I went from a Samsung to a Pixel, because of the Samsung bloat. I mean I get a bit of Google bloat, but nothing like Samsung.

Also I miss phones have a charge port AND a headphone port. My Pixel uses ONE usbc port for both and I fucking hate that shit. I feel like they're forcing me to buy wireless head/earphones and I don't want to fucking dammit! I prefer wired ones tyvm

Same!!! I will never use wireless headphones - sorry but I already have trouble remembering to charge my phone as it is, I do NOT want to have to remember to charge headphones as well and I would be fuming if I'd headed out and the headphones had no charge. No thank you.

I can get away with a 3.5mm to USB c converter if I have to, but it sucks on flights, PT etc when you want to charge your phone and listen to music at the same time.

Sigh. I remember the days when you could swap out phone batteries ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I had a navy blue Motorola flip phone, and a friend had a pink one, so we swapped the backs. Mine navy with a hot pink back and her vice versa. It was super cool!
