rn4 problems

@transience on my nexus 5 it felt like there was nothing, perfect

2.5D is a mistake

I wish manufacturers just wouldn't

It feels comfy as fuck to hold though

curved and edgeless displays look neat as fuck and all but it costs a fortune to get it replaced if you break it

was 300 euros for my friends s7 a month back

New phones are a bitch to repair in general

chinkphones arent <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

Gone are the days where you can get everything done with a screwdriver set

You need a heatgun, double sided tape and some epoxy to glue the display to glass

i wonder if those dickdocks would sell gold on university

and manufacturers like apple are consciously making there phones impossible to repair

especially by 3rd parties

same goes for their laptops

That's why you never buy applel

repairabilty is the main thing i lookf for in my shit tbh

although i did get a rn4

At least they're cheap to replace

And upgrading every one-two years still costs less than buying an equal spec phone from a carrier

the construction of the notes isnt that advanced, will cost me about 25 euros to get my screen replaced

but it would cost 40 if I didnt know a guy and couldnt use chinkshit

Doesn't seem that much if you compare it to the 300 of the s7

But that's 40% of the cost of a redmi 4

Want to into electronics, are there any good "starter kits" on chink sites that are worth it and won't be DOA

whatchu mean electronics

like rasp pi and shit?

led spinners

Just circuits right now

Was gonna get into Arduino later

Chink soldering kits are pretty cheap and good, you can get a screwdriver kit from a chink or a local hardware store for pretty much the same price

Just get a breadboard, resistors, leds and loads of wires

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks lads 👍

@Deleted User DIY christmas tree is nice if you want to get into soldering

Depending on what you're planning to assemble you might want some 18650 batteries and other crap as well

fidget spinners

anyone here have a touchscreen laptop? looking to pick one up for school

I have a windows tablet, and I can tell you windows and touch doesnt go together
