So, I thought I’d kick things off here with some community building.

Quote this post with answers to the below!

What phone are you using?

Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities?

Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot?

How often do you upgrade to a new phone?

What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc.

Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.)

    Asus ZenFone 8.

    I love it, it’s a nice bit of kit, and the few gimmicks it has are useful: scheduled charging for better battery life, digital well being stuff to stop me being glued to my phone.

    Battery would be a problem for a super power user, but lasts me all day with commuting, reading the web etc. Camera is not on a par with flagships but I rarely take pictures.

    Prior to this I had a Huawei until the battery died on me. I upgrade when I have to, I hate consumer upgrade cycles.

    I have zero android ecosystem products.

    I’m Android/Linux all the way unless work force me to use a Mac, which happens periodically, as part of the great cycle of life.

      I’m using a Zenfone 8 also. Have you by chance had any issues using Android auto with it? Ive been trying to narrow down if it’s a phone issue, app issue, or car issue. Mine is unresponsive about 1/2 the time

      I miss my Z8. It was 1 week short of 2year mark when it died last week. I would advise to you to turn on your auto backup just in case.

      And if you use the tachiyomi app, back that up as well.
