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.
I miss my LG Alias 2
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.
I’ve generally enjoyed the iphone line the most. Idk if the iphone 4 was actually the best or if I just have a lot of nostalgia for it, but either way I’d say the iphone 4
Best phone I ever had was an LG G7. It was dope.
I’ve been a fan of the Pixels. I’m on a 7 now, no complaints.
iPhone 15 Pro and Pixel 6 for work. They’re both fine. Does phone things. Wish the battery life on the iPhone were better though.
I once played around with a fair phone. It felt like the best phone I ever played with.
I had an old Motorola that had Android, replaceable battery, and audio connection. It does after 4-5 years when the power button stopped working and they stopped updating the phone after the first couple of months.
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
On an iphone 13 mini because it’s just about the last reasonably-sized smartphone left even though ios has tons of little quirks that annoy me. Favorite was probably the OG Pixel I had until like 2020 when it finally died, RIP
Using a mid budget Redmi Note 10 pro, nothing exceptional, it works pretty good with a nice screen. My favorite was the Nexus 5.
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.
Samsung Galaxy A13 5G. It’s fine.
Currently using a Moto G Stylus 2020, this thing has never had major updates pushed, and the last security one was a while ago, it’s pretty decent but has gotten much slower over time and is probably near the end of its life.
The best phone I had was an iphone 7, it was originally terrible, but the it was iOS 12? (13?) that came out and it was so much better. Like you would have major performance issues with this thing before the update, Apple was probably at their peak around then. I stopped using it because it was vendor locked to Sprint, and sprint stopped existing in my area when T Mobile bought them out
Pixel 7 pro here. They’re overpriced at release but if you’re willing to buy last year’s model they’re pretty good.
Sony Xperia 5 V
Great camera, small size, excellent battery life, removable storage, IP rated, and has a headphone jack. The only thing it is missing is a removable battery.
This is ny daily driver as well. Just wish Sony would update the phone for longer
Yeah, I actually bought mine just before the VI models were available for purchase when I found out at 5 VI was not going to be produced. Its a big hole in the segment imo.
