Oneplus 5 vs Nokia 8 vs LG G6

I can get the lg g6 for 400 euro, the oneplus 5 for 462 euro and the nokia 8 for 492 euro.
Which is better value for money ?

Hello,
LG G6 I didn't have it and tested but I can tell you about OnePlus5, I ordered and used for 2 weeks and I sent back because of poor wifi and mobile signal and also I wasn't sadisfy with picture quality.
Nokia is.... Nokia. I'm happy with my choice. Nokia 8 is great, moving faster as OnePlus5 ( 2GB RAM less is almost unvisible), battery keep the same as OnePlus5, signal on mobile and wifi on Nokia is much better.
Personal I suggest you Nokia 8. I don't know why OnePlus 5 is so promoted because is not better than Lenovo, Xiaomi and other pure China company's.

And in Oneplus 5 there's jelly effect on scrolling websites. The reason why I bought Nokia 8 finally when I saw that on a friend's phone.

I pre-ordered Oneplus 5, used it about a week... Got so sick of the famous jelly effect on screen that I sent it back. Bought Nokia 8 instead, I have been pleased!

For those who already bought it, how much SoT are you getting?
Is there a BIG performance difference between SD820 and SD835?
I'm on LG V20 and planning to move.

Is the 3T still worth picking up right now?

I have an S8 but I also want stock Android so I was wondering if the 3T is worth it and also if it'll have community support for a while

no , i would recommend you to go for mi a1 if you strictly want the stock android xp when you own an s8
or if you have budget you can go for oneplus 5

Will the mi a1 have good developer support?
And also, why do you not think the 3T is a good idea? I can get it for only 100 NZD more

I'd say the 3T is still a pretty solid option right now. But if you can add in a few more bucks, I'd suggest the 5T instead. Phones with18:9 display with dual cameras are hot right now, the 5T has them both and a lot more.
As for your other question, some Xiaomi devices do have a lot of custom support, like the kenzo, it's one of the most popular devices on xda.
But on the other hand, Xiaomi still hasn't released Kernel sources for the A1 so there wont be any custom development until they do.
But if your main focus is on custom development support then go for something with Project Treble. That thing is going to change everything.

I wouldn't hesitate to get another 3T right now.

A1 instead of 3T, seriously??
Had it before the 3T and can't recommend!
Very laggy and no development until Xiaomi releases the source.

Bang for Buck? 3T
Community development for 3 or more years? OnePlus (3T)
Near stock Android with small tidbits of OxygenOS goodies? 3T
But if you have the budget, 5T it is. Strict budget? 3T.

Yeah I don't have the budget for the 5T and in fact it isn't even out in my country yet. The 5 is too much too so I guess the 3T is the best option

because of the aging hw, nowadays hw ages so fast also with android one support its best ,
3t is a good option only if you are looking for the community support

The 3T section was the most active one on XDA for some time. Forum activity has probably surpassed by the OP5 (and soon to be 5T) at this point. But if you can't afford, or don't want the newer iterations; then the 3T is definitely the way to do in terms of community. It will be supported here for a long time to come, for sure.

I think it pretty much depends on the price that you have found for the 3T.
below $400 I would still probably buy it

Try 1k lol. The S8 sells for 1.3k the note for 1.6-7 the iPhone X 1.8K
We get ripped off hard. I'm lucky my parents can afford to get me flagship phones.

Still a good buy

Damn! Go get that 3T now hahaha

The 3T became my backup phone. I got the 5T a few days ago and I wouldn't hesitate to put my SIM card back in my 3T if the former broke down.

So who is getting it ?

Hi all :victory:
Samsung announced today their new beast the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. What do you think about this new device ? Are you considering to buy it ? Upgrade from your current device ? Tell us :good:

i just received an email from samsung that i can preorder today, they said everyone else preorder start tomorrow.
hopefully i get it sooner than everyone.
i preordered Verzion version since i'm with Verizon prepaid.
i trade in my Note8 for 400$. that' a fair price, if you sell it yourself, you have to pay swappa fee, paypal fee, and shipping.
reason i want note9.
1. need something new to play with. haha
2. cpu and graphic is faster than note8
3. 128gb storage compare to 64gb on note8, but do i need it? i only used 30gb on my note8
4. bluetooth spen, hopefully i able to use it for selfie.
5. hopefully we can Quick Charge 4. qualcomm listed QC4.0, charge 15 minutes get 50% battery life !

I'm buying it for sure. Till the official announcement, I wasn't considering it based on strong rumors of still being equipped with QC 2.0 and my personal taste on the not-so-usefulness of the S-Pen. But then, I made my mind to get it ASAP due to,
1. 4000 mAh battery.(little disappointing that it's still QC 2.0 only). I'm not so happy with the S9+'s batterylife.
2. S-Pen is pretty "dope" this time around- it's a remote controller for the camera, it's a pen, it can control streaming services from 30 feet away, can control apps, it's customizable, gets charged under 1 minute using supercapacitors inside....
3. AI integration on camera.
4. Water-carbon cooling system to prevent overheating and AI based performance adjuster.
5. Plenty of of RAM and flash Storage.
....
**Pixel 3 xl was in my mind but then after trustworthy leaks showing its design, I felt "NO". , it should be the Note 9 worth taking.

Was going to preorder it, but the have only the blue one, and purple one available only, wanted the black one. Also you get a free AKG wireless noise canceling headphones.

Qualcomm SD 845 chipset supports QC 4.0 but Samsung capped it at QC 2.0. So, do not hope

I was excited for this phone but after reading it still only comes with Android 8.0 was enough for me to say PASS.

Samsung experience have all features you need,you get even more than what Android P users are getting and will ever get even in Android 12 i think

In italy, we have to rent the 512gb/8gb ram for 45€ per month 24 months long with a first payment of 99€.
Waiting for firsts reviews to check battery.

To me, if I am going to pay upwards of $1000 for a phone then it should be Flagship. To me that means the most up to date hardware and software. At least Android 8.1 would be acceptable but 8.0 just means that put a nice paint job on an old house.

I actually didnt want to get it, but my Note 5 is getting older and battery is not holding a long charge.
Plus Tmo can give me $500 for this old phone. I think I am going to pull the trigger.

Likely ill get it, not thrilled with the color choices...copper is the only one Id consider but i def need to see it in person.

I've found the more memory I have available, the more I'll use so 128 Gb may suit you well. Quick Charge is 2.0 for the Note 9 which is a bit disappointing but not a deal killer. I turned down Samsung's $400 trade in offer and sold my S8+ for a $100 more on a local Craigslist post., no fees or shipping required. Personally I feel the S9 Plus makes more sense unless you really use S Pen. The devices are very similar in hardware besides the bigger battery on Note 9, display size is very close but the big difference is price. New Note 9 - $1,000, New S9 Plus (128 Gb) - $664 for the device on ebay.

Just pre-ordered unlocked 128 gb from Samsung. Bought a lg g6 on swappa for $160 to get the $300 trade in. I'm ready!

I pre ordered mine. Blue with 8 gigs and the 512 memory. I bought an S7 active on eBay for a $100 and will trade it in for $300. Just sold note 8 for over $500. Bought Whitestone Dome glass and S View case. Hurry up August 24th!!

I'm doing something similar! Buying the S7 for $130(ish) and trading in for $500 through T-mobile! Where did you snag one for only $100?? I can't seem to beat $130.
I'm getting the $999 Note9 (Blue). Can't wait! I adore my Note 8 and the only thing that I wish was better was the battery life, so this phone should be PERFECT!

Nice pre-order deal here in Australia, on samsung’s site: 512GB model for the price of the 128 GB model, A$1499.
And samsung will give me a very good trade in of A$785 for my 10 months old pixel 2 XL. That’s about what I could get on ebay, but without the hassle.
Ordered!

Bought one with "shadows” . There are even cheaper ones with the green line running down the screen.
My seller is out of NY

Bought 128gb Blue, ugh I wanted black. Got the unlocked version 400 dollars off thanks to an S8 sitting in a drawer. Wife gets to dump her LG V20 and get my Note 8 and I get the 9 for 640 bucks with tax. Win win.

Got mine ordered last night!

Note 9 price |2019

hello ,
Just wanted to check what price our dear users have bought Note 9 for in 2019 .
I purchased in June 10th 2019 for USD449 - for Exynos version , Dual Sim - Note 9 black with 6gb RAM , 128 GB rom.
I think this prices is justified as its similar to Old One Plus 6T in my region .
what about you guys ?
i was previously using Note 5 - single sim , Exynos - 64 GB rom , 4GB ram .

That is a steal!

USD646 - for Exynos version , Dual Sim - Note 9 blue with 8gb RAM , 512gb rom.

There's a midnight black exynos that's a bit above $500 that I'm keeping an eye on. I'm waiting until next week before I may pull the trigger on it. Just to have a fresh Note 9 to extend my Note 9 experience seeing the design direction Samsung are moving towards. Note 9 for me for the next few years, more than likely.

In europe they are still more expensive. Bought my black 128 6gb last week for €549

You will not regret it. Once u get the 90Hz display it will be hard to go back to 60Hz.

i have the og pixel xl, so i'm in a similar situation as you. my pixel has been more sluggish and the battery has been draining faster. it's almost 3 years old. i only upgrade when i need to and it's about time, so i took advantage of the deal. these are my thoughts and conclusions i came to after my research. i am in no way an expert on the oneplus 7 pro. i don't even have the phone yet! :laugh:
i've admired oneplus ever since they came on the scene and have recommended their phones before. i probably would have gotten one earlier if verizon supported them. what sold me on the oneplus 7 pro vs. the google pixel 4 xl is what you get for the price. even with google's $200 deal, the pixel 4 xl with 64gb of storage and 6gb of ram is $699. at $549, the 7 pro gets you 256gb of storage and 8gb of ram. the 7 pro also has a bigger battery(4000mah vs 3700mah). both phones have the same cpu and gpu(snapdragon 855 and adreno 640).
both phones have 90hz displays, but the pixel 4 xl has had issues with 90hz support since launch. the display will run at 90hz at certain brightness settings. it looks like google improved things with their november update but i think they're going to be tweaking it for a while. on the other hand, it looks like oneplus did a better job supporting 90hz and there are hacks/mods to enable 90hz all the time.
bootloader unlock and rooting are important to me too. that's why we use android and get phones like these right? that's easily done on either phone. well, the google version of the pixel, not the verizon one.
the pixel has better cameras, but those aren't important to me. i hardly take pictures and i know my nephew is going to get a kick out of the 7 pro's pop up selfie cam.
i just ordered the 7 pro, so i have zero experience with the phone. this was my thought process to choose the 7 pro vs the pixel. i hope it helps.

I did it and don't regret it! Love this phone and my xl2. But the 4xl simply isn't worth it.

Buying a 2nd one for this price ??

I ordered one on black friday to upgrade from my Oneplus 1. It looks like it will be another phone that can last me at least 5 years.

I just bought one because i lost my first one. This deal couldn't have come at a better time.

They actually have the exact same offer again.
US and Germany:
OnePlus 7 Pro 8 GB/256 GB - 150$/140€ off
Non US Store:
OnePlus 7 Pro 8 GB/128 GB - 110€ off
OnePlus 7 Pro 12 GB/256 GB - 100€ off
PS: On checkout enter op7pro as a voucher code. This one is then valid for a week and if you use it the amount will be deducted.

I ordered one on Black Friday as well. Have you already received your phone? My order indicates shipping date of 12/13 with 12/18 as being the delivery date. Just curious if you got something similar.
