Wouldn't it be better if Android OS and phones were designed to last longer?

Instead of a new OS every year that makes older ones obsolete, it would be nice if the OS itself was highly customisable so you can install whatever updates. That way Android OS can last 5+ years.

For example I have Windows 8 which is a 8 year old OS and I haven't updated it in years but I can still run pretty much any modern software out there.

It would be nice if phones became like desktops in the sense that people replace them every 5-10 years than every 2 years.

Also on the hardware sid...

i know this can never be possible in this consumer centric market but phones should adopt the videogame consoles release model

releasing a phone ever year is completely unnecessary and a big waste. ideally phones should be like the PlayStation where one model gets released every few years.

the thing is, people rarely buy a new phone every year anyway, the average buyer keeps it for at least a couple.

the way it works is that this year the majority of people who will buy a new phone will be the ones who have last bought one 2 or 3 years ago, next year will be people who bought it 1 or 2 years ago and so on.

Re: Would you prefer if phones were thicker?

Yesterday there was a post [Would you prefer if phones were thicker?](https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/j8k7xt/would_you_prefer_if_phones_were_thicker/) A lot of people stated that they would prefer a thicker phone. I think I have the phone for you.

A month ago my Galaxy S20's antenna broke somehow due to getting it wet in the rain. I went deep into the dumbphone world as I didn't use most of the features a smartphone provided. I ordered a [LightPhone II](https://www.thelightphone.com/)...

The FE 5G is a killer phone

Cracked my s10+ and decided to trade it in for this bad boy. No regrets. This 120hz screen is extremely noticeable and makes the UI experience 10x better than the 10+. It has wifi6, 5g, bigger battery, and a faster SD card port. It supports faster charging than the 10+ and the fingerprint scanner works better, imo. They also added this glow to the scanner that doesn't appear on the 10+ which doesn't do anything but looks cool.

The screen on time is worse than the 10+ when new. I was getting a...

Who will be the first Android manufacturer to remove Charging adpater since the new iPhones don't come with anymore?

My guess is the next pixel phones will follow the suit. Later on OnePlus lastly Samsung will follow trend just like the roadmap of removal of headphone jack....

It kinda feels like the smartphone market is stagnating and becoming deadbeat as of recent.

Phone prices are going up and less innovation is happening, Android manufacturers don't really know what they're doing, Google is making questionable decisions and Apple is nickel-and-diming their customers again. I don't really care about the flagship stuff and the "latest and greatest," Once my XR bites the dust then I'm looking for whatever sub-$500 phone with a good camera fits my use case....

[Opinion] Android and phone manufactures are shooting themselves in the foot.

I think it is obvious from threads like this [1-5] that customers are not happy. In the top 25 posts in /r/Android, a quarter of the posts are complaining about prices.

I've personally felt immense frustration at seeing the direction of Google, Android, and other phone manufacturers. I won't make this a rant though, since I know a lot of people either already feel this way or are tired about reading this. Instead, I want to use this post to have a discussion about what we as a community (custom...
