What phone you use as your daily driver? And, a discussion of them.

I'm cheap and I hate phones. Moto G stylus

Google Pixel 4 XL. Love it, love it, love it - but google make a few mistakes here and there.
volume for notifications and ringtone are paired? why?
Widevine security was killed in an update, cant do HD streaming now. No fix.

Secondary phone is a samsung A21s, which has horrible performance and a crap LCD but amazing AMAZING battery life - we're talking 5 days of regular use, 2 days of non stop video, or multiple weeks without a SIM (as i use it)... it's the perfect spare, in other words

I use a cheap Blu Studio Mini. No reason for anything better really.

I tend to break phones within weeks, I'm slightly clumsy but alot of the time it's just awful luck, shattered screens from 6 inch drops, even running over one while reversing a forklift.

My current phone (doogee s88 pro) was reasonably cheap for what it is and it seems many parts are just outright stolen from other manufacturers so as long as you know who, the parts are available.
I've had it almost 1 year and it's been slightly punished,metal housing has a few dents and it's been dropped too many times to count but it still functions as new. Reverse wireless charging means I'm the families power bank as the 10,000mah battery is stupidly impressive and with the pandemic I've got into the habit of wishing it with the dishes once a day.

I'm suffering through the pains of having Poco F3 as a daily driver. Proximity sensor issue got better, but not completely fixed yet.
I still keep my Nokia 8 as a backup, but I'm a bit weary of using it daily. It was an excellent phone when I bought it, but just when warranty expired something would go wrong every once in awhile (screen, camera AF, fingerprint scanner, and later - bad signal and random reboots).

Samsung a8 2018, still going, the only thing is that I should change the battery after 3 years of use, but they used the stupid back glass panel, a bit of a nightmare

Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro. My phone usage is low so i stay below the $200 range (previous phone was Moto G).

 

[claylomax]

Xperia XA1 Ultra

Samsung Galaxy A30, I dislike it. It reboots randomly, was laggy as crap until Android 11 update got pushed to it, and overall has been a bad experience. Really wanting to upgrade it, but just nothing interests me right now. I almost went with an iphone 13, cause I have never had anything nice before... but then I was like nah... I like my money.

Order a replacement back glass they are cheap that way if you break it at least you have a replacement ready.

Ancient Galaxy S7. Still works perfect!

 

[FireFox]

Samsung Galaxy S8+ ( 4 years old )

Note: i can have a free phone every 2 years i got the S10+ and sold it.

In my experience OneUi is beautiful but also really slow especially as it ages. I uninstalled the crap out via adb but still kinda laggy once in a while

Probably I'm gonna do it via a repair shop, I would still like the IP68 waterproofing

 

[Outback Bronze]

iPhone 7+

Bought new and still going : ) Just..

Then you might be better off doing it yourself.

Moto G5S Plus. Was barely mid-range when I got it 4 years ago, and it's really starting to struggle now. Can basically only keep one app open at a time, otherwise massive slowdowns and freezes occur. YouTube playback will occasionally freeze and then resume, Spotify will freeze up while scrolling through my playlists, etc etc. Battery only last about a day if I actually use my phone, otherwise I get about 2 days if it's just cellular standby.

I absolutely love the build quality though, it is just a fat brick of aluminium and has stood the test of time very well. The front-facing fingerprint sensor is decent, but I mainly love it for the swipe gestures you can use to replace the on-screen buttons.

Definitely need to replace it, but so many phones are just glossy plastic copies of each other with no aux port and more megapixels and cameras than any human could ever need. May have a look at some of the phones here if there are any that suit my liking

IPhone 11 pro, my second in fact after the first met an untimely death after 3 months of owning it. Stress, sleep deprivation, phone in shirt pocket and chainsaws are a bad combination

I still have my S5+
One of the best.

Still (or should say: again!) happy with my old Samsung Galaxy S6 (Modelname: SM-G920f).
Short after the 24 months, battery was getting real worse (less than 6-12 hours!).

BUT then found an article on custom roms and mods, so...

Now it is smooth, faster and 3 days battery life!!!
I will try how long this holds...
