Not sure if this is even worthy of a post, but I'm in the market for a new phone now and I only see Huawei, Google (specifically the Pixel, because you can't avoid Android really) and Apple on my boycott list. No gimmicky "privacy" phones (Librem etc), I need something fairly normie.
Recommend apps too if you have any suggestions, I use Microsoft everything currently.
Had very bad experiences with Samsungs so far. Had a few Motorolas, with hit and miss results. One is still with me from 5-6 years ago, one bricked after an Android update and one got stolen by a woman sitting behind me on a train. (No, really...I'm not kidding.) Never had a OnePlus so far.
