What phone are you using? Pixel 4A

Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities? Very happy with it. It's still very quick - never felt a slowdown, it, was and still is cheap to buy, has a good enough camera, good enough battery life, love the back mounted finger print scanner, and is a good size.

Only real downside is it's at the tail end of google's security update support.

Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot? Smart phones only - Moto X, nexus 4, nexus 6, essential phone, pixel 4a. Liked all of them, but I think moto x I liked the least & essential phone I liked the most.

How often do you upgrade to a new phone? When my previous one is broken or the OS gets too slow.

What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc. Tablets is all.

Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.) No apple products. I won't pay premium prices and I'm pretty set on the Google eco system for better or for worse. Have a few windows OS computers either that I built or use for work.
