NGL, it looks like a Samsung phone.
Aye. I’m still on my S20+. Need a replacement battery, but otherwise nothing new is worth the cost yet. Pixels be the same Pixels, Samsungs, the same Samsungs. Where the upgrades are happening, I just won’t see them, so nothing “new”.
Does the s20 still get software updates?
I’m genuinely asking as I need to get a secondhand phone for work stuff, but want to make sure I have security updates. Also, Dex seems super cool.
My note 20 still gets updates.
Dex is pretty cool. I just lack a use case.
Only difference I can see is that it looks like they sharpened the edges and removed the screen bevel in the process.
But that could have already happened on prior devices without me noticing, since my current device is years old and I haven’t seen a need to upgrade yet.
Amazing. They put a screen on one side and cameras on the other!
What incredible things will they come up with next?
Man I really miss the design language of the S8/S9
I remember when I used to get excited for new phones…
Since about the s20 it’s all been the same shittery. No jack, no SD card, just gimmicks and prices that rival my mortgage payment.
Pure shite.
It looks exactly like the s24
What half baked software features will they make exclusive to this release?
