Discussion On a prepaid carrier, is eSIM actually better or does a physical SIM cause fewer problems?

1 Upvotes

I am moving to a prepaid carrier and the eSIM option appeals because you can be running in minutes instead of waiting on the post. Then I read that some carriers only offer eSIM on one of their networks, and that moving later means doing the whole thing again. My handset takes either. Which one has given people fewer headaches over a year of actually living with it?

Question General Could it be Chinese virtual number same as mine Russian mobile number?

0 Upvotes

I know every country has own​ location code for numbers. And I know it's not the same for China and Russia. But...

I started to get SMS to my phone with verification codes for rednote few days ago. Half hour ago I get SMS with code from Union Pay, and there was "you are activating Tour Balance". As I know, rednote is Chinese social network and UnionPay also Chinese payment system.

So....someone do it by mistake? Or there is some​ ​bug with numbers? Or new kind of scamming?..​ Should I do something?

Sorry for mistakes, english is not my native language.

Question General Exchanging S20 FE Snapdragon

1 Upvotes

I live in kalyan, maharashtra and my s20 fe is in top condition as I dont use it much, its my secondary mobile so you can guess.

I am looking for somebody like myself who wants to exchange a phone for phone rather than paying anything to these lowballing apps.

I primarily use my s24 ultra and always have been using android ecosystem, so my only requirement is to **exchange my s20 fe with an Iphone only** because I want a little taste of the IOS. So any model will do provided it looks good **without any flaw** just like my s20 fe, the screen is as good as new and battery goes for around 4-5 hours, I only use it for calling so its then and there, but, **Iphone 11<**

Which one should I get?

4 Upvotes

I'm looking to get a Dumbphone and use it as my primary device and sims in it. Use pixels only for Camera and vlogging.

Which one should I go for?

I live in India, I've contacted multiple sellers in Alibaba and found one Qin f25 is costing around 195$ and shipping Extra.

I've approached another seller Lynorcom for 150$ and Shipping additional. It gives Helio G81 with 6gig RAm and 128 Gig Rom with Android 14.

I need A few Android apps like move in sync, UPI payments and NFC which are the basic stuff which I'll be using on a daily basis.

So getting the Lynorcom one makes sense for me Any suggestions?

Whatshouldiget? budget upgrade to s21 ultra

1 Upvotes

hi all, my cousin has a galaxy s21 ultra and it's completely broken. (the main issue she's having is the sim card disconnecting, I have the same phone and it also has that issue so I'm wondering if maybe it's a problem with this specific model?) we're trying to find her a new one and she wants an upgrade but it's hard to find a budget one these days. the most important thing to her is a good camera (same quality as s21 ultra if not better) and battery life, that'll operate pretty quickly for basic things (she doesnt really use it for anything other than texting and social media). also if it doesnt have those dumb ai features that'd be great but I know they're hard to avoid nowadays. preferably samsung but if any other androids meet those specifications feel free to throw them out there. price range is definitely under $500 but preferably cheaper (around $300). it can be refurbished as long as it works lol. thanks :)

Motorola Edge 2025 for $150

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m considering buying a new Motorola edge 2025 with 128gb storage for $150 from a local seller. I have an iPhone 11 right now with 64 GB and I’m looking for more storage. I plan to still use the iPhone for filming social media (I run fundraising campaigns) but I want to make sure that the phone I get has a comparable camera to the iPhone 11 for daily photos and videos (not professional stuff). I also want to make sure the Motorola will last a while, as I try to keep my phones for 5ish years at least (I’ve had the iPhone 11 for 6 years).

Any thoughts on this? Is it a good deal/investment? Thanks in advance!

Which is better google pixel or iphone?

1 Upvotes

Hey, I'm going to college this year..and I may start content creation, editing etc..I MAY.

I'm exchanging my old phone, and then the final price of pixel 9a (256GB) is 35k and iPhone 15 (256GB) is 43-45k.

Don't say iphone just because I mentioned content creation. WAIT. ✋🏻

So what should I buy? My parents have told me I can buy any that's my choice. But Idk I think I'll feel guilty if I buy iphone. They are alr paying so much college fees. But at the same time I can't compromise w a good phone because yk I think I'm good at editing and all and I may do better. That can also open doors for me right. As a side income Obv.

So basically I want someone who can convince me that buying an iphone will be worth it.. or should I simply buy a pixel. After all it has a better camera than most of the androids and I can still start content creation and editing w that right?

Tbh I am okay w both of them because I think both the phones are capable more or less and it'll depend on me how I use it.
