Do you ever reminisce about an old phone you had in the past? (sh.itjust.works)

They don't make them small like they used to...

LG used to put really good DACs in their phones. So for somebody who uses his phone as an MP3 player that can also take calls, my LG V30 was perfect.

    I am gutted that my LG Wing's USB port is damaged. I can still charge it thanks to having wireless charging so now I always look for phones with one AS A BACKUP for charging.

    But it's the fun quirky spinning slider screen is just amazing. For pure unadulterated brain rot doomscrolling, I can put on a YouTube video or stream on the main screen and hold the phone "upright", the video will be playing in full screen and I can shitpost in discord or anywhere on the small screen.

    Or if I want to shitpost more seriously, I swap the positions and hold the phone 90 degrees and have whatever social media I have on the main screen in portrait and have the video play on the small screen.

    It also makes for a great car phone. Have whatever navigation app I'm running on the main, and have the music player on the small screen to easily change tracks. Maybe one day I'll be brave enough to crack the back open and replace the USB port.
