What is everyone’s daily driver right now?
I’m currently rocking a pixel 6a but can’t shake an itching desire for an s23

Can’t believe yours is still working. Mine bootlooped after a long flight from Seattle to the east coast

Pixel 7a. I recently moved to this from a Fold3. If the pixel fold has any sort of dex-like functionality, the pixel fold 2 will probably be my next phone.
Curious, why did you decide to switch from Fold 3 to Pixel 7a?
The main motivator was that I found myself using the outside screen in the fold 90% of the time and it is not a good screen to use 90% of the time.
There were also some software issues with some apps. Google messages, for example, would crash if I tried using it on the open screen. While I recognize that’s a error on the app development side, so few apps are being properly developed for foldables, it was a legitimate issue.
The final deciding factor was repair. I’m very lucky to have a Samsung store near y, but when I needed that exterior display replaced, 3 ubreakifix locations were unable to service the phone for various reasons.
Pixel 6 with just the stock software.
Honestly, I don’t think I could never go “back” to a 3rd party Android device. The hardware might be great, but the clean software and fast software upgrades is was sold me back in the Pixel 3A days.
Same here, though a few peeps here posted about running GrapheneOS on the 6a and I might look at that soon.
It’s been quite a seamless experience for me. Installation involved clicking buttons and waiting. I highly recommend if you want to move away from the Google ecosystem.

I might check it out as well! I also wanna checkout PostmarketOS one day.
Recently got an s23, coming from pixel 5. There’s good and bad. The hardware feels a lot more premium. Software side there’s so much more customisation on the galaxy, but the pixel everything is so smart out of the box. I keep coming across little things that made life so easy on the pixel which are missing from Samsung.
Redmi K30 Pro. Love the pop up camera and the full screen display with no stupid notch or hole punch. Have no plans to replace it any time soon since I just replaced the battery and everything else is still good as new.
Thank you for your feedback. Do you use the default OS or a custom ROM?
Currently running the Xiaomi.eu version of MIUI. Had SparkOS on it for a while a few months ago. Like them both for different reasons, and may go back to Spark at some point in the future.
Lineageos motorola one 5g ace. However the charging port is being fickle so i will be replacing it in the next month or so with the oneplus nord n200. Were it not for the charging port i would keep the moto and be very happy. First phone i have ever had start to fail like that. I have backed up all my data onto my old pixel 3a xl just in case the moto just wont charge one day when i plug it in.

Love my Oneplus 6t. Been the best phone for custom Roms. Currently running /e/OS, no Gapps, clean and sleek.
Xperia 1V. Yes I paid flagship money for a Sony phone because of the headphone jack. No it doesn’t overheat.
I imported an Xperia 10 IV about a month after launch. It’s a brilliant form factor, but I’m very sad that it doesn’t look like sailfish will ever arrive for it.
Nevertheless, I’m glad I bought it - and like you say, the headphone jack gets used frequently enough that you’d miss it if it wasn’t there.
Where did you import your Xperia from? I got myself pretty sold on getting one but totally forgot that Sony don’t sell phones in Aus anymore. Such a shame. I really want an sd card slot & headphone jack.
Pixel 6a running GrapheneOS.

LineageOS 20.
It’s still too fine to replace, although it’s the first phone of which I cracked the screen.
Chose it for the reasonableness of it at the time, was like 200€ new, with microSD, unlockable bootloader, had lineageOS support and still microUSB, as I still don’t even have a hand full of usb-c devices.Just got a Motorola Stylus 5G refurbished for $180 - no complaints so far, can’t beat it for the price
Z4 Flip. I like the smaller footprint and since I don’t take a lot of pictures I don’t mind the downgrade in camera from my previous S22. And no, the fold don’t bother me.
