I really like the looks of those TCL NXTpaper phones. They use a matte color eink display that looks amazing.

rn using a Samsung Galaxy A32, planning to switch to a pixel 7a eventually

I have an iPhone 11 Pro. It’s a few years old now, but still gets updates and is still quick enough. However, the battery is fading pretty quick and Apple has made replacement inconvenient at best. I’m going to order a DIY battery kit that will hopefully take care of that, otherwise it’s gonna be replacement time.

iPhone 13 Pro. Will probably keep it until the 16 Pro later this year maybe, or I might go another year. Nothing wrong with it so far, I mostly just want a type-C connector for convenience at this point

Pixel 8 sounds like what you're looking for.

Just bought a Galaxy s20+ ultra refurbished a couple of months ago. Only cost like 300 and had comparable specs to the current $1500 phones.

Wife has to have apple and I couldn't bring myself to buy her refurbished for her birthday... bit the bullet and got an iPhone that was 1 or 2 generations old, still cost like 800-900.

Samsung ultras series with a pen. The pen feeling is real-time. Also pretty robust little thing. I’ve had it a few years and I love this phone.

I also still have an lg g4 that still works. I keep it as a backup emergency given that it still works and has a replaceable battery.

Pixel 4, probably gonna be on this phone for a while.

Whatever work pays for

iPhone 13 Pro. Probably going to upgrade to a 16 Pro this fall.
