LS, Pro or PB

Looking to get chromebook. Would you guys get 2015 Pixel LS, Pixelbook or Samsung Pro? I would want to keep around $7-800 but could go little higher. Or get something else? Any recommendations? Use will be primarily for surfing and light things like media.
Thank you!

Samsung s7 vs Nokia 8

Hello,
So i been a nexus 5 user till the phone worked and the screen broke.
worked well for 3-4 years.
Then i shifted to Redmi note 4 [cause i didn't have the budget to get a better phone]
Now im stuck between two phones since these two phones are easy to use in one hand i cant see of any other phones in the same price range
Nokia 8 is costing 29k[450$]
Samsung s7 25k [400$]
I have tried the oneplus 5t it seemed good but i didn't like the camera and its not easy to use in one hand for me. Yes pixel is a great choice but the card i am gonna be using to purchase these two phones isn't supporting the pixel 1 and pixel 2 is out of range.
So basically i am STUCK with these TWO phones only.
My main focus will be manual camera mode
Since both the phones have a decent screen and good battery im ok with that
not much of an audio person.
The problem is nokia 8 seems to be great and i like the camera too but the problem is since its HMD im not sure if the phone will be that durable, i mean the nokia 6 was a nightmare my friend had it and it would overheat and wouldn't function well.
i plan to use my phone for quite sometime 2years and as to nokia, samsung seems to be more reliable.
the problem with samsung is its an old processor [820] vs 835 kinda.
wont the samsung slowdown after a year or so?
Thus im stuck here.
i dont plan on flashing stock roms and stuff.
im just worried about nokias reliability.
Please advice.

Great. thanks

Come and help me figure out what new phone should be

Country: Serbia/Balkan
Carrier: Unlocked / mts
Price: Off, 300e limit
Size Preference: No more then 5,2'.
What will it be used for: Camera, light usage.
Preferred brands: Don't care as long they update.
Other: Camera better or in range with Huawei p9
Hello,
I will sell my P9 soon, and i will have around 300e to get a new phone. Now, P9 is 2016 flagship, and in camera range (most important for me, because i don't have other camera equipment) closest phones are S7 and 6S.. also price is around 250e ish. Problem is that both (all 3 to be exact) phones are near or damn near eol. That makes me think should i get one of them and then swtich up in maybe 6 months or pick some decent midrange from 2017/2018 and have future proof. As for iOS vs Android i don't really care. Never used iOS tho, that might be fun..and i ususaly set Android stock and minimal as possible. Only social media i use is Instagram and most of my battery went on either music, or browsing reddit. In camera deparment features are not so needed, also i don't do night photos or videos. So still photos and maybe OIS would be nice.

Which brand is the best moddable?

Dear forum,
I am a long term iPhone-User who tends to switch to Android and is fascinated with the possibilities of modding. I also finished my first "project" and rooted/unlocked/customromed an old i9250 from a friend w/ 7.1.2 rom.
As an iPhone user, i am somewhat spoiled with years-long software-updates and i want to stay this way when i'm switching to android.
For now, i researched like 6 months which brand is the best moddable, but the results so far are a little bit depressing.
I can barely find ANY mod for ANY device that does not suffer from "bugs" that make it unusable like battery drain/no 4G/bad camera quality/wifi problems/old Android version/speed problems.
So far, i consider the best moddable devices are from xiaomi and - in a limited way - oneplus.
So I'm asking you, if money and specs ain't a thing and you focus in softwareupdates, which brand would you choose? Is there something i have overseen? Is my attitude wrong, is it normal in android-world to live with the above bugs?
Would appreciate a good advice/critics.

Pixel 2 XL Vs Mate 10 Pro - Opinions/Discussion Needed

I have both, camera is slightly better on the Pixel but I came from the Mate and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The allure to the Pixel is flashable ROMs and long term 2-3 year support. There appears to be a growing movement on Open Kirin to getting more ROMs for the Mate and P series. Really I'd stick with the Mate if I knew there were/are more. I also enjoy the super charging, but I'm also enjoying the fluid stock Android of the Pixel. Huawei has recently announced Pixel like updates.I'll believe it when I see it but I'm optimistic. Quad HD and ambient display don't mean as much to me, I don't travel too much, I get VoLTE on both, and I would enjoy more gestures for the Pixel. I'm a man divided and would welcome some feedback. Im looking to have this phone for around 2 years if not longer.
