i need more phone options rather than just Samsung and Google so YES!

Motorola's new phones are interesting too.

[–] Devgard@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

very curious about their new flips, although the third party repair process is my current worry

Not really it has no easy repairable parts and no privacy focused os support

A goddamn deal breaker

[–] Miguel@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

That's one good point

Despite popular opinion being that it sucks, I kinda like what Nothing is doing. I'm happy with my Pixel 7, but if I was in the market for a unique looking android phone I would consider it.

That notch reminds me of the IPhone's mute switch.

Carl needs to prove himself first. OnePlus had some scummy tactics and a lot of controversies.

I'm glad there's still competition in the Android scene, though!

What do you think the red flags are?

[–] Miguel@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Many of them based on a leak photos which are now claimed to be fake.

This pic looks like it can be a nice wallpaper

I would be very excited if they sold (literally) any spare parts for their devices. I don't understand why Pei promotes it as a long lasting flag-ship killer but can't provide any spare parts lol.

Kind of a toss up between Nothing (2) and Fairphone 4 for me. My current phone still has quite a bit of life left in it, so I have time to make up my mind. What has you worried about the Nothing (2)?
