Which Android devices are you currently using?
What do you love most about them?
What do you dislike?

Device #1: Google Pixel 6a

Likes: Affordable. Decent screen size (not overly large). Clear and readable. Checks most of the boxes for features I want. Great camera quality.

Dislikes: cellular modem isn't the greatest, especially poor in fringe areas. Screen not quite bright enough to read in direct sunlight. Battery life could be better. Can get warm at times when doing intensive activity (streaming videos, recording video). Wish it had a true zoom lens like the flagship phones.

Device #2: Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet

Likes: big screen, great for reading magazine style content, videos, web surfing. Awesome battery life. Expandable storage.

Didlikes: Samsung's implementation of gesture navigation is slow and awkward compared to Google's. Wide-screen aspect ratio isn't the best for portrait orientation (I'd rather have 4:3). Also hard to find a case that fit. Not enough internal storage.
