There isn't really much information about this.
One site is stating: Wi-Fi 802.11 ac
Wich should mean WiFi 5

Yeah I saw that a couple days ago. I'm not feeling the need to upgrade from pixel 3 without that. 5G is still spotty so that's not going to do it for me.

Wifi 5 is now confirmed
Gesendet von meinem CMR-AL09 mit Tapatalk

Yeah, it's WiFi 5. Personality I'm just fine with that. The only advantage I see of WiFi 6 is better handling of high congestion areas which isn't a situation I find myself in that often.

I think wifi 6 isn't really relevant for most users in the next 1-2 years. Wifi 6 requires new hardware. So I guess this is ok... However it shows that the phone is pointing at mid class.

Do you know where wifi 6 is already available? And if only at home, do you need more transfer speed than ac? I can't think about a single use case for me as one who is using a nas for storage. So I'd rather save money on this

Don't get me wrong, your comment is absolutely valid, but if every vendor thinks like this we get new technology only when the old is dying and not when it's available.

WiFi 6 is one of the few things I think lacking in this device (assuming it behaves as expected). Its missing from all of the new products and I think they've missed a trick. More importantly, 5g without w6 breaks any kind of narrative about being up to date and at any forefront.

Is this phone very unpopular or?

Hi guys,
Ive noticed that there isn't really much activity on these forums.
Only a handfull of roms, nothing like the Desire ( the phone i had before this one).
So my question basicly is this phone unpopular or just not sold alot or something?
the phone is expensive and then maybe people would think 2 times before you flash it, now as you can see there have been some steps forward! ics rom etc..! now that was released on one x I'll show you that the phone will be popular because of price and audio and thank you and terrific at the price you will buy will decrease in many ... the desire hd 4 months after launch did not have all the Rom, the same goes for the hd2! (which continues to grow thanks to the ridiculously low price and the amount of ROM)
The phone is popular, but Lot of people bought For that price an Apple because The name

I didnt see a dual core,for the same price, which is faster than the sxl.. 1.5 dual or single.. the different is to small.. think the phone is not unpopular, but lot of guys bought last year an sgs2, and the apple 4, so most of them have an smartphone.. so i think..
It's unpopular because of mediocre specs. Particularly the single core, older gpu and lower display ppi. But I rate the actual user experience better or equal to the highly regarded sgs2. In practice the single core processor is pretty speedy and it shows in benchmarks where it outperforms the excellent sgs2 in vellamo and sunspider. The screen resolution is fine for my use and has better view angles and contrast than the XE. Most people condemned the phone before actually using it.
I bought the phone purely for the size of the screen... just perfect for me...

Same here. Loving the bigger screen, and it looks fantastic. Everyone i know who has seen it thinks it's fantastic. Even the local iPhone owners are jealous and want it.
but then again, i did used to have the Athena....

[Q] LG Optimus 2x vs Xperia U

Would you recommend buying LG Optimus 2x or wait for Xperia U ??
Well, if you can get good price for O2X you should buy it, the only thing i don`t like about O2X is battery life, but i`m used to it by now.
if you're a gamer go for o2x the only thing i don't like on this phone is the lack of support of lg and tegra 2
Yes, if you are a gamer buy the o2x.
For better performance and longer battery life use a custom rom!
The LG stock rom is not good...
i dont like that xperia u has no sd card slot and only 4gb available. thats BULLSH*T. sadly sony doesnt see it the same way.
Unless you have a perfectly fast and reliable data connection 24x7 hooked up with your phone, I'd recommend the O2X. Regardless if you're into gaming or not.
With only 4GB of memory and no expansion, you'll pretty much use all that memory for installing apps. Which means that you'll pretty much have no space for your songs or videos.
O2X all the way.
So Sometime you'll see me in this forum..
I'm currently and owner of an x10 mini and for the price I paid it's a Beast with all the Mods I've done
When you buy a Sony phone, the better choice is the xperia sola.
This have 8gb memory and a sd card slot.

[Q] Is no-one else interested in Xperia Ultra?

I see a lot of interest in the Z1 as the natural upgrade from the XZ but I see no other comments about the Ultra. Is there something I am missing (besides its sub par battery life)
After University finishes in 1 month I wont have a need for my failing Nexus 7, and I read alot of E-books and so I thought the best solution would be to upgrade my XZ to the Ultra. I don't need a tablet but I do like reading e-books on a comfortable screen size. If worse comes to worse I'll just read on my XZ but I am looking to upgrade.
Any potential hazards I'm missing?
I think it's because most people don't like the idea of a 6.4" screen.
I wanted the Z Ultra, but apparently the camera is horrid, and I think it is made from cheaper materials than the Z1.
It's not that it's a bad phone. It's that you can get better.
Sent from The Magical Xperia Z, running TuRdZzROM v2.2.0
Oh right. I never use cameras so even a **** one will do the job. And define cheaper materials ? Like the XZ is pretty solid. Does the XU use plastic.
Does the Z1 have a bigger screen?

Too big. Looks silly when you call somebody.

Size yes. As for looking silly.... That's reserved for golden iphones

I own a galaxy note 2 as well (and love it), but for me that is the maximum size I could deal with..
The z ultra is just too much phone for me. Some people will love it no doubt, but it isn't for me.

Farewell Nexus

@evleaks recently revealed that the Google Nexus program will be canned, with no further Nexus devices to be announced. In its place, Google will be launching the Android Silver range of devices, which is expected in February 2015.
Further details have now been provided by evleaks regarding the next Nexus phone. Previously expected to be the tentatively named Nexus 6, the successor to the Nexus 5 is said to be manufactured by LG once again.
The only other details known about this device as of now is that it will run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 SoC (one of the first devices with this chipset) and will be available on Sprint in the US.
Google I/O is set to take place a month from now. We'll have to wait and see if Google has any hardware related announcements to make during the event. What are your views?

R.I.P Nexus
Tell you the truth I only use the nexus line for the latest OS! Now with the Google editions, instead of paying for a midrange phone on contract. Was thinking of going for something like a note 3 and just installing the google edition ROM! Think the nexus line has been great for Google. But unless your buying your handset! Your kinda losing out if your next handset is by contract. Be sad to see Nexus go! But I trust Google to keep pushing Android forward.

Yeah but you can also buy the one plus one since its getting cyanogenmod updates for another 2 years i think and someone will make aosp ROM for it etc. But the screensize 5,5 inch is really top big.. But only 269 euro is really cheap you van buy like 2 or 3 phones instead of an Galaxy s5 or iPhone 5s.
Cant wait till 4.4.3 comes out i hope that they fixed the wifi issues then instead that we must fix it ourselves.
But there is always hope. If we still get Android 5 then we can make it further not fully working but yeah real life. Are you guys also noticing that the phones are almost more powerfull the an desktop if you watch to specs even if it cant have an big gpu like octacore phones.. For people who only browse Twitter or facebook and playing simple games. Do you guys also think then what you could do with such an powerfull device?

Yes i was also finding it an awesome thing sadly Ubuntu touch isnt still really good it still need to evolve like pokemons lol. But its an pretty futurastic option but i will keep it on Android since there are more apps and its more stable then Ubuntu touch on top of cyanogenmod

They are mistaken...Nexus may be going away, but I think Silver is replacing GPE and Gold will be announced to replace Nexus.

It's still up in the air. I'd assume we will have to wait until Google i/o in June to find out the whole story.

Who sent back the 3 within 15 days, to get the 3t?

never mind
I have done it
I did not.. Cause of better development with op3

We dont know yet. We have to wait and see.
I think the OP3T will gain the same dev support as the 3T
Yeah maybe you are right
For me I came to the conclusion that there will of course be some devs, but not as many and not as good since most devs from op3 said they won't change.
Second in my opinion some devs won't change cause in 6 month will launch the OP4 so they probably won't make roms for 6th months.
But that's only my opinion and why did not send it back, but I hope I am wrong and everyone will gain good development.
Gesendet von meinem XT1562 mit Tapatalk
I think the development won't be the same... For example I saw that someone said that @flar2 isn't going to develop anything for the OnePlus 3T... :/
I did. I bought the OnePlus 3 after being a little disappointed by the Pixel announcement. I was already feeling eh about buying a six month old phone and when I heard about the 3t I decided to return the 3.

I hope so
Ok, I removed my original post, and placed it on oneplus.net...
but since there is respons here as well, this was my message:
Ok, I made up my mind.
Although I love the 3 (coming from opo) and thought I could live without the extra battery, improved front cam and 821, I decided to return the 3. Like the darker colour of the 3t, and hated the idea that my new phone was second best. A little more battery is nice too (but when you hesitate: one day usage is easy on the 3, and dash charging is very, very fast and easy).
I have my rma-papers already, and will return my 3 in a few days.
After that it's waiting for my money, and hopefully I'll be able to order the 3t without again a 4 weeks delivery time
------------------------------
udate: today I sent back my op3... he will be missed!
let's hope all goes well and there will be enough stock 64gb's
I think the idea of not getting 3T because it will have worse dev support is a bit ridiculous. It is not like we need a few dozen or hundred of ROMs for the 3T, but just a few good one is enough. And it's not like if the current 1+3 dev phone is broke that person gonna get a 1+3 and not 3T maybe even newer, who knew? I'm not a dev, but personally speaking I was in search for a new phone for a while, currently using Note 4 w/ 128GB sd card and I find that 32GB is way too small for most usage now a day. Even 64GB is barely enough. Hence I ditch the idea of getting the 1+3, some devs will eventually get to the point where the current storage on the phone isn't enough.
I'm waiting for more reviews of 3T battery to decide to change mi "old" OP3 for it....
I don't want to wait for a long time to get it if I buy OP3T, so
tomorrow I'll look for European stock,and..... Who knows what will I do.....??
