subpar? this is just capitalism ensuring we “need” a new phone.
Except that they're admitting fault and offering free battery replacement... The update of course sucks ass but it's a safety measure.
My next phone will be a Fairphone 6, even though they're not officially sold here in Brazil.
And when that one breaks... Maybe no phone at all.
Honestly at this rate my next phone will be a feature phone. There is a lot I love about my Poco X7 Pro, but also a lot that I do not. And a lot of things seem to be getting worse.
When that one breaks there's a good chance you can replace just the broken part.
Yep
how does one source such a phone to brazil?
Ask a friend to buy it in europe and send it to you
i barely have friends here, let alone a continent over.
Thats the cheap option. You can of course fly yourself to germany or netherlands and but it your self or even use a forwarding service.
do you happen to be brazilian? because i'm not aware of any forwarding service that can sneak around customs and id like to know one.
yep - I was still happy with my 4a until they killed its battery. I bought a used 8 Pro. That was about 3 months ago, and it still feels too big.
It's not that bad and got 83 euros back and payed 300 euros 2. 5 years ago.
How? Link?
