Two men on a motorcycle drove next to me and stole my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and then threw it on the ground after realising it wasn't an iPhone. Why did they do that? Is my phone not worth anything at all?

Are the Nothing phones any good? what about cmf? do they support Lineage os? Honestly I don't care at all about stuff like cameras, nfc or whatever other gimmick normalfags like nowadays, I just want a simple phone with decent to good quality for a fair price. But from personal experience it seems most "budget friendly" phones are mediocre, almost forcing you to spend more cash if you want a good one.

Anon, just learn some self control. I'm not trying to sound like a smart ass, but hiding drugs from a junkie isn't going to "cure" him from his addiction. Unless you have a very important reason to use social media (e.g. maybe you use the FB marketplace or sell stuff online), then just stop using it, as shrimple as that. Using a blank wallpaper or making your screen greyscale is just a meme, just find something interesting to fill in the "boring" parts of your day, get busy with something productive, take a walk, idk. It's not about not using your phone, but to use it responsibly.
Is it true that iPhones are considerably more secure out of the box compared to Samsung phones in the same price range?

Fine, I just find the "problem" stupid and wanted to give some tips. As for your original question: no, there aren't because those features are part of the apps design. It's like asking for a BIcycle with a single wheel. I don't know about Instagram, but for Youtube you could use Newpipe (or a fork) and disable the trending/recommended sections. I'm not sure if mobile browsers still support extensions, but another option would be using the Youtube website with the "Unhook" extension.

>do flagships have better build quality than shit tier phones
Potentially? I've heard the USB port is a notable weak point on ALL Samsung phones, from the cheapest A0-series to the flagships. I've had an S23 for 1.5 years and no problems with the build quality "so far", but my father had an A70 with port issues and a falling backplate towards the end of it's 5th year, then he had an A34 once again with port issues (says it's wet when it isn't), and a friend of mine had an A33 that he got rid of in favor of a Moto Edge 50 Neo because the port straight up stopped working.

It is my understanding that there are two commonly-understood uses of the term "unlock" in regards to smartphones (android more specifically):
>1. Carrier unlocking, meaning you can use a phone with any carrier
2. OEM unlocking, which enables things like installing custom roms and rooting and whatnot.
Are these in fact two *different* things? Or am I mistaken and they are one and the same?

Android forces companies to open source their stuff eventually so they benefit from those eyes, even private companies that have their own version of Android.

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.

Any recommended radio apps? I just downloaded RadioDroid, but maybe there's something else I should've gotten instead.
My dad's gonna buy me a new phone soon, need some advice from you jeets and niggas, he's probably not gonna get me a flagship but around the price of a midrange and close to flagship. So something like the S24 FE would be the ceiling. I don't play games I just mostly browse and watch youtube so a good battery is a must, nfc, and I like my phone not to spy on me all the time or atleast feel like its spying on me. So I need a clean OS, I like OneUI, not too sure about poco f7 or x7 pro because of the ads and all that, but I like their performance/spec and the biiiig battery life they offer compared to s24fe and a56. I know you can disable the ads and stuff but will they still pop up even though I disabled them? I've never owned a chinkphone in my life I've been samsung's most loyal customer. My current phone is a s20+ btw. Only thing I want better from my own phone is the battery (and I already went trough a battery replacement recently).

No sure if this is a good place to ask, but I've been thinking of installed another OS on my phone, but I've read Revolut (which I need) has been blocking their app on their phone, but this was back in December. Has this been fixed meanwhile?

My samsung smartphone displays a warning about a wet charging port since a year ago but i can ignore it while its on, but i ran out of battery and now it doesnt let me charge because of that warning, it does little vibrating and buzzing after like 5 seconds of charging and i cant get it to be on now
What do?
Also any rugged smartphone recommendations?

A56 is good
A55 is also good, maybe even better in some aspects like battery life, and should be found for way cheaper than the A56
S24FE is the best choice if you can find it for a similar price to the A56
The A30-series is okay. The A34 was the best one in recent years, but it's way too old now, unless you can snag one for 100 bucks or less.

It's almost twice more powerful overall according to most benchmarks (3 times as powerful in 3DMark benchmarks specifically, for what it's worth), so maybe? Only if you really need the extra power for something like gaming. Don't spend the extra cash just because "woaw! such a good deal!!!"
>>105775440
i probably won't be gaming on it at all. i mainly just want a good camera. other than that i guess the sound quality, the screen quality and the battery life would matter. do you know if any of those are much better? if not it's probably not worth the money.

Camera should be better. Screen and everything else probably marginally better or the same, except battery life which seems to be slightly worse than the A56. Which is already slightly worse than the A55.

Nta but the A series usually have subpar hardware not limited to the cpu. The A55 is incapable of taking RAW pictures but was the first Samsung to have seamless update feature that the s24 and older series didn't have.
Looks like a tough call to me (S series hardware vs A series pricing) so I can't help you on this part.

Even with flagships there's always compromises. Base model S series have very small batteries, so "acceptable" battery life overall and pitiful battery life when you're actually stressing it with gaming or GPS navigation + mobile data + high brightness.

Some of the things that bother me with my current phone:
- not that bright
- no wireless charging
I would like the new phone to have these things improved. I would like to buy used

Had to spend a whole week to remove all the bloatware and tracking, uninstalling apps, removing permissions, setting up restrictions, setting up DNS blocklist with NextDNS. Now after all this effort I have a phone that doesn't phone home that much (except Google services for work related apps inside my work profile), all that for the low low price of 250β¬ (have the 12GB RAM 512GB storage Poco F6).
Camera is good, screen is good, lacks features I would love like auto lock when it detects a pickpockets snatching my phone like what motorola does.

Getting some buyers regret from the iPhone 15 I bought a year ago. The phone is great, easily the best I've ever used, but no Firefox extensions, sideloading sucks because I have to remember to connect to wifi for SideStore so I can refresh (I can only use 5 sideloaded apps and the selection is much smaller than F-Droid on Android).
It's not a bad phone, it's the best iPhone I've ever used. But still Apple's walled garden sucks.

never. it is never a good time to buy an itroon device.
I've just received an email from Google that they will be issuing an update to my pixel 6a to reduce the battery life for safety reasons.
They have offered 3 forms of compensation:
1. A free battery replacement
2. $100 cash
3. $150 in Google store credit
On reddit it has been confirmed that the $150 store credit cannot be used alongside other store discounts, however does anyone know if I can use this along with elevated trade in values? What I'd like to do is trade in my 6a for a pixel 10 and also apply my $150 store credit to get it for cheap, but it's unclear to me if I can do that.

oneplus is releasing the nord 5 next week, looks like it's going to have a Sony camera sensor and big battery, which I like, but I've never touched Oxygen OS, a lot of people seem to say it's gone downhill quality-wise and that it compares unfavorably with samsung's OS...
any concrete feedback on Oxygen OS /spg/?
in the short experience I've had, I disliked how samsung had third-party shit pushed at the system level like the side button only working with bixby (you can now change it apparently) or the security settings warning me I'm unsafe because I didn't activate mcafee (which can't be uninstalled)
I have the s25, 25 plus and nord 5 in my sights so far
samsung has great performance and stability (in my short experience) but also meh battery and the above issues but if the 1+ is buggy and cheap then it might not be worth it

I also got the same mail today and did the store credit thing. YMMV since I'm in the EU, but mine says the following:
- 180 euro credit (no idea why suddenly 30 extra), only usable on phones in the shop
- Code is valid for 1 year
- Explicitly states that you can combine it with other offers
I'm thinking of going for a 9a myself. According to their checkout I can get 94 euro trade-in for my 6a, and they have a thing going right now where you get 35 euro extra off + a case. So combined with the 180 from the code, that'd mean a 9a for 235, which seems like decent deal.

If you want to go for the 9a then do this, but if you're willing to spend a little more they always boost trade in values for new devices, which is why I'm going to try going for the 10.

Look the unfortunate reality is that everything else is worse. Samshit comes bundled with unremovable malware, Motorola doesn't update their phones, and the chink brands don't have full support for Verizon.
At least with pixels I have the option of flashing grapheneos and they don't come bundled with three different app stores.

...like seriously what the fuck?
and it doesn't make any fucking sense also because there are a dozen different roms like grapheneos that are available for all sorts of phones (e.g. /e/os, you can even buy a fairphone with it preinstalled)
grapheneos is only a valuable thing if you are a complete privacy schizo or targeted individual, to have it "no cme bundled with three different app stores" any rom will suffice, you don't need graphene on a pixel specifically, you haven't even done any research on the thing that's so important to you.

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.

you can read all day long, but in the end of the day you will need to handle something like galaxy s and comapare it to op13 to realize that first is simply superior. to be honest even a 250 dollar phone will fullfill all of your needs (unless gaming or sometihng extreme like that), so people like to shit on samsung for asking 1000+ for a flagship, but in the end who the fuck cares, it is so little money considering you will use it every day for hours

My 6a is unaffected. Guess I'll stick with this phone for another year then while fighting the urge to consoom.

going on reddit, you'd think OLED screens developing pink/green lines is a very common issue
then you read the posts and notice they're all by fucking pajeets, like no fucking shit you retard, of course the screen with degrade if you update your phone in the 50C heat

Why the fuck should anyone pay samshit when there are better foldables out there in the market. The only reason why I got a fold 6 512gb is because $870 after trade in, and tge massives discounts. Other than that. Why the fuck Samsung hasn't stepped up their game when they were one of the first to release a folding phone and now every single manufacturer thagt produces foldables has outclassed them in every way shape and form.
Should I just save my money and get OPPO Find N5 instead?
>>105782717
because the upgrade would cost me 50 bucks if I sell my F6 for 250, and get the F7 512 for 300β¬
because F7 has +1500mah battery, a way stronger SOC, and a metal frame. but the soc has no drivers for emulation and might not get them for a year.
because F7 pro has a larger camera sensor, still +1000mah battery, and a better soc that's been a classic and very well supported by emulators. but the upgrade would be 100 euro then.

oh nevermind, coupons don't work on that so the pro would be +90β¬ from the F7.
guess that larger sensor isn't really worth it since the F6 and F7 sensor has been good to me.

>gap between f7 and f7 pro is minimal
is it though
screen going from fhd+ to true 2k is big, and 8sg4 turned out being disappointing despite the hype (the difference is supposedly minimal in benchmarks but 8g3 seems to perform better in real life, especially if you care about emulation)
if anything this is the first gen in a long time where the vanilla version is actually a worse choice than the pro version

actually 8s4 performs better in real life due to big cores and GPU.
in benchmarks after the 2.2 update it also slightly overtakes 8g3.
turnip is only needed for switch and winlator I think, and its only a batter of time till adreno 8 gets that.
I think android 16 will have native Vulkan Support too so maybe it won't be needed at all?

Brehs, poco x7 pro vs Realme p3 ultra? Any other phones to consider in this price range? Both have decent antutu scores. He just needs it for YouTube and calls. Hopefully it lasts 3 years.
Also why the fuck do chink phones not have custom roms anymore? The fuck?
>>105784559
who's he?
also custom roms are not needed cause stock is fine.
don't need root either cause shizuku.
you don't need much for calls and YouTube. why are you looking at antutu for that? X7 pro is overkill. but the battery is nice.
realme software is a bit cleaner I think.

Is new Xperia 10 still happening this year?
My old phone is kind of dying, and I need a new one (OLED, headphone jack, OIS, stock Android). My current options are either Xperia 10 VI or Moto G84, neither of which looks optimal. I'm leaning towards 10 VI, but it would suck to spend 400$ on it right before the release of an updated model.

Just because you don't like Pixels doesn't mean you have to lie about them. Google actually state:
>Pixel 3 to 8 Pro - Should retain up to 80% capacity for about 800 charge cycles.
>Pixel 9 onward - Should retain up to 80% capacity for about 1000 charge cycles

how is the poco f7 pro? any issues like overheating etc? i need a new phone and it will be either s25 plus, f7 pro or the op nord 5 (depending on specs and price that will drop in a couple of days)
f7 pro is 300 bucks cheaper than s25 plus and it seems more than enough for me, but if there are problems with it as is usual with xiaomi id rather pay more since i plan to use it for some time

I reached out to Google support and they confirmed that the $150 code can be combined with store discount but not other promo codes. I'm going to wait until the pixel 10 preorders are up to see if I can get it for $400 or less (doubtful), otherwise I'll wait until the Black Friday sale and go for a 9 or 9a with a trade in of my 6a + $150 store credit.
In the meantime I'm considering installing grapheneos to avoid the mandatory update that will gimp my battery life.
