Nokia owners (past and present): What how would you rate (out of 10) each of the phones you've used?

Seems like Nokia is on a binge to promote the 7.2 (if you're currently browsing IMDB...you might have seen them)...and I wondered what the community thinks about them.

I have yet to give one with Android as its OS....and I must say...the 7.2 is looking good (I haven't checked its dimensions yet...and am hoping if it's not one of those small form factor phones...at least it might have a 'mini' version --- just like Sony does with the Xperia).

Are you using a Nokia at the moment...because they'...

I don't get why this sub has such an aversion for any form screen intrusion.

I've even seen people advocating for the removal of the front facing camera. How can you support the removal of the front facing camera but not the headphone jack? Makes no sense to me....

I am not a fan of AR but I absolutely love Google Lens!

I of course speak from a personal point of view, but I am not a big fan of AR or VR, to me pretty much all AR or VR apps are useless and I don't really like how much effort Google and Apple are putting into making really what I feel like useless apps that will be used once and never again by most. I've tried a few measuring apps, but when it's anything serious I always use a physical measuring tape. I've also tried some pointless "place this cute creature on the table" apps and uninstalled them ...

Chrome and current state of scrolling

I feel strongly that Google needs to really improve scrolling on Chrome. On my current Pixel 4 XL on JavaScript heavy sites, especially on sites with embedded videos or ads, touch scrolling stutters way too much. As an example, go to engadget.com and scroll to the bottom. When you get to the embedded video at the bottom, Chrome starts to stutter and it looks especially bad on a 90hz display. Even when I swipe from the home screen to go left to the Google feed, you can see it scroll stuttering wh...

Do Android versions even matter anymore?

To be honest as an Android user, it just seems like every year and every update is just refinements nothing really groundbreaking and breath taking anymore


Like you could legit use a Nougat phone right now in almost 2020 and you probably wouldn't miss much except dark mode but there's fixes for that


Does anyone else feel this way? Do Android updates matter anymore to yall?...

What can do on an $800 Android that you can't on an $80 Android?

Obviously, the $800 device will have a better screen more memory better and/more camera (s) and a faster processor. Maybe it'll even have a finger print scanner or wireless charging or lack of a headphone jack. But those are all improvements on the same functionality in an $80 Android. What things can you do on a premium device that you can't on a basic one or is Android pretty much the same and just faster or newer on better devices?...

I feel like Android 10 UI has kind of taken a step backwords

I just upgraded from an LG v30 on Android 9 to Samsung s10e that was updated to Android 10. I'm aggressively demanding for a clean and minimal interface and there are so many little things added at every step. I don't know if this is an Android 10 or a one UI thing but I don't need these settings constantly present for every single fucking notification. I just wish we could have the granular control that Android is known for and I feel like every update it slowly degrades to a more "user friend...
