Motorola One Fusion with Android 11.
It’s a pretty basic model from 2020. No 5G, no 5Ghz WiFi, 4GB RAM, camera is nothing special.
But I like it, has a good enough performance for me. In the future, when I’m buying a newer phone, I’ll probably stick with Motorola. I like having a stock Android.
Sony Xperia 1 IV. Absolutely delightful phone. Android 13.
Galaxy Fold 4, de-Googled as much as I can feasibly. Ideally I’d love to run GrapheneOS on here, but that’s not gonna happen cause they only support Pixels. I could switch to a Pixel Fold, but I also like the multitasking in Samsung ROMs. Maybe one day, if Google adds stuff like floating windows, I might make the switch.
Grapheneos on a pixel 6 nothing else really interests me tbh.
I also have a pixel 6, still running the stock Google OS, but I’d like to try Graphene OS… Is there anything that worked on the stock Google OS that you had trouble with on Graphene OS?
Just android auto which isnt a big deal for me anymore. Adding an esim was weird but the forum helped a lot. Haven’t tried every app though so I cant be 100% sure but flashing and reflashing back to stock (if you dont end up liking grapheneos) is pretty straight forward and fast. Just backup everything important off of your phone and use a good cable
How’s battery life compared to regular pixel OS on it?
No clue about stock but I get about 12-15ish hours with 2 user profiles running with moderately heavy usage (some gaming and a lot of video watching).
12-15 hours of use or screen on time?
Of use, the screen would be off for a few minutes at a time every once a while to do whatever task I need to do. Havent done a test to see how long the battery lasts with the screen on but seems kinda interesting. I’ll let you know if I do decide to do it and report my results
Stock pixel 7. Happy with it. I hate ios. Everytime i grab my work ipad or have to use an iPhone i just cringe.
Redmi Note 9 Pro + LineageOS 18 w/ Magisk+root+LSPosed
Same phone, but using LineageOS for microg!
iPhone 14 Pro w/ iOS 17 developer beta.
Honestly, if NixOS ever comes to a phone in any real way, I’ll probably eventually switch.
iOS is solid as hell compared to Android, IMO and I have a love- hate relationship with swift; wish I could use Haskell for a native iPhone app.
e/OS/ on a Fairphone 3
Been rocking this setup for a while but I have been mulling over going back to stock Android. e/OS/'s implantation of Aurora app store is buggy as shit. Also it would be nice to have working NFC as well as a few other things too.
Still though, Google can eat shit so I might just stick it out on e/OS
The phone itself is fantastic though. Disappointed that the Fairphone 4 doesnt have AUX though. That or a working FM radio. Might sound silly but having an FM radio in your phone is crucial for emergency situations/ natural disasters etc. Would really really love to see Fairphone 5 implement these but I’m not holding my breath.
Same phone, same OS. For me NFC works fine, I routinely use it for yubikeys.I also use Aurora store, in addition to f-droid and the app lounge.
Do you ever have issues updating apps from the App Lounge?
Not really, and I would deserve issues, as I usually randomly update apps from whatever store I happen to open.
OnePlus 7 Pro, Android 12. I’m holding out for a pixel 8 pro. Stock android is much better than whatever this one plus skin is.
I actually reverted to android 11 on my OnePlus 8 Pro. The android 12 skin was literally unbearable.
iPhone 12 Pro with whatever the most recent OS version.
Fairphone 4 with iodéOS.
I considered Fair phone with Graphene but I am a US resident. I can’t order the phone.
LightPhone II with LightOS
The first Light phone II user I have ever encountered. I was really interested in this phone a few years back.
I am curious, are you using Lemmy from a PC or does LightOS allow you to install other apps. I ask because I was under the impression that Light’s intention was to reduce phone usage and kind of minimize your phone experience to prevent your from being hooked to the phone?
Is the screen EInk or an e-reader type screen. I remember thinking the screen seemed to be the most interesting part to me.
So my plan with LightPhone was to try to recreate my life circa 2004. Lemmy (or Digg) all I want on my desktop at home, but when I’m out and about, be mostly disconnected. I’m actually typing this on my old iPhone which I use over WiFi.
LPII has “apps,” but it’s a fixed selection that you can add or remove. There’s phone, calculator, alarm, podcasts, music (1gig for mp3s, no streaming), directions, notes, mobile hotspot. You can’t install 3rd party apps. There’s no web browser. No camera. MMS images get forwarded to my email.
The entire phone is managed over the website. Like you add MP3s by dragging them into your web browser and they show up on the phone next time it syncs.
The display is ePaper like a Kindle. It’s actually a bit silly IMO because there isn’t even an option to keep it always on, and the refreshing is slow and can make it difficult to navigate/type at times.
Really, it’s a very well thought out product. You get a premium product with features you wouldn’t find on a typical dumb phone (voice to text, direction, mobile hotspot), but it really forces you to disconnect. I tried the screen time features on iOS, but you can always turn them off when you really want to check it. This has helped me be a little more “in the moment” while I’m out, and it’s been fun trying to navigate the world without a smartphone.
Galaxy a52s 5G with crDroid, I’d love to try the pinephone with linux mobile
OnePlus 10 Pro on OxygenOs 13.1
I like it better than stock android, and while it’s not perfect I don’t dislike it enough to want to switch. OnePlus 1 came with CyanogenMod out of the box which was super fun at the time.
I mainly stick with OP for the 100W fast charging, otherwise I’d be happy to switch to Xiaomi or Huawei for better value
I’m 2 days into trying GrapheneOS on a Pixel 7a and it’s been a great experience all around. I reckon I found my main driver for the next couple of years.
