[–] amotio@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (3 children) No OnePlus? I have had OP8 for few years now and its still working perfectly fine. Battery could be better but other than that its still fast and reliable. permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] viking@infosec.pub 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) ColorOS is hot garbage unfortunately, full of Chinese bloat. Up until the OP11 they would ship a different release for Western markets (OxygenOS), but from the 12 that's apparently a thing of the past. I'm still rocking the 10pro and love it, but absolutely dread the moment when it inevitably fails someday. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Voyajer@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (2 children) They haven't stopped using OxygenOS, the 13 ships with OxygenOS 15.0 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] CMLVI@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) The OS has merged with Color OS. It's still called OxygenOS, but they have basically unified the two. It's also what got me out of 1+, my last phone with them was an 8 Pro. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Voyajer@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago Ah, good to know. permalink fedilink source parent [–] viking@infosec.pub 3 points 2 years ago I wish, unfortunately it's just a name change. Under the hood it's all ColorOS, there's no more separate development. permalink fedilink source parent [–] refreeze@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (2 children) I'm still rocking a OP6 running the latest Lineage. Cost me $60 used. $1000 for a phone is insane! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) I would be as well just that I sadly bought a new phone before realising I can do that. Also my bank apps don't work on lineage sadly.

None of those 2 options are supported on the website. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 2 points 2 years ago* I've never paid more than $150 for a phone. Having 2 or 3 phones for the same price means I can run a hot spare and have a test device for less than one of these new phones. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Live_Let_Live@lemmy.world [S] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children) permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] IronKrill@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 years ago Stop using whatever website that is my man, lmao. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Substance_P@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (2 children) How about the OnePlus 13?
