/spg/ - Smartphone General

If I buy an unlocked phone in the US, will it work on any GSM carrier worldwide?

>The XZ2's for some reason have a bland display.
You can change the colour settings. You should know since the same setting is on the XZ1 Compact

Lol these burguers are classic fox and grapes.

Yeah, but what if he needs access to that stuff? The whole point of local storage is to have whatever you want on hand when you need it. What if his plan is keeping a TV collection on there? Or a shitload of games? The unlimited cloud backup for images and video is nice but it's not a magic bullet for storage.

As long as the frequencies match, sure. Most modern smartphones should get 2G and 3G pretty much everywhere, but 4G might not be guaranteed.

Not sure if this is the right thread for this but does anyone here have the Amazon HD 8? My family got memed on black Friday and bought some for ourselves for 30 bucks or something. They're nice enough, but the Fire OS is such fucking Ass with the ads. Does anyone know if I can completely change it to a basic Android OS and how?

Fuck.
Fucking japs…
Oh well, back it goes.
Another week without a phone then, because my trusty old blackberry now is really dead.

you can remove ads but not install another OS
for $30 it's also probably recording everything you say and sending it to amazon, I'd just throw it in the trash honestly and tell your family to not be retarded next time

the SE is not an expensive phone, why do you need to buy it used?
btw that button is extremely useful, not sure why you call it anachronistic.

>the SE is not an expensive phone, why do you need to buy it used?
Because it's not in production anymore, and, being apple, it's still overprized.
I never payed more than 300€ for a phone, and I have no intention of starting that shit now. Why would I pay so much for a fucking device that I can loose or wreck at any given moment, especially when a 1000€ phone does nothing 3 times better than a 300€ phone, but only marginally so, if at all. Most of the times, they all do things worse too, so it's an even worse deal.
>inb4 hurrdurr, lol, you poor

>btw that button is extremely useful, not sure why you call it anachronistic.
Yes, it might be useful, but it's just ironica that apple, of all manufacturers, is the only one since years, that still has such a button. They're dead since over 10 years, I'd think, apart from on iphones, which pioneered taking away buttons.
