Yea. I'm not an ecosystem guy. The only thing that comes close to me having an ecosystem is having an S22 Ultra & the Watch 4 Classic, which I don't wear everyday.

My 14 Pro Max has been a nice introduction to iOS, & one that also lets me know that I can't solely use an iPhone like I could an Android.

I can't think of anything I have needed to do that would require an Android phone.

Most of the phones I owned were samsung and although the photo qualities are good it doesn't capture accurate colors sometimes in photos. So for stuff like online shopping or things were color accuracy is paramount I don't think samsung is the best choice.

It would be different if when looking at a Laker shirt on my phone it looks yellow on my device, but when it arrives it's a burnt orange, but that is not nor has it ever been the case; so your comment is inaccurate. See the example below:

Oh man don't remind me. A few years ago we went to a Dolphins game and at the time I had a Note 9 and my wife was on her iPhone 8 Plus. The Fins were in their aqua throwbacks but the wifey's iPhone made them look like the San Diego Chargers. Ryan Tannehill looked like Phillip Rivers in that 17.

Brand agnostic here. i'll just buy the cheapest phone I can with the best camera quality. This either means the Pixel A series, or i'll get a used previous year flagship from Samsung or other manufacturer.

Nokia N8 -> HTC One M8 -> OnePlus 5t -> Samsung S10+

Still with my S10+

The last flagship with a headphone jack and memory card expansion

There's the Sony Xperia 1 series, but that's the last of its kind now, unfortunately.

LOL. Yea, those jerseys aren't even remotely close. If I were watching both teams in their home uniforms on a big back tube TV I'd still be able to tell the Chargers & Fins apart.

On a different *ahem* note, I need to visit Miami one day. So much scenery for some amazing pics!

I feel the same way about the iPhone. It's cool having both, but if I had to go back to only having an Android phone I'd be okay. But since I have the ability to have both, I'm going to take advantage.

I've been using my OnePlus 8 5g since it came out.

Never an issue. Among all of the phones that I've owned, this is my favorite in terms of being a work horse. The camera is awful but it's not on my top three of uses.


I just purchased the OnePlus 11 and hope that it lives up to the 8 5g.

Don't you find OneUI a bit sluggish, though? I've always thought this is the one big drawback with Samsung phones...

No I don't. In fact I find just the opposite. Maybe I just have an exceptional S23U but the interface is snappy and buttery smooth and the fingerprint scanner works first time every time (unless my fingers are wet which then might take a couple of tries...which is very rare). No phone brand is perfect but Samsung, in my humble opinion, is an excellent mobile phone producer.

You gotta try a flagship Vivo or Iqoo. You've already given Oppo and Xiaomi a fair and worthwhile shot so.... Just do it.

Iqoo no way !

Vivo I would. I'm looking forward to Vivo X Note 2, hope it will come

X90 pro+ I like the design on red, but I would go with Find X6 Pro if I was to chose a phone like this (better overall camera experience on Oppo)
