Not bragging just curious?

Own

Samsung S21 Fe White 128GB
Samsung Z Flip4 Blue 512GB
Apple iPhone 13 mini Green 128GB
Google Pixel 7 Pro Obsidian 128GB

Samsung A32 5G. Gift for my Philippines trip.

I'm probably going to buy a phone in Manila that has an IR remote. I'm only familiar with Vivo or Xiaomi, so we'll see.

Only the Pixel 7 Pro. But I did also get a Pixel Watch and a Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3. I also bought an HP X2 11 Chromebook, but then returned it because of poor performance with Android games.

Wondering which device you folks use daily the most?

I guess the S22U before because of battery life and now it's the 7P.

I treat the Flip4 special and only take it out when I go out to dinner or get together.

I even use the 13 mini less now since sadly I caved in and got an Apple Watch, the 8 series cellular.

This is a funny subject for me lol Because I buy a LOT of phones. None of them I ever end up keeping. I mostly buy them to tease myself and to see if there's anything worthwhile to switch to.

So, I had bought a replacement Galaxy Note 10+ to my Note 10+ I had purchased last year. I had taken the device to ubreakifix to have the battery changed. Bad idea. They screwed up the device and I constantly had an on and off again green screen issue. So, I bought another Note 10+ since I liked that device so much. I wish I would have just bought something different though. I had been fixated on the Note 9 for a long time as well, and in June, I bought one from Swappa. I intended to use it as my secondary device and switch back and forth between the Note 10+ and Note 9. Well, I quickly realized this was just a bad idea and sold it about two months later.

I had bought a refurbished LG V60 from Amazon that I was super in love with and planning to switch to, but then... I accidently dropped it on the sidewalk outside my house and broke it... That's all I'm gonna say about that lol

Now recently, I bought an S21 Ultra from Ebay refurbished as another "just try out," device that I have fallen in love with, and I have decided to make it my new device. It's been that good. Currently working on trying to sell my Note 10+

A few other devices I have purchased this year but didn't keep are the Note 20 Ultra, S20 Ultra, S20, S20 plus and S10 5G.

More than I should have... I usually only buy what I actually need, not this year. This could become an addiction :eek: :p
