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.)

I'm really happy with it and the only thing I don't like is that there will probably never be another phone like it. It's a nice change of pace from the same boring smartphone designs we've seen the last 5 years or so.

I started with an iPhone 3G, then Galaxy S2 and then the first phone I bought myself was the Galaxy S4 which I flashed LineageOS on. After that I had two more iPhones again before getting sick of Apple's shenanigans and switching to Android.

I usually upgrade my phone every 3 years or so. The Galaxy S4 I had the longest at over 4 years.

I also have an Android E-Reader from Onyx and a Redmi Note 10 Pro with an AOSP ROM mostly used for development purposes.

I used to also own an iPad but I sold it and now don't own any Apple products and never plan on doing so again.
