Thoughts on Raylo, "hiring" technology

I’m sorta an Android guy, but have had iPhone in recent years, until last year, I swapped back to android (Oppo Find x9 pro) and while I like the phone, I feel the need to move back… Home kit beats the crap out of Google home and for some reason, this Oppo Find x9 pro only offers 1 physical sim and 1 esim, not dual esim, even though it can have 2 physical sims active

Notifications not coming through in a timely manner, I can unlock my phone and get 5-8 notifications at once, unacceptable really.

The camera also has struggles when it really shouldn’t.

/rant about the Oppo Find x9 pro

Long story short, I’m going to Japan and the rest of my family have iphones, so if I’m also on iPhone I can Airdrop photos… Much easier than asking them to get “Oconnect”

Anyway, to my questions.. Has anyone tried Raylo? What’s your experience?

I was thinking about buying the x9 pro yesterday :joy:. Notification thing would annoy me. Shame as I’ve never had issues with them on my x3 pro.

Never used raylo but don’t think I like the idea of hiring a phone.

I’m thinking about it like leasing a car

They give you the option to buy it out, after your period is up only it’s a monthly Riolling contract although you can get cheaper by signing up for a year two years etc

I guess if I really don’t like it I can return the phone for free with him 14 days

I guess I’m talking myself into it but the rest of my family have iPhones and we’re going to Japan in March, Airdrop, passmo etc, is not natively supported by Android. Apart from the Google pixel 9 and 10 but even then it’s slow for what I’ve seen
