/fa/ - Fashion

Blackberry is the quintessential /fa/ telephone, anyone who says otherwise is lying to themself.

Sidekick phone the old one.

>>7467868
Damn, I remember the sidekick. Neet looking phone.
I preferred my HTC Touchpro 2's keyboard though. I Loved that keyboard to death, nothing has ever felt better in my hands.

>>7467873
You have obviously never touched the Blackberry Q10 keyboard, a superior feel.

Cheap plastic is not fa.

Get an iPhone.

>>7467894
Q10 has my favorite portrait keyboard, but the TP2 had my favorite landscape keyboard. I think it was a 5 or 6 row keyboard, and there was plenty of room on it which is why I liked it.

>>7467902
I hate apple as a company. Not in a million years.
ipod classic is the only apple product I will ever do business with now, and even then that's a stretch because I don't use itunes either. Shitty interface, shitty design, shit.

>>7467902
>cheap soda can
>fa

>>7467902

>not waiting for the diamond-like carbon Samsung GS5

>owning an iPHONE like all the other apple kiddies

>any year ever

Your casualness knows no fucking bounds.,

OP here, sticking with the black I ordered. Just found out the white has glossy sides which sealed the deal.

>>7467939
I personally hate Samsung's build quality.
HTC is ALWAYS the most /fa/ phone brand.
>Quality materials
>slim designs
>Can actually take damage like a champ
>Great functionality

>>7467964
HTC is my favourite for build and materials, but my love affair with HTC sense is over.

It`s pretty but it`s a bloated too. What`s the point in having a fast phone if it`s skinned with an inefficient resource hog?

If I ever get another HTC phone, it'll be flashed with CM or some other optimized rom. No regrets.

White nexus 5 is basically saying "I'm too poor for an iphone"

Get black if you have dignity. If you want an iphone, get an iphone.

>fucking samsung vs apple shitflinging

just get a Lumia

>>7467985
Yeah, I feel the same way. I used to use MIUI, but it went to shit and stock android has become just so good. Nice, quick, and easy to use. Basically everything I could ever ask for from a phone.
To be fair though, HTC sense was necessary back when it first came out. Added all the necessary features to push android to where it is now.

>>7467853
protip apple and samsung are the same

both have samsung screens
both have qualcom OR samsung supplied arm processors

phones in general are of lackluster quality and are not built to last

conspicuous, disposable consumption that you rent/subsidize from telecommunications companies is not /fa/

neither is using a popular piece of hardware, with a software full of security risks tracking where you are every second of the day

>>7468017
Good thing that's not an apple or samsung.
Also, my Nexus one lasted me for about three years and only gave out because the charging port finally went out. Thing was dropped on the ground more times than I can remember.
>implying most software isn't full of security risks
The only reason I am getting an N5 as opposed to an HTC One (other than price) is the community behind it. The ability to keep my phone alive for an extra few years is an extremely valuable thing to me and I enjoy having a device that companies can't tell me "no you can't do that"

>>7467997
I'm from Finland and Lumias are shittiest smartphonese ever made. Even if I got one for free I'd be sticking to my $50 chinese android 4.3 keitai.
the name is retarded too, it means "many snows" in finnish

HTC One

>>7468068
sure thing, Apple/Samung employee

>>7467997
>muh squares
no thanks

LG G2.

Seriously, go read about it, watch some reviews and realize it's the best phone at the moment, period.

>>7469056

After you install an AOSP ROM on it. LG's UI is shit tier in terms of looks.

>>7469077
LG G2 with CM 10.2, it's pretty cool.

>>7469088

I installed PA 4.4.2
It's nice and smooth. Battery life is killer.

>>7469103
I'm pretty new at aosp, is PA good or better than CM?

>>7469119

It has more features than CM, but most of them have not been added to the G2 ROM yet. It runs on Kit Kat, and the dev is constantly updating it.

>>7467922
>Shitty interface, shitty design, shit.
If there's one thing Apple does well it is it brings high end design to consumers. They have been setting the trend for years and if you don't agree you're either delusional or ignorant.

>>7468017
How about getting hardware which is offered at below cost in order to draw users into OS brand loyalty?

NEXUS 4 LYFE!!11!11

>>7469192
If by high end design you mean an uninspired rip off of 70's braun products by deiter rams.

You ignorant shit.

>>7469192
Apple is shit, nothing but a shiny overpriced crap bought by retards willing to waste double just because of the logo.

it's a fucking phone

you faggots will argue over anything

>>7469311
>ignorant
lol ok you think many successful design objects can be created ignoring any previous works of design is possible and you call me ignorant.
Stop kidding yourself, you simply dislike apple because it makes you feel good to go against the status quo even though the status quo in this case is the better product.

>>7469353
>atus quo in this case is the better product.
is this a ruse

>>7469361
>le android 4 life my phone has a cute little green robot on it xD

>>7469329
>shiny overpriced crap
>not /fa/

actually i think thats the definiton of /fa/

>>7467853
The iPhone clearly looks nicer than any other smart phone on the market. The phones in your picture look like burners.

>>7467997
>820
step up senpai

>>7469353
>lol ok you think many successful design objects can be created ignoring any previous works of design is possible and you call me ignorant.

Rams did it.

>>7469670
Every fucking designer does a systematic review in to past/existing designs and become influenced by them. They don't magically come up with designs off the top of their head believe it or not.

>>7469738
Ives did it.

>>7469746
China did it.

>>7468068
A phone is a phone man. I have a lumia and it does what I want it to do. I've used samsungs and apples but my lumia 800 is my fave. Also Finnfag.

>>7467997
lmao that interface is fucking autismal

Even the soft keys look disgusting

If I got that thing for free I'd cover it in steak sauce and throw it into my neighbor's yard where his five rottweilers live.

>>7469553
>burners

What? Like a burner on a cooking range?

>>7469933
a prepaid/disposable phone

>>7469933
phones you use quickly and "burn" or throw away. drug phones.

nexus 5 user here, i can confirm my phone is sexy as fuck. tiny iphone screens make me laugh.

>>7469951
>google nexus 5
Jesus that looks uncomfortable to use

Also
>anon why are you holding a tablet up to your ear?

>>7470018
forgot image

>he doesn't have a dumbphone!

>>7469937
hi ph

>>7468068
Not sure what the hell you're talking about anon. My old 800 was thrown around, dropped, and in an autistic fit of rage thrown into a wall. It ended up denting my walls and bedframe, and only gave out after one of the metal volume buttons got dented in. Although they do have battery and heat issues.

>>7467853
A razor flip phone is as /fa/ as you can get

>>7469919
you do realize you can customize that, right?

>>7469648
i don't need an extra camera dawg

I've said it in every phone thread and I'll say it again. Lumia 800=best looking smart phone ever made. I know it's outdated as heck, doesn't even matter, the design is top notch. The iPhone 4 and some of the other lumias are the only things that come close.

i have a galaxy s3

i like it alot and i made it look pretty inside

/blog post

/thread

>>7470568
>galaxy s3
Man I was disappointed when that came out. I was hyped by all the fake renders and leaks online and then, bam! samsung shits out a shiny pebble. It is a good phone on the inside though.

>>7470552
concur.
everything windows phone is extremely aesthetic.

>>7471912
except for windows phone OS itself lmao

people who are constantly on their smartphones are the worst type of people

>>7470018
its actually easy to use, reach the whole phone with my thumb

phablets are the future, i look forward to the day when we look back on the iphone like the moto razr today

the most effay phone is the iphone 4s/5
idk how hard u want to try and convince urself that ur plastic /g/ approved bloatware is better

white is for girls only rlly
it always looks wierd when a du has a white iphone

black always looks better anyway

>>7471984
I agree completely.
iPhone 4/5 are well built, look great and work well. What more could you ask for?
Currently using the 5c. Never have I been complimented on a phone this much.

>>7471931
>being unquestionably retarded to the maximum extreme
>barely a week until 2014

>>7472030
im not hating, but... really? people compliment an iphone? like people really say "nice phone" to your iphone???

>>7472045
bitches always compliment my macbook.

>>7472030
>look great
maybe the hardware, iOS7 tho...

Out of the way plebs, master race mobile coming through

>>7472079
Softbank has always had some neato phones.
Pity they don't work anywhere outside Japan though.

>>7472045
Had a 4s before this and even got compliments on that, small town full of poor people who are impressed by anything remotely out of their means.
I'm talking to poor that I get compliments on wearing Lacoste and RL polo.
This phone on the other hand impresses all kind of people, just the color of it alone is enough to make people stop and compliment it.

>>7472055
I'm not going to defend IOS 7 but that 3D everything is moving behind the icons thing is kinda nifty.

>>7472100
>kinda gimmicky
fix'd

I like what they were trying to accomplish with the layers thing, but it was horribly executed.

Thinking about getting a Nexus 5 soon, do I go panda mode or pure black? any owners here with opinions?

I'll go with the iPhone because it takes really nice pictures of my cock. The filters allow me to customize the "feel" of my cock pictures and instagram them right away.

i think a flip phone designed like the tracker sight from cod ghosts would be cool in the future.

solid rectangle bottom half, top half that flips up is either glass with holo display, or semi-opaque solid tech like from mass effect

>>7472117
There are some little touches I like.
How it applies to more than just the home screen icons in particular.
Tabs menu and even volume icon are also affected by the 3D effect.
It also holds a decent frame rate while doing this which I'm most surprised by.

>>7472131
>free iPhoto.
There really is only one choice.

>>7472137
And why would that be useful? why not just use the camera of the phone to simulate the effect (which some apps already do)? Then you wouldn't have to deal with a retarded see through screen.

>>7472121
Black. White has issues where the back separates from the rest of the phone.

>>7472165
same reason all sci-fi interfaces are transparent or holographic (i don't actually know, other than "it looks futuristic"). if a parallax-free holographic display could be designed though that would actually be useful, the screen could be viewed from any angle

>>7472137

I saw an app that you can buy that lets you "text and walk" by opening the camera and displaying your text conversations with what's coming through your camera as the background. I think it would be cool to have that feature as a permanent background to give the phone an opaque/transparent layout. Would be very effaaayyy

>>7472198
Will never happen.
>always on camera.
>Muh NSA.

[Spoiler]inb4 Microsoft releases a windows phone with just this[/spoiler]

>>7472211
i'm actually secretly okay with this NSA big brother stuff in hopes that cyberpunk will actually happen. just think, facial-detection-avoiding haircuts & makeup and thermal-masking clothing might become reality

>>7472227
Enjoy being unemployable because your Facebook friends wear the wrong makeup.
