Wait what did I miss? I thought Fetterman was supposed to be one of the good ones

(I’m not American)

Severe inconsistent quality issues in both software and hardware, treating their customers as beta testers, random motherboards dying, etc.

They are still riding the ‘flagship killer’ wave, but they are just as overpriced as Samsung, while offering unfinished products.

Wouldn’t recommend Oneplus anymore.

At the high end, Samsung has been pretty solid with their S lineup. The FE models are a good compromise as well. Pixels are a hit or miss, I’d recommend waiting for issues to surface before deciding on the 8/8 pro.

On the more budget - midrange side of things, Motorola has been doing a fairly solid job. They do have a lot of models, so some youtube videos should give you a fair idea on what’s right for you.

A good general rule of thumb is to avoid the E and L series, and stick with the X, T or P series, or the X1 Carbons. Depending on your use case, choose one with the processor and display you want.

I have a T460 with linux on it that I use for work and it has been rock solid even when I spilled coffee on it.

I’m losing it in the hospital corridor lmao

Studio 3T over MongoDB Compass. Despite the comparatively dated UI, S3T is way more capable
