June 8, 20223 yr I currently have an iPhone SE2020 (yeah, I'm cheap) but looking to upgrade, possibly even going Android (google pixle or whatever it's called). I just don't want to spend over a grand on an iPhone. Fuck Apple. Well, not quite fuck them, but if the underdog has a good alternative I'll go for that.

That's what I have and I love it.

June 9, 20223 yr One of the 'a' model Pixels. 6a is coming out soon. 5a is a solid phone too from what I read, but is no frills and already a year old. I have the 4a.
June 9, 20223 yr Pixel's had a borked update which screwed up the camera and made everything laggy as shit. It should have been resolved by now. If you are imbedded in the Apple system, then stay with Apple. I say this and I dislike Apple. How much are you looking to spend? Edited June 9, 20223 yr by crash_davis

The 5a is basically the same under the hood as the 5, but it (5a) is larger, has a larger battery, and possibly more water resistance IIRC. I have a 5, and my wife has a 5a. Both are rock solid. I haven't experienced any screwed up camera or lag. Edited June 9, 20223 yr by dcbc
June 9, 20223 yr Yeah the only software issues I've had with mine are the gestures screw up when trying to close apps sometimes. It's only certain apps and not really sure when it started.
July 16, 20223 yr I hate my phone, and my last phone too! 100% of my "smart phones" have been Motorola's running Android. Is my hate toward Motorola or Android?

July 16, 20223 yr Likely Motorola, more likely that it's not flagship. Get a Flagship phone and be happy.
July 16, 20223 yr As someone that can't stand Macs, my iPhone is one of the best devices ever created. Used Android for a long time because iPhones were/are so damn expensive. But now that I've had one for a few years, I don't know how I ever used Android.
July 16, 20223 yr things that annoy me about my iphone: notifications system, app drawer clutter, imessage's spam handling and lack of archive function, swipeupfrombottomswipeupfrombottomswipeupfrombottom UI design, face unlock isn't quite as reliable as non-screen fingerprint sensors, uses a different charging cable than literally everything else i take on vacation things that annoy me about my pixel: takes forgodamnever to charge, curved screen edges, in screen fingerprint sensor isn't as reliable as the old back of phone sensor (and doesn't support gestures), it's too damn big.
July 17, 20223 yr Verizon was just giving $800 credit for trade ins. Three of us all got new iPhone 13s for basically free. I think the deal may be over though.
