even if its just to "neighboring country" its still shit tons of post stamps
Any great value 100-200 phones you'd recommend? I personally bought a 270$ mi 9t and I love it but it's a lil high end for the person I'm buying for
I think my chinky car phone mount wants to fuck
Is it better to get those magnetic ones ore the other type with the clamp
Depends on your phone
I can't use a magnetic one because of my special slowflake phone
Yeah it always seemed weird to have a magnet right on your shit. what makes your phone incompatible with the magnet?
2 screens
What model
ZTE Axon M
@neetdev mi a series
they come with android one i believe
around 200 usd
just overall decent phone
I'll check it
So far it's looking like a Moto g or umidigi phone
Moto G series is usually nice, budget mostly vanilla-ish Android
Xiaome Mi A2 is excellent for the price as well, and it's Android One. Not sure if it's getting 10 or not. I think the 64GB/4GB model is $170ish.
There's a 32GB/3GB too. I think. There's definitely 3 models, I think they were 32/3, 64/4, 128/6.
Man the a3 would be absolutely perfect if it wasn't for no nfc
same here
nfc is more or less a must
~~especially since my bank card broke~~
no NFC is such a fucking deal-breaker now
like I use my phone as both my bank card and the botnet rewards card at shops AND my public transport card
USA is so far behind on a lot of places accepting contactless payment, and a lot of banks don't even issue NFC cards if you don't pay extra/have a "premium" account
the fuck
I have 6 cards, and 0 (zero) of them have contactless/nfc
My parents have had contactless payment on their cards since around 2012-2013 onwards
My original card didn't but when I changed plans with my bank for a better (((interest rate))) they gave me a proper NFC card
didnt the eu or some non-american group of countries push for chip and pin for cards
Still waiting for the day when there's some kind of Monocard that can hold multiple card info at the same time, so you don't need to rely on your phone
Chip and pin SUCKS for user convenience
Those chips wear out so fucking fast
Such thing exists Matty, it's called the NFC Chameleon
It's a card with 8 card slots and you can swap between them at any time
Only my Amex and PayPal business debit card do NFC, the other 10 don't.
@Droidbot yes, and if I pull that out in a store, they're gonna call the fucking cops
We just updated to accept chipped debit at work. Fucking sad.
@timsandtoms Mine STILL is swipe-only
