The world of flagships is getting very boring for those who don't take pictures

This honestly might be a very unpopular opinion, but it's something I've been thinking about for a few months now.

I personally have never used a smartphone to regularly take photos as I don't have social media and don't care to send whatever I'm looking at to friends or family. It's just not something I'm in to. But because of this, I've started to really lose interest in a lot of the high-end offerings from companies these days. I had an iPhones 11 Pro Max that I sold to buy a Galaxy S20 and ...

Best & Worst Android UIs

Best:
1. Oxygen OS: From a lack of bloatware to the straightforward layout to the snappy animations, this UI is all-around excellent. Updates are typically pretty quick to roll out and most of the features work quite well. Did I mention the snappyness? The simple and quick animations really do make it feel faster than anything else out there.
2. Stock (Pixel/A1): Updates are generally among the fastest to push, there is no bloatware, and the UI is fairly responsive. There aren't as many features...

Google's hardware reliability is a nightmare that won't end - 3 RMA replacements in 18 months.

Hey r/Android

*This post is out of sadness not anger. Likewise none of my interactions towards Google have been anything short of smiley and friendly*.

I've been a Google fanboy for as long as I can remember. I started my android journey with an HTC Dream running Donut and since then I've had countless devices.

I've dealt with the Android development journey (I still remember the days of my music shutting off on bluetooth when the screen was off). But for all of the teething problems wi...

The best deal in Android are used LG phones. Flagship specs at budget to midrange prices.

Shared this in a comment in another post but thought I'd post it here as well since I'm not sure how many people are aware. If you're looking for a cheap phone with great specs, used LG phones are absolutely the way to go. They are ridiculously cheap compared to what you get.

The V35 can be found for like $150-200 with an SD 845, 1440p screen, waterproofing, headphone jack with a quad-dac, good to great battery life. The one I'm looking at right now is the V50. About $300-350 and it has an SD85...
