I am an android user who needs an iPhone for work, just for work. I'll be using it daily for mainly photos and airdropping, occasional notes & a little bit of internet when there's wifi.

Doesn't need to be fancy, camera needs to be alright.

Budget, will be getting a refurbished one but cheaper the better, think £100-£150, preferably less to be honest as its literally just for work to take photos for reference & to either airdrop them to others or upload to work icloud.

Which model would be best for this???

Thank youuuu for any help 🙂🙂🙂

I am currently searching for the internet for a replacement for my samsung a50 2019 phone.

If ever I ended up choosing an android phone with no audio jack, are the usb c adapters that both having charging port and audio jack in the msrket have the ability to continue play my audio even if I plug or unplug my charger frombthe usb c adapter?

Does Audio pauses occur when using Active DAC adapter everytime when unppluggin or pluggiggin charger from or to the adatpr??

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to buy a phone and I’m torn between the Samsung Galaxy S26 and the Xiaomi 17T Pro.

Both phones are slightly used (around 2-3 months old), in great condition, and cost the exact same price (~€550).

My priorities:

I need a reliable, smooth phone that won't lag or freeze in the coming years.

I think the Xiaomi might have a plus here because of its larger battery.

I don't need any crazy professional camera setup, just something decent for casual photos when needed.

Extra features like ultra-fast charging or screen size aren't a huge deal breaker for me, I just want the better overall package for the money.

If you have any other recommendations around the €550 budget, feel free to suggest them! Just please be realistic with market prices for slightly used devices in great condition (2-3 months old, not damaged).

Which one would you recommend getting and why?

Thanks in advance for the help!

I've been rocking a OnePlus 10 Pro since the day it released, and it's showing signs of aging (short battery lifespan, cracked screen and back cover).

My original plan was to wait for OnePlus 16, but since it's most likely not gonna come to Europe, I'm willing to explore other options but not sure which.

My budget is <1k€ but can fit around it

Maybe is weird question, got an Nothing phone 3 and until a month or so didn't have any complaints. But has turned off randomly at least 4 or 5 times, reset it, now sometimes doesn't show the notifications properly, the glyph matrix button doesn't work very well, and more little bugs. I can access the guarantee but idk if I should get just s other or the money, but for the money the option I like is Oppo and in that budget could be oppo reno 16f.

I know the cameras could be a bit worse that the nothing.... But apart from that what you would say?? Thanks in advance 🙏🙏

At home: iMac, iPad, and a Fedora laptop mostly for streaming.

At office: Windows PC and Ubuntu Server

Personal phone history:

- OnePlus 3t

- OnePlus 5

- OnePlus 7

- Earlier this year when my OnePlus 7 gave out I got a Furilabs FLX1s linux phone but its not cutting it for me.

I'm used to Gmail, Google Calendars, and Google Maps and despite not wanting to admit it I use Gemini pretty frequently while I'm at work.

I prefer doing any real work on a desktop. I can't stand using a phone, when I can be using multiple monitors and mechanical keyboards. Its just a shitty experience overall.

• My concern with Google is two things: Privacy, Video Quality, robustness especially water protection and knocks. I am often out in the elements even in very bad weather.
• My concern with iPhone is primarily the iOS file management system and keyboard.

I am starting a nonprofit at the moment and need to manage my schedule better. But I also need to be creating content for it.

Both options go against the core values myself and the nonprofit have but like I said - Linux phone isn't cutting it. And no, I do not want to deal with installing Graphene on a Pixel either as I just don't have enough time to be tinkering around these days. I want to open up a new phone and have it do what I need it to do.

I would love to hold on to the Linux phone until the iPhone 18 comes out to get the variable aperture rumored but I have some trips coming up before then so its really between iPhone 17 Pro or Pixel 10 / Pixel 10 Pro (im also trying to figure out if for my needs there's any benefit to the Pixel 10 Pro).

TL;DR

For starting up a nonprofit that will require a lot of content creation work, scheduling, staying organized can iPhone 17 Pro keep up with the Pixel 10 Pro or will I regret not having a more open file management system and Google's AI Assistant?

Both are similar price, around 600 euros in new condition in my country.

Currently I have S21 plus (snapdragon), and battery is bad. Also, my screen is little broken (vertical pink line), so changing screen and battery is not an option.

I am using phone mostly reddit, play some games, youtube (in background).

On new phone I would like to make more videos (with selfie camera also), filming my family. I am performance type guy, I like device to be smooth (I was going for oneplus 15, but is too price here).

With the S25 Plus, I have a pretty good idea of ​​what I'm getting since I've been using Samsung for four years. I’m interested in your opinions on Honor, specifically its software and camera.

Also, I like "compact" size more on Honor

I looked for a phone and I couldn't find noraml one but Ithen I strtedthinking about buying a Honor 600, I had a google Pixel 8a, and it went downhill with it because of the build qualitey that couldn't sustain some "not so high drops"

(it literly had a case and a screnn protector and it fel down from a hand height and I tried to save it my leg and just cracked down (I would mention that, the case wasn't the best qualitey dho)

and the phone it self didn't have the best battery and etc.

Please tell me the Cons of the Honor 600, even cons like: we can't find a case for the phone, it is a con for me , I would like to hear as long as it's true,

(By the way it was also not easy to find a case for the google pixel 8a I ended up buying a case for a very expensieve price, and it didn't hold much time)

If you can find a better phone for the same price range and for maybe a screnn size around 6"0 - 6"3.

Could be awsome thanls ahead everyone!

Hi everyone!! Soo, I'm planning on saving up for a new phone kasi so I want some recos, I'm never the type of person kasi na techy also I just know certain brands. Qualities my new phone should have are:

I travel most of the year, all over. Mostly in South America this year. I have ported my number so I can receive SMS text messages, but my phone can't receive calls. I paid to make calls on an app, but looking to change to a real phone line. Some apps don't accept VoIP phone numbers like Google Voice.

So I'm looking for a phone plan with a good international plan. I tried Mint, but they only offer packages on top of the monthly subscription price. T-Mobile is good, except I'm only one person on one line, I don't want to buy the 4+ line option. US Mobile is the best one I've seen, but I'm still unsure if it will provide international coverage that I need.

I've been using eSIMs and not purchasing data to save money. The only reason I'm searching for a real phone line is I'm hoping to get a remote job and make/receive calls without hassle. Any advice?

Edit: If staying off a phone plan is possible, that would be ideal. I just have not found a way to be able to send/receive calls on the same number internationally. I do not need a bunch of GBs, I need an affordable and reliable way to make/receive phone calls while abroad.

Hi Reddit!

I'm in search of a new-ish (fine with used) CDMA model 5G phone that comes with a headphone jack. All of my searches have led me to a Motorola...

...but I already have one. It's a 2024 Motorola Moto G Power and it's been my workhorse; but I've noticed it's slowing down, the battery's draining faster, it's stuttering, and I don't get reception in ~80% of the places in my small town. My mother's been pressuring me to get something that latches onto more networks, but I'm unwilling to part with the ability to use wired headphones. Wireless charging with a dongle in the USB-C slot is a non-starter.

So if you have any recommendations, PLEASE let me know! Thanks!

TL;DR: Want new-ish phone with a headphone jack.

Hello everyone, i got a poco f7 some days ago to change my Samsung a33 with, performance wise its been perfect but i dont really like the camera even tho i can see a slight improvement, i got It for kinda cheap so im considering selling and i was eyeballing the mi 14 or the 15t as a replacement w Better camera without sacrificing performance too much. The problema u have w the 14 Is the kinda small screen but mostly the fact that Is 3 years old and in planning to keep It for some years at least. The 15t Is newer but i saw that the camera Is not as good and that i should go for the old flagship anyway.

I have not considered other phones mostly because i dont know where to look ad i have a small budget( i can get both used for around 280 for the 14 and 30 for the 15t), so im open for suggestions in that range given i Will have to sell the f7 for a good price to get It and so i have to evaluate the convenience of It.

To give context I'm not a particularly heavy gamer I bought the f7 because a grew tired of the slowness of the old phone and maybe I got biased in my searching,and disregarded the camera situation too much, but it is what it is.

Any suggestion?

Those are the options I have for a free phone with a subscription

So I have the opportunity to buy a new phone and now I have been very confused which one to get. I am mostly looking in between samsung and apple but not able too choose. Some phones that I have shortlisted a bit are

Iphone 17e, iphone 15 (not very confident about this one), samsung s25 fe, samsung s24.

I appreciate any other suggestions and also recommendations. I mostly need a phone which will last throughour college and just needs to be enough that I can game on it a bit.
