is buying a xiaomi from ali express (to australia) safe? how do I avoid getting scammed and deal with warranty issues? or do I buy from an australian reseller based here?>>102410159
They're great phones for people who will make use of their features like playing demanding 3D chinkslop gachas like ZZZ or WuWa, fully using the impressive camera software to take good photos and great videos or being comfy with the whole ecosystem thing and sharing files between their devices seamlessly.
The average iPhone user here just uses it for social media, calls and music. You know, the basics that you can do smoothly even on a 3-4 year old refurbished iPhone or a 250 euro midrange chinkphone. They overpay for features they don't need and that's why I'm upset.>>102410197
good post.

yeah I am balkan too that's why I understand the poorfag 85-90 IQ mentality of these people

> You know, the basics that you can do smoothly even on a 3-4 year old refurbished iPhone or a 250 euro midrange chinkphone
yeah, avg iq of bulgaria and entire region is 90, and most smart people are in EU or America, so the people over there do shit like this. And again I don't think there's anything wrong with buying nice stuff, you know buy nice or buy twice as they say, its just funny because an a-series samsung is plenty good as you said for basic shit like that.>>102410161
NOT smartphone related, but I wanna buy or plan to buy a new wearable that will synchronise with my current phone or the next phone I might buy.

What fitness wearable is good enough to measure hiit workouts very closely?
My current smartwatch has once, while recording, jumped from 152 bpm to 172.
That*s bullshit and we all know it.

So is there a wearable that can track something like this:
- 3 exercises back to back with no rest unless I get to my goal reps within the minute. The remainder is for rest and moving to the next exercise.
- These 3 exercises are a cycle. I train to do 10 cycles.
- if I mange 10 cycles, I increase the reps by 1 and start at 5 cycles.
- if I do not, I abort the workout at that point.
- if I manage the full reps for 10 cycles, I progress on weights and start at 5 reps per cycle at 3 cycles.

the average bpm is either 150-182 by the watch, but since witnessing the real life monitoring, I got very frustrated.
My aim is to save up money to buy a garmin watch with the next generation of sensors.How does the ram expansion change the long term usability of a phone?
I am currently trying to save up 200€ for a new phone to buy and replace my redmi phone that has gone down to 80% battery capacity.
However, I am working with a company that is using Microsoft authenticator and their products and I need to keep up the supported android version that intune accepts.>go to big city

You mean that feature where you use the storage as a pagefile? Doesn;t help at all, it's just a meme, even on UFS4 devices. Don't skimp on actual RAM if you can.>>102410662
Got it. I will make sure I get the most ram for my money.Are there any spiritual successors to the A52s or is it still the go-to?
