Note series has always been the shit though, I had the Note 3 and it was great. But dealing with custom ROMs is a pain and they always have their faults.

Two years of software updates are also guaranteed by Google if its Android One branded.

thats nice

Also I got a tip for you all if you want better chink-tier SSDs

yeah?

Don't

MyMemory currently ships 120GB Kingston and Integral SSDs for 22 GBP

Shipping?

The code for Integral SSD 10% off is valid the rest of the week and it's INTSSD10

With shipping, it's covered by the code, if you live in Germany or England it's free afaik.

The controllers inside is chink-tier, Phison S11

forgot the link https://www.mymemory.co.uk/integral-120gb-p-series-5-sata-iii-ssd-drive-560mb-s.html

just beware there are some reports of this chink shit controller dying in a year

but since Kingston use it and sell it in Western stores now I think it should be reasonably safe

I wonder if people already knew, if not I hope thats useful for somebody. Certainly safer than KingDian (mine died in 2 months?)

the replacement SSD KingDian sent suspiciously looks higher quality than the one I got previously, the memory chips were "modified" so what they did was they put some kind of magic stuff over the chips to hide what make, brand they were. Suspicious. But the new one they did not hide anything on it

FYI the new one have SK Hynix brand chips, and looks new.

sorry for the spam, if anyone bought a phone from GearBest, in particular the Hong Kong warehouse, can you tell me if they splerg all out and put a value above the actual value or are reasonable? The routers I got from a separate warehouse previously were declared accurately without shipping fee so I think they are being 100% honest.

funny to have honest chinks for once EDIT: found a pic in their reviews, seems they will go honest with the tax.

When I ordered my $200 phone they declared the price as $20 and the item as "media player"

nice

On goybest? Julian

guys

I got 12 messages from jesus dick store

is this happening to me too now

@Julian when I got my Note 3 from FANTACY TECHNOLOGY on Ali it was declared as a $25 mp4 player. Even when Russia lets you import upto 2000 EUR per item for personal use so it did not matter what they declared, whew.

2000 damn

@spaqin ye

thats why you see only ruskis in Ali reviews, they love it, no tax

Julian was it a chink warehouse though

I dont get the difference between warehouses on GB, I believe they are different stores. Once I bought an item on Ali from a store that stocked similar items which GB had just very limited, cheaper though, and they sent me the same URL type GB sent out of the item "packaged"

Warehouses are what it says on the tin

When I asked if they were the same as on GB they just replied "maybe we are the same, friend, [blow hearts]"

Different place to start shipping from

ah so let me get it straight different chink warehouses => internal chink shipping to GB platform > GB packages it, adds in small receipt (idk why they do this now) > re-sends it from their central facility to customer independently of the small warehouses/sellers

kind of like AliExpress standard shipping

Idk

Maybe they do send it out straight from the other locations

well they stopped taking pictures of it

how do I deal with spam from jesus dick store, anyone
