What phone are you using? Motorola Edge
Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities? I love it! None of the Motorala apps are aggressively integrated and launching by themselves, and they are actually useful.
I am not sold on curved screen. I use a case so I don't really benefit from it. Some apps extend inro the curve and get awkward to use.
Just a clean Android experience.
Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot? Before I was using Samsungs. The earlier ones were solid but they eventually become unusably bloated and hostile with their own apps. It advertised to me the way Microsoft Windows does, which I hate.
Had some iPhones. Nothing to complain about. It used to feel limited compared to the tweakability of Android, but I am not much of a power user. Plus, I actually buy stuff from the iOS App store, the quality is better, and I trust Apple infinitely more than Google.
Best phone I ever had was a Blackberry. I adored that thing. I miss physical Qwerty keyboards. I would give up my large high rese screen to get that back.
Blackberries were as tweakable as Androids too!
How often do you upgrade to a new phone? I try to keep my phone as long as possible. Phone technology is not progressing like it used to, it is all slabs of metal, glass, and plastic. I don't take a lot of pictures, so the camera is not a concern.
What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc. Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite. Felt it was the most economical option for a good Android tablet at the time. I like it. It has Dex which I only used once... gonna try it out again.
Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.) Got a few Apple iPads, the best being the iPad Pro. The big screen is gorgeous and nothing beats reading PDFs on it, especially text books. I also bought like every synth on the App Store, which is still a FRACTION of the price for a single analog synth, even a cheapo Behringer clone.
Agree! I use to love learning how to sideload and customize on my Blackberries.
Blackberry really had a chance to survive, not EVERYONE wanted an iPhone and Google was beginning to get suspicious by the time Android launched.
It sucks when good technology dies.
