March 11, 20178 yr My samsung finally died on me, or rather the battery connector did, I have to spend 5 mins wiggling the charging cable to get it to work. I kinda want to try a windows phone, but just a cheap one since the hardware is kinda bad value compared to something like a Motorolla Android. I'm done with expensive phones. I tend to drop those and shatter the screen a day after I get them. Bluetooth and mobile wifi hotspot functionality and the ability to get an ad blocker to actually work, including youtube. I guess most things could meet those criterea these days. Ohh and battery life. lots of that. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
March 11, 20178 yr I just bought my mother a Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime. It's a sub 200$ phone with great specs and a huge battery. The only bad thing about it is a mediocre camera (compared to flagship phones). "because they filled mommy with enough mythic power to become a demi-god" - KP
March 11, 20178 yr Well for the battery life, Nokia just relaunched the 3310. 2G only though, so usage is limited to places where the 2G networks haven't been decommissioned yet. In all seriousness though, if you want a Windows phone it's really just a simple matter of looking up the Lumia range and going with the one with the highest model number that still fits your budget. Quick look on Amazon.de shows the top three sellers as the 650 at ~125EUR, the 55 at ~90EUR and the 950 XL at ~300EUR. Notebookcheck has reviews for the 550 and the 950 XL.

March 17, 20178 yr Author Got one, a lumina xl 640 with a slightly larger screen because I like to read on my phone, and then had it stolen before It was even out of the package. Watch your stuff around train stations. Ordered the exact same model again. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

March 28, 20178 yr What specifically don't you like about it? I'm not a phone person, but still kinda curious as to why you think it's no good. Quote Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.
March 28, 20178 yr Author Well for starters it has a search button that can only be used to launch Bing. Why would I want that. Proper browsers, Firefox, Chrome etc are not available. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
March 29, 20178 yr Author Aaaand it just failed to come back from power saving mode, had to reboot. Seriously, never get one. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
April 19, 20178 yr Although my phone is only 10 months old (young?) and I'm very happy with it I'm already thinking about upgrading. Why? CHECK THIS OUT!!! *rock music blaring* They're releasing the Xiaomi Mi 6 on April 28!! Snapdragon 835, 6GB RAM, 128GB storage, NFC, IR-blaster, dual camera (f1.8 wide angle and f2.6 2x optical zoom, 12 Mpixel), splash-proof, dual sim, 3350 mAh battery, Bluetooth 5.0, USB-C 3.1 etc. I really want a better camera. Everything else is great on my Mi 5 Pro, except the camera. It's good in daylight but becomes useless in low light situations.

April 19, 20178 yr Personally I'm waiting for Mi Mix 2. Weather I will buy when it comes out, that's another story. edit: Oh and it's worth noting that they dumped the headphone jack for Mi 6 Edited April 19, 20178 yr by Sarex "because they filled mommy with enough mythic power to become a demi-god" - KP
April 23, 20178 yr Author Ended up ordering a Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4 and I probably overpaid, but I can have it in hand in a couple of days. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
June 21, 20178 yr My work phone is a Windows phone my Nokia. It's a newer model and one of the more expensive ones so naturally I was excited to have it... Unfortunately, turned out to be a nightmare. It's very limiting, even moreso than the iPhones. I hate it... lol Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother? What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest. Begone! Lest I draw my nail...
