I'm sure there's a few old threads about this, but I'm curious to see if anyone changes phones as frequent as I do
1. Samsung Freeform 3 - I had this for one year. I was only 14 and my mother didn't want me to have an android.
2. Samsung Admire - 1st Android. Solid phone. Also first phone I rooted. I got rid of it after the battery got bad, that if I didn't put it on airplane mode during school, the phone would die.
3. LG Optimus M - My friend had one of these and ditched it for an LG Connect, so I used it as a free replacement for the Admire. First phone I put not only 1 custom ROM on, but 3.
4. LG Motion - I got this after Metro lowered the price to $49. This little thing was a beast! It was my first 4g phone. I got bothered by the screen after 10 months tho.
5. LG L70 - My least favorite phone that I had. Practically NO storage, and it only had root at the time i had it. I cracked the screen my first semester of college, and vowed never to get another "low-range" android again...
6. Moto G (2014) - First BYOD. The screen was great, the camera was great. Had no problems with it other than occasional lag. This is the only Android that I had that I never rooted. I also cracked the screen in my college and only had it for 5 months. (The screen that Motorola put on these 2nd gen Moto G's are awful. There's a lot of complaints about them).
7. Samsung Galaxy Avant - 2nd least favorite android i've owned. I needed a decent (not cheap) replacement (or else I would've gotten another L70 for $29). This was around the time Metro/TMo stopped selling the ZMAX (or else I would've gotten one). It was good stock, but the metro/lagwhiz stuff were killing it. So I rooted, and I also discovered the goodness of xposed. I followed the dev community REALLY closely with this one. I used CM and AOKP. In the end, the battery was AWFUL, the screen was too small, and it was a power hog even w/o bloat.
8. Samsung Galaxy S4 - 2nd BYOD. One of my friends was getting rid of his S4 (He upgraded to the STYLO, b/c he wanted a bigger screen, but overall its a downgrade). I paid $100. I have already rooted, put xposed and now deciding on what ROM to put. This is the best phone I've ever had (on paper and in use). I don't know if I can ever go back to a phone with specs lower than this ever again LOL.
