what is the best smartphone?
| any xiaomi phone is 70% cheaper and 50% better.
never had a phone which didn't break after at least 2 years. through me being dumb or phone just dying.
my xiaomi has a a little broken glass since over a year which didn't get bigger, some water got inside and its still working perfect, I'm getting updates frequently, etc.
Just resarch for your needs on which xiaomi phone is the best for yourself.
the redmi 5 + is cheap, 4k videos, hd screen, supreme processor, 4gb ram, 64gb disc
| >>243170 for 170 dollar
or the xiaomi mi is their flagship so its even better, costs about 350 dollar
| this one looks nice. I was thinking about getting this moto x. Its design is p cool.
Xiaomi is well designed too. hmmm sou many doubts.

| >Don't trust samsung
>Consider buying chinese phone
| does samsung still has a buttload of bloatware and their phone still full of pricey feature no one really needs (*cough* oled *cough*)?
| The best smart phone is : don't have one
| I want that 3d hologram phone. Hydrogen or whatever
| >>e592fd oled is one thing, having a dedicated button for a "personal assistant" that can't be rebound is another thing.
| Chinese phones sound good on paper (specs), but in my experience they never last long and performance degenerates after a few months.
| Wait for Librem 5 phone. Everything else on mass-market is literal botnet, it's better to not own a "smart" phone completely.

Same with every phone I had. BUT Xiaomi.
Xiaomi just works without getting worse, not getting updates or just dying. Really, its the best phone I've ever had!

I'm afraid that might be kinda true. My dad's Redmi 2 still works just as well as it did day one.
| xperia z3 is great. Been having one for about 4 years and its still tiptop.
| Just install a custom rom and then you won't have any Samsung bloatcrap
| I'm currently using the Sony Xperia X Compact. Am pretty content with it so far and it ain't expensive. But if you want a newer model maybe go with the XZ1 Compact. The XZ2 has no Audio Jack. Rip.
| Nexus phones seem to be good, I think those are the only phones were you can install google-free operative systems, at least without the effort of learning how to port the OS.
| Using a Huawei Honor 4X or 5X. Too lazy to take off my case and check. Been using it for a few years now. No issues, does everything I need it to and more. Got it for $100 on sale I think.
| I'm currently using an HTC 10. Not as common or cheap as these other phones but it's literally the best phone I've ever had and I had an iPhone 5 and Galaxy S5 before.
| If you don't trust Samsung, then you shouldn't trust any smartphone, I'd recommend a dumb phone / feature phone.
| I have a cheap ZTE that I was got for free. I'd like to root it and install a different mobile OS on it. I want to get away from Google botnet.

| My phone is p old now and I have money enough to change to one better now. I didn't really want to switch but after 7y my actual smartphone is finally fucked. (press F to pay respect)
I do not trust Samsung and I'm used to motorola, but if it is good...
