Currently on a CMF phone 1.
Best phone is a tie between Nokia E70 or the HTC Dream. Suitable form factors and physical keyboards <3
I miss my LG Alias 2
I'm currently using a Samsung s21 ultra, and it's kinda meh. The compass is not bad, it's horrendous. It used to be offset by say 90 degrees, but nowadays it seems more likely that it's a random number generator from 0 to 360 degrees, making any maps app bacically unusable unless you look at road markings, and other buildings to guess which way you're facing. The main camera has over time developed a hardware issue that makes all pictures always out of focus, unless you hit the phone on a hard surface to dislodge the focusing mechanism. From a software standpoint it's a good device. No major bugs, and it's pretty stabile.
My favorite phone was a used Samsung s6 as it felt kinda "flawless". Battery was good, camera was great (for the time), and hardware was pretty awesome. It was a great phone while it was still getting updates.
I miss my note20. I'm a behemoth, with massive hands, so it was just the right one-hand size for me hah. It was also just a quality phone that survived a lot of abuse. Contrast to my pixel 7 pro, that I bought for one feature, and whose screen has had numerous issues in the year I've had it... Not happy with that switch.
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 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.
I have had 3 brands. One I cannot remember, ZTE, and Samsung. Samsung has been the best I've had. My A71 has been my best phone so far. I'd say my A15 is the best, but I only had it maybe a month or two before accidentally going swimming with it.
Current Pixel 9 Pro. Second best phone I've used, but it hasn't stood the test of time yet.
Best I used was the Galaxy S7.
Note 9 would be my top choice, but it started having display issues around the 2-year mark.
Current: Asus zenfone 9 favorite: Nextbit Robin
such a perfect phone for the price. Wish they made something like it now
Current is a Pixel 6 Pro, it's faster than the 5a but the 5a had better battery life. Both with Graphene. Best would be either the unbreakable LG P500 or Pixel 6 Pro, worst was definitely the LG G3.
