When I was in the second grade, I went to a classmates birthday party that they invited only some of the other kids in my class and I was lucky to go. Growing up we were pretty poor but still happy, so I was dressed in old good will clothes. After the party, I overheard the mom tell my dad don’t bring me around anymore because we weren’t in the same financial class as them.
Just updated my f Droid, is heliboard not up now? Can’t find it via search.
Edit, had to update repositories too. My bad!
Use my blinker.
I bought my Samsung carrierless, there has been ZERO bloat ware on it. I’ve also had this phone fixed THREE TIMES from stuff I BROKE on it. The screen, the microphone, and the camera. Hands down the best, and longest phone I’ve ever owned.
I have a galaxy s21 ultra, they’re still releasing updates and phone works flawlessly though, so you can understand my want to not switch yet.
Android 14 was just released to my phone, guess I’ll look forward to this “feature” in 3 years.
From a fellow s21 owner, I’ve used the built in speakers more than any other phone I’ve ever owned whenever not using a headset. Between it and the 100x camera I refuse to upgrade.
I did end up getting a 50% refund for not sending it back, just bs that the seller can get away with hiding reviews like that.
I bought some stuff from Ali express. Mixed results. Bought a video adapter for my wife’s car so an aftermarket radio could use the factory backup cam. Worked great. Bought a ‘billet’ camshaft for a Suzuki. Was obvious it was cast, because they didn’t bother to align the two halves together they were off 1/8". Left a bad review about it, they deleted the entire part listing, then re-posted it to hide my review, then blocked me as a customer.
Everyone talking about post 2015 phones. You know which ones I thought were legendary for their time of release? LG Voyager 100000, you could watch broadcast TV on that thing. Next runner up was my first android phone, the Motorola Droid slide phone. I miss smart phones that were being creative. Now it’s all the same boring gimmicks.
It all depends on what you are trying to get out of it. If you’re looking for more phone connectivity, you can bet you’ll need to charge it way more often. Easily once a day. If you’re looking for just a fitness tracker, get a fit bit or a Garmin, they last a week or so. I had a fit bit for many years, before Google purchased them up. I had the charge 2, 3, and 4. Had to recharge it about once a week. It worked fine for viewing texts and tracking sleep/steps. About two months ago I switched to a galaxy watch 6 lte, I need my phone for work but don’t always have it directly on me, so it was a compromise. I can deal with the rigorous charging, but having the expanded features, I actually use them. I am unbiased about apple watch VS galaxy watches, I went with a galaxy because I don’t have an iPhone.
Checking in from my S21 ultra that’s still going strong. Love my 100x zoom camera.
