A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

you say that but I smashed the screen on my pixel 4a a few months back, had a quick look around at what new devices I could get in it's price range, and the 4a was still the device that met my needs best.

I literally just had my 4a's screen replaced this week lol

New phones on the market offer no incentive to "upgrade" quite frankly. Also I don't want to give up my aux port, I still have accessories I use with the aux cable which I couldn't use anymore with a newer phone.
