Currently using a Samung S21 FE

Was a die-hard Google phone user for many years from the Nexus phones and up. This S21-FE came up cheap and I loved it. I've removed most the Samsung crap with adb, and bought my daughter the identical phone.

To be honest these days most phones are just .. the same? We've reached critical mass with features. Its fast, it works, has a nice screen, responsive fingerprint reader, great camera.. but then so do all flagship phones of the last few years.

I have no inclination to upgrade. The times of new phones every 12 months is over. I've had this over 12 months and can easily see myself with it in another 12.

I have a Pixel Watch which I think is a good first offering direct from the big G. Thats a space I will want to upgrade when the time comes.
