Cell Phones Dedicated Discussion (Market Prices/ Troubleshooting/ Advice/ Recommendations)

Respected fellows,

Please suggest and advise.

planning to change handset, thinking among 2 set of options.

Option 1: Huawei P10 or mate 10 ?

Option 2: Samsung S8 or S8 plus.

i know both options are way apart, but want your guys opinion is it worth spending extra on option 2, when my main concerns are.

1. Best Camera
2. Fluent user experience, no lags (no gaming).
   3 .Full support/upgrades/updates.
   4.Dual SIM (with good battery backup.)

Please suggest if there is any other better option available.

Thanks and Regards,

Q: Galaxy Note 8 does not support Samsung's own "Write on Pdf" which is super annoying. Any alternative app that works exactly like that app?

The biggest benefit of write on pdf was that one can undo all the handwritten changes made even after saving files.

Q: Is there any way to use desktop version of MS Office and Excel in mobile? I want advanced functionality.

[StrikerX]

Yeah but those are Pixel's, small variant. I am looking for Pixel XL and that too preferably in Islamabad/Rwp.

But some people are happily using unlocked devices, how ?
I'll not be using the sim that comes with device itself, i'll be using the internet sim, if still issue persist, then what would you suggest ?

Where is xiaomi Service center in Karachi???
I have that famous continuous charging connect and disconnect issue with my redmi Note 4x

[crossfirex]

I am now getting annoyed with xiaomi which I have been promoting since long
In past none of my phone developed any sort of hardware problem at least for 2 years. My first smartphone was iPhone 3GS it remained without a problem for around 5years. Then Nexus 4 remained serviceable for around 3 years even after falling in flush and died in the hands of a cruel child
Then I bought Redmi Note 2 prime which developed hardware problem exactly after 1year and then completely died in 20months or so
Then I bought Nexus 5x which developed hardware problem after 14months
Then again Redmi Note 4x and I was thinking Xiaomi is mature now and I used to love it's products and got almost all of them but today again despite of EXTREME care which I do with my mobiles my Redmi Note 4x developed this idiotic problem of connect and disconnect while charging
