I can't wait until more manufacturers adopt this standard and then force us to help every damn person in the family (or even more!) transfer stuff to a new phone, like my mom doesn't even understand how Google accounts work and that they exist to >!steal your data cough cough!< help you transfer stuff to a new phone, she just makes a new one every time, and yes she does everything by hand, transfering photos, contacts, every damn thing
And best thing that everyone has a different upgrade standards, so you could deal with this the newest phone that has this launches or you could too 8 years in the future
Wtf? She does a new one.... That takes more effort... My mother couldn't do that.
Every android phone oobe (at least the cheap ones) say to create or log in to a google account (idk if you can even skip this part) and inputting your name and letting it add a few numbers after it (not even mentioning her writing the password to a calendar, like a physical paper one, in the living room) is stupidly easy
