One thing that makes me reconsider using android over apple is how actually slow it is sometimes you can click on anything and have to wait black screen for a minute before doing something

Google needs to give up on making hardware in general, the Tensor line of processors will never be any good and Pixels will never be a serious competitor in the already saturated phone market, and the rest of their hardware "efforts" are not much better

why does every phone have to be so fucking huge nowadays, im never letting go of my mini phone idc if they try to break it with updates

This is my unpopular opinion: I don't care about small phones. I can't fit an iPad in my pocket so having a larger screen for watching shitty YouTube essays during lunch and browsing the Shroom and random Kiwicuck threads on my phone is convenient.

Display resolutions higher than 1080p are completely unnecessary for phones and manufacturers only use them to increase the price.

This is true, Apple more or less figured out the magic PPI you needed to reach was 326 like 15 years ago with the iPhone 4. Even then, I don't think most modern phone displays go past 1440p to begin with, Sony used to make phones with 4K displays but even they stopped doing that because all it did was add cost and suck up battery life (and modern Sony phones are already weird SNCA devices to begin with)

Same with giant bulging quadruple-quintuple-sextuple-stovetop ultra-HD 8K 240FPS cameras that no noob would ever need

GrapheneOS

Honestly the whole "less is more" stuff, they make their apps unusable and look barebones while using up 3x the RAM and CPU of a maximalist app from the 2010s, it's bullshit.

the lack of optimization in every single game/app/media or literally anything. apart from that did you know they managed to optimize gta 5 into 2gb, it only lacks cinematics, missions, a bunch of audios and lower textures. but apart from that you can literally play any other available thing that there was on free mode, it also looks horrible but yeah its pretty fun and playable if you have a good pc but 5 gb of space

GrapheneOS

Pixel 11 doesn’t even support it and the newest Motorolas are going to be compatible with GrapheneOS so you can finally use it with a processor that isn’t dogshit

Luckily I don't give a damn whether the processor is dogshit or not, I only use the thing for calls, texts and this shit site.

Also the outer camera panel is literally peeling off and my power button pops right out without a case and I have to like search under the damn desk with a flashlight to find it, that AND my screen is cracked, the phone is only two years old, only the finest Aryan superpooper build quality

Also my dogshit chigga android has this feature to turn off every app in queue that is not being used including my VPN's so it always turns off my VPN's when my phone lags just slightly and its very obnoxious

also making every app web based react slop
Only benefit is that the apps can work on linux but at the cost of hogging the ram
