Lowtax posted: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 i would trust google over oneplus on hardware, just for trustworthiness

we can at least be somewhat confident that the Chinese government isn't going to happily share whatever data they have on us with American LE

im also going to say "get an iphone" if you must get a phone that is not an iphone the pixel is the only thing even remotely worth considering since it wont be packed to bursting with lovely preinstalled apps that cant be removed without a phd in computer science and it will also get updates to fix critical security vulnerabilities for at least 10-15 days after you buy it unlike literally every other android phone

please note: "I don't care about security" is not a valid stance

i mean im all for an iphone but having seen a friend get the s10 husky edition i can say they are nice and samsung generally gets regular updates, but those updates are random touchwiz changes or whatever which are dumb. its a real monkey paw phone company but all the wishes are ironic
