I love smartphones. Especially brand new flagships. You own a brand new smartphone anon? You wouldn't be obsessed with this general and own 1 antiquated device, right?

GF wants to move away from iPhones (currently using iPhone 13)
What would be some decent options if she doesn't want anything too fancy and just doesn't want to feel like it's a hardware downgrade from the iPhone.
I kinda underestimated how fucked the market is over here in Canada
Budget is 400-500 CAD

>>
>>108854223
Pixel 10A, you can get 170 CAD off if you trade in the iphone 13 to bring it to 509. Just dont game on it and it’ll be alright. Other options are all chinkshit or a57 from samsung. Tbqh all of these are sidegrades at best if you’re willing to buy used maybe you can find something better but i wouldn’t buy something used for my gf.

2 year old flagship in mint condition is exponentially better than any mid tier trash phones
just dont buy from small sellers, make sure it's an ebay store with minimum 99% and thousands of sales

I agree with the above, but if you really love your gf go for the regular 10 (or 10 Pro if you want to marry her) not 10a, the telephoto lens is SO KEY in any phone. The regular 9 doesn't have it, but they added it into the 10, but 10a just has a normal (wide) and wide (ultrawide) like her iPhone 13. But a zoom lens is very useful.
>>
>>108854448
Do you want Gemini Mini (the local model?) the 9 Pro XL will be supported longer due to 16 vs "only" 12GB of RAM on the 8 Pro.

If you're going neoluddite and planning on flashing GrapheneOS it depends if a one year newer chip with a bit better thermals and performance - not too of the line, but better and one more year of official support is worth $200 to you.

I dont know what gemini mini will do. I already run my own local model now though... 16 is nice but Really necessary over 12?

I had a question if somebody could help me. A while back a delivery driver came to my house to help pick something up. He was waiting for the delivery he got there early. He asked if I could charge his phone for him. It looked like an iPhone 13 Pro Max. I took it inside and took it to my room. While I was holding it it kept taking photos like the camera shutter sound went off and I don't remember if the flash went off too. It did this a few times. Feels sus. Was it just the FaceID picking up my face not recognising me as the owner and taking a photo as like an anti-theft protocol.
>>
>>108856701
Why the fuck would you ever touch a jeet’s phone let alone charge it? Also thats not what happens when FaceID messes up you are probably going to become a victim of identity theft.
>>
>>108856711
His battery was red. But yeah it's sus as fuck. Can anybody else chime in. This happened maybe 8 months ago.
>>
>>108856711
Looks like it was something like this

These jeets live in share houses with 5 other jeets and maybe he was afraid his phone might get stolen

How do people unironically use android? Default google images are spyware, and hardened forks are banned from all financial apps because they decided phones without the google stamp of approval are pwned. You can't even use nfc.
If you don't need these features, why even use a phone? Your entire workflow can be done on a desktop.
If you do need these features, it's between google spyware and apple spyware. I'll take apple.

Pixel 10(A) does seem like a good fit, might try gathering the money for that
I did include the money from selling the iPhone in the budget though so it's a little rough
>>108854349
eBay isn't used much in Canada as far as I can tell, though there are a few S24's between 400-500 and some pixel 9's around 500 that I can find so that could be an option too, thanks

Good hardware but shit software: Samsung
Merely decent hardware but great software: Pixel

Note: the 10 Pro is significantly smaller than the Ultra, the Pro XL is a similar size though.

If you plan on mostly playing Mihoyo games or Wuthering Waves, maybe the Samsung makes sense if you can stomach OneUI. But for the camera, software (particularly flexibility in unlocking the bootloader and flashing Graphene or Lineage or other ROMs), and everyday use the Pixel wins, and I've had both the S25U and was so disgusted by OneUI I swapped to an iPhone Air before eventually switching to the Pixel 10 Pro after getting annoyed at the limitations of iOS.

Note: Verizon Pixels cannot be bootloader unlocked, so should be avoided.

You don't have to use any of those.

Android's Doze was implemented, it's not 2014 anymore. Now we have Adaptive Battery and stricter enforcement since Android 10.

If anything, the problem is with most Chinese OEMs and Samsung killing background apps.
