Moi? I use currently a NOTE 20 ultra 5g. Probably my second best phone, I only hate the fact it’s so massive (I miss being able to use just one hand for my phone) and the mediocre battery life for someone like me that watches a lot of videos. But the S pen is so handy those few times you need it.
Some motorola g30-something.
Great value for money. I don’t care for anything extravagant when it comes to phones.
Samsung Galaxy A13 5G. It’s fine.
Using a mid budget Redmi Note 10 pro, nothing exceptional, it works pretty good with a nice screen. My favorite was the Nexus 5.
cheapest. there hasnt been an innovation since they added bluetooth i care or need.
my phone is [generally] not used for content consumption, i have real machines for that.
Like your mouth and stomach?
What a beautiful pussy you are you are, what a beautiful pussy you are
One Plus 8, it’s been more than 4 years. I refreshed it with a /e/OS install and I still love it!
I’ve only had to replace the charging port a few days ago. It’s not too hard if you have a heat gun
Currently using a Google Pixel 8, I’ve been reading up about GrapheneOS.
Why would an average user need to install this over the stock OS?
New interface, customisation, fdroid apps, security updates/data protection; the list goes on, I think…? 🤔 I haven’t looked it up in a while; but it’s definitely one of the reasons I got a Pixel 8 Pro. You should stay curious.
To not be dependent on Google and send all your data to them.
I know the average user doesn’t care, but they should.
Pixel 7 pro here. They’re overpriced at release but if you’re willing to buy last year’s model they’re pretty good.
Samsung Galaxy S10+ stable, battery lasts, all good
Asus Zenphone 10; headphone jack, minimal bloatware, two physical sim slots, good battery, small size so it actually fits in a pocket, finger print sensor on the power button so it’s seamless to unlock. Best phone I’ve had in quite a while
One possible drawback is that I don’t think it supports esim or has an sd card slot.
Currently using a Moto G Stylus 2020, this thing has never had major updates pushed, and the last security one was a while ago, it’s pretty decent but has gotten much slower over time and is probably near the end of its life.
The best phone I had was an iphone 7, it was originally terrible, but the it was iOS 12? (13?) that came out and it was so much better. Like you would have major performance issues with this thing before the update, Apple was probably at their peak around then. I stopped using it because it was vendor locked to Sprint, and sprint stopped existing in my area when T Mobile bought them out
I absolutely love my Xperia 1 VI. I didn’t realize how much I missed the headphone port until I had it back. Also there’s so many fun camera settings to play around with. And the expandable storage that I loaded up with ROMs
US owner of an EU Fairphone 4. It is functionally locked to T-mobile due to AT&T not wanting unlocked devices on their network and the 5G bands dont always line up correctly so calls while driving are tricky. Beyond that, I love the device and can do that cool party trick where you can take out your battery and everyone stares in awe at my organic, free-range smart phone. (That part is a lie, I dont go to parties).
Joking asside, I like having an attempt at an ethically sourced phone, even though it is a finicky device. There is a US redistributor and they sell a model with region appropriate changes and a de-googled cloud backup service, but im not in the market for replacing this thing yet.
Eu fairphone 4 user here. Obviously i have none of these issues as phone/network locking isnt a thing here. And im running lineageos and not fully degoogled ( which im ok with ).
But the party trick is very real haha.
I plan to use this phone for at least 8 years as my previous phone, a one plus x, i used for 8 years.Fairphone also has 5 (!) year of warranty if you sign up for free.
And you can still buy all the spare parts for the Fairphone 2 which came out 9 years ago.
So getting to 8 years shouldn’t be a problem.
Exactly the reason why i replaced the one plus x ( which was running a lineageos android 11 build fine ) with the fairphone 4 :D
Current: Pixel 6a. Probably the best out of all the phones I’ve owned. Wish the battery life was a little bit longer.
I do have a soft spot for my first ever smartphone, the Nexus 4. I adored it.
Agreed, Nexus 4 was amazing and I miss it.
I’ve been a fan of the Pixels. I’m on a 7 now, no complaints.
Currently a Note 8, my favorite was the Note 4. I love big phones lol. I have fat fingers and I just really liked it. My least favorite was the iPhone. I got an iPhone 2 awhile ago and even jail breaking it wasn’t enough for me to like it. I actually had that phone until a few months ago. I was using it as an alarm clock (that’s literally all it could do), but the battery broke the screen, so 🤷🏿♀️
Note 8, wow that old? Does that even work nowadays, the updates must had killed the ram
I’m going to have to replace it. 😮💨 It’s to the point where I can’t update apps because it’s too old. And it takes ages to send anything. But it’s served me well.
Do you use the pen often?
Nope. Lost it ages ago.
