So I had the galaxy S4… Up and away… I have used Galaxy S everything, iPhone Pro fuck the Max and I’m going to say as a U.S. buyer, they fucked 90+% of people. If you are calling, texting, emailing, playing 99% of games. I have a Pixel 9 Pro sitting on a shelf, that I don’t find reason to use. I use a phone that was $70 when I bought it, And it’s like 120 max now. I work in IT and have since 2011… most people are buying $800+ phones for no reason. Let’s get people in the practice of realizing a $200 phone, does everything a $1200 dollar phone does. Why pay 6x more for shit you honestly don’t need. Are my 50mp camera photos good, yeah. Are they as good as the latest flagship, no. But why should most users care. The memories is what most care about, not the pixels that show someone’s cheek had a mark on it with higher definition. It’s stupidity. We could save our families near $1000 a year by telling them it is ridiculous. Why because they buy a $1000 phone… every couple years… Why? $120 can do it the same. Prove me wrong. Save them 1050+ a year … With a phone that does everything they want

Still using pixel 6. When they stole my battery with their bullshit, I went and got a open hardware tablet running a Rockchip processor with Arm Arch and a full datasheet. If open hardware exists whenever the criminals quit security updates for this orphan kernel exploit, I will gladly buy it. I don’t care who makes it or what the specs are. If it has basic functionality, I’m fine with that. Mainline kernel support with fully documented hardware is god. I don’t care if it is two or three times more expensive. If there are no strings attached, and I can own it for life, I will buy it. Funding this criminal world is what I hate more than anything else.
