What phone are you using? (Late 2018 Edition)

Having rocked Nexus (and Pixel) phones since 2012 with the launch of the Nexus 4 (prettiest phone in the universe. :heart_eyes:) it’s safe to say that I wouldn’t break that trend :joy:

So I’m using a Google Pixel 3 XL 64GB Black :sunglasses:

Really loving this phone, the camera is nuts and the whole phone just feels slick! I wish I didn’t need a case :sob: but I can’t afford to break an £800 phone :sweat_smile: the glass back might not look as nice as the Nexus 4’s but it feels so smooth and soft - pretty weird way to describe glass, I know.

That’ll be me until this time next year where I’ll almost definitely be praising the Pixel 4 XL :wink:

On my first iPhone after only ever having an Android phone for the last ten years.

Got a 7 Plus and can’t believe how well it performs relative to the Pixel XL I switched from (which is the same age).

OnePlus 5T. Still as snappy as day one. Battery still lasts a day and a half usage dependant.

Still rocking my OnePlus 3T. Lots of nice phones around but to be honest I’m still really happy with this one.

Pixel 2 XL
Which is infact my second one as the first one had a dead pixel (no pun intended) and faulty fingerprint sensor!

Have you experienced this?

An iPhone SE that is falling to pieces in my hand, but still functioning! :partying_face:

I’ve abused this phone long enough and I fear the end is near, not sure where I’m going next though. I’m increasingly unhappy with iOS and Apple but don’t want to touch Google’d Android either. I’m looking at LineageOS and friends, but am not massively confident.

I’ve had the P2XL since launch with no issues. No lag, no slowdown, no screen issues, nada.

That tweet got attention because the author is the owner of the most popular Android blog. Proof that a dodgy unit can end up in anyone’s hands.

I see there are some good sale prices for P2 and P2XL - might have to change my tack on the XR. R-

Lineage can’t legally include Google apps but they take seconds to install at the same time…

Also, Monzo doesn’t check SafetyNet

I experienced occasional lag on the Pixel 2 (not XL). Nothing awful just… Not as butter smooth as a flagship should be?

Currently rocking the OnePlus 6T 8GB RAM and 256GB storage model. Only had OnePlus phones since the OnePlus One.

I’ve got a Pixel 2. Probably keep it as long as I can, or until something really shiny comes in 2019/20.

Sort of hobby. I don’t play about with different ROMs these days, but I used to do it out of interest and the enjoyment of tinkering about with things.

Using an S8+. Have no issues with it, will probably wait a year or so and then replace when 5G phones start rolling out.

I have a galaxy s9. I used to have a strong dislike for Samsung (touchwiz​:face_vomiting::face_vomiting:) so this is my first samsung device and it is fantastic! The software is actually good now. I prefer it to “stock” android .

iPhone 6s+ and have no real reason to upgrade. I have been looking at the one plus 6t because I refuse to pay Apple and Googles ridiculous prices for phones.

I might just stick with my 6s+ until we get some realistic phone prices
