Hence why people pile onto the ones that actually get any tangible community support

there are some?

The Xiaomis typically get some form of support from the Cyanogen guys

As well as MIUI support

That's better than most other Chink phones

yeah but xiamis tend to be a bit pricier as well

Yeah

for some reason a fingerprint scanner on the back is so tempting

Which is why I just get refurbed branded phones

I haven't had alot of issues with them

the only reason i'm still with my G3 is because the back controls are way better

I bought a refurbished lenovo tablet once

the really cheap shitty ones

it works for porn and youtube i guess

but mine has times where it's just stuck in a bootloop for 15 minutes

Probably due to the shitty ROM

get a redmi 3

Lenovo isn't known for ROM support

or oneplus one

they have rom support

I'm using their stock android and yeah it's garbage

One+ are very expensive, though

In terms of Chink phones

like i don't mind the OEM 'we want to be apple' interface as long as i can set my launcher

one + is more "premium"

but fucking

I guess

You might as well get refurbed LG G4s

bootloops everytime i reboot

They go for ~ 200 bucks, iirc

depends on where you live i guess

i love how the G3 has a signature crack

same thing on the top of G3s

but fuck having a user removable battery is too sweet

Yeah, that's one of the good thing about the LG phones

The G5 retains that ability

As well as featuring non-fat batteries

Though it sacrifices the length for it

Their EU variants are all unlocked, but I do feel sorry for the Americlaps who have to deal with locked bootloaders

Then again, American providers have always been known to be Jewish

Yeah i'm glad i'm europoor
