Let’s see, Xiaomi, Huawei, Vivo, Lenovo.
Vuvuzela 200 Gorillion dead no iphon
The first portable cell phone was built by a Soviet radio engineer…
My Huawei is the best phone I’ve ever had. Three years and going strong. The rest didn’t make it a full year.
Yea. I wish they didn’t ditch the jack for god’s sake.
Huawei is banned in Canada RIP
Huawei spun off Honor which is basically the same thing but with no sanctions, xiaomi is pretty good too.

You forgot my favorites: PinePhone and PinePhone Pro
when can we get a phone with an intel-based soc
I’ll pass on the Intel-based backdoors.
well, maybe devs should start hitting the “Compile for ARM” button a bit more frequently
Or the devs should start releasing the source code so that you can just compile for ARM yourself.
Many proprietary (and some open source) programs are still non-portable, which is incredibly annoying considering how easy modern languages and tooling make writing portable code.
Likely never. x86 is an incredibly inefficient architecture and requires a lot more energy for the same compute power, which means you’ll get almost no battery life. x86 CPUs also produce more heat and have to be physically larger than their ARM equivalents in order to provide all the extra circuitry for x86’s CISC instructions. Honestly, I wouldn’t want them in my computer, let alone my phone.
tbf i want to see a year where we get high-performance SBCs
High performance in terms of what? It’s not like HEDT levels of power but the latest RK3588S looks really promising in terms of SBC type computing. Architecture aside there’s only so much power you can put into an SBC platform, and performance gains at the high end are increasingly coming from increasing power limits.
I have an RK3588 machine (Radxa Rock 5B), and I can confirm, it’s very powerful. That thing beats all 12 of my other SBCs easily. It also has more I/O, including an M.2 slot that can run a PCIe 3.0 NVMe drive at full speed.
i want to see a time when a phone can do daunting tasks without lag
