Here’s a new discussion for the /c/Android community!

Are you devoted to a particular Android device manufacturer, or do you relish experimenting across different brands?

🔍 What drives your loyalty to a specific brand? Is it their consistent quality, exceptional customer service, or unique features? Let the community know what keeps you coming back for more!

💡 On the other hand, if you’re open to trying new brands, what motivates you to explore beyond your comfort zone? Is it the allure of cutting-edge technology, competitive pricing, or recommendations from friends?

I personally have no loyalties and will go wherever the good deals and specs are! That’s currently with the S23 Ultra thanks to a ridiculously good trade-in promo, but I’ve previously used LG, Sony, OnePlus, Motorola, Nexus, Pixel, and HTC devices. With that said, I also don’t often feel as much of a need to upgrade anymore, unless someone in the family needs a hand-me-down.

There’s really no real reason to stay loyal to a brand when you’re using Android. If you like a particular OEM’s UI or a feature they provide, good for you! If not, then there’s literally no reason not to switch brands. It’s not like your apps won’t work or your contacts won’t move over.

The only brand I’ll ever be loyal to is my mother’s cooking

I HAD been loyal to OnePlus for as long as they were friendly to enthusiasts, developers, and explorers of various firmware.

Now I’m on the hunt for a brand that provides those things as OnePlus has moved in a different direction.
