so, apple apparently will not replace the charging port in my phone, which is as good a sign as any that it's time for a new phone (my existing phone is Getting On in Years and often annoyingly sluggish, and i want to switch to mobile linux). currently i have $850 budgeted for a new phone; the main things i use my phone for are 1) web browsing, 2) tumblr, 3) signal/discord messaging, 4) listening to music, 5) gps navigation. i don't give a shit about making phone calls as long as the cellular data works. headphone jack a plus but lack of one is not a dealbreaker if bluetooth works reasonably well

THE CONTENDERS:

librem 5: the phone for privacy nuts. comes with pureos installed so i don't need to futz around with unlocking the bootloader. has a headphone jack. 3 GB memory, 32 GB storage which can be expanded with an SD card (vs. 256GB on my current phone, but i've got a lot of cloud storage through proton i could leverage more for photos, etc, and big-ass SD cards are getting cheaper all the time). price: $800

fairphone: the fairphone 5 doesn't ship to the US; the fairphone 4 does, but doesn't support verizon (my current carrier is us mobile but iirc it uses the verizon network). no headphone jack. seems to have good postmarketos/ubuntu touch/etc support. the fairphone 4 with 8 GB memory, 256 GB storage goes for $500 through murena

pinephone: i have heard nothing but terrible things about it so i didn't even bother to look up how much it costs

f(x)tec pro1 x: has a slidey keyboard and a headphone jack (yay!), but gets bad reviews on reddit for build quality. i'm unclear on the difference between the pro1 x and the earlier pro1. linux slightly less well-supported than on the fairphone, per the ubuntu touch devices guide; however, as a device for writing and reading fanfiction on the go, this kinda fucks. out of stock on the website but can be had off ebay for $600ish.

something else?

Por estas razones deberías comprar un iPhone 12 AHORA MISMO 🤯👉🏿 https://youtu.be/vITdbzliXmA

[greaseonmymouth]

I dropped my phone in yoghurt this morning which somehow messed up the touch screen even more than it was already messed up, which has rendered my phone functionally useless now. it's frustrating for many reasons (two factor authentication apps being useless when the touch screen won't let me type in my passwords) but what really bothers me the most is how often I keep picking up the phone to go scroll Tumblr or something else before realising that's not going to work. really highlighting how often I use my phone for mindless social media scrolling. it's not a good look on me.

but also. it's a brick. that still delivers me notifications but it is also a brick that, when I dare open an app, even if I carefully try to scroll the wonky touch screen will within one single swipe have activated five different buttons and composed a letter to satan
