Bought a Moto Edge 50 Neo to replace a Xiaomi Redmi 10 pro. I have a Moto G30 (a tank phone). Plan is to sell the Redmi and buy a refurb Pixel, and try out Graphene. tbh Moto phones have been easily the most robust and reliable Ive had, my love of Moto goes back to the 90s.

I still have a fully working Samsung A3 (used as wifi radio), and an HTC Wildfire! Also had a nice Wiley Fox, great Nokias, and yes, Ive had a lot of phones over the years.
