had to share this, was just awful, if there ever was an ad to make buyers not consider getting a defy, this would be it

That's hysterical! And absolutely brain numbing. I'd shoot my TV if this came on!

He is saying that the AD/commercial is the worst...not the phone.
That is one of those deals where all you do is type a script out and it spits out this crappy type of animation...not a real ad by any means.

I bought my first Defy just before Christmas.
Well I lost my Defy in the Indian Ocean on holiday a couple of weeks ago..... waterproof video
Problem is I really liked the Defy but is it really worth paying for twice £260 x2 ?
What is it like with 2.2 and will it ever get an open bootloader?
Convince me to get another one, because I can't decide.
BTW I'm now using a Nokia 5800, so it may not take too long before I get the urge.

Question is: What are alternatives and what features do you need? If you need waterproof video, the selection is probably limited . 260 Pounds sounds a bit expensive IMHO.

1.Don't know yet, 2. probably not.
I personally think the phone is worth it's money and it is a solid and reliable device, but because of the locked bootloader I will not buy a Motorola phone again and hence will not convinve you in buying one.
By elementary economics/accountings, your bricked phone is historical and shouldn't be factor in your decision

Why pay so much? On ebay you can find new for 200-220 euros. i found mine for 190
problem resolved
checked on Ebay and put in a bid for £215 on a new sim free Defy and won. Was checking out Samsung Galaxy S as well, they look nice. FTR Nokia 5800 is fairly rubbish, but worth £70.... hello Ebay
The moral here was that we shouldn't be too tight with our money. Or tie string on your phone when in the sea, you choose.
out.
does any one know if there a keyboard for this phone

I got a Hype Mini Bluetooth Keyboard for like $9.99. Works fine, but I hardly even use it lol.
Freedom keyboard from Amazon
I had a friend who tried the previously linked keyboard from Amazon and he said it was of poor quality. He said that it felt like real cheap plastic and he broke it within a month. Now mind you I don't know how rough he was being with it, but that was his opinion on it.

I'd love one of these, I see more and more reasons to buy a 3D printer but I think I may need to wait until my wife buys yet another pair of shoes so I can soften the blow of me buying something else that I have no idea how to use.

LOL! This comment made my day!
In the same boat bro...
So I'm looking to buy the Snapdragon model of the S20 about £530 / $660 https://www.tecobuy.co.uk/en_UK/samsung-galaxy-s20-g9810-12gb-128gb-dual-sim-5g-cosmic-grey-4.html (not sure how reliable it they are)
Is it still worth buying? Are there issues i.e. battery life, camera quality.
Best phone I ever had.
Photo, phone quality, features.
Battery life is good, I have the Snapdragon.
You won't regret at this price.
Absolutely worth it at that price. I have the CDN version (G981W, snapdragon) and got it for $1650 CAD and love it, just wish I didn't have to pay so much for it.

Have you done any flashing or ROMs/ had any problems with that variant?

It's bootloader locked ATM , so no cfw ... unfortunate but it is still a wicked phone
Even using Dex @ work I barely reach 10g ram usage. Dex alone was a selling feature for me. And it's actually usable now, compared to when it launched back on the s8
I recently switched from my iPhone XS Max and completely happy with this phone. No buyers remorse in any way.
The Snapdragon model doesn't have any custom rom support does it?
Anyone using tempered glass on theirs?

Don't bother with tempered glass screen protectors unless you want to go with a Whitestone dome, the cheap ones are trash.
As for roms, there are none other than a GSI . And you need to have a non-NA snapdragon model that is bootloader unlockable.
Personally I don't miss root ..a few things, sure, but not enough to make me regret picking up this device

Hi, I use this site for buying https://eu.etoren.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s20-5g-dual-sim-g9810-128gb-grey-12gb-ram. I am from EU and they offer no taxes and customs since they have EU warehouse. It took 7 working days to arrived.

Did you ever buy this from Tecobuy?
---------- Post added at 05:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------
Ive decided im gonna go to the Samsung shop this week and buy the S20+
I know they are like £899, but I can have some peace of mind it's genuine, it will arrive and I can get it quickly.
Just not looking forward to transferring everything over
Yes I did going for, it gets getting ready to be dispatched

You dont need to replace the battery if the battery still gets you enough juice for +2 days.
