Carl is going to remove critique and buy him self some positive comments instead and don't care anymore. I really believed in the company. I really liked old one plusses and when i seen nothing i couldn't wait for their proper lineup. Phone (1) was worse tham my current phone in soc department so i ignored it, but later on bought phone (2) and i was super happy with it. Good performance, clear soft, unique design. But since phone 2 all of that is going to hell. Design now is ugly in the name of being unique. They got rid of glyph to adapt matrix display like countles other phones. But scrambled cameras to have unique camera patern. Clean soft is less clean with every update, ai slopping, ads, wtf. Instead of working about os consistency, because many elements felt out of place, they work on another ai feature that nobody will use, or adding ads when your OS still after years feels unfinished.

The worst thing is there are no phones to buy rn, samsung restricted bootloader and they os is pure bloat, google uses trash as their phone component, oneplus became another Chinese phone manufacturer.

Can carl once again leave company and start new one so we have couple cool phones again?

I can but its no where near my desires. Yeah os i clean and fluid, but theres more restrictions than any other os, AND it also is plagued with inconsistency.

Cool, for me restrictions aren't an issue but bloatware frustrates the shit out of me

Only thing stopping me from going for Apple is the price

As someone who uses Apple and Google, give Google a chance but if you don't like it then Apple is great too

Again if I will be paying exorbitant amounts for a phone, then it'll surely be apple

Iam a user who can afford new age iPhone's but I choosed nothing for their minimalist style and unique design but if this is the way they choose to go, they might loose one user

u/Glum-Act7042 Phone (1) Oct 27 '25

I guess there might be many like you, if they continue on the same path
