  • My GF had one. Battery was bad, normal consumer use OFC. Somewhere last year the play services security check changed. It was just invalidated by Google like 2 years after she bought it or something? Crazy.

    But the thing that killed it was Google purposefully downgrading the battery so it was almost literally unusable. Would just die at 50%. She got 50 USD back. Not worth it at all.

    I will take my bloated Samsung eith amazing hardware over Google’s piece of shit policy any day now. My phone is almost 5 years old and works without any issues. OS updates stopped but we have intermittent security updates this year.

    EDIT: I forgot to mention I spent literal over a hundred hours trying to fix a charging issue on the 4a that came with it which was a software bug. Worst I have ever experienced in tech actually.
