What smartphone do you have currently, /g/?
What do you think of it?
its ok
B-be gentle, anon-kun
Xperia Z Ultra, camera sucks ass but otherwise I don't have a reason to upgrade, might get myself an S6 later this year or early next year
Sony xperia Z5, have it for 2 months now and the touchscreen has died 2 times already.
Als it's too big.
Liked my z3c better. Too bad it had and incident lately.

What made you guys choose Sony phones? I'm not very familiar with their offerings
>>53689848
Moto /g/ here. I like it. Feels nice in the hand, no huge flaws from what I can tell. Battery lasts all day. Only problem is that it doesn't have a notification LED.
>>53690144
I chose the z3c for its high end hardware in a small format. Also amazing battery life.
After it died I just stayed with Sony
>>53690144
I have big hands (inb4 >for you) and it's pretty much the only xboxhueg phone with semi good specs
Galaxy S6
Great phone, battery is SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
T-Mobile Note 4. Got it for cheap from a friend about 6 months ago.
My personal experience with this phone is pretty good but I wish the headphone output was a tad louder, I also wish it could do RAW or Long exposures, and I wish there was more stable Cyanogenmod for it, stuck on Touchwiz-based crap because of that.
Another thing is I see no point in the phones from 2015 or early 2016, they really don't seem to be an upgrade from this at all. SoCs are a bit faster, Screens are the same res, Cameras are a little better in low light, same amount of RAM... but the worst part is the non-removable battery and no MicroSD card fad everyone is doing... and it really upsets me that Samsung is getting rid of useful features like IR blasters and HDMI out (MHL) on their new phones.
Also yes i need to put a new screen protector on this thing!
Free from work. I'm all Apple swagged out through them (5k iMac, rMBP, iPad Pro, stainless watch).
The workflow if you have all their products is neat but it's very expensive to buy in.
Sony Xperia Z5 Premium Chrome + tempered glass front and back + non sanded aluminum bumper. Both of them from devilcase. Can't complain. The best phone I've had so far. Everyone who sees it mirin it
>>53690210
what did you use to get that effect where it is blurry and has the 3d looking shit in your photo?
6p
now that cheap replacement screens and the back piece are available i feel p comfy with it. bought a new back so i can straigten this back out and i'll be fucking psyched
>>53690253
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bokeh
6P. Really like it. Could use an SD card slot for the fuck of it though, I'd load it with ISOs for DriveDroid
>>53690265
Are there some QC problems with the 6P?
>>53690461
yeah. my screen had smudges in the oil phobic layer that you could never get rid of. until i dropped it from ~15 inches and fully broke it
the replacement screens are only like $50 now, bet they'll just keep dropping
>>53690511
I'm sure they will, seems to happen with every phone cycle. It was crazy how much Moto X screens were when they first came out.
>>53689848

Iphone 6s Plus
It's fine. I got it because it was cheaper than all comparable android phones with Sprint's iphone forever plan.
I only need it for youtube, podcasts and web browsing.
Xperia Z1 Compact (White because you can't see the fingerprints easily), pretty good with that metal body and infinite battery life.
Meizu M2 Note spent $120 on the phone plus a 64 gb chink SD card, pretty good value desu senpai
>>53691984
I should probably add what I think of the phone, decent 5.5in 1080p igzo screen,the camera is alright it does slowmo vid good battery life, it has some really big flaws like dogshit SoC+gpu pretty shit nic no nfc and a locked bootloader, but it werks as a shitposting device
s7 edge. pretty legit senpai.

>>53692144
The chinks said they gonna release the bootloader and kernel source when the update to flyme5 reaches the stable channel, as for the nfc it's not that big of a deal
What's the best Chinkphone I can get that'll actually work in America? Budget of $200-$250.
Used phones from Swappa would be good too.
Moto x 2014
Got it at the beggining of the year for less than 200€, only downsides are the poor storage and battrry life otherwise it's pretty damn good.
But now I want to switch to iphone se :(
Moto G 2014
It works. Sometime it stutters when recording video. the microphone crackes on the phone. Apps open slowly sometimes.
I paid $80 for it so I don't really care. it's better than many "budget phones" and it got the new OTA update.
>>53692188
Xiaomi or Meizu are both good bets you can get a pretty good phone for that cash
Original galaxy note running Android M. Four years old now. It's quite slow, the camera could be better, but it's still doing the job.
2015 has been a shit year for Android phones thanks to Lollipop and the SD810. Looking forward to this one.
>>53690011
What network & where? I'm on AT&T in the US and considering the Oneplus X. I'm pretty turned off by the lack of LTE support in the US, though, so I'm not sure if it's something I still want to buy. I prefer it over the Oneplus 2 - the X has removable storage, OLED screen, better battery, no physical buttons, etc.
I don't game, I doubt I'll get into gaming, so that wouldn't bother me. I'm mainly concerned about having a usable Android device with a decent screen (OLED, 400+ PPI) and with at least 120fps video.
For the price, that phone seems super tempting. There might not even be a better alternative. They just really fucked us in the US by providing next to no LTE support.
>>53692268
I miss mine, it no longer accepted any SIM card.
>>53690050
what is wrong with nexus4
>>53690210
I hate mine. Even with no tabs open on startup it only has 700mb of ram to spare and somehow the apps use several times more resources than they do on tablets I use. 500 fucking my on Firefox which has 4 tabs open is fucking ridiculous.
Might have to root it and use a micro sd as a secondary source of ram like I did with my old tablet.
Someone please convince me that the note 4 would still work and still be the best phone overall in the next 4 years
Moto X 2014, I don't like it.
Build quality is ok, but the battery is tiny and the screen way too big.
Moto x Play <3
Moto X Play
Got it because at that moment it was on sale, and of that huge battery.
Only problem i have is the camera, focus is messed up, you need to take a couple of shots to get it right.

Got a galaxy S6 edge. Coming from S2. It's amazing. I have no problems with the battery. And gear vr is awesome too.
Blackberry Q10
perfect.
I bought an xperia e1 for $17 last month.
Nuked half the apps, rooted it and disabled the volume limitation in the config files.
I use it to listen to music and call people with, that's it.
It's my first smartphone and the best phone I've ever owned desu.
The battery life is a bit shit, though, that's my only gripe with it.
I don't get this whole xpensive phone meme.

>>53694704
Get the z2, that is literally all you need, and it will be cheap. I have a z3 and I got it for 450 cuck bucks (CAD) because it is a more refined version of the z2. Battery life is great in the z2.

have the moto g 3 too, and i like the design especially that part with the moto logo
for the rest, i feel very happy with it
>>53694877
Phablets are too bulky in your hand, plus getting a cellphone that actually has decent battery life (using gsm arena battery test as a guide) get's you plenty of options for phones that can last up to 2 days under moderate use.

>What do you think of it?
It's kind of bad now, but I don't have a reason to upgrade.
I used to have a Moto G (1st gen), which was pretty good at the beginning, but after a few months of use it became a slow fcker. I bought it when it was released in Brazil.
But like you must be wondering, I'm brazilian and get robbed a few weeks ago. Now, I ordered a LG G3 online, which I must receive this monday...
Smartphones are pretty expensive over here, so this was like the best option to me... It's relatively powerful and cheap. The other option was Zenfone 2, which I know it is faster but has a worse camera.
>>53693191

>not getting your upper middle class friend buy them abroad for you
Viado
Doogee F5. It was about €150
http://www.doogeemobile.com/doogee-f5.html for the specs.
I want sure what to get, so I figured I'd try something cheap. It's pretty nice for the price, the battery is mediocre and the build quality is better than you'd expect from a China phone (but by no means impressive).
I'd like my next phone to have some form of video out and if it's implemented in mhl or lightning kind of way, I'd like a second USB port. Preferably a phone I can put CM on.
The Note 4.
I don't like it. It has too many features that I never use. But I get bitched at every time I talk about downgrading. People are always obsessed about the biggest and best features, despite the fact those features can be absolutely pointless.
>>53689848
Galaxy Note 5
It's pretty good, it's amazingly fast with touchwiz and not that hard to root
Only problem is that the custom ROM support is shitty so I might not ever see this update past Android N
>What smartphone do you have currently, /g/?
Yotaphone 2
>What do you think of it?
It's an awesome idea executed pretty decently. I can see any new notification at a glance and reply to messages from the e-ink screen. Set any wallpaper and it won't consumme extra battery. I can use normal android on e-ink too.
It's a shame it has not got a big hype when its surely a revolutionary concept in the smartphone industry. Sadly now is all about marketing and resolution and cpu pissing contest, not innovation.
>>53698338
Is this the two sided phone thing?
>>53698333
Well yeah, most consumers have a locked bootloader. Fucking american carriers.
>>53698369
Yes on front it's an amoled 5inch 1080p screen and on the back is an e-ink 960x540 4.7inch matte screen.
>>53698520
So can you xxxclusively use the back screen and get >9000 hrs of screen on time?
>>53698534
In theory yes, never tryed it yet, till now I'm using more the normal screen and have the e-ink for notifications and reading books. Got it only who weeks ago.
Galaxy S6. Good, but no expandable memory sucks. I had the Nexus 5 previously so I'm used to it, but I really want to go back to having all my music stored locally so I'm probably going to get the S7.
Luckily work gives us phone discounts so I haven't actually paid for one in years.
lg g2. got it for 100 canuck bucks
pretty good phone, currently overclocked at 2.5ghz (been thinking of upping the clock to 2.8ghz.)
>>53694800
How ling does the battery last? My s7 (no edge) lasted 11hrs of fairly intensive use before getting to power save mode (20%)
>>53691087
Battery life is pretty decent I guess. I went from a flip phone to it though, so the life is horrible compared. I'll charge it and usually get a couple of days before I have to charge again. I'm quite a light user though, idles during the day unless I need maps for work, and listen to music for an hour or so at night.
>>53689848
Nexus 5 - Had since release day, exceptional and flawless up until recently where I have been having trouble. It did survive a huge car crash with only a few chips, and it had flew out of my hands, out the front window (I was in the back seat) and about 20 foot down the road.
Blackberry Priv should be arriving next week.
It's hardly a smartphone, but I have a SH-03E right now. Once AT&T kills 2G I don't know what I'll move to.
>>53689848
lg v10, great phone does everything i need of it. Seems to lag a little when playing games though.
Still have my iPhone 5s. Been wanting to get away from Apple for a while now, but phones just keep getting bigger and bigger and my favorite thing about the 5s is its size.
Samsung GT-E1050. Got it around five years ago for €10, which included a prepaid card with €5 credit on it. No problems with it, battery still lasts over a week.
I dare you to find a better value for money phone.
>>53696913
I'm using an LG G3. It's a great phone, M will make it even better when we finally get it, and I see no reason to upgrade for at least another year
LG G Flex 2. LG fucked it up with no updates and a locked bootloader.
>>53694877
Zero lemon....
>>53689848
LG G4. Overkill phone for what I need in terms of specs and features and I sorta regret not going for the Z3 or Z5 when they came out because they look more aesthetically pleasing in my opinion.
Not a bad phone by any means.

how's the leather holding up? the leather on the old Moto X aged really nicely with normal use, haven't seen any pics of the G4s though

I really disliked having leather on my phone so I got the Silver Grey plastic back which is always covered by a Slim case anyway.
I hear it holds up fine for most people though.

You get a lot of freedom with nexus phones, ie rooting, custom roms. The PRIV isn't likely to see any of those due to its security. Seems like it may be a rough transition. Does that bother you?
Nokia 500, love it.
>>53700091
rooting/custom roms becomes less relevant every year for me personally. I've been in it since the G1 and my current phone has been stock since purchase

>still not on LP
I've had a Lumia 640XL for about 6 months now, not really enjoying it as much as I'd hoped.
The one positive thing I can say for it is that I hardly ever have to charge the thing. I don't know if that's due to lack of use (I really can't find any useful apps, aside from Checkers and Go, maybe), or because of a low power draw, but I charge it maybe twice a week, and I'm not using any special power-saving apps.
Other than that one big pro, I can't say much for the thing. The internet browsers on it are severely lacking. I use UCBrowser the majority of the time, but the constant ads bug the heck out of me (with no paid option). I don't mind paying for a browser, but refuse to buy multiple browsers just to test whether or not I'll like them, and with the limited number of reviews, it's hard to download something based on a high rating.
The maps feature is absolutely dogshit. If you rely on public transportation (living in the bay or LA) you should not buy this phone. The routes it tells you to take will often times be wrong and send you to the wrong place. Not only that, but you have to jump through multiple hoops just to get to the public-transportation options. It's nothing like Google Maps on Android devices.
The Uber app must rely on the Maps app for some features, as it will often times refuse to load, or won't confirm that I've requested a driver, only to send me a text minutes after trying to order a ride that my driver is on the way. This has caused me to avoid the Uber app altogether, as those $5.00 cancellation fees can add up quickly.
The number of useful apps on the store is not only low, but they're dwindling. If you manage to find a nice and useful app, it will probably lose support within months. I'm not sure why developers are doing this, but it's a frustrating trend and doesn't seem to be improving.
I wanted a basic smartphone that had maps for public transport. The only feature I really cared about doesn't work. This phone was a mistake.

LG G4
It's not bad, but it just feels like overkill for what I need. I don't really do anything on it I couldn't do on my old Galaxy Nexus.
In fact, I was I was thinking about selling it and downgrading to a note 3 (since it's rootable on Verizon, has a bigger screen and that fancy stylus, and I could use the excess dosh from selling the g4 to get one of those kickass 10,000 mah batteries). I think the only thing I'd really miss is the G4's god-tier camera. Is this a stupid idea?
>>53689848
Have a Note 4 pretty based smartphone and future proof, use it for all kinds of stuff.
But as with smartphones seems pretty limited, if it had something like Microsoft Continuum and was a Windows phone with as much software support as android it would be the best thing for using with a desktop PC I would have everything.

Galaxy S6. Wish I'd gotten an LG G4, and now I'm just biding my time until the new Moto X comes out because I loved my X2 before the display shattered. At least the camera's nice.
Blu Life One X (2016 edition)
The triband GS3 I had before it did the job fine for me so my standards were pretty damn low. For my needs, this thing is great. Doesn't lag at all, firmware is very close to stock (what little stuff that could be considered bloat on it uninstalled without any problem), and the screen looks fantastic.
And I want to replace it. I thought I'd like something with a significantly larger screen than the S3, but that's not the case; this phone is awkward to handle, and I pretty much never do anything on it that really benefits from such a large screen. (the S3 was fine for web browsing and the few games I play.) Thinking about getting an S4 or one of the Xperia compact phones.
iPhone 5S. I got it in fucking August 2014, my first smartphone.

The led flash for alerts is not the same as the led light on most android phones. The ones on android flash on regular intervals so you never have to wake it up to see if you have a notification. Also, there is a 4chan client, but it's shit, but apparently there's a better one if you jailbreak but fuck that shit
Moto E 2015. Got it for only $10, but I plan on getting the s7 edge soon
iphone 5S
eh.
>>53689848
Lenovo K3
only complaint is that you cant put it on silent.
I dont fucking know.
I have a Moto E 2015
To be fair I'm only really using it as a replacement after I grew too frustrated with my Lumia 928.
I like it alot. Even for a low end phone I'm having less hiccups than the 928, but whether or not that's because of slightly better specs or apps actually updating so they work is yet to be determined.
Moto e 2015
Battery life is great, does everything i want it to do, plays emulators well. I'll upgrade when it gets left behind in updates.
Help me /g/, my old phone died and I must buy a new one.
I want the one with the most based camera and battery possible.
Options are Nexus 6p, iPhone 6s Plus, and Microsoft Lumia XL 950
>>53708725
Definitively the Microsoft Lumia XL 950. Best phone ever.
Note 4. I loves it. Waiting to see what's up with the Note 6, otherwise idk what I'll be upgrading to next.
LG v10. Love it so far
>>53690210
cm13 for the international note 4 is pretty stable tbqh. The only issue I've run into is the dreaded mobile radio active bug from android 5.x

Japan, actually. Yotaphone isn't available in Japan, so I'm pretty sure it won't have the Japan-only certification. major carriers actually check if you bring your own device, and refuse service.
I'm researching now if I could just dodge the major carriers and use a prepaid sim instead.
I understand some international phones have it, but not all. I think it mostly depends on if the same model is sold in both Japan and America/Europe.
Nexus 5 with a cracked screen still deciding between getting it fixed and buying a new 5x or 6p
>>53708740
Thanks anon.
lots of people using Moto G, me included
I use a 1st gen Moto G and have no problem at all.
thinking about changing, can any one suggest a good cheap phone to consider ?
(aside of Moto G 3rd)
i have a generic cricket smartphone running jelly bean
it was like $30
survived two trips across country and being partially covered in water
Went from Palm Centro > HTC HD2 > Nexus 4
Battery life is bad but I have a wireless charging battery pack so it doesn't really matter at all
JUDGE MY PHONE HISTORY /g/
I miss having a new Android phone all the time but I'm so fucking plugged into iMessage.
Lumia 720. Not digging Windows. Probably will go back to android. Actually, I don't really have much use for a smartphone, so I'll probably just go back to my Samsung flip phone.
>>53709247
Isn't iMessage just Apple's SMS?
Lg g2 running Cyanogen mod really like it, battery life is about 3 days or more for me, i dont use social media so i think that helps a lot to not waste it.
>>53709437
How is battery life in windows phones btw? ive been thinking of acquiring one for a long time
>>53709479
I don't really use it enough to really gauge how good/bad it is. It lasts for about 4-5 days before dropping to 10%.
The LG Lucky. It was $20. I'm hoping on getting the Galaxy S4 later on though, primarily so I can have a camera that isn't stuck in the dark ages.
Hasn't came out yet but I'll be picking it up later this year
Currently have an HTC One m7, works fine most of the time but sometimes just bugs out and won't open apps and won't close them, yesterday it just restarted itself for no reason but it's still nice when it works properly.
>inb4 720p screen
I'm alright with it tbqh, with the rugged viewmodel of the S60 being marketed to construction workers/General maintenance workers the battery will probably be sizable and having a 720p screen will give even better battery life. Only really use my phone to shit post, so I don't really care about screen res
>>53709455
Yes, but it syncs across all devices including the PC.
Just got a hand-me down Xperia Z1, the only problem I have with it is the filmsy micro-sd cover otherwise it's a fine phone.
>>53709715
I have a Lifeproof brand case on my iphone, its pretty rugged, and screenless. Consider them instead of that monstrosity.
Just had a massive step up from the iPhone 4S to the Oneplus 2. Had a bit of slowdown, but nothing serious. Just waiting for M to come out, desu.
Please help me decide, pham.
I'm not really looking to spend anything higher than a Nexus 5.
Moto G 1st gen is only decent looking of the lot, but I can do better than that- so no on the G.
Nexus 4 and 1st Gen Moto X are neck and neck with Nexus 5 barely hanging on as an option, as it seems a bit big.
A decent camera would be nice.
Any suggestions?
>>53701653
for 60 euros including vat unlocked and it doesn't measure 6", i think its pretty cool. not getting updated though you'll be fucked on that but thats android.
>>53693649
Fuck i had to get this phone repaired bc of the ongoing Power Shut Off issue. I got the 5x but judging by the last few months the 5 held up way better. We'll see longterm though.
>>53710177
I believe you will be happy no matter what decision you make, anon, and most importantly I believe in you.
>>53710294
<3
Had it over two years now
>>53700285
IMHO if you merge the aesthetics of the old N5 with the hardware and camera of the N5X, and sell everything for 300$/€, it would be the perfect smartphone!
>>53690155
>no notification led
Well, thanks for helping me decide on not buying it
>>53689848
One Plus One
Its quite nice,good battery life,screen, and root without loosing the fucking warrenty
so yeah,would recommend it if you know how to unfuck the ocational Android bug.
Also NEVER go nightly,its a pain sometimes.
Samsung Galaxy S Advance
>>53700036
Replace touchjizz with Nova Launcher. Improves the phone a lot on the whole.
I have s standard android phone just lime everyone else if you do nkt rhem it is you who is weird
>>53700637
I had two Lumias, the 520 and the 750 (?) and both were nice phones. I enjoyed the Windows OS although I do prefer android. The only thing that let it down was the lack of apps available, although that's not exactly an issue with the phone itself. The battery life was top notch.
>>53693847
Buy a spare battery and charger set. One you can charge the battery with outside of the phone. Keep the spare battery with you and swap over when necessary. I carry a spare battery for my Galaxy Note.
Current phone is pic related, utter shit but it covers basic functions.
Are there even any decent smartphones around that don't go beyond $200 that aren't the MotoG?
>>53698338
I was interested in it till I saw the price they sell it at here, costs more than the goddamn S7.
>>53713009
You okay anon san ?
samsung /g/alaxy /g/rand prime here. I like it, it's great. especially for a budget phone, and it handled whatever manchild vidya i threw at it.
Moto E 2015
I wish I didn't heat up while watching anime, that and teh fact the the auxiliary output got lint stuck in it so it's only playing one channel.
>>53712985

>>53700664
>GOAT of all times
I have it and while I love it and it was the best to come from Q1/Q2 2014 it quickly got overtook by others and HTC has done fuck all to make the successors any good.
Such a shame.
Any of you have any brief advice for a laggy Moto G 2nd? Apps taking a long time to load etc. What steps can I take to improve performance?
Still using my galaxy nexus on 5.1
What new phone should I get?
[/spoiler] I live in canada, so prices are harsh. Something less than 500$ would be nice. [/spoiler]
>>53698038
R$ 1 = US$ 3,69
None goes abroad nowadays bro
>>53713967
Holy shit, are you serious? Nexus 5X or 6P if you can afford it and don't mind the size
>>53714162
A 5x costs here in canada as much as a 6p in the US, fucking oil prices man.
>>53714219
I'm assuming this page is detecting my location and showing me US prices, but what does it say for you?

439. Just a couple of bucks away from a 32gb 6p.
>>53689848
Xiaomi Redmi Note 2
expected less from cheap chinkphone, pleasantly surprised, MIUI is pretty fine too, almost zero bloat, even many useless google apps removed (you can download them)
>>53714322
Do you get the $50 off promotion in Canada? If that puts the 6P within your budget, I'd highly recommend it. The only reason I didn't is because I have manlet hands.
Phones currently in use:
1) Sony Xperia Z3 Compact: Sent it back to the manufacturer to get fixed for back camera and headphone jack issues. It's stock android plus Sony's bloat. I don't like it too much for that but the rest of it is great.
2) HTC One (M7): Currently in use while I wait for the Z3 Compact. If the camera weren't dogshit I'd use this phone all the time. Seriously my only problem. I love Sense
3) Nexus 5X: Currently waiting to get delivered to my office at work, so it'll hopefully be there Monday. Going to use this as a developer phone. I don't like stock Android but if anything happens to my Z3 Compact I'll use this in the meantime
4) Nokia Lumia 640: Currently on its way to my apartment from bestbuy, it was $30, $40 with taxes and shipping included. It's going to be my Windows phone dev phone. It'll be great. I love Windows Phone, but there are like 3 key functionalities keeping it from being my main phone OS.
Future: If the HTC 10's camera is good, I'll get one sometime this year when there's a good HTC deal going on. Love Sense but I need a good camera
>>53714457
It's still 750$ with the 50$ off.
>>53710177
nexus 5x is currently $250 on ebay, you should get that
I need to upgrade lol
Nexus 6 - it's pretty good
>>53714553
That sucks leafbro. Honestly at that point I'd see if the US model will work on Canadian carriers and get a friend in the US to import one for you.
>>53690210
I switched from CM on an S4 to CM on a Nexus for this reason. Stability is a priority.
>>53690011
This. It's just OK. I might buy the SE soon tho, once the gsmarena endurance rating is given
>>53714578
Install cm13 wait for CM Nig 14
Never actually ever upgrade
How do I take a picture of my phone, if the camera is in the phone?
>>53714915
Use a mirror.
>>53713172
Wallpaper? :o
>>53714930
How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren't real?
>>53714351
Is there any rom support? What carrier are you on?
>>53714578
Me too but my bootloader is locked.
Thanks Verizon.
I have this chink phone.
It's pretty good and the only thing broken up until now are the volume rockers :^)
