im tired of using shit apple and am wanting to get a new phone. what would you recommend?
>>10957974
Sorry iPhone is the most /fa/. Some androids look nice but they are slow as shit, freeze up, and no one likes texting someone with a green bubble. All android is good for is camera specs
>>10957981
>no one likes texting someone with a green bubble
This is so true
the Nexus 6P shits all over the latest iPhone, it's fast as fuck.
also it's 2016 who the fuck is still on a contract without unlimited free texting lol
>>10957981
Iphones are social phones
Androids are far more versatile
>>10957974
white iPhone 6s plus with no case
shows your have $$$ and you're a sociopath
just like if you have a white luxury car, automatic sociopath status
>>10957974
BlackBerry passport
I phones are the pleb pinnacle btw
>>10957974
Samsung are real /fa/
so are Sony Z series
>>10958089
>fast
>not fastest
>>10958175
Samsung and Sony are both autism core, the worst Android has to offer tbqh
>>10958185
keke
Theyre the best good loking phones
>>10958161
its 2016
>>10957974
I use the iphone because it's thin enough for me to slide in and out my asshole.
>>10957981
KEK
Android phones are twice faster than shitty iphones
They only look okey
>>10958198
>android
>fast
As a Nexus 5X owner, Android is generally laggy as fuck.
Just get a good Samsung ( it doesn't matter if it's ugly as fuck) then just search for a classy/funky case.

My nexus 6p does everything pretty much instantly, no different than an iPhone. Counting fps on phone video games is fedora tier. The iPhone 6 I used got a lot hotter than my 6p. My old iphones (1,3g,4, 5c) all got much slower after updates. My old Galaxy s4 was marginally faster after getting the lollipop update and is still perfectly usable today.
>>10957981
Do you have your charger on you? Because if you have an iphone you're going to need to charge it a lot. Oh, and insurance is a must have because if you drop that thing it will break.
>>10958237
I've had my iPhone for 2 years without a case, never broken. I've even ran over it on accident with a friends go-kart at 35 and the screen is still fine.
Tbh I find people who don't use an iPhone puzzling. It's a mild annoyance when I have to text people with green bubbles
>>10958316
You're one lucky guy then.
> /fa/
> not getting sucked up by one plus hype
Seriously, don't. Least stable CM ever
>>10957981
shill somewhere else
iphone's quality is low now, with so many bugs it's literally trash
>>10957981

man this board is so underage it hurts
>>10957974
Most effay Android phones in this order...
Nexus 6P
One Plus X, Ceramic version is nice
One Plus 2 with wood
Xiaomi Mi4 or wiat for the Mi5
Moto X Style with wood or leather back
Sony Experia Z-Line - shitty Sony Android though
LG G5 - shitty LG Android Version
everything else is a joke.
i would recommend a Nexus because it's fast, smooth and you get updates and good support.
How do you guys feel about the HTC? Broke as fuck and I'm probably going to have to roll with this since it has a fairly cheap plan. Seems nice though?
>>10958349
I don't know why people hate the green bubble? Like it's not a big deal.
But then nobody ever texts me :( ...
oneplus 2 for sure
>>10959051
Looks really good desu.
>>10959051
looks okay. but htc isn't a good OEM for andoid phones.
you won't get major updates and HTC raped the smoothness of stock android with their dumb and ugly modifications.
get a nexus instead.
>>10959130
I'd love to get a Nexus 6P in theory, but as I said there's probably no way I could swing that anytime soon
>>10959153
the nexus 6 is currently discounted on the motorola page.
>>10958161
>I like having a square in my pocket
the gold iPhone 5s is the most /fa/ phone of all time
>>10959250
>gold
too tacky. space grey or white is the best.
the only effay android phones have been the nexuses.
Is the silver iphone 6s plus effay?
>>10958971
?
Do you not text people?
>>10958159
>tfw this is my dad
and he calls me a sociopath pff
>>10957974
All the people ITT are faggots. Go to Anandtech, they demonstrate again and again that the iPhone and iPad wreck the competition just in pure speed. There is literally no faster phone.
If you're going for /aesthetic/, iPhone 4/4s/5c (most beautiful phones ever made) or the Nokia Lumia series. Not their Android phones, the Windows Phones. Most aesthetically pleasing OS, paired up with beautiful acid-bright colors. Plus they're built like bricks, don't even need cases.

The Android phones won in maybe 2 or 3 categories from all 20-ish tested, and even then only by a few points.
ANDROID FAGS BTFO.
Enjoy that big faggy bar on the back and shit performance, 6P users.
>bu-bu-bu muh customization!!!
All good customization on Android requires rooting, and that's just as difficult as jailbreaking your iPhone (read: not hard at all), and both void your warranty anyway, so STFU.
>bu-bu-bu muh open source!!!
Android is blobbed to hell, and it's run by Jewgle, a company run on opaqueness and data harvesting. The fact that the Android kernel is a derivative of the Linux kernel means *nothing.* Apple has no interest in harvesting your data, they earn no money from it. Plus, their phones are more secure (encryption on by default on ALL iOS devices, plus a million other things).
>bu-bu-bu muh RAM!!!
You only need so much RAM because you're running such a shit OS. On the 6 and 6s, or the iPad Air and up, you're never going to hit a reload on Safari. That stopped being a problem 2 years ago.
>>10958093
m-me
this is sexy af, idk wat ur talking about
>>10960775
Nah senpai. HTC One M7 was the fucking sexiest phone of life. Literally switched from 4s to that for the looks.
>>10960840
>HTC One M7
>big white bars on back
>BEATS BUH DRUH logo on back
>bigass HTC logo on the face
>that non-geometric profile
>unbalanced top half of the face
wait, really? I mean, different strokes, man, but damn, away from the literal best phone to that?
I will admit, it's one of the better looking Android phones, but it really has a lot of problems for me personally.
But hey, whatever floats your boat, man.
>>10960862
Other than the beats logo it was pretty much perfect.
>>Perfect fit in the hand
>>Full metal finish felt great to touch
>>Dat weighty feel in the hand
Moto G+Republic Wireless
Not /fa/ but you have to make concessions if you're going to be unemployed and still cop shit.
You're all wrong, the /fa/est phone is the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+
i can't believe there are people cucked enough here to use iphones
that being said the waywt shows that 99% of posters here are clueless normies so i wouldn't expect less
>>10960944
maybe if you're a saudi prince wannabe
>>10960775
Lumias look garbage.
iphone 4/4s still winners in looks, some sony/huawei android phones coming close
Pretty much any nexus from the 6 to the 5x or 6p will make your iPhone look like the piece of over priced filth it is.
>>10961049
Explain.
Black Huawei P8 Lite is where it's at OP.
Got a 1+ two. Pretty happy, very clean design.
/fa/ approved
iphones and HTCs are the most /fa/ phones on the market nowadays, imo.
would totally use some G4 with leather case, 10/10.

You fell for the bullshit. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=q2Hx3dOP9xI
>>10959785
Who texts anymore? Hahaha
>>10961195
this so much.
benchmarks are fucking useless. the companies are even optimising their phones to perform good only in benchmarks.
according to benchmarks a samshit s6 is faster than a nexus 6p but everyone comparing these will quickly realize that the nexus is much faster in almost everything and feels a lot more smooth and fluid.
ProTip:
You can speed up most Android devices even more if you eneble the developer mode (just click the build number a few times. you won't lose warranty). there you can set the animation speed. you can make it more as double as fast!
but be careful, if you are too stting it too high it might result in some micro stutters.

nice shilling right here.
Also have some facts:
iOS Apps crash a lot more often than Android Apps and the System is less stable...
>https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/1097982-state-of-mobile-performance.html
iOS and OSX which it is based of are the most unsecure operating Systems with the most vulnerabilities...

that vid
>using chrome
why the hell would you use chrome if you have the freedom to install naked browser which is basically the fastes mobile browser available?
also them gesture based controls for maximum speed and view of the actual web content.
>OG af
Fuck ur homo smart phones

>iOS and OSX which it is based of are the most unsecure operating Systems with the most vulnerabilities...
Not the guy you're replying to, but you do know that that's a combo for *every* version of OS X and iOS since their first release, right? They fudged the list so that it's super misleading. OS X has actually had way *fewer* vulnerabilities, year-by-year, than Windows or Android.
Not the guy you're replying to, just hoping to clear up that confusion.
>>10959785
I text people to set up plans or asks questions so they can respond at their convenience.
I don't shoot 100 messages a day like some high school girl in one of those twitter memes
>>10961456
nope not completely correct. klick the link, it is set to only show the vulnerabilites of 2015. you can change the date on the top.
Also, yes Microsoft Windows is splitted. But Android isn't.
But who cares about Windows anyway.
>>10957981
OPO is sexier in my opinion, also if you weren't so ignorant you would be able change the messaging app on your phone....idk if ios lets you have freedom to do that,
iPhone w/custom paint scheme.
i wish the nexus 5x design was as minimalistic and elegant as the one of the nexus 5.
i really love the design of the nexus 5.
>>10962211
it isn't needed that's why.
IOS just werks while android doesn't.
Also, of course you wouldn't know, poorfag.
houses only make cases for iphones anyway so its impossible to have an /fa/ phone without an iphone.
Post home screens

iPhones without cases are most effay.

If text message colors are honestly a concern for you you're too young to even buy a cell phone. Guarantee he's a kid with an iPhone that his parents pay for.
This is what I use
Literally rate
>>10966038
i like the design of LG phones in terms of their form and silhouette (nexus 5 is a simple beauty >>10963467)
But the leather back looks dumb with that seam, and the leather color also is kinda ugly. they should have done it like motorola with the moto x or Xiaomi (>>10963453) with the leather back.
software wise LGs android is pretty crappy and should be switched to a nice vanilla android.
>>10966038
I'm having difficulties.
Should I use the quick circle snap on case, or the leather back?
The leather is black and the case is violet
