I went through my late teens as the initial smart phone boom was happening. I had a Motorola q that could get TV channels and had a keyboard. I had the enV that flipped open. And many androids/blackberries that I loved for their unique form factor and functionality.
I have never balked at spending money on a phone and for a long time i felt locked into generic flagship devices. With the debut of folding screens I feel like my appetite for unique devices rekindled. I think the power of android lies in its diversity of implementation.
So what features and functionalities would you choose over the next flagship release?
Headphone jack. I’ve used multiple LG phones before, currently using the LG V60 and seems like Sony is the only way to go in the future, unfortunately.
Yeah I would like to support Sony but boy they make it hard with the MSRP. It always buy a used one but at that point I’d still be better off just buying with or sticking with an LG device since the v60 still has Android 13.
Asus has the headphone jack still, if they were to bring back SD card support and at least offer 3 or 4 years of security updates that’s probably the direction I would go. Also the only company still offering a flagship phone under 5.10 in or even under 6.1 in
