I have my new-in-box S10 in my bag but I also have night school and then work tomorrow so I can't play with it until tomorrow night should I just jump off a building to end my suffering?

rn7 or rn7p? is the extra cost worth the difference in the camera resolution? In the first place, is there a big difference between 1k and 2k resolution images.
John Nelson
Wait for pro Samsung sensors are garbage and regular note 7 has it
Jayden Sanchez
Camera isn't the only upgrade, Pro also has SD675 which is a lot faster than the SD660 in the regular Note 7.
Henry Gomez
Be careful, let me hold that bag for you first
Austin Garcia
I know but I'm interested in the camera aspect only. Any solid answers for camera res.?
Caleb Roberts
Was planning to buy an s10+ but now I'm being offered a used s9 for free. Now I'm not sure what to do and no I can't sell or trade-in the s9 for the s10+. So, whatcha think? >free s9 >buy s10+ ?
Ian Rogers
Use s9 for a year or so, then buy s10 for a decreased price
Huawei mate 20 lite or Honor 8x? Are there phones with similar or better specs around that price? I mostly looking for a phone with non hybrid dual sim. Unless it has 128gb of internal storage (which is unlikely at that price). I read about the Pocophone f1 but can't find the 128gb version at a good price near my area.
Jaxon Collins
Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 / M2 have non-hybrid dual SIM.
Max m2 good dad phone 4000mah, 4gb ram Low ppi and bad cameras don't matter because he's too old to tell the difference

Adam Price
I second this:
Gavin Nelson
Thanks
Kevin Cook
I will be getting news phone in may. Budget 600$. What should i get?
Aaron Reyes
Oneplus 7
Christian James
get rid of the front camera entirely and it's a fucking beautiful phone.
Josiah Thomas
this if you want a stock-like ROM and a big battery. get a Xiaomeme (Mi9 or Mix 3) if you want a more affordable alternative and don't mind a small battery, lack of SD card slot and headphone jack, and heavy skin.
Levi Hall
What about Samsung S10? Im kinda Samsung fan but mi9/mix3 and oneplus they both looks good.
for most people, yeah just give it ten years wouldn't surprise me if samsung and the like start adding a monitor, keyboard and mouse to their pre orders to encourage people to use dex with the samsung s20
Brandon Ross
Should I get the mi a2 lite or the redmi note 5? They are the same price where I live but as a manlet I feel like the size on the note would be awkward to handle, but at the same time the cameras on the á2 look noticeable worst, can't really decide
James Williams
Yup, even s10e is out of your budget.
Austin Carter
how small are hands exactly? I would get the note 5 bc of better chipset and camera.
Christian King
Mate because quick charge.
Tyler Watson
get the Note 5, faster processor, better cameras, no notch. Just get a pop socket or one of those ring holders if you think the size might be an issue
Mason Myers
around 20cm across with the fingers extended sounds like a solid idea, thanks
Justin Diaz
wwait for redmi note 7? they all are nearly at the same price point
Xavier Robinson
waiting on SHIFTmu
Aaron Taylor
When the fuck are they going to release the Pocophone F2? Feels too late to buy an F1 now.
Jacob Jenkins
How much will S10e be?
Joseph Perry
it must be still some months away, there hasn't been a single leak about it.
Evan Russell
$749 / 749€
Evan Martin
I just bought a OnePlus 5T cause it was at an amazing price ($350) in mint condition. On my OP3, I used LineageOS and it has a few annoying issues like deleting song playlists when updating.
Anybody know if Oxygen OS is less of a botnet on 5T or if Lineage is any good on it? Or maybe there's an alternative custom OS I can install that's better these days?
Redmi Note 7 is launching in Spain on March 14. 3GB/32GB will sell for 149€ for the first 5000 phones sold, and 179€ after that. 4GB/4GB model will be 199€. event.mi.com/es/redmi-note-7/new-launch
Tyler Stewart
Avoid that Its regular note 7 Wait for pro
Jace Morris
What phones would you consider cute then?
Dylan Moore
Does anyone know why the Redmi Note 7 Pro is using outdated MIUI 10 instead of newer MIUI 11? My biggest concern is that the newer version enables a few less features and ability to flash in some proprietary functionality (GALILEO gps and aptX, possibly even Sony LDAC)
Adrian Rodriguez
>Does anyone know why the Redmi Note 7 Pro is using outdated MIUI 10 instead of newer MIUI 11? ????
MIUI 10 is the latest version, MIUI 11 hasn't even been announced yet.
Andrew Evans
In Hong Kong I got the S10 8/128 for 5500HKD which is about 700USD. Why do you guys insist on paying so much for phones?
Jace Lee

Chase Perry
got an HTC 10 a while back per /spg/'s recommendation, and was generally happy with it up until lately the touchscreen is having hardware issues, so i'm looking for a new phone. gsmarena isnt too helpful because i can't narrow by carrier (i'm on sprint for the time being, so CDMA) so i figured i'd ask here again
required: >works with sprint >unlockable bootloader >at least 64gb storage if no sd card >headphone jack huge plus for: >less than $300 full price >removable battery >fingerprint reader >nfc/jewtooth >scratch-resistant screen
basically something that will match up to my experience with the htc 10, will hopefully last a while, and not break the bank
Christian Lee
There are no removable battery phones anymore, every screen nowadays is scratch resistant and Bluetooth and FP reader is mandatory For that price get Moto G 7/7+ or check bands for pocophone f1
Dylan Martin
I like that all the S10e reviews recognise it as the better option before the S10 or S10+. Side fp reader is the better choice and flat screen is more convenient .
The sony phone looks really practical and aesthetic
Jackson Cruz
That's not surprising of them to do though, they said the same thing about the iPhone xr compared to the xs/max
Nathaniel Taylor
>go to gsmarena phone finder >the ONLY phone left with 4gb and
Benjamin Roberts
Pull that Sony phone out nowadays and women will laugh at you. t someone who owns a Sony tipo.
Matthew Cook
They released a brand new phone this year with a removable battery
Ian Sullivan
does anyone have any experience with that if the xiaomi note 6 pro bends?
Easton Walker
Is the Pocophone f1 really good? I'm may be getting the 128gb global version but hearing how good it is makes me question its legitimacy.
Aaron Peterson
it really is that good
Jacob Peterson
why do you want to bend your phone bro
Tyler Stewart
How easy is it for someone with no previous experience to swap the MIUI with regular Android, if possible at all?
Bentley Lee
Most people go with LineageOS, its as easy as unlocking the bootloader via Xiamoi themselves which takes 1-72hrs, then follow any Youtube guide. At this point most 5 year olds could do it.
Mason Nelson
Can't wait for ARM processors to have 1 gig of L2 cache.
Lincoln Evans
not hard at all, there's plenty of guides online to do it. The basic steps are the same on most Android phones: 1. unlock the booloader 2. install a custom recovery (TWRP) 3. flash a custom ROM such as LineageOS 4. optional: flash google apps and/or root
I was just about to go a oneplus 6t but this is relatively same specs, but headphone jack and microsd slot for literally half price. Shit does seem kinda two good to be true
Mason Gutierrez
Alright I bought a Poco F1 128gb for 264€ it better not be a memephone.
Matthew Butler
need purchasing advice
>switching from iphone >in US >want headphone jack >don't have a preference for size or budget, not sure how to start decision
Jackson Morales
>don't have a preference for size or budget Kind of hard to give any suggestions then. What iPhone are you switching from? What's your carrier?
Adam Nguyen
Thanks anons. I'm looking for a new phone now that my Galaxy S5 is on the verge of death.
Torn mostly between the Pocophone and Xiaomi Mi A2/Mi 8 Lite, and even the Huawei Honor Play. Though I heard the Honor Play's camera is not that great, which is a bummer for me because I like taking architecture pictures and I'm too broke to buy an actual camera...
Noah Ortiz
The honor play is less powerful than the pocophone but has more useless shit like NFC
Dominic Morgan
>I like taking architecture pictures and I'm too broke to buy an actual camera. get the Pocophone then, it has the best camera out of those phones, especially with GCam.
Benjamin Myers
Carrier is AT&T. I am switching from iPhone 6. I don't know what would differentiate each phone in terms of preference.
Cameron Hall
Does the pocophone have ads right out of the box? And how does one go about unlocking a poco once you get it?
Jace Martin
what do you do with your phone? play games? take photos? listen to music? just basic phone stuff?
Dylan Edwards
>Does the pocophone have ads right out of the box? No ads as long as the region is set to a western country
Just ordered a s10 for $1230 CAD on a plan for 4gig/m with 500 min/m nationwide talk and it comes with the free earphones from koodo. How did I do? Is there better deals in canadaland? With koodo you can pay off phone for 90 days. So I'm stuck on it for 3 months. Public has better data plan but doesn't offer phone deals.
Jaxson Wilson
God damn
Carson Lopez
Yes, and I don't want it to lag. Also, I want to root it to get cracked stuff and more customization. This second point is why I am switching.
Can you lineage AND get the new widevine support that just came out?
Henry Stewart
Wait for Oneplus 7
Luis Williams
>2017
James James
yes, I think you can flash a Custom ROM and keep Widevine L1
Justin Walker
what did you expect for $200? It has Android Pie and official LineageOS builds, what else do you need?
Jaxson Anderson
I was thinking about that phone too. Does anyone knows the real storage capacity counting what the system uses?
Samuel Gray
I mean isn't that the price to buy s10 outright S10e is like 1k already
Hunter White
10e is nowhere near compact
Parker Long
No. The 128gig s10 here straight from Samsungs site is $1259 plus tax. It was the best offer I could find because I don't got a trade in device. Just wanted to know if I missed something better.
