What's the Thinkpad of smart phones?
pic unrelated
>>105704902 (OP)what's the thinkpad of nb genders?
>>105704902 (OP)A good flipphone aka dumbhone, obviously. :)
>>105705067Now we're talking. This might be my next phone unless it's actually terrible in some ways, who knows at this point (I'm not OP though)
Blackberry ? And then Iphone ofc.
>>105704915Autism. Discord. Reddit. Most Liberal Universities right now.
>>105704902 (OP)There isn't one, pixels at least have the best custom ROM support and you can flash grapheneos on them but from a hardware perspective everything sucks.
>>105705067Nice on paper but their support is dogshit and their devices become less and less repairable with each new revision.
>>105704902 (OP)Literally your pic
>>105705067This is more like the frame work of phones
For modularity I would guess late LG smartphones and for specs and ports SONY ftw I guess. There are also some /CSG/ phones like Unihertz for smol lovinโ crimi- I mean, peoples.
>>105704902 (OP)The Pixels probably
>>105705067No that's closer to the Frameworks
>>105704902 (OP)/g/ always said Moto G but idk its been like a decade of phone tech so that's probably changed now.
All the answers are bullshit lol. There's no good phones. There's just less shitty ones. And the more time passes the worse it's going to get. Phones have been capable of doing everything you need a phone to do for a decade, maybe except for the camera. Buying a new phone means you probably are getting less.
>>105704902 (OP)Smartphones might not have clits today, but I wouldn't mind.
Better than a fucking notch.
>>105704902 (OP)half of ram soldered gay button for gay retards and the think knob puts a hole in screen sounds iphone
>>105708834Moto G is shit now
It literally have a system app that install games without your consent, and if you uninstall them, it will reinstall them
Not to mention Android went to the shit from 12 onwards
>>105708834>>105709286The hardware is really good for the price and they have headphone jacks/microSD slots.
Yeah the stock Moto android is shit and they have a 1 week timer on brand new devices before you can unlock the bootloader. That's why you should get a model compatible with LineageOS and install that. Motorola phones with a custom ROM are brilliant.
>>105704949>Older ones had cool features like IR BlastersMy current Xiaomi has this lmao
Not a thing, all smartphone are the opposite of thinkpads, they're all iPhone clones, youd figure if nu/g/ wasn't complete shit they'd hate all smartphone more than they hate macbooks, smartphpnes a disease and must be purged.
>>105705036I've been buying the Moto G every 4 years for over a decade now, I drop this bitch on concrete all the time and somehow the screen is still functional. Maybe it's the case, but for the $50 I pay these phones fulfill their role
>>105704949I miss messing with public tvs from my s5 :')
