Still can't decide between the OP7 Pro and the K20 Pro.
OP7 Pro is bigger, has better screen, camera and specs.
K20 Pro is almost $400 cheaper, has a headphone jack.

Black Shark 2 is a top-trim OP7P for the price of the base model.

you decide

>better screen
>(((curved)))
>better screen

I understand if you dislike MIUI, but in what way is xiaomi bad for its price?
I paid 200€ for a Pixel Experience Pocophone, what better deal is there to be had?

How do you plan to use your phone? If you plan to use it as a mobile browsing device like most people, I'd strongly recommend against anything above ~$200

Higher resolution.
90 Hz

>How do you plan to use your phone? If you plan to use it as a mobile browsing device like most people, I'd strongly recommend against anything above ~$200
this
people waste so much money on "flagships" when 200€ phones do 95% of the same stuff just as well
unless you're rich save the money and invest it instead

What's the point if human eye can't see more than 60Hz 1280x720?

>he doesn't count higher refresh rate screen and 1440p res as better screen
batteries are shit as fuck, literally battery in my 1.5 year old mi note 2 already went down to 70% of advertised capacity, while my previous phone, lg g3 didn't have that problem
it has shit aesthetics you know
are you really this retarded? i have 144hz monitor and it looks so smooth, your theory is cancelled bye

Show me a 200 dollar or below phone with 855, oled, and big battery

>855, oled
you don't need this.
>and big battery
G7 Power, Redmi Note 7

>he
Ex-fucking-cuse me?

kys

>batteries are shit as fuck
At least with the Pocophone it's really easy to replace though, it's why I bought it in the first place.
Batteries are a lot of hit and miss in general and while some companies fuck up big time (like Motorola with their Moto Z), I didn't hear of a Xiaomi model that had failing batteries left and right.
>855, oled, and big battery
Oled is probably the only thing that is actually worse in most ~$200 devices and the shit panels used for them die quicker than those on high end phones (in my experience).
But the 855 is just not necessary. 5G won't be important for the next 2 years or so, at which point most people will just buy a new phone anyway and give the old one to some family member and processing power isn't a limiting factor for 99.9% of what a smartphone does.
If you're somebody hardcore gaymen on a phone that might be different, but I doubt that most Jow Forumsentoomen game on their phones.

>he doesn't count higher refresh rate screen and 1440p res as better screen
Anything higher than 1080p just takes a toll on battery life and nothing more.
>batteries are shit as fuck, literally battery in my 1.5 year old mi note 2 already went down to 70% of advertised capacity, while my previous phone, lg g3 didn't have that problem
Good, so, get your battery replaced. I'm sure your OnePlus' batteries never need replacing and also never degrade over time.
>it has shit aesthetics you know
Subjective.

>K20 is the best value in any phone since the $199 Galaxy Nexus
>It's coming in two other flavors for various markets
>None of them support US bands
Fuck. This was intentional, wasn't it?

god I fucking love being European

imagine living in US with simlocks and shit tier bands
t. superior european

I just want a phone with 4500+ mah battery, 1080p oled display and 6.4+ inch.

I've got an old Huawei P8 I'm looking to replace with something smaller.
After handling my friend's Iphone 5, I'm sold on having a smaller smartphone that I can actually operate with 1 hand. I don't need a lot of power since I'll just be web browsing and listening to music.

What phone fits these criteria:
>4-4.5" screen
>good battery life
>halfway-decent camera
>3.5mm headphone jack
>no "notch" or other weird shit
>fits in an AU$300 budget

Attached: 1555240645688.jpg (1093x1852, 740K)

iPhone SE, it's discontinued though so you gotta look for used ones. Sony XZ1 Compact if you want Android.

OxygenOS is the straw for me. Go with OnePlus.

Who knows at this point? Xiaomi has made phones that work in the US in past. Wait for a global release.

Is the Pixel 3a the best phone I can get for 400$ until mid june in america or is there any other chinkshit that has better value?

Not very tech savvy gull here.
Looking to upgrade from Xiaomi Note 5 to another Xiaomi branded phone.

Country: USA
Carrier: Tracfone/Straight Talk
Budget: preferably under $400
Size: Nothing smaller than 5.5"
Wanted Features: more LTE bands, camera at least the same as the Note 5 (12+5mp dual/13mp front), battery around 4000mAh (higher or slightly lower is good)

Please give suggestions. I really just want to play Pokemon Go without losing signal, take cosplay selfies, and photograph my dress collection.

So what are the prices for K20/Pro?

I seriously would consider buying this to replace my redmi note 4 if it had good custom rom support.
My phone is still up to date with security updates because of that.

Personally I think the 3a is rather bad value, but it depends on your usecase I guess. If you're willing to flash on your own, I'd recommend a Xiaomeme with Pixel Experience.
If you're not willing to dig into custom roms, I'd recommend waiting for a good deal on a nokia and only if the camera is the most important to you, I'd get the 3a.

lads.

i got a new dumbphone.
i don't have an SD card in yet but it has like 4 gb of memory by default. i want to access it from my pc (windows 10) to retrieve the pictures i took and add some music but i don't how.

when i connect it with usb, it's not detected.
i managed to connect it through bluetooth and it shows up in bluetooth devices and devices manager but i can't like open it to see the files.

am i too dumb to use a dumbphone?

Attached: 1525196147496.gif (266x268, 1.07M)

Have you checked to make sure it's not on charging mode instead of file transfer when it connects to usb?

Redmi Note 7 has LTE B2/4/5 for US, if you want more bands get a Mi Mix 2s or 3, those have almost all US LTE bands.

well damn, it had a well hidden security setting called "usb storage". i turned it on and now it shows up just fine as usb device. thanks a lot.

I've ordered my Redmi Note 7.
What is the best kind of case?

flip covers are shit, no protection from falls and they flap around and get in the way

Everyone knows Redmis are for poorfags.

The word nigger has evolved from the shackles of its former meaning. It is no longer simply a racial slur to be used against blacks. It can now be used broadly, like if your friend does something stupid you can call him out for acting like a total nigger, and it'll fit. You can't use curry, shitskin, chink or gook with the same versatility as the word nigger.

wrong nigger, i live near german border

When will the Mi A3 come out?

phone with snapdragon 855 smaller than 6 inches, does a phone like that exist?

Mofi fabric case

S10e

only in america

it has the same bands as the euro version, you lazy faggot

You can get the SD855 S10e off eBay or eGlobal Central among other online stores, just search for G9700 (model number for HK/China S10e with SD855 and unlockable bootloader)

its not the bands you cheesenigger, murica has sd855 while europe has gayxynos

No problem. A few of mine have had that issue.

oh yes it is totally forbidden to buy one in america and use it in europe

reminder you still have simlocks

I need to get a cheap smartphone with a good camera. I was looking at getting a Moto G6 XT1925-2 as it has good reviews for power, camera, and battery life for the price.
What's your opinion? I am in the North American market

It's shit, get a Redmi Note 7

Thank you! I'm definitely going for the Mi Mix 3. I love the sliding camera.

Im definetively into custom roms. I was into iPhone jailbreaking way back when I got my very own iphone 3gs. Which is the vest value chinkphone that supports US bands available as of now? 400$ is my maximum budget

Good music player that isn't foobar or poweramp?

Xperia 1 is already out in Europe and yet we have no reviews. Wtf, bros??? How is nipphone?

Make sure you get a "Global version" Mi Mix 3 for the best band support:

>Which is the vest value chinkphone that supports US bands available as of now?
Xiaomi Mi Mix 2s/3, Mi8/9

I'm thinking of getting a dumbphone to use as a sandbox for my "legitimate" SIM card. Should I go for a refurbished Nokia 3310 or the 2017 version? Or does /dumbphonegeneral/ have other preferences?

Forgot pic.

Yup, that's the global version. Just check the model number on the box matches when you get it, there's been a few cases where the Amazon seller ships the Chinese version even though the item description says it's the Global version.

does there exist a music player for android, which would allow the device's cpu to enter the deep sleep state?
would that even be theoretically possible?

Do any of you guys actually have the K20 yet?

F1 Play has 5150mAH battery

Is there an app like Samsung's game tuner but for other brands that could help me lock the frame rate of my games?

What should someone who wants a big screen and good battery life buy?
