Moi? I use currently a NOTE 20 ultra 5g. Probably my second best phone, I only hate the fact it’s so massive (I miss being able to use just one hand for my phone) and the mediocre battery life for someone like me that watches a lot of videos. But the S pen is so handy those few times you need it.
One Plus 8, it’s been more than 4 years. I refreshed it with a /e/OS install and I still love it!
I’ve only had to replace the charging port a few days ago. It’s not too hard if you have a heat gun
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.
My current and best phone is the Pixel 7 :3
Samsung S10 here. It needs replacement or LineageOS.
Best phone? I LOVED my Nexus5. Oh man, was that a great phone. Before that - get ready - StarTAC 7800: a feature-flip. Not as indestructable as my micro-TAC 550 but still a great phone.
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
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.
Best phone I ever had was an LG G7. It was dope.
Pixel 7 pro here. They’re overpriced at release but if you’re willing to buy last year’s model they’re pretty good.
Asus Zenphone 10; headphone jack, minimal bloatware, two physical sim slots, good battery, small size so it actually fits in a pocket, finger print sensor on the power button so it’s seamless to unlock. Best phone I’ve had in quite a while
One possible drawback is that I don’t think it supports esim or has an sd card slot.
US owner of an EU Fairphone 4. It is functionally locked to T-mobile due to AT&T not wanting unlocked devices on their network and the 5G bands dont always line up correctly so calls while driving are tricky. Beyond that, I love the device and can do that cool party trick where you can take out your battery and everyone stares in awe at my organic, free-range smart phone. (That part is a lie, I dont go to parties).
Joking asside, I like having an attempt at an ethically sourced phone, even though it is a finicky device. There is a US redistributor and they sell a model with region appropriate changes and a de-googled cloud backup service, but im not in the market for replacing this thing yet.
Eu fairphone 4 user here. Obviously i have none of these issues as phone/network locking isnt a thing here. And im running lineageos and not fully degoogled ( which im ok with ).
But the party trick is very real haha.
I plan to use this phone for at least 8 years as my previous phone, a one plus x, i used for 8 years.Fairphone also has 5 (!) year of warranty if you sign up for free.
And you can still buy all the spare parts for the Fairphone 2 which came out 9 years ago.
So getting to 8 years shouldn’t be a problem.
Exactly the reason why i replaced the one plus x ( which was running a lineageos android 11 build fine ) with the fairphone 4 :D
Samsung Galaxy S20, still doing good work for me.
Nothing really compares to that first iPhone though.
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.
Current: Pixel 6a. Probably the best out of all the phones I’ve owned. Wish the battery life was a little bit longer.
I do have a soft spot for my first ever smartphone, the Nexus 4. I adored it.
Agreed, Nexus 4 was amazing and I miss it.
The best phone was probably a landline that was shaped like a duck.
It quacked when you had an incoming call.How is it that technology has gone backwards in this area?
You should still be able to make your phone quack when an incoming call comes.
