You could buy last year’s flagship or refurbished. Security updates would be the main reason to upgrade.

Who says you are getting worse battery life? You get nearly twice as much battery life with oneplus 15 compared to S25 Ultra. Also a full charge takes 40 mins to vs 1hr 28mins on the S25 Ultra.

But, we do see bigger battery phones outside china. Oneplus 15 has 7400mAh battery for example. Others like Iqoo, oppo, vivo, poco also provide large battery phones worldwide.

The contributors to the revanced project had a fallout. That’s why forked.

Revanced has not been updated for a while. Try Morphe. Its a fork of revanced which is updated frequently and has a newer youtube version to boot.

The collapsible sidebar is a relic of ancient times. I don’t think making the icon car pill shaped is necessarily the same as liquid glass.
Its not liquid glass but is similar and inspired by Apple’s design language.
They should’ve made the layout sleek so it felt more modern.
Personally, they should’ve went all in or used android’s Material Expressive themes. Telegram’s current design is not that good.

As someone who likes blur design and liquid glass. Its cool.
I checked and my client has this UI. But, the blur is so opaque I did not notice the blur even though I have been on the redesign for a while.

This is absolutely not a task for LLM. They fumble so often you may brick the device or have critical features not work when needed the most. Not to mention any security issues that may arise depending on stuff done by LLM which may make things up.

Samsung phones with OneUI 8 and higher do not support bootloader unlock. Its simply not doable.

They deliberately choose to ship a device with an outdated OS. Plus, only promise 2yrs of security updates in other regions except EU which will get 5yrs of security updates.
- limerod@reddthat.comMtoAndroid@lemdro.id•Motorola promises zero Android OS upgrades for its latest budget phones, ships with Android 15English9·1 month ago
They promise to provide security in EU for 5yrs. Every other region will get 2yrs of security updates. This is a deliberate attempt at keeping the device less secure and sustainable.
- limerod@reddthat.comMtoAndroid@lemdro.id•Motorola promises zero Android OS upgrades for its latest budget phones, ships with Android 15English3·1 month ago
Its not that they block updates. They simply do not bother to release in other regions. Even though the development time and money used would be minimal at best.
I would like to recommend Motorola. Unfortunately, I cannot. Samsung, oneplus and others will remain a good option.

Nothing except the features which are not implemented. You can choose to keep the original as backup if desired.

- limerod@reddthat.comMtoAndroid@lemdro.id•Samsung Galaxy A56 5G review: Great price, but the competition is betterEnglish2·1 month ago
The A56 does not have a micro sdcard slot like the A55. The processor is mediocre at best. In the past the sdcard justified average. Now, it has nothing. Like the reviewer said you are better off getting something else like the S25 FE or even the S24 FE. This phone has literally no merit.
The X post appears to be just a promo post. It does not actually confirm anything. The official store listing still says 3+4 Updates. Could be lazy copy paste from marketing.
Hopefully, that’s not the case.
