Cool thanks for the info I’m thinking to get a travel phone with this os on it. Maybe a used pixel 7 or 8

No government can be trusted.

To you know if wechat or alipay work? I need these while traveling. They use QR codes for payment and other services. I wish this took off everywhere as nfc payments are locked into only a few apps.

Ok. I had some weird feeling like the us version of the phone won’t work overseas

They have folding phones that’s are smallish

I’m mostly in the States, but i travel to Asia, will it work there? I’m on fi.

Dvd video on a cell phone looks great

The issue with blurays are the unskippable intros before the menu hits

This is true. Spending more for newer A series vs used “higher” end older models is up the how the phone is used daily.

The A Series is like the Nissan Sentra of phones in my opinion.

Yeah, same. I have considered a watch to solve this, but not sure.

At 299 or 399, but at 499?? That’s a hard pass. You can get a used pixel for less and better specs. I get it that people like new, but phone innovation has mostly stalled.

You can get a new battery for an older phone installed. I’m just saying this is getting like the car market where buying used is the value leader.

I picked up a used 8 pro 256 and it’s fantastic. I like the older camera bar design and spent less over the 10a

I think they should drop the a series. The used phone market can fill the gap.

I will investigate this, thanks.

Ok. I’m a heavy user of nfc payments, so I’m stuck right now.

Nice. Did you relock the bootloader after loading?

Get a box of cds at a garage sale.

I also want to look into the exit node stuff.
