    call quality and gorilla glass?

    Been curious for a while, all you honor 5xers, how is the call quality on the phones? the phone seems like a great bang for buck, made by huwaii, 1080p, 5.5", metal construction - but is the call quality good or is it nexus level muffled and scratchy? Also is the screen gorilla glass? have you...

    recommended android phone under or near 300$ and still gives you freedom like root?

    I've been a nexus fanboy, had the nexus 4 and now the 5x - but honestly the call quality was terrible on the n4 and i was hoping the 5x would be better since its newer, but it's just as bad if not worse, especially on FI - fi was very excited when i had 25$ phone bills, but it's so embrassing to...

    do you think google nexus phones will keep audio jacks?

    i'm all for change, if it's in the right direction, but as an audiophile who knows what gives good quality audio and what's marketing BS, I'm not a fan of the whole "lets get rid of 3.5mm jacks!" thing... People for it argue "oh well it gives room for aftermarket dac/amps!" - but anyone who has...

    Been a few weeks on pure nexus rom

    And I love it, night and day difference. Astronomically more stable than stock nexus, and faster and better battery life. Tbh even though nexus ROMs are aosp, I've noticed they have been pretty subpar since 5.0. I was getting very frustrated with my nexus 4 and then when I loaded cyanogenmod...

    any solution to muffled calls?

    i kinda knew some of these issues with nexus 5x and project fi, but i still think its a decent value, though the muffled calls are getting quite annoying. i turned off wifi calling and that seems to help a bit, though at home i dont have good service at all so i rely on wifi calling which gives...

    an honest review of the honor 5x

    I saw this video by tek syndicate, he's pretty legit and it kinda eye opening about the 5x... thing is huawei has hyped and marketed it to hell and back again, and i feel as android users we shouldn't just give into hype like some kinda iDiot - a couple deal breakers for me, even with the specs...
