I’m very happy with my 12 pro max.
I was using a 6S Plus until about a year ago.
I was on a Nexus 6P before I finally got sick of disposable Android phones. The last straw that sent me back to iOS and the iPhone was when I was in another country and my phone kept shutting down at 50% battery. No matter what I did, it kept shutting down. This was not good when I was trying to traverse a city I wasn’t familiar with and needed to rely on Google Maps. I had to keep the phone connected to a portable charger for the rest of the trip.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Android. I still have a Nexus 5 that has had a ton of different ROMs on it, but the amount of just plain terrible devices I had was staggering. The kind of tech that gets shoved out the door and thrown in the trash a year later.
I had the same problem with my 6p back in the day, but a battery swap fixed that problem.
I was just done at that point. I had a slew of problems with the phone and having it be unreliable in a time where I needed it was enough to push me into the walled garden. Everything else? I love to tinker. Linux, the Steam Deck, etc. For a phone, I’m past the age of tinkering. I needed something more consistent.
Yeah I tinkered with everything when I was younger. Nowadays I hand it to my daughter and she figures it out.I stopped jailbreaking my iPhones around iOS 7.
I love playing around on my Steam Deck though.
We got like $400 from a class action about that phone. Had two of them, but the second one didn’t double it for some reason.
