@grumpyoldaf nope, not tired of android itself. Tired of the cheap android phone from a no name chinese brand that has some fuckedup android (preinstalled apps, you can't delete that don't really work, own "powersaving" app, which tends to simply block push notifications oh and you can't uninstall it of course, etc.) on it and poor build quality overall.

@lastNick mainly an user. I played some with flutter and might play some more in the future but no real plans to go on android development.

@alexThunder would habe been an option, however since Google doesn't shit to Switzerland there aren't many second hand options here...

Dat size difference. OnePlus 6 vs Nokia 3510
Fuck this dieing pice of cheap chinese android crap. Sure it was anly 250 bucks, but holy hell... I could deal with the software side... Android 6 isn't the newest but eh...
But now the fucking hardware is failing too... To be more precise the buttons seam to randomly fire, which is really fucking annoying. Sometimes when both back and the other button fire the touch screen even joins the party of triggering touches in the right upper corner... Why the fuck ever.
Just ordered a pixel 3a, your days are counted fucking piece of trash!
Had to order the new one to a mailbox in germany though, as google doesn't ship them to switzerland (and the few retailers who import them charge like 130 bucks more, so paying the 5€ pickup fee will be a lot cheaper...)
