I don't want a foldable phone, I want the phone I bought in 2020 that worked flawlessly to not lag because somebody forced Liquid Glass on it.
@Gargron capitalism means your device must eventually fail so they can keep selling you new ones. Capitalism is for the rich, not consumers.
@Gargron They really need to pick a lane: artificial obsolescence OR hyper-inflated hardware due to scarcity.
We really can't take being told to buy a new phone every year when phones are starting to cost as much as used cars.
@Gargron I want a phone that fits in my hand.
@Gargron i literally press a button, it makes an animation of me pressing a button, but it doesnt register
how…
@Gargron I refuse to update to iOS 26.
i want everyone who uses smart phones to realize they are funding genocide in africa with every purchase of a phone.
and to PAY!
and i don't mean with money.
@Gargron yes please...
I would personally take the iPhone 5 or even the original iPhone. You know answer the phone provide a contact list maybe be able to read email. That’s it that’s all I want a phone for and realistically I don’t even need the email.
@Gargron I want my phone that works flawlessly with no lag to just receive updates.
@Gargron i just want small one
(i hate this giant and heavy things)
@Gargron I have my iPhone 12 mini and I can’t see anything that entices me to move past that because it actually works, I dread every update
@Gargron
I look back at my old Instagram photos that I downloaded (before I kicked that app to the curb) and I can clearly see the best photos were from my Samsung Note 3. It was also a very good phone.
With features like Live Rewind and Reference image and more client side scanning happening...when my devices die I'm gonna move to linux and alternatives for sure.
@Gargron just buy the two-grand phone and never unfold it.
@Gargron Did you try the ios 27 beta at all? It runs smoother (or at least more consistently) on my old iPhone 11 Pro that I’ve been using for testing than iOS 26 did on an iPhone 17, to the point where I was seriously considering going back to the older phone.
Feels like Apple assigned someone to work on optimization for the first time in years.
