RULES

While this is s community focused on Android, some of us have devices from the Android, Apple, Windows and Linux worlds, etc. We may prefer Android, but overzealous and obsessive adherence to Android as some sort of infallible platform won't be tolerated long here.

That said, being critical of brands is fine. Android is frustrating in some ways, just like iOS and so forth. Let's be upfront about that.

Be thoughtful and helpful, even with 'stupid' questions. Otherwise, as ya mama said, say nothing at all. The world won't be made better or worse by snarky dudes schooling naive newcomers on Lemmy.

So, I thought I'd kick things off here with some community building.

Quote this post with answers to the below!

What phone are you using?

Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities?

Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot?

How often do you upgrade to a new phone?

What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc.

Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.)

Currently on an iPhone 13 Pro and M1 MacBook. I previously had a Pixel 2 for many years, and many Nexus phones before that. My love for Android hasn’t faded, but iMessage (or really just seamless text message forwarding to my computer in general) was too alluring; I find myself using fb messenger more and more though, so that’s kind of a moot point now. Whenever I next upgrade I’ll probably go back to Android unless I find some new killer app or integration on iPhone.

I’ve been on macOS for over a decade though and I don’t see myself switching from my MacBook though unless competitors can double their battery life and improve their trackpads.
