This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's an entirely okay phone. But it's overpriced and frankly far too smug with itself.

Every time they come out with a new phone I always check it out in the vague hope that they've actually come up with something interesting and innovative, but they never have, it's always basically just a service Android phone with a transparent back and LED lights that don't really do anything.

Put an e-ink display on the back or something come on, be as interesting as you claim to actually be.

I've got the 2a Plus and it's... fine?

It's specs are fucking brilliant for the money, but there's something I can't quite put my finger on that makes it a bit slower than it should be. It's like someone's taken a modern laptop with decent processing and GPU components... but put in two SO-DIMMs from 1997 in.

The camera is fucking atrocious for taking quick photos or taking rapid photos one after the other.

Otherwise, half decent handset yeah
