Recommend me phones from 10 years ago that still work today.
I only use email, text and calls.
No apps, don't browse the web, just want an old phone with no AI-shittery.

>>105698808
Phones from 10 years ago won't get security updates anymore. Why not just get a cheap recent phone?

>>105698808
I gotchu bro
https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nYearMin=2015&nYearMax=2015

>>105698817
>No security updates
That's fine.
>Modern Phone
Show me a modern phone with no AI software or hardware.
That's why I need an old phone.

>>105698833
What do you think "recommendation" means? This isn't one.

>>105698837
Galaxy S6 with a replaced battery. If all you're going to use is the Phone app, the SMS app and whatever email client still works on Android 8.

>>105698808
If you need VoLTE because your carrier shut down 2G/3G, almost nothing will work. Even if the phone technically has VoLTE support it is unlikely that it works with your specific carrier.
Otherwise any (decent) smartphone will work fine.
>>105698837
>Show me a modern phone with no AI software or hardware.
Any Android phone running LineageOS
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

>>105698876
You think that disables the AI on the hardware level...why, exactly?

>>105698817
Because it's a schizo who don't actually need anything but shits up the thread and farming (you)s

>>105698895
That's not what's happening lol
Why are you so upset?

>>105698837
>That's fine.
So it would be fine if your phone became infested with malware/spyware?

>>105698911
NTA but if he uses it as a dumbphone+email it shouldn't matter. It's not like he's using banking apps or saving important data on it.

>>105698911
Not going to happen, so it's fine.

>>105698883
To my knowledge none of those phones have "hardware AI", and besides most of them are from before 2023.

>>105698911
Phones already ARE infested with malware and spyware.
Modern phones especially.

>>105698931
>those phones
What phones? You haven't specificed any particular models yet and nor have I.
You just said "Any Android phone". And that certainly includes ones with AI hardware.

>>105698942
I specified phones running LineageOS, which only a small subset of Android phones are compatible with. Most of them are old so of course they aren't going to have AI hardware shit.
Do you mind giving an example of phones with AI hardware?

Thats exactly whats happening. Once you stop getting replies to your current gimmick, you're gonna turn up with a new one and the cycle continues.

>>105698959
Anything with an Ai-powered NPU.

>>105698972
Forget to reply to a post?

>>105698917
>>105698927
What if there's a vulnerability in your email application and you receive a malicious email which exploits that vulnerability?

Or you could receive a malicious text message that exploits a vulnerability right?

>>105699116
>What if there's a vulnerability in your email application and you receive a malicious email which exploits that vulnerability?
>Or you could receive a malicious text message that exploits a vulnerability right?
Never happened before. Why would it happen now?
You seem very worked up about this. What's got you worried?

>>105698837
The AI stuff could be turned off.

>>105699274
How do you turn off a NPU and have your phone still function?
Go ahead.

>>105699286
Do you think the NPU is some sort of backdoor?

deos anyone know when the A35 5G is getting the android 15 one UI 7 update? or has it already happened, cause my phone keeps saying the latest update was in January

>>105699301
I'll answer you when you answer my question.
How do you turn off the NPU and have the phone still function?
Go ahead.

>>105699312
I wasn't the anon who asked that.

>S25 Ultra

>>105699123
>Never happened before.
Yeah and Covid-19 had never happened before 2019. There's a first time for everything.
>You seem very worked up about this. What's got you worried?
I'm not worked up, I just personally value security updates. If you want to take the risk of using an old smartphone without security updates then that's up to you. Personally I want to make sure I'm using a phone that still receives security updates.

>>105698706 (OP)
Is the battery swelling included as a feature this time?

>>105699319
Cute cope.

>>105699357
And I don't.

>>105698628
dunno man. I have 4 Xiaomi devices and on all of them it works.
is it hyoeros 2?
another thing he can try is allowing autostart and locking it with the padlock thingy. I haven't had the news to do that myself

Apple and Samsung won.
Pooco shills coping and seething.

Pooco lost.

>>105699716
Never buy a Poorco

>>105699708
Shills mad the world doesn't want cheapo mid tier trash. Apple and Samsung mog cheap phones.

>>105699741
shipments =/= sales

>>105699747
Don't (YOU) me you uneducated shill. Im posting graphs made by reputable sources and you're coping and Seething without backing up your claims. Jeets ruined spg with their Pooco shilling.

Benchmarks and reviews from reputable websites will be posted in SPG.
This is our only defense we have against people that come in to this thread and lie. It's nothing personal against anybody's favorite device. It's just the simple facts. Nobody is out to get you, but when you're openly coming into this thread and lying and then getting upset when you get called out for it that's just ridiculous.

>>105699747
Shipments means units sold right? Whereas sales might be a revenue figure. On revenue, Apple is probably top, because iPhones are expensive. But in terms of the number of smartphones shipped, that chart seems to show Samsung as the leaders.

>>105699778
Shipments =/= sales.

>>105699784
It's actually really interesting being the only person that is openly posting screenshots from two reputable websites consistently that is being targeted by multiple people that are posting false information. I wonder why? Shills are strange. This is smartphone general and I'm literally posting about phones. Imagine posting lies itt and expecting us to never check Versus or NanoReview. Never blindly trust these shills.

>>105699789
>Shipments means units sold right?
"Shipments" means units shipped. Sales is a different statistic.

>>105699796
>by multiple people that are posting false information
Where? I haven't seen that happen ITT.
Mind quoting the posts?

>SPG Tech Saarport Reminder

Notice all the lying scamming jeet shills itt. In there, smartphone comparisons they're comparing older and lower tier phones to their newer jeet poor "flagship" models. They are ruining the thread by calling factual information with graphs made by experts as false. These are Pooco shills from Jeetlandia. LOL, LMAO EVEN!

>the jeets, shills, poors and they/them crew start sperging

Anyone who says Versus or NanoReview is wrong is the problem. These lying shills are just trying to feel better about their poor budget friendly mid tier device and refuse to accept the facts.
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. Benchmarks and reviews will keep getting posted.

>>105699823
Don't (YOU) me with 70iq drivel. You jeets ruined spg with lies and shilling. It's pathetic.

>>105699838

have a good day.

>>105699838
So you can't do it? Thanks for confirming your lied.

>>105698706 (OP)
Is there any way to search for phones with this [insert name here] or stronger chip?
GSM only gives me the exact chipset filter and not equal or above.

I just opened up my pixel 8a to replace the screen that cracked... now that I got it open, is there anything I can upgrade (storage maybe?) before I close it up for hopefully good?

>>105699902
Try google

>>105699823
No one. Xe/Xhe is just prolly doing a monologue just to fake a situation where xe/xhe dunks on the beneficiaries of democratization of luxury.

>>105699916
You mean strawmanning an argument? Yeah.

Where can I learn more about custom roms? I checked the links in the opening post but there is no detailed guide.

Jeet shills lie in here and ruined SPG with horrible English and they can't even comprehend anything posted. Spg is ruined by poos.

>>105699866
You're a lying shill for sure see:

Why not? Can't do it?

>>105700085
Right here I'll reply to you with the proof again you uneducated shill. You keep ignoring it or don't understand simple English. You're ruining SPG with your 70iq lies and nonsense. We will keep exposing you with facts. You can keep ignoring it, but we will keep correcting you and all your lying Jeetlandian scammers.

3rd time I posted a example lying shill. If you can't understand simple English that's your fault jeet. No one is buying Pooco.

>SPG Tech Saarport Reminder

Ignore giving (YOU)s to lying uneducated shills.
If they show signs of poor English and show signs of low 70 or under IQ don't respond to them. These are trolls, liars or uneducated saars. Just keep posting the truth. Some come in here and can't even comprehend simple English or conclude what a reputable statistically proven graph is trying to say. Best to ignore these upset liars. They are mad nobody wants a xiaome/pooco.
We will make SPG great again.

*WHEEEEEEEEZE*
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH

Holy fuck.

>>105700172
Another lying jeet shill caught in the wild. Your opinions are not facts. Until a website posts reputable information confirming your nonsense you're wrong.
Pixel watch isn't above a iWatch lmao.
Samsung is second to Apple in market sales globally. Apple is number 1.
No one is buying Huawei. It's not even known in North America. Banned for spying purposes.

You jeets ruined SPG and we will keep posting the facts and you can keep crying and complaining. Deal with it.

I'm coping here after switching to a pixel 9, that shit's going into the dumpster in september

>>105699991
I guess XDA but better is using a translator and googling "(phone model) 4pda" they have threds for that stuff.
but really only ones I'd bother with are lineage and crdroid.

Spg doesn't like the facts and truth being posted about smartphones. lol, lmao even. You posers only have one possibly new handset. Stop it. Can't wait to upgrade to the iPhone 17 Pro Max, Galaxy S26 Ultra and the Pixel 10 Pro XL. I upgrade every year with cash in hand. I'll never buy some mid tier cope phone only poors want, because it's all they can afford. It's not a problem for me. I'm blessed and I like smartphones.

Apple and Samsung won.

Reminder to keep your phone screens clean and especially make sure your screen protector is applied properly and is clean too. It lowers the quality of what you're seeing if the screen protector has pubes and air bubbles under it. You don't wanna be embarrassed like this jeet guy:

>Pixel 9a with Graphene OS

>>105700302
I'm here wondering what's the point of dealing with Android?

With iOS 26 seems like Apple is completely opening up APIs to its search functions, basically you have Google Lens, that Pinterest Lens shit, and any image search you want while Google is now LARPING as 2016 Apple only proposing its services.
Same for LLMs, Automations, and Spotlight.

>>105700338
Have to be this way because of the lying scamming jeets coming in here coping and seething about their phones being horrible. It's not a war, I'm here to call out misinformation. These liars and tricking and scamming people. They are most probably paid shills. They come from a very poor place where people are famous for scamming other people for a small amount of rupees.

The only phones that matter.

>>105700429
They've changed that control centre thing in the latest beta so the background is now blurred more, making it easier to see the controls

Look it up if you don't believe me, I read it

>>105700464
That's a pretty cool UI design. Certainly takes a lot more work and talent than a flat design.

>>105700134
And this is "proof" of what exactly?
Be specific.

>>105700507
You read it woooooow. I own a iphone 16 Pro Max, Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and a Pixel 9 Pro XL.
The new iOS 26 beta 2 didn't make the ui better. Jeets ruined it. It's horrible. Lmaooooooo. It's like Motorola and Boeing. Just another company ruined by hiring lower quality people to save money.

>>105700540
If you can't figure it out you're like really slow bro and now you're wasting my time or a troll. Don't (YOU) me anymore.

>>105700592
Wow you're really uneducated. The anon caught someone lying, who I'm starting to think is you. The anon posted a fake picture of a ugly fat girl taking three fake selfies and claiming the Nothing Phone selfie beat the selfies using a iPhone 16 Pro Max and Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. The anon posted pictures showing how so many people have posted selfie pictures and front facing camera videos using iPhone 16 Pro Max and Galaxy S25 Ultra devices proving the anon posting the Nothing phone selfie was lying and is a shill. You're either him or very slow. It's sad it took two people to explain this to you. You should not use this website. You don't even comprehend simple English.

>>105700592
Here let me also visually show you too since you're very uneducated.

Pic rel was the lying anons post. Fake selfie.

>>105700592
Here's the response where myself and many others called the anon out for being a lying shill posting a fake obviously edited selfie. This was posted a a reply to your question of needing evidence 4 times and this makes it a Fifth time. If after this example you're confused or arguing against the fact we have lying shills in the thread than either you're one of them or very slow.

>>105700770
>>105700754
>>105700697
>Still no proof
Why do you think this is "proof" anon? Be specific.

>>105700900
Wow the Indian education system really is that bad! Even with a visual explanation to go alongside multiple written examples the shill lying jeet wants to play confused.
The lying anon selfies were fake and blurry. Many examples of selfies way more clear and having a higher quality proved the anon was posting a fake edited photo to make Nothing Phone selfie look better than the Apple and Samsung selfie.
Wow. You're actually for real. Lol, lmao even.

>>105700938
>He still hasn't said why he thinks it's definitive "proof" of anything

How was that proven? Be very very specific.
Again, no definitive proof of ANYTHING has been posted ITT. Especially by you, retard.
Go ahead.

>>105700975
Yea this confirms it you're the Nothing Phone shill that lies. Stay mad you got exposed.
Moron look here:
>>105700754

>>105700972
And yet there is no definitive proof one way or the other...Strange!
Why won't anyone prove their claims to be true? That's all I want.

Post the proof you coward.
>shill
Wrong. Sorry!

>>105701007
You're the Nothing Phone shill that got exposed as a uneducated jeet liar lmaoooo. Pic rel is the fake photo. Cry more kid.

Now where's your proof of your claims? Why can't you prove your own claims to be true?

I'm still waaaaaaaiiiiiiiting :3

>>105701067
I already won the argument by posting proof. You keep trolling and aren't bringing any facts to the discussion. You're a poor butt hurt little kid lmao.

>>105701065
And you think this is proof of...What, exactly?
Go ahead. Be Specific. Tell me exactly how this "proves" anything.
Tell me how this is "definitive". Tell me how this would hold up in a court of law.

Otherwise, you have no proof.
And I win :3

>>105701080
Make educated posts first you 70iq drivel posting scammer.

>>105701056
Why do you guys think these easily photoshopped images "prove" anything? I'm with the autist on this one.

>>105701080
You lost this discussion because you showed 0 intellectual information or proof to confirm you're not lying or trolling.

>>105701079
You literally have not posted proof of a single thing.
If you aren't going to prove your own claims to be true, then concession accepted.

Can't wait to see you throw a tantrum for another hour :3

What "discussion"? I asked you to provide proof of your claims.
You cried and shit and pissed yourself becasue you couldn't do it.

Not my problem you're a literal baby.

Uh-oh, stinky baby!
If you want to win you need proof.
Until then, I win without even trying. ;3

Look at this retarded jeet crying he got caught lying lmaoooooo. The evidence is crystal clear the Nothing phone fat chick selfies post was edited and fake. Simple Google search comes up with way more clear and detailed selfies by the 16 Pro Max and s25 ultra. This is just a jeet with a $300 Poco crying in the thread.

>>105701150
Baby gonna cry?

Wow you saars really are this uneducated. What a embarrassment for all indians. The jeet schizo was right these are subhumans that are scamming and lying itt.

>>105701173

This is why they should range ban India. We won't have to deal with these lying scamming sirs.

If he isn't going to post proof, I win by default.
Feels good to be the king.

Fresh out the box iPhone 16 Pro made in india damaged. Many unfortunate cases.
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. You should avoid all phones from places like this and shills who say otherwise.

I like Fairphone, but nobody's going to be switching to a modular phone unless there's actual standards. Once Fairphone's modules stop being sold, the phone is living on borrowed time just like an average iPhone or Android phone. Once security updates stop coming to it, there's no Linux to switch to for extended support.
Smartphones are cool but they suck hard. Desktop PCs are in a much better state and even laptops have better lifespans due to reaping some of the perks from desktops.
But hey they're not even sold in my country so its not like I'd be able to buy one regardless.

>>105703606
>there's no Linux to switch to for extended support.
Ubuntu Touch usually supports Fairphones at least and they have the Linux patchset for the 6 already out and trying to mainline

>>105702198
A Swiss friend of mine is considering it, because it's made in Europe unlike literally every other phone, including iPhones and Pixels, that are made somewhere in Asia. Also because the battery is easy to replace, but mainly because it's the true white man's phone. Right?

>>105704497
I'm tempted but its way larger than my current iphone 13 mini
want to see how linux alternative OS support pans out first, maybe some reviews
otherwise specs are solid enough for me to use it as an actual phone for a long time

>>105704513
Yeah, my friend has the same concern. He ran an iPhone 4S until late 2021, when it could no longer open the websites and apps he needed for daily essentials. He got a Galaxy S21 because it was the smallest phone his carrier offered that's not an iPhone (he hates modern iOS) or by a Chinese brand, and is still using it to this day.

Spg is full of lying shills. Versus and NanoReview posts make them mad. Global smartphone sales stats make them even more angrier.

My iPhone 16 Pro Max is my daily. Don’t get me wrong I really enjoy my Galaxy S25 Ultra and Pixel 9 Pro XL devices too. Can’t wait to get the new phones when they come out! iPhone 17 Pro Max and the Pixel 10 Pro have leaked so far, but not the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Will be getting them once they drop! Also excited for my new car I bought today to be delivered tomorrow! I love new phones and new cars. :)

Is pic rel true F7 bros? Another anon posted that. If so than the Pooco is way slower than I expected. I’ll keep my S25 desu.

Pixel 10 Pro leak from Jeetlandia.
On your Android I suggest you download and use DevCheck Pro. You can easily find the apk for the pro version.

>>105704435
they're just like poco phones

>>105705516
So they are low cost mid tiers. F7 let me down I’ll keep my s25!

Total smartphone sales for 2024! Let’s see what 2025 looks like once the year ends. So far similar if you check. I really enjoy my iPhones and Galaxys so I see why they always win. They have budgets and flagships everyone enjoys. :)

Don’t listen to anyone saying nasty names and trolling you. Check the benchmarks and reviews. Samsung is a great choice and typically is above any of the other recommendations here. Which one were you looking to get? What other options were you looking at as well? We sadly have some people here who won’t use logic and reasoning to help you so be careful.

>>105705527

Google Pixel 9 Pro XL did better than the Pooco F7 on Versus and NanoReview!

Think the Pixel 9 pro will go on sale when the 10 comes out? Or will I need to wait another year for the 11 to come out first?
8 pro is $400 off and comes with a free watch and case but it's hueg.

>>105706668

That’s a great deal anon, but the Pixel 10 Pro is coming out next month so if you can wait until end of August you will see better deals on the 9 model!

>>105706695
I'm a try and hold off until August yeah, current phone is dying after 5 years but it was a budget holdover after my last phone got destroyed in a bicycle accident anyway. Shit keeps freezing up and stuttering now. The 9 pro looks great and the size is near perfect for me, only real complaint is no 3.5 but I've heard great things about the $10 Apple dongle.

why did 200 posts get deleted?

Alright I've had enough with trying to type on glass, it's unbearable. How the fuck can I carry a keyboard and use my phone in day to day activities? I won't always have a table handy to set down a keyboard but I don't have enough hands to hold up a phone and a separate keyboard and type on it at the same time.

>>105706831
Exactly! I was here earlier and my stuff was deleted too! All I did was post about smartphones!

Benchmarks and reviews from reputable websites will be posted in SPG.
This is our only defense we have against people that come in to this thread and lie. It's nothing personal against anybody's favorite device. It's just the simple facts. Nobody is out to get you, but when you're openly coming into this thread and lying and then getting upset when you get called out for it that's just ridiculous.

It's actually really interesting being the only person that is openly posting screenshots from two reputable websites consistently that is being targeted by multiple people that are posting false information. I wonder why? Shills are strange. This is smartphone general and I'm literally posting about phones. Imagine posting lies itt and expecting us to never check Versus or NanoReview. Never blindly trust these shills.

>post benchmarks and reviews from Versus and NanoReview
>expose all lying shills and trolls for misinformation
>call them out for pushing stuff only scammers would call the "best"


Anyone who says Versus or NanoReview is wrong is the problem. These lying shills are just trying to feel better about their poor budget friendly mid tier device and refuse to accept the facts.
No amount of shilling will stop us from making this general great again. We will call out false statements and not let scammers trick people into thinking a horrible branded device for $400 could ever match a $1,200 flagship by Apple, Samsung or Google. Don’t give the people (YOU)s they are looking to get you banned. Benchmarks and reviews will keep getting posted.

Shill stop making troll posts. You can like your mid tier phones but you’re ruining the thread with your hate for the s25 ultra. Grow up.

My iPhone 16 Pro Max, Galaxy S25 Ultra and Pixel 9 Pro XL are so amazing! Can't wait to upgrade to the iPhone 17 Pro Max, Galaxy S26 Ultra and the Pixel 10 Pro XL. I upgrade every year with cash in hand. It's not a problem for me. I'm blessed and I love smartphones.

Im gonna import the x200 ultra. You're gonna see this exact camera sensors 3 years down the line on scamsung and crapple. I much prefer xiaomi's leica color science, the 1 inch tyoe main sensor, and its versatile telephoto focal lengths, but I CAN NOT stand their god awful software

Apple makes their software and hardware so you’ll find a lot more visual consistency compared to say Samsung, which heavily skins Android but then you have Google’s apps which have their own design language.

>>105707887

Samsung, Google and Apple literally take better pictures.

Reminder to keep your phone screens clean and especially make sure your screen protector is applied properly and is clean too. It lowers the quality of what you're seeing if the screen protector has pubes and air bubbles under it.

the OS is aggressive and kills background apps very quickly. Great for battery life but missing out messages and mails is very annoying.
You can set the apps to unrestricted manually, that fixed things for me

Is there any app that can properly track battery usage? My S25 is definitely lying to me about it

>>105709178
Sounds normal if you also had mobile data, bluetooth and location services turned on. Turn those off, use Wi-Fi instead, and enjoy sub-1% idle drain per hour.
If you REALLY value having no idle drain you should've gotten an iPhone. That's really the only thing iPhones excel at.

>>105709220

huawei/honor are good phones

>>105709225
It's just what I've heard nigga. iOS doesn't support background activity (if it's not on the screen or in a live notification it ain't happening) so idle drain is supposed to be minimal. I'm NOT talking about overall battery life of iPhones.
I'm a Samsung user and live with the idle drain, hence the tips I was able to give, it's just how it is.

I'm not about to dig through hours of mark ass brownie videos to list every timestamp where he says iPhones have the lowest idle drain among smartphones. It's what I decide to believe in. I do not have an iPhone so I cannot test that personally. Like I said, from what I've gathered by researching phones over the years, standby drain seems to be the ONE thing iPhones excel at over Android phones.

NTA but when I had an iphone 13 it would drain at most 1% overnight while I was asleep. I suspect iOS could just be lying in that specific case though, like it actually drained 5% but wasn't showing it.

>>105710151
I'm not a troll and we have never argued about that.
>>105710227
Oh, are you the guy who couldn't prove the photo to be true?
I thought it would have been easy to do.

What happened to chink phones pastebin? Is there any recent update to that?

How the fuck did we get to the point where old phones are better than new ones. You can only find phones with Jack, IR, FM Radio and MicroSD expansion on the lowest end.

>>105710956
And no Ai.

>Samsung S25's camera is literally worse than my S20's in terms of hardware specs, has no SD card, and has the same charging speed as its 5 year old predecessor
What the fuck is the point of (((upgrading))) anymore besides Samnigger not giving me security patches so I can consume their inferior jeeted AI garbage??

>>105707957
>take better pictures.
Are you a child? Bigger sensor = more capability. Processing and color science are only a second fiddle

A powerful chip to do performance heavy tasks? Play the latest games? Render 8K video?
Don't buy a flagship phone if you don't need to do demanding tasks, just stay with your current phone or sidegrade to a modern midranger.

>>105711069
No one renders video on their phones, same for the demanding tasks. Also you can run any game with a 250$ from 3 years ago with no issues.
Literally no need to consoom.

>>105711069
>A powerful chip to do performance heavy tasks
irrelevant.

>>105711091
>>105711095
Then just don't buy a new phone? You're free. No need to spend $800 every 1-3 years on a phone.

>>105711069
>irrelevant irrelevant its all Irrelevant
>pls redeem new phone to play heavy games sir even doe theres barely any space and no SD card but thats irrelevant benchod bastard
My S20 runs any Androshit gacha game btw, not that I'd play any

>>105711119
I already don't.
I'm still using a pixel 4a until it breaks/becomes unusable.

I just can't imaging doing any "performance heavy tasks" on a telephone instead of a PC.

>>105709575
>пoкaзaт
paбoтaeт нa мoeй мaшинe :^)

just use different font or switch to English.

>>105711131
Especially a telephone with no expandable storage lol.
Where are you saving your files? The Cloud? PFFT.

Just got an X7 Pro (top spec for 260€) and it's alright. Some stupid UI limitations, like not being able to set the layout to 5x7 or being forced into split notification shade, stand out immediately, but otherwise, it's the same good value chinkshit xiaomi has always been.

>>105711091
>Also you can run any game with a 250$ from 3 years ago with no issues.
You would be right if it's not the gigagacha games.

>>105711119
The point is that I want to upgrade to a more powerful chipset and better camera without giving up essentials that existed since forever, there's a five year difference between S20 and S25 yet the only thing that S25 have over S20 is more performance and security updates, hell even the fucking screen is a dowbgrade from S20, compare that to the 5 year difference between S20 and S6 or S7. Even if I shill out more money and get the S25 Ultra Pro Max whatever I'll still have to give up SD card slot.

>>105711192
Don't do it then. Just upgrade what you've got.
Repair the screen, get a new battery, whatever you need to do to make it usable.
Don't buy products you don't want. That's how you end up with ONLY products you don't want on the market.

>>105709700
they're cheap and kinda work

>>105711192
>screen is a dowbgrade from S20
S20 can only do either 1080p120 or 1440p60. Starting with the S21 Samsung decided most users would prefer 1080p120, so they kept that as the default.
You can get the S25+ for 1440p120. You can get the 512GB variant and never need an SD card. If you want to transfer data you can use a usb-c flash drive, SSD, SD card reader, etc.
Sounds to me like you don't really want a new phone. Just don't get one.

>>105711241
>He thinks lugging around an external SSD is more convenient than an SD card
Why?

>>105711241
>most users
Most users are retarded cattle for accepting the state we're in
>You can get the S25+ for 1440p120. You can get the 512GB variant and never need an SD card.
My music library alone is about 300GB, and the fuckers charge 300-400$ extra for 1TB option so fuck that
>>105711241
>If you want to transfer data you can use a usb-c flash drive, SSD, SD card reader, etc.
I don't want to transfer files I just want more storage with the jewish nonsense above
>Sounds to me like you don't really want a new phone. Just don't get one.
I was planning to, I was aiming for SD 8 Elite to try some stuff but now I don't

>>105711328
Your only options left seem to be either Sony Xperia or Motorola Edge.
Though I would get my copium in hope that Samsung would stop being retarded with S26 and A57.

Is there a phone for a straight white man?

everyone knows that a solution for no headphone jack is usbc dongle and sdcard port is a usbc reader. they come to spg to argue. they aren't interested in discussion that leads to a purchase of a new device

look at the trolls and shills lying itt.

>>105711748

Why would I carry 2 extra things around with me, when I could just get a suitable phone that does everything I want?

The only phones that matter.

Why is my iPhone from India so bad? Can anyone help me get the better Chinese one? Why can’t India stop messing things up for everyone? :(

anybody even buying new xperias?
pics with timestamps welcome

>>105711802
Fresh out the box iPhone 16 Pro made in india damaged. Many unfortunate cases.
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. You should avoid all phones from places like this and shills who say otherwise.

>>105711802
>>105711824
>Be Apple
>Open production in Jeetlandia
>Horrible manufacturing
>50% becomes unusable
>Let sirs design the new iOS26 UI

Great news Apple allows you to refuse indian made Apple iPhones and in store you can exchange them for the better manufactured ones from China.
Pic rel is how to spot the one you never want.

something under 600$ want to upgrade from pixel 6a?

>>105711824

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and the iPhone 16 Pro Max take amazing pics and vids.

>105711977
we are on One UI 8 with Android 16 on s25 ultras unlike others that have to wait

>>105712031
got android 16 on my pixel 9 pro xl too. more important devices get faster updates

>>105699286
NPU's have been a thing long before the current form of AI were a thing.

>>105712069
Oh yeah? Elaborate.
I'm genuinly interested.

I'm thinking of going back to iPhone. Samsung's a scam considering a lot of chinkphones offer better specs.

>>105711142
That's random bug, usually happens after update

we need to go back

>>105712429
I wish those popup camera were implemented more instead of those stupid notches
They still annoy me

>i dont promise btw* ;)

Why do you love snoy xo much? It's unrepairable shit with screens just falling off.

They can't fix glue for 15 years.

>>105712677
Mostly weebs and muh headphone jack.

I've lived under a rock mostly and in my head only samsung phones and iphones exist. I vaguely remember some other phones like sony's and the cheap and/or chinese stuff. I see some talks about Pixels here. I probably won't buy any of the top expensive phones, but are there any other good alternatives with smooth, optimised software? I use phones for regular phone stuff, but I also appreciate a good camera. I hate too many things popping up and when it works slow even though it shouldn't.

What are the drawbacks of having a chinese phone with google services/play store instead of global?

I know gemini/assistant for example won't work as intended.

>>105712859
>good camera
depending on your standards it might turn out that NO phone has a good camera
>won't buy any of the top expensive phones, but are there any other good alternatives with smooth, optimised software
that's exactly the reason people buy high-end phones in the first place
if you get a $300 phone, you kind of expect it to have a mediocre camera and be slow at some tasks. hell even $1000 phones can be shit in some aspects - there is no objectively perfect/good phone

Is it just me, or do phones not matter in adulthood?
Like, when I was in HS it was very important to me what phone someone had, and what phone I had and how people viewed me for it, but as an adult? I don't give a rat's ass if my coworkers have expensive flagship phones or cheap chinkware. I know they can afford any phone they'd like, it's just that they don't care.
As a teen it was different. People with iPhones had a rich person aura, even if it was their dad who bought it for them. I dunno, I can't explain it properly.
In general things mattered more back then. Everything's all the same as an adult. I don't think less or more highly of someone depending on their PC specs, while back in HS it was a constant competition who had the better PC and could run more games or run games better.

>>105706250
>>105706618
based the Samsung, Google and Apple device benchmarks are bringing the truth out and exposing the liars itt. Always check the phones on Versus and NanoReview.

>>105713330
does this thing even have OIS? It's not even waterproof anymore and has no headphone jack while also having a smaller battery than the first Titan

Is there updated chink phone list anywhere? Or maybe combined one? Or just using kimovil is way to go?

>>105713412
Kimovil and GSMArena and just browse what different brands are offering

>>105713397
for me it is a replacement for Blackberry Key2LE which still works ok, but has android 8. I just use it as second phone. because it is just second phone i dont care much about ois, headphone jack.. yeah i bet it will be just splash resistant and not fully waterproof

>>105713760
>Blackberry Key2LE
I am surprised yours is still usable. My Keyone became incredibly slow and on it's last OS update it received and totally unusable

>>105710867
Nope
It's dead

>>105713760
>>105713783
Always kinda wanted a Blackberry.
Physical Keyboard >>> Touchscreen Keyboard

Is the Pinephone any good? Didn't even know Linux based phones existed until now.
Saw you can get a keyboard-case, which is pretty charming.

>>105714086
most lilely not.

>>105706105
When is this S26U releasing?
I don't wanna buy the S25U because it still uses old battery tech and the S24U is too old to buy right now.

Photo taken with Motorola Moto G15. Second one with "Dynamic" filter from the Google Photos app.

>>105714416
great photos, anon :^)
