I bought an umidigi Bison Pro 3, years ago. It's still going strong with no noticeable issues

I tried to get a custom ROM but they don't seem to exist, people call this a garbage brand (it may be, I don't know) but it has served me well and I'm happy to have paid $250 for a fast phone so I can constantly chat with my wife and browse Lemmy... Why would I pay $1000 for a "flagship" phone to do those 2 same, completely non critical, tasks?

Fair. Although Motorola also left me in the dust with my precious phone, but I was able to find custom ROMs for that one
