Just started here on lemmy, taking a look around and what’s here. I don’t see this area is used - at least recently. However, I do love Google Pixel. I have both a 7 Pro (Stock OS) and 7a with GraphineOS.
The main thing that got me to switch to Pixel from an iPhone 13 Pro Max was the hardware and software like 12GB ram on 7 Pro, the processor for mobile gaming, the call screening on all pixel devices, call hold etc. Super useful!
Sharing my smartphone history for fun
HTC 2125 > HTC 8125 > Nexus One > Nexus S > Galaxy Nexus > Nexus 5x > Pixel 3
I miss notification LEDs most of all…
I miss IR blasters and slide-out physical keyboards. I would unironically trade a foldable screen for a sliding keyboard.
Here’s mine, for some more fun -
Sony Xperia X1 (the very first Xperia - it had a stylus, keyboard and ran Windows Phone 5.1 (the original pre-iPhone OS, not the later metro style OS)
HTC Desire (the og desire! and my first Android phone. I rooted this and flashed it on a weekly basis. Miss those days…)
Nexus 4
Moto E (I dropped my 4 and figured I’d try a super cheap phone, worked surprisingly well)
Sony Xperia X3 Compact
Nexus 5X
Pixel 3
Pixel 7
I miss small phones so much…
