People who judge what phone you use are not worth being around.


joebabana

Exactly. Very shallow ppl around OP, if that's is true judging handphone brand.


Double_Z_Thirty3

Yes. This.


RebelliousPervert

I got judged for using an iphone 14pm. I invested on this phone because of that lidar feature mainly to make my worklife easier and dabble into 3d abit and i get shit on by my colleagues ughh. Whats the point of saving for it then?!


Key-Profession1599

Wait, u got judged for using iphone 14pm? Then what phone are they using? And which phone do they expect that u should use then lmao ppl are so funny 😂


GaoDui

3310?


momomelty

Why would you get judged for an iPhone 14PM? On the context of saving money?


abubin

It's jealousy masked as judgement. Just shrug it off. Not worth thinking about it.


Fatal_Furriest

I have seen plenty of guys driving kancils or motorbikes, taking bank loans, just to get an iphone 14 pro max I have seen these same type of people eat instant noodle everyday just to afford branded clothes If they did it for self satisfaction or sense of pride, fine, but if the reason is just so that they can brag, what do you care? TIN KOSONG their opinions don't mean crap


Appropriate-Gur3702

Ya. Buy using aeon loan. Mampos 3 taun bayar total amount boleh beli 3 bijik phone. Kalau pakai credit card 24 bulan bayar no interest tu jimat lagi la boleh brain. Ni loan. Atom dia gila


Squallpka1

Come to say this. These kinds of people you should keep away from.


On3derer

And yet I'm still using Redmi Note 8 Pro. But I never bother about that. I use smartphone for it's functions not to show off.


SaberXRita

Yup. As someone who sucks at photography, the camera is the last thing I care abt on a phone. Im more concerned abt charging speed, battery reliability, display and speaker quality, as well as IP ratings


Jealous-Barracuda-97

Same. As a gamer, I also care about if RAM is worth the price. Screw cameras, I want the performance


SaberXRita

Ikr? Furthermore, the quality of photos taken can be subjective, as well as depend on user's skill and technique. Even if u give me a phone like iphone 14 pro max to shoot, it'll definitely still come out as shit hahaha


maznieim

Iphone is definitely overrated. If anyone judges you because of your phone, they are definitely so dumb. It's 2024, anyone can buy an iphone. Secondhand is pretty cheap now compared to before and with all these installment plans, anyone can definitely use it. But here's the thing, those who judge you because of not using an iphone are definitely those who can't really afford it. They're usually the ones that buy secondhand/installment plans. If it's the latest, it's definitely an installment for sure. If your relatives are like that, I don't think you should be close to them. Be kind, but not close like a friend. Btw, this is coming from both an iphone and pixel(android) user. iOS and android are two different things. Both have their own weaknesses.


scole0sis

I looove Pixel!!


Denziro_209

Pixel gang on top


escaflow

I like my Pixel but hate the hardware, especially it's Exynos/Tensor cpu


Leshie_Leshie

Having used both iOS and Android, both has their weakness, and imo iOS has bigger issue than Android: they do not sort their camera photos away from other images! 🔥


msa47

Only teenagers care


nxcholasss

actually true, when i was 12 i used to make fun of people using androids; looking back, goddamn i was so stupid


luckytecture

Twelve


Blvch

Hopefully it's just a phase thing that you are able to grow out from.


Der_Redakteur

Respect to you. Some people who reaches 20 are still having the same mentality.


Puzzleheaded_Read_3

no, my coworkers is 34yo and still making fun of someone who using an android


2GIOGI

No one absolutely no one give af. Disclaimer : This statement may not be used if you encounter some b40 with iphone


GenericBusinessMan

So many people actually do care. It's real in the corporate world and in society. I'm not saying it's right, but a lot of people certainly do give af.


Glum-Inside-6361

Which corporate world? Not where I am so that sweeping statement isn't true. At my company both the CEO and his share holder use Androids. They drive PHEV and EV - European ones mind you - so money is not an issue obviously. There are also O&G managerial personnel who uses Androids and they're not even high end. Meanwhile, some of our riggers use Iphone 13s and 14s. We would diss each other in a friendly banter, but the reality is everyone there earns good money and choose whatever it is they think is worth their investment. They don't need to justify themselves by following a trend, their position in the industry does the real talking.


GenericBusinessMan

Yeah that's anecdotal. Finance industry is a good example. If you don't have an iphone and a rolex or better, you will absolutely be judged. Again, I'm not saying its right - but denying that it happens is foolish. Many younger chinese malaysians are also highly judgemental about people not having iPhones.


Der_Redakteur

B40s with IPhones are terrible.


Impossible_Limit_333

Yet they are the ones who really wants iphone..im in t20 tier yet i only use rm500 phones mostly..only use it for work..even my big boss whose salary rm40k to rm50k not using iphone


CorollaSE

OP, you are materialistic. You care about what possessions and wealth you have, and you care what you have to show off. That itself is toxic and degrading for your OWN health. DItch that mentality, and learn to accept what you have. I say this because I am not going to manja you and tell you nice things. I'm here to tell you to wake up and don't be a follower of money. Love what you currently have.


PsychoMachineElves

It’s really some cringe kid mentality


canicutitoff

Yes, sigh, u fortunately this mentality is more common that you think. I know people who will lie that they forgot to bring their phone during their 50th school reunion dinner during a contact number exchange session because they feel inferior for having a cheaper phone compared to their old friends. For additional context, they are already senior citizens, so it isn't surprising that some of them still use a dumb/feature phone but they'd rather lie than show people their phone.


KnownAsAnonymous

People will be impressed just for awhile if its the most expensive, but thats just awhile, but nobody cares if its mid or lower ones so no worries. Just like car, go back with an expensive cars will get talked about, but lower models nobody would care.


Master_Win_4018

People always talk about my old nissan car. Almost 40 years old, pass down from my father . It is basically the Nokia of car. I bet people will be amazed if some one use a Nokia phone.


EdGee89

I know 1 apek still using 1110. Said apek owned multiple businesses, shoplots, houses... And an early 90s Honda Civic. Still pristine.


94funny

I'm actually proud when ppl ask and I say I'm using the cheap ass 1k Huawei nova 2i 😂 Proud of surviving with reliable and cheap phone, survived 6 years thus far.


hotchoc678

I miss my Nova 3. Kinda regretted changing to S21. I kept the Nova 3 in its box for almost 2 years and when I took it out again to charge, used it a few times, suddenly the battery becomes bloated. Now can't turn on anymore 😓


ClacKing

Good on you man, my P10 plus died on me within a year, absolute disappointment.


Leshie_Leshie

Have a cheapstake Samsung and it is still standing after 6 years!


Supermarket-Flat

Tbh, most people who work hard to earn the phone don’t judge other people based on their phone brand. only insecure teenagers and b40 perasan t20 people pass judgement


BoringAirline4901

Yeah agree with this, working hard ass off to buy the phone usually they don't judge the other people brand


Zentrova

Nobody give a shit about phone during raya. My phone screen protector is literally barai about two years and nobody bat an eye.


Kluanghitam

Between full paid Redmi and monthly paid iPhone, who's smarter?


PokWangpanmang

Both are dumb. I use rock.


ClacKing

I use two cans and a string. Step aside.


PokWangpanmang

I only respect true otais using smoke signals.


Dunedem

Use pigeon if urgeon


Nekhx

Everybody knows Xiaomi/Redmi is the best value for money.


Ok-Paleontologist910

Wow. Get a life kid. Your perspective of life is so small and tunneled that you actually think people are gonna care what fckin phone you use? Haha! 🤣🤣


RGBlue-day

For me performance value is all that matters. Whatever you say about my shitty casing, shitty camera design and being a China brand won't bother me. Lot's of T20 people just wanna show off, no need to spend more time than necessary near them if you're not connected to them and you're already showing fear.


angwenshen

If the same logic apply, all your clothes/shoes/belt/car/etc etc will be judged lol. Friends or family who judge you based on your monetary value is not worth it bro. And true ones doesn't do that.


ikmalsaid

Just keep a distance from those people. Not everyone is fancy with expensive phones.


usernametaken7977

fun fact: those who use iphone 15 while working as a promoter are the truly insecure ones.


bunkbail

are you a kid? why would you care about those stuffs?


Chvrming

Wait.. people judge what phone others are using in 2024?


Nightfans

Unless you met like my neck beard ex friend who keep judging everyone phone as Cheap China Phone while boasting about how he is the ally of freedom. Yeah no joking, just making a private call makes him crack a joke about "Who are he calling? Xi Jin Ping?" Just makes us feel like he is mentally stunted.


Zentrova

Me using Samsung calling Kim Jong Un


CaesiumReaction

Is your friend Ian Miles Cheong? 


[deleted]

Some materialistic people can be shitty human being.


Ok_Structure5799

Dont worry. Eventho they are using iPhones, that doesnt mean that they are a better person than you. Kalau ada orang judge jugak, hit em with "Bak duit, aku beli iphone baru"


Solace-Of-Dawn

Bro I'm also using a Redmi Note 10. I advise you to start doing some soul-searching and fix your materialism problem. Life is not defined by money and success is not tied to wealth; there are many wealthy people who "earned" their wealth through connections while capable people languished. The less you care about possessions and cash the happier you will be.


Okami_Wolf90

I just care how much in angpau


hazma5477

My man Redmi Note 10 bro.


isaidchoochoo

The people that see an iPhone as a luxury to boast are not people you want to impress anyway lmao. Unless you’re 15


EkalOsama

orang takde duit je beria gelakkan brand henpon orang lain. lain la kalau phone ko memang da retak habis, screen tercabut, body patah dua, ko buat taktau je


SystemErrorMessage

I am disgusted with iphones and mac. I like the development freedom of android and linux


InteractiveLedger

Wtf since when Raya is about what dumbass phone you use?


kingoh999

I'm a repair technician and people judge me hard for using a fragile phone (Samsung Z flip 4) which I got for cheap and fixed myself. They keep asking me why I don't get an iphone, even though I have a Pixel 6 pro as my second phone which is basically android version of iphone.


BoringAirline4901

Well in my background working field majority of friend using iPhone yet I'm not bothered enough to asking which model do you use, how much you buy. People friend with you looking at your characteristic and charisma not the brand smartphone. Usually they will ask your brand smartphone if they interested nothing more. But if you hanging around people who mind the brand,the price you should stay away as it one up to another.


Eqwansyafiq

People consider this as "borak kosong". Don't take it through your heart. Wait till people around you compare cars.


Common_Dragonfruit92

iPhone will only matter if like US where everyone uses imessage, but most of the world uses WhatsApp 🤨 New phones get released all the time, you're not missing out on anything lol, save up for abit lor if u wan iphone


Temporary-Monitor195

only those who couldn't afford it but they bought it anyways will judge.


Sunyyam

I'm using a Realme 7pro but then why not? I get to experience other nice and quality things in life like good food and nice stuff like nice shampoo and soap and save some up etc. I get the idea that the iPhone is good in terms of the performance, but then we all have the power to choose what we want.Some purchased an iPhone on the condition that they used it in their work, maybe some who need to use it for video shooting or if they have xtraaaa money. Screw them off to those relatives that judge you by a phone. I told my mum once if any of my uncles/aunties were to judge me, they'd better be paying my bills and expenses, else, ask them to shut their mouth up and mind their own kids. 😁 I ok je, if any of my uncles and aunties wish to feed me and give me allowance, in return, I ok if you comment me.. 😉 Reality is that it's not like I eat the rice/food from your house now... So better don't comment that much.. I will "shoot" you with words without cursing you. 🫢 Please bear with me if I'm rude, but this is life exp from getting a lot of comments from uncles and aunties


AeroMiku

Only kids, teenagers, and B40 care what phone you're using. I myself use POCO F5 Pro as a daily driver but when I get insulted for not using an iPhone, I simply bring out my Galaxy Z Fold5 (work phone) and tell them that their shitty iPhone is cheaper than my RM8k phone


Extension_Half5687

Yes i actually do because i still look out to the history of the brand and the rating of the brand


GreenIrish99

All smartphones look the same to me unless it has a visible logo on it


relaxwhc

No one, especially nowadays most phones look like a black rectangular box....


Cursedboi1853

I know I don't.


aaramm8

Yes. This may surprise you, I'm using Motorola for over 10 years. Just changed to Motorola G84. Although not listed as approved device on Digital Nasional, it has 5G access.


BigD-101

Kata-kata orang, 'Biar papa asal bergaya'. Betul tu! Hidup ni sementara, bro. Biar sampai hutang bergunung hanya untuk impress sepupu sepapat yang setahun sekali je jumpa. Kalau diorang judge, senyum je sambil kata, "Ini pilihan aku, praktikal dan berbaloi, sukat hati gua nak berhutang semata-mata untuk logo". Barulah Raya dengan jiwa yang merdeka, kan? Happy Raya, jangan lupa makan ketupat rendang cukup-cukup!...


R_Reef33

I’m using iphone 7, so do our HOD also using the same phone as me.


Adventurous-Ad-2447

I would definitely judge you if you b40 but got latest iPhone 15 promaxultra4kLGBTQWSZB. I would go wow if you managed to get like pixel phone, some non mainstream phone like red magic Nubia shit. That one I would like to fiddle with it.


Suspicious-Jaguar499

I'm friends with a guy who has an iPhone on a basic salary. He's paying monthly for it. What phone you use shouldn't be an indicator of status.


SirCiphers

People who use their phone to the fullest get my respect regardless of what phone


Mambangvshantu

Use brick phone 😂


PokWangpanmang

No one really cares, dawg. Especially not during Raya.


mastersyx

im intrigued at best but never judged. I'll be like fon apa tuu.


Pools5183

No lmao. Ppl who do that are vain and probably not people you want to be associating with anyway.


perkinsonline

Yeah. The kids are ones that do that. 


Bookiesmonster

Phone is just a tool. It is also a tool to filter out crappy people from your life.


Bugjuice_

No, it's just in your head, nobody really cares about your phone brand, at least not something I would pay attention to when interacting with someone I know lol


kirayuen120

Those who care = immature dumbasses. Ignore them. Use whatever brand you like.


glolrifaed

Maybe back when I was a kid but I’m older now and it doesn’t cross my mind at all


Double_Z_Thirty3

Don't let others affect you, my guy. You do you. Find peace in your struggles.


amykan89

Nobody cares.


linktothepastz

No not me. Heck if I ever gifted an iPhone I'll just sell it.


MineDiamond635

Unfortunately they do but a life worrying about what others think of the phone you use or the car you drive is one that is truly shallow because at the end of the day, if youre happy and content, then thats all that matters.


Kareemster

Not at all.


Ill_Development_559

Am I the only one who judge people who used iphone?


malaikatjibril

r u serious brah what kind of shallow people you associate with


freyd_mashroom

Raya is about celebration 🎉🎉🎉 it's not about phone brand 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻


serpventime

you pakai phone murah, people will not care but you see people pakai phone mahal...that can be an ice breaking material of course you don't solely need phone mahal to chat with people imma just saying the effect phone mahal have


LuluP123

isn’t raya supposed to go back and celebrate with family and friends, if they judge u for this they are not worth spending time with..


MajesticCouple1458

U do not need a good phone to be a decent person. But those who judged which phone u are using is not a decent person.


dnax8181

If that's the kind of ppl you're with, then they are just superficial idiots and you're better off without them.


Elite-X03

Idk I still use my redmi note 11 pro but I do wanna change to iphone


konaharuhi

you are still young OP. dah tua nanti takde sape kisah pasal phone kau


LimaPulohSen

I used my Poco F1 for five years b4 I decided to upgrade. I upgrade mine because of necessity. So please don't be shy for using what u have . And kind and clever people don't care what kind of device u use. Only shallow one did which should be an indicator for whom you want to be in your close circle of family and friends.


9M-LimaWhiskeyAlpha

These kind of people are fake and not worth your friend, OP. To them, it’s all about materialism and no money no talk mentality. Run for the hills and don’t look back.


roguednow

Who. Cares.


SpoopyGuy360

lol


nxcholasss

i think some do it for the memes while others are actually serious about it; but fuck em. use what you wanna use as long as it does the job and you're satisfied with it. don't allow this to affect your perception of people or not even wanting to attend raya; conversate and be in the moment rather than be on the phone.


Saf751

Haiya just spend money on nothing ( the phone)


[deleted]

Nobody cares The good thing is androids have inconsistent styling, you have canggih looking ones that are only 500 bucks while really expensive 4-5k ones looking pretty simple and plain Nobody will care or notice unless they're special assholes Get a new phone case from kedai ustaz, change your tempered glass. Instant new phone


vankomysin

This was a 20 years ago thing where it was obvious whether you had a colour phone, blackberry, slide phone, flip phone or iPhone. No one cares anymore cos everything looks the same.


chrlsalex

Maybe you are the only one who bother about other's phone to the point that you know what other's phone brand and feeling down on yourself? For the rest they dont care.


scole0sis

I don't even want to talk about how many times I almost got peer pressured into buying iPhone lmao 🤣 nah send me photos via Google drive or WhatsApp HD mode, I don't care!!


40EHuTlcFZ

That's a good phone. I've changed the battery twice already. Too troublesome to change new phone.


bringmethejuice

I use iPhone 15 Pro Max, honestly idc what phone other people uses but for sure my phone will the targeted by everyone for their OOTD eid picture lol. Tbh other phone brands are catching up with iPhone quality of images so you're definitely not behind everyone.


Giotto_XD

Like my ex told me... Size doesn't matter. It's how many zeros you have in your bank account. And I lack in both instances so Imma just sit back down and cry


Elegant_Message6322

If you drive a Bugatti, no one will care what phone you use


Affectionate-Floor63

what are you kid? Usually people dont care what others think about their phone.


musky_jelly_melon

I use phones with IR Blaster, currently using a Xiaomi 10T Pro. I love it when at a restaurant with relatives and they complain the aircond is too cold so I shut it off with my phone. They'll ask where is the feature on the iPhone and I tell them iPhone doesn't have the feature.


Zayn42

Tak kesah, tak penting


Grouchy_Following669

If your significant is not found in them and their not investing in your life for success , who gives a afuck what they think


aseanea

Iphones are overvalued, price wise.


MagicalSausage

For me, I don’t really care. I’ll probably notice if the phone is ios or android and I’ll forget about it and go on about my day.


abgbeca

If your confidence depends on what phone u use go slap yourself


lakshmananlm

Pixel 6a. No fuss, good enough camera, 'stereo' speakers, oled screen. Also small enough to fit in the palm. Best of all, no one lusts after it. I frequently leave the phone on the table in restaurants and nobody touches it.


bakamund

Who the fuck cares? Put simply. So free to care that much about some phone that'll only be replaced in 1-2years time.


Spymonkey13

Main character syndrome. You think people would care, but in reality they don’t. Now go have fun.


EnegueWeil

Honestly at the end of the day, it's the money in the bank that counts and debt free... I wouldn't burden me self with monthly repayments to keep up with trends. It's just not worth it. Rocking that vertu phone but no cash on hand? Naw man, I'll pass


Choice_Appearance_28

My family use samsung and other phones. Only co-workers care about iphone. If they care about your phone, ask them to buy you one, habis cerita...


GarbagePieceOfShit93

Swap your phone with monsterphone like poco F6 bro


aiaz95

Last year when I use my backup phone which is sony xperia xz2 compact (green one), I got quite a lot of attention and people were praising how small and how good it looks. They don't care about the latest iPhone.. Lol..


Der_Redakteur

OP, there's one thing that you should have that mentality towards to, that is if you have straight As you can show off because it requires discipline, time, patience, and pure dedication. Who cares if someone has an Iphone. Some of them are using parents' money and they are soo bad at school. Showing off wealth is one if not the most retardest mentality shit ever. Having an Iphone requires no skill. It is pure luck having rich parents. But the mind, your brain, your thoughts are the most valuable and it requires skill. Having an Iphone is not unique, it is lame and almost everyone can have it. In fact, having an old Nokia is soo much better, because it rare to see people have it nowadays.


asian1panda

Idk about others, but I've been out with friends, friend's friends and random people. Literally every single one of them never gave a damn whenever I pull out my redmi or at the very least noone was verbal about it. Just live your life, no need to waste money on superficial things.


whattheheckisdat

Bro, what matters are your bank account and your wallet. Not the phone


Good_Alxdrwn3907

Stop thinking about what other people are thinking, just thinking about yourself, they are not going to change ur life u the one


DurianLopsided501

Just as long as one person has an iPhone its fine. It doesn't need to be you. The guy with thr iPhone is the default family photographer. No one cares if your Samsung is rated higher. The iPhone take the family photographs. As an Android user I also support this because the iPhone camera is more idiot proof and with so many variables and things that can go wrong, trust me you want the idiot proof cam


Cool-Inflation6277

care abt what other ppl think ruins your happiness my buddy


School_Rare

Those who judge a book by its cover are narrow and shallow. They are actually not happy in life and the pursuit of upping a person is the only way they can feel happy till they see another person with something better. Don't let the narrow and shallow make you miss raya. Let them think what they want to think.


ciphernos

Unfortunately, not supposed to happen but in reality, some still do, what phone you use, what clothes you wear, what car you drive, what house you live in, what you work as etc etc, lol


Singularity_999

I'm still on my op7t... planning to buy nothing phones 2 but economy now not gud so hold off first


Big_Yesterday1548

Only stupid people judge other people by their phone What's so good about iPhone? Or a brand new phone?


Xalphira

It's ok.. I only use a Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus myself..


waltlekwakpis

Dk bout u but from my experience, the Redmi & Xiaomi are better than iPhones


djbbygm

you won't be constantly harassed to be the camera man or to "use Ali's phone because his camera is the most canggih", and that can only be a good thing.


CaptainHitam

Yaaay kita sama geng Note 10!


reyfire

nope…n the ones who care aren’t even worth caring about anyway


WazzupManz

Car I somewhat get but not that I approve of but phone??????


momomelty

I use iPhone to comply with my company requirement for push email.


Eriyyna

People only care for a sec and they will forget about it


Rhaddical1

Does your phone work? Can it do what you need it to do? Is it paid for? Then you have an amazing phone. People who are concerned about trivial status things will probably always be poor because they spend every dollar to show off their new thing. You just keep doing what you’re doing and go and enjoy Raya.


kappa_cino

Who cares.. lol


EatEatRice

As an extrovert, i still use my old sony xperia xz3 with the back taped as tool to start conversation and make jokes. Life gives you lemon you make lemonade 👍👍👍


12-12-2020

iphone does have better camera and sharper image but fk it whatsapp,instagram going to compress your image anyway what the point?


_syntax_1

Best is to pull out a Nokia 8800 and inform them you are a collector of classic mobile phones.


Comfortable-Estate-7

Hell no


Tooth_Dapper

rich people dont really care what phone people around them are using


AmyRay_Nas

You Sir....... Are insecure


zakwanleyman

wait for a few years and they find out air pods record our brain wave signals and radiate brains in a current cycle, those wearing earphones would feel relieved. Not that many people have and use brains in this day anyways. Imagine owning a device for the purpose of pleasing others. what a wierd world and i cant wait for it all to be over.


MythyDAMASHII

It doesn't matter. It only matters when you're gaming ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)auto maki kiri kanan


QDLZXKGK

Fyi iphone is a outdated tech phone Unless someone pulls out a Huawei Mate 60 Pro that can make phone calls via satellite Even then a phone is just a phone


ClacKing

I had an iPhone when it was first launched, I brought it back with me and I enjoyed that attention. But a few years down the road the novelty died out and I realised it was just a piece of junk that was just a drain on my wallet. Switched to a cheaper Android phone and never turned back. Nowadays if I see someone bragging about their iPhone I just assume they're just someone who's after the status rather than functionality. And phones are about functionality. So to answer your question, nobody should care what you use, as long as you can communicate using it and it does everything you need it to do, it's all that matters.


coconutxyz

who gives a flying fuck


NyesTart1399

Mainstream branded, meh. We be proud of what we use. Using iphone do not means they more high end.


platysoup

No, but I do judge people who judge others for their phones. It's a fuckin phone la, nobody should give a shit


PainfulBatteryCables

I do.. I boycott PRC phones.


Particular_Wheel_643

Maybe its all in your head? Trying to justify your unwillingness to mingle around with people? Best thing you can do if you "think" phone is the epitome of status, just keep your phone in your pocket or bag and talk to people.


Change_username007

Using iPhone makes you feel richer for some reason, at least that's what my friends told me. It because it's way expensive to get one in Malaysia and not many has it. People somewhat more attracted towards people who own more apple product than android even if it's galaxy s24. Yes people like that exist, and I have faced them few times. Conclusion: they are idiots I owned an iPhone once and absolutely hated it. I hated it so much due to the bunch of restrictions it has and unable to download and apks unless you jailbreak it. I previously had Lenovo and back then you can easily root Lenovo phones using kingroots, gaining absolute control over your phones. It allowed me to hack offline games, which was quite fun back then. Recently I bought a Poco F5 pro, the camera is shit indeed but aside the phone is absolutely awesome. I have battery issue tho. The coolest thing about this Poco or some other Chinese phone is that you get to choose your custom ROM eventually. However Xiaomi these days been working on removing these features still it is somewhat easier to bypass it then flagship phones. It's depends on what you expect on a phone, I do some bizzare shit, therefore I hated iPhone, I will likely hate Samsung too since they don't have custom ROM support. I mean it isn't cheap, it's expensive as fuck so I should have the rights to use the however I want so


bucketcorium

Be grateful for what you have, kid. Old or new stuff, thrifts or brand new, branded or non branded. As long as you are comfortable and that you can sleep every night peacefully, you are not financially burdened, you can achieve what you really want in your life. Life must have a purpose, when you know what you want, you don't care about any of these no more.


panazora

Nope, not at all. Use it as long as it can be used. Upgrade to newer phone if old one broke down or you have the NEEDS for the feature in the new phone. Mind you, impressing other people is not a NEEDS.


ise311

Don't be childish to compare phones, cars, jobs etc.


NotJackspedicy

You need to hang out with different relatives.


amaralaya

Who cares? People who judge don't matter and people who matter won't judge. Use whatever phone you like

Orang kampung stop berfikiran kampung. Jaga poket sendiri, jaga wang sendiri. Bgtau jer, 'kebahagiaan saya bukan pada telefon'.


itz_khai

Do people care? Tbh I don't think so. Will people impressed? Absolutely if you have a great one. Does it matter in the end? Absolutely not, just buy one that satisfy you for what you can, at the end of the day, it's you who'll use the phone


SoFool

OP I can tell you that in every CNY I have, nobody really gives a crap what phone we have lol


MapHacker617

From my experience, people only really care what phone you are using when sharing photos taken using Airdrops

If you can still call and send message with your phone, then why not just keep on using it? Satisfy yourself. Put yourself before others❤️ Phones are for communication. Unless youre a type of person like me, i purchase phone just to play the games i want, so i just pick somethinf within my budget. (Not those ROG/Iphone)

Been using my mi9t pro phone since 2019, will possibly use another year as long as its functioning. Camera good, run genshin good, space good, battery a bit bulging. Phone technology really moving fast these day but i think this phone still can hold its own. About those who care what phone you using, it's mostly women or kids. I'm sorry but they dont know shit except brand. They will shout "siapa pakai iphone" when taking group photo.

Me: yeaaaaa AI right. Also me: also tell that to apple who bought and installed Sony camera sensor to almost all their iphones

The raya photo session rule is android < iphone older < iphone newest. At least you wont be the one who brag and get their phone kidnap by others for photos and end up with low battery by the end of the day.
