These are just examples, I have no opinion on what is the best.

Something like: I like the cameras from the Galaxy s23, the processor from the latest Pixel, the memory from the Razor. I mean whatever. I suppose Iphones could be included, but I figure it’s more locked in than androids, I could be wrong.

Or even replacing a part from one phone with one that’s better, for personal use? Like, even just putting pixel 7 cameras into a pixel 8 phone.

Besides the factory warrenty, and money spent, is it software? Is it having to reconfigure the hardware? Is it just space in general?

If we all have things we don’t like about our phones, why aren’t we able to just make it more to our liking?

    LOL, yeah. Capitalism.

    The great socialist countries are way ahead with modular, standardized mobile handset components.

    Everyone knows the longest-lived PC bus standards came out of the Soviet Union and North Korea in the 80s.

    And large businesses worldwide are still running accounting software on the mainframe architecture China’s government developed in the 60s.

      You do realize that computers and the internet were invented and developed by the government, right?
