Samsung Galaxy S22. Wanted it to be an upgrade from my dying OnePlus 6, but smaller. Not much choice for small, but beefy phone.

iPhone 13 mini. I’m so sad they discontinued the mini, it’s the perfect phone for me so I’m holding onto it until it dies which seems to be coming soon :(

Still rocking the galaxy S9+.

My original one died a year ago and I tried the pixel 6, s22+, Asus Zenfone 9, and ROG phone 2, but nothing came close to being as nice to use, (no headphone jack, buggy software, little customization) so I got another s9+!

Oneplus 6T with Ubuntu Touch/LineageOS Dualboot

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Using Xiaomi 12T Pro running xiaomi.eu rom on it. At first I didn't like their ui but now I think it's pretty good. I used to go for AOSP roms but I'm getting used to MIUI now.

I don't want to install nothing that isn't the default stock though, with some changes in this vs, but stock.

In the last I'd instal a custom rom as soon as I got a new phone (Cyanogenmod or wtv name they came with after), but after 4 years or so of doing this I noticed that my pictures looked like crap when compared to photos with the stock rom.

Apparently it was due to drivers and some of the drivers not being public. At the time whenever I went on vacations, is change back to stock to have the best photos possible. But I don't really feel like doing that all over again.

Still rocking my Oneplus 7Pro but thinking I might want to upgrade to the new Google Pixel 8 when it comes out. I like stock Android and Google phones have been pretty nice from what I've seen and from the little amount of time I've used and played with them in stores. I like the ability to install a privacy focused rom like GrapheneOS too. But the only thing now holding me back from deciding on the Pixel 8 is the temperature reader like that's something I know I won't be using and I don't want to be paying for that when I know I won't be using that feature.

Motorola Edge 30. Really close to stock Android and no much bloatware. Will be switching to a Pixel soon.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Motorola One Action. Close to stock Android, good enough for what i need, and it was cheap. That last one was the real reason to get it, if I'm honest...

Edit: Seeing mentions of the fairphone, i looked into that but when i needed a new phone, the existing version (2?) Was quite outdated. It's a contender for my next phone, though. Hopefully not for a while.

Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite. It was €130, good battery, no bloatware, does all the things I need from a smartphone even if the touchscreen is starting to freak out from time to time. Probably need to change the display but I'm broke atm

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm getting a Sony Xperia 10 III cause one can also install SailfishOS on it. Sony provides AOSP for their phones, and a headphone Jack.

Poco X3 NFC with a custom ROM, i bought it because it is cheap and it's great for buildbotting.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Poco X3 NFC with LineageOS.

200,-€ price, excellent photo quality if paired with fitting GCAM mod (AGC) plus config. Powerful enough as daily driver, privacy-frieendly enough after some simple changes, runs everything I need & if it drops & breaks (2 kids at home...) it's an affordable loss (I'm diligent about backups).

Galaxy S23, because I use Android for 13 years now (no Apple devices for me) and it is one of the few smaller devices. Also great battery life, performance (finally Snapdragon in Europe) and very long update support.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Xiaomi Mi10 Lite with stock firmware. Xiaomi QIN22F as a second phone. I've tried some third-party Android variations, but none of them, including LineageOS, I liked to use. Or rather I liked LineageOS when it was still CyanogwenMod, and then, as usual, everything went wrong.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Nice!

I run a oneplus one, with lineageOS 18 and magisk. I am able to do banking, UPI(a quick form of banking in my country), document management(digilocker, for official govt issued documents), social media, etc.

It's slow sometimes but if you can ensure it doesn't heat up, it's a really good setup.

It's a hand-me-down, one of the best handmedowns anyone could want

I got an S20FE because the screen on my s8+ was smashed to hell. I like the size, flat screen, it was relatively cheap at the time ~$500, it has expandable storage, a high end chipset, and 120hz screen. Overall, I love this phone, have no regrets buying it. Hoping I can hold onto it for a few more years haha

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

S tier phone, my only complaint is that the bootloader is locked down and downward facing speaker. Next phone I buy will be able to be de-googled.

The battery life is head and shoulders above 99% of the market, oled is a killer feature, so is 120 hz.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I have a Poco x3 NFC because it's cheap for the hardware it delivers and I have no money to buy a Pixel Phone ..it runs Lineage OS with microg to degoogle it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Nothing Phone 1. Using it because looks amazing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

s8+ cuz i loved the curves, /e/OS cuz that was the only one fully functional with my model

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ because refurbished it's affordable, has 256GB standard storage and a micro SD slot. Oh and 12GB of RAM. I also have a Tab s7+ and buds 2 and like how they work together. I'm not opposed to iOS, in fact I use a MacBook pro daily, but if those stingy fucks won't start offering decent storage on base model phones, I'm not interested.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

iOS, iPhone X currently. Still works fine so haven't felt much pressure to upgrade. Battery still great, performance is good. I don't use my phone for pictures so haven't needed a better camera.

I have considered changing brands when I next upgrade, I would sorta like to get a Huawei phone. I am just so used to iOS at this point, I am worried about the learning curve. I struggle to use other phone OS the same way I struggle to use non-Nikon cameras, my brain just refuses to work right. Throw me down in front of a new desktop OS and I will usually grasp it instantly. It's weird.
