to me the gold standard for lovely vehicle branding consumers will always be harley davidson people. i tried looking for an HD-branded android phone, and amazingly I couldn’t find one. :/

in a fit of stupidity, i bought a galaxy tab 7+ less than a year after release. it shipped with 3.0, and they FINALLY pushed out an update to 4.0 like 1.5 years later. by that time, samsung had already ADD’d their way off to another 7 inch model, and support for mine was dropped like a hot potato. it was enough to make me swear off android indefinitely.

The only icon in the corner of my phone is the notification that lightflow is running in the background. Anything else that shows up there is a notification that will go away after I interact with it.
