it's kinda sad for me because i was gonna get a oneplus 15 in the near future but with this i'd rather not.
does anyone have any phone advice for this kind of price segment?
i've been losing my mind looking at all the different kinds of phones and accessories and things to the point of seriously considering getting an iphone
Nothing Phones seem promising. Although their models make no sense. They have main phones, mid phones, budget phones, and then a whole sub brand called cmf that has ITS OWN phone hierarchy.
At the very least they are different and trying new things.
I do a Motorola with LineageOS. I'll probably upgrade to a new Motorola when they are compatible with Graphene
When is that gonna come out?
They announced it back in March, and there's no date yet. We just have "as soon as 2027"
From someone who has the OP15. It's a great device if you like to tinker and install degoogled version. Even using lineage or other roms with gapps, we have wallet working with full play certification. And the dev community is active around it. So I still recommend it. Just note the camera is acceptable for the tier, just not great. The battery/performance on the other hand is fantastic.
Any recommendations for any specific roms? I've only seen an unofficial port of lineage OS (https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-unofficial-lineageos-23-for-oneplus-15.4785437/)
Unfortunately most of the dev community is on Telegram. You can find the link in the Superflasher xda thread.
I was recently shopping for a phone too, OP15 was a contender. Originally wanted to grab the OP12 for it's camera and price but I missed the train. OP15 was tempting but expensive so I held off. Samsung Ultra are all overpriced and stagnated.
I eventually gave up on my hard requirements of 512GB storage and better battery life and bought a used Samsung Ultra for 800 CAD. Battery is disappointing as expected, but it does everything just as good as a new Ultra seeing as they haven't updated any specs outside CPU power in 5 years.
Am I happy with the market state? No. Am I happy with the phone? Yes.
