hi I am posting this question here because despite your "jokes" and "put downs," you guys are the most knowledgeable tech people on the internet, except for maybe all of reddit, which is superior in every way to you all. I need to upgrade my broken rear end Galaxy S8 and I've been with Samsung for like over half a decade and have grown to loathe their software and dumb UI. Is the OnePlus 7 any better or is it still dumb and bloated and crud poo poo that breaks when you try to use it or ejaculate into it. i need a phone I can receive calls from my debt collectors at 11:30 PM. also

Get an iPhone, barring that get a Pixel (or whatever they're calling Nexus now?) but just get a goddamn iPhone. Please do not get an Sarnsung.

there are no good phones, op. hth. if you don't really care about security too much one of the ones with android one is probably the best. otherwise get a iphone but know that ios is extremely bad

Lowtax posted:What do you mean by loving around with it? I just use it to get text messages from my wife saying she's mad at me, and sometimes play a game where you shoot spaceships. I don't know if the cost to upgrade to an iPhone (whatever model) justifies what I would gain from it. There is the horrible UI you already mentioned, plus iphone's last a lot longer because apple actually updates them. Better hardware reliability, preformance and much better software. Plus apple isn't an advertising company (mostly).

ars technica loved the one plus https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/05/oneplus-7-pro-review-the-fastest-best-designed-best-value-android-phone/ but for real, get an iphone Lowtax posted:My wife has been using iPhones since a zillion years ago and she complains they start making GBS threads out after a year or so, when the updates start making them slow. apple isn't as good as people say but this isn't really a thing, there's something else going on (throttling because of a dead battery, some system corruption that can be fixed by an erase and restore, etc)

Actually I've been reading the reviews of the Pixel 3A, and they don't seem nearly as positive as the OnePlus7 Pro

Lowtax posted:Yeah but she says it happens to her every year, a little bit after the newest model has been released. doing this is not in apple's interest and is a bizarre conspiracy theory many people also manually quit their apps to save battery life but it actually makes your battery life worse, many people are bad at understanding technology

I don’t have any complaints about my SEs performance and it’s been years, it’ll be fine for me until it stops getting updates

just get a dumb phone, op. you'll learn how to reconnect with humanity and yourself. if you don't always have a fondleslab capable of providing instant gratification , you will have to interact with people and experience boredom again. this will make you more creative, less stressed, and more mindful of your surroundings

For your use case, a Pixel 3A is a good solid phone with stock Android(so none of the goofy Samsung crap), and it is pretty cheap. The Pixel 3A isn't reviewed as well as the One Plus because it has ***bezels*** and that is a cardinal sin to most tech nerds nowdays.

okay gently caress Samsung, I will not buy their poo poo because I'm personally tired of it and you all have confirmed that it's garbage. But to all the people recommending the Pixel, what does that have over the OnePlus 7 Pro? I'd obviously like to go with a stock Google build and get their updates quicker, but I don't know what makes it better than the OnePlus 7 Pro. i dress myself sometimes
