In August he claimed he was going to get a new phone soon:

A month later he was still definitely totally getting that new phone:

Oh yeah but now, 11 months later, Google shows he currently still has the same phone (S10). If he got a new phone model this page would reflect it.

Why would Patrick lie about getting a new phone? Why is his phone so old? He lives his entire life on it, why does he still have the same shitty old phone? Can he not afford a nice new one? Weird...

I have a galaxy S8+ still because I use it to browse here and make calls. Maybe I'm too much of a boomer to understand why people upgrade so often.
It's a ploy. Planned obsolescence. Apple created it, now everyone emulates it. Keep releasing "new, updated" models of the phone at regular intervals so that consumers will be tricked into feeling the need to keep upgrading to the latest model to avoid public scrutiny of having "an outdated model".

Samsung Galaxies are complete pieces of shit. My job gave me one and its a useless piece of shit that I only use for mobile data tethering.

People love them but I abandoned my iPhone and bought a galaxy S6 when they just came out and hated that phone so much that it pushed me back into the Apple ecosystem. I hated all the preinstalled software that came with the Verizon version and there were apps you couldn't uninstall just 'disable'. Annoying shit like that. I don't need 5 apps for texting, what is that shit? It also started draining battery super fast after a year or two and I just said fuck it and bought an iPhone 8 Plus. I just finally upgraded to an iPhone 12 and it's great. I know Apple is gay but their devices are nice and easy to use without any nonsense.

There's some nice chinkphones like the Redmi which have insane battery life and simple UI and don't come preinstalled with a bunch of bloatware (ironically for a chinkphone)

Planned obsolescence has been around way before Apple. It’s (((their))) creation. They purposefully made the filaments in lightbulbs fail.
pretty much everything has it. They could design cars to last etc

Yeah, I'm a big fan of the DOOGEE Ruggedphones; you get a top-tier Android which is waterproof with long battery, dual sim, etc. They look ok too. Fuck paying for branding, especially with Android. At least apple actually do something different, I'm just not a hipster-douche who likes spending money on rapidly depreciation accoutrements.

I would gladly buy a Chinese phone as long as it was cheap and competed with iPhones and Samsung. Who gives a shit.

galaxy phones are crap and over priced. As people have mentioned off brand Chinese crap can compete with those phones on every day tasks but when you are tweeting as much as fatty cakes is you need one of the top tier phones of yesteryear.

Hmmm, phone doesn't look that bad.

As long as it works here in Poland, I might buy this myself.
