Here’s a new discussion for the /c/Android community!
Are you devoted to a particular Android device manufacturer, or do you relish experimenting across different brands?
🔍 What drives your loyalty to a specific brand? Is it their consistent quality, exceptional customer service, or unique features? Let the community know what keeps you coming back for more!
💡 On the other hand, if you’re open to trying new brands, what motivates you to explore beyond your comfort zone? Is it the allure of cutting-edge technology, competitive pricing, or recommendations from friends?
I was a Samsung loyalist, up until my current phone, the Note 20 Ultra. Their decisions since then have me questioning what’s out there for the first time in my life. There is almost NO significant differences between Android phones anymore once they stripped away what made them unique - hardware superiority (e.g., SD card slot, magstripe payment, etc.) with solid software. Had they kept their $0.50 pieces of hardware, they’d have whatever the profit margins of the upcoming S24U would be from my wallet, and probably more valuable to them, blind loyalty without brand curiosity.
But at this point, I’m just waiting for more reviews for the Sony Xperia I V.
