Since 2010 I have gotten a new Android phone every single year, except one year. I didn't get the Pixel 4 three years ago.

Your issue is that you mentioned Samsung. Samsung is an actual piece of flaming shit that bastardizes their great hardware with the worst software across the entire mobile landscape. It's horrible. Their software has gotten better, slightly, over the past decade.

I have only used Google Nexus / Google Pixel since the Nexus 4, for the most part. I'm a stock Android / Google Experience Maxi. Prior to that, I used the Moto X and Moto X 2014 and originally the HTC Droid Incredible rooted and ROMed to remove HTC shitty UI.

My kids wife and kids both keep their Pixels for 2-3 years and then we get new ones when the promotion is right. I only get a new one because I'm an Android Maxi and get FOMO without having the latest and greatest.

Interesting thread.

I'm mainly a desktop guy and don't do much Nostr...ing on my phone.

But I've been trying to cope with a cheap LG Prime android phone given to me when ATT summarily cancelled my beloved Moto from their 5G network. The LG is hopelessly slow and has insufficient storage, just driving me mad. I have several older iPhones but I just don't get along with iOS. So I've just ordered a Pixel 6 refurb and hope I can get it to work for me.

Any advice on the transfer sim process? I hope to avoid the ATT store doing this.

Wish me luck

For the record... my "new" Pixel 6 was an easy migration experience. Sim/data/apps transfer all went smoothly. It's a big relief to have ample resources on my phone again. 😎
