OS update is less of a concern to me. If the phone is from a major company, there will be custom ROMs like the LineageOS sooner or later. It will last me a good while before becoming obsolete as long as the SOC is good enough.

Thank you! Everything makes much more sense now!

I cannot see the post you linked on lemmy.ml at first, but it is now working after I forced ipv4. However I am not sure if forcing ipv4 at all times has any negative impact. I cannot be bothered to turn on and off the setting just to browse lemmy.ml.

Try forcing ipv4. It works for me.

Galaxy S21/22/23, Asus Zenfone 8/9 or Sony Xperia 10 or 5 Series

These are very good phones but they are not small enough for me.

The size of XZ2 compact is very nice but I hate the curved edges and back panel. I think XZ1 compact actually suits me better, but it is almost 6 years old now. I don’t think I will be able to use it for long.

I signed up just now, but there is no email. I don’t know what went wrong.

Update: I got the email, but still no discord link.

Actually, come to think of it, I think Sony has been releasing 5" phones as the Xperia Ace series. They are budget phones that are only available in Japan. I heard the spec is not very good, so I didn’t bother to get one.

I have seen news about custom cables catching fire. I’d day stick with good quality cable unless you are absolutely sure about what you are doing.

If only there was a new Android phone with the size of iPhone 12/13 mini.

Really? I thought the project was dead. I cannot find any news or update on this, let alone a whole discord server.
