How long until we see android flagships made from an aluminum unibody?

Negative time.

All icucks need BBC in their beta faggot sissy asses

Real answer, probably before apple decides to ditch the aluminum unibody again. It's hard to argue that samsung and chinkshit don't follow apples design cues. Also hard to argue apple doesn't back pedal designs that were a mistake or just not as great as i they thought, and then never address it.

OnePlus Nord 4, 2024, first result for "aluminum unibody smartphone" on Google.

iPhone 7 was the only one with an actual unibody

I want my phone to be solid marble and weigh 80lbs
I want to be able to use my phone to break a skull in a self defence scenario

htc one m8 was flagship in it's release year, you are retarded

>>106855225

Who gives a fuck nigger, all phones are for subhuman JEETS. Get a desktop or laptop.

>>106853923 (OP)
You know what else is an aluminum unibody?
A can, minus the lid.

>>106855350
If you have zero need for a cell phone there isn’t even a debate that you’re a subhuman.

That was the last good Android phone.

>>106853923 (OP)
I would rather not have a metal casing. It blocks EMF which is a key characteristic for phones

>>106853923 (OP)

Also who cares about phones, people without linux computers or smth?

So, after the decolorationgate was the best pick this year the silver one?

>>106855163
Honest question, how do you check that, they removed the label in the usb-c port.

>>106857717
its on the box

The Air is better if you don't need the extra retarded camera shit

>>106858012
In past indian ones said they were from china but in the usb port it said where they really were from.

As much as i hate apple, i cant lie theres something about the aluminum material that feels so nice to the touch. My grandma has apple tv and when i go to visit her i autistically like to hold the remote because i like the feel of the metal.
Is it some kind of patent they have on this material cuz i havent noticed an identical kind of electronic device with that same kind of feel

>>106858614
no they did not that is illegal and apple would be sued and fined into oblivion

in fact, made in india iphones are nearly entirely full of chinese components

>>106856564
have you come out yet?

So if the back of the product box says "Product of China," that means it's made and assembled in China? Could it also mean the parts are made in China but they were assembled together in India?

>>106862171
there's all sorts of rules and regulations about origin marking and it depends on the country

https://www.cbp.gov/trade/rulings/informed-compliance-publications/marking-country-origin-us-imports

most made in USA cars are full of chinese parts for example which is why US automakers are paying billions in tariffs to the government

anodised aluminium, probably feels good because aluminium oxide is extremely chemically unreactive but it's not oily like plastic and it conducts heat well

>You want worse performance than the 16
I could easily make do with an A10 chip if it wasn't for the limited RAM it is paired with.
>You want the battery to last less than half the day
It will surely last me multiple days with less than an hour of screen time.
>You want to be tied to esim capable carriers
There are many esim-only carriers with extremely competitive rates; besides, I don't have to get fleeced by roaming surcharges, nor airport kiosks, since I could load an esim before I even board my flight.
>You want the phone to get extremely hot extremely fast
I don't game on my phone.
>You want piss poor sound
I've never used my phone speaker in the past 6 years.
>You want to carry a detachable battery that wirelessly charges the phone thus losing 20 to 30% of electricity in the process.
Having a tailor-made slim wireless powerbank is perfect for when I'm travelling.
