Title: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: NekoJonez on December 15, 2013, 04:30:04 PM
My mobile phone is nearly dead. My battery is empty after +/- a half day in idle mode, the plug for ear duds sometimes only sends the send through one side, the back can't be fully attached to the front and my text messages disappear on me.

So, in other words, I need a new mobile phone. Any suggestions? I would love an Android phone but my budget isn't that big...

(And yes, I copy pasted this from my Facebook. What gives.)

How big is your budget exactly? Android phones can get pretty cheap depending on the model.

Well, at the moment 200 bucks.

I got my HTC Desire on android for under £100 I think. It emulates NDS games fine too, I'm very happy with it.

I saw an ad on tv where if you buy at a sertain store a phone with an abbonement. You can get a car for 29 euro

Why not the Sony Phones? Sony Xperia L comes with great specs for an affordable price ;)
And it's Android + Sony, it can't get any better xD

Sony, rather not. I want an Andriod phone.

Thanks to msg, the HTC Desire 300 took a spot in my hart.

For the record, Sony phones do use Android as their OS. But, like HTC, they don't use vanilla Android.

Well, I'm reading articles that get me extremely confused.

The mrs has a Samsung and it's easily as good as my phone, I'd have one of those no problem.

EDIT: When you get your android google "DraStic apk". It's a very good DS emulator, I use it all the time.

One of the providers here has a subscription model where I can buy the Samsung Galaxy SIII Mini with a 50% discount. I'm rather interested.
Title: Re: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: Swagmaster on January 12, 2014, 02:25:22 PM
The Galaxy SIII is a great phone. The only issue I ever had experienced when having a Galaxy is the battery life. It started out great but it got very bad very quickly. I'm taking from ~15 hrs to ~2hrs of usage within a year. iPhones on the other hand from my experience (Which was the iPhone 4) go from about 10 hrs to 5 in 2 yrs. and my 5s still gives me 15 hrs after about 3 months

Honestly, I think iPhones are too expensive. I don't really care about them. Android is where it's at <3

Agreed.
Androids are better in so many ways. (I'm not talking about hardware, I mean software)
Title: Re: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: Kiss x Miz on January 12, 2014, 04:02:25 PM
The S3 is an older version, so it shouldn't be 50% off the full price but off the current value.
Title: Re: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: Swagmaster on January 12, 2014, 04:10:42 PM
I wasn't trying to convince you to buy one. I was just using the iPhone to compare to the Galaxy battery life, since I'm am not accustomed to any other phone.

The S3 is an older version, so it shouldn't be 50% off the full price but off the current value.
even better lol

Honestly, I think that there are better phones out there even in hardware which you can buy for cheap.

Oh what a coincidence, just in time for Jonez's phone to die again.

Welp, this time it was because me falling over a FUCKING LOOSE TILE at the station >.> It didn't die, it's too expensive to repair.

It's time for me to get a new phone too! Just waiting on that new iPhone release ~

This Z3 is pretty fucking awesome. I recommend one. The waterproof thing is gonna be important when I go on holiday.

I'd also need sandproof.

I think it is, it's dustproof for sure.

I got myself the Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo. And I love it. :)

Title: Re: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: O:\msg on August 28, 2015, 07:41:00 AM
I had the Galaxy S3 before my new phone and it was a good phone, the neo seems to be a good upgrade on it too.
Title: Re: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: Swagmaster on August 28, 2015, 12:26:11 PM
What is the neo? Is it only a software update or is it a different model?

I waited until the Z5 was announced before buying because there is always a big price drop. A couple of months ago the Z3 was £500, I got it for £360 :}

Dang you actually got it for a decent price. I guess it would be better for me to buy a Z5 since its gonna come out pretty soon. A 23 MP camera, finger print scanner, don't know what else but its gonna be damn good! Don't care what the price is, I haven't bought a phone in a long while, and I have more than enough saved up :)

When i was your age i wanted everything now too. I still do! I just have this old man thing telling me to be sensible :D

Hey, I'm quite sensible for my age :P
I mean yeah everyone wants everything, but I have my limits lol.
Title: Re: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: FuyuhotaruP on September 02, 2015, 07:30:39 PM
damn, the Z5 premium has a 4K display
 
if it were me I'd buy the cheaper brands. (using a xiaomi phone and it is still serving me well except for its limited 16GB with no SDcards support)
Title: Re: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: Joel16 on September 03, 2015, 11:30:11 PM
Its damn expensive though. I can surely afford it from what I've saved up, but I think I'll just stick with the regular Z5 for now. Not a fan of big phones, so 5.2 inch should be enough for me.
Title: Re: My mobile phone is nearly dead.
Post by: O:\msg on September 05, 2015, 08:56:42 AM
Not many people would be happy with just 5.2 inch :D

My phone is still awesome, the battery easily lasts two days, and would probably do a third if I was careful.
