I still haven't made up my mind on which phone to buy even though I've been talking about it for almost a month. #1stWorldProblems
Samsung Galaxy S10e looks more appealing in terms of specs and price (more storage and SD card slot) compared to the Google Pixel 4 however the front facing camera is an eye sore. The front generally looks awful. Also Samsung's ROM is a bloated piece of trash and they barely release software updates.
The original Pixel started at Android 7.1 and ended at Android 10. With Samsung, you are luck to get a one Android update (which the S10e already got)
I've instantly unlocked it and installed LineageOS with Android Nein (10 is also available tho).
It has 8gb of ram so my stuff never unloads anymore. Battery life is a day of semi-active use, but I doubt you can find anything better. I kinda miss 3.5mm jack though.
@a1batross Looks kinda big. I'm looking at phones with Snapdragon 845 and up as mine current one has 835. 8GB RAM must be nice, the 3 I have works, but browser taps unloading is annoying.
I looked at Pixel but I've felt it's just TOO overpriced and battery is to small unless you're going to have the XL version.
@a1batross I would be going with the normal version, yeah, I feel the same way.
SDM845 is better than 835 but for me it's not the performance is best(especially in high-end levels) but the memory for multitasking. I don't really get why vendors are afraid to install more than 4 gigs for mid-level devices and 6 for high.
Can't say anything about Samsung though, I pretend this company doesn't exist.
@Starcake Exactly. That's what's appealing about Pixels.
I just realized Europe gets the shitty Exynos version of the S10e
