You're trying to say you like DOS better than me, right?

Firefox Focus. No text input lag, fast load times, and great privacy.
Definitely worth the download in case anybody was tired of their current browser.

What kind of phone do you use? I'm in the market for a new phone. I've never liked Apple iPhones. The Google Pixel seems to be getting positive reviews but Google has been doing a lot of things I don't like lately. I've heard a variety of complaints from HTC and Samsung users.
Truth is, I don't really know what I want. I've been reading that flip phones are making a comeback and there have been some pretty nice ones recently that have great cameras, processing power, and GPS navigation. I really enjoy the tactile feeling of pressing on buttons instead of touch screens. However, all the flip phones I've looked at so far are missing one or all key features I really want:
1. Voice-to-text dictation
2. Fast internet browsing for quick searches
3. Access to certain basic apps like facebook, skype, or youtube.

I have a preference for LG phones. My previous phone was an LG G2 which I had for a few years without issue. But due to wear and tear, leaving it on all the time, and dropping it in a pot of water (like a fucking idiot. That was the only time I have ever done that with a phone), I retired that phone and bought an LG K10 which has not given me any issues yet. I have had this phone for about a year, and it works fine. It is a cheaper model, but gets the job done and does everything you want it to do.
As far as iPhones go...yeah, no thanks. Overpriced, overly fragile, trendy garbage that requires you to go to the Apple store to get anything fixed. If a non Apple employee attemps to fix your phone, they brick your fucking phone.

The system UI us basically the same as stock Android (the original Android as Google designed it) like the Pixel |

Opera (combined regular and Mini) -- one love. Literally every smartphone platform has it, as it should be. Also Mini eats like 20x less bandwidth, but doesn't support javascript (or something) that lots of modern websites require. (e.g. you can't post on DW with opera mini)
The only browser on any mobile platform ever that you could actually use with as much ease and conveniece as if you were using a desktop.
A shame they messed up the desktop version all those years ago and made it yet another Chrome, I would've never switched to stupid Firefox if they didn't.
...although I dunno, have recent versions of Opera become usable since then? Please enlighten an oblivious soul, dear browser-enthusiasts.
EDIT: Yandex Browser is just a reskinned Chrome afaik btw
