Used Google Pixel XL gen 1?

Posted

I need a phone as mine died just as I was considering a pc upgrade during Prime day. So an awful timing. I can't decide on the two phones.

Leaning towards the Redmi because of the removable back cover so I can replace the battery without problems in the future and bit longer battery life. But I also read there are wifi and cell reception issues with it. They are pretty much the same price.

 

Xiamo Redmi 5 Plus

Huawei Honor 7x

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Only one I found that is cheaper then the other phones is this. Im just iffy on how much wear and tear they've gone through and if the seller is trusty worthy.

Doubtful, I've dropped my used pixel at least 100 times without issue.

I might just go with that then. Found out twrp is already fully supported. How easy is it to repair? Replace batterys and stuff like the power connector?

About the same as other phones like it?

Unlikely that it'll be necessary
