Man, I was considering an upgrade, but I absolutely don’t want anything to do with AI on my phone.
I want the hardware and some usable software to make my phone work the way I like.
Why does every damn company these days feel like enshitification is the only way forward?
Yeah definitely, can someone suggest a phone like that. I am planning to get one.
I got a nothing (2) phone and love it
Everyone is shitting on Apple for barely any upgrades except the camera over the past few years.
And really what we need is to stop it as a society that you need the latest things all the time.
I completely agree, and I don’t think as many people are buying phones as often as they once did.
But if I’m going to replace a 4-5 year-old phone, the replacement should be significantly better after that long.
I don’t see anything compelling in the last 5 generations of phones, other than the camera. And even those are simply OK. Nothing justifies the prices we’re seeing.
My perfect phone would be something like a Fairphone with a good camera. Reparability these days means way more to me than gimmicky crap.
The one upgrade from Apple that I see it’s worth was the 15 line, because the finally dropped lightning for USB-C.
No, people shit on Apple because they release the same phone every year at an absurdly high price point.
If their phones were affordable, I think everyone would nearly universally love them. They sell standard at premium prices with lofty advertising that promises you the world, yet delivers the baseline, or just below it.
