Why bother with anything else. If im being honest all the other phones are targeted at tranny's, faggots and women. Real men use phones with a replaceable battery and 3.5.

Xiaomi is shit

iOS 26 allow you to set your own song to the ringtone.

After 18 years, users were given the opportunity to set their music to ring. To do this, download audio for up to 30 seconds, find it in the files and click "Make a ringtone".

>Anyone aggressively promoting iPhone is an underage micropenis shill who should be ignored

Anyone aggressively pushing mid tiers or other similar fake flagship budget devices is a liar making up nonsense.
Same misinformation spreading shill general.

OP is a confirmed poverty stricken poo who doesn’t want anyone discussing phones he can’t afford.

saar redeem pooco f7/11 ultra mid tier and do the needful coping and seething. it is handset that makes heads turn saar!
All Poower. No BS. Saar.

>>105892354
Based, just what I'm looking for in a phone but waiting for battery to die out on mine. I got a Sony phone 2 years ago for 3.5mm jack but no replaceable battery

>POOco

why do people itt act like you can't use a battery pack, or use a micro sd card reader with a usbc on it, or use a usbc to aux dongle with a dac, or use a usbc flash drive? so strange.

>Apple and Samsung Won

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 iPhone and Galaxy so I see why they always win. They have budgets and flagships everyone enjoys. :)

My poco f3 still werks

Look at the delapitated house in this photo, literally a broken floor missing chunks of the carpet too and broken furniture in the background. Probably has no air conditioning too. Im sure this person takes good care of their smartphone like they do of their living space. Lol, lmao even. The extent shills go to try and make a valid point only to have it backfire on them.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra & the iPhone 16 Pro Max showing us why they are the global sales leaders.
Higher build quality devices with better service and OS support for a few years!

Hey guys what's the best smartphone for tr00ns like me that spam tranime?

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.

Which Xperia phone should I get that won't break down within a year

Bought a chinkshit matte screen protector (mothca on Amazon) and it cracked within three days. I'm back to using a glossy Spiger one now.

>>105893336
Turn it off and plug in with a cable, if your jeetphone will let you.

>>105892887
No, and if you're a mutt you'll have no choice but to accept the poop phone very soon.

I am having issues with my s23 fe's wifi speeds. It randomly, at any time of the day, decides to go below 1 mbps and does not increase unless I reboot the phone. It happens 100% of the time overnight. It just happened when I was doomscrolling, so actively using my phone does not change anything. I get no more than 1 mbps on my gigabit connection. "Wifi subsystem reset," reconnecting, disabling and reenabling wifi does not work. I have to reboot it everytime it happens. Has anyone encountered this issue?

Hey MacSisters, when is it a good time period to upgrade your phone? Ideally I’d like to keep it forever but the longer I wait for an upgrade the less resell value it has (selling it for less means spending more on a new phone). The other factor is apples horrendous lineup since the 14 model. It’s been a downwards spiral and I don’t know how long I should wait for them to unfuck themselves or just bite the bullet now and save up on moneys.

>>105893688

Xiaomeme Lost

>>105892508
Pooco or Motr00nola are your saviors

Regardless of price, what is the best phone to buy with a decent custom ROM scene? I'm not considering OnePlus as they've restricted their MSM tool as a paid service and Pixels are underpowered shite with a history of battery problems (as 4a and 6a owners can attest). So who's left; Motorola?

The og phones were very cool and unique.

do ANY of these sketchy looking magsafe-attached USB-C SSDs actually manage to fill the storage void left for phones without microSD slots without turning into nuclear reactor cores within 5 minutes, because it seems like on every page of reviews underneath all the botfarmed 5-stars are people complaining they heat up like the surface of the fucking sun even when idle and fry your SD altogether

>>105894634
Watch YouTube reviews. Don't buy that one SanDisk Portable Extreme or whatever it's called, that one is only so cheap because the SanDisk got a bad batch of ICs that explode and grenade all your data.

>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.

Not exactly the sort of movie I'd want to associate my brand with.

The custom ROM guide in the OP is kinda trash. Half of it is just the creator's personal preferences.

KEK your doo doo ccp phones still dont have Android 16. Only devices that are important get the latest updates first.

One UI 8 with Android 16 is amazing. You just cant afford to experience it lol.

>>105894801
That fact sheet is bullshit.
The iphone 17 "slim" is going to have a Titanium frame because Aluminium isn't going to cut it.
Also no A19 chip for the Air or the regular 17, they'll both get the A18.

If you're also willing to compromise on the headphone jack, Nothing's entire gimmick is notification led's.

>>105895267
my current one is USB-C only with just a white notification led
I am returning back to headhphone jack, this is a must have
notification LED is super handy to check the phone without having to unlock the screen or having a stupid alway-on display running, but in the worst case I could live without it

the Ulefone Armor phone might be worth to check
never heard of them

Why is internal storage so expensive? I'm not paying a hundred dollars to go from 256gb to 512gb. I'm keeping my s20 until it turns into a useless brick.

Is the oneplus 13 even worth it at that price?

I've got an iPhone 11 (2019), realistically how much longer can I hold out before I need to buy a new phone?
All I need is iMessage + basic functionality + decent battery life (enough to survive a full day)

You posers only got one new handset. You could never buy 3 new flagships every year. 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. It's not a problem for me. I'm blessed and I like smartphones.

I actually had that phone when I lived in Japan at that time. Pretty amazing phone for its time. It even came with this semi multiplayer Final Fantasy game that was exclusive to the phone.
Japan used to have all kinds of cool and interesting phones that the different companies sort of specialized in, like I think Mitsubishi always had a slider phone in the lineup for example. But then the iPhones took off and everything everywhere in the world just looks like an iPhone.

Okay, you may repeat all jeets memes from 2018 but it's 2025.

ok can someone explain what exactly is the end game for phones? like ... what's the actual goal? when do we stop? we can't keep doing this shit forever. at some point mobile phones will be a fixed problem. what is that point? does anyone know? or are we mindlessly buying any new phone without actually having an end goal?
this shit is getting tiring, it's like getting hyped a new model of lighter came out. like ok...we been doing this for a while now and they kinda do the same thing, they make a flame. whoopty doo

>>105897431
I think a satisfactory point would be once they can do everything that Tri-Corders can do on top what they do now, we'd be good.

It'll be a significant downgrade from my Ultra, and that's what guts me. I get that it's not their flagship line (even if it's still technically a flagship phone) so it won't have the best specs across the board ever, but the fact games I've never had performance issues in will suddenly start having issues makes it a dealbreaker. I hate the fucking internal politics chipwar retardation they have, just suck it up and use snapdragon.

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.

>>105898274
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.

not really, they've made efforts to remove features so they can add those back later (jack, IR blaster, removable battery, notchless screen, notification light). once those are back they will surely make up something else to remove to later re-add

Any suggestions? Searches turn up the Motorola Edge or Sony Xperia, I have no experience with either. Also older Samsungs but I'd like to avoid those. Coming from an LG V60.

>Which ultra? 24?
Yes. I looked into a bit more actually and I might pull the trigger and get the flip since I'm getting tired of the form factor. I really love it, it's a super solid phone but I did get fucked on the grainy screen and that's part of why I'm looking for an out. Somehow the Exynos chip is on par with the 24U's Snapdragon according to sneedbench but I don't think that'll hold up in real-world use since I know these things are throttling prone. I don't think I'll get it to throttle since at most I'll do dailies on it and I don't play unoptimized chinkshit like Hoyoslop or fucking PUBG.
My worst fear is something as simple as picture-in-picture during web-browsing being enough to throttle it, but I won't know until I actually check since all the reporting is super fucking muddled. Worst case is I send it back before my trade-in period is up.

Its fine. The drama is overblown. Running it on my 9a. They released android 16 a few days ago. Good stuff.

Apple CarPlay is better than Android Auto. Looks great in my Audi Q8. Simple as. I'm the AMG owner with a iPhone 16 Pro Max, Galaxy S25 Ultra and a Pixel 9 Pro XL.

They didn't need them until now. Hell, iphones lived on 4gb of ram and ran great while I couldn't name a single android phone that could run without stuttering on that.

Is the TCL nxtpaper any good?

have a Poco M5S, thinking of switching OS, maybe to graphene OS, but dunno if this means I cant play some of my games

thoughts?
What I kinda hate about this chink OS, ads o course, which I've managed to remove 99% of hemi, but lot of apps for simple functions like changing phone ringtone, wallpaper etc, need s a million exra permissions per step, and also directly go to a store isntead of just changing it from my archive

Got my Xiaomi 15

Tourist from /out/ dropping by.

What is the overall durability on the Samsung fold series like? I'm thinking of switching over from an iPhone 16 Plus to either the Z Fold 6 or 7. A friend of my had the Flip 5 and hated it but I heard that the Folds were built better. It goes without saying that it will be in a case, but I want this to be a phone that I keep for the next 7-10 years. From what I've read online, it seems like the Foldable market has someone stabilized in terms of design philosophy and its now just a matter of refinements.

>>105908799
I am 39, mate.

>>105908873
to be fair, it would still remove bloatware and make them run better for all intended purposes, its not about making them high end, just to debloat the fuck out of them+better privacy

Does anyone know how close Lineage OS is for One Plus 13? On this repo https://github.com/LineageOS/android_hardware_oplus I can see support being added last week but there's still no rom release on the main page.

Even as a dev (non mobile) I have no idea how to even read these repos and what they contain to follow the progress of Lineage OS for new devices

Could anyone TLDR this? Seems pretty complicated stuff

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.

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.

Blows my fucking mind they'd put a hole punch on the inside screen when they literally have an automatic selfie mode using the outer screen.

any important reasons I shouldnt get xiaomi 15 ultra? (other than their shit OS, I'm alredy used to it)

Why cute girls always have iphone?

>>105915883
I'm also tempted by this. The camera seems to be the absolute best available right now although I'm also tempted by the 14 Ultra due to the variable aperture.
I'm deciding between Flip 7 and X 15 Ultra which are two cmpletely different phones but coming from iOS, I'm not sure about Xiaomi software. It's also massive.

>>105916241
>between Flip 7
dont
folding phones are a fucking meme and it WILL delaminate on you

>>105915907
You're not a girl, faggot.

>>105916258
The cameras look dogshit too and I'm quite big into photography.

>>105916258
>WAIT NEVER GET ANYTHING NEW OR INTERESTING ALWAYS GET THE SAME BORING SHIT!!!!
flip 7 doesn't have the layer, retard. that's literally one of the selling points. kill yourself at your earliest convenience.

>>105916292
>THE NEW GIMMICK IS GOOD BECAUSE... IT JUST IS OK
See I can do that too
even assuming they've fixed the delamination issue it'll still develop crease that doesnt sit completly flat after unfolding
desu if it comes to folding screens I'd rather have physical separation with a border between 2 regular hard screens than that folding plastic garbage
and anyone who used 2 monitor pc setup will agree

>>105916497
It's a big screened phone that fits into small pockets. That's not a gimmick.
I would be concerned about the fragility though and dust/moisture. The cases that cover the hinge look like shit and make it huge.

Name one (1) good smartphone without flaws. There are none!

Remember her?

>>105916643
Phones, just time cars, are fundamentally shit and satanic but unfortunately you need one nowadays.

>>105915883
Why not the 14 Ultra?

What's the difference between the Scamsung normal S25 and ultra? The comparison sheet seems exactly the same except the camera and screen size.
Smaller screen size is a plus for me and I am always disappointed by phone cameras anyway. So why should I buy the ultra over the normal one?

>>105916785
15 is straight upgrade (with exception of single photography feature) and they cost almost the same where I live
