minus-square@0x2d@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglish23•edit-28 months agoI bought an unlocked pixel 7a because of lots of custom roms once it goes out of support It’s huge and doesn’t have a headphone jack or SD card slot but it’s very fast and has a good camera My dream phone would be: Unlocked bootloader Replaceable battery Small Expandable storage Good camera IR blaster Updates provided for a long time Stock Android Very durable
