your choice of phones

Recommended Posts

iPhone has always been lagging behind in terms of its camera functions and capabilities. So there is really nothing to wow about with its development. I started off with iPhone since the “smart phone” era and switched to android (Samsung) along the way. Couldn’t get used to the ecosystem and switched back to iPhone. I guess it’s a matter of preference and lifestyle choices now and agree with the resale value being one of its perks. 

Be cool, like a breeze...

You can look up photo comparisons for multiple flagship devices these days. The differences in photo qualities are often minute and the stand-out functionalities for the camera are often niche. Choosing a mobile device should be viewed from a holistic standpoint, not only from the camera functionality. If the camera functionality is of utmost importance to you, nothing beats having an actual camera that takes far better quality photos.

Many reasons. iPhone has resell value. Apple has aftersaies warranty extension which the expensive phones do not provide. U don't hear complaints of iPhone having lines on screen. 

Many of features are actually not needed. 

For me , i rather buy iPhone or cheaper china ones. Even though I don't like their proprietary software OS eg. XIAOMI

Avoid buying high end Android phones which the green line issue is common among them.

 

I suspect it's due to a common competent from a same vendor that all the brands are buying from. The best part is they still haven't figured which is the one.

 

Green line is not covered by warranty if I'm not wrong.

It's not covered under warranty. Seen few phones w that on the trains.  Not worth the money when U gotta change phones every 2 years

Agreeing with the mediocre features of iPhone. But Samsung phones quality is not consistent- both my galaxy phone and Samsung don’t work well. 
 

recently I tried out Xiaomi phone, for a year it’s meeting the expectation.

Which Android phone is good?

 

I did not know if I use anti privacy screen protector for my Honor phone, the biometric sensor will not work.

Maybe you can take a look at Oneplus 13?

 

With regards to the finerprint sensor not working..

  • Choose a Screen Protector with High Touch Sensitivity: Look for screen protectors specifically designed for phones with fingerprint sensors, as they are often optimized for touch sensitivity. 
  • Re-register your fingerprints: After applying a new screen protector, it may be necessary to re-register your fingerprints with your device.

- But do you have a problem with the new Hyper OS? Find that the system is slightly slower and some screen functions are less intuitive than in the past e.g. screen goes crazy and opens unused apps if, say, two places are accidentally touched at the same time...

Have been using POCO M6 (Xiaomi HyperOS) for the past 2 months. Excellent performance all round, and at $190, it was very affordable.

Living well is the best revenge.

Is Honor really that bad?  I was told it was previously part of Huawei.

I have been using a Huawei Mate Pro phone for 6 years already, and it is running excellently well without any hiccups.

 

Thinking of getting Honor for ease of migrating my apps as they are about the platform.

 

Any users of Honor 200 Pro care to comment?  The Magic 6 is way too expensive.  Thanks.
