iOS
>easy to use, elegant, minimalist
>never bothers you with popups

Android
>convoluted menus
>"wanna backup your files to google cloud?"
>"new privacy options available! pleaseeee allow personalized ads"
>"review your privacy options"
>play store is full of ads, every app is full of ads

I hate both companies but the amount of popups in Android is so staggering I felt overwhelmed and scrapped my 500-dollar phone after 2 days.

I miss the autistic PDAs and pocket computers era. Smartphones are souless. 2000s technology in general was exciting, now its just generic dopamine bricks

LineageOS is a branch of Android used on rooted (basically means completely unlocked) devices. Seems cool but I am way too lazy to root my phone.

I have an American Galaxy Note 10+. I don't think you can unlock the bootloader on this particular phone.

I checked that website and it specifically says the Exynos versions, which are in Europe and stuff. The USA has Snapdragon, which is impossible to unlock from what I read unfortunately.

I got this phone because it was a nice one and it also had the microSD card slot that all the stupid ass phone manufacturers are removing now. So stupid.

Yeah, old nokias were based. They were different one of another in some way. I always dreammed on thar series that werw basically a pocket laptop. My friends tripped balls over symbian games because all of them had cheap ass motorola flip phones and java games were trash, while symbian native games were on full 3D with shaders and reflection effects. They used to beg me to play the asphalt urban games because they werent almost slightly better than an actual psx game

You probably have a ton of bloatware that you need to uninstall.
