Ask Lemmy

Unfortunately, an iPhone 13 Mini.

I’d love to switch back to GrapheneOS (used it on a Pixel 3a for a while), but I really don’t like Pixel hardware. The Fairphone 5 is on my radar, but it’s expensive for what it is and also isn’t available to purchase in the US. I’m also not sure if CalyxOS supports it yet, and there aren’t any other Android roms that I’m interested in.

So I’m suffering with iOS until something else becomes available.

I’m hoping Linux phones become viable within the next 5-10 years. I have Ubuntu Touch on my Pixel 3a and PostMarketOS on my Pinephone. Mobile Linux is super cool and fun to play with, but is nowhere near daily driver ready yet.

get an empty can with some wire attached, connect a second can to the end of the wire and provide your intended contact with said second can.

im still on a pixel 3a

They're all pretty much the same, unless you're looking for specific use cases, e.g. camera, outdoors ruggedness, gaming, specific OS build, etc. I stopped getting flagships once I realized my old ones battery started to swell like a cheaper phone. I'm on Android, so I get to replace any app with the one of my choice - I'm particular about data submissions to home and sneaky stuff like autotagging. Now all I look for is a recent android build (for app compatibility), decent camera hardware (I'll replace the app), IP68 and a good price.

Fairphone because I want it to last 5+ years without any annoying repairs.

Bought myself a Pixel 6 used a while back. Been very happy with it

I'm on a OnePlus 5. Had it for a few years now and love it. Best phone I ever had.

I really like the looks of those TCL NXTpaper phones. They use a matte color eink display that looks amazing.

Google pixel so i could put graphene os on it.

Buy a refurbished or new in box flagship phone from a couple years ago. I paid like 1400$ for a Sony Xperia 1 III but now 2 years later it's like 500$, refurbished with a warranty. It's great value considering most phones brands don't change much in only 2 years and you still get a pretty cutting edge device.

Recently got myself a Pixel 7a and it's been a great experience.

I'm a Pixel fan. Between the whole family, I think we have almost every generation.

Lemmy users be like: I built my own phone

I still have the pixel 6 pro, I want it to last until at least a pixel 10. I treat it like an appliance, I'm done with custom roms

I have my old oneplus 6 on my desk as a postmarketOS test device

Still using my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, for me it's perfect.

Continues to be up to date, hardware and software wise.

Galaxy S10. Still rockin the headphone port.

A Librem 5. It's exactly what i want, a small desktop PC with modem in it.

Xiaomi 13: great for pictures, shitty OS

OnePlus 8T with LineageOS 21 on it. Thing's already a version of Android past official support, and it works great. Zero complaints, I don't see myself upgrading anytime soon. I expect to see at least another 2 years on that phone, maybe longer. Averaging 25% memory utilization, so it's got room for Android's enshittification for quite a while still.
