Moi? I use currently a NOTE 20 ultra 5g. Probably my second best phone, I only hate the fact it’s so massive (I miss being able to use just one hand for my phone) and the mediocre battery life for someone like me that watches a lot of videos. But the S pen is so handy those few times you need it.

    Currently using a Google Pixel 8, I’ve been reading up about GrapheneOS.

    Why would an average user need to install this over the stock OS?

      To not be dependent on Google and send all your data to them.

      I know the average user doesn’t care, but they should.

    One Plus 8, it’s been more than 4 years. I refreshed it with a /e/OS install and I still love it!

    I’ve only had to replace the charging port a few days ago. It’s not too hard if you have a heat gun

      I just got the 9 Fold and I really like it so far. The fold screen has a weirdly square aspect ratio, but it’s excellent for reading.

        Yes, it’s quite excellent, but for the Honor V3. I got the Honor for my GF who doesn’t care as much about having the latest android version and latest features. Hardware wise, it’s miles ahead and makes the Fold feel very dated.

    Some motorola g30-something.

    Great value for money. I don’t care for anything extravagant when it comes to phones.

    Pixel 2 XL was my favorite phone and still works. I’m still on a Pixel 5 because of the physical fingerprint sensor

    Currently a Note 8, my favorite was the Note 4. I love big phones lol. I have fat fingers and I just really liked it. My least favorite was the iPhone. I got an iPhone 2 awhile ago and even jail breaking it wasn’t enough for me to like it. I actually had that phone until a few months ago. I was using it as an alarm clock (that’s literally all it could do), but the battery broke the screen, so 🤷🏿‍♀️

    iPhone 16 pro. Too early to tell but this might be my favorite ever.

    Previous ones I also really enjoyed were all nexus or pixels but they all inevitably shit themselves after a couple years of use. Most recent one pixel 7 just decided it was gonna drain 6% battery per hour while idling out of nowhere. And nothing I tried fixed it. And I tried a lot.

    Currently using a Moto G Stylus 2020, this thing has never had major updates pushed, and the last security one was a while ago, it’s pretty decent but has gotten much slower over time and is probably near the end of its life.

    The best phone I had was an iphone 7, it was originally terrible, but the it was iOS 12? (13?) that came out and it was so much better. Like you would have major performance issues with this thing before the update, Apple was probably at their peak around then. I stopped using it because it was vendor locked to Sprint, and sprint stopped existing in my area when T Mobile bought them out

    CAT S22 Flip as my daily driver. I also don’t really use my phone for content consumption anymore; I just need the basics + hotspot.

    “Best phone” doesn’t really exist for me in the smarphone era because they’ve all been compromises. If my OnePlus 3 had a slide out QWERTY keyboard, it would probably qualify, though.
