    My favorite phone I’ve ever had was an LG. I had two easily switchable batteries for it and an external charger. It had an SD card slot and a headphone jack. It did everything I needed it to do, and it had very little bloatware. Hell, it’s over decade old or something, and it still works just fine. In fact, last time I used it, the battery lasted longer than ever since it doesn’t have a SIM card anymore, I rooted it and removed every unnecessary app, and it spends all its time in flight mode occasionally playing MP3s. I’ve no doubt if I fired it up tomorrow, it’d still work, though Google would certainly complain that it hasn’t been updated 8 bajillion times in the interim. Every phone I’ve had since then (Google Nexus 6P, Samsung Galaxy Note 9, and now an S23 Ultra) has had a better camera, a little bigger screen resolution, and was worse in just about every other way.

      I’m still on an old ass LG because there is nothing that isnt a massive downgrade in functionality.
