So, I thought I’d kick things off here with some community building.

Quote this post with answers to the below!

What phone are you using?

Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities?

Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot?

How often do you upgrade to a new phone?

What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc.

Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.)

    What phone are you using? POCO F3

    Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities? Works and does everything i need, the camera is decent so i am happy about that.

    Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot? Hard to remember, however I will never forget my old OnePlus One… basically started this whole path of Android customization I took.

    How often do you upgrade to a new phone? Honestly whenever my old one dies. I am not rich and phones are quite costly these days.

    What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc. Just my phone

    Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.) Just my phone, however I do have a server at home running Debian 12 and my desktop running Windows 11

      Are you experiencing any noticeable battery drain? It’s driving me crazy. Like i get that it’s a 120hz display but it has no right to draw this much power

            Just to give you a bit more info. I am on 20% right now, with 7hrs 3 mins of screen on time. 1 day, 9hrs and 48 mins phone idle. not charging in between.

            Before installing my current system I would be lucky to get the day, i would charge my phone every night.

            microG has been a blessing, for me everything works (signal, whatsapp, banking apps) just as if i had gapps installed and the battery lasts roughly double.
