[Q] Which to choose? Oneplus One vs Xiaomi MI4 - General Topics

HI to everyone! For christmas i was planning on buying a new cellphone. I have a budget of 400 dollars , and i was undecided between the Oneplus One and the Xiaomi MI4. I know that there are a lot of threads that referring to this argument but each one of them is different. However both the cellphones have high specs and they are so similar that i can't choose. I'd like a cellphone that is fast, is open to modding (as i really like always changing ROMs), but most of all i want a device that is durable since i would have to keep tit for at least 2 years. If there are others devices good as them for that price feel free to say.
Thanks in advance

Mi4 works great. Hope i replied in time lol

What Tablet Should I Buy?

Hey guys,
So I need to buy 5 tablet for my workplace.
It needs to have Windows 8 (not RT or professional, I can't remember how the third one called).
I don't have budget limit, but it should be matter of budget and performance, which means, I rather hear options of tablets, their price and performance, I'll decide what's best for my workplace.
The best tablet for me will be one with medium budget and maximum performance.
Thanks Guys!

[Q] Best rom friendly Smartphone under $200?

Hey guys, im currently using an HTC One m8, but im thinking about getting a secondary device to thinker with, i want to spend around $200 USD
i mainly be using this phone to try out roms and use my secondary sim card, i was looking to get a Xiaomi Mi3, but it seems to be a little more expensive here in the US, i was also considering getting a used Nexus 4, what do you guys think would be a good option?
I'm using a nexus 4, and a used nexus 4 would be great for tinkering, it is a fantastic device. Lots of ROMS and great support from the developer community.

Help choosing device

Hello all. I am unsure if this question belongs in this sub-forum. I have been through the QUESTIONS DO NOT BELONG IN GENERAL post, but i think this is not a Q&A.
So the reason i have this question is that im at a standstill. I was set to buy the Nexus 6, but the size and price made me change my decision.
Anyway, now i have rethink and im undecided between the Nexus 5 and the Oneplus one. The main reason im undecided is related to roms and software.
By looking at the N5 sub-forum here in XDA i see thousands of posts when compared to the OPO. I am worried that even though being a bit less heavy spec-wise the N5 might keep more developers working on it then on the OPO. Therefore more roms and software for the future.
Related to hardware i know the opo has better specs. Rounding up the HW differences what makes me undecided between the two is the RAM and the better battery life.
So iam currently stuck between these two phones and ill have to make a decision soon, i will be buying one of these in about two weeks.
Thank you for everyones help.
Best regards
you can go for samsung note 4 it`s so good
personally, between those two, I'd go with the Nexus 5 (just barely) for the exact reason you said: dev support.
Now if it was Nexus 6 and Oneplus One, I'd go Oneplus no question because of the price difference yet great specs on the One.
not matter what ,if i want to buy a new phone ,i will buy the latest
model for certain brand,if the latest model cannot satisfy my needs with their
price or size ,i will go for the latest model of other brand .that is my suggestion,
guessing samsung latest model is good .

The One Plus One is an exceptionally good piece of kit for the price and runs cyanogenmod which is a fantastic OS
Hello everyone and thank you for the replies.
I have decided to go with the One, i have been going through lots of forum posts lately reading from persons who changed from N5 to One, and in the bigger picture most ppl are calling it a good decision and a improvement.
It seems to me that the N5 is really a good phone, and imo its a better looking phone then the One, but following all my readings, the screen and the Ram in the One make a solid improvement over the N5.
Regarding my biggest concern, the software devs, well im just going to have faith in the One community. :angel: The device already runs one of the most popular roms and i have recently found out that the One is a supported phone for the franco kernel.
All in all i think im doing a good decision.
Right now im crazily sourcing funds to buy it, while i wait for my invite...
Choose OnePlus , it's a monster .
I personally like the Stock Interface more than custom UI's .

[Completed] Umi Zero vs Xiaomi Redmi 2 - what makes most sense?

Hi all,
Not sure what area of XDA this belongs in but would greatly appreciate some form of a reply to help me in my decision to get a new phone.
I have narrowed down my choices to the Umi Zero and the Xiaomi Redmi 2. I have had great experiences with a Redmi 1s, especially after putting Cyanogenmod with Lollipop 5.1 on it. As such I know this is a phone that is reliable and would expect the Redmi 2 to be similar in that regard although Cyanogenomd is not yet available for it.
The Umi Zero seems like a real giant killer but I know so little about Umi. I have read great reviews about this phone but wonder if people on here who have used it could recommend it? I don't have money to waste so it would need to be a phone that will last me for a considerable amount of time and has quality hardware and software.
The best prices on both put the phones close to each other on price so any opinions from the good people on here would help me to make my decision...
Thank you all!

What should I buy?

Hi guys!
I'm using an old iPhone 4 and its getting worse and worse day by day. I'm planning to change my phone. iPhone 6S, SGS 6 Edge+, HTC One M9 and xperia z3+ are in my mind but i couldn't make a choice between these ones. I used to use Huawei U8650 before so I know the Android environment.
iOS is smooth and stable but its quite expensive to buy now. Could you help me please?
Thanks!
