is swappa a reputable place to buy used phones? Is it legit? Is it /spg/ approved?
>saar please stop buying apple get poco or xiaomi it's the best where i coming from!
>we will make /spg great again
Stay vigilant, shills are in this thread. They will make fake stories up about how amazing a $400 mid tier is and it's just nonsense. Check the benchmarks and user reviews, don't listen to people shilling brands only bought in regions where majority of the population is poor and can't afford modern flagships by Apple, Samsung or Google.
$1,100 is not a lot of money for people in first world countries with jobs, the shills are working overtime to make you buy a cheap handset.
With Christ shining his light on this thread we will prevail. Keep ignoring the demonic shills, give them no (YOU) and keep posting the truth.
>>105555420no way this is real
So... any good iPhone mini-sized Android recommendations?
Don't worry about my software usage, I've been an Android user for the longest time I just want a device that's similarly sized and with decent hardware
I never really expected Crapple to go with liquid ass and it looks horrible
>saar vivo, oppo, xiaomi, and poco are the best ignore all scientific data proving otherwise please redeem small monetary savings and do the needful coping and seething
>saar this unknown lower quality device hated by reviewers and scoring lower on benchmarks is the best flagship available
>shills exposed as lying fake tech enthusiasts who cant hold a educated knowledge based argument using benchmarks and reviews to justify their false claims lol lmao even
>>105555763>So... any good iPhone mini-sized Android recommendations?no such thing in >current year
Why is my iPhone from India so bad? Can anyone help me get the better Chinese one?
>/spg tech saarport reminder
Anyone shilling for one brand or device without backing up the claims with benchmarks or user reviews is a liar. Don't trust poorfags who have to make up fantasies about a $300 device matching up with a globally sold and admired flagship over $1,100. These same fake tech enthusiasts will than tell you to ignore benchmarks so you reply to them using reviews backing up the benchmarks. Don't let these impoverished people trick you into buying devices only sold in a specific region full of people who can barely afford to spend $400. lol lmao even
Got 4 years out of a 200 dollar phone (se 2020), i love being a cheapfag :D
really just got it for the 4.7โโ size
Only devices that matter, any other phone is bought by impoverished uneducated consumers. Be smart by flagships from Apple, Samsung or Google only. No amount of cope is going to make your mid tier better. If your mid tier was so nice it would be global and not only popular in Saarville.
>be apple
>open production in india
>50% becomes unusable
great news apple allows you to refuse indian made apple iphones in store you can exchange them for the better manufactured ones.
pic rel is how to spot the one you never want.
avoid all india made trash.
Folding phones are great for greedy companies because that screen only has so many folds until you have to buy a new one.
>>105555815I'd settle for a samsung but maybe I should just grab a pixel during my Japan trip this year (they don't sell pixels in my shithole)
Been wanting to replace my dying iphone 13 mini with another iphone then apple pulls this garbage design out, so if there are no good tiny phones out there then I have no choice
550 KB
it's very interesting how a brand can move to a certain place full of people who will ruin everything they have accomplished to be the most popular smartphone and are only able to sell 50% made there due to faults in manufacturing
avoid all phones from places like this and shills who say otherwise
hello saars please telling me which mobile to redeem for best selfie camera to take pics with white females visiting india. i promise not to say i touched their bobs or vagenes*
should i redeem pooco, oppoo, onepoo, xiaomeme, motr00nola or railme and do the needful and install gaypeen os?
>i dont promise btw* ;)
>>105555895if you really like the 13 mini the s25 is a better bet, size is one thing but p9 is 35g heavier than the samsung, and while that's not an extreme difference it is noticeable
>post benchmarks and reviews
>ignore giving (YOU)s to shills and trolls
>call them out for pushing cheap stuff poors barely afford as being the "best"
>the j33ts and they/them crew start sperging
No amount of shilling will stop us from making this general great again. We will call out false statements and not let poorfags trick people into thinking a horrible branded device for $400 could ever match a $1,200 flagship by Apple, Samsung or Google. It's popular in a region full of people living in poverty, yet shills cope and seethe.
>spg tech saarport reminder:
Not even in the country of origin do these mid tier low end phones out sell Apple or Samsung. They are not quality goods and don't last as long. Shills are in here lying and spreading false information. No amount of cope from a region that can barely afford to spend $400 on a phone should change your mind. Only flagships that matter are Apple, Samsung and Google. The ones living in poverty will ignore all the facts just to feel better about their mediocre device.
Don't engage the shills!
These fake tech enthusiasts are posers, they most probably are paid shills notorious from the region these horrible devices are shilled from.
The issue too is brainwashing, 3rd worlders are fed lies and lack the cognitive dissonance to decipher between fact and fiction.
>>105555858Whats the 2025 version of the iphone se
>16enuh uh
>/spg tech saarport reminder
Any anon talking about Xiaomi, Poco, Oppo, Realme, Redmi, OnePlus or Motorola is not your friend. Do your own research and it becomes clear what region these mid tier devices with horrible reviews and low benchmarks are popular in. Literally a nation of people suffering in poverty. The evidence will further expose poor shills from a lower consciousness pushing lies and sperging silly out bursts with no intellectual aspects. Don't engage the 70iq shills they are weird and sad and smelly. Only Apple, Samsung or Google devices matter.
don't let shills trick you. only apple, samsung, or google matter. coping impoverished $400 mid tier owners spread misinformation and are super mad they can't afford better devices
>>105555858mine couldn't even last for half a day anymore but I'm surprised by how it lasted me for 4 years
>remind the mid tier owners they have the oldest Android OS out
>j33ts and they/them start copium maxing out saying not all improvements are a big deal
Noticed no one really ever talks about Android 16 and it's because of the doo doo phones you all own. The Android 16 os is super legit too. Sucks you guys cant use it on your lower end phones. Cost of wanting to save a few rupees lol lmao!
Still no Android 16 on your "flagship" device? Hahahahahahaha!!!!!
Android 16 status mid tier shills?
funniest thing is how these shills and poorfags have to flash roms for a better experience on mid tier trash and use the google camera app cause its better than the trash their phone comes with

nothing wrong with buying the best smartphone, but it will always be a supplementary device to the PC
you anons own a PC, right?
just ordered picrel (512gb 12gb ram) for 260 euros
what am I in for?
>>105557494enjoy your comfy motokino anon
>>105557494im gonna buy this too. other models of this series had curved display, this one got flat display so yayy :3
Should I wait for find x9 or just buy x8s plus of china version
I heard in a random video that you can emulate PSP games on android.
What phone do I buy to play picrel and have a good experience? Anything specific I need to pay attention to?
Like does it need specific processors?
>>105557494where did u buy it from
A16 5G 8/256 for 170โฌ or A36 6/128 for 250โฌ? It's for an older person who sometimes takes pictures but quality is too important. Lognetivity is more important.
>>105555420the jeet didnt came up with this he just tasked coding it
>>105558420If you can afford it, A36 all day. It's slightly better in terms or screen. The SnapDragon 6 Gen 3 is noticeably faster than the Dimensity 6300 in the A16 and the extra 4GB ram in the A36 will handle more apps and background processes.
Anyone got a good suggestion for simple file explorer app on android? I had one for a while but now it's started asking for permissions it shouldn't need so I wanna change

>>105558295I've emulated PSP games on a phone with 3GB ram and a random mid-2010s MTK chip.
What I mean is, it's not nearly as demanding as you might've thought. The biggest issue you might face is using the on-screen buttons to control the game.
>>105559559I will look around how this is done.
Who knows my current phone might be capable enough then.
Thanks.
>>105555375 (OP)I was thinking of getting a foldable phone that can maybe serve as a drawing tablet till I found out their screen scratch from fingernails alone, which I assume means no stylus support
>>105559954yeah the screens are made of a soft plastic so they can, you know, fold in half
>>105560000Here's a stupid question then, why not make the entire screen made of regular glass except the corner that bends? Surely there's a way to seperate the plastic from the glass and make them look like they're combined, easier said than done doe.
Here's a better one, why not just make them separate displays with hinges instead and focus on making the bezels as small as possible? Either way its miles better than have the display scratch from a fucking fingernail.
Also checked
>>105560089>except the corner that bendsI've also thought of that, but I'm not in material science so no clue if that would actually work.
The hinge concept has been done to little success, but with thin bezels it might actually work in current year, who knows!
But yeah, the durability to price ratio is the reason I'm probably never getting a foldable with the current screen tech.
>>105556566Xperia 10 V
>b-b-b-but the bezels and notch!Not real features. Real people don't care about this.
>>105559954>>105560089Glass gets scratches, not plastic.
Also the S Pen has a soft end, you won't be using an actual pen on a foldable.
>>105560089I imagine it'd feel awkward when you slide your finger across the screen when you transition form glass to plastic to glass again. Plus the bigger worry for them is wear and tear on the folding section, which this wouldn't remedy
I want to try grapheneOS without spending too much. Which model should I go for?
>>105557494I've used mine for a few months, it's a good experience so far. The phone itself is responsive and I like the smaller form factor. Stock ROM is vanilla-ish and uses the default Google apps for almost everything.
>>105559954Got an ipad air recently and it's pretty comfy with the pen.
11" is plenty for hobby stuff as well.
If you don't want to get a matte screen protector you can get a hydrogel or whatever it's called. (kinda plastic)
The pen will leave small marks, but when turned on it's unnoticeable, while the pen "digging in" gives you enough resistance to feel less slippery than glass.
I liked it more than expected honestly. You have to press really hard to make the grooves, but they also disappear after a thorough clean and a bit of time.
(pic rel. 1st image is hard pressure, 2nd is softer, 3rd is after wipe) Note it's not grease, this is on a freshly cleaned screen and you can physically feel the grooves before they are gone.
A foldable is likely similar type of plastic, so it would leave marks on the screen directly. Not sure if it can "heal".
Android drawing apps are generally worse even if it's by the same developer. If you want to have an on-the-go device you can probably carry the 11" easily.
I'm a manlet with small hands and I can still hold it in one hand and use the pen with another.
If portability is the reason you want one for drawing then you might want to consider this especially if price doesn't seem to be an issue for you, factoring in the cost of a foldable and all.
>>105557494Man I'm waiting on the Edge 60 NEO ever since I saw this and realized it's almost a year old.
>>105560879How is the back camera bump thing holding up? Seen people complain that the glass on the camera scratches up pretty badly.
Also what about the fake leather? I hate pleather since it always peels in my experience.
>Stock ROM is vanilla-ish and uses the default Google apps Can you remove the search bar/google thing without changing the launcher?
>>105560942Haven't had issues with scratches but I'm using the case it came with. It rests on the edge of the lower camera otherwise, so I can see how quickly scratches could appear.
Haven't had any issues with the fake leather either but again, I'm using it in a case. The phone's well-built overall, I don't see anywhere in particular it could start peeling from.
Yeah, I don't have the search bar on my home screen and I use the stock launcher.
>the jeet didnt came up with this he just tasked coding it
pure lies 2 jeets in the pic rel are the head designers of Liqueef Ass ipoOS 26
>extremely cringe, a cheap useless toy can do everything an expensive useless toy can. severe cope if you disagree
don't make me post the benchmarks and reviews that made you lying sirs sperg out in the last thread.
These are the lying shills from Saarlandia that poo up the thread to cope and seethe for buying trash devices that fit their extremely small budgets.
>>1055603466a probably, it's the cheapest pixel still getting updates
anyone installing Graphmeme OS should be investigated by the police for hiding illegal activity
>pic rel are the people living in extreme poverty shilling for trash devices that come in here and spread misinformation.
Imagine trusting the words of someone from a nation with the worlds biggest slum and people literally living in the nastiest impoverished conditions in the world.

Why even release Android 16 without Material 3? That's so stupid.
Opinions on NOTHING phones?
It looks like the best bang-for-buck non-xiaomi phone in my region, but I'm genuinely scared from all the apparent "organic marketing" surrounding this company.
When I searched it up people had some real mixed opinions.
On paper I really like the idea of the essential space thing, if it was full offline. The AI shit really ruins it for me.
I currently use telegram self message in a similar way, screenshot, talk over, note to self type things.
Not 100% sure how I feel about the OS either, not the worst.
Anyone with actual first hand experience with them?
>>105562856>if it was full offlinewait, it isn't? lmao, that was the only thing that made me even consider nothing
>>105561720I charge my s24u with a 25w. Does 45w make a difference there?
>>105563136it should charge faster with 45W
>>105563082I have looked into it a bit and I've read that to even have the notes available you need to connect to the internet and let them process it because of the AI features in it.
So not only is it online it is hard locked online.
They will turn it into a subscription service, though that seems to be mostly a rumor for now I guess.
Would have been a cool feature honestly, like a dictation device in a phone.
To be fair any phone could probably do this.
I wouldn't be shocked if the next google/samsungs will be able to do this + transcripts offline ondevice.
>>105563136yea, it kills the battery faster
>>105555375 (OP)I've migrated from a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G (128GB 12GB RAM) to a Motorola Moto G15 (128GB 8GB+4GB -RAM boost). I had to after the screen of my Sammy became unresponsive after cracking. I'm pleasantly surprised. A downgrade that doesn't quite feel like a downgrade, except for the camera, and I can do with that because I now have a decent dedicated camera for photography. For under 120 bucks? Fuck yea. Repairing the Sammy would have cost me three times as much as that. I can also do with the slightly less snappy performance. An no fucking retarded glass back and massive glass piece over the camera array! I can't imagine myself investing over 1000 bucks in a fragile high end phone anytime soon when the Moto is ridiculously capable at just 120 bucks. I can use all my apps, even play the games I've used to on the Sammy, decent crispy IPS display, good side-mounted fingerprint reader... I'm still top fucking keking at how this is possible.
>Realizing as a lardo that my only decent option for a phone is an iPhone because samsung and motorola lobbied all the good androids out of the country

>>105564000That's how many pixels are in each frame. You know, like blowing up a thumbnail to 500000x500000 in paint
also lenses are pretty universally shit
>>105564000Megapixels don't mean anything. Most photos are "binned" down to 12MP anyways. Full HD 1080p video? That's literally TWO megapixels (2 million pixels, 1920 times 1080) worth of data. No more.
>>105564011>>105564020This is fucking stupid then.
I might as well just buy a shit phone and a shit, but actually usable camera to record stuff on.
I mean photos look decent, but then I guess they just do some AI smoothing to make things look sharp with all the extra pixels idk.
Kinda sad that video shot on flagships also looks kinda meh. Photos are great, but video is universally fucked.

I am not a social person, but I was able to handle multiple calls from different sources on all my previous phones (LG) that this shit is so fucking asssssssss.

Best phone with aux port, and least bloat?
>>105555375 (OP)reminder that not a single fold exists with an mSD card slot so they are all worthless.
aux port and sd card fags are poor or stupid. so many options exist for you yet youre itt fagging.
can someone explain to me why half of smartphone community wants aux still in 2025? do they not know dongles exists yet?
>>105565895I don't need one but it's a nice to have? Older cars don't have Android Auto or even a BT compatible radio so you need to plug in. My 2001 Corolla has an aftermarket multimedia player with BT, so I don't actually need the jack, but it would still be nice to have if I end up riding with someone even more broke ass than me.

If Apple doesnโt give me the option to COMPLETELY remove the glass shit when iOS 26 comes out Iโm moving to jeetdroid. I would go with a Sony if they still sold them in the US but I will probably go with a pixel, the 9A looks pretty based.
>>105569241>If Apple doesnโt give me the option to COMPLETELY remove the glass shit when iOS 26 comes out Iโm moving to jeetdroid.you will use it anyway
>>1055691482-4 years is a long ass time to be using the same piece of hardware, considering every manufacturer comes out with a new flagship every year and has a mid-cycle refresh with an FE or T variant 6-9 months down the line.
I won't deal with this anymore. I will get one of these for bed time to watch videos with my body relaxed so I can fall asleep.
I hate how fictional characters are always depicted as having iPhones unless SPECIFICALLY their phone is a character-defining prop, like to make them seem like a gamer or a nerd or something, in which case they might have something else. But the default is an iPhone for whatever reason, when it should be Samsung.
>>105569774yeah and they put zero new useful features into it, just taking away more and more every year.
wake me up when they make a new phone with 3.5 jack SD slot and it blaster.
>>105570087>for whatever reasonthe reason is money, anon.
apple pays everyone to put iPhones into their movies.
>>105570102More powerful chip is the only feature that matters. You can upgrade to wireless headphones. You can buy cloud storage. You can use the fucking TV remote.
You cannot make your decrepit 2-4 year old phone play the latest games at 60fps maxed out settings.
Red pill me on midrange/budget-premium phones. Especially for someone in burgerland
>>105570119it only matters if you play games.
even helio g99 is enough for any possible non gaming phone activities even with multitasking, and that costs nothing.
and if you play games so much that it matters, you're playing connected to the wall and with a cooler.
and if that, then might as well just buy a laptop for the same price of a flagship and like a Poco.
except for the price of flagship you can buy a laptop AND a Poco with an soc that will play gacha at 60fps.
so what the fuck is the point of flagships and buying new phones?
games don't even get released with that high of requirements because majority of phone gamers are poor thirdworlders or kids. games run bad cause they're poorly optimised not cause they need it.

>>105562856I had the Nothing phone (1) that I lost earlier this week, and honestly it was one of the better phones I had, even if it was few years old
I was anon asking about replacement in last thread, and I might just get another one, maybe CMF 2 Pro just for lanyard.
Though on online discussion there's apparently (a2) model that had issues, otherwise complaints are mostly camera related, and that hardware is seemingly weaker at same price point. But there's also claims that there's paid trash talking about Nothing, so online discourse is battle of the shills and what comes to Essential people say it's rather barebones and glorified screenshot button so far
My other two cents are that it has interesting gimmicks for each phone, CMF wouldn't be too expensive try for latest attempts like essential and weird magnetic shit while regular (a3) seems most unnecessary model. Otherwise specswise without AI attempts the (2) on sale probably would be a good bet
>>105571401Oh ye. Fuck this and bendy tubes. I'll get this, more classic and industrial.
The Nothing (a)-series was only released to keep their flagship Phone(2) from dropping into the midranger price bracket.
>>105568824Motorolla crap like App store, games, family space, hello you etc
https://calyxos.org/news/2025/06/11/android-16-plans/
the funniest part about this is that google seems to think people like their hardware but its mid in every respect.
i always assumed (as do many others) that pixels represented the bar; the minimum of what you have to offer to be considered a functional phone experience and it was on the other (main-line phone manufacturers) to provide the frills.
pixels have no frills; and so by blocking asop development then for what goddamn reason would you waste your money on a pixel device? Lmao. Every other phone manufacturer outside of budget ones and weirdo chinkphone shit blows them out of the fucking water its not even funny.
so what's the point? or are they just -that- deluded?
Just picked up an S25 Ultra, and installed Nova Launcher. Should I be worried about the stock launcher simultaneously running in the background or does using Nova put it to sleep?
My siblings wants a Sony phone birthday for I think aesthetic purposes, not necessarily the newest one or even non-used one, so what should I look out for? Sony's naming schemes are absolute ass and trying to find info about decade long lineup is gonna be pain, that's why I will ask you autists
>s25 and s25 utra supremacy
kneel good sirs!
>>105562856>Opinions on NOTHING phones?It's a pretentious company trying to be the Apple of the Android world. Similar strategy - push underpowered hardware for a much higher price on unsuspecting consumers through elaborate marketing. Exaggerated emphasis on design, self-important aura for easily impressionable fools, performance takes a backseat. Their latest releases, the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro in special, are under-specced offerings being sold way above than their actual price should be. I personally find the Nothing "OS" (it's just a UI) ugly. It's a mess of dotted, serif and sans-serif fonts over a monochromatic void. The whole thing looks rather inconsistent, but hey, that's their shtick, and if you don't like it you're uncool.

gens go from I to VII, V got android 15 updates but it was the last os update for them (so probably best to look for gen VI)
So i just learned that the iphone 16e (cheaper version of the 16 i got), gets 3 hours longer battery life than the more expensive version. What the fuck apple?
>>105573330it has less features, a cut down chip and a bigger battery
same reason a $150 Galaxy A15 lasts longer than the $799 Galaxy S25
>>105573444The only thing cutdown i see is like 1 gpu core. It's got a 12% bigger battery than 16 to boot, and the new modem uses less energy than 16. Just feels shitty.

No amount of shilling will stop us from making this general great again. We will call out false statements and not let poorfags trick people into thinking a horrible branded device for $400 could ever match a $1,200 flagship by Apple, Samsung or Google. It's popular in a region full of people living in poverty, yet here these clowns are coping and seething.
What's the point of releasing Android 16 without any of the features that they announced?
I don't know what to do. At first I wanted to get a Pixel 9 Pro XL, but then I realized that the battery was trash. Then I was thinking about getting the S24 ultra, but then I realized that the battery barely is any better.
I like the AI features of the Pixel and the OS and pen from the S24, but I want to keep the phone for at least 4-5 years and the battery issues don't exactly inspire confidence. So now I'm considering getting the OnePlus 13 or any other Chinese flagship, as their battery is much better, but there aren't any other features that I like about them

>>105558295>emulate PSP games on androidI could do it on poco x3 pro from 2021. PS3 games were also possible, if a bit of hit-or miss .... WINDOWS emulation was possible, although any exes would crash quite often unless its paint.exe or notepad.exe

My Samsung A52s has served me well these last 3 years but since the battery is getting weak and the old contract is over I have considered getting an upgrade. Should I go for the Pixel 9 or the Samsung S24? I don't want to break the bank for a S25 and I can get good deals for either these 2 models. I don't play on my phone, but I do use it a lot for reading and general day to day stuff. I am actually interested in the AI features of the Pixel. Which one should I go for?
>>105575683S24 Snapdragon (US/Korea) > Pixel 9 = S24 Exynos (Global)
Pixel 9 if you really like taking photos. The S24 base model camera (and S22, S23, S25...) is alright but not exceptional.
>>105575683pixel will have the better camera
>>105575886The carriers offers both at basically the same price.

Or did you mess about with the firmware? Or is it more likely a hardware defect? I'm going through the warranty process too, hopefully they accept it even though I might have caused it by flashing the stock ROMs.
Did you experiment with ROM flashing at all?
