Is there a phone that's actually completely good, or are they just all terrible in their own way?

I just want a phone that lets me shitpost, watch videos, listen to music, and take nice pictures whenever I need to. Is the S7 the way to go?
jesus fucking christ, why can I never reliably drag and drop files into my phone and just play them? pic related is the problem i'm having. FTP clearly fucking shows files there, but wired and unlocked shows fucking nothing, even after installing motorola's device manager bullshit.
?Is it drivers?

S7 edge recent convert from an iphone 6s. Been a week and all I've done is install the few apps I had on my old phone. What can I do that's fun and won't destroy my new toy?
Would there be any regrets if I went from Z3C to a OnePlus 3?
>>55133306
Battery is meh and the 6gb ram meme is underutilized , see op for details.
>>55133459
Battery's not too impressive on the Z3C, but that's fine. Apparently there's already a "fix" for the 6GB of RAM, but that much RAM seems like a waste, anyhow.
Anything else?

https://youtu.be/d2jav7UdQtE?t=1m52s
Bit pissed off what I'm reading about the OP3 screen and current memory problems was gonna bag that. ZUK Z2 Pro is way too expensive at the moment, I thought it would be around $200 cheaper.
Any other options for an all rounder/good screen & cam for $400/£300?
Does anyone here repurpose old smartphones they have but don't want to sell? What do you do with it?
I just found my old LG Optimus S and I want to try doing something with it. Problem is that this phone has fuckall for specs - ~400MB RAM and ~150MB of internal storage, and it runs Android 2.3.3. It'd be nice to do something with it, mostly because this thing is hardly worth selling at this point.
>>55133598
that's basically the phone my dad currently uses exclusively for texting, except his is a samshit galaxy ace
what's wrong with the op3 screen?
How's the GearVR paired with the S7?
Hey anons I've recently acquired a LG G3 but the battery life is total shit. I'm not sure if the battery is worn out and needs to be replaced but my battery life is only a few hours max if I keep my screen on. Also the phone always seems hot when on running stock 6.0 and it seems pretty bloated by default. If I flash to CM13 will it improve my battery life any?

Does the latest, newest build of CM for the Galaxy Note 2 i317 support pressure sensitivity on the spen?
I don't care about the Samsung spen features, but I do want the pressure sensitivity for drawing programs as I love to doodle and sketch, but old touchwiz is more cancerous than it is now.
how big will the pressure sensitive touch features coming with the 2016 nexus be?
do you guys think this is a good deal?

I can deal with the shitty screen.
I can deal with the poor RAM usage.
I can deal with the lack of SD card.
I can deal with all of those three, together, for the price.
But the just barely average battery and camera bump, both of which fixed with a bigger battery.
Why would OnePlus do this?

and so the search continues
>>55133804
Install cpu spy and see what your processor is doing. Make sure all apps are up to date. Sometimes you have to search for them manually to see they need updating. Worst case reset the phone to factory and reinstall apps.
Just bought an unlocked Exynos S7 Edge that still has a certain carrier's (Telcel, Mexico) bloat and startup screen. Can I remove it somehow?
>>55135036
The Apple iPhone 6S Plus doesn't have this problem.
>>55135044
It also doesn't have a 3600mhz battery, expandable display or an amoled display.
>>55135056
So it's screen is still amazing and it's battery lasted me 2 days with moderate use all the time.
You can hate on Apple all you want. I'm buy no means a very big fan but only a fool would trash talk the iPhone.

Even my G4 has a better camera than the 6s
From what I've seen( I got my hands on a G5, HTC 10 S7E, a 6s and my G4), the S7 has no match in low light conditions, the G5 shines when there's plenty of of light, the 10 was meh, but I heard they fixed it, my G4 was still able to to competent with those new flagships, and the 6s had one of the worst(but it still ain't bad)

Will be using AT&T
Almost purely a web browsing and shitposting machine, with the occasional light gaming, video watching, and snapchatting. Prefer AMOLED screens because of black themes. Needs to be easily flashable, with good community support.
Don't know on budget, but since I'll probably be using it often, $450?
>>55133280
Download a stock Android theme and download Goodlock UI from APKmirror.
Also if you're on the Exynos variant, root it
$600 AUD
1080p or more
Battery that can last a day with medium wifi use

So my nexus 5s power button just broke today (keeps flickering/holding it down non-physically) after 2,5 years. Should I pull the trigger on OP3? also nexus 5s bad camera and battery has had me on the edge
>>55135715
Get a powerbank too. Worse battery life than nexus 6p.
>>55132764
Been using the HTC 10 for the last month+ and it's really great. A no-frills, no-gimmick smartphone with blazing speed and smoooooth animations. Only gripe is that the speakers can't even come close to competing with the 3 year old M8 it replaced.
>>55135715
Wait for ZTE Axon 7
I've seen theyre offering 2 Years warranty that includes free post and return and theft cover at no extra cost, look at the speccs too
ZUK Z2 Pro is also an option but I cant find it for a reasonable price
>>55135884
Oh it even has a microSD slot.
>>55135473
Because it's a piece of shit you dumb Mapple shill.

Worth it if i care about heat, multitasking, lag, and other smartphone ideal fixes?
I'm new to the whole process so wondering if it's worth my time
>>55135907
And a better screen, actual speakers with decent sound and what looks like a above average 20mpx camera.
Should cost $450/£350 and you have to wait for the Chinese brand to release next month.
From what I've seen of the ZUK its underwhelming but there are no real reviews yet
>US, AT&T
Thinking bout making the jump from Apple.
Have a 6s, what's the best android phone on the market? The S7?
>>55135979
Looks good. Release date? My contract runs out in august.
Is the Blackberry Classic still the best smpartphone for communicating, messaging, managing emails and contacts and surfing the net?
>>55136051
both next month officialy It seems, ZUK is already out in china and available on ebay for +35% mark up at the moment.
Was weighing up OP1 but for that money and a little extra time there should be better
>>55136058
Wait for rome.

When is it supposed to come out?
Should I get an s7 edge I had a s5 before my current Nexus 6 I really mainly care about battery.

Is there anything wrong with the P9? Is the software a piece of shit?
Is there a nicely specced $200-$300 phone that's 5 inches or smaller?
I owned a Zenfone 5 (lost it), and it was rather huge for my pocket. I need a smaller phone that performs better than it. I just want the phone to be fast and easy to handle. Camera, resolution, and other features are not that important to me.
Can't afford the iPhone SE. Is that Xiaomi 4.3inch phone only a rumor?
>>55136374
Not that small and not that improvement over the battery of your zenfone 5 but one plus x should do the trick.
>>55136347
>We're also given a glimpse into the P9's performance. The 96,043 score is nothing spectacular in today's world where the Samsung Galaxy S7 and LG G5 go upwards of 130K.
>>55136374
It is. Redmi 3s pro should be affordable and got a refresh.
>>55136347
Price tag too high for what it is.
Chink software support for western prices.
>>55136121
Wait for the S7 Active for decent battery life.
I need something rootable, about the size of or smaller than the Galaxy S5, with expandable storage and a not-shit battery life. It needs to work on AT&T.
Went through 3 different xperia z3s because the screen is horribly sensitive to shock. Currently on my sisters old HTC One remix.
What I really want is a phone with a qwerty board like the moto pro I used to have. Fucker was a trooper. I'm on verizon(I know), and have been looking at the priv. I'm also not ashamed to say that I'm excited about the new razr that is supposedly in the works.
So I don't know whether to wait or what, any recs?

God the OP3 is a fucking disgrace. What the fuck did they think when making it?!

Is H.264 playback (Youtube, Twitch, offline videos, etc.) done with hardware decoding in phones?
I don't know if it counts as a Smartphone, but the Samsung GT-i5800D is literally fucking invincible, I cannot break it. I've dropped it on concrete, I've put it through the washing machine, it WON'T die.

JESUS what the fuck has happened to smartphones. My HTC m7's battery has died on top of the camera and microphone breaking and I can't replace it without shelling out $100+ to a phone repair shop, if at all. My HTC one XL has had its capacitive buttons break. I just edited the build prop to have softkeys enabled so I can use the HTC one XL again b/c im a poorfag. Meanwhile my HTC desire is still kicking.

I already have and they are not compatible with the LTE bands in ausfailia. Going to run my HTC One XL into the ground and then get a different brand.
I have a Galaxy S5 running CM13, and recently I deal with really big battery drain. In options->battery it shows that Cyanogenmod System is draining almost as much battery as the screen.
How can I fix it? Is it possible that's because of the theme? I installed android N theme that changes the looks of status bar, and the time I started using this theme more or less covers with the time I noticed this battery drain.
Just broke the lcd in my moto g LTE. I got it a couple of years ago specifically for the 4.5" screen. Can I get a recommendation for a similar sized phone? Most phones seem so big. I don't give a shit about gaymes, I just browse 4chan/reddit, listen to music/youtube/spotify (doesn't have to look all that great for youtube, I don't watch videos).

So currently I'm saving money to get myself a new phone. I was thinking of getting the Nexus 5x, me coming from a Nexus 5 but Microsoft phones with Windows 10 caught my attention. What are you guys thinking?
I want my next phone to have frontal speakers, to be waterproof and I'm not thinking of spending more than 300$. Also a microsd card slot would be nice. Me being a Google fanboy I'm really tempted to buy the 5x.
No carrier, willing to buy second hand too.

desu you could replace this entire shitty general with either 'save up for either an iphone or the latest nexus' and it'd be applicable to like 85-90% of the thread

>>55138548
alright fine OK, maybe the latest Galaxy if you're normie enough
>>55138524
>buying anything other than a Samsung
Its like you WANT your phone to break on you.
I came down to 3 choices for a new phone.
Nexus 5X 32GB (250€): no micro SD
LG G3 32GB/3GB (230€): old gen cpu
P9 Lite 16GB (225€): Huawei-locked cpu (?)
I basically want a phone that I can keep atleast 2-3 years with it becoming a clusterfuck.
Are 3GB RAM a meme? Do I need that?
>>55138772
Where do you get the P9Lite for 225€ ??
>>55138363
Perhaps I'll see if I can replace the lcd.
>>55138835
That's pretty much the price on italian websites for branded. A bit more for no brand (less than 250€ though).
>>55138772
2GB isn't enough anymore.
>>55132764
Does anyone here still use a 2013 Moto G?
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but do chinese phones have any trouble connecting to phone networks outside of china (Ireland)?
>>55138480
Nigga listen here, shell a bit more and get ZTE axon 7 when it out. If you willing to wait then wait for this year nexus. Don't get 5x and definitely don't ever get a Window phone. Capisce?
Whats the best phone for 200-250 pounds in England?
>>55138927
Is the LG G3 with 3GB good enough today? I know it was a flagship phone (that's why I'd prefer it instead of the P9 lite) but I'm wondering if the old cpu can keep me from getting updates soon. How's rom development?
I don't know shit about Android, but modders could like make the newest version available for an old model, right?
>>55139048
There's no phone that heavy, good chap.
>>55139017
Mmm...yes mister
Jesus what a beast of a phone that ZTE is. Too bad it won't run pure Android and likely the shitty Chinese version will definitely slow it down.
I think I'll wait for this year's Nexus.
>>55139159

>>55136058
This is how to spot a troll.
>>55139170

I remember my old cheap Chinese phone I was changing Roms like socks. I even got in a Bangladeshi Facebook group and helped develop some roms. Fuck I miss those times.

Is bending your phone part of your daily usage? Is burning it? Is scratching it with a knife?
>>55139375
I'd say the absolute maximum would be €170 and google tells me that's ~$191 atm
>>55139434
I suggest you get a Motorola moto g 3rd generation if you want a new device. I'm a Nexus fan and I wouldn't get the n4. Simply not worth. Or you can do like me. I bought my Nexus 5 1 year ago with 150$ with a hairline type of crack on top of the screen which is barely noticeable. Now you can find them in almost pristine condition with 150$.
>>55139048
Grab a Moto E off of Amazon. Cheap, relativelty recent, budget without being Netto, if you catch my drift.
I don't use many minutes so I use prepaid phones right now but I want a better phone. I'd like to get on one of those upgrade your phone over installment plans but the ones I looked at all seem to require plans. Are there any that I can get but still use my prepaid minutes? I use t-mobile right now.
>>55139103
LG G3 is okay and 3gb ram is enough. Plus it got great camera. Reminder though, the battery is quite shit. If you can sacrifice thinness on your phone then get zero lemon extended battery. You'll thank me later.

That's the price of a new RN3P which is the best option at that price point. pic related.

Which have been progressively less relevant and overpriced compared to the competition.

Well then why don't you suggest a better phone for the price.
Is the Zenfone 2 the best thing I can buy for $250?
64gbs + SD card and 4gbs of RAM?
guess the downsides are bloatware and the camera isn't the best but I can live without that
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875220008
I also use tracfone, so this is GSM unlocked and should work right?
Only other decent thing I can find in that price range is the One Plus One, but those are impossible to buy
>>55139048
If chinkphones match your LTE requirements, get one of those. Current non-chink mid-rangers for 200-250 are complete trash.

One Plus 3 is a solid device overall for the price. The problem is there OxygenOS apparently has memory mgmt issues. I would assume in 2-3 weeks wants the Dev community picks up you'll see custom Roms that can push the limit of the phone bettering the battery life and so on... There's no reason why it shouldn't get 4-5 hr SOT per full charge. Its still pushing the same 1080p screen with a SD820 chip. The meme to hate new phones never gets old.
>>55140095
I can't spell worth shit. But you get what I'm saying.
The real meme is the Redmi Note 3 Pro. That screen is shit. And the whole applying for bootloader unlock is fucking bullshit. Go look up the "touch point" method on JewTube if you think I'm lying. One mishap with flashing.... BRICKED

Maybe this board isn't for you if you're too retarded to simply edit a build.prop value
>>55139856
I have an ASUS Zenfone Go (smaller version of the 2). I love it though I don't really run a lot of intensive apps. Build quality is pretty good.
Bought it for $130 which is ridiculous. The quality/price ratio is what makes me love it. I'm looking forward to reviews of the Zenfone 3 and hoping ASUS really makes headway.
>>55139937
Well what else would I buy then? I thought the atom was pushing near the Note 4 in performance, I don't need the fastest thing ever anyways.
I might as well just get an LG power for 50-60 and be done with it
>>55140198
It's not about the Intel chip, it's about how the Redmeme is a much better phone for $60 less. If you want a zenfone, get the zenfone3 or the pegasus if your'e on a budget.

I can usually bring a power bank in case the battery is shit. Thanks though, that looks interesting.
>>55140367
>>55140388
nvm, apparently it will use the MT6737 which is the same SoC in the $85 Doogee in OP. and Asus wants $200 for it. kek. I retain my original position that Asus is overpriced shit.

is 4g a meme? I like the idea of a much more powerful phone, but atm I mainly use my phone for watching twitch, checking news, kikebook, snapchat, and shitposting via overchan. When I use my s5, if I have more than 5 tabs open in my browser the phone gets moderately slow and warm. I also am annoyed that I can't seem to find a way to root an AT&T galaxy. Suggestions?

for up to 300$ Nexus 5x is the best bang for the buck. Only downsides are 32gb of nonexpandable memory and a plastic build.
>>55140835
No, because everything you list is either a non-issue to people without autism or fixable
>>55141051
You don't need to root it, best not to if you care about payment apps and want to keep warranty.
If you want ad blocking, get the "adblock fast" extension from play store and use the stock samsung Internet browser.
>>55141275
Not at all. It actually performs far worse than most sub-$300 phones because of poor optimization, forced encryption and low ram.
You'd be better off with a OP2 or one of those Axon phones. I have owned every Nexus since the Nexus S, (except for the 6P), the 5X is the biggest disappointment yet.
>>55141288
Oh yeah? Then enlighten me how you want to fix a shit screen and battery and how autistic i am to care about good screen and battery.
>>55141340
Encryption has little to no impact on performance. The problem with the 5x is it has piss poor quality nand.

bout to buy a HTC 10 within the hour. It's not to late to change my mind, any suggestions?
I mostly browse the internet, watch videos (youtube and porn,) listen to music, podcasts, non graphically intensive games (mostly rhythm games)
I understand the HTC 10 is probably overspecced for my needs, but everyone seemed to say if I get the s7e over it I'm dumb, and I don't really know what other flagships compete in this bracket.
Is there a way in CM 12.1 to send SMS through Google Voice via a third party app? CM 11 had the Voice+ feature, but for whatever reason, it's not in CM 12.
>>55141376
Is the 2nd best flagship on the market. If you live in the us or have some irrational hatred of samsung then it's a worthy buy.
>>55141362
Forgive me, I didn't even think of that.
Yeah, it's still fucking awful though.
I don't know how my fiance hasn't complained. I always buy us the same Nexii and she is still using her 5x.
>>55141353
You are in fact autistic because the screen and battery isn't shit
>>55141401
I don't hate Samsung, this will be my first android phone, I hate the idea that I'll need some ass ugly case to keep my basically all glass (and admittedly very sexy) phone from being completely destroyed if it ever falls.
>>55141440
wow you sure showed him
>>55141440
I'm not autistic about the screen, it is shit. Go look up the benchmark on phonearena.
>battery isn't shit
It is. See >>55139710
Is the iPhone SE worth the extra money or should I just get a 5s?
>>55141440
http://www.phonearena.com/phones/OnePlus-3_id10017/benchmarks
It is objectively bad by all metrics.
Keep on believing though, I'm sure pajeet will magically "fix" it for you.
>>55141481
>Benchmarks
Thank you for proving that you have autism, benchmarks means fuck all to day to day usage

It's not. See >>55140402

Just leave Chin Wang, you're embarrassing your company even more.
Dropped my Xperia Z2 and smashed the screen, OP3 or S7?
>>55141739
Read the thread. Your question has been answered several times already.
LG G5 yay or nay?
>>55141692
>5h 53min with 50% brightness.
Wow, such a nice long lasting battery. But don't fear, it still has DashCharge™ that you can only use with your DashCharge™ adaptor and cable.
If you're retarded enough to prefer shit phones with shit battery, go on, but please be autistic somehwere else.
>>55141739
S7 easily.
>>55141753
It's pretty good for the price if you can get one without build quality issues, just disregard the memes modules.
1st gen Moto G here, what's a good upgrade? Preferably a phone that takes micro SD cards.
About to upgrade to a Vodafone Smart Ultra 6. Any reason I shouldn't?
>>55135715
Already ordered the OP3 myself, upgrading from a Galaxy S5.
The screen and battery is average, the rest is awesome.
There's nothing really interesting in the sub 400$ price range IMHO. I don't trust the Zuk Z2 (bad screen, slower storage), the Xiaomeme Mi5 isn't that good overall, the 5X has only 2 GB of RAM. I'd rather have the OP1 than any of those 3. It's still available today and if you don't need the fastest thing on earth, it's still pretty good. It has the best screen and best battery life of any Oneplus phone.
>>55141957
>It has the best screen and best battery life of any Oneplus phone.
That's already been proven to be objectively false.
Oneplus shills please just fuck off now, we're bored of your lies.
>>55141763
Hate to break it to you buddy, but you literally have autism if you think having your phone last a full day isn't enough
>>55142031
>not even 6 hours SOT
>full day
Fuck off and play with your crayons, retard.
My Galaxy 5S charging port is starting to go. How much of a downgrade would getting a Moto G3 be so I can prepare? I'd get one cheap from a friend who never ended up using it. Need a new phone before this one stops charging.
>>55142059
Not only autistic but also an unemployed child. What the fuck do you do during the day where you have to look at your phone for more than 6 hours during a 9 hour work day?
Not him but I'm about to buy the OP3. I'm just a regular Joe Schmoe with an interest in tech, I ain't not "Poweruser" but I can root my phone so changing a value isn't a big deal and I don't really use a phone all that much in direct sunlight so it's not really a problem here in the Carolina shade. I don't use no Facebook app nor do I play videogames on my phone. The turbo charge is a plus and I don't mind paying abit more if it will hold me up for the next 2 years. The one plus 1 I have with me has a cracked screen and a broken mic most likely from the falls.
>>55141853
No bro, it looks like a great option. Let us know how it goes because I'm tempted to get one next week.

>hes an unemployed child because he wants good hardware
Wow. That's the pinacle of autism.
If you want to know, i go to university, work 40h/month, do 5x a week sport and have an actual real life.
That's something an autistic retard like you does not have. You can't even argument proberly.
The only thing you have done is to call me an autist and say that OP3 does not suck, just cause you say so.
Goob job, now go back to jerking off to chinese cartoons in your moms basement.
I want to upgrade my Nexus 4. Money is no object. I just want a pretty fast phone with good battery life and a lot of space and a great camera. Less bloatware would be nice. I was thinking about staying with Nexus phones, if they're worth the pricetag. I don't need an xbox huge phone, I like the size of the N4, but iPhones are way too small for me.
>>55132764
so my z5 charges slow as shit, even with the stock charger. any ideas as to why?
>>55142214
S7 Flat or S7 Active.
If you don't like Samsung then wait till the next Nexus, no point in buying the last generation.
>>55142214
You just described s7
>>55142214
Do you think we get commission or something? Look for your fucking self.
>>55142158
Yes, you are. Give me one good reason for why you need your phone to last for more than a day that actually involves real life usage and not jerking off to benchmarks
>>55142233
Install ampere, see how much current it's pulling and what temperature the battery is at while charging.
Guys please stop replying to obvious paid oneplus shills, it's ruining the thread.
Which one /spg/?
>>55142284
T. Samsung shill
I'm looking to buying a new phone for my boyfriend and I towards the end of August.
I was thinking of getting the s7 Edge (not for the gimmick) or LG G5.
He was thinking of getting whatever the new motorola phone is. Moto x Pure I think?
Can someone shill me on these or tell me how they're shit-tier. I currently have an LG G4 but it's shitty.
>>55142288
Holy fuck the screen to body ratio of the SE is horrifying.
>>55142300
You have better taste than he does. Just get the regular S7 and save yourself some money, the edge adds nothing.
>>55142266
jeez. its at like 160-200mA no matter what charger/cable i use.
>>55142288
That depends, are you a girl?
