lmfao i actually own this phone cause I'm a webdevfag and own tons of shit phones for testing.

for 10 bucks its fucking great desu. but i get that phones are a status symbol. it would be like if you could buy a car for $300 with a top speed of 70mph and good gas mileage. its the obvious economic choice but you'll get made fun of by yuppies.

Android is for people who appreciate choice.

Yes, $10 Android phones are available today. In fact, much better Android phones were available a few days ago for the same price, seen here:
http://slickdeals.net/f/8308847-motorola-moto-e-4g-4-5-verizon-prepaid-no-contract-smartphone-10-free-shipping?src=SiteSearchV2

The fact of the matter is that an unthinkably huge number of permutations of hardware run Android, and it allows its users an amount of choice never before experienced in the world of cellular telephones. Users who want to spend only $10 can purchase the LG Sunrise or Moto E on sale, Users who wish to spend $90 can purchase the Moto E off-sale, or users that want to spend $170 can purchase the Moto G, users who wish to spend more than that have more options than I could hope to list here.

So you're right, Android is for poorfags, and middleclassfags and richfags, and people who wish to choose their own hardware, and people who don't consider themselves smartphone enthusiasts and everybody in between.

Android is inclusive, it accommodates, and it abides. And regardless of your social status, you stand to gain a lot from it.

This runs 4.4 vs mine that ran 4.1. It even holds more battery and has better specs. Fuck off reviewers I used worse hardware than that up until 8 months ago. Minus the shitty screen and the camera, this phone is better than what I had. This reviewer is so full of shit

This, the phone kind of reminds me of pic related. People trash it and laugh until their bloodshot about 'bad' it is, but it's relative though isn't it?

This car will get you and your family from A to B and will do so for a very low price, that phone will make phone calls and keep you updated on Facebook for an extremely low price.

For only 10 dollars, that thing will be shit at almost all of these. Still, smartphones becomming so cheap is great. While I don't mind spending 600-700 bucks on a new phone ever 1 or 2 years, it is no longer necessary to spend that amount on a phone anymore.

It's got similar specs except for a 720p screen instead of 540p, a better camera and a removable battery. I paid $150 for it.

The best thing about going for android is the variety in choice. You can get a shitty 10 dollar phone which by the way is still functional for what most iFags need anyway, but you can get high end flagships or higher end luxury models or mid rangers all with OS tweaks and UI idiosyncrasies which fit your individual needs, you can even get android phones which actually mimic iOS for a fraction of the price of an iPhone. There is no reason to sell your soul to Apple. Also Samsung doesn't count as a good example of an android brand.

Android has both phones in the $10 range and the ~$1000 range. Imagine that, an operating system designed to run on more than just a single locked down phone.

>When will you buy an iPhone
When iPhones are shipped with the root account unlocked, or able to be unlocked without exploiting a security vulnerability, and the ability to run any unsigned application regardless of whether Apple approves of it. I also require the OS to have a fully functional file system, and to have a file manager built into the OS.

Put simply, until iOS has at least as much functionality as Cyanogenmod, I'm not going to use it. If I am given an iPhone or iPad for free, I will either sell it, or use it as a glorified paperweight. If I am given an iPad, I might turn it into a clipboard.

You guys know the Verizon moto E that could still be used on GSM networks was on sale on best buy a few days ago for $10 right?

I'm using it as a backup phone.

Specs seldom result in acceptable performance.
Sure, specs are a tangible measure that you can compare across offerings but I'd take my friend's Mercedes against a similarly specced Chev.

Read the article, it was on sale. Ordinary price between $40-60, also keep in mind this is *before* sales tax, their version of VAT, which we include in the price.

That piece of shit having an ordinary price between $40 and $60 is retarded because there are real $10 MSRP Android phones now with the same 480x320 3.5 inch form factor.

And when they go on sale they cost $1.

Come to think of it I once paid $70 for a 3.5 inch 480x320 Android phone. It was in 2010, and I loved that little Android 2.2 bastard.

I could live like that but I don't.
I could probably make a thread about this actually... I make considerably little at 40 hrs a week and live like I have much more money than I do. Living on my own soon too and I think I am going to start living like a poorfag. It almost seems fun. Like I appreciate all my devices more and find creative ways to turn nothing into a hell of a lot of something rather than buying a $20 service 'cuz I can afford it duh'
Same goes for this phone. I like a ten dollar phone. My first device was a $ 100 craig tablet from rite aid and I had to hide it from my father because he literally took all my electronics. "its not sports go play outside"

Holy shiiit, I have the same phone. I picked it up from a garage sale a little while back. I rooted the fucker and activated it with Ting, It's a great backup phone. I love how sturdy it feels.

This thing is a marvel. $10? Amazing.

You're a fucking idiot if you don't think that's impressive. Regardless of whether you suck Apple's cock or take it up the ass from Google, or get spit roast by both.

Thing about it, how the fuck did LG make it that cheap? That's much more impressive than modern "flagships" which are just unnoticeable, incremental spec improvements, a couple gimmick feature and increasing cost year over year.

I wouldn't use one, but it still blows my mind.

since you own this, how is the music player?

need a cheap mp3 player for the gym without hauling around my phablet, and this might actually be cheaper than what i was planning (sansa clip+ with rockbox)

It's pretty much an mp3 player that can make calls, take pictures and browse the web.

Apple iShits don't even have a filesystem or expandable storage.
It's not for the rich, s6 edge costs more and looks nicer, it's for the idiots who don't know any better.

Smart people buy android or Microsoft phones. Poorfags buy iPhones because they want to look less poor than they actually are.

>>51749462
Lg g3, a far better phone than your piece of shit.

I bet you're stuck on the 16gb model too.
