Hmm. That’s weird. Me, my mom and my dad all have the same phone. I try to keep them on whatever I’m on to make trouble shooting over the phone easier when they call me with problems. Both of them report laggyness, too.

I should clarify, until recently, I’ve been used to higher end phones. The note series and whatever flagship LG was rocking when I was off the notes. Maybe I’m just spoiled?
It’s been a while since I had the phone, but iirc it would drop wifi constantly, Bluetooth would occasionally and randomly cause the phone to seize up and you had to do a hard reset, you could only have a Bluetooth device connected to it alone, if the device was also connected to something else no audio would play from either device (I think that had a work arojnd in dev option, but i dont recall what it was), the screen would go unresponsive if you had youtube playing in background mode, and a handful of other things.
Most of them were worth it just for the Hold For Me feature, though. Lol. God I miss that.
I switched from a pixel 6 to an A53. I lease my phones through T-Mobile with jump on demand, so I can switch pretty often if I want to (I hate doing it. I like finding a decent phone and sticking to it), and I’m thinking about switching again. The A53 is super laggy, and it crashes frequently, as well as a weird thing with WiFi becoming super slow unless I restart
Any idea if the 54 is better? I’d like to stick to Samsung if possible, because I have a Samsung tablet and they work well together. I really miss LG. :(
I had the pixel 6. Is the 7/7a less glitchy? There were constant weird issues with the 6. Which, tbh, I could mostly get past. The reason I swapped out was because of lack of HDMI support. I can’t always use Chromecast, and I like being able to mirror my screen to a monitor I have on my sewing table.
Not who you asked, but I use podbean and have recently started using antennapod. Both are really good, but antennapod is open source from what I understand, and I’ve been able to find more podcasts on it. Only gripes with it are that you can’t rate the podcasts on it, and you can’t set it play all episodes of a certain podcast automatically. You have to add them to a queue manually and play from the queue. Other than that it’s absolutely fantastic.
