Goodbye OnePlus, hello Samsung

[phenomlab]

@Madchatthew yes, I wasn’t impressed at all query the last oneplus handset I had and previously was always a Samsung user - from the S2 for that fact and that now makes me feel ancient!

I also have an S23, and will never use anything else. I loved the oneplus 5, but they seemed to go down hill after that. I also own 4 samsung tvs.

@phenomlab Very nice! It is funny on how the phones we talk about dates us lol

[phenomlab]

@Madchatthew Nokia 5110 anyone?

LOLOL I remember that one hahaha

[phenomlab]

@Madchatthew Thought you might!

For all the young ones out there, this was bleeding edge tech in the early 2000’s

[Madchatthew]

@phenomlab Booom, blast from the past! I remember having one of those now actually. LOL that is crazy!

[phenomlab]

@Madchatthew yeah, and the snap on covers you could get for them!

[Madchatthew]

@phenomlab oh yeah LOL, I remember those. I had one of those as well. Usually didn’t they have a clip on them so you could put them on your belt?

[phenomlab]

@Madchatthew OMG yes, they did have a belt clip! I think that’s where Blackberry got their design from. Another device I really liked.

[Madchatthew]

@phenomlab yeah I liked those Blackberrys as well. I never had one but played around with one that I knew had one.

My Samsung a53 wouldn’t charge so I’ve done away with Samsung and got a Nothing 2a.

A very similar sort of look to the iPhone. None or very little bloatware, decent battery life to boot.

Although apologies for taking it slightly off track.

Have either of you used a phone where you could install and run ubuntu on it for phone software? I know they have roms out there for that and I think they also sell phones with a version of it installed.

I remember snake on that phone! That was an awesome game!!

[phenomlab]

@Madchatthew not tried it myself but am intrigued.

[Madchatthew]

@phenomlab they have roms that will work on various phones. I am guessing that they would have a rom for your oneplus phone if you ever decide to play around with it. I was wanting to install it on one of my older samsung phones but they didn’t have a rom for it at the time.

@Madchatthew I traded in my old oneplus handset as a part exchange for the Samsung I now have
