is there a way to forcefully disable full screen apps in MIUI even when they claim they're "optimized" for it?
I tried out some games to see how they run and there are UI elements that get obscured by the rounded corners

Why are there no female tech reviewers? Especially smartphone reviewers?

They DO make up the majority of smartphone consumers and are responsible for cementing the front-facing camera trend.

Cooling is cool by definition. You literally can't argue with that.

For what purpose? The only way any of the SD855 phones will throttle is by benchmarking several times in a row. I mean if you want to wank to that, good for you.

There's Erica Griffin, Lisa Gade from MobileTechReview, Krystal Key, iJustine (LMAO), Angie Zampona (girl who does some of the GSMarena video reviews)...

Bought a P30 Pro, returned it.
Camera zoom and low light is fancy but colors weren't even accurate in daylight and it over processes everything, making everything look unnatural.

When did the gap between samsung/apple and all the rest happen? I remember when htc and motorola had flagships just as good.
Also why did google drop nexus to focus only on the pixel? Fuck i hate the all glass trend. I just want like the new guts and screen in the body of a moto x.

I guess other companies simply hate my money. But this year is definitely an improvement over the previous one with a whopping 3 phones that caught my attention.

>Umidigi
I've never heard of them and going off the spec sheet alone, they seem too good to be true. What's the catch here? What am I not seeing?

dogshit ram usually. the higher end ones are good tho, just dont buy anything running android go

gearbest.com/cell-phones/pp_009480705380.html?wid=1349303

you guys said it'd be 450...

>he listens to /spg/ without a shill filter
Oh no no no...

The F1 Play has 6GB at 1800mhz, is that really dogshit?
Which ones are the "higher end" ones? I'm weighing this against a G7 Power 4GB right now.

redmi A2 lite, note 6 pro, note 7 or huawei P9 ?

Note 7.

Currently holding my new s10+ prism blue

This is the most beautiful device I've ever held in my hands. Ever.

Posting from my new pixel 3a. I never knew stock android could be so good. I don't even like taking photos but the camera way above my needs, maybe I should start taking more photos.

Can someone explain to me why the Pixel 2/3 don't have a LineageOS ROM?

The US version of Moto G7 Power only has 3GB RAM

What's stopping me from importing the European one?
Either way, the more I read about the F1 Play, the more it looks like a miracle phone for its price. The only downside is that I'll be stuck on stock Android 9.0, but I'm not intelligent enough to know why that matters.

how do you dispose of a broken phone?
I can't sell it broken and I'll be losing money by repairing it to sell it on

can someone please just make a fucking logical increments style image for smartphones

easy, trashcan.

Now that’s a sophisticated Jow Forums approved post.

...

The European version doesn't support all the US bands (Global = Euro version, NA = US version):
kimovil.com/en/frequency-checker/us/motorola-moto-g7-power

If I understand, there is 3 versions of the Note 7:
>3 GB RAM + 32 GB storage
>4 GB + 64 GB
>4 GB + 128 GB
So, what's going on with the online sellers that sells "64GB phones with 3GB RAM"? Are they just selling 4/64 phone with an improperly filled spec description or they're just scam? Or I missed something?

mi 9 not reccomended?

depends, if burger get Asus
if not burger, check LTE bands and pick what's in your budget

>owning a phone from a company called Nubia and expecting it to work

Either way, I think I'm going to pick up a F1 Play unless there's a better Umidigi option out there.
It looks like it's just a G7 Power but with double the RAM and storage and an hd screen.

Should I get black, white, or yotsuba b

There was a post by a LineageOS dev that explained it but I can't find it, but basically the reason Pixel 2/3 and OnePlus 6/6T don't have official LineageOS yet is the A/B partition system. There's a lot of code rework required to get it work properly with LineageOS.

check out the Umidigi F1 Play on xda, there is at least one thread on there where people are having success installing GSIs on the phone so you won't necessarily be stuck on Pie, see pic related

Attached: Screenshot_Via_20190508-151501.png (1023x2048, 416K)

Probably just a mistake in the spec description

Yotsuba b

VERY recommended
I dig the purple and the black one, not as keen on the white

all publications are saying it's $500, try not to buy it from a chink retailer and get it off either Amazon or eBay

>asus IPSfone 6
hope you enjoy the LED glow

It's out
youtu.be/ySMGudnpdXQ

when does it launch anyways?

I am in need of a new phone, any general recommendations for around 250 €, big battery, size about 5 to 5.5 inches? unlocked/easily unlockable bootloader and headphone jack is a plus

had a redmi note 3 and was pleasantly surprised by the phone

Cheers, but it seems weird that a Google phone isn't easier to flash custom firmware onto considering that used to be a major selling point in the Nexus era, guess they finally went full kike.

Anyone actually succeeded in filling shallow/medium depth scratches on a gorilla glass screen? Managed to get sand under screen protector, and now have a pleasure of having a couple minor scratches that catch the light of the sun at certain angles.
Google points at some products like quixx/poly watch, but reviews are not stellar.

just deal with them they're just microscratches you absolute autist

Eh I got a S10e 256gb for 700 before tax from Samsung. -100 dollar coupon, 50 for .edu

Based retard couldn't wait for the S11 with the new camera tech.

>Implying I'm not going to get it if its worth it
Got the 10e just to get out of iOS

Where to buy 30th anny Asus Zenfone 6?

Just want to see if there is a reliable way to fill them, since I want to use my phone for as long as possible and would rather not stare at scratches. It's not a huge deal if there is nothing that can be done.

I'm waiting on my ceramic to come in tomorrow. Beyond hype

This actually one of the three phones I'm choosing from this year.

Based retard couldn't wait for the S12 with better processor

looks awesome

Attached: Galaxy Note 10.jpg (2400x1345, 191K)

The other two being k20 pro and zenfone 6 I presume?

As far as I'm aware there isn't any way to 'fill up' scratches, the best you can do is get a product that can sand off/polish the area around the scratches and even then that'll only work with really shallow ones or not at all.

Based retard couldn't wait for the S13 no curved screen

I wonder what would happen to it underwater.

Based retard couldn't wait for the S14 no screen

Yep, that's pretty much what people write about these polishing compounds. Works ok for really shallow defects, so-so for medium/deep. Oh well.

Hole punch displays are worse than notches.

looks the same than pretty much every phone released in the few past years

Redmi Note 7

Pixel 3 or 3a? Assuming I can get the 3a for $350 and the 3 for $450

Well both have horrible battery life
I would go for the 3

does it support 5G? otherwise no buy.

should have bought a case and screen protector goyim

Both are retarded, and neither is better than the other.

All these seem good enough for me.

Does RAM setup matters on phones? Like if you get a 6GB one is just a single channel and if you get 8 it's double channel 4x2?

Learn to read, ESL nigger.

There's other ways to castrate yourself user.

It does not
Android developers are brainless fucktards that does not care about optimization so get the the most ram you can get

take your pills, schizo

dilate

schizos are trannies, so why don't you?

It's almost always single channel.

Anyone here tried out Walmart ONN 10'' tablet? How is the screen? Does it feel sluggish?

I got the cash but none of the phones excite me. I returned the huawei p30 pro because of the shit gui and inaccurate colors when talking photos. Xperia 1 has a tiny battery and already feels outdated before it's out.

This phone is fucking ugly.

>t. seething microscratch cuck

It's a phone, why does it need to excite you?

Pixel 3a, Redmi K20 Pro, Oneplus 7 Pro or Zenfone 6? My priority is camera

Camera? 3a.
Overall? 7 Pro with gcam.
