Comment on Apple Reportedly Moving Ahead With Ads in Maps App
boonhet@sopuli.xyz 2 days agoI used to do budget Androids but they got so slow in just a year or two. Mostly I blame eMMC degradation but there’s also a massive difference in processing power between the high and low end.
I wanted something to last me multiple years so I got a Oneplus 7 Pro. That got slow because they ruined their OS so I gave up and went iPhone. No complaints so far.

iPhones are nice but their price tag ain’t. I have a moto G stylus 5G 2025 and it’s working great. 400 bucks and works like a flagship for my uses.

The Moto G I had a while ago was great actually. It only lasted a bit over 2 years though. Mine was the second gen. After that, I had two cheapo Chinese phones and then I started moving upmarket because of my sour experiences.
My Oneplus is still usable 6 years later, but only with a custom ROM and the battery life is shit. And the microphone is shot. If they’d kept OxygenOS and given longer support, I probably would have stayed with them to be honest. First 2 years of ownership were awesome.
