Well, my post wasn't approved it seems.

I mean, if it's a hardware problem then it probably does fall on Huawei's shoulders. They are the ones that are responsible for the manufacturer warranty as stated in the 6P's packaging.

Edit - For anyone curious about what Huawei covers in their 6P manufacturer warranty (In US), just download the warranty PDF they offer on Amazon where they directly sold the 6P themselves.

yeah deal must be dead not working for me either :(

This page i got $535

this page i got $446

but not $350

Also, if smart phones were considered a right, there's no way you'd get an iPhone. Probably something more like a Moto E if you're lucky, or something like a BLU Advance A4 if you're not. No way in hell government is gonna hand out $800+ smartphones if everybody is getting one.

Your story doesn't seem to add up? Retails for $85 Canadian? Amazon has it for $370 and in the US it is retailing for about $200

Doesn't seem Freedom is doing anything incorrectly based on their website. You can't really blame them for not doing your research. It's like if I blame Nissan/Chrysler for buying a vehicle at MSRP when they openly offer thousands and thousands of dollars of discounts

How about linking the amazon page and not android authority

Direct Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B075TNZDC7/ref=psd_nobrainer_B075TNZDC7

Without inside information it's impossible whether the factory is actually producing phones still, but they are still available new in all finishes from Huawei, so the supply of them is certainly still there.

400$ is pretty stiff, since you can buy it directly from Amazon.com right now for 349$ https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B072N3GKSM/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1518733192&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=Pixel&dpPl=1&dpID=51q4Yff-53L&ref=plSrch

I would say either Redmi Note 5 or the Mi A2.

The $382.45 is fulfilled by Amazon, so if there are any issues with the device its easy to return

You sure do have options! Depends on what you are looking for. Here are a few that I would consider good mid-rangers that would deliver bang-for-buck specs and are all very likely to get Nougat or already have it. All of these are 4.6' - 5.2' (Moto G1 was 4.7), and I listed them from smallest to biggest screen size.

  Good luck! US Amazon links since that was easy to find, but they should be available internationally as well.

are you with Fi because of a particular reason (such as multicarrier support, or international calling, or datasim, etc)? if you like those features, you might need to suck it up and stay with FI, with or without purchase of their phones.

if not, you could buy a great phone for around $200 and use it with /r/mintsim.

Buy a cheap Android phone like this. Keep it with you and use it for Reddit and whatever. When you’re with your parents, use the iPhone to act like your still using it. If you need help buying it, you can buy a Amazon GC on a subreddit like r/GiftCardExchange or pay cash at a Walmart for one there or something. Then buy it now on a guest account so it can’t be tracked to you. You can also pick it up at a Amazon locker, or ship it to a friends house so your parents aren’t suspicious. Hope this helps :) Lmk if you have any questions

Amazon also has them in stock if you think they can reach him faster. http://www.amazon.com/Huawei-Nexus-6P-Graphite-smartphone/dp/B015YCRZ06/ref=sr_1_8?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1453671335&sr=1-8&keywords=nexus+6p

Is there a specific reason you only want to use the Play Store?

Yes, I've been through this process many times!

I hate smartphones for so many reasons. The expectation of being constantly available to your screen. The goddamn size of them -- even when I'm wearing clothes with good pockets, I'm a small woman! There's only ROOM for so much pocket ON MY BODY! Smartphones have basically forced me into carrying a purse.

I went back to dumbphones for about a year but, like you, eventually the need for maps got the best of me. Honestly it was the only thing I missed, but I REALLY missed it. So I wound up back with a smartphone, and once again vaguely pissed off about all the things about it I hate.

Now I'm trying this. It's a dumbphone sized smartphone that's snappy enough to not frustrate me, but not high powered enough to let me disappear into a screen when I should be engaging with the world. It'll do maps, which is really all I care about, and I can finally get rid of the damn purse again.

I am planning to start a KonMari Pt 2: The Digital Hoard in the next few weeks. Transferring over to this smaller phone full-time is gonna be part of that.

I have all of my electronics gathered in one place, and I'm planning to do a major declutter of all photos and files. I have a server, so I want everything backed up onto it, and then my actual daily use devices to be clean.

Then once I've done that, I'm going to tackle... email. I'm NOT looking forward to it, but it desperately needs doing!

Moto E4 Plus, 5000mAH battery. It is a budget phone at under $200 dollars

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015YCRZ1K/

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0178GEA04/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 this is the page where I purchased the phone. Stay away if you're hoping for a legitimate warranty.

Sony Xperia X is your best choice if the price of the Pixel or S7 is too high.

I recommend the Sony Xperia XA for $200.

The Xperia X for $300 is worlds better.

LeEco Le S3 is a good option, full T-Mobile VoLTE + WiFi calling support with a Snapdragon 652 (X8 LTE modem for carrier aggregation) for $200. The downsides: 32 GB of internal storage without microSD support and no headphone jack (digital adapter). Camera is meh.

https://www.amazon.com/LeEco-unlocked-smartphone-32GB-Warranty/dp/B01MXLZIDS

You could grab a OnePlus 3 for $375, or a ZTE Axon 7 for $380. If you're willing to extend that budget by $28, you could get the OnePlus 3T, which definitely has enough improvements to justify the extra money. If you happen to have Amazon Prime and you're willing to deal with some ads on your lock screen, you could get an LG G6 for $400.

Those are all coming from official retailers, of course. If you're willing to go eBay, you could probably find most of the top phones from last year new-in-box for less than $400. I personally just bought a brand new LG V20 a couple weeks ago for $370.

But if you really want a phone that came out this year, these are all of your options between $275 and $400 and most of them either aren't very good or aren't available in the US. (Assuming you're from the US...if you're not, then you should probably stipulate which country.)

It is on Amazon! :D
ALSO I was wrong about it being 440. It's actually 539 on Amazon. Sorry!
Here it is

But at the end of the day, it's all up to you.

The headline says $299, the article says $229. Also, it's already on Amazon for $229.

Amazon has it for $220.

oooh found one on [Amazon] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072N3GKSM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_r3s8AbWVC5TZX)

My pocket super computer only cost 60ish.

It does have issues though.

Same price on Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/Sony-Xperia-XZ1-Compact-Unlocked/dp/B074P5FMGC/

I'm still seeing them on Amazon.

If you're in a country that doesn't have Amazon let me know. I can order and ship to you.

I am a FIRM believer in compact phones and the more that people have these the stronger a signal we'll send to Sony. I will do everything in my power to make these phones sell.

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B074P5FMGC/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1510013882&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=xz1+compact&dpPl=1&dpID=31pcVW-XlPL&ref=plSrch

It's on Amazon.CA for international version for $679. Right now on Amazon.com it's $550 usd which is $700 so this is a fair price for sure.

It would probably be cheaper and easier for you to buy this similar tiny android phone on amazon https://www.amazon.com/Unihertz-Smallest-Smartphone-Android-Unlocked/dp/B0752BYRHM/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=palm+phone&qid=1554493750&s=gateway&sr=8-1

My recommendation would be for you to buy a Honor 7x. But all the others listed are the best bang for their price.

just upgraded from AT&T and an iPhone 4 to ting and the [Sharp Aquos Crystal] (http://www.amazon.com/Sharp-Aquos-Crystal-Silver-Contract/dp/B00O15E3MQ). It is easy to activate, looks gorgeous, and is a great price. i was skeptical and reluctant to get a $130 phone and saw it as a downgrade to my iphone, but i am really pleased. the 4G is very nice, smooth operation, and great battery life. the only downside is the camera is not a good as more expensive phones, but i can do with grainy pics.

Hopes this helps!

RIP Motorola Phones (Even if it's Global GSM Unlocked)

I was hoping the Motorola Moto G would be listed. Then again, I'm not sure if Cell phone stores in Japan offer Motorola phones. Might as well check out these other phones listed.

Also just a curiosity; Does anyone own a Aquos phone like this?

Here 403 https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B015YCRZ1K/ref=mh_s9_acss_cg_hwpdmg_1a1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=mobile-hybrid-5&pf_rd_r=FZQXT3P53WD6XSK2Y0W5&pf_rd_t=1201&pf_rd_p=ea4c6f5d-f92a-43ec-b635-c86242b2bb5f&pf_rd_i=6130799011#

Not sure how much you can get a G5 plus for, as others have suggested for, but the Sony Xperia X just got a price drop in the US to $215, Amazon and B&H.

I've been trying to decide between the two phones (in the UK) but have been put off the G5 plus due to people saying Motorola are very slow to update their phones.

Edit: Whoops, didn't realise it had an affiliate link to Amazon. I got the link from Android Police. I've updated it now.

Yeah I'm fucking a Canadian too... I bought it here from amazon.ca here

I'm thinking of getting the OnePlus 3/3T and I have some questions:

1. What is the difference between International and what seems to be the US version? I have T-Mobile and I just wanna be sure that I can use the International version(which is currently available) to its full extent as opposed to the other one.
   
   
2. I doubt many have owned both the 3 and the 3T, but are the differences worth it? It's a $50 difference.
   
   
3. I'm also looking at getting an Honor 8 instead, but from what I'm reading, the OP3 has a much higher benchmark at a similar price. I've also read that Honor 8 has a better camera. And I personally like the look more, but that's not too important.
   
   Any other suggestions or comments, please post. I need a phone by next week and looked into the OnePlus 5 a bit, depending on the cost and the actual delivery date, I think I'll likely still go for a 3/3T.

Best you go for the [oneplus 3t] (https://www.amazon.com/OnePlus-A3000-Factory-Unlocked-Phone/dp/B01MXR13TZ/ref=as_li_ss_tl?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1503450069&sr=1-4&keywords=oneplus+3t&linkCode=ll1&tag=dealz050-20&linkId=ab2e679fafe31bf74e165842d165b32a) if you decide to get another phone. The 3t has a superfast processor and a long battery life that can last you more than a day on mix use. Furthermore it has 6 gb ram and is upgradable to nougat 7.

Is it just me or is the Nokia 6 the same price with or without ads? (229$)

Google Pixel GSM Unlocked (Certified Refurbished) (32GB, Gray) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072N3GKSM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_iFM5Ab83Y3A7G

Personally I would strongly recommend a pixel first gen. Firstly its not too expensive. Also to unlock the bootloader is relatively easy. Even if you have the verizon version. With this step I recommend just formatting to factory following the steps and if it doesn't work repeat until it does. Twrp is an easy install. Just need ADBand TWRP. And Magiskis simple and straight forward. Smali with AppNinja GPS joy is going to be how you spoof. Everything before this point is to get your device ready. BTW I don't work for any of these guys its just how I do it and have had no issues.


Why I recommend pixel? Because most of this has been fleshed out really well. The stock rom works really fucking well. The device is old enough to be cheap and dissected over heavily enough that documentation is everywhere, but also packs quite a punch. The other reason I recommend pixel is because to return to stock and recover from a brick is simple and straight forward. And because google gives you all the tools to do it. Lastly pixel is planned to be updated to the newest Android OS. Which means once all the hacks get updated you can move forward with hopefully a better and smoother OS.


But as tasty banana peppers has said. All those company devices work I just feel pixel is the easiest to work with. This is coming from a guy who use to do it on an S4 and didn't enjoy the experience at all.

She will have to find MP3s somewhere. It's probably easier just to get an unactivated smartphone that could use Spotify and download on wi-fi. Any burner android phone could do it. But it will take a spotify subscription to download songs to play while she runs.

https://www.amazon.com/BLU-Advance-Unlocked-Smartphone-Black/dp/B072N6BD9V $39.

The Xperia XZ1 Compact sounds just about perfect for you, as long as you're on a GSM network. What carrier do you use?

The Mate SE would be a good choice. Some people have had some lag with this phone and the 7x (me included) but that was on Nougat and on the Oreo beta the lag is 100% gone, hopefully they release the final update soon. Battery life is also definitely good, I sometimes forget to charge it overnight with no problems (though I work from home and have wifi always on which reduces battery usage).

Besides this, there's also the Xperia XA2 which comes with Oreo already and seems to be a really nice phone for the price. Probably faster than the Mate SE, though it only has 3gb of ram.

If you don't mind going a little over your budget, the Xperia XZ1 is also a good phone, and with last year flagship's cpu. The only problem is that it lacks fingerprint sensor in the US (boo!).

Other good budget options could also be available soon if you don't mind waiting, like the Moto G6 line and the Zenfone 5.

Sorry, new is $450, used is $380

https://www.amazon.com/Sony-Xperia-XZ1-Compact-Unlocked/dp/B074P5FMGC

Here's the Amazon US link: https://www.amazon.com/Sony-Xperia-XZ1-Compact-Unlocked/dp/B074P5FMGC

I think a lot of it will come down to battery and how often you intend to use the phone (for GPS etc). Batteries can be one of the heavier parts of a phone, a more powerful phone will use the battery more quickly, but there might be a limit to what you'd consider usable in a lower end phone.

The Unihertz Jelly is tiny and apparently only 60g, but that only helps so much if you end up having to carry a larger external battery to compensate.

If your phone is going to get even moderate use (rather than sitting in your bag for emergencies) I'd maybe start at with a battery comparison database and look up the weights of phones with an expected uptime which will avoid you carrying an external battery.

Lower is better isn't a budget, let me give you some advice that i wish that had been given to me at your age. ALWAYS set a budget for any task. You need hard figures, otherwise you can fall into some dangerous traps. Also cheapest isn't the least expensive you have to consider the ramifications of ownership.

you can do all those for under 400.

Keep using the s7 for as long as it works for you. Maybe replace the battery as needed once it starts to wear out. They're better than most low end phones you'd be buying right now.

A good low end option at the moment would be something like the Moto e4: https://www.amazon.com/Moto-4th-Generation-Unlocked-Exclusive/dp/B077Y79RBY/

By the time your s7 doesn't work well, there may be other and newer options.

Supposedly they do it for a bunch of phones, they used to show you ads on the lockscreen, but people got tired of that, so apparently they decided to get rid of them and instead start harvesting user data.

I read through a ton of customer reviews before buying a Pixel 3 and saw a fair amount of conflicting info. Take, for example, a review on this listing for an "unlocked" Pixel 3:

> The phone is Verizon unlocked and does NOT support eSIM!
> Customers who want to use eSIM such as Google Fi please purchase directly from Google Store!

> eSIM functionality is factory disabled and you can't re-enable it. It's not likely going to change in the future.
> You can't root it because you can't enable OEM unlock because the phone is from Verizon.

Decided to check Amazon and see what the current price is (about 60 bucks from third parties, unavailable from Amazon) and just... this, was below it

Selling for $121 on amazon today (boost version).

The Boost-branded Aquos Crystal is unofficially supported for BYOD. Amazon actually seems to be the best place to buy one because of their return policy. Keep the packaging and shipping box, so that if activation doesn't work for whatever reason, you can factory reset the thing, initiate a return, print out the return label, and get your money refunded.

No, I got it about half a year ago for $99. The Boost version of the Aquos Crystal is now $89 on Amazon. It's pretty much the 2013 Moto G with a bigger screen and a bit more RAM.

right now bestbuy has the sprint pre-paid moto e for $40 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/sprint-prepaid-motorola-moto-e-4g-with-8gb-memory-no-contract-cell-phone-black/2729581.p?id=1219563946201&skuId=2729581

i have the sharp aquos crystal and am very happy with it. they can be had for $90 http://www.amazon.com/Sharp-Aquos-Crystal-Silver-Mobile/dp/B00O15E3MQ/ref=sr_1_4?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1450371931&sr=1-4&keywords=sharp+aquos+crystal

on a side note for the sharp, i have the screen protector and case in the " frequently bought together" section. for that 1 cent, you get 6 screen protectors and they are pretty easy to install. the case is very nice and gives the phone some needed thickness and grip. the kickstand is handy too.

http://www.amazon.com/Huawei-Nexus-6P-Graphite-smartphone/dp/B015YCRZ06

Not sure what your price-range is like, but in terms of being updated, Nexus devices are the way to go. The three latest Nexus devices also work on all major US carriers, so you can use it no matter what carrier you're on.

If you like HUEG screens, the Nexus 6, while a bit older, will most likely be seeing a couple more years of updates (Android N definitely, Android O maybe, but I bet it'll at least continue to get security updates). Downside is that it doesn't have a super awesome camera. Available unlocked with no contract on Amazon for $350 here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00R1984DI

If you like large screens but not huge, the Nexus 6P would be the way to go. However, it's the newest flagship, so it's a bit more on the expensive side. Available unlocked with no contract on Amazon for $500 here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B015YCRZ06/

For the best deal, the Nexus 5X (which was released alongside the Nexus 6P) is a more affordable mid-range Nexus device. It's not really a gaming phone (although classic game emulators should work fine), but will handle regular phone tasks fine. Looks to have a pretty good camera as well: http://www.droid-life.com/2015/10/19/nexus-5x-camera-review-samples/ . Google is currently having a sale on the Nexus 5X, where if you sign up for Google Fi service, you can get the phone for $200. Downside is that you have to pay for the first month of Fi service, even if you don't want to use it (you can cancel it after), so it's more like $230, but that's still a great deal.

I saw that amazon has a 32GB Graphite for $429

I know how it feels, I have been eying this phone for myself for a while and car barely keep myself from buying it because I am waiting for the new one to be released

I have two questions, I can't seem to find any information, is a new Nexus phone going to be released this year? If so should I just wait to purchase a 6P then? Next question, I have Verizon and I'd rather not have their software on my phone, I'm assuming that the version I linked below should work with them?

Hopefully returning it doesn't cost $50

Reviews on T-Mobile's website should taken with a grain of salt. It's like reading peoples' reviews on the Google Play Store. It'll turn your brain into mush.

Look at Amazon for more in-depth and intelligent reviews (usually).

im assuming thats CAD?

either way, an international model costs $400

I'm not going to use VoLTE. And to clarify, band 12 is for future LTE-A, right?

Anyone know if the "International Unlocked" model on Amazon the: H990DS

https://www.amazon.com/LG-H990DS-5-7-Inch-FACTORY-UNLOCKED/dp/B01M4MY4RY

will work 100% on T-Mobile USA?

This site:

https://www.techwalls.com/lg-v20-model-numbers-differences/

seems to indicate that the H990DS is missing HSPA and LTE Cat12 Band 66.

This site:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Cheat-sheet-which-4G-LTE-bands-do-AT-T-Verizon-T-Mobile-and-Sprint-use-in-the-USA_id77933

Doesn't indicate that Band 66 is used.

So missing HSPA and Band 66, how hosed would I be? Should I just buy a T-Mobile specific one for more?

Found this on sale from Amazon. Would this work? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M61A8JK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_5W6GybPZ61BY4

Nah man the phones you listed are too old. They won't run modern apps.

There is a phone called the Moto G Play on Amazon. The cheaper version is only $50. It is only compatible with Verizon prepaid but if you're not using it for phone/data service, only wifi as a personal media player, it's totally fine. It has a micro SD card slot so you can add as much stuff as you want, it runs a recent version of Android (Marshmallow; not quite the newest but it's new enough), and it has 2 GB of RAM so it won't be frustratingly slow to use.

EDIT: That model appears to be sold out for the next few weeks. If you can't wait for it, the BLU R1 HD should be fine. It's only $50-$60 if you are willing to have Amazon ads on the lock screen. I would strongly recommend spending the extra $10 to get double the RAM though - having not enough RAM will seriously impact day to day usability. Back when I had a phone with 1 GB of RAM, my music would frequently stop playing because I ran out all the time. 2 GB is the bare minimum for basic functionality in Android.

I am sort of phasing out the LeEco for that reason - I think if something does go wrong well poop for me.

Even still, the Honor 7x is something I am considering. It doesn't have Android One, but that doesn't mean I am stuck on a previous android right? As a previous commenter said, its just up to the Honor team to release an update for the phone that has Android 8. If I consider the Nokia 6.1, is Honor 7x still gonna win the ring in your opinion?

Thanks for your help btw :)

ZTE are notorious for their delay in upgrades. Honestly at the $300 price point a refurb Pixel 1 is a great buy https://www.amazon.com/Google-Pixel-Unlocked-Certified-Refurbished/dp/B072N3GKSM

The article supposes that Google's canonical page system is being used to inform this behavior. It looks to establish a single, canonical URL for a given page. It says that the canonical page will be determined algorithmically if the page owner does not define the canonical URL.

I wonder if auto-generated canonical pages will trim actual useful content from URLs. For example, timestamps (like "?t=65") on YouTube URLs:

https://youtu.be/qbMTukAJskQ?t=65

Also, automatic subtitle navigation on Wikipedia links (like "#Capabilities")

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falcon_Heavy#Capabilities

I just hope that this new feature will not cause regression in such cases. I do like the idea of Google automatically trimming the chaff from Amazon URLs. I usually do so manually, anyways. For example, an Amazon URL like this:

https://www.amazon.com/Google-Pixel-Unlocked-Certified-Refurbished/dp/B072N3GKSM/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1519145581&sr=1-1&keywords=pixel

really only needs to be like this:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072N3GKSM

My understanding of referral strings in URLs is that it helps the retailer track page links, I wonder if Google will get rid of referral info in URLs as well?

Or you could get a Certified Refurbished Pixel or Pixel XL for under $250 instead:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072N3GKSM/ref=twister_B07BKTQCXR?_encoding=UTF8&th=1

They're unlocked and are guaranteed to look and work as-new. (I have one, and it does).

Note: The warranty is 90 days, so there is some extra risk involved for the lower price. Personally, I think it's worth it, especially if you buy refurbished goods regularly. Even if you get stuck with a lemon sometimes, overall you should still come out ahead in the long run.

Also, if you have a Visa or Amex card that extends warranties, it will work for refurbished phones too (extending it to 180 days).

Thanks, but I'm looking for something more like this level ($55) as a backup phone for a trip: https://www.amazon.ca/BLU-Advance-Unlocked-Smartphone-Black/dp/B072N6BD9V/ref=sr_1_83?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1519150716&sr=1-83&keywords=android+-watch#customerReviews

I have an old BLU phone that I use at times with a data-only SIM and it works fine.

However, if I were in your shoes, I would "splurge" for a $99 Moto G6, you'll need to "activate" it on GoogleFi and you might as well use it for 1 week or - better - 1 month.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072N6BD9V/ref=s9_acsd_al_bw_c_x_1_w

Cheaper than any flipphone I ever had.

Amazon?

I know you said not phone based, but I wanted an audiobook player with all the bells and whistles for jogging, and to also have a travel phone so I dont lose or damage my nice one so I got a Jelly Phone for $120. Thing is literally 1/4 of the size of my regular phone, has android so I can load Booksonic, Listen Audiobook Player, Audible, etc., dual sim's but works on wifi without.

​

Not sure about sleep-drunk friendly, I find it easy to use and the screen is small so it's not that bright. Maybe the ipod nano would be a good fit if you like using itunes.

Just buy a cheap android phone, and use a google voice number.

amazon link

If you're on t-mobile, it's only $10 a month to add a line anyway.

>It's easy to find a replacement. There are four standard sizes.

So if you're looking for the best available model, and only one size fits, you're instantly ruling out 3/4 of microwaves on the market for something that has almost no bearing on performance or other features.

Hmmmm.

>Never actually had to look for one or has lied about looking for one because they assumed it was hard, so they don't know it's trivial.

Or they care about the appliances they get and know that limiting yourself to 1/4 of available built-in appliances is like saying you can only buy a car with, say, a given length that's within 4 inches of an arbitrary set vehicle length. But, odds are that the best vehicles aren't going to fit that arbitrary specification. And that could be a real problem that could cost you (tens of) thousands of dollars.

You can say that it's possible to find a good vehicle that meets those specifications, but if you actually care about the quality / performance / specifications of the appliance or vehicle you're getting, you should still acknowledge that limiting working models to <25% of what's on the market is...what it is. Sure, you can find a POS model that fits. Enjoy buying a new microwave every 2 years.

Which brings us to your last point:

>Has a really, really old appliance (like 50-60+ years old) that was before these standards existed.

If you buy decent quality appliances, they last for longer than 5-10 years, and it will have been discontinued. Any replacement you find will have to be secondhand or it's remodel time.

>That's like saying "It's so hard to find the right sized case for my iPhone 8." just because cases for the iPhone 6 and 7 exist.

It's more like saying "I wish I hadn't bought these women's jeans because no modern smartphone will fit into the pocket."

You can always go to a tailor to get real pockets installed, but you could've avoided the problem in the first place by buying pants with real pockets that could be used to hold actual objects. And while it's true that some tiny smartphones exist, limiting yourself to the handful of ~limited-capability models that fit is...limiting. You'll probably be able to find something that kind of works. No one's disagreeing with that. But not all [appliances] are created equal, and you're essentially pushing the idea that size is the most important feature of a [microwave, fridge, whatever], when it affects performance and reliability about as much as the color does.

Take a look at the Jelly Pro from Unihertz. It should work with AT&T and T-Mobile and should fit the bill.

And look at that, /u/Soifon99, it is cheaper now!

Just checked Amazon and they have the phone + 360camera for $399, possibly only for cyber Monday.

Yeah, that'd be amazing, actually. Especially since most smartphones nowadays (even relatively affordable <$400 ones like the Moto E4) would be able to run either of these games at the smoothest framerates possible.

If not a remaster, a ground-up remake with Fallout Shelter's art direction would be a nice alternative, too. The only problem Bethesda faces would have to be sales and marketing. Do they want to sell this game to hardcore/novice Fallout fans or would they rather tap into a more casual market instead?

Clearly, no one wants to see these remasters flop, so in the end, it's up to Bethesda to decide on how they're going to approach this.

The sale is still on. But I forgot to mention you have to be a Prime member to begin with which I already was. Sorry about that.

This is actually the reason I ended up replacing my z3 after just barely a year. The D6166 is the only z3 model that can't unlock the bootloader and it was abandoned for updates very quickly (other models at least got 6.0).

Since TMobile is GSM, you should check Amazon for unlocked devices since they tend to be cheaper than financing in the long run (assuming $2-300 up front is doable). Something like the Moto G5 Plus should be pretty decent without crippling your bank account.

I got a Moto 5 plus and am super happy with it. https://www.amazon.com/Moto-PLUS-5th-Generation-Exclusive/dp/B077Y8DN87/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1521651583&sr=8-3&keywords=moto+5

Previous phone was a Samsung s5 when they were the new kid on the block. Doubt I'll ever go back to a flagship phone honestly. Just cannot justify a $400-$600 price differential.

Nope, sorry. When buying a phone for a US carrier not sold by the carrier (aka bring-your-own "unlocked" phone) you need to find an explicit confirmation from the seller that this specific model supports carrier X. This confirmation doesn't apply to any other model sold under the same name.


For example:

• Moto G5. Explicitly "Fully Compatible" with Verizon. But that doesn't mean some overseas model Moto G5 is compatible with Verizon.
  
• LG X charge. "Compatible with AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile networks." This one doesn't even claims to be compatible with Verizon. So it's not compatible.

Yeah, it is the 32 GB one. $259.99 for 64 GB.

But I see Amazon has the 64 GB version on sale for $219.99 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077Y8DN87

That's cheaper than a few months ago when I bought it for $224.

Hmm, it is the Amazon Prime version, which no longer has ads on lock screen, but may get slower software updates than the one from Motorola.

Na verdade o modelo que eu pegaria do redmi seria o Redmi note 5 pro, que tá uns 1.150,00 na amazon, de 4gb/64gb

Redmi note 5 pro

O que acha?

Question on what phone to purchase. Going with Xiaomi Redmi Note 5, then switching to TMobile in my area (Central NYS - US). There's a couple on Amazon that I'm not sure which one to choose:

https://www.amazon.com/Xiaomi-Unlocked-Global-Version-Warranty/dp/B07D82MTZL/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1539722254&sr=1-1&keywords=xiaomi+redmi+note+5+unlocked

I'm not an expert at phones, at all. Any idea on which one is superior? There's about a $25 difference, as well. O_o

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CZS8W5Y/ref=psdc_2407749011_t4_B07D82MTZL

Noted.

I've found a few but it just leaves the question open which seller is good

edit: those are the two i've found so far 1 2 (i just noticed both are practically the same but with different sellers)

Consiglio smartphone, che ho un Asus Zenfone 2 Laser da quasi 3 anni ed è arrivato il momento di cambiare.

Mi serve un dual sim, schermo grande e che viaggi sui 200 euro circa; se lo slot dual sim è ibrido mi serve con 64GB di memoria, se è dedicato mi accontento di molto meno. Non gioco su telefono e sono uno sviluppatore web, quindi l'unica pretesa che ho è che sia scattante nel quotidiano.

Stavo per andare bello secco sullo Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro, poi ho scoperto che non ha l'NFC e ultimamente mi è presa la smania, per via di Google Pay.

1. L'NFC per pagare contactless è utile o dopo una settimana che è passato il divertimento da giocattolo nuovo se ne fa a meno?
   
2. Con NFC trovo qualcosa di decente su quella fascia di prezzo? C'è l'Honor P20 Lite, ma sta circa 50 euro sopra quello che mi andava di spendere
   
3. Senza NFC ci sono scelte migliori di quella che ho individuato?
   
   ​

As câmaras dos telemóveis chineses têm evoluído muito recentemente. No entanto, raramente chegaram à qualidade de um Samsung do mesmo segmento, que no entanto é inferior em tudo o resto.

Dito isto, sugiro o Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro (4/64 GB), que custa 185€ na Amazon.es. Significativamente melhor que isto só a partir do Pocophone F1, mas este custa mais de 300€.

Questo, ce l'ho da un paio di mesi e sono soddisfattissimo.

I had the Note 4 and the Note 5, and voice quality was more or less the same between the two. However even if voice quality was notably better in the Note 5 over the Note 4, I wouldn't recommend that you buy a phone that is over 3 years old unless you have no other option.

If you're on a budget and don't need all of the Samsung-specific features of the Note 5, something like the LG Stylo 4 might be a feasible option.

The following LG Stylo 4 from Amazon is universally unlocked to work on all carriers:

https://www.amazon.com/LG-Stylo-Unlocked-T-Mobile-Exclusive/dp/B07D3QKRW1/ref=sr_1_4?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1538927604&sr=1-4&keywords=lg+stylo+4+phone&dpID=41LekFnXU3L&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

Also the Moto G6 Play form Amazon will work on all carrier:

https://www.amazon.com/Moto-G6-Play-Unlocked-Exclusive/dp/B079YTK8XV/ref=sr_1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1538927473&sr=1-3&keywords=motorola+phone

Ok OP, I said I'd get you a recommend. Take a look at the LG Stylo 4 that is close to your budget at $180 and a better deal than the V20. Cons with the Stylo is ram size.

Also the Moto Z2 play I like too from swappa.com. Cons, battery life average. But I would not call it subpar. Really it might be the best pick for around $180.

You just are not going to find everything at this price level imho but we do look hard for it!

I think you will have a hard time finding a new G7 for cheaper than $350. I would grab that s9, $350 is great for that phone. I paid $400 for my g7 6 weeks ago when the s9 was $500. I feel sick about not waiting until prime day. They also have pixel 3 for $539 officially sold by Amazon which they didn't used to carry the pixel 3, it was only sold by 3rd parties, which everyone should avoid like the plague.

Google - Pixel 3 with 64GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Just Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P8MQHSH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_L4zlDb3000SKS

Yea, but wait until black friday or later to get a sweet deal and not be a sucker for paying full price.

Source: I was one of those suckers.

In all seriousness, if history repeats itself and google slashes prices on their phones weeks after their release, you'll get a better deal on the pixel 4.

*The pixel 3, 64 gb regular model, is priced $500 on amazon right now. The XL is $600. Check it out here

Is it just me, or is the Moto G Play next? I cant believe this phone is $50 and I think its better than the N5 (although I didnt have it long as the battery sucked)

Every sub $200 phone has compromises. That said one of the best bang for the buck is the LeEco S3.

My major gripe is there's been no security patch since January however it is rootable with an active modding community on XDA.

> Really, so there's no store that offers certain Google products on Amazon, because no single store is interested in selling them? Amazon outright bans sale of those products by any store on their platform. Instead of your search for Google home, you get the Amazon echo as the first home Assistant result.

I'm sorry, you were saying?

You can do that with a $40 android phone.
