Xiaomi Note 5 or Mi A2 Lite !?

If you're American, neither because they don't support American LTE bands
If you're not American, Note 5 because it's better hardware wise unless you're autistic about having an IR blaster on your phone

what can be done with a IR?

Is there any sort of worthwhile system app remover/freezer which doesn't need root?

I've always rooted my phones but I want to see what not doing that is like on my new device, just for experimentation.

Note 5 still has a micro USB port...

How does the Pixel 1 (not XL) hold up these days? Seems to be my only option for a phone that's not xbox hueg

Controlling TV's, cable boxes and home stereo amplifiers is my guess

why do xperias looks so nice?

So, I've narrowed down my choices to three phones. Help me with this, /spg/.
>Sony Xperia XZ (Screen has the best color contrast, I like the blocky design, much better performance than the XA)
>Sony Xperia XA (objectively better design than the xz, screen has a slightly blue-ish tint, fingerprint reader on the back instead of on the side of the device, better camera than the xz, but afaik not water resistant)
>HTC 10 (best screen, 4gb of ram, but only a 3000 mAh battery for a 2k screen)
The LG G5 and HTC one M9 are out of the question for several reasons.
