I'm on year 3 of the Pixel 2 XL and I still like it. The battery is becoming less reliable by the day, but the phone still performs well. Was looking at upgrading to an iPhone (gasp!!), but I hate paying full price for a premier phone especially when we're likely upgrading 2 phones at once.
You probably don't have to. For one: If you're military or a veteran you can get a direct-from-Apple discount. And they take trade-ins even of some competing products. There's also Apple's refurbished devices, sold directly by Apple. Lastly: There's Swappa. I bought my wife's first iPhone and my first Apple Watch off Swappa. My wife's phone was essentially BNIB. My watch was LNIB. Both her phone and my watch still had a year left on their Apple warranties.Was looking at upgrading to an iPhone (gasp!!), but I hate paying full price for a premier phone especially when we're likely upgrading 2 phones at once.
What's wrong with Samsung mobile devices? I'm on the iPhone standard so nothing outside of curiousity.We moved to iThings four years ago... hah... four years ago tomorrow, looks like , so I cannot say for sure, except I would look at whatever yields the most un-polluted Android experience (probably Pixel) and you couldn't pay me to use a Samsung mobile device.

The 5 is an amazing upgrade from the 4. You won't miss it.I've had nothing but love for my pixel 4 for the past 1.5 years, but seems to have bricked this morning.
In short: IMO Samsung has execrable privacy policies, has a horrible track record wrt device security, and they mangle the Android platform. They make great hardware (except for their appliances--run away from those as fast as you can), but, IMO, pretty much everything else about them is terrible.What's wrong with Samsung mobile devices?

I had the opposite experience with Samsung. I briefly tried the Note 10. The reviews of the camera were great, so I decided to try it out on a trip overseas. I returned the phone as soon as I got home. The image quality was terrible. It was over processed garbage that looked good on the phone, but upon closer inspection it was riddled with noise reduction that almost looked as if it had been water-painted.I have the Galaxy S10+ but am looking at the 21 to upgrade soon. Camera looks awesome. That being said I used my phone exclusively for honeymoon pics last year in Hawaii and the quality is great.
Can't judge the brand from one bad experience!I had the opposite experience with Samsung. I briefly tried the Note 10.

I'm guessing the S10+ uses different software, but I'll never touch a Samsung phone again
Ugh. This has kept me from pulling the trigger too. Even it's the same brand and platform, it takes days of this before it's stops constantly pissing me off.Ugh, really could not wait even a day or two for a new phone, so ended up with a galaxy S20 FE 5G as a placeholder since it was on sale. already regretting it.
hate everything about setting up a new phone, been downloading crap from the cloud, doing system updates and changing settings for hours just to make it functional.
