I had the s9+ after many other Samsung through the years and it was ok but too much bloat and i loved my previous pixel 2xl so I knew that I had to go back. From here on out strictly Pixel for me
Last google phone i had was the nexus and I really liked it

The google voice assistant stuff that I thought was really gimmicky initially turns out to be really useful and google lense is super cool

The camera is great and that low light feature is amazing as well

I’m already consider changing back to an Android now that I’ve had more time to think. I use Snapchat a lot and was wondering what the camera quality is like on the s9+, pixel and on a Hauwiii when sing Snapchat.

I’ve stuck with Samsung from s3 but my s8 died on me after a year. Just woke up Sunday and the phone was dead, wouldn’t charge or turn back on. Reboot didn’t work either. All of my Samsung’s have gave me trouble at some stage but I’ve always been so used to them, and hated how other phones felt but in bad temper....
You should have tried removing the battery and blow on it during one minute.

I'm still with a Samsung S5 neo after 3 and a half years and this happened to me like a month ago.

Upgrading from my beloved Nexus 6P to the Pixel 3 XL. Got it for $530 due to a black friday sale :tuttosport:

It's supposed to arrive today, lets hope the package doesn't get stolen...
Talking about stolen packages, I had an order or mail order marijuana of 3/4lbs of weed stolen twice in a row :(
The provider was cool enough to reimburse in points, this time around instead of getting it shipped from Vancouver to here, I got it sent to Edmonton to my buddy he'll repackage it and send it to me here in Iqaluit. Hopefully it'll arrive safely, been waiting over 2 months for this. I lost 15lbs.

This is why I hate ordering things online or getting anything shipped, I don't trust any of these people. Usually these companies hire such shitty people too. I bet you get it this time now, assholes.

Glad you got it!

It's postal service that's been absolute shit, i can't complain much, but the people that are running a small business are really hurting. Canada Post has been shitting the bed royally! Hopefully they'll get their shit sorted out for the holidays.

I've had the Hauwai Pro for one day and already want to return it.

The front facing camera is awful and beautifies selfies.

Snapchat which I use alot lags, crashes and takes the most horrible photos.

Sound quality is between average and poor for sub an expensive phone.

It's a shame because everything else is near perfect.

The beauty effect on selfies can be turned off. As for the rest, I'm not sure. Is this the P20 or the Mate 20? I saw great reviews for them.

    I can't stand Huawei, I always thought that Samsung is my least favourite brand when it comes to mobile phones but apparently Huawei has taken over.

    The way the Galaxy S3 degraded over time, that was terrible. Became unusable during its last days. Had it for 3-4 year I believe, but still. That combined with the bloatware, I probably won't ever buy another one. But nothing can top the shitshow that is LG.

    I'm curious as to why you hate Huawei though. All I've had from them is the Nexus 6P and I loved every minute with it.

    Same I had an S3 at some point and it just failed to work. The thing is Samsung started making good phones from the S5 and on, the ones before that are garbage

    Do you know how? Its the p20 pro.

    It's a near perfect phone apart from some really obvious flaws

    Which phones are your favourite? I've gone off Samsung and I've still another two weeks to get used to this before I can exchange it.

    anybody who can give me a quick pointer at some low budget android phone off the top of their heads?
    least important feature is camera, most important is screen characteristics

    brand doesn't matter
    my 8yo HTC phone has started typing whatsapp messages by itself
