Currently: Samsung S21 FE 5G Overall I like it....it's snappy and does what I need. Not a huge fan or OneUI, Samsung's take on Android. Got it for wireless charging mostly.

Previous Phones: Motorola Z2 Force - my favorite Android phone, just not fast enough today. Loved the Moto Mods Nexus 6 - Loved it at the time, but became too big for me and went for smaller to follow it. Nexus 5, Nexus 4, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S... iPhone 3GS - First and Last iPhone...got tired of jailbreaking to use it the way I wanted to.

My upgrades have mostly been by choice leading up to the Z2 Force. Got them as new ones I liked came out. After that it was out of necessity.

Other Android I use: We have 3 NVidia shields in front of my media center running Emby. I've had a couple of Android SmartWatches, but don't currently have one.

I'm on Windows 10 for my primary PC/Laptop. Linux powers my servers. My dad uses Apple Products, has a iPhone 13 Pro, some iPad, and a Watch 8. I'm his caregiver as he is getting older. Not really looking to switch him as it works for him.
