Global sisters, why do we keep losing?

>>105594186 (OP)
My S23 as of two weeks ago (bought in October) started losing charge fast, and I mean FAST. 30 mins of listening (no video) something with newpipe and BT headphones with a bit of lazy browsing and messaging -- minus 6%.
What gives? No new apps, didn't update it (still not on OneUI7), didn't change any settings I can think of, nothing. Most of the apps are in sleep/deep sleep.

>presenting my masterpiece Liquid glASS good sirs!

>saar please stop buying apple get pooco or xiaomeme or lg or motroonola it's the best where i coming from!

Are you on 5G, or even 4G? Seems reasonable if so, my S23 does about the same when I'm on mobile data. Pretty bad for Wi-Fi though.

Are you dense? It's half a year old.
>>105594579
4G. It's been much better (I would say about 8%/hour) just two weeks ago.

I hope Apple lets you apply wallpapers from the Files app in the next few versions of iOS. Photos is practically useless to me with how barebones it is and Files makes my phone feel like the pocket Mac it should be.

>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.

>vivo, oppo, xiaomi, and poco are the best ignore all scientific data proving otherwise please enjoy small monetary savings and do the needful coping and seething

>this unknown lower quality device hated by reviewers and scoring lower on benchmarks is the best flagship available

I know this is the smartphone general but what tablets would you guys advise? I'm thinking about getting a tablet but it's difficult to decide on just one. I own an iPhone so the iPad is the no brainer option but there's some apps (particularly 4chan and piracy related ones) that are Android exclusive or just easier to sideload on Android.

>post benchmarks and reviews
>ignore giving (YOU)s to shills, poorfags, jeets and trolls
>call them out for pushing cheap devices popular in poor nations as being the "best"
>the jeets, shills, poorfags 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 here these clowns are coping and seething.

>having a device longer than 2 years like a broke bum and its a mid tier

nobody is claiming the cheaper phones are better
they are good enough
keep in mind not everyone in this thread has a job, show some solidarity for the neets and students that just want a functional phone, which remains functional for a few years and doesnt cost them their whole supply of neetbux

>>105594796
I got an ipad pro 11" about a year and a half ago after using android ones for a couple of years -- got a killer (50% off, literally) deal. It's been nothing but frustration since. Especially with Safari. I don't know how it's possible, but there are bugs with it and this one obscure website called "youtube". And judging from some posts, it's been an issue for years now.
Idea to swap volume buttons once you rotate the tablet to match volume graphics is a supremely retarded one even by Apple standards.
And, as you mentioned, a lot of apps are just plain absent. What a waste of great (M2) hardware.
If I would do this over again, I would get something from Samsung, with OLED screen, DeX and optional keyboard. Or maybe something "gaming" from Lenovo or Redmagic -- they usually have a fuckhuge battery, good CPU that would last you a couple of years more and a high-refresh screen, which is rather nice to look at.

Why is my iPhone from India so bad? Can anyone help me get the better Chinese one?

>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.

>>105595141
forgot pic

Maybe the Indians used to be better, maybe there was so many good programmers, that the Indian offset was negligible

Only devices that matter, any other phone is bought by impoverished uneducated consumers. Be smart by flagships from Apple, S amsung 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 S a arville.

>/spg tech saaaaarport 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

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

>>105595456
No, you're not autistic. For example, when I first moved my thumb across the edge of my Note 20 Ultra, I almost threw up when I felt the weird curve. You're perfectly normal.

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.

>remind the mid tier owners they have the oldest Android OS out
>poos, shills 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

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

I don't understand why people "need" or have the desire to buy a new phone. I'm still rocking a Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro with LineageOS installed and that came out in 2019. Even if my phone dies, get stolen or lost, I'd just replace it with a second hand phone released 2019 onwards.

Costs of repair and spare parts for the new phone aren't enough to justify the lack of peace of mind that comes with owning a very ancient stuff.
Good for you if you're content with a 2019 phone but the jumps in performance, features and battery I got going from 2016 flagship phone to 2020 midrange to 2024 midranger are insane.

>i'm not interested in any phone that's not pixel due to software
I'm telling you that basically every smartphone series has an issue that the manufacturer just refuses to address year after year. Base model iPhones still have 60Hz displays 5 years after even cheapo androids adopted 90 or even 120Hz. Samsung hasn't updated the main camera on the base S-series since the S22. That type of shit. I doubt Google will slim down the bezels on their a-series anytime soon, lest it cannibalizes sales from the regular Pixel.

Which iphone is the best rn
Currently im using 11 but like is it any interesting models to upgrade to?

Just moved from iPhone 11 to a s25u. Why is it when I browse x, the images are very pixelated until I actually open them? it's not like that on my iPhone

Did google roll some bullshit update? I'm getting a bunch of problems when trying to open apps where they cry as sideloaded, play pass expired or buy the app or you're offline errors, all for apps I own or are free or are offline and worked just fine before.
All the problems stop when I uninstall play store updates, so this is definitely some google bullshit.

Is there a 3rd party charger that works with fast charging on a Pixel as well as whatever battery features it uses? I'm sick of using the short stock charger that comes unplugged if you look at it wrong.

This is the sort of errors I get.
I'm on the latest version of a xiaomi.eu ROM for a poco x3 pro.
I know editing the metadata to make the installer app be google play or installing and reinstalling the apps works through google play works (probably so it makes that change to the metadata), but the problem started again after I ran sd maid, which presumably removed said metadata or like I said, by uninstalling google play updates.

It's not all apps that give me these errors, mostly apps I bought, but it does include some free apps and even free apps that had a play pass bonus from when I did the play pass trial.

I'll have you know I only started using Windows 10 a few months ago as well, before that I was still on 7 and the only reason I changed it is because I fucked up a driver installation which corrupted my windows install.

Oh wait, there was an app which was crashing when trying to load the redirect, that one doesn't work with 45.9.19-31, but works with 45.8.22-31.
Anyone has any similar issues?

Cause so far my options are to block google play from updating, or reconfigure my cleaner to see if it doesn't wipe out the metadata (though if the normal system cleaner wipes then this one is ogre), or dump google play for microg, or use gbox.

Good morning sirs. Is this phone /g/ approved? Please kindly revert.

Can't wait for NONE of the mainstream tech reviewers to ever talk about this phone. Perhaps ever GSMArena themselves won't publish a proper review. Bonus points if it's only available in Jeetstan and not in Europe.

You mean Poco X6 or Honor X6?

I finally got a good job after being a neet for a really long time and I’d like a decent phone for once in my life. I’d like a phone that would last me a long time without slowing down significantly (all the phones I’ve owned became annoying to use after 2-3 years). I guess my limit would be something like €1000 - €1300 as long as it’s something with long term software support and robust hardware to last me a while (at least 4 years).
I’d also like something not too big, maybe up to 6.5 inches cause I want to hold it comfortably while jerking off and I don’t like to have a tablet in my pocket.
No real preference for either iOS or android since I don’t really need any side loaded apps or piracy. Good battery is a must too, but I guess at that price range it should be a given.

>>105608698
iPhone 16/17 Pro :-)

What is the absolute bare minimum specs for a phone that isn't dogshit and doesn't lag? 6GB ram/128GB storage? I just want a bare minimum phone that browses the web, YouTube, calls and texts. I don't want to wait five seconds for Chrome or YouTube to open up and can last another five years. Second hand between $50 to $100.

>>105608698
>Good battery is a must too, but I guess at that price range it should be a given.
It really isn't. Phones are built with the "1 day battery" paradigm in mind. The idea is that you sleep at night, so you have at least 4-8 hours of downtime, per 24 hour period, that you can use to plug your phone in to charge. Basically no matter what phone you buy you can expect it to last from wake up to wake down no problems unless you're a giganeet and use it for more than 6 hours a day.
Anyways at that size your only options are the Google Pixel, Galaxy S (base models) and iPhone non-Plus/Max. Either of them will serve you fine. Anything else will be at least 6.67 inches big.

>>105608967
A used Galaxy S20 FE might be your best bet at that price range. S21 FE if you can find it for 100.
It's just too little money to get anything actually good and usable. Even a used iPhone 12 is about 200 bucks.

>>105609001
I'm not investing too much into this phone because I'm just using it as a backup and not as a daily driver. If I lose it or it gets stolen, I don't lose much. I won't even install any banking apps, social media, or anything like that, just the bare essentials to run on, but decent enough that it just won't shit the bed if I try to clear all apps and it freezes, for example.

>>105609050
I just checked local used prices for the 2 phones I suggested you and they've actually gotten more expensive over the last year for some reason. I can barely find S20 FE listings for under 100 bucks, and even that phone is out of support and with an aged chip that might lag in modern apps. I think you might be out of luck in the current smartphone market.

>>105609064

I just bought an S25 Ultra after using a sub-$100 Galaxy A Series for 5 years. I feel dirty spending so much on a phone.

>>105609764
You can keep it for 5 years or sell it anon

>>105609821
Yeah, but I already survived 5 years with a cheap ass phone. I keep thinking I could have just bought an A56 but I saw the 512GB S25 Ultra for less than $900 and I just impulse bought it. It's not even here yet and I'm already feeling buyer's remorse.

>>105609859
It's a great phone. Just try it. Definitely, it's gonna hold better in 5 years than your previous one

>>105609679
I don't know mom is not a heavy user I think 300/350 euro bucks of phone is too much for her. 200 Would have already a lot of stuff/horsepower she wouldn't be using.

Poco X6 is an older and somewhat basic phone. Shouldn't cost more than 200 euro. Look on Aliexpress.

>>105594186 (OP)
Should I get a 16 Pro Max or wait for the 17 Pro Max? Aluminium sounds like a big downgrade and the dual tone back is ugly as fuck imo.

X6 I used for almost a year now and it's been good. good camera good performance. OLED screen.

>>105610081
>>105609933
Yeah, the F2 treated me right so I know is gonna be good for her (although I don't use MIUI so idk about that) but I know for sure 300 is too much for her.
Will check ALI just in case but on Xiaomi store it was 300 or 350 eurobucks.

>>105610099
on Ali it's always cheaper. I got the 8gb for 180 last year.
and I got F6 12gb for 280 this year.

I bet it takes worse photos than your average guy's Smasnugg, Jewgle or Crapple phone, due to lack of modern powerful chip to do image processing and AI scene optimization shenanigans. Software and processing hardware is what powers modern photography, not high quality lenses or 1 inch type sensors.

you sound like a whiny bitch who got cucked by a spec sheet and thinks he’s Ansel Adams. It’s like you’re shooting blanks with an '05 flip phone. Bigger sensor + better light intake = more detail, less noise, even in low light. Your “modern powerful chip” falls flat when Huawei’s software, running on HarmonyOS 5.0, leverages AI for scene optimization, HDR, and noise reduction that beats Google’s Tensor and Apple’s A-series.
> Software and processing hardware is what powers modern photography, not high quality lenses or 1 inch type sensors.
Their XMAGE imaging pipeline uses AI-assisted composition, smart framing, and auto focal-length switching. It’s got a custom color palette for aesthetic control+A 1.5MP multispectral sensor for color accuracy that your iphone 16 Pro and smugshit s25u can only dream of. Cam tests show it holding against other superior Chinese flagships like Xiaomi 15 Ultra, Vivo X200 Ultra, Oppo Find X8 Ultra and Honor Magic7 pro with dynamic range hitting 16EV, that's a record for a smartphone.

The Poco has better Antutu scores if you care about gaming. It also has some problems with bad optimization and heating (especially when you are playing heavier games); the yellow leather version probably worsens this problem.

The Motorola has a worse battery life, is more expensive, and the camera is worse. Also, the curved display has a reputation for breaking easily.

You should take a look at other brands. If you decide that you want a Poco, they are going to launch their F7 phone next week; it is worth checking out.

they're afraid of losing customers to Apple, you know, the type of customer who's looking to buy a phone just for the AI garbage probably doesn't care who makes it, just who has the fanciest AI slapped on

>>105619672
Will look into these. Going to go with a post-paid plan.

Chances Liquid Ass can be turned off on the new iOS version? I was considering an iPhone sometime within the next 1-2 years, but the UI redesign is just straight dogshit.

Just bought myself a Poco F3. What am I in for?

maybe it's turned off on battery saver if you're lucky

Just in time for WW3, I guess. I kneel. This thread or a separate one? Maybe wait for the new spg thread as this one nears 300.

Alright lads, my company is about to liquidate and we are all losing our phones.
I need a cheap as fuck android that just doesn't crap out on me, decent battery.
Don't give a fuck about camera or storage capacity or android version.
I just need it to do Internet and maps and essential stuff.
What is a decent and inexpensive refurbished phone for less than 200 GBP (less than 100 if you can manage)?

If it can run pixel dungeon it's good enough

>>105621321
>pixel dungeon
First time I hear of this game and it's apparently free and open source? Sounds good, but the version I see on Google Play (Shattered) seems to have in-app purchases? I can't see a Github or anything to get the real version. Is it only on PC or something?

i need a cheap used chink phone primarily for playing chink gacha games like wuwa with good performance. looking for something with 100-200 usd price range. any recommendations?

>>105621411
The in app purchases are just a voluntary donation to the dev you can do. Shattered pixel dungeon is also the best version of the game as far as I know (just "Pixel Dungeon" is the original, but since it's open source it's got a bunch of forks).

>>105621482
Thank you I'll be checking it out.

I've had my a52 5g for about 4 years now and it works just fine. Battery life is good too. I use it for normie shit. Looking up stuff online, scrolling tiktok on the shitter, social media, spotify on the go, taking pictures and video, calls, messages. Normie shit. I don't need a new phone but i'm kind of wondering if switching to a better phone is going to make a difference for me.

So snapdragon 6gen4 is fast as 7gen3

Both have identical cores config (720 520) and GPU but 6gen4 have lower freq on CPU.

>>105621817
a brand new flagship would obviously feel much nicer, but it won't let you do anything "new", just scroll them tiktoks slightly smoother and have them look slightly nicer with a brighter screen

>>105621756
Literally better than Switch!

>>105621846
>as fast as

I just spent $800 on an s25. How fucked am I?

>for the device that is rumored to be priced at $800
Are Nothing truly that out of touch? I was preparing a response along the lines of "hey if it's 500-600 bucks or so it would be a decently premium sub-flagship device", think something like the Xiaomi 14T and 14T Pro, but apparently it's the same price as a base Galaxy S25 and significantly more expensive than a refurbished iPhone 15 Pro.

>>105622015
what controller is that? im looking for an affordable one with decent quality buttons to use with a poco x7 pro

>>105621883
figured as much. i just haven't been paying attention to phone tech in years and thought there might have been some new models that completely change the game.

>>105622395
The A52 is actually relatively up-to-date with the latest trends.
>120Hz 1080p+ AMOLED
>6-8GB RAM
>4k30 video (still a standout feature on budget phones)
>4500mAh battery (only slightly below average)
>under display FP scanner
>5G
It even has a 3.5mm jack and SD card slot. You'd be sacrificing those with a new phone, any phone.
Unless the A52 is too slow or doesn't have a strong battery anymore you probably shouldn't upgrade. Sure, it's not up to date on Android versions, but that's not a huge dealbreaker considering 99% of apps still support as old as Android 11 and 12, and the major important apps still work on 8.1 and newer, some even on 6 (!!)

>>105622523
>strong battery
4 hours of screentime and i'm at 60%, that's good right?

>>105622585
Depending on what you did for those 4 hours that's on par or better than most modern phones, actually.

>>105622600
bit of everything, tiktok on the shitter in the morning, 2 short-ish calls, took 4 pictures, some whatsapp messaging, checking the news, 2 hour bike ride(speedometer, location, spotify).

I noticed that Flexbooru from F-Droid doesn't load stuff from gelbooru anymore. gel must've changed something on their end, but since the app seems to be abandoned, I fear it will be permanently broken. Does anyone know what/why gel changed? I found another booru browser on F-Droid and that can't view gel either, but it was last updated 2 months ago, so if they need to change something for gel to work again it at least seems more likely they will.

Poco F7 series, mein Freund.
they're a bit more expensive on mi.de though than aliexpress.

I'm on Google Fi in the US with a Pixel 6a. I got zogged by having one with the fucked up battery. I'm going to have to get it replaced for free, they at least have the courtesy to fuck me softly.

It's left a bad taste in my mouth and I probably won't get another Pixel unless everything else is AIDs. Not looking to break the bank, just a phone for texting/web/music in car and photos/youtube occasionally

I was thinking an iPhone because I want something that just werks and has good battery life, but, the Liquid UI shit looks like the writing on the wall that Apple is also fucked at this point.

So what options do I have that aren't china-phones like Xiaomi. Samsung is one of the few phones "built" for Fi, but I haven't used a galaxy in years. Galaxy A55 looks alright?

>>105622585
thats pretty wild for a 4 year old phone
