Soldato
I woke yesterday morning to a smashed screen, I must have put my elbow on it during the night or something. There's a massive round black spot, ghosting, and mirroring of the image with rainbow colours all over it. The touchscreen still works and I can pull any files off I need but I think it's dead .
I'm looking for something which matches these requirements:
I've spent quite a bit of a time looking and I keep getting deeper down the rabbit hole of choice. I'm more than happy buying second hand, I'd rather get more for my money than buying a new one.
I've come across a whole load of options;
Any ideas before I drive myself mad? I'm currently thinking the S7 Edge or OnePlus is probably the one to go for, leaning towards the OnePlus but I'm not sure! Design wise the OnePlus looks so much nicer than Samsung though.
Other than eBay where else should I be looking? The for sale section on here doesn't have many of these coming up, and eBay works out quite a lot more expensive.
Cheers
I'm looking for something which matches these requirements:
- Rootable (and can be hidden so Android Pay can still be used) - I'm a developer and SSH access is handy
- Can run custom ROMs - so I can keep current with the latest Android OS, lineageOS or something popular preferably
- Decent camera
- Decent bright screen
- SD card would be great but not a deal breaker
- Somewhere around a 5.2" - 6" screen
I've spent quite a bit of a time looking and I keep getting deeper down the rabbit hole of choice. I'm more than happy buying second hand, I'd rather get more for my money than buying a new one.
I've come across a whole load of options;
- S7 - screen ever so slightly too small and I'm not a massive fan of Samsung phone designs
- S7 Edge - I don't really see the point of the edge, it always seems to just reflect light?
- LG G5 - bootloop issues. A shame as I really like the LG phones
- Huawei P9
- Honor 9 - poor reputation for updates? (https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/purchase-honor-9-lite-or-any-others-to-consider.18811890/)
- Oneplus 3 - no SD
- Oneplus 3T - no SD
- HTC 10 - poor cloudy/washy camera from what I've seen
