Maybe you've had bad luck with devices? I've stuck with Google phones for a while, and mostly had good experiences. Nexus 5X, Pixel 2, Pixel 4a lately.
The Nexus 5X was great, until it bricked itself. Fortunately, freezing it (literally in a freezer) would get it running long enough to get a few critical bits off.
Pixel 2 was a great phone, no complaints. Only replaced it because the battery life was getting painfully low. And the charging connection got really finicky in the last 6 months or so.
Pixel 4a is also great. Only issue is that for some reason, like a quarter of my contacts names don't show up in the text messenger conversation list. Weird, but I can live with it.
- hug 6y agoYour definition of "good experiences" differs from mine. Like "Oh I absolutely loved my new car, ran like a dream. Of course there was that one time it spontaneously set on fire on while I was driving it but other than that, it was excellent."
- ufmace 6y agoWell I chuckled at least. But yeah, a car spontaneously catching on fire is completely unacceptable and should never ever happen. A phone's battery life getting worse after 2.5 years of use is pretty normal and expected. The other one with the sudden hard bricking is pretty bad, but it worked perfectly up until then, and it lasted about the normal lifetime of a phone anyways. The parent to mine was complaining about day to day usage issues that I've never had.
