  • I’m starting to really dislike android. A lot. Material you isn’t picked up by anyone but Google and a few apps here and there.

    Stock android is a joke, it barely works.

    Pixel flavor android has been the same for three years only adding ai nonsense to the latest releases.

    My pixel 8 has awful battery life and gets super hot on light use like, listening to music over Bluetooth.

    How the fuck did we end up here. I want a redesign. I want a consistent redesign that doesn’t age as badly and quickly as any android design has. Everyone in the design community keeps glorifying material design over iOS but honestly iOS has aged way better than even the newest design of material you…








  • Reception is awful. It is rare that I actually have a stable connection if I don’t have WiFi. I used my OP5t to check if it really is a device issue and yeah it is. This is only slightly better of I leave 5G on, which is an absolute battery killer.

    The battery already barely lasts me a day. If I wake up really early for my standards, let’s say 6am, and I have to commute even just 30 minutes and I spend that time on my phone? Yeah I will have to charge again at like 3pm latest.

    The finger scanner is so unreliable that I stopped using it at all. It kept locking my banking app, it never works on login, and even when it does work it never does so on the first try.

    The camera produces over sharpened garbage. I have never seen images this heavily processed. I luckily found open camera as a replacement but it’s very outdated and not great to use. One upside of it is that instead of having the blue app icon break the material 3 theme on my home screen, I can hide it in the quick tiles…
