Just bought a Galaxy s20+ ultra refurbished a couple of months ago. Only cost like 300 and had comparable specs to the current $1500 phones.
Wife has to have apple and I couldn't bring myself to buy her refurbished for her birthday... bit the bullet and got an iPhone that was 1 or 2 generations old, still cost like 800-900.
A Librem 5. It's exactly what i want, a small desktop PC with modem in it.
I really like the looks of those TCL NXTpaper phones. They use a matte color eink display that looks amazing.
I'm a Pixel fan. Between the whole family, I think we have almost every generation.
Pixel 8 sounds like what you're looking for.
Blackberry Key2 because nothing beats a hardware keyboard. Tried it but cant life without one.
Recently got myself a Pixel 7a and it's been a great experience.
Pixel 4, probably gonna be on this phone for a while.
a Pixel 3 they're basically the Google equivalent to the iPhone I did some work merging code for my Fire tablet's Android kernel, and when I saw how much development Google put into Android, I figured Pixels would probably have the best drivers thing is kinda old, but it works great for my purposes no SD card slot though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but it came bundled with a few USB adapters, a wireless charger, and some headphones.
My Pixel 6 Pro got smashed up in a bike crash, so I recently replaced it with a Pixel 7a.
I don't know if anyone's run desktop Linux on them, but I'd guess if there's any phone where that's been done, it'd be a Pixel. They make it easy to run other Android ROMs, and the Pixels are probably the most popular phones amongst the type of people who would like to attempt that as a result. (Personally, I stick with Google's Android.)
iPhone 13 Pro. Probably going to upgrade to a 16 Pro this fall.
I'm on a OnePlus 5. Had it for a few years now and love it. Best phone I ever had.
I've had a few. The OnePlus line has been, IIRC, notable for charging quickly relative to competitors, though I don't know whether things have evened out since then.
Second the OnePlus 5! I moved to the OnePlus 10 Pro for security updates and it's great. Battery life is worse though, I hear the 12 isn't as bad in that respect. Still have the fastest charging on the market though!
Currently on a 12 I got 6(?) Months ago. It's been pretty fantastic on the battery front. 2 long trips and I never worried about it dying because I only needed to charge it every other day or so even with doing things like playing Monster Hunter Now.
They're all pretty much the same, unless you're looking for specific use cases, e.g. camera, outdoors ruggedness, gaming, specific OS build, etc. I stopped getting flagships once I realized my old ones battery started to swell like a cheaper phone. I'm on Android, so I get to replace any app with the one of my choice - I'm particular about data submissions to home and sneaky stuff like autotagging. Now all I look for is a recent android build (for app compatibility), decent camera hardware (I'll replace the app), IP68 and a good price.
Samsung ultras series with a pen. The pen feeling is real-time. Also pretty robust little thing. I’ve had it a few years and I love this phone.
I also still have an lg g4 that still works. I keep it as a backup emergency given that it still works and has a replaceable battery.
