iPhoneDuo/comments/1xe9lv0/i_see_a_lot_of_people_cancelling_their_duo_orders/
>>110161106Apple were naive to think their braindead users wouldnt break a folding phone on day 1
>>110168070>Jerryrig exposed for faking his testingIt's so obvious how fake his test is. It's literally a pinch of sand from his fingers for the Samsung versus a handful of rocks for the Duo. Sad how room temperature iq anons can't even tell how blatantly rigged this is.
>>1101654173rd worlders cant afford a PC or console. their phone is all they have.
>>110168070Impressive levels of cope. I guess it's because of the price tag that people are reacting that way. Insane but they'll hopefully grow out of it.
>>110168070>>110168168Wow it’s very obvious tbqh he purposely made sure the Duo would fail and made sure the Samsung had VERY little tiny particles only dropped into the hinge
>>110168145>>110168217Saaaaaaars you should only buy used androids
>>110168218Finer grained sand would be worse, not better. It gets into more places its not supposed to. The irony.
>>110168226Bigger rocks damaged the Duo whereas tiny sand particles don't do anything do the Samsungs. Why isn't he pouring a handful of rocks like he did for the Duo into any Samsungs? It's VERY obvious and you're covering for the fake test. LOL! Now that's cope.
>>110168246You stand out like a sore thumb marketer san.
>>110168070>F and G testThey are really exposing how fake JerryRigs tests are and how he limits the amounts of sand and debris he puts into Samsung foldables. He even cleaned and removed the debris from the inner of the Fold 8, but he left all the debris in the inner display of the Duo.
I'm kinda shocked how borderline insane the tribalism around smartphones is. People in the ZFold subreddit are all circlejerking trying to reassure themselves that they made the best decision in buying a Samsung folding phone while talking down on the Duo constantly. The Apple subreddits are all justifying spending $2000 to beta test a product with a ridiculous failure rate and terrible software optimization. Foldables are still kinda just dogshit in general but people are so caught up in their corporate brand wars to see it.
>>110165772I have a padded sleeve that has an extra pocket for a microfiber cloth and a small folding stand. It's way too tall now, but it is wide enough. Never understood the point of plastic shell cases that seem to do fuck all given the screen is still exposed.
>>110165069>Apple has etched a nanotexture directly into the display itselfThat's a strange way to say applied a shitty 10 cent matte screen protector that they charge customers $50 to replace.
>>110166290Lotta nice new stuff in good lock. You can effectively make your own icon packs by adding effects like embossing and duo tone, and you can theme the volume slider with some animated skins. You can also add individual toggles as their own widgets in the quick menu now.
>>110168070To be fair, the Fold 8 is IP48 while the Duo claims to be IP68
>>110168417eeeh... apparently there's a way to get custom fonts working on 8.5 now, i'll test that and if it doesn't work i'll just updatehow's battery life/performance? 7, 8 and 8.5 were all worse than 6

First Red Magic 12 unboxing and benchmark tests. The new Snapdragon soc (Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6) crashed from overheating, even with liquid cooling and a fan.

>>110170297>fabricated story about PlayStation emulation I'm talking about Steam games retard. Android has been able to run them for a while now. Natively. Fold 8 can handle up to the equivalent of a late PS4 game from 2020. Benchmarks mean fuck all compared to real world usage. And in the real world Apple may have better hardware on paper but it's wasted on a platform that has no way to take advantage of it.
>got a moto g04>bought it for cheap from some dude back in 2024>battery is starting to fail, goes from 100 to 80% in one day without use>look up new phones>mfw the top range cost over $2kwho in hell pay that much for a phone?found a Motorola G67, too much camera for my tastei just want a simple phone with a good battery
>>110170820I'm talking about actual facts, not your fabricated stories. Here >>110161250 is the SAME game running natively on all 3 devices and the pixel 11 pro xl is lagging, the s26 ultra crashed and stopped running from overheating in under 15 minutes all while the iPhone 18 pro max is running smoothly. This is the perfect example and how the 2 Android devices are struggling while the iOS device isn't. That is a real world test unlike your opinionated and made up scenarios. Here's the results for more real world 3dMark test too. >>110170143
>>110170906Fr this and I’m pretty sure you’re the same anon who posted this >>110162626 Versus video which shows the base model iPhone 17 outperforming the Fold 8 soc in benchmark and gaming tests. They should study how hard Qualcomm fell off, because it’s truly remarkable.
Samsung NEVER fixed the battery issues..... they should be forced to do recalls like they had to with the Note 7.
Another Samsung exploded. This one happened in the USA.
Multiple people have now posted how they have a s26 ultra with a blown up battery that made the back pop off. Samsung never fixed their battery defects. Few more new s26 ultra with imploding batteries unfortunately happened too after this one....
>ChinaSurprisingly they like various smartphone and Apple is in second place over there. https://counterpointresearch.com/en/insights/china-smartphone-share
>>110170906>benchmark softwareNobody cares pajeet. It's like that Acer gaming laptop that had sli 1080's but could only actually use one of them. Bragging rights, nothing else. Benchmark results is not real world usage. And in the real world, the actual software capabilities of Android leaves anything running iOS in the dust. Apple is incapable of producing an answer to stuff like GameNative and Droid deck. https://youtu.be/s2slTOR-zTYOnly Indians care about who has the best benchmark results.

This thread is so shit, the entire market segment has gone to hell, foldables have become the baseline luxury phone, normal shaped solid slab smartphones like the the iphone 18 pro max are no longer status symbols, they look like outdated hunks of shit from last decade when everyone else, even poorfags are buying foldables.Anyways I just spent $300 on a the most high specced phone on the market I could find that still has expandable storage and 3.5mm headphone jacks, i'm probably never buying a smartphone ever again, wish me luck minna!
Bogpill me on fair phoneI don't need a good camera or a strong processor or a lot of ram. I enjoy the idea of changing my battery every few years.Considering just buying jeetdroids and replacing them biannually at this point.
The battery issues with Samsung smartphones are very shocking and sad.S25+ exploded in China:https://r1.community.samsung.com/t5/%EA%B0%A4%EB%9F%AD%EC%8B%9C-s/%EA%B0%A4%EB%9F%AD%EC%8B%9C-s25%ED%94%8C%EB%9F%AC%EC%8A%A4-%ED%8F%AD%EB%B0%9C/td-p/39055776
Very interesting!
Apple is working on making their own glass panels for iPhones and iWatches in American factories.
Here's a s26 catching fire even though it was new and sealed in the box.

don't you have anything better to do than to repost the same shit over and over, nobody on this board is worshipping samsung
>>110171847Do you have anything useful to post instead of always complaining?
>>110171856aren't you complaining too?
>>110171741The primary marketing point of Fairphones is that they're "fair" to everyone in the supply chain, i.e. they're sourced ethically. I think one of the internal components has DRCs territory printed on it. Personally I don't see much of a point to removable batteries.

on the scale of bendgate to exploding note 7 how bad is crackgate
>>110172036i think a hardware defect out of the box is better than your phone getting banned on flights and forcibly taken away from you by getting banned on all major networks
>>110172036They are all bad, but the Note 7 issue was “fixed” and the replacement units were exploding too and the phones harmed people and are permanently banned from any Airplane flight. >>110172036Agreed.

It's the 10 year anniversary of the Note 7. It's still happening.
Samsungs own forum is FULL of complaints about its foldables lagging and the screens bending into the device at the corners. It’s also full of people complaining that their Samsung smartphones caught fire or exploded. Meanwhile here you have anons defending a company that can NOT STOP its devices from blowing up and causing third degree burns to people.
>>110172970Also theirs MANY complaints about Samsung smartphones getting green lines from software updates which causes overheating and the device melts from the inside. Truly remarkable engineering placing ribbon connectors next to the SOC.
Based DameTech video, the s26 ultra kept crashing without a cooler. The A19 Pro achieved higher frame rates as well.Example of a s26 ultra thermal throttle crashing in under 15 minutes. See: >>110161250https://youtu.be/clETUqUpyco?is=H3sX5as15d6U0lMr
after using a Nord ce 3 lite for years, I think I'll wait for black Friday and get a google pixel 11 or 10 pro. currently both cost 800€ and 850€ respectively for 256 gb models and I think that's too much.I briefly looked at Samsung but it's OS is shit by comparison and I can't believe they're seriously selling 4000 mAh batteries in 2026.Would you anons recommend anything else? I just want a good camera with decent enough performance, otherwise i would've already bought the 10a but the tensor g4 is ass.
Another DameTech video. iPhone 17 Pro Max vs Galaxy S26 Ultra Gaming Comparison. The A19 Pro had higher fps averages.https://youtu.be/Evy9NGnw6Fg?si=jXnJ4c_kYGbMk9U9
>>110169460>>110173007So why can't Samsung figure out how to properly design future smartphones that don't overheat and explode? Even brands that don't sell globally are not having issues with Qualcomms latest Snapdragon flagship SOC.
