I got a new phone.recently...fast as hell with great battery life but I still cant type for shit on it....always correcting. 

 I am looking for a phone with a physical QWERTY keyboard.....like I had years ago. It slid from under the screen. I would pay big bucks for a phone like that if still available.

They had those old cheap ass slide phones with the keyboard on display last time I was at Verizon like $35 bucks. I laughed and asked the sales guy if anyone actually buys these still he said seniors and parents for young kids.

I just picked up my first Google phone last week, 7 pro. It is good so far. A few weird things it has done like on first start up they keyboard wouldn't appear so I had to restart it and that fixed it. The biggest thing I don't like is that you cannot double tap the screen to turn off the screen/lock phone. 

I don't feel like giving Tim Cook a blood sacrifice to join the apple cult lol.

Buddy says he wishes he could get a phone with Samsung's hardware and Google's software.

I went from a Pixel to iPhone 13 Pro this summer.  I give a slight edge to the Android OS and a slight edge to the iPhone hardware.  I will probably go back to Android after this one.

A buddy of mine just got a new phone. I was shocked when he showed me his new phone and it was an old school flip phone. I didn't know that they still make them  :lol:

I haven't had any issues with Android phones since switching to Google phones a few years ago.

Same.  Liked the 7 Pro enough got one for her and both boys 6a's, but $299 and $200 in Google store credit makes them cheap.  Have more $100 store credit vouchers if anyone wants to buy a pixel.

Was on an iPhone XS for 4 years and it was pretty much done. Battery shot and pretty slow etc. We all got iPhone 13s on sale last week for really cheap. Just set it up and what a nice device. Smooth and fast and intuitive. Basically just making everything about the iPhone experience much better. Really happy with it. Thanks Apple phone

Shouldn't you be thanking the 20,000 Chinese slaves that made your magic phone?
