Your current phone, what you like about it, what you don't.

iPhone 6s, 64GB - easy to use, plenty of apps, shares contacts, mail & calendar across my iPad and PC (Google Chrome). I don’t want anything larger and, after replacing the battery for $30 in December, I’m not sufficiently impressed by new features on newer iPhones. I’ve not liked the Android and other phones some friends have. Probably because I’m 57... Also, 75% or more of family & friends have iPhones and there are a few communications and sharing conveniences that allows.

It drags a bit at times, but just a little and not often.

iPhone 8 Plus 256GB. Need to upgrade. Love the size. Hate the cell service.

I'm using an LG G7 ThinQ

PRO
Long and thin design, easy to hold
Fast phone
Tremendous audio quality
No proprietary apps
Waterproof
Nice camera

CON
Average battery life
Screen notch, though I no longer notice
Annoying placement of the Google assistant button

A restaurant server dropped a plate on my Samsung Galaxy S8, breaking the screen. I replaced the phone with this. It's not as glitzy but it does pretty much everything as well and I never have to wipe the phone over software glitches like I did the old phone. I'd do it again.

Love it because it’s so easy to use it’s almost idiot proof...which is great for me!

Why would you ever do that? Hoped it would catch on?

Are there any apps? or are you stuck w just phone and text like a flip phone?

Samsung Galaxy S9.

Pro:
Fast,
Responsive,
Tons of apps,
Beautiful screen,
Easy to use,
Great camera.
Still has a fvvcking audio jack! (+100 for this)
Most importantly its not a ICrap product.

Con:
Can't easily be rooted yet.
The curved edge active area gets in the way when dealing with things on the right side of the screen.
Just OK battery life.

For my personal phone Pixel 3 and for my work phone iPhone 7. The Pixel in my opinion is the far superior device.

It's faster, clearer pictures, OS updates happen faster, easily customizable, and quick to use.

The iPhone is made for a different type of consumer than myself. Out of the box it is a fine product, but is slower and lacks the features I really enjoy. I always found it funny when iPhone was advertising features I had on my initial Pixel for years, as brand new features.

I've used Motorolas, Samsung, Blackberry and a few other devices between work and personal use... Pixel is by far my favorite.
