Fuck forcing me to have a shitty battery. God awful bullshit.
It wouldn't be shitty. Essentially, it will be the same battery, but the phone will just be bulkier.
Same (or better). Remember the aftermarket Galaxy S5 batteries that had increased capacity?
Actually, no, I've never owned a Samsung, lol 😂. HTC, then Asus, then another Asus, then Xiaomi, and now another Xiaomi.
Samsung or Apple, that's mostly a US thing. In Europe, we use whatever we can, Moto, Xiaomi, Samsung, Asus, Honor, Vivo, TCL... whatever the operator offers that has the best performance vs. price value 😂.
Huh. Seems to only be me that buys phone in store then. EU too. I’m on Apple, but my family is a mix of Apple and Samsung.
Eastern Europe to be more exact... but I have talked to people from Western Europe, most of them take whatever the operator offers and is a good compromise between price and performace. Currently, Xiaomi seem like the best choice regarding this and stability/reliability.
A fatter phone is shitty. You really want to split hairs there.
Depends on your kinks I guess, I happen to like BBWs 🤣.
To each their own I suppose 🤣
My point, it's it's a downgrade for most people and you can replace the battery at a shop for$10 in labor (or dyi should you choose) if you want to keep the phone.
Yeah, that is true to be honest. The battery thing might be blowing it a bit out of proportion, but the charging/data connector, that is OK IMO.
Yes the lightning shit was bullshit.
It never really gained popularity, just too expensive as a standard, and USB 3.0 was cheap, available and offered good transfer speeds, so 🤷...
