Essential Official Android Thread

ShowBox is much better now, they have changed the UI, looks same as MovieBox on iOS.

Has 2 servers now and the speeds are really fast, just DL an TV ep in about 5 mins.

Torrents still my main thing but good that we have another fast option.

i saw that as well and im tempted..

what ive read online, its better to wait cause international doesn't carry the 1700 signal(fastest LTE signal)

Thanks for the info

I think I'm gonna wait for that 4gb ram 64gb storage to be released in the US too since my nexus 5 has been good to me


The above phone is actually a better option than the previous phone I posted

It has a larger screen and better battery and also has dual sim card for $60 more

Do not post anything else from that bullshyt website in here.

Xperia Z4 specs

5.1"
1920 x 1080 FHD
Snapdragon 810
3GB RAM
20MP back, 5MP front

G4 specs

5.5"
2560 x 1440 QHD
Snapdragon 808
3GB RAM
16MP back, 8MP front

No SD card slot on Z4, metal frame only shows SIM. If you're still holding out hope for future SD card support you might as well stock up on Note 4s, M9s, and possibly G4s to last you until you die, this year is it for SD cards. The only reason the M8 and G3 had them is because of Samsung, the M7 and G2 didn't. But then again they keep saying the S6 active is going to have SD but I don't see it. We'll see tho.

LG dumped the 810 because of overheating/performance

And that 8MP front facing camera is pretty cool when you remember just 3 years ago they where on the backs of phones and still is on the iPhone in 2015. Crazy how fast technology grows.

Samsung's newest Android phones are the best they've ever made. And probably the best Android phones out today, period.

theoretically, there's nothing stopping me from buying that new Samsung Galaxy with my AT&T upgrade in a couple weeks and then just putting it on eBay for a quick come up right?

Android devices dont hold value like that, so I wouldn't do it unless you just want to play with it and make a little profit (assuming you get it on 2yr price and not ATT Next)

Brehs do 3rd-party/generic/Non-OEM Note S-Pen/Stylus work good?

well I'm cool with my OPO I purchased and don't see myself springing for any of these new phones any time soon so I figured why not give it a try. I see some S6 (proof of preorder) going for $700+ on eBay so idk.....

Wont hurt but these will be fairly easy to get in store besides maybe the 128gb.

android doesnt have its own video player? I put a movie on my tablet and couldnt find that shyt anywhere. Downloaded the vlc app, and there it was

What's going on with the showbox app? I didn't do the update but if I try to watch a movie that has been added recently it says I have to download the mx player app. TV shows still work but movies do not

 

[skeetsinternal]

I won't get the S6. My S5 is rugged and waterproof.

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Is there any way to get Spotify with no ads, unlimited skips, no shuffle, etc for free? A modded apk or something?

 

[Apollo Creed]

will the gold s6 be hard to come by in store?
