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.

What phone are you using? Galaxy S23 Ultra 512GB

Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities? Really happy with it. Got it recently. I love the battery, the screen quality, the camera quality, the speed.

I don't like that the image editing sometimes grabs a different image than the one captured, but it's only when zoomed.

Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot? I had the S5, S7, S10+, I tried out the iPhone 11 and went back to the S23U.

I liked the S10+ best, and S5 least because it heated and died overnight lol.

How often do you upgrade to a new phone? Not that often. Usually 3-4 years?

What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc. None. The ecosystem is pretty garbage honestly. I have Airpods, and an Amazefit watch with notify firmware.

Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.) I use Windows for gaming, MacOS for laptop, Airpods for headphones. The right tool for the job makes all the difference. :)
