What cheap Chinese tech have you bought, and would you recommend it?
Yes, we know everything is already from China but in here we discuss the no/low-name cheap shit you see on eBay, AliExpress, Gearbest and similar sites.

Got my fat cree light finally. shipped on 1/30/2016 according to parcel. Mine had some bubble wrap and cardboard for packaging. mine didn't appear in same condition as yours but let me look. Ordered if off Aliexpress except for the little guy i got off Ebay.
Used some teflon tape on the threads for that added seal.

Pls no. I looked it up before on cuty calculator and I did not see that there would be any tariffs for imprting from Chinaman land to USA, and at the price it was at.
>>54008471
only getting this one since it has some semblance of community support and is unlockable with a CM 12.1 rom available.

So tempted
>>54008453
If you really don't mind the price, it's still really good. That would be pushing the budget limit to me though considering there's the Redmi Note 3 Pro 16gb for $175, and other 5.5" FHD MT6753, Helio P10 devices for that price.

There's a fair chance that it might not work properly.

Everywhere I checked it's still in presale mode and honorbuy only has the silver version (and that's in China, not Europe)

I think I might get the milanese metal one for mine.
>>54009028
Go for it m8 I don't like the look of the silicone band at all.
>>54008536
Because the redmi note 3 pro is faster than the LG G2, G3, and G4.
>>54008900
That looks surprisingly good. Nice work.
Any cool non tech shit you guys have found?

>>54009361
You feel it is accurate? Like with the sleeping etc?
>>54009485
From what ive heard everythin is quite accurate except the sleeping if you lie on bed and do stuff before sleeping (read, watch tv etc).
So just lie down and go to sleep if you want the most accurate sleep stats.
>>54008900
don't get it, that looks tacky as fug. and way bigger than it should be.
>>54008971
also why would it not work with the current CM redmi3 rom? basics of the pro and non-pro look the same, just with 1 more gig of ram.
unless the cpu/gpu on gsmarena is wrong for the phone.
>>54009685
It's looks way bigger than it should be because anon's wrist is not much more than 5cm wide.
>>54009744
I'd bet on there being some issues with it.
Okay so, anon who did the ATE review here.
I originally had a pair of ED9s that arrived damaged (left seal issue) and later the right connector failed in them as well.
Received my replacement today, and... tada!
Guess which review is getting delayed until KZ hires some fucking QC?
>>54009790
Do your ed9's sound muddy? I just got mine and they sound terrible.
Is the arduino from gearbest legit? how about the sensors?
I need to make a project with arduino for college, any advice for an arduino newfag?
>>54009972
yeah, buy elsewhere if you need the thing soon.
I don't see the point in those wristbands.
Is it like a botnet for your wrist?
>>54009990
I need the board in like two more months so i got plenty of time, for now i'm looking for things to do with it because i've never touched one.
>>54009972
Why do people keep buying from gearworst?
>>54010016
because i still have a couple of points left
>>54009999
>botnet
Love this meme
>>54009999
nice dubquads
also, it's nice to see what time you fapped last, since that's the only motion you are moving vigorously for. and you don't need the mi app, you can just use gadgetbridge from f-droid.
>>54008886
>>54009895
They are definitely a little muddy in the lower-mids and bass region; there's a lot of congestion and mixing going on between sound signatures there. This is noticeable when compared to the ATEs.
However, vocals sound a LOT better through the ED9s and treble has a lot more clarity and width to it.
It's kind of a tradeoff. Neither are GREAT IEMs, but for $8 they aren't bad. I wish I had a pair of 8320s and Panasonic budget-IEMs to stack up against them.
I'll be ordering a pair of Superlux HD381F's when my next paycheck comes in on the 21st so look for a review on them around early May. They might be the best shot for a decent earbud based on what I'm hearing on Head-Fi.

>Can you guys name a few actual uses for this thing? Why should I have one?
>>54009485
>You feel it is accurate? Like with the sleeping etc?
Really accurate for sleep tracking, it detects if I wake up in the middle of the night and for how long, also it tells you when you're were in deep sleep and regular sleep, the step counter has a +/-10% accuracy since it seems to track when your feets hit the ground, but if you lets say star tapping on a table it some times counts it as steps, it tells you when you walked, when you ran and for how long with an aprox calories burn.
But I mostly use it for app/calls notifications since I have bad earing, and this thing vibrating in my wrist is really useful, now I never miss a call when I used to lose at least half of them due the laughable vibrations of modern smartphones.
I simply can't live without it.
Any reviews on the BM-800 without phantom power, just directly on to the mobo?
>>54009537
Wrong, this thing know when you're just in bed and when you're actually sleeping, unless you watch tv in zombie mode, then I guess you could trick the accelerometer.

Those mic will sound okay but with low volume, if you're planning to do shit that needs good sound get at least a USB audio adapter, but if you will only use if for TeamSpeak, Skype, etc, you're good to go.

I need a new phone. My current iPhone 5S has been awesome for three years, but is starting to fail. Can anyone recomend a phone that works on Rogers Canada, has a microSD slot, decent battery, and is generally good? Bonus points for NFC.
>>54012696
Would it be easier just to get the whole bundle?
>>54012756
What are you going to use NFC for? Because if you want to root your new phone things like google pay won't work.
>>54008047
As a fellow American, gearbest generally has Amazon prices sliced by 20-50%. If you don't give a shit that it arrives 40 days later and the customer support is garbage, you can save a lot of money.
>>54012787
Not gonna root it, but i dont use google pay anyways. I'd like NFC because I have a bunch of NFC tags and they seem like fun

>>54012847
Actually, some of the best tea vendors operate directly from china and most choose to set up shop at ebay.
I like to get it from ebay because there are many reviews from fairly credible tea enthusiasts and usually proof that they have directly sourced the teas from the tea plantations (cutting out the middle men)
>>54012756
get the current fotm meme, it's a good meme
pic related about the bands but no nfc sadly
Any decent chink phone that's compatible with Sprint? I just need something rootable that isn't ass.
>>54012766
Yeah i think so, its a pretty good deal im looking a $300 for the transmitter/receiver and fpv screen but I'm getting the higher quality ones that they also sell the frsky i10 and the diversity screen.
It took me about 2 hours to build the quad so if the kits on sale is worth it. I waited for a 30% off sale to buy all up with better quality transmitter, screen and batteries in looking at $550
If you have a controller and fpv setup already is definently a good deal
>>54012858
Been an owner of Zenfone5 LTE for teh past year.
It's a great phone but they have not updated it to M, let alone L. I had to root it (and there was only 1 ROM available) just to get rid of the shitty bloatware and upgrade it to L.
Overall, it's a great phone but due to the lack of popularity, you won't find much support.
>>54012858
Zenfone is pretty much exactly what I need. Thanks so much. Any vendors you suggest in particular?
>>54012897
Lol, no, sprint is CDMA not GSM.
Unless they already changed to GSM, but doubt it.
>>54012889
I really don't want to give Ryan up, but the battery is slowly dying, the screen flickers if it gets too cold, and the headphone jack is home to some sort of fungus.
>>54012937
Tinydeal is the cheapest, and if you don't mind paying taxes their DHL shipping for the Zenfone 2 is usually free, otherwise go with the regular shipping to avoid taxes.
>>54012936
They are updating several phones to Android M starting this month dunno about the Zenfone 5, but the Zendone 2 is getting Android M.

Alrighty, thanks for the info man.

Just had alook, the bundle is about 400 kangaroo bucks
The drone on its own is 170 so it's only about $100 cheaper to get the entry level set up than it is to get the high end equipment and drone separately.
Guess it comes down to your feeling on spending extra to have a little old Chinese lady build it for you, or if you want this to be a launching point for better drones.

Oh! and DON'T get the 2GB RAM version, get the 4GB RAM version, ZenUI is kind of heavy 2GB is barely enough, 4GB you can keep shit loads of apps open and move between them immediately since everything is already loaded in the RAM.
>>54012937
Holy shit don't buy a Zenfone. Mine was such a pile of shit. Defective screens are very common. If that's your price range get a redmi note 3. Fuck Asus

do you even realize how retarded you sound right now?
>>54013110
Not all of us are 400lb sweat factories
>>54013120
Even if you get a defective screen, getting a new one cost you $18.

I run about 50k per week. I'm not fat and I'm not retarded for sweating while running. Thanks a lot you asthmatic fuckwads. I'll go back to /fit/ and get some actual advice.

You shouldn't be sweating buckets INSIDE YOUR FUCKING EARS

I feel bad, I disputed my redmi 3 order since it was like a month and I check the mail and there it is.
Wept.... they turned down my attempt to get points. What do i do now?

I generally give chinese shit a benefit of the doubt for 2 months. I have never not received something in over 50 various chink orders over the last decade, but some things have taken 7-8 weeks easily. Usually I order this shit when I don't need it ASAP and "oh that'd be nice to have to replace _____"
What the fuck happened to my shark
>>54013520
Did you take a picture before you unboxed it?
>>54013563
Yeah, why?
>>54013636
$300 is nothing to scoff at even for westerners. good on you anon.
>>54013636

>tfw want to buy a shark, but don't need an micro sd right now
I just broke my Aliexpress virginity, and at high stakes too, Cubot H1 on the way soon hopefully.
Also those sharks are cute.
>>54013618
Hmm. Worth mentioning to whoever you bought it from if you wanted a replacement due it being a faulty product.
Or are Sharks delicate?
>>54013636
Whoops accidentally deleted this, anyways yeah I'm going to see what I can do.
Bought a shitmi box 3, amazing specs but software is ass. Half the text is English while the rest is chinese, ads everywhere, adb and wifi is broken until upgrade. Works well with kodi.
Xiaomi Yi, my new favorite device :)

Meh it was 4$ and the shark is in tact I think I'm fine

Most people here will keep quiet about this because of buyer's remorse but the paint chips off really easily. I doubt the op will include the as a news item because the sharks are regarded as sacred relics in this thread at this point.
Black or Grey, anon?
>>54014546
OP here, there were some minor paint chipping on sharks posted in past threads, guess the 8gb version has paint transfer issues. I'll include it as news when (and if) I'm able to make the next Chink Shit Gen.
>>54014593
One more picture.

I kind of like the gun metal grey, makes it stand out as a phone instead of just regular black.

Thanks, guys!
My ruizu x02 and shark both have the same number that can't be tracked, anyway I can bring this up without sounding like a retard?
>>54008047
Yup, 'cause Amazon and Ebay had a whole campaign telling me on TV that they finally started sending stuff to Russia and what do I get?
I find some shit I want, Russia is an available destination in the list, I put the thing in my virtual cart, click order annnndd...
Delivery to your country is unavailable.
Yup, way to go to, guys!
>buy some KZ IEMs off of the anniversary sale
>get two when I only ordered one
uh
what do I do with two of these???
is it wrong to read aliexpress descriptions in a sam hyde level chinese accent and then laugh after every sentence
I feel like I might be doing this wrong
>>54008593
Seems like the LED is really good, maybe it was a good buy. As for that talk about it being water resistant: probably not something I want to test in case. Does anyone have a real XM-L bin to test them side-by-side, it may just be the LEDs are cheap enough for it to be real ones. Nobody has really written about the Pocketman on pastebin or so, but I found this in the reviews on ali.
>>54014742
One for each ear.
>>54014673
Gearbest? Wait a week or so. They have a habit of posting the number before they ship. Their on-site tracking is shit too. Go to the carrier's website they shipped with and try tracking it directly.
HEY
Is buying the Homtom HT7 like buying a Galaxy S3, but better?
>>54014778
Take a picture of the led and you can tell if its legit. This means taking off the lense and the metal cover of the diode.
Bicycles are technology.
Anyone bought anything interesting ? Tires maybe ?
>>54014811
I do not have a good enough camera to do so. For the price of $7 dollars I believe it is fake though. I just ordered whatever was most sold when searching for "flashlight" on aliexpress and sorting by orders. Do you meant they still print around it what it is like cree, lattebright etc?
>>54014796
No Ali
Different vendors aswell
I was a bit late to the party, but nonetheless:
Does this prove that the Chinks have a sense of humour, or is it just another case of Chingrish?
>>54014831
Frames, crank sets and wheels from China, yes. Tubes and tires from more reputable European brands like Continental.

>>54014899
Seems like I took some pictures of it yesterday without posting. This is about as good as I can get with my current camera. I can post later on with a much higher resolution SRL or open it up later on to see what is written under the metal cover, but my mind tells me this one is fake. Can anyone link me a real one I can buy so I can do a side-by-side comparison of the LEDs strength?
>>54015110
Actually, it looks pretty darn close to the XM-L, even if it is not sure how to know the difference between the bins T2, T3, T6 etc.
>>54015006
Rest assured that 99% of the time it is broken English hence being involuntarily funny. Still cracks me up reading descriptions sometimes though.
On a side note I am quite entertained by the notion of actual Trump supporters buying these. 'I dislike anything non-American yet happily buy all my goods from Chinkland to save $0.5' - irony at its finest.
I have an empty full length mini pcie slot on my computer. It's probably only wired for usb since it's for a 3G modem. Are there any decent things I can add? Any suggestions or internal usb adapters?
>>54015247
Make America Great Again cap made in America $25, Made in China: $7. Some people are just sellouts can't afford to pat $25 for caps.
>>54015281
Doesn't the american made one also give money to trump?
>>54015312
That is probably the whole point of the caps, but even then $25 is pretty fairly priced considering what brand names charge for one. I would want the real one as I plan on using it as a joke, but sadly it doesn't seem like they ship it internationally. Anyone know if any of the fake ones are good enough (not the type that falls together, has shitty text, quality etc) so I can still do what I'm thinking of? The two first ones look like they could at least be used, not sure. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Make-America-Great-Again-Hat-Donald-Trump-Hat-2016-Republican-Adjustable-Mesh-Cap-Golf-Political-Patriot/32607180117.html
so how retarded would it be of me to get one of those chink microsd to ssd cards and put like 4 of my unused 64gig sharks on it, using the drive simply as a library for files I have concrete backups of
>>54015370
Terrible idea, for backups you should get some cheap huge storage disk like 5TB it costs just a tad bit more and is much more reliable. If you instead do like put the sdcard in and transfer files to it with a USB reader to store backups with then sure that could probably work. Would not really recommend that though, it all defeats the purpose of using microsd over Ultra Fit from SanDisk etc etc...
>>54015110
>>54015245
That seems to be a legit XM-L. I've ordered from Pocketman before and gotten a flashlight with a legit XP-E Q5 LED, I believe their stuff is legit, and that they simply brand their barrels (like many resellers).
The different bins won't physically look different, they'll be slightly brighter as you got up in bins and they might have a different tint as you go higher but that's it.
I don't understand...
>>54015419
Only one way to find out. I am ordering real batteries (not AAA), if they light up with 3x the brightness they should be real ones right? I was a bit confused by a Russian guy writing something about fake when he bought two at them claiming two different ones arrived, one fake one real. Check out his reviews, also confirmed he bought two on his profile http://feedback.aliexpress.com/display/detail.htm?ownerMemberId=187794707&memberType=buyer
Assuming they do switch them out randomly I got the bottom one, where I believe he says it was fake? Not sure, it's not all that clear. But at least I think it's possibly? confirmed these chinks are switching them out randomly in case anyone orders Pocketman in the future.
Should I?
I'm waiting more than a week now for those lazy guys over there to ship my dinosaur costume.
How long do you wait before complaining if they don't ship?
what is with you guys and jerking off to your sd cards you got from china?
>>54015470
>>54008459
I only made one test with the LEDs on a door, as per my post in the previous thread. If anyone is interested we can make a test with 3xAAA on a set distance, mode (full zoom?) wall color while its dark and take a picture to see the difference in brightness/signature of the LED. It may be a poor idea, but I believe it just may work out. From the looks of yours it seems pretty bright (over what I got), but the current picture isn't that great for comparison. An issue could be the focus, saturation etc while it's dark and only one LED light source.
>>54015470
If it turns out to be fake you could always get a refund. It's possible to order directly from pocketman on ali, their store is http://polk.aliexpress.com/store/636596
is someone here trying to go into reselling chink shit in his country? does it work?
anyone here has experience / done that?
>>54014796
No they don't, they always send a picture of the package when it's packed and goes out that day.
>>54015612
>http://polk.aliexpress.com/store/636596
Wow, they had their own store this whole time and it costs the same price. Just my own fault for sorting after orders without looking properly. Looking at the reviews on their own store, however, it looks like they are different there too. Difference in print "XM-L T6" some are bigger, other smaller. It seems like they all recently switched to selling the new ones with phat print, not the smaller text ones. You can also spot the difference because the new ones has the zoom markings next to the pring while the older ones doesn't. So this may mean all the new ones are all fake? I sure hope not, they are ruining their brand if they do this. About a refund, I heard aliexpress doesn't give a shit and I never had to use it for my 40+ orders so far. Should I just send them a picture of the differences on mine and the one pictured and say it's not as bright as original one if I do or make some video about it?
>>54015765
Forget about the zoom markings, forgot that you could put that anywhere as you can freely position it.
Did anyone open up their shark to see what it says on the chip?
>>54015558
They have cool sharks on them
>>54015852
The pain of having to destroy a shark is real. Can always order the cheap 8 GB $2.50 and open that instead of the big ones I have. I think there is a Samsung chip inside with a cheap Chinese controller, but I have not confirmed this myself just some rumors I've heard.
