pixel 4a, 6a, 7a, depending on your budget and how important a headphone jack is for you, and how long you want support for.

only the 4a has a jack, but its official support ends in a few months, so less than a year of extended support is expected from graphene os (the os that's worth using on this phone).

you can ofcourse use a lineage with not as many security features and updates for longer.

Installing GrapheneOS is a must if you care about privacy. Unfortunately you are restricted to Google phones, and the smallest right now is the Pixel 7a. My smartphone progression path over the years has been the Galaxy S5 > S7 > Pixel 4 > 7a, so it's really funny when I hear people say the 7a is a small Android phone when it's the biggest I've had so far.

Looking for a $200 phone.
Not the a14 because I'm going through that hell right now and no repair shop, big or small, can seem to order the correct screen for the model to fix it- don't want to get another that I also can't repair because no one carries the right type of screen.

I doubt it. I was sorta considering, possibly, maybe becoming an iToddler when looking at phones recently and unsurprisingly they're all way over priced for what they are.
Maybe if I had a Macbook,Appletv, iDildo etc and I was trapped in the ecosystem or something.
But otherwise...a random refurb S series or Pixel seems like much better value. And you can actually like...configure it and such if you wish.

865 is the key here right? Other than that I'd want to be getting something from the s23 series, no? And the price difference is kinda large so any reason not just go with one of the two s20s? s20 regular seems a bit on the small side.
s23+ and ultra are pretty pricey.

In the past, I've brought my phones to a repair shop twice, and both times the technician needed to bypass the lockscreen. The first time was to change a weakening battery, the second time was to attempt a water damage repair.

My questions:
1) Did either of those repairs really require bypassing the lockscreen?
2) What should I do if a technician asks me if he can bypass the lockscreen? I can see how this can be a privacy issue. Although I have "nothing to hide," that is a terrible mindset, and I'm asking you guys because I know you guys care a lot about this kind of stuff. I can temporarily uninstall my social media apps and transfer out any personal data, but am I missing anything?

>>93667297
The point is, if your screen is unusable broken, you can't really uninstall or remove anything before they fix it.

You can refuse to give them your passcode, but accept the fact that they can't test it to such an extent.

On the few phones, like newer pixels, where the parts are serialized YET can be paired at home by the user - somebody, you or them must do the calibration before the fingerprint sensor will be usable again.

I remember in some shitty OFFICIAL Samsung services and in Apples it was generally accepted that upon any service, they wipe and upgrade your phone. I don't know if that's still the case.

Anyone?

Should I get an S22 Ultra or a Steam Deck? I have an S22 at the moment and while I do enjoy the compact size, battery life is notoriously bad, though it serves a decent emulation machine. I haven't heard much good or bad things about the Steam Deck, I kinda want to get one for emulation purposes, and to play some of my titles on my steam library there, but at the same time, I could just get an S22 Ultra for a couple hundred dollars more and get an overall better phone. What do you suggest /g/, is the Steam Deck viable enough or should I get a year old flagship phone?

>>93667091
14, 13, 12, 11, X(R)
Equivalent to:
s23, 22, 21, 20, 10
So as if you were using an s10. A bit old but nothing too crazy.
I'd probably buy an s10+ if they didn't stop getting security updates and be happy with it.
But since they stopped, s20+ or FE it is.

>>93667557
Probably broken.
A couple of weeks ago I was dead set on buying a Pixel to avoid 'bloat'.
But the more I read, the more I hear about the software being surprisingly buggy. I honestly thought it was supposed to be the opposite of that. Where the hardware isn't as nice as the S series, but the software make up for it.
I really didn't want to go back to Samsung just out of pure spite for their bloat and planned obsolescence of perfectly good phones...but here we are I guess. Back to the abusers.

>>93668981
I was looking at S10, S10+ but the security updates just ended. Probably not the end of the world, but I think the S20's will get a couple more years or something.

>>93669975
Don't care. I'm still buying Pixel 6a.

>>93670016
anon s20 series released after s10

>>93670096
Yeah, that's why I think they'll get a couple more years of security updates now that they ended this month for S10s.
S20 is still supported, thus tipping it infavor of the S20+ or FE over S10+. Even though the S10+ would probably be fine.

Bros tell me I won't regret getting the Pixel 7

>>93670475
get the 7a or wait for Pixel 8

>>93670516
what's the point of a 7a over a 6a, even?

>>93670535

>>93670571
Hope you got the one with 12gb ram and not 8gb

As far as phones are concerned, is there any meaning in going beyond 1080p? Are QHD 1440p screens on phones a meme or are they worth it?

>>93670016
With the S20 you're getting three years of OS updates and four years of security updates
This year will be the last OS update for the S20 series and next year will be the end of security updates

>>93670682
I think they might have extended it to 5 for security. I could be wrong, but I think I remember reading that.
Either way, one year is fine and I think they'll still do major or quarterly/semi-annual security updates for a bit after even if it does officially end next year.
S23+ or Ultra seem like they're pretty good and a refurb by then will probably be much cheaper than they are now.

Does XiaomiEU releases ROMs for tablets?
I really want the Pad 6 Pro but it comes with the Chinese ROM.

what's a good upgrade from an LG G6?
I'm prepared to give up the headphone jack since I never use it, but I still want something as close to traditional smartphones as possible with sd card slot, in-box charger, etc., while still having something that doesn't lag and freeze constantly like my G6.

I've been looking at Samsung A54 and Moto Stylus 5G but can't really decide between them. I've heard Samsung's exynos chips are pretty janky and have alot of bloatware while Moto has little bloatware.
Anything else I should be looking at potentially? Though I guess anything is an upgrade from 4g ram and shitty 2015 processor.

Get an S23 Ultra and a Steam Deck. Phone gaming will never compete with having a portable fucking PC. I'm using windows on mine and playing Monster Hunter and Deus Ex on my lunch breaks. Feels good man.

I still laugh at the retards.
only reason to go above 1080p on a phone is if you're planning phone vr.

or is it the oled meme? cause I never seen the pixels on an IPS, but oleds are more obvious.

>>93673829
OLED needs higher PPI than IPS because of the pixel structure.

>>93673897
don't worry text still looks like dogshit on a 1080p IPS

>>93673916
It's all about pixels per inch, not resolution.
But because of OLED's pixel structure, IPS will look better/sharper than OLED at the same PPI.

>>93673884
bullshit.
1, text is perfectly fine for the screen size, hell even 720p is enough. the majority of monitors everywhere are still 1080p and no one complains.
you fell for retarded marketing like usual. you want the 108mp camera as well?
2. games lol. if you're playing modern phone "games" just stop being a retard and get a PC. you're the laughingstock of the community.
only phone games worth playing are on emulators, and you don't need retarded res for that.

>>93672949
I've had the 53 and 54. Both are slower than a flagship because of the chipset, but the A53 has very noticeable lag at times. The A54 is a bit better.

Overall they're great phones if you find them for the right price.

>>93667557
if you get the gesture bug a bunch of the UI components disappear and most gestures break like this guy is demonstrating (ancient bug btw, my pixel 3 has it). the fix is simple, you just rotate your phone and when it switches to landscape it reloads the UI which fixes everything. how the fuck they haven't fixed it yet though? no idea

>>93671848
Pixel 6a from metro right now is $50. You won't get a charger with any modern phone though. Just bite the bullet and buy a fast charger on Amazon with your savings.

I've had both the 6a and the A54, and both are actually really nice. The A54 isn't as fast as the pixel, but it has an excellent screen, expandable storage, long support life, and Samsung goodies like the Edge panel.

I need a phone that can survive 110-120 degree Fahrenheit on a daily basis. Any suggestion?

>>93673872
its seriously marketing bullshit though. for a while i ran my S10 in 1440p, then i started testing different resolutions.
years later i was trying to change always-on-display settings and noticed i had been running 720p the whole time. 4x the pixel density made no difference at all.

>>93673993
buying retarded shit has nothing to do with having more or less money.
there is simply no logical reason to buy a phone that expensive. its a complete waste of money, a failed investment.
want to play games? get a computer, and a vr heqdset. want to take photos? buy a camera. mirrorless cameras are compact enough.
want to watch movies, get a projectors and speakers, or at least a big monitor with a good panel. simple as.


>>93673999
tell that to my RTX, 32gb of ram and 12 core CPU.
I do have a huge monitor though, but that's from watching in the bed.

>>93674171
no shit, the screens are TINY
you need to put it so close to actually tell the difference, your eyes can't focus at that point. hense VR.
but at that point just buy a normal price phone and a wireless vr set.

Anyone knows if there's a way to make YouTube music be in light mode?

steam deck. emulating ps2 games on your 1440p screen is obviously going to waste your battery. the deck lets you limit the SOC wattage and screen refresh rate so you can run old games on 5 watts at 45fps for hours.

however the deck is like 4x the size and thickness of an S22 so it won't fit in your pocket.

I have it, I really don't know what I was expecting from the phone. It has nothing really relevant, nothing to distinguish it if you don't use a WIN system to complement it. It works just like any other android phone, it just comes with Thinkphone branding stuck to the back and you have some logic controls from microphone and camera use for applications.

Curious really. Thinkpad was defined during its golden age as part of IBM by being highly customizable, maintainable and upgradeable systems, very much in resonance with the GNU spirit giving the user as much control and durability as possible, but today in 2023, the brand is following the same market trend as all its competitors.

By the way the transparent casing it comes with is extremely flimsy. I haven't done a month with the phone and that embeddable protection is all cracked.

>>93676005

It seems strange to me that it took them this long to try it. I feel like it would've made sense when Windows Phones were still a thing. I watched some videos about it, and the most unique thing seemed to be interactivity with Windows, but use cases seem pretty limited. It also seems to stuck in a no-mans-land where it's not good enough to be a flagship, but costs too much to be a value phone.

Are any Motorola's worth looking into?
