Hey I'm in search of a new phone. I have a few features that I prefer and in am struggling to find a phone that fits.

I'd prefer the following:

Wireless Charging

Expandable memory

3.5mm headphone input

Does a phone like this exist? It seems like this combination of features is tough to find especially in a phone that is also well supported by the community. I would also be okay with a previous generation of phone.
[General Topics] brubblu:
There's a surprising number of them actually, especially if you are ok with previous generations of phones. If that's ok with the forum rules (otherwise I apologize in advance to the staff), here are a few links to gsmarena

this one is for the general search:

Phone Finder - search for a phone by feature - GSMArena.com

www.gsmarena.com

and this one is for the search with all 3 options you say are important

Phone Finder results - GSMArena.com

www.gsmarena.com

You will see quite a few of the latest Samsung phones seem to tick all the boxes for you. Now as for the support,that kinda depends what you wanna do with them, but usually Samsung has quite a big pool of users and you can check the forums here for the desired models

in the past week I have gotten ahold of over 10 phones. main purpose? unlock bootloader, root device, and play Pokémon go official app on the device, of course their are other things i want it for but this is my main reason. but every device I've gotten my hands on have been a complete fail and its driving me insane!! so I'm just looking at my options what can I do? I really want to get a Samsung galaxy tab s6 lite but honestly I don't wanna waste my money and not be able to root. I really need something that that is gonna work either a high end tab or a high-end phone that can be rooted. would be even better if I could just by a pre rooted phone or tab somewhere. please just, any help would be appreciated.

Have nexus 6p since 2017. It was working fine. I had no issue that it doesn't get any more Google update etc.

After 2020, battery started to cause issues. At first few months I didn't notice this but it randomly shuts down even at 60. This issue got worse. It now shuts down even at 75.

As I am typing, I have it charging because I don't want to lose what I wrote.

There are ways like replace the battery and sale it etc etc. But to be honest, I don't want to do. I am more than happy with it.

My usage is quora, youtube, ludo and hardly 1 or 2 other apps.

Budget is $200 max. Please suggest phones that can replace this device

It all depends whether you want a budget phone, mid-range or flagship phone. I recently bought a budget phone based on Helio chipset with PoweVR graphics. I am satisfied. It works like it is a mid-range phone. Helio chipset is very good in my opinion and PowerVR is my favourite GPU. I don't need flagship devices. But if you want a flagship phone I would go for One Plus 9 pro.

Hi.

I'm looking for a phone that will be used exclusively as DAP, literally just to listening music with my iems.

I'm tired of DAPs itself with horrible UI and systems, even on the expensive ones.

But, i don't know what kind of hardware to look for, i was thinking about Poco M3 but that thing it's too much for that i think, would be good to save as much money as possible for a such simple device and purpose.

My needs:

- Cheap - $100/$150 range at max.

- SD slot for music library

- Headphone jack

- Battery life

- Easy and friendly custom OS support

Some questions:

Those MediaTek Helio cpus should be enough or should i aim for Snapdragons only?

2GB of ram it's enough? 3GB? or 4GB to be on a safe place for years even for something to just play music?

UFS memory would be a game changer for my case?

Thanks for any help guys.
[General Topics] scaling_governor:
Yes, Helio chipset should be just fine. 3 GB of RAM is minimum for newer Androids. I think you should be fine with eMMC 5.1 flash memory. No need for expensive phones with UFS.
[General Topics] Alex Perry:
Man, after some research, looks like MediaTek ones are horrible and no custom roms on his side as well to make things worse. I'm looking for the M3 again.

[General Topics] colekayley:
In 2021, buying the best phone means looking for something that should last you a few years. Smartphones’ upgrade cycles are slowing down for a reason: even at lower prices, it’s getting harder and harder to buy a lemon. In other words, you don’t have to spend a huge amount to get something great, as a bunch of great smartphones are available for around $800. It’s harder than ever to decide between everything in that range, but for most people, my pick for the best phone is the Apple iPhone 12.

Luckily, if you’re looking for a no-compromise smartphone at any price, the choices over a thousand dollars are much clearer. If you like Android, the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra is incredibly good. And if you want to get the best smartphone on a budget, you can find something really good for under $500 or even under $400. For those recommendations, you can check out our guide to budget smartphones.

A great smartphone will last you for several years (at least), have a great camera, a nice screen, long battery life, and be fast enough to do all the work, social networking, and gaming you want to pack into a day. Believe it or not, all of those things are easier than ever to find in a phone — so picking the best one is often a matter of degrees or preferences.

Hi,

Hope you can help me:

I'm starting to look for a new smartphone as dailydriver. Am in no hurry, so I can wait for the new devices in automn aso.

My requirements:

must:

- European LTE-Bands (B20)

- Google Safetynet-certified (i have to use apps that require this)

- either 64GB internal or microSD

- good GPS (incl. Galileo, Glonass)*

- good compass*

- Battery to last 2 days with normal DOT (non-Gamer!)

- Fingerprint/NFC/good Wifi

- decent Cam for snapshots/panoramic

- Support for alternative OS (Lineage, /e/ aso) for the "2nd life"

- "not too big" < 6,5" (i like phones that fit in my pocket)

would be nice:

- DualSIM or eSim + microSIM-slot

- wireless charging

- "clean as possible" Stock-Android

- "unbloatable" **

* current phone (Xiaomi Mi9SE) somewhat struggles with getting a good fix and/or orientation; sucks when navigating with the bycicle

** I love that "hack" for Xiaomi-Phones to get rid of everything Bloat I don't need/want...

Which devices should I aim for?

(currently, I kinda prefer the OnePlus9-models - are they still recommendable? If yes I'd wait until the price drops)

After spidering my xiaomi redmi note 4 and finding out that replacing the glass isn't that easy I'm now looking for a new smartphone, that

a) is either easy to repair

Interestingly this only seems to apply to fairphone and other sustainable phone, but they are way to expensive for their specs (I'd be willing to pay 50€ over a normal non sustainable phone, but not 150 or more...).

or b) won't break at all

I checked some rugged phones (the most appealing to me was the umidigi bison) but most of them lack updates/mods.

This is what I want:

- easy to repair/no breaking glass at all

-hardware capable of running for at least 3, better 5 years

-updates for that period

-4g bands for europe should be supported

-i _don't_ need a good camera, wide-angle, triple camera, 90+hz display, oled, 5g

I want to pay max 200€.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

The rumor was multiple Nexus devices from multiple manufactures. The number that floated around out there was 5, but I don't think that was ever substantiated.

Google has launched 4 new Nexus devices from four different manufactures. We have the Nexus 4 from LG, the Nexus 7 from ASUS, the Nexus 10 from Samsung and of course the Nexus Q from Google themselves (which they have already quietly discontinued already?).

There's really not much room in the line up for any more devices. Google has finally released a high end Nexus phone with the Nexus 4. You could argue that there is room in the line up for a smaller, cheaper, more mainstream device but frankly with the N4 starting at $299, I have a tough time imaging them being able to produce another phone for much cheaper.

Anyway, I was kind of hoping to get ahold of the Xiomi Mi2 when it became available, but with the Nexus 4 coming in at 299/349 and being a fully supported Nexus/pure android experience device, I'm definitely looking at the N4 instead. It has the specs I want (S4 Pro, 2GB RAM, killer screen), with the features I want (Stock android!!! Also, inductive charging, a nice dock, wireless display mirroring) at a price that just can't be beat. I just hope that LG makes good on their end and builds a quality device. Google has "done good" with Nexus 4 IMHO.

THIS is the phone I wanted the Galaxy Nexus (and, to some extent, the HTC One X) to be.
