Just started here on lemmy, taking a look around and what’s here. I don’t see this area is used - at least recently. However, I do love Google Pixel. I have both a 7 Pro (Stock OS) and 7a with GraphineOS.

The main thing that got me to switch to Pixel from an iPhone 13 Pro Max was the hardware and software like 12GB ram on 7 Pro, the processor for mobile gaming, the call screening on all pixel devices, call hold etc. Super useful!

    The EU did pass a bill that will make all phones sold in the EU required to have a user serviceable, no tools required method of battery replacement by 2027. Hopefully, this would provide more options elsewhere too.

    If you don’t mind me asking, why is the removable battery so important? I do believe devices should be user serviceable (maybe frame.work will make a phone one day).

      I’m assuming it’s because as soon as the battery begins failing, you can just replaced it yourself without needing to take your phone to some store and pay extra money for the service.

      Given that there was a time most phones has replaceable batteries, the above is a waste of time and money.

      Some stores even ask you for your unlock code to perform some testings. Hell no.
