I agree about Chinese manufacturers like Huawei, Oppo, One+ and Xiaomi. They've got phones with the same specs as Samsung and Apple for a fraction of the price. The camera on the P9 is supposed to be as good as either of the other flagships and my Mi5's camera (~$300) is also rated just as good except in really low light conditions.

I've always been rather anti-apple, but that's just me.

yes so why would you be worried about voiding a non existing warranty?

in warranty free battery (never had to claim) out of warranty you cant void it by fitting it yourself as it dorsnt exist

oh so its the cost now not a warranty issue? OK

are only reading half the posts?

they cost $10 if you diy or take it to a shop

and anyway why are you assuming that you will need to replace it?

i dont own an iphone buy the way but have in the past and never needed to replace a battery in 8 years

And now I just updated to 6.0.1 and it seems that there is a glitch:

VPNs don't work! ! That means I haven't been able to use Skype or Facebook Messenger for calls. That's fucking annoying. (Google it, it's not just me.)

There seems to be work-arounds for it by disabling battery saver, but still doesn't work.

WTF.

Had the chance last night to check out the latest Android phones, and even the LG V20 didn't seem to be all that, and nobody has the Google Pixel.

Everyone is out of stock of the iPhone 7 Plus 256GB, and when they do get it in stock it will be a whopping $1000!

I might have to call Kevin Weng and see if he can hook me up after all.

Fuck my life.

just get an iPhone 5, can pick them up cheap enough and it has everything you need
whats the point in buying a top of the range phone for stupid amount of money when 6 months down the line there will be a newer version
that goes for any decent phone, i have no loyalties
