Hey y’all, my OnePlus 8 pro is donezo, ling story short it got major damage that I just didn’t even see happen but it was on its way out regardless. Now the reason I got a OnePlus is because when I first got them, they were the pinnacle of “moddable phones” any root or rom you could think of it was basically built to be rooted. Now though from what I hear the company has decided to go in a different direction, real shame. So now that I’m back in the market for a new phone ow as wondering if y’all had any suggestions. What’s the most open source droid out there nowadays?
I have a Pixel 7a and I love it. Hardware is pretty decent and you get guaranteed security updates until 2028, and since it’s the platform on which Google’s devs first test stock Android you can be pretty confident that you could also install something like LineageOS when official Android support runs out.
I’m trying out the Pixel 7a after my Galaxy S21 died. My only major complaint is how slippery it is. I have a case coming, but damn this thing is like the hardest phone to hold I’ve ever had. I never feel like I have a grip on it. But for the money, it seems like a super nice phone. Feels very premium, and after turning animation scale to .5x in dev settings, it feels very nice.
@Mononon @AlmightySnoo 👍🏼 that’s the first thing I do on any Pixel!
I’m on a Pixel 6 Pro, and love it. I’ve found the battery life more than enough for my needs (getting a day to a day and a half per charge), and while the finger print sensor isn’t all that great, everything else more than makes up for it.
If everything I’ve heard about the P7 being the more refined P6, that would be my choice if I had to replace my phone today. Hoping that the rumours of google going to flat displays for the 8 Pro are true.
You know I was thinking about getting a pixel because I always end up installing the “pixel experience” roms,. And now that I have a pixel watch it just kind of makes sense, as long as I can completely slap different firmware on there if I so choose, then I’m happy
