I just upgraded to a fairphone 6 with e/os preinstalled after holding on to my LG G6 for at least 7 years. The thing that finally pushed me to upgrade was the camera, which was fine in 2019 but now is such a potato. Also the battery life was ass, the usbc port was super loose, and the micro sd card slot was broken so I was perpetually almost out of storage.
How are you liking it? I’ve never heard of e/os before, it looks neat. How does it compare to lineage/ graphene?
My camera is still great and still better than my partner’s newer iphone’s. No port wobble yet thankfully and I’ve never used an sd card anyway. This Note 8 is still great in every way so I have no reason to upgrade yet. I want to make it to 10 years at least.
With e/os will updates eventually stop due to your phones hardware? Or can you keep updating perpetually? What I hate is being forced to upgrade a perfectly working phone because someone decided not to allow updates on it anymore and the app rot that follows.
I haven’t used a rom this phone yet because I’m very attached to the stylus as I use this as my art tablet… so that’s the main holdout reason I have.
