I just switched from dumbphone to my first smartphone (Nothing 4a). Android. This is probably a dumb question but: Is there a way to make the phone give a warning sound when it switches from wifi to data? I have unlimited Wifi, but pretty limited data, and I would hate to lose a month of data to something dumb like losing wifi or not re-connecting properly when coming home.

I used to get 9, sometimes 10 hours SOT out of my OnePlus 13 when I first got it but at this point it can barely break 8 hours just doing relatively light shit. Battery health is at 99% but it performs more like a 5000mAh battery and not a 6000mAh battery.

Any thoughts about Samsung flagships? I've had an s22 ultra for a few years. Recently, it's decided to start dropping cell service randomly. It appears to be a known issue with this model and related to hardware. Annoying, but what can you do. I've had a stylus phone for like 15 years now and don't want to give it up. As such, I was looking at new galaxy s ultra phones. The loss of Bluetooth in the stylus in the s26 bothers me, as does all the ai bullshit. Considering an s24 ultra. Any thoughts?

I have been looking at the Pixel 8pro vs Pixel 9a.
My only beef with the 9a is that is has no zoom lens which I regularly use. but the 9a in a NIB is nearly 30% cheaper than an 8pro in "excellent condition" on ebay

whats better? pay $280 for 9a or $400 for 8pro?
yes there are cheaper 8pro but I dont trust the generic descriptions of "items shows moderate wear" aka it has a bunch of scratches on the screen.

That's the puzzling part. It's obviously degrading in terms of SOT from when I first got it, but battery health seems perfectly fine. Then again that number might just be a total lie and it could be lower than it actually is.

>>108628442
My first Samsung flagship was an S23U and it was alright but I ultimately switched to something else. I personally never gave half a shit about the stylus but S24U is your best bet if you don't want the newer, gimped stylus. I wouldn't worry about the lack of Si/C either, it's not all it's cracked up to be. Chink phones need 7000mAh+ batteries to outpace Galaxy Ultra battery life because their software is always doing way more shit in the background. SOT on my OnePlus 13 is more or less in line with what I was getting on my S23U despite having a 20% larger battery.

Probably just one Indian being paid by someone to keep the conversation about Apple or to get YT clicks without buying an ad, and hey it's working!

My S24 Ultra is sperging out because I changed the CSC from ATT to XAA to get on the unlocked update cycle (AT&T held up the OneUI 7 update for almost a month). I think AT&T is forcibly dropping me from connecting to 5G because it 'thinks' my phone doesn't support their bands despite me buying it from them. I'm considering taking this as an excuse to upgrade my phone rather than mess around with sketchy HOME_CSC flashes again.

Of the flagships that are on the market right now, what seems to be the go-to that will work on US carriers? It sounds like the S26 Ultra is bad and the Pixel 10 lineup still has Pixel problems, so what are people actually using?

1. This is BS since it does have a crease too.

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the iPhone Fold will have a crease as well. I don't mind the crease that much, the thing that bothers me is the shitty cameras on this thing. 200mp/12mp/10mp is unacceptable for a phone that MRPS at close to 2k.

I dare every single one of you to pick up a phone from 2 years ago or more that has a curvy design and tell me you hate it and love the flat crappy square design of your current phone. Sharp corners in my hands feels so shit I have no clue why this is now the new trend. It feels so bad compared to an older phone that im literally getting rid of my OnePlus 15R and picked back up my trusty Redmi note 13 Pro+. I don't even care about battery life or gimmicks anymore. Just give me those slight curves god damn it. At least this Redmi got Android 16 so I'm good for another couple of years. Hopefully this garbage trend dies off

>>108639848
Curved screens are the worst. Literally the only screen I cracked was a curved one... Flat is better.

>>108639896
A phone can have curved back and or sides with a flat screen. Don't know what you are on about. If you talk about the Redmi then yes it has but I don't mind it. I also wouldn't mind a good old curvy design with flat screen like literally all phones used to have 5 years ago. Stop coping

Post from another thread:

Looking to upgrade to either a Sony Xperia 1 VI or VII from Hong Kong. Reside in the USA and said model is missing a few bands but the connection can't be that much worst than my 4g phone can it (currently using s10+)? Also is the VI the better choice of the 2 since it has less of a risk of defects that the VII potentially can have, right?

Also I've read that Wifi calling doesn't work out the box in the US and you have to jump through some hoops to enable it along with 5G(no root required). Will the phone be more trouble than it's worth to make functional in the US? Or am I just overthinking things, as the guide seems pretty dummy proof.

>https://xdaforums.com/t/vowifi-and-volte-no-root-required-update-its-working-2024.4566313/

I really just want a quality phone with minimal to no bloatware and AI features. i don't care much for samsung's services and apps. I was contemplating importing an iphone 17(simcard model) because I've read the CH/HK have a lot of ai features disabled, but I'm not too keen on having to sign up with apple or losing access to a browser with adblock

What would you suggest I go with? Any better recommendations for what I'm looking for?

>>108642259
Just use Firefox with extensions like Ublock Origin, Blocktube, Unhook, and Sponsorblock.

taking the redmagic 11 pro as an example, its OS is hardcoded to run at a hidden 110% performance setting if it detects a benchmark app like 3dmark running. this hidden performance mode greatly increases the thermal throttling temp from 50-60C to 100C and lets the SoC go full bore on power from the usual ~5W on phones to 10-15W power sustained.

I will NEVER understand why Samsung dumped their UI for One, their UI was fine, it was sleek enough, and the bloat was relatively easy to put up with.

Now with One I'm spending every other day looking into another UI I could install.

Received a free iphone from my sister because my previous iphone was old as shit.
The problem is that the new iphone doesn't have 3.5mm jack support..

I just need them to listen to a podcast when i tan my body in summer, no music so the quality just needs to be functional and i dont want to spend more than 15-20 euros on it.

I have a Pixel 10 Pro (non-XL) coming from a lifetime of iphone usage and its the best phone I've ever owned. Its scam call screening, AI voice translating, and software features are just too good.

>>108645729
well its not a big issue if you have that type of cooling then. but the other huge problem with the s26u is that its screen is pretty harsh and causes bad migraines for some people. if you're even slightly sensitive to oled flicker, you'd probably want to avoid that model and opt for a s26+ or s26

Not a problem for me, I'm an OLED boy, I love OLED.

I finally bought a new phone after 9 years, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 512 GB model. My previous phone was a Galaxy Note 8. The UI is really snappy and responsive, the screen looks great and smooth, and it actually has an SD card slot unlike modern phones for some reason. That's literally all that I need, I don't care if it isn't officially supported anymore, I can watch vids, browse the internet, and make calls on a phone that feels good to use. Anyways, I'm gonna place a 1TB microSD in this baby and start a new, more curated porn collection composed of my absolute favs. I look forward to not having to buy another phone for 9 more years.

I finally upgraded to the Poco F8 Pro from my old V60. Gotta say, HyperOS is fucking weird. It's actually pretty damn comfy once you get everything set up, but, out of the box, it's eerily reminiscent of Touchwiz in the sense that there's a bunch of bloat that has to be removed in order to get a remotely decent experience. Still like my new phone at the end of the day though, hope it lasts as long as my old one.

The strange thing about that phone is that it feels a lot like the newer s23/s24 ultras despite being older than 5 years old

You're in no way any "safer" by moving to another brand, shit happens.


I've got a Note20 Ultra and a Galaxy Note8 that both still have their original batteries and both still are doing better than your 7 hour claim.


Does that mean samsung is AMAZING and has the best batteries ever? No of course not. But your singular bad experience means literally nothing.

Also if you spent $1000 on the S23U 2 years ago you got ripped off.
The S23U is over 3 years old, so you bought it when it was already 1 year old, if you still paid $1k you were just dumb.

Good sites for buying refurbished phones? Backmarket any good?

>>108656940
Refurbished usually just means used with a markup.

Just buy from your local classified ads service if you're looking for a used phone, you can get great deals or you can get burned, or you can get an ok deal. Something like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist or Kijiji or what have you, whatever they use in your country to sell items.

Anything Nothing Phone alternatives? I like the OS UI but built in AI annoys me.

C class coup for 15k isn't a flex. Bragging about buying a old benz and lying saying a C Class goes for 100k. My God the lies.

If you think I'm trying to flex you can't even read. I said you should live smart and not pay top dollar for stuff. Also I live in a country that's not US where cars are insanely expensive so yes new it's 100k after import tax.
