5g vs 4g camera - General Questions and Answers

Although the 4g has higher MP camera than the 5g. I have seen a few youtube videos claiming the 5g takes better pics. Looking for feedback or if anyone has tried botth cameras
Thank you
Rob

What brand / model are you referring to?

Sorry, the reason I didn't mention the brand or model was because I had posted this under the specific tab/folder for the phone I was inquiring about. I thought the question would be specific to the tab I chose. It is the Samsung A32

How to find out what bands for 2G/3G phone uses?

I have a fake galaxy note 4 with fake specs listed. How do I find out the real bands of 2G/3G my phone uses? Apps like hardware specs are no help, already tried.
Sent from my Galaxy Note 4........FAKE! Admit it, you thought I had money for a second didn't you?

At&t or Verizon

In a few months I'm looking to buy this phone from Amazon and I was wondering if it worked with At&t or Verizon prepaid and will I get 4g Lte. If not what's a good carrier I can use this phone on. Also does it have WiFi calling?
I have this phone on AT&T in NY. It works but is very spotty because only 1 LTE band is available within the hardware. You'll get great pictures on it (which is why i wanted it to take better shots of the family) but you'll sometimes miss phone calls unless you are in a good area. In retrospect I should have researched a bit more and gone with maybe the xiaomi mi 9 for a bit more money and same camera. It has several more bands available for AT&T but no microsd card. If you can live with the spotty reception its very good for the price.
check out the site kimovil for bands on the phone.. google "redmi note 7 pro bands"

Thanks for the reply but the service is not that great where I live. I'll probably get the umidigi f1 play because it's supposed to have 48mp camera with micro SD because I need my expandable storage lol

Seems like a good choice with all the bands it has. Hopefully, some custom roms come along as maybe I'll switch to that too.

I'm considering getting this phone next

I was surprised how well this phone is supported on XDA and it looks quite good on paper, i have 1 question i cannot find answer to:
Does this phone support Carrier Aggregation in Europe? (4G+)
It you buy EU version then yes. If you buy India, China (RMQ) or any other version than EU then definitely not. So I heard.

Nice. But in my country mi 9 lite 6gb and realme xt 8gb are similarly priced. If I decides to increase my budget then I will go for realme xt. Sd712 over sd710.
According to realme support no it doesn't.
Also I'm based in Italy and can confirm you there is no sign of 4g+ even though I live near a Tri-Band bts (3-7-20) and my place is full of two and three bands bts.
Considering to return the phone for exactly this reason. My old op3t had full 4g+ in the same position

I still can't believe eu version doesn't support 4g+. I mean did you check sites if they show whether or not this device supports it or not? I mean I definitely did before buying but I only see which bands does the device support. Not the technology (3g and 4g is present but I don't see 4g+). If you didn't check for it then why did you buy? If you did check but it was written to be present but it is not, shouldn't you get s full refund or device return + refund??

I can't believe it either, it was a BIG surprise to see it lacks it. In 2019, ANY and i mean ANY device you buy got a form of CA, even a Huawei MTK I just bought for dad for 99 euros. Of course this is also specified, for example as you can see there is mention for LTE-A (which is LTE+)
https://www.gsmarena.com/realme_5_pro-9801.php
I couldn't believe it so I sent an email to Realme customer service asking if the phone indeed supported LTE-A like specified and like supported by its chipset (snapdragon 712 is a 3*20mhz capable chipset) and they replied "realme 5 pro doesn't support LTE+"
Then, after more than TEN days, they replied again to the same email by saying that they were sorry for the previous reply and that the phone DOES support LTE+ (is this a professional service?)
I asked them how I can check which bands gets aggregated and why there is no sign of a 4g+ or lte+ icons like all other phones and... they never replied
I've read around that Realme support is a total crap, but I really tried and hoped they can answer about specs of a phone they produce and sell directly.
To dig further another guy here on xda sent some network guru screenshots where it is clearly shown that it only can catch a single band and not multiple.
So at this point I'm thinking about it. I've got until 31/01/2020 to be able to get a full refund but kinda I still like the phone speed, but this network problem and the camera (which is the worst 48Mpixel sensor I've ever tried, but it seems to be a software issue) kills my willingness to keep it. I was also waiting if any new update can fix either of the problems so I guess I'll wait a lil more, but still I can't advice to buy this phone. Xiaomi on the same price level doesn't have any of these major issues even though their chipsets are a little behind.

Wow... Just wow. All these bits and pieces of info are priceless and shocking to me. Thank you. Me too, I prefer the speed of the phone, the battery and ufs file storage, furthermore vooc charging. Amazingly conformable for my hand as well. Overall I'm really in love with it but kind of hate it at the same tine. My major problems are camera and connectivity. Both are extremely crucial when you take a look at a smartphone. Btw even oneplus uses the same sensor as our device. A developer of rm5p guessed that perhaps the difference is using different lens, not the sensors. I'm not sure. Anyway, we know more now at least. It's a start.

They are not similarly priced at all, mi 9 lite was on sale for 45,000 which is much cheaper than xt 54,000, sd712 vs sd710 very slight difference but 9 lite has its own advantages such as better selfie cam.
If you are looking to buy mi 9 lite box pack you can contact me, I can get you a good deal.

Boost Mobile Compatibility

Hi All,
Pardon if this has already been asked but I cannot find a similar topic specific to the question below. There is a lot of development around this phone and I would like to get back onto a phone similar to this.
Can any Oneplus 7 Pro phone be used on the Sprint network or is there a specific submodel that needs to be purchased?
There does not appear to be this phone or the 5g version being sold anywhere I look (GM1917 and GM1925). I am specifically looking for a phone that has 8+ GB of ram, 8xx snapdragon chipset (66x+ chpset) and decent custom roms available. There appears to be the T-Mobile Mclaren edition (HD1925) but again, this phone is a different model and is technically a different subforum. Either way, the question above is the simple question I am looking to be answered.
Thanks all for the support!
The Sprint version would probably be best.
Sent from my OnePlus 7 Pro using XDA Labs
Thank you for the reply. The issue is (and why I am posting about it) is that I cannot find the sprint specific phones online. Calling up the local Sprint store, they say have one in stock. I have the S10 and have little motivation to dump more money in a new phone. I was wondering if a generic unlocked phone can work. It does not appear that many people have the answer though.

Rootable phones 2021

I am looking for a new phone. It must be easily rootable, probably using Magisk, so I can record calls. Recovery would be nice, too.
It must have a micro sd slot, so I can easily
back it up so if I have to factory reset it, my texts, call history, Pictures, etc. will not be lost. I would like it to be usable with any US
Carrier. Regardless, it must work with AT&T. Maybe dual sim, not a deal breaker if it's not. Needs to have a decent Camera. Please,
suggest some phones for me. The phone also needs to have decent 5g capability

Thanks for the reply, but I have heard you have to pay to have the bootloader unlocked on the Samsung phones, is that true of tha A52 5G? If anyone else has suggestions of other newer 5g phones that meet these specs, please post. Let's make this a complete list, thanks, everyone. And if you want to list other models with no sd slot, OK, but please specify that in your post.

Galaxy A52 5G has all your post requirements. What you have heard about is carrier lock, for an example, if you bought a Verizon Galaxy Note8, Verizon can choose to not allow modifications.
The problem with carriers is that they demand locked bootloader, not so cool with power users.
You can buy an unlocked model, of course. But if you are bothered, then I can only recommend you Xiaomi devices. They're the most developer friendly phones so far, with great specs, and very affordable prices, and availability in USA.

I am interested in the A52 5G. Looking online it seems they are only available in international versions, and some of them seem to lack some of the 5G bands, or functionality, and they don't properly list the phones specs. I want to avoid buying a one that was built without all functionality. Would you mind recommending where to purchase one, I want one with Max memory, and with the SD slot, that will support as much of the 5G spectrum that at&t offers as possible. Thanks.

Galaxy A52 5G specs. As you can see, device can go up to 256 GB of storage, and 8 GB of RAM, the specs are magnificent, has all what a premium user might need.
The SD Card slot on this device can run up to 2 TB in size. That's very huge, compared to the 512 GB limit on last year's Galaxy A51.
However, I'm sad to deliver you this, Galaxy A52 5G does not have AT&T's 5G bands. Check this site to know more. This does not mean 5G won't work. But it'll be limited to only certain areas. (AT&T are still working on their 5G).
You can use that site to check another phone, if your eyes fell on one, and see which bands it possess that is compatible with USA carriers.
We don't use online markets for shop, I lack the experience. Apologies, I won't be able to help you at that.
