I guess this would technically be for /g/, but it's Go related so I'll ask here.

My piece of shit phone is outdated and I need a new one so I can play. Currently looking at this one.

Yea or nay?
If not, what phones do you recommend? No Apple shit.

Galaxy S5s are currently fairly cheap. Bought a new one @250€. Shit is cash and running smoothly. Also awesome battery, even exchangable.

Enjoy your shit battery.

Try to find a cheap Sony phone, they're battery wizards. Fuck, get anything other than a Samsung.

If you want it cheap, go for an older phone that doesn't have gyro. AR mode eats up your battery life, anyway.

It's easier to just get a power bank. For like 20 bucks, you can get a pocket-sized power bank that can let nearly any phone run Pokemon Go for a full day.

My iPhone runs it great and lasts a long time, my friends with android devices run it great and last a long time.

Who fucking cares, arguing about smart phones in 2016 is fucking dumb. They're all pretty much great.

Yeah phone battery doesn't matter, a portable battery is going to be absolutely essential if you plan on playing for more than an hour at a time.

Agreed. A portable battery has been a blessing. The one I have has two USB output ports. So I can share with somebody if I need to. I was cleaning around and found an extra portable charger that my mom gave me the last time I visited. It doesn't seem to have a big battery on it but it'll be good to have in a pinch.

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S6. Sure the battery is shit, but I figure everyone's is playing this game regardless. I have an energy bank and an external battery phone case on the way in the mail so I don't really have to worry too much.

It's sleek and fast as shit, or rather, as sleek and fast as it can be with this game. I don't get as much lag as most of my friends seem to have, but they have cheaper phones than me so I don't know.

Also, Apple isn't shit. Just your opinion. Any phone can be shit or not shit. It depends on your opinion and on how you use it. But since you're a faggot who just wants a shitty phone to play Go, go buy one of those fanboy-favourite Samsung train wrecks.

Though that being said, Apple haters often tend to be the same people who love Samsung phones. Oh the irony.

If you have the disposable income get an HTC 10.

Awesome audio, battery, and build quality. Fast, good camera, and good screen quality. S7 is fantastic too but the 10 is an alternative to touchwiz

I've got the Mediatek version of the Redmi Note 3 as pictured in the OP. Geekbuying.com have them cheap as fuck, battery life is fucking good. Would recommend/10. Just put Nova Launcher on it, MIUI's homescreen is blegh.

No. You need a certain Android OS for it to be able to work; Intel CPU phones are fucked; most cheap/throwaway phones will not run the game.

>My iPhone runs it great
Your iPhone is about ten times as expensive as most phones on the market, you fucking moron.

Buying a phone just for Pokemon Go is fucking stupid. You're going to be spending at least 100 burgers for a fucking smartphone app that requires you to get outside and walk around instead of comfortably playing the game indoors. It's normalfaggotry at its finest.

Fuck off.

I'm using a Note 4. I also have a Nexus 6, but the Note has a 10k mah extra battery. So I just swap Sims and grab the Note for GO, and I can still play here and there on my Nexus when I'm at work or out and about.
