Chink phone that will work on straight talk (ATT, TMO, VZW) for about $60 with a working home button--I just don't want to buy my uncle the phone he wants (some garbage Samsung J3 luna pro). Any contenders?

HOW CHOOSE

Right. So: Superior to J3 Luna Pro, working home button, $60. THEN what

Would it be better than the proposed device, though? What do S5s max out at?

OS Support, that is.

Interesting. That might be half-decent.
@spaqin Good idea, really.
I just want him to have a phone that he could use for a couple of years. Unfortunately, they're really cheap. The $100 range is good, but I'd like for him to have a case, too.
If he could just get rid of that desire to use the home button, we would be fine. I wonder if he could use moto's gimmick instead.

i5?

Ah, I see.

Anyone using tested growlights?

Seems like the only thing really worth buying for prime day is that instant pot

https://slickdeals.net/f/11811611 this is looking good, however

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073JYC4XM These are p decent; $26 instead of typical sale price of $33

What are the specs in there?

I'm wondering if there is any value in it other than its intended purpose. 2.5+7 = 10 in dealtalk

Anti-marketing math

I should really get that instant pot, but I'm short as fuck on cash

I have a bunch of hacked 3DSes that I need to sell, but they've only got the 4gb cards in them; I should probably just get 32GB cards

Since it's $11 each for those, instead of $26 for 128gb

It's probably unnecessarily locked down

For that price, though, streaming from PC to TV for only $10-$15 is fucking tight.

It makes me wonder how much logic has been collapsed into hardware, or if it's a single-board-computer inside there running something.

Wish I could have gotten the deal ;-;

ah, i was thinking about it as some terrible way i could hack together a plex service or something for my family's motel

running 10-12 streams off of a beefy server in the networking closet

it's a work in progress

until fiber to the business exists, it's a pipe dream

ah, mother FUCKER

speaking of 3dses, prime day has a 3dsxl NES version deal for $150

this month of all months to have no cash

Also, does anyone here have experience with shirts from china? I want decent material if they're cotton, but fuck paying $25 per shirt and volunteering everywhere to get a wardrobe I can stand

gay, though i prefer non-printed shirts

Fuck this is the best place to ask
I found some headphones in the library

And their name, according to the beats updater app, is “永刚”的Powerbeats

I've translated “永刚”的 to "Yong gang" de

Does this mean they belong to some dude with the last name of Yonggang?

good FUCKING question

it's at a university

so i might just take it back to the library and hope they have a lost and found

who the fuck buys $200 headphones jesus christ

@Jignx lmao

i mean, totally tempting

and that's the other issue, @Julian: verification

i feel like if i turn it into administration it's more likely to be stolen

especially when they discover it's a kid who probably doesn't know english well

@bentech they're gonna STEAL IT THO

nah it'd probably be best

i mean, if i were a student working for shit pay in a rich kid university

ah really?

these are the pb3 it looks like

are those the ones you're referring to?

fucking apple man

also wtf, i just learned that the essential phone ph-1 has the same processor as the pixel 2????

and the v30? and mi 6? and s8?

does every flagship have the same fucking processor these days?

that's fuckin' weird

does that mean you could theoretically plug in the pixel 2 camera to the ph-1

and then flash aosp or something?

@Jignx wtf is the pocophone

i see a lot of media buzz about it

well the headline makes it pretty obvious. why does it have such a recent processor for so little? what's holding it back?

is the screen dogdeath though

ips?

hmm

HMM

seems like it's in super high demand though

one big issue i've noticed with chinkphones is their lack of american band support tho, but if it's an 845

doesn't that mean the radio's inside the soc?

hmm

so where do i source them? has it never changed, and it's best to buy from shit like gearbest?

actually i've wanted to ask about this

are there reliable third-party ROMs for xiaomi phones that don't have fucking miui installed

same

alright time to sleep

moral of the story: register your fucking beats headphones you baby boys

wait hol up

@Jignx so can someone order these online and ship them within china

if i have asian niggas on speed dial, can't i just have them ship it inside of a dragon dildo

build quality and no bezel don't mix nigga

@bentech the s9+ is like $1k, right? the 1+6 is $700, and the pocophone is $300

it's not even a contest

those are such massively different numbers

Anyone bought a TS80 yet? I want one for less than fucking $70

I also want one that uses USB PD instead of qc 3.0

@bentech I would wait until you can get one that actually supports PD

because the current incantation is basically an iteration, not a replacement

the ts100's a nice iron with higher potential power than the ts80

it's been like 2 days

has someone brought the pocophone into the US and carrier tested it, yet

has anyone made any distributed mode speakers?

@Jignx where you coming back to?

now the real question is, is the pocophone across the board better than the essential phone?

ph-1 that is
