US price for the DTEK60 is finally revealed, it's $499.
Specs look pretty nice and screen resolution and size is the sweet spot for me. But I've never used a Blackberry before, is this something that you guys would recommend over the Axon 7 or Oneplus 3? Of course I'll wait for reviews but I just wanted to hear some quick thoughts if any about this phone.

so no one knows why the note 7 is blowing up lol.
That... is not good. Hope the s8 won't somehow inherit its woes.
there really hasn't be any reason to get a blackberry in years, probably since Bold?
spec wise I'm not seeing anything that makes it worth $100 more than the chinese stuff, unless you want better... security?
So AA put up there review for the Nubia Z11, and while I don't really care about the phone much, I really do like that side bezeless screen.
Basically samsung edge stuff with even less curve than the note 7. Hope more phones go this way.

Maybe a few just got messed up during manufacturing/delivery?
not sure. I've got a micro sim in my LG G4
edit: enjoying the Axon 7 so far. only have used it for media capabilities since i need the new sim card. only thing i don't like is the non-lit buttons.
maybe it's because i'm not used to it? is there a chance that'll get addressed in an update or is it even possible to add something like that? it's my only gripe as of now

I didn't know about that phone, it's gorgeous in my opinion and the specs aren't bad either. If the pricings right in the US I might pick one up as a weekend phone.
dont think anyone's cracked how to get on-screen buttons yet lol. It takes a day or 2 to get used to, and I still hit the wrong thing at night occasionally, but them being close together makes it easier to 1 hand.

Got Google Assistant and Pixel launcher installed on the 6P. Google assistant is slick. Camera app works now too with all benefits of Pixel such as faster camera shots.
i'm sure i'll get used to it. really nice phone, though. excited to fully use it tomorrow after a quick stop to AT&T

Google assistant is much better than Google Now. You would think they would want this on every device possible.
Where did you get the camera app?

It's Google's own fault. They refuse to release a phone of their own with microSD, waterproofing, high resolution screen, camera with OIS, a unique design which doesn't look exactly like an iPhone, a stylus, etc.
Most of their decisions are based purely on ideology, they don't like microSD because reasons so fuck the people who want it. That's fine, no one will buy a Google phone then. Great work there, how's the ideology going for you now that you don't have Samsung to carry you?
Oh shit, the upgraded video stabilization also works :O
Tested it by walking slowly in my house and it works. Need to try it outdoor.
Whoa! Thanks

Funny how the camera app makes the 6P better....is it one of the apps thats gonna make it across?
Also whats up with all these chinese phones (except the OP3) having a round circle home button?

has calmed down a bit.
I'm loving it so far... Except that for some reason the OneNote app crashes on boot and won't load. I tried uninstalling and then installing it again and I haven't been able to get it working. Very weird problem to have. Can you guys try to install that app and see if it works for you? That's a very important app for me.
I wish zte or OnePlus go for better cameras next year. Other features are already there. I want to find a phone that improves my note 4 in all departments. Not just soc
Apparently, there's a Trojan within that apk. It'll be wise to delete the app until we get it from a secure and trusted source.

My dog was murdered by a 3.5mm audio port and I will not rest until the standard is dead
Welp, you're all infected. The apk is bugged. Better get a Pixel.
lol. A clean apk will probably be out before tonight.

Shocking News: all the major features of the Pixel are software-related.

This has absolutely nothing to do with it. In the United States people don't even know or care that there are options besides a galaxy or iPhone. It's due to their laziness to ever explore outside of what's shoved down their throats in commercials or carrier stores. Advertisement works far better than you are realizing.
There are so many galaxy users that actually don't even know why they have a galaxy it's not even funny. Those same people will bounce to iPhones and it's certainly not BC of SD cards or waterproofing.

The Pixel C is hands down the best Android tablet ever released. I'm guessing it's too large or expensive for you.
Nothing has come close in performance or battery life.

with 1440p display, hope the gpu is decent this time.
These were the leaked prices
I assume the curved will add a bit more?
It's a Mali gpu. It's shit (specially since Huawei doesn't add GPU cores like Samsung does, which leverages the shittyness of MALI gpus.)

if only the Pixel looked like this - would have been perfect

post you god damn source fuck
anyway make bottom bezel match top, add ffspeakers, a smaller screen option like 5-5.2"and this phone is perfect
Not sure if this is the thread for it, but looks like you all will have the knowledge to provide an answer.
I'm looking for a new phone to replace my old one, which is starting to reboot by itself for no apparent reason again, after having to restore it 2 times since I got it 10 months ago. I must say that the phone costed me like 60 with the newspaper (I know, lol). It's a miSmart Empire (which I'm assuming nobody in here has heard about it before)
Anyway, I'm looking to upgrade to a better phone. I was thinking of something in the 200-300 range. I'm quite careful with technology in general, so I would be open to spending more if that would mean that I get a good phone.
Anyway, here are the things that it should have:
Two SIM slots <--- This is essential
5" screen maximum
Decent-ish camera?
Some durability (I know the market is designed so that everyone has regular upgrades, but I don't see myself buying a new phone every year, I would get a 80-100 if that's the case)
And that's pretty much it. I do some gaming on the phone, but it's really basic stuff. Decent battery life is a plus, although I don't tend to have problems with it.
I know most of you here are more into the high end phones, but maybe you have tried/heard of some medium range quality phones. It could also be an old phone, if it's still relatively easy to find. And I think this is pretty much it.

According to f-droid it does this:
I didn't take a look but I doubt it had more malware in it.

So relatively on the tamer side as far as things go. That's good to know
