Internet is so dumb. My current package is up, and an "upgrade" and a new plan means I spend $80 more a month. Unreal.

That works up until the "plus" series was introduced. Nobody bought an iPhone 6 & 6 Plus or a 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max.

I've had 3G, 4, 5, 6, 8 Plus. 3G to 4 felt like a leap. 6 to 8 Plus felt like a leap due to the size. I'm guessing 8 Plus to whatever I get will feel like a leap since it's been 3 years and it'll be a new design without the home button.

My wife has an iPhone 6, which is my old one (I went from a 4S to the 6).

Other than the camera, is there really a reason to go the Pro Max over the base 12 model?

Any Pixel users? Been thinking about the 4a with 5g. I need a phone for a camera and email/web sort of thing. Not a big app user.

I had the OG Pixel, and have a Pixel 3 now... never had any issues. Much prefer Droid's to Iphones in general, but even without that... they have been solid devices for me.

I want to go back to the larger size phone.

I went from a Galaxy3, to an LG V10, to a Pixel2. After 2 years with the LG, I wanted to return to a normal sized phone, but I think when the time comes to upgrade (which I don't see happening any time soon) I will probably go back to a larger device.

I have a Pixel 3a. It's not as polished as the Samsung Galaxy line, but it's good enough to recommend. Luckily Google Fi just started selling Samsungs directly so I might be able to migrate back when the time comes.

I like my Pixel 3. Works well for what I need it for, battery is decent at two years old as well.

I signed up for ESPN+ last month because we accidentally forgot to DVR a Serena match and the replay was only available there. Well, of course I'm a dumb ass and forgot to turn off the auto-renew so I got a fresh new $6 charge this month. That's how those sons of dodints get you.

By the way, unless you're a big soccer fan, ESPN+ is **** useless.

It's great for a MACtion fan when MACtion is happening.

I already have the ACC Network on DirecTV and who the hell watches MAC? I went to a MAC school and only ever went to the football games to watch the band and leave after halftime.

OU. The Marching 110 was worth the price of admission. The football team was not.

YouTube still having zero support for surround sound in 2020 is a **** joke.
