My phone’s just bitten the dust and now I need to look for a new one again.
Thought I’d test the waters and see what kinds of phones people on here are using nowadays and what for, what features set them apart if any etc
Bonus points if anyone’s managed to get mainline linux running on them either via KVM or bare metal
Edit: Thanks for everyone who talked about their choices of phone, I am now writing this on a fairphone 4 and am quite happy with it so far.
How do you like the phone? We have 5 of them for work and they seem pretty decent. Sadly I couldn’t figure out how to root them before putting them into production.
It’s pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I used to buy flagship phones but figured I didn’t really need all that just to browse the internet on the toilet. But I also wanted something that wasn’t so low powered that it lagged during regular operation like a lower cost LG I had purchased before. So far it’s fulfilling that purpose very well.
I have the OnePlus 10 Pro and its a good phone in many ways, but it is locked down tight. They’ve come a long way away from where they started with the OnePlus One.
I’ll keep it till it breaks and then I’ll have to consider what to get next.
