Motorola Moto G7 Power, Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 or pixel 3a? Also, why you think one phone is better than the others would be helpful in my decision making. Currently leaning towards the Xiaomi based on the specs. Other recs welcome, thanks.
For how long should I charge my new phone? Is it true that it should be 6+ hours?
Camden Perez
pixel is the best but redmeme is the best value
Gabriel Davis
Redmi Note 7, by far the best value.
Leo Edwards
Oh, more info. >country USA >carrier ATT >wanted features Nice screen, good camera, fast, good battery life. Anything nice, really. My last phone was some old shit from half a decade ago, so I am sure any upgrade will please me if I am honest. >budget $300-$450. Can stretch it a little, but this is my comfort zone. >size As long at it isn't some ridiculous brick I am not too concerned about size. A big screen would be nice.
Parker Richardson
>720p Better battery life, performance >SD632 B-B-BUT HIGHER IS BETTER!11 >microUSB Cheaper, more popular, robust >only 40€ That's like a 1/3 of Redmi Note

Pls halp lads. Which replacement battery should I get for my Moto X Play? Ordering from this site which has very good rating on Trustpilot, 92% Excellent, so as a vendor they can be trusted at least
Two options >'OEM' version >their own version I don't care about the price
Here's what I'm thinking >'OEM' version They obviously sourced it from some place in Shenzhen, because I see ones just like it on AliExpress. However, there seem to be two 'OEM' designs when you do an image search. So is it really the official one, or is it just a widespread copy? I'm thinking this is the danger with trusting an 'OEM' one. It could be a fake, hence might be unsafe. Or it could be used, just taken from an old phone and sold to this website >dear fren, pls trust Comes with a 6 month warranty.
>their own version Listing says >Here at The Replace Base we know good batteries from bad: with some models, it's hard to find a reliable, low cost economical battery so we've teamed up with a leading OEM to bring you what we think is the best battery for your device. >All of our batteries are CE safety tested and come from responsible, certified manufacturers.They're made using high grade materials to give you a long, stable and sustainable performance. >Although our rated capacity may show a little lower then your original battery the expected life is about the same, we always state the real world rated capacity of the battery, not the typical capacity that most manufacturers refer to, this means on paper ours may looks lower capacity but in real life performance we will match or be an indiscernible difference >We are so confident that your battery will live up to expectations that we will replace or refund any battery that doesn't match the performance expected, no quibble. I'm leaning towards this one because if they commissioned it to be made, specifically to be sold in a western market, with own company branding, it might be made to safer standards? And 12 month warranty.
Owned a Z1 and a Z3 Compact so not exactly what you're looking for. Personally I avoided the Z5 because of the Snapdragon 810. Notoriously hot and inefficient. You might be better off with the Z3 or the X Compact.
Gavin Wilson
No, someone bullshitted you, that shit is completely unnecessary
Gabriel Roberts
>No, someone bullshitted you, that shit is completely unnecessary So just until it reaches 100%?
Manufacturers nowadays recommend not letting the phone discharge itself to the point where it's lower than 20%
Elijah Hill
K20 pro global version when??
William Wright
Why do you think pixel is better than the redmeme?
David Thompson
Daily reminder to stop buying chink shit, this includes any phone made in China like: Apple Huawei and Honor Xiaomi and One Plus Lenovo and Motorola Oppo and ZTE.
Buy phones made outside China, like Taiwan, South Korea and Japan, this phones don't include backdoors from the People's Republic of China. Examples: Sony(Japan) Asus(Taiwan) Samsung(SK) LG(SK) Google(SK)
I had battery autism and would top up whenever I could all the time. My phone is now down to 70% f its original capacity. From now on, unless I know I have a very long day e.g. I'm travelling, or some intense usage ahead of me where I know I won't have the chance to charge, I'm only gonna charge to 80%. I don't know about how low to avoid.
Joshua Harris
Samsung Galaxy S10e >Previous phone was a note 9 >very happy with the phone >performed smoothly all day, amazing battery >Thought it might be my standard for a few years >tied of carrying the size in addition to my work iPhone >reaching across the screen all the time became annoying >want small tiny phone now >decide on S10e because it's less expensive and wasn't planning on the expense. >surprised how responsive it is, never had a frustrating moment of lag >disappointed the iris scanner isn't a feature >fingerprint reader on power button is amazing however >Unlocks without fidgeting with phone >just won't keep my crimes on my phone anymore >phone camera is amazing compared to Note 9 >never have to shift the phone to reach across the screen >front camera notch doesn't impact video playback since the screen is wider than 16:9 >it's actually pretty cool, and anyone who wants a pop out front camera is a dummy dumb dumb >screen is so large that I don't feel like I'm missing anything from the note 9 >dont even miss the curved edges, seemed like a gimmick more than anything anyway. >Samsung Pay doesn't work on my unlocked global version, this is the only disappointing issue but may be possible to solve.
From what I can tell about battery autism (and almost no research) is, keep it between 45% and 75% but I was worried if just charging in general kills the battery.
I only keep it at that range if I know I'm not going out too long or I'm just sitting at my desk all day, no reason to wear out the battery if I'm not doing shit that requires it.
Benjamin Diaz
>Want a new phone >Remember why i haven't upgraded from my S5 Modern phones are absolute trash, lol i see you people arguing about maximizing battery life, when i can just throw away my shitty battery and insert a new one. I honestly haven't closed my phone other than to swap batteries in a year.
Charles Clark
I just dropped my Redmi Note 5 on the street a couple hours ago, and despite having the provided case on it the screen is cracked all over. I've had this phone since December.
How much does screen repair tend to cost and is it worth it? I was looking at getting a Moto G anyway since I can more easily root that, but not so soon. I'm broke now. I'm on holiday and I don't know what the first course of action is. Get a screen protector to stop the cracks from getting worse?
Any help appreciated.
Adrian Reed
will RN7 dropped price by december? or should I wait for RN8?
Nicholas Barnes
Is android 9 not coming to the Huawei Mate SE?
Jace Wood
Get the bloody XZ1c
Nathan Young
And he can't do shit with my data so I don't care. You act like Google phones and iPhones and the like don't harvest data either.
Brandon Lee
Will the note 10 have a headphone jack?
Cooper Morgan
lol no, it's 100% confirmed it won't. Why would you consider that phone anyway, it'll be hideously overpriced.
Colton Murphy
Big screen. Good hardware. Good camera. Centered hole.
John Jackson
Anyone? Is the pro version worth the extra dosh or should I just get the normal one?
Redpill me on phone cases. There are so many varieties I don't know which one is the best. Current phone is a redmi note 7 by the way if that helps.
Ryan Phillips
I'd go for it, it has a better SoC and camera. Just be aware there's no global version of it
Jack Peterson
I've owned two. Had the first one replaced under warranty within a year because the micro-USB port melted while I had it charging overnight. The second one I owned for several years and loved it. More processing power than I required and in a compact package. Recently I broke the screen for the second time, had it replaced and was about to replace the battery but now it won't charge so it's time for something new. I'll probably buy an XZ1C which is sadly larger than the Z5C, which was already larger than ideal, the XZ2C is just ridiculous.
Carson Lee
save 800€ and get the Redmi Note 7 instead (which has all those things too, plus a headphone jack)
Jaxon Mitchell
My V20 cracked and its headphone jack is busted. I'm ready to get a new phone, I'm willing to spend up to 500 but I'd much rather prefer something cheaper.
I'm looking for something with
>a good camera > headphone jack >long lasting bartery
Landon Anderson
>Just be aware there's no global version of it Newbie question but can you elaborate what this means?
The global versions usually support more bands so the phone works with your carrier. If you're in the US then it won't pick 4G. Check kimovil to see if it support the bands needed for your country
Dominic Collins
Hopefully the Razer Phone 3 adds these features. If it comes out at all.
He already missed out on the Prime Day deal, it's no longer $400
Andrew Anderson
>Nice screen, good camera Get the 3a and be done with it. XL if you want to splurge on a bigger screen and battery.
Easton Lewis
Those are good rationales, and I would have a hard time making a choice as well. At the end of the day phone batteries are something I sleep better knowing I spent a little bit more on.
Anthony Morgan
Is the Mi A1 recommended for a fairly recent Lineage supported phone?
Forgot to say cheap as well. Fairly recent, Lineage supported, cheap phone.
Cooper Watson
My LG v30 arrived today, great phone have been using it all day. Went to shopping with it today and had the phone in my right pocket, was looking at a can of tomatoes and one of the tins started rolling, fell and bit the phone in my pocket with it's edge cracking the top half part. Was extremely sad, but im over it now since everything is fully functional and i can order a replacement for 10 dollars
Sebastian Long
Forgot to mention it hit the back and not then front screen
Luke Morales
I bought a KuGi case. Works well and adds a lot of grip. But it makes the phone really thick.
Julian Collins
A simple TPU case with textured sides for grip has always been good enough for me
Kevin Carter
I got my Redmi Note 7 yesterday. I've installed Gcam. Anything else?
And where's a good source for wallpapers for this aspect ratio?
Lincoln Ward
what's objectively the best android around $300
Kayden Harris
this guy's got the right idea, any textured TPU case is OBJECTIVELY the best kind of phone case. >good grip in both hands and on other objects, doesn't stick too much like silicon >decent protection
i've always liked the fake carbon fiber ones
Juan Davis
it's still $400 on their website
Brandon Johnson
it's not perfect, but this moto g7 power is sick. I'm not going back to a tiny battery phone.
Michael Hughes
Based Iochad, good luck with your battery Speculation is September based on Xiaomi registering stuff 3aXL if you can't get Xiaomi locally Not a landscape typer, but it looks nice and slim Ring is more secure and less hand strain for big heavy phones, especially when on a bus. It doubling as a stand is also pretty handy. Not familiar with popouts. Mi 9T
Parker Wright
>Anything else? Get a custom ROM installed as well. Preferably with microG.
Elijah Taylor
decent rom for my redmeme? don't like miui
Sebastian Fisher
i was thinking about getting a refurbished iphone 8 plus 64gb just to have both an apple and android phone on the sides.
Thoughts?
Mason Morris
I know, this is not the stupid question thread, but however: Would one still be able to use Google Pay via NFC in shops if he is running a custom ROM (Lineage to be specific) on his phone?
Thanks for any answers, kind Anons.
Nicholas Garcia
No lol
Caleb Williams
If you want two phones you might as well mix it up, so go nuts.
Juan Roberts
why have 2 phones?
Julian Bailey
just alternate when i get bored of one. Guess mixing it up...plus an iphone 8 plus is only about 480 dollars used but i needed honest opinions on my idea.
Gavin Lewis
alright fair enough. what are you thinking for an android?
Josiah Bailey
i already own a s10 plus
Luke Evans
>razor phone looks great, especially the based 16:9 screen >read some more on it >battery is the worst part of the phone it is absolute shit, no headphone jack, only the RP1 has a notification led on the front Are there any other good 16:9 options?
William Watson
How does one get bored of phones? You have the latest android flagship and you want to buy an old iShit to complement it? It won't do you any good whatsoever.
