so it seems that i have just about had it with my mate 7. if someone would have told me of the lack of custom roms i would not have bought it. having said that, its a new year with new phones rocking snapdragon 820!!! YAY!!! so, anyone know of any good 6 inch phones coming out soon? im currently looking at the Oppo R7 Plus and the ZTE Axon Max but like i said, im hoping for a phone with an SD820. anyway, any and all suggestions are welcome. thanks!
Just look at the news section of the XDA site. They're at MWC 2016 right now, looking at the new releases.
I have been looking at MVC I think this year was a huge disappointment. Vivo Xplay 5 was biggest surprise.
LG G5 was a nice concept..it is just that the LG lack totally any sense of elegant design.. it looks not good on the back..
camera and performance is probably good, but the battery performance is probably not good (and no I will not carry a extra battery in my pocket)
S7 I think they will suceed with most things, good battery life, best display..
Why I will not buy S7 is the price.. and Samsung software..I can't stand it..
I am not a huge fan of samsung design and form factor..
I regret I did not buy the Mate 8 in november now..I will now buy the Mate 8, the mocha brown version. I was so sure I would buy the gold version but..after much thinking..I will go with the mocha brown.
What's wrong with your M7?
I'd like a Mate 8 myself, it's a beast!
But I don't need one.
The Mate 7 does what I need. It's a nice phone.
If you want to update but your M7 is running ok, I'd wait a month or two and see what new models are released.
Well if official marshmallow had been released by now I might have kept the mate 7 for a while

I use Smart Launcher Pro. It's the only launcher I have found that properly supports full rotation and re-organisation of lockscreen and homescreen. I use it in landscape in the car and that one feature is a must have.
I removed the Huawei launcher. Just garbage without the app drawer. Why cripple the device so iSheep can use it?

CM12 or stock android should have been pre installed.
CM12 or higher would be great
But so unlikely to ever happen and support all hardware properly

and this is why i will never buy another huawei phone...... at least not one that doesn't have a snapdragon soc. if only huawei released their phones with snapdragon soc's for north america.
Hey, give Huawei a chance. The hardware rocks, but the software lacks polish. Wait for a few more releases and I'm sure Huawei will release a phone with a software that's par with other brands.

I'm like you. I want a 6" display. And i'm bored by huawei roms. I want a snapdragon with custom's rom.
But with 6" display... Vivo was exciting, but just 5,5 finally.
Samsung A9 and A9 pro were great but not released in EU...
I'm really waiting for Oppo R9. Seems to have a 6" display like Oppo r7 plus but with s820...
At 9-th Mart will be present Huawei P9 Max - rumored 6.3" display.

this was my hope as well but it seems that the R9 wont have an SD820. from recent pictures it also looks like it will have a front facing fingerprint scanner which is a major turn off for me. it looks like ill have to wait to see what ZTE does.

I hesitated for a long time between the M7 and the R7 Plus , ended up with the R7 Plus and so far i'm very impressed , the official CM12.1/CM13 support is very nice , it has a Snapdragon 615 which is of course less powerful than the 820 but it results in an astounding battery life , lasting a full day and well into the second day. Good luck with whatever choice you make. :silly:

thanks for the advice. at the moment it seems like the R7+ might be my next phone. im still going to wait to see what zte has to offer before i buy anything. tbh, i dont mind the processor size as long as its a snapdragon and has at least 3GB of ram with expandable storage ill be fine.

The hell, why you put Honor 8 and Oneplus 3T with S7 Edge ? If you want performance and good gpu, i would say Oneplus 3T, if you want design, Honor 8. If you want to look rich but have no ideea how good are other smartphones that cost half the price of an S7 Edge, go get it. I would buy a Oneplus 3T too,but i'm not going to way 2 month until they deliver it and i'm not going to pay 500+ euros in other stores for a 64gb Oneplus 3T. Tomorrow i'm going to get the Honor 8,it's more than enough for me and i consider myself a person who really want something good from a smartphone. It's your choice.

Start was clear. But by the ending I'm confused. Hope the questioner has got his answer.
From my point of view,
1. To show off your money - Go for S7 Edge
2. To show off a good color get the good camera - Go for Honor 8
3. To get the good performance - Go for OP3T.
I have seen that OP3T lags during some of the games which is unexpected. Hope so OTA fixes it soon.
oneplus
If you want some good development, OP3T is the best choice. But if you are not for rooting and custom ROMs, you can decide that for yourself.
i can recomended u to use S7 really . i dont like samsung but i really tried it 2 days ago and i like it . tomorrow i can confirm if honor 8 better or not cause honor 8 will arrive tomorrow evening ! .

I want to replace my Nexus 6 with a new phone.
I really love the screen of the nexus 6 but it's time to move on!
So i thought of the S8 of S8+.
But what is the beter size compared with the nexus 6?
And i live in the Netherlands so is the phone able to install costum roms?, After rooting ofcourse.

No!
There probably won't be any development anytime soon if any at all with new Samsung phones.
If custom Rom and Root is your thing, then your best bet is Oneplus 3 or 3T, IMHO.

There will be for him because where he is they get the exynos version.
And obviously the s8plus is a better match for the nexus 6 screen size.

Hi,
The Oneplus One was a great phone, it's been almost 4 years but it's the end, I broke it, the screen and the camera ... broken, the screen isn't responding anymore, the frame all around is in bad shape too .... I took care of it, there was no scratch, but i broke it at work trying to fix desk -_-
First of all I want to thanks the xda Oneplus One community, it's been fun ... Cyanogen 4.4 KitKat to Android Oreo 8.1 Always someone to help, with developers who do their utmost to give us the best :good: .
I'm actually using my old Nexus 4 for now but i'm thinking to buy the Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus.
Do you guys have a suggestion for a new phone that I can buy ??? (The Oneplus Five is too expensive for me unfortunately )
PS: English is not my native language, sorry for any spelling mistakes
PS: Just realized i'm in the wrong section -_- should be in "ONE Q&A, HELP & TROUBLESHOOTING", Sorry about that
hi,
i had a oneplus one too until recently, i got a xiaomi mi a1. i can recommend it!
Hello,
I have the oneplus one from 4 year old too and it work perfectly (never change any parts).
I think change for the new oneplus six, but seriously I don't need more, the one is good for me.
Big thanks to the xda community, for developers, this smartphone survive a long time.
I've considered changing too, but I finally decided to keep my one a couple of years more (if possible). This said, right now I would pick Redmi 5 Plus in the lower tier, Nokia 7 Plus in the middle one or LG v30 as top device at a good price.
Good luck with your choice, but keep in mind nothing will actually replace your One. It was like the girl of your like ??
Budget phone definitely Xiaomi Mi A1
I would recommend Xiaomi mi6 or if you can wait for mi7 (This would be my choises if my bacon got rotten)

Both the parts(screen and camera) are available on eBay. Replace yourself and bring your OPO back to life. Anyway,going for Redmi Note 5(3gb variant) or Redmi Note 5 Pro would be a better choice than Redmi 5 Plus.The former one costs just a little over Redmi 5 Plus.
I'm quite interested in MiA1 or maybe Nokia 6 2018
I'm still using my OPO sinc oct 2014, even if i dropped it in the water( only the front camera broke, even after changing it iti didnt get fixed, maybe it's something else like the connector or a resistance ...) and i was planning to change it for the 1+6 but after seeing it will have a notch i changed my mind and i hope my opo will survive another 2 years lool because sincerly it's a beast, if i compare it to phones from the same year( Z2, S5, M8) it's the only one who is still working perfectly and smoothly( i see my friends whith the phones i'vve mentionned strugling lol), thanks to this incredibly community, so i hope i don't brake it or get stolen or brake itself for another 2 years, but for you what can i say, cant' you for exemple find a used 3T?? it's a very good phone even if it's not the new one
The great thing about Oneplus One has been the developer community which has been keeping the phone after so many years.
Does any current phone has such a developer community?
Xiaomi note 5 pro is a good budget phone with good camera.Heard Mi A2 is expected to launch next month but has a less battery and may not have support of Google.
Essential phone has been on sale in various countries.. check it out.
I would highly suggest Nokia phones otherwise.. budget + fastest updates after Google pixel series of course.

Nokia would have been a very good choice only if they allowed unlocking bootloader and released kernel sources of all their devices.
Source - https://www.xda-developers.com/hmd-global-kernel-sources-bootloader-unlocking/
They released kernel sources for a few devices but still no official way to unlock bootloader.
