>>53160079
Even worse, it doesn't have a micro sd slot.

You can still store tons of that on 128gb, and to buy a comparable phone with micro SD you're going to be spending more. Add in the 256gb micro SD and why the fuck spend so much money?

The S7 has built in upvote/downvote for choosing whether to have an app drawer, which is then sent to Samsung for botnet info.

Literally a Reddit phone.

Looks gud aside from the fingerprint meme and the lack of a mSD slot.

128gb internal storage is enough unless you're some autist watching cartoons though.
>>
>>53160058
>>53160274
>>53160287
>>53159609
They're using UFS 2.0 storage

aka 6x faster than lesser eMMC storage that other phones have, it's like comparing SSDs to SSHDs. The downside is that the controller can't handle the two different types of storage, this and mSD cards.

Of course, like all other xiaomi components, it's all Samsung hand-me-downs stuff, that's why the S7 has mSD slots despite also having UFS 2.0 inside, albeit a newer version of it.
>>
>>53160491
Because with a phone with specs that good, you're gonna want to store a fuckton of data on it.

>>53160699

That's not the only thing a microsd card can be used for wise-ass.

>needing that much on a 5 inch screen

Even YIFY rips will look good on a screen that size
>>
>>53160971
Not really, 1080p yify rips look okay-ish on phones with 720p screens. On 1080p phone screens you can easily see artifacts and massive color banding. It's not an enjoyable experience.

I don't feel comfortable handing a password that i can't change for the rest of my life.
Also you're forced to use a PIN if you encrypt your phone anyway, the only benefit would be like saving a second or less when unlocking the phone.

>>53160967
I hate the fact that a phone can be super good, but because it doesn't have a fingerprint scanner, it's ancient to cosmopolitan fashionistas.
Absolutely nothing wrong with swipe-to-unlock.
And there are much more important things in a phone than meme-tier shit:

1080p screen MAX (once PPI is over 330 whatever, who the fuck cares?)
Replaceable battery (or one that's over 3000mhanbz so it can last)
MicroSD
Great camera
Good weight in hand
Not too thin
Aesthetically pleasing

The only meme-tier thing I'd like is USB-C, because I think it's important to finally have an interchangeable plug for charging. Shit's annoying when you're about to sleep, and the last thing you forget to do is charge your device so you have to fumble incessantly to plug it in.

Don't care about fast-charging either. Sounds nice on paper, but unless I'm not up to speed on battery technology, doesn't faster charging decrease battery life a hell of a lot more?
I'd get rid of the convenience over worrying that my baby is dying faster.

Common sense says you don't save your unalterable biometric data on internet connected devices.

128 gb is enough for me to be honest.

>>53162656
In 2015 I would have agreed with you. We're in 2016 though.
>>
>>53161784
But I'm the one arguing against fingerprint scanners.
Pointless technology to drive up the price.
And just because a phone doesn't have one doesn't (or shouldn't) automatically make a phone shitty.
It's like the comments on Amazon for the Z5. People giving the device 1-star simply because it didn't have a fingerprint scanner while the overseas models did.
These shouldn't be the people dictating what makes a cellphone good.

As are you. But in 2016, 128GB of storage is not enough for people now, autistic or not.

>You can still store tons of that on 128gb
Urusei Yatsuta(Just main series, not movies and OVAs) is 270GB if you use the BD rips.

You'd need a 256GB MSD card and 64GB NAND to hold it.

It is subsidized by putting borderline malware from CleanMaster deeply integrated into the ROM. See the included "RAM cleaner" which includes CM code and still works after disabling all CM apps. The amount of bloatware on that phone makes Samsung phones look good.

>>53159392
Only for the Chinese release. If they are releasing this in the US they will make a version with US centric bands.

This looks like the phone to beat, especially since you get 128GB and 4GB RAM for $400. I just hope it includes the proper bands for my carrier in the US version.

No you don't kiddo, if you did you wouldn't have all those cartoons on you're smart phone.
