Root Posted July 26, 2022 Report Share Posted July 26, 2022 Any recommendation on feature phone? I think I will need Spotify, whatsapp and hotspot options, which I doubt any feature phone will have else will have to buy individual devices for these purposes.

Just get me whatsapp, gmail and chrome. I am done in that. I am always on phone. I really need a dumb phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikushimi Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 It's sad really. For a while Flipkart were genuine competetors to Amazon. As things stand now, Amazon will have monopoly over the etailer space and that is never going to be good for consumers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VelivolusDas Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) Edit: Heard some horror stories about the Pixel 6 units sold by TECH-RETAIL, so I chickened out. Cancelled it and ordered from the seller deals of you. But that arrives on Wednesday. Oh well... -------- Original Post: Arriving today...

I see many complaints about open box/refurbished Pixel 6/Pro being sold on Amazon. The tensor chip isn't the best (as expected, rebranded Exynos), so do all the testing within exchange period to avoid further hassles. No warranty anyway.

It just fell down a cliff, went from extremely good to extremely bad in months. Btw, Apple users - how do you change the default maps on iPhone ? Specially for WhatsApp or other apps (force them to use GMaps over Apple maps) ? Apple maps is useless for India. SMH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From all the research I've done so far, the ones sold by deals of you have the least issues. So, that's the seller that I went for finally. BTW, for anyone wondering, this is the video that made me change my mind and cancel the order with the previous seller. Check the comments, and he says that even he returned the one sent by TECH-RETAIL and went for deals of you. Edit: For context, the Pixel 4a (5G) that my wife uses was ordered from the seller deals of you, too. I got that for her in September 2021 and there have been literally zero issues so far. So, crossing my fingers and expecting the same from this purchase, too. Edited July 29, 2022 by VelivolusDas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harsh1387 Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Iqoo 9T launched today. Price is quite attractive for Flagship specs. I think it's better than One Plus 10T launching tomorrow considering the better camera set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dante77 Posted August 3, 2022 Report Share Posted August 3, 2022 Samsung always had bloatware. They only sell because of monopoly in Android market. Shitty state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harsh1387 Posted August 3, 2022 Report Share Posted August 3, 2022 As per Dave2D One plus 10T have really crap camera system. Its a shame seeing One plus falling so down so fast with their phones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante77 Posted August 3, 2022 Report Share Posted August 3, 2022 Forget about Camera. They removed Alert Slider!!!!!!! This is not a 0/10 phone. This is a -5/10. Alert slider was the only shame they have left. Pretty sure they are gonna put bloatware in their phones in future too along with lots of ads. Then it will be a perfect crap -10/10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant complete the setup without installing TT. There is no choice. Do they have the T&Cs upfront on the box before you buy a phone ? If Xiaomi is doing it, doesn't make it right automatically, eh ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VelivolusDas Posted August 4, 2022 Report Share Posted August 4, 2022 I mean, how does that benefit them? TikTok pays Samsung for the installs? And what about India, then? Since you know, TikTok is banned here? Scummy move nonetheless. It absolutely doesn't make sense. Even if it's a cheap phone, Samsung shouldn't have to 'recover' costs in this way.
