So I had the galaxy S4… Up and away… I have used Galaxy S everything, iPhone Pro fuck the Max and I’m going to say as a U.S. buyer, they fucked 90+% of people. If you are calling, texting, emailing, playing 99% of games. I have a Pixel 9 Pro sitting on a shelf, that I don’t find reason to use. I use a phone that was $70 when I bought it, And it’s like 120 max now. I work in IT and have since 2011… most people are buying $800+ phones for no reason. Let’s get people in the practice of realizing a $200 phone, does everything a $1200 dollar phone does. Why pay 6x more for shit you honestly don’t need. Are my 50mp camera photos good, yeah. Are they as good as the latest flagship, no. But why should most users care. The memories is what most care about, not the pixels that show someone’s cheek had a mark on it with higher definition. It’s stupidity. We could save our families near $1000 a year by telling them it is ridiculous. Why because they buy a $1000 phone… every couple years… Why? $120 can do it the same. Prove me wrong. Save them 1050+ a year … With a phone that does everything they want

The G Play 2024 didn’t have 5g and people say that’s significant. I got the G Stylus 2023 which was $250 at the time, so I’d consider it midrange. It’s fine, I don’t need a fancier phone. NTN (non terrestrial network i.e. satellite) text comms is the next interesting feature. Currently only in flagships so I can wait for it to reach budget phones.
