I fucking hate the state of tech in 2026. My first smartphone was a Galaxy Nexus and I upgraded from that to an iPhone 6s. The iPhone 17 is still decent (obvious downgrade from the 6s though in terms of software) but the Pixel just feels like I'm using Linux back when you had to fick with your display manager all the time and reference the Arch wiki to fix your Ubuntu installation
Literally why would anyone without my use case (software testing, backup device) buy this shit? I don't hate Indians but I certainly feel like one when I use a Google Pixel.

It's nothing like that. At least loonix does what you want it to do after you pay the RTFM tax. It sucks ass, but at least works somehow. Many things on Android literally do not work at all if installing shady indian shitware is not an option for you.
Real solution is to own multiple cheap devices. For work/business get used iphone, use only the basic features, do not personalize anything. For personal stuff (no banking or shopping there) get some xiaomi and install whatever the fuck you want, make sure that in worst case le haxor would only get useless data that he cannot monetize. Fragmentation like this solves a lot of problems. But obviously introduces inconvinience of it's own, plus you will now own all newest most expensive ones, unless you have money to burn.
>>
>>109207881
>Real solution is to own multiple cheap devices
Yes, this is my current philosophy--not that these shitter normienet c&c portals are truly "cheap". My idea for the Pixel is that once I'm done fucking around with it for my current purposes, I'll put Graphene on it. You are describing compartmentalization rather than fragmentation

Daily reminder that Apple is the reason we lost the headphone jack, physical SIM, SD cards and removable barriers. Phones have become nothing else but surveillance tech.

Just don't use a Samsung phone.

If you did make the mistake and buy a Samsung phone, you will lose certain features without a Samsung or Google account, such as locating a lost device among others.

Pretty sure you can't download things from the Samsung Store without an account, so no Good Lock (Samsung hides tons of their bloat I mean features in this stupidly named app, along with several other Samsung apps which also have stupid names like "Home Up").

Im looking into lost device apps.
I can live without the bloatware, i only have an A series so it doesn't have Good Lock or Home Up, whatever they are.
Basically just going to use it to make calls, listen to music and surf web.I need to make it so if i lose the phone it doesnt matter and I wont lose anything important.

For low/mid range, Pixel 9a or 10a. You can get more ROMs currently for the 9a, including /e/OS, LineageOS, and GrapheneOS. You can only currently get GrapheneOS on the 10a iirc, but Lineage and /e/OS are anticipated, and it will be Officially Supported™ for an additional year over the 9a which matters not for Lineage or /e/OS, but GrapheneOS support timeframes depend on if Google is continuing to support the device.

I am upgrading to an s26 ultra 256gb with the 12gb ram from an s23. Am I going to be disappointed or not? I've never had a flagship model before, always had the bade version cause I assumed it was just the camera. What can I use my old phone for? I'd like to stream again so maybe use this on a tripod set up in my bedroom?

Held off on upgrading my Flip 5 for a while and now that the Fold 8 has a smaller option coming out wondering if I should go with the smaller form factor or the Ultra. I know the leaks so far seem to show that the difference with the cameras is that the wider one loses the telephoto but the price points are effectively near identical. If I don't really tend to take pictures with my phone beyond family events or of my dumb cat should I just go with the form factor?
>>
>>109217541
I disagree. I summoned the car I am sitting in that's taking me to the bus terminal using my phone. Things like that remove a lot of the friction from life. Most of the people in this thread don't have shit to do so they go on about this feature that feature but the important stuff is solved. Calls and messages are only one part of modern life. This device in my hand is also a serviceable audio player and now that I'm on the bus I'm going to drown out the sounds that surround me using it.

Telephoto lenses are VERY important. Ofc, 100x AI "zoom" is a meme, but 3-10x optical zoom is something I prefer to not live without. But you're already used to only having wide and ultrawide cameras on the Flip 5 so maybe you won't notice?

The main thing with the telephoto lens is that you don't have to get up close to the subject to get a decent photo. Useful for wildlife, if you have kids, for concerts... again any time where it might be impractical, impossible, or unsafe to get right up and personal with your subject.
>>
>>109220268
Is it damaged in some way? That seems rather low for a 1TB version, even if the phone is slightly over a year old. Beware of something that is too good to be true, but basic things you can do is:
>verify you can do a quick setup with no locks from a Samsung or Google account
>make sure your SIM gets service
Of course, they could screw you over by claiming it stolen afterwards, there is a blacklist of stolen phones that will no longer work with any carrier. This is unlikely and I've never had it happen despite buying and trading used phones a fair bit, but it is possible.

Yeah normally I don't really care for the camera quality much given I don't take pictures often but the rumored prices makes me even question why I should get the smaller Fold if it's carrying Flip Cameras instead of flagship cameras like the Fold7 and the upcoming Ultra.
>>
>>109223281
Yeah quality will be ok but if you ever want to zoom in past 2x you'll definitely want a telephoto lens.

The Fold 8 Jr kinda seems like a Flip 8 just sideways. The form factor is interesting, but yeah the cameras would be a downgrade from your typical flagship.
>>
>>109223463
Yeah that's what I figured it would be and I have no issue but if the price difference between the Wide and Ultra is $100-200 then Samsung is playing a stupid game with the pricing

I buy all my smartphones unlocked WITH CASH and you can't get a red magic 11 pro or a OnePlus 15 for free on contract here in the USA or Europe. You would know this if you lived in America or Europe. Anyways even kids in high school here in America buy brand new flagships and brand new cars. I could not even begin to imagine living in a place where your income bracket is beneath teens flipping burgers like SpongeBob.

>>109227749
contract phones are never free
>>
>>109227770
Incorrect you obviously are just posting your false opinions as usual and you don't live in the USA or Europe. They are free and they exist, but they require a trade in and eligible plan. Just because you live in a country that doesn't offer these promotions it doesn't mean the same rule applies for everywhere else; you do know that's how the world works right?
>>
>I have money, so I spent all of it on multiple devices that do the exact same thing
Retard logic.

You can't even use a custom ROM on any of these phones you keep bragging about as if it is some sort of achievement to (allegedly) own more than one smartphone....again, why? You can't do anything interesting with the ones you bought.

It's like being proud of owning multiple Chromebooks or iPads when a person can't use more than one at a time, clearly signaling that this individual doesn't know the value of a dollar. Daddy's money?

>it's free! you just have to subscribe to the most expensive plan

My OnePlus 15 has a unlocked bootloader, you have no idea what you're talking about. The red magic 11 pro already has the option to install a rom, but the makers are asking money for it so people are boycotting it. I can install zeniOS on my iPhone as well and emulate PC games. If you're going to post on a technology board full of enthusiasts make sure you know what you're talking about pal. Imagine trying to tell me about the phones that I own like they're in your hand or something and you've actually done the stuff that I do with them. Kek!
>>
>>109227901
Keep justifying wasting money. Omg my Red magic has a fan!!! My Samsung has OneUI! My iPhone has iOS!

They all do the same shit, same locked down bootloaders. A Pixel 3a would ironically be more interesting than your choice of crappy flagships.

>delusional gloating
>>
>>109228052
Pixels are overpriced and they have the weakest SOC for a so-called flagship. You already lost the argument right then and there.
>>
>>109228115
Yeah but a 3a can run real Linux OS (Ubuntu Touch), an Xperia 10 IV can run Sailfish.

You bought three sedans for no reason other than to waste money. You could have got something with actual utility for those $2000+ wasted dollars.
>>
>>109228336
I can run Kali Linux on all of them. You’re purposely nitpicking, trying your best to come out as someone who’s intelligent, but you just aren't that guy pal. this is a tech enthusiast board. You are not winning by trying to insult someone for having multiple gadgets that makes no sense. The reality of the situation is you’re just salty and seething from your one VERY OLD smartphone.
>>
>>109228052
I know that you have trouble with reading comprehension, but this will be the second time I’m letting you know that you are 100% incorrect, the OnePlus 15 has an unlocked bootloader. Posting misinformation isn’t how you win tech arguments and discussions, just an FYI if they haven’t taught you this where you come from.
>>
>>109228415
Enjoy your no ROMs
Stop posting a bunch of replies to the same post you fag. Sum it up in one post. No one believes you are dozens of different people.
>>
>>109228393
Yes you can remove iOS and install script kiddy Kali Linux on an iPhone. Oh wait, you can't.

Moving the goalposts: denied.
>>
>>109228437
>>109228445
oh, you don’t even know that you can access your iPhone with Kali? I thought you were an expert? oh right, silly me, how would you ever know about smartphones that you don’t own?
>>
>>109225879
Lmaooooooo getting rekt by ai top Kek!
>>
>>109228457
??? What does being able to access your phone with a Linux distro have to do with RUNNING ALTERNATIVE OPERATING SYSTEMS ON YOUR PHONE?

Show me the iPhone running a non-Apple OS. You can't. You're locked into the walled garden. Your other phones probably both run the stock OS, boring. Like buying three cars but they're all exactly the same.
>>
>>109228477
just take the L, little kid. I’m not wasting time explaining things and correcting impoverished kids. imagine stressing as hard as you are when your phone doesn’t even cost $100.
>>
