What phone do you own?

Haswell · Tuesday at 11:36 PM

I sold my Pixel 6a recently and used the money to buy a cheap $150 Motorola. Of course, when I got it the software it had was total dogshit. But I spent a couple hours fixing it, and now it's a lot better.

Phone features:

720p LCD (who needs 1080p on a phone? it saves battery too)
FM radio tuner
Headphone jack + SD slot
Motorola's bootloader unlock policy is good, so I may put a GSI (generic system image) of stock Android/AOSP on it
5,000 mAh battery
6nm TSMC MediaTek CPU

I nuked all of the bloated software, set the screen brightness to 5%, and disabled 5G and now I get two days of battery life out of it. Here's what my homescreen looks like.

Phones are ass. Sell it and get a 'dumb'phone, you'll thank me. I guess I've had a libre AOSP GSI on my samsung but I gave it to my little brother to play games and don't want to ever touch one again myself.

Samsung S24 Ultra, running One UI 8 or whatever it is. I'm definitely more of a PC guy, but I do like having a good phone with decent storage (mine is 512gb) and plenty of data, since I'm away from home often.
I usually just play games like Pokemon Go and a few others on my phone. Don't really use it for much other than that and watching videos + keeping up-to-date with loved ones via messaging and social media. (Though, I don't use social media anymore - mostly stick to Discord, which I guess counts? Not sure.)
Oh, and I also listen to music on my phone. Have a tonne of music downloaded. Mostly from Spotify and YouTube Music, though. I do have a fair few MP3s and that one Nintendo Music app (which is surprisingly good) that comes with your NSO subscription.
It's a good little phone. I don't see myself updating it for quite a while.

I don't own any since I can't even afford a low-end Android phone in the first place.
