What mobile phone do you have?
Jump to: Newest in thread
A Amazon special. It's called a Poco ....think it's a sub brand of a sub brand.
Looking at a reconditioned Google pixel soon and I've had this for nearly three years and it's starting to have charging issues. But for the price, it's been flawless. |

I used to have fairphone. Which was set up by a dutch company as a ethical alternative to the others. Worker owned cooperatives in the manufacturing chain (instead of child labour) and recycled parts etc.
I have a one plus phone..but I'd like a fairphone again. |

Has to be the Google Pixel which runs on stock Android with no bloatware that you get with Samsung. The Pixel 9 is due in Q3 and going by the leaks it looks like a cracking phone with the new Tensor G4 chip.
This may will be my next phone.

My ShagFone is a mid range Motorola - can't remember the model but it's got a huge screen and does all my shaggy stuff well.
My normal phone is Pixel 6 which is fantastic in the Android ecosystem and takes amazing pictures and videos. |

I’m still using an SE as I just prefer a small phone…bought my daughter a new 13 pro or whatever it was the same time we were in the shop upgrading my laptop (she gets my hand me down MacBook Pro’s) can’t really understand the getting a new phone every year! |

"Samsung flip because I miss flip phones from back in the day
Mrs "
If I do miss any phone and I think it was the last phone I had before Apple made the first modern phone it was a Sony Ericsson flip phone…genuinely amazing! |

"Pixel 6 Pro
Been with Google since Pixel 2
Very pleased with it, thiugh need to upgrade soon...mostly it only charges wirelessly now"
1 of the things I looked at before buying my Pixel, was the cost of a new battery, should I need it. (My old phone died and it was extortionate). I was impressed, as I am with the Pixels |

My trusty Huawei 5 years old and still working perfectly without a shadow of a doubt the best phone I have ever owned.
This is my third one and frankly if I could get another I would in a heartbeat. |

I always have had a Sony Experria which I loved. Unfortunately I broke it so now have an IPhone 13 which was given to me by my lovely ex wife.
I hate the bloody thing but it was free and it would cost £350 to pay of my contract . |

I've been researching the pixel today and was ready to pull the pin and buy one, until I spotted that it doesn't take and SD card. Even with 256gb, I'd need more storage with all the pictures I keep (even given that I moved them off every 3 months). Gutted, as it looked ideal! |

All my pics are backed up on Google. I've gone for Google 1 which is about £50 a year, gives me 200gb which is enough for he and my family. Hopefully no chance of them getting deleted or lost either. |

You should try Ubuntu cloud, secure versatile and above all free.  |

Do phones have SD card slots these days?. I back up my files and pics etc to the cloud. |

Yeah. I avoid flagship phones and stick to the mid range one. I don't think there is a huge difference in spec. |

I carry one like that with me all the time. Stays charged for weeks on its original battery. Blue and white Nokia. It also has the loudest alarm clock ever!
I use it for all my medical reminders. Foolproof.
I usually carry up to three smarter phones with me, the busiest of which I don't use for anything smarter than phone calls and texts.
I get pissed off with people who constantly want to move to other net based platforms. Some now state that they never look at texts any more.
Why discard a reliable system which works with simple equipment.
