All these new changes are trash and pointless. Android flagships receive two os updates usually shipped one os behind on purpose.

This means one os update before fulfilling their responsibility.

I want the industry to move away from traditional oled. Improve the tech or go back to lcd. It saves us $200 in some cases.

My pristine xz1 compact still works but I bought an s9 16 months later anyways. My max is $600. Anything about that is pointless for an Android device.

Im going back to buy old pixels. My pixel 2 is on the way for Xmas. Going to buy a new LG G6. Basically I'm sweeping old flagships for a fraction of the cost.

The Redmi Note 8 looks like a decent butmy if you pixel experience rom. Good phones with s675s are enough to save me from spending over $400.

If you don't care about updates get a Motorola. The upcoming one zoom has a 21:9 ratio.

Next year I refuse to buy a non Apple flagship without a headphone jack.

How are y'all dealing with two smartphone life? I keep grabbing the wrong device.
