Is this the best phone ever made?
no
Fpbp
S5 mini was better since the charger and headphone jack didn't have covers and were still fully waterproof, I've never seen this since
you were so close
I still use mine. Do any phones these days still come with an IR blaster? I use it all the time to turn off TVs in hotel lobbies or at the gym.
xiaomi phones
I'm just posting from one using clover.
This and Note 4 were the perfect samsung smartphones. Too bad their android version was left behind to 6.0.1 and lineageOS still have bugs and issues on them.
My xCover 3 had those too. I only stopped using it because the back cover kept falling off after 2 years of use.
>Is this the best phone ever made?
Possibly. If only Samsung released an exact upgrade to it, without hardware gimmicks. It was also the Samsung device to develop custom ROMs for.
Nexus 5 my dude
>only available in one country in the world
>Too bad their android version was left behind to 6.0.1 and lineageOS still have bugs and issues on them.
That and the CPU which will inevitably lag no matter which ROM you were using. Camera was the best for the time though.
Yes it is.
>AMOLED
>1080p, no more or less
>mSD card
>IR blaster
>removable battery
>non-glass body
>IP 67
>headphone jack
>lots of useful sensors
There should be an upgrade to this phone, but sadly no phone is better. We need a device with identical hardware but with more recent CPU (possibly 835), 4GB+ RAM and 32GB+ storage. And speaker in a non shit position.
The only device that's better is LG G5, but it sadly isn't AMOLED.
I still use mine for shitposting and media even though I have a note 9 now
>he fell for the OLED meme.
Lower actual resolution and burn in just because MUH color saturation.
Charging port is fragile and stopped working for me. Also the default OS is absolute pajeet tier malware
I preferred the Oneplus 3 despite it lacking some features over the S5
stock android is ass
Water resistant doesn't mean water proof
Any Samsung flagship since that phone has better water resistance.
>abandoned by google at android 6
>abandoned by lineageos at android 7
>Charging port is fragile and stopped working for me
thats why you should use wireless charging
based and redpilled
I'm literally still running a note 4 I bought on release day.
There has been no phone since that has everything I want.
Frankly it still runs fine for me.
I've used my s5 mini in the shower since release day and as an underwater camera in pools on holiday, If it's not waterproof, It's close enough
yeah, had mine for 4 years and it still works good and does everything I need
I fucking regret buying my huawei P9 on sale.. didnt know S5 will came up on sale after it [spoilers] nearly 40% cheaper than my P9[/spoilers]
Burn in occurs of you keep the maximum brightness all the time, if you constantly keep it around 50% then the screen will degrade in time much slowly.
Still looking for an upgrade to my s6. Seems like the s7 is the only way up without losing features like a home button, non notch, and right angle corners
Samsung S4, the official phone of [s4s] and best phone forever
I have an iPhone 4 and it works fine, my only problem is that my battery goes down fast. But if I keep it on airplane mode it lasts for days, I don't get many calls, it is just for emergencies. Everything else can be said to me over Discord or something.
Why the fuck does every Galaxy's charging port stop working at some point? Am I too strong or is it the chicken grease?
the fingerprint sensor if fucking ass on this phone
I loved my S5 but it started having major charge and software issues after three years of nonstop use.
Plus the storage management became a pain in the ass even with a decent sized sd card
>Caring about physical buttons
>Not turning off the notch
You morons never ceases to amaze me with what you bitch about.
Woah it's almost like people have preferences
>I have no life
What a depressing fucking post.
/Thread
not one made by Samsung for sure
Preferences based on the need to act superior not in any logical reason
Get a fucking flip phone, loser.
What's the point of a smart phone if you're gonna keep all the antennas off?
pretty much the main reason why i shill qi charging. used it almost exclusively for nexus 4,5, and 6
Still using mine and I've had it about 3 years... had the S2 before which was also totally fucking solid. Not sure where I would go next, might just try to pick up another S5.
The note 4 was the last smartphone worth using. I cherish it's memory. I've used a burner since the note 4 was retired.
Flip phone = not free
Phone I already have = free
Phone you stole because you're a nigger = free
Iphone 5.
If the port doesn't work, can you access files on your PC wirelessly? If you want to root it?
I think the point is to protect the port by not using it for charging but only for file transfers only which should be a lot less frequent. Alternatively you can always replace the usb port which is a major pain in the ass because the glued screen needs to be removed and can easily break during this process.
Still, have mine. Works, but the battery needs to be replaced.
That's not the honor 5x
I had an S5, except it wasn't just any S5, it was the shitty Sprint exclusive S5 Sport. It was a tiny bit bigger than the regular S5, which meant I couldn't use an S5's case. Hell, it even got water damaged. I have the phone 67878135 mentioned now (LG G5), and it's alright. Not too bad.
Pic related, took it with my G5 today.
Just buy another. You can get one on amazon for cheap. Or ebay for even cheaper.
Ha, that's exactly what happened to me. Attempted to replace the port and fucked up the screen.
That's an odd looking iPhone 8+ OP.
iphone 5, lg g2, oneplus 5t are the best smartphones ever made
I have the at&t version so I can't root.
>Durable
>OLED display
Pick one.
>having indisputable the worse model from galaxy line: s6: no card, small non removable battery, no cfw
>s7 is the only way up
HA HA HA HA good one

Anyone using a Samsung A5 2017?
Been using mine since its release, I found it a great phone for its price at the time. And beaides a cracked screen and back, no problems whatsoever.
Anyone had flaws or their own opinion on them? All I see here is just talk about the S-models.
The LG v35 is
>phoneposter
kek.
Wow we are quite alike. I went over to the 3T after my S5 gave out on me after 3 nice years of use. Port was pretty fucked by then and it was laggy as shit. But still a cozy device desu
>mfw got bullhead instead of hammerhead
Fuck.
How bad is lineageOS on of these? Is it usable?
>>job title

>>do you like it or does it crush your soul
I commute 2 hours to work and 2 hours from work every day. It's crushing me but the job is okay and I have a good friend at work. Will probably try to find a new job closer to home when my contract expires in March.
>>advice for Jow Forumstards who want into the industry
Know some people on the inside? In all honesty I don't know where they hire these stupid IT specialists. My laptop came with the BIOS unlocked.
not that user but it's pretty good. if you have the sprint version, you'll still need to fuck around with the apn settings to get mvnos to work (i had to manually edit my config file and flash it to get tello to work).
no android pie yet but it really is an excellent phone. My bro wants a new phone and I was thinking of giving him mine so i can get a newer phone but there's not much that really stands out while not being 2-3x the price.
I'll just copy paste what I said about it yesterday
I'm still on LG G3 l, buddy, everyone complains that it bootloops yet it never did that for me, I even bought another one with a fried mobo for cheap to replace the screen I smashed in on mine
Ever since applel pųshed the locked battery meme no phone has been appealing, I'm not gonna ((convert)) and bother with cords and powerbanks
Simple swap and boot is all I need from time to time
Now the galaxy s5 specs wise looks like the best there is with a swapable battery
It even kills the
>m-muh water resistence
Meme because last I checked it was on par with the pixel 2 on that front
Now I don't use touchjizz or heavy social media apps like you, kiddo, that would crash my phone so highly doubt it would start doing that for me and anyone else who is not a zoomer
And for the record other applel pushed memes are killing new phones for me
>shitty usb to analog audio
>notches everywhere
>no sd slots
What's with all this degeneration on the phone market
I'll avoid buying a new phone until it feels like an upgrade, thank you very much
And don't tell me about processing power, how much more do you need to process a webpage and watch a video, noone worth their shit is gonna render or game on their phone
And uptime has barely improved, considering you cant even swap a battery

whvih camera was better? S5 or G5 one?
>samshit
Nah. They're aged to the point where it's better to adapt. I'm fully converted to dumb life now. I'll return when samsung makes a flagship with a removable battery at the very least.
not even close m8
S7 is much better
>Nostalgia posting
None of those phones are usable today
fucking phones now all are +5"
I'm nominating rooted S3 to be the best phone of its time.
agreed. if only i could run pajeetOS on my verizon model. mershmallow touchjizz is lame. and unsecure.
No. This is.
>1.2mp front camera
no thanks
S5 neo > S5
Same. I've been using this bad boy for years now and I see no reason to upgrade for years to come.
Nexus 5.
>low cost with usb2.0 instead of usb3.0
No
airdroid nigga
s5 mini is the perfect phone (had it for over 3 years and upgraded bcos i just wanted more storage) miss it soo much
