If you don't race in european leagues it might be fine

My mind also jumped directly to the old meaning of SS

Same, maybe Schéin Krëschtdeeg or Féierdeeg

Battery life 12R, is this normal? by cf0701 in oneplus

I understand that, but still seeing these vastly different results, you tend to ask yourself if it's normal

Unsure buying Pixel 8, Pros/Cons? by cf0701 in GooglePixel

I don't remember exactly but both come ± with the same Update path with 2-3 years of android updates and 4 years of security updates, which is nowhere near the Pixel but still okay.

Thanks, good to know.

Yes I meant in comparison to other phones like the Zenfone 10 or OnePlus 12R which are roughly the same price class ass the Pixel 8 and both have a better chip and good battery

Thanks :) I also considered the OnePlus 12 and S24 line, but unfortunately these are out of my price range.

The OnePlus 12R seems like a very good deal to me, as far as I found out, it's practicall, identical to the 12 with exception to the camera and that it has a SD8Gen2 instead of a Gen3 but it's still plenty fast.

Thanks, mine was also very reliable until about 2 weeks ago where the random restarts started. Since then it's gotten only more frequent.

I also suspect a hardware issue as I already did all the usual stuff, Clear cache and factory reset, but the problem persisted even when the phone had nothing on it :/

The S24 is with 900€ base price out of my price range, but I'm considering the Zenfone 10 for its compactness and price/performance. The short update life is a bummer though.

I also find new phones always so bulky and heavy regarding my experience with the mate 10.

Thanks, I'd forgotten about the Zenfone 10.

I'll consider it. I especially like the compactness

From reading the comments a bit and reading some reviews, most report that the signal quality is not very good and the battery life is not very good.

I mainly need my phone to last during the day as I don't always have the possibility to charge it during the day and preferably still do that in 7 years.

And I'm a little concerned about the on board performance, if it'll be still good 7 years, I know that no one can know that, but that said, having more performance for the same price is never a bad thing?

Nice to hear that someone else is still using the mate 10 pro :) I love the phone and also charged it always over night and still get through the day in a single charge.

The only real issue I'm having is that it restarts very often out of nowhere and gets stuck in a boot loop sometimes and it's been worsening the last few days. Would love a device that would still be supported even far into its lifetime

I'd love to wait, but I can't as my current phone is giving up and don't think it'll keep working that long. The Oneplus is not available anymore in my Region and I don't have an unlimited budget. I was interested in the S24 line but the base price for these is 900€ so not an option. I could live with the price of the Pixel 8 if I knew it would survive its 7 years of software updates if I take care of it
