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.
Pixel 4a. I’m too lazy to get a new phone that often. Though, I don’t get any proper updates anymore, that sucks. Best phone has always been the current one I use at the time.
iPhone 16 pro. Too early to tell but this might be my favorite ever.
Previous ones I also really enjoyed were all nexus or pixels but they all inevitably shit themselves after a couple years of use. Most recent one pixel 7 just decided it was gonna drain 6% battery per hour while idling out of nowhere. And nothing I tried fixed it. And I tried a lot.
Custom rom pr battery replacement?
I miss my Galaxy S4. After that, things just got worse and worse… Shoutout to my Nexus 6 for the screen size and ratio, though.
iPhone 15 pro currently. Blackberry passport was the GOAT though.
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.
I’ve owned a total of 3 smartphones in my life. The very first one I got was an Alcatel Evolve. I got that in 2017 I want to say. It was a budget phone, just enough to get the job done and had it for roughly 5 years. I ended up smashing it in 2021 because by that point, it’s performance has slowed to a crawl and it’s battery life was poor to the point where it could not be used anymore for daily use.
To replace it I got a Samsung Galaxy A02s, another budget-line phone and it is still around me today. Not quite as good as it was the first year I had it for and it’s only purpose is to give me entertainment during breaks and meal times at work.
Alongside it, my current and best phone that’s my primary is the Samsung Galaxy A32-5G. Because of how much I spent on it, I gave that phone an Otterbox protection and it has done wonders since there were times because of my stupid coat pockets, it’d fall about a couple feet from the pocket to the concrete flooring at work. It is used for everything, almost.
The OnePlus 7t back when it was on oxygen os 10. Great hardware, perfect software. It was the first phone I got where I didn’t need or want to flash a custom rom. Unfortunately, every software update that it got since then felt like a downgrad. After oxygen os 10, oxygen os and Oppo’s color os have been going through something of a merge. The result is that oxygen os is no longer as stock-like as it used to be and lots of small convenience features have disappeared in favor of flashy yet useless-to-me features. I have an 8t now and it’s fine but I don’t think that I’ll get another OnePlus.
Samsung Galaxy S10+ stable, battery lasts, all good
The best phone was probably a landline that was shaped like a duck.
It quacked when you had an incoming call.How is it that technology has gone backwards in this area?
You should still be able to make your phone quack when an incoming call comes.
This cherry phone with a physical keyboard from the Philippines that allowed you to watch television using an antenna in the top right. However it sadly stopped booting for me.
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
On an iphone 13 mini because it’s just about the last reasonably-sized smartphone left even though ios has tons of little quirks that annoy me. Favorite was probably the OG Pixel I had until like 2020 when it finally died, RIP
I have the Samsung XCover 6 pro. Solely because it has replaceable batteries. Kinda a bad camera but I dont take a lot of photos so it doesnt matter to me.
Huawei nova 3 was the best one I had, Second best one I had was iPhone 6s plus because it was handed down to my mom from my dad and then handed down to me and i still had software updates and was still smooth compared flagship samsung trash i owned that slowed down after 4 years. I might have put iphone6s as the best if sideloading was easier.
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.
