It'd odd how there doesn't seem to be a thread for them here, despite them being the most common technology in the world for many years now, that people can't seem to live without, it's a necessity nowadays.

What smartphones do you use, /tech/ anons?

I just got a Samsung Galaxy A25 as a birthday gift from my sister, it's the 1st time I've used one with 8GB RAM and a 120Hz refresh rate and I have to say, I thought people were dramatic over refresh rates for no reason, that it wasn't a big deal, but damn! I love just how smooth it is now, can't see myself going back to a 60Hz or even 90Hz screen after this one. It's also got a headphone jack and micro SD slot, rare today.

>I just got a Samsung Galaxy A25
I got the previous model the A24 last year, when my Huawei P10 Lite's screen cracked and the LCD broke after an accident. The jump between 60 and 120 hz and larger res was certainly a nice upgrade, but other than that I can't say I give a shit about 90% of its, or any other smartphone's, features. I only use my phone to call, text and seldom browse the internet when I'm not at my PC. I suppose it has a few neat features like the double tap to turn the screen on and off, wake on pick up, and always on display but at the end of the day it's just another phone.
Smartphones are almost not tech. I say this despite using them. From battery to headphone jack, useful features got removed and software get more bloated. Since the software is not open, most old phones are only trash. It's almost as /tech/ as an appliance.

I buy whichever one is cheapest, and Android so as to copy and paste my old APK files into, and never install a sim card and use  a free VOIP instead. If they came pre-rooted and compatible with all service providers people would not hate them so much that prefer 'real computers'.
It's all botnet and sucks big fat donkey dick!
