RE: Ecency Leaderboard Champions

It looks like what you mean is that you can already purchase a new phone with an unlocked bootloader when you want to, though it would take a significant portion of your investments (on Hive and outside Hive). 🤔🤯🤓

Well, yes, I could afford it, but it would be at least $100, and probably more, so I'm just using this phone as much as I can before spending more.

Sounds like a phone (with an unlocked bootloader) that costs $100 to $200 would be somewhere between a low-end and a mid-range phone. 🤔💸🤯😅

Yes, that's likely true. I'll definitely need to spend more to get the kind of phone to which I'm accustomed. I usually get them through the carrier, which gives upgrade discounts, so I've usually gotten new phones for just over $100. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

While discounts are good, I assume that there are drawbacks to getting a phone from a carrier compared to getting it online without passing through a courier. 🤔🤯🤓

Yes, there are indeed drawbacks to getting a phone through the carrier, the most important of which is they lock all the bootloaders! They also load the phone will all sorts of apps that I don't need or want, and without root access, that I can't uninstall! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Just a decade or two ago, phones were easier and safer to unlock when locked by whatever carrier locked them. 🤔🤯 Now, forcing to unlock the bootloader can often brick phones. 🤯🤯💸😅

I know, and I despise that nonsense. I used to hack my own phones all the time. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
