                        I am still using my Galaxy S9 plus which I bought last March 2018. Before this, my previous phone was the Xperia P which bought last December 2012. Although there were few months where I used a different phone before picking up my S9+ as my Xperia no longer operates. It's always the battery that causes my phone to die eventually.

                                They should make 6+ inch 16:9 phones like the first mi max, with thin bezels all around just enough to fit stereo front facing speakers, with 7000 mah battery and huge vapor chamber and aluminum back.

                                    My current phone is a Samsung Galaxy S10+ with exynos, 8/128 version black. I have had this phone for two years (still working well after 4 years of production) and I'm planning to switch to a S24+, as it has the same screen res as my S10+ and will be way better i think. I will surely miss the headphone jack (not that much since I have my brother's Note 20 Ultra headphones with Type-C which I use alongside 3.5mm jack earphones with my S10+) but not the microSD slot (it brought me trouble since my previous Galaxy Note 8, it deleted everything in the card as soon as I ejected it, which didn't happen with my previous-previous J6). I'm also considering the S23 Ultra, but I don't know if the S24 Ultra one will be any way better in terms of features so for now, I'm waiting for the S24 series announcement.

                                        Patiently waiting for the 16PM/16 Ultra, and if disappointed, will wait for the 17.
