Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.
I’m not buying any more iPhones. I got used to them and just continued buying them. But no more.
I’m going from Android to Apple soon, because I’m finally totally over all the present day Android BS. Good luck, have fun.
Word to the wise: don’t buy anything less than a flagship. Older flagship if you’re wanting to save some money. Samsung is best. I’ve played around with all kinds of mid-tier Androids & it’s a frustrating experience. The phones just don’t work well for long. Motorola sucks ass, don’t even bother.
With the mid range Pixels you get a very polished and high quality Android I’d say.
I admittedly have no personal experience with Pixel; I have observed that people who get Pixels either love them or they’re total shit & they hate them. No inbetweens, love or hate. My BIL got a shit one, but I see lots of happy Pixel owners.
I currently have an Oukitel Titan. It’s a little quirky sometimes but it’s also a beast of a phone, which makes up for any mishaps.
What do you mean by “don’t work well for long”?
I’ve been using my Sony Xperia phones for many years, without significant issues.
I mean I’ve just had a different experience than you, all of you. I have never had a Sony Xperia, but I’ve only heard good things.
I have been concerned about going off of main line Samsung. I did it once for the OnePlus One, which was solidly alright at the time, but then I went right back to mainline. S8 Active, SGS 20 5G FE, then that was failing & I went to Motorola but that was buggy as shit & I went back to my 20 FE until I got the Oukitel Titan.
Generally speaking, I don’t like buying a more niche product with limited support. And maybe the apps don’t work well. All of the mid, cheaper phones have bad batteries that don’t last very long, in no small part because I watch lots of videos & things that eat the battery.
The Oukitel Titan is impressive, a little obnoxiously big & slightly buggy, but not having to plug it in every blessed night makes up for any gripes I’ve got. It will make for a great Android to do Android stuff when I buy the iPhone 17.
Now that’s pathetic. Whatever happened to apple? What was even the latest cool thing they did? Seems almost irrelevant now
The latest cool things they have done: they’ve stopped being whiny little bitches & made their iPhones USB-C, with pressure from the EU. They’ve finally adopted Google’s RCS messaging protocol, which should allow Apples & Androids to play nicely together in texting.
Both of these things were massively overdue; they were being arrogant & childish for years…
Last but certainly not least: iPhones 15 & up (I think) have FREE “satellite messaging”. If you’re out in bufu & you’ve got no signal, simply put your iPhone out with a clear view of the sky…and your text messages will be relayed, received via satellite. This is a safety feature, not everyone knows it’s a thing, and personally I think it’s very, very cool.
T-Mobile should also team up with Starlink so all T-Mo customers should get free satellite text messaging. Should. But modern iPhones have free emergency text messaging here & now; that’s worth more than any “Trust me, bro, it’s totally coming”.
