Title: Another smartphone maker could lose its identity
Post by: Redaktion on July 10, 2026, 20:02:57
A lot of smartphone makers have multiple sub-brands to address different market tiers and regions. These sub-brands don't always survive in the long run, and that's what happened with OnePlus, but it now looks like there may be another sub-brand on the chopping block.

Never had a single issue with Samsung or Pixel Phones.  I dumped Samsung due to ads put on Android and their lacking software policies at the time, but they've since improved and I would consider them again.

I really liked the Poco X series. Good value for money. I currently use the X8. Oh well, whatever.
