But Wheatley is charming, at least for a while

Woops sorry I think I replied to the wrong comment. Lawnchair is pretty great, but I shifted to Neo where at least the community is a little active.

I work around 45 hours a week and earn around 35,000 rupees monthly. Translates to around 5k USD yearly. This is on the lower end for someone working in tech (I'm in QA, not a dev), developers can expect from 6k to 24k USD on average. They are also expected to reach work harder, though. There are exceptions to this, obviously.

I really like having a plain home screen that I can put widgets onto, so that leaves Niagara out

I actually gave this a go (or 6, over the past year) but it was a bit too radical for my taste

Every UI setup change needs a launcher restart to take effect

This came installed with my rom too, but I really need the option to sort the app drawer into categories or folders

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.

Oh damn. It was at auto, which I assumed was 100% (the lowest value)

I set it to 100 manually and it looks a lot better, thanks!

The UI is horrendously large on my 14 inch 1080p display too

I wish I could hear Norm Macdonald narrate this one
