I miss my s3. It was my first smartphone and still my favorite. I loved the size, the shape, the fact that the battery was removable, even android was so much better back then.
I know I'm going to get shit on but I still like the s-series. I've gotten non s-series smart phones twice (the htc one and an unlocked Motorola something) and I hated my htc and was meh on the other. I've had the s3, s7, s10, s21, and now I have the s25. The s10 stopped connecting to the network when they upgraded the towers to 5g and shut off 3g and because of the carrier I'm on I would have had to jailbreak it to fix it. It was already 4 years old at that point so I just ugraded to the s21. I had that for 3 or 4 years until the internal antenna died and it stopped connecting to the cell towers. I'm hoping I get similar usage out of the s25, but I'm planning on my next phone being some cheap ass POS because it's all I'll be able to afford.
I'm only in my 30s. My dad supported our family on a high school education. I don't have a college education but I did two different certification programs to work in my field. I'm single with no kids and live alone and I'm still struggling. I don't know how anyone has a family right now. I can't even afford me. I'm so mad that my dad raised an entire family and bought and paid off a house and I can barely pay my damn rent and buy groceries with a better education and job than what he had.
