ive been racking my brain between which to get for a while but it just seems that every phone i look at has some perks that the others dont.

i hear the hyper os is just kinda bad but that the color os is great, but the oppo costs a crazy amount. But then the xiaomi has a privacy screen ..

for me the priority is os, performance and battery at the most important and then camera as the least important, and thats exactly why i hesitate to get the oppo since its called the camera that happens to be a phone

ive been on a s20 fe for a good while now so i just want something that will not only last but feels good to use (and the xiaomi having a backscreen is just a big pro to me).

I am looking for a phone for my teen child within the range of £100-£120

They used the pixel, which was enjoyable for them. Now looking for something in good or very good condition that has:

Good camera

6gb off ram

Get charging

Music player.

Thank you

I'm planning on buying a new mobile phone within 5 months and I'm pretty confused about which mobile phone to buy that'll last me good for \~5 years.

These are my requirements for the new phone.

Price: Under ₹35,000

Storage: 256GB

RAM: 8GB+

Battery: Good battery life

Charging: Fast charging

Camera: Great overall camera

Video: Very good quality + stabilization

Performance: Smooth, fast, minimal lag/hanging

Editing: Should handle photo/video editing smoothly

Processor: Strong enough for editing + multitasking

Longevity: Reliable for \~5 years

Software: Good long-term updates

Usage: Daily use + occasional editing

OS: Android

I had two phones in mind.

One is Pixel 7a and the other one is One Plus Nord ce5 just cause I liked how they looked like.

But turns out those two phones doesn't go with all of my requirements. Especially Pixel 7a.

Personally, I don't fw Motorola.

So anything else other than that brand would prolly suffice.

like,

Google Pixel

One Plus

Samsung S series

Vivo

Nothing

that is all. if anyone has any idea about phones close to my requirements, do share. it'll be kind of you :)

thank you!

Clean Android (No ColorOs, OneUI, etc.)

Superior Camera Quality similar to (S24 Ultra, Xiaomi 15 Ultra, etc.)

eSIM + NFC

Waterfall Display (Like Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra or Honor Magic4 Pro)

I also want slim phone, not a brick.

And good battery life would be great too.

Any recommendations? Thank you

Used Redmi Note 14 vs new phone under 20k? Need advice for smoothness and performance

First time posting on Reddit, so bear with me if I mess up the format. :)

I'm in Chittagong and looking for a phone under 20k. Main priority is smoothness and perfomance

Will a used Chinese Redmi Note 14 be noticeably smoother than a new 20k phone?

How do I check battery health and ROM? What's an easy way to tell if it's a Global ROM or a Chinese ROM?

For 18-20k, are there other better options instead of a used Note 14

Any help please!

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to buy a new phone with a budget of around ₹40,000.

Right now, I’m considering:

• OPPO K13 Turbo Pro
• POCO F7
• Redmi Turbo 5

I mainly want a phone that can maintain high FPS smoothly, especially during long sessions.

I’d like to know from people who actually own these phones:

• What FPS do you get in BGMI/PUBG and COD Mobile?
• Does the FPS remain stable during long sessions?
• How much does the phone heat up?
• Do you experience FPS drops or throttling?
• How is the battery drain during long sessions?
• How has the performance been after using the phone for a few months?

Also, if you know any other phone under ₹40K that can maintain better FPS than these, please recommend it.

If you’ve personally used any of these phones, please share your experience. I’d especially like to know about the FPS you get, heating, FPS drops, battery drain, and how the phone has performed over time.

Also, if you’ve personally used any other phone under ₹40K that you think is better than these, please share your experience and recommend it.

I am seeking recommendations for a mobile phone for my mother, whose main priorities are the camera and battery. She does not intend to play games or use extra features—only standard banking and photography—so could anyone suggest a durable, high-quality device under about 40 K with a strong camera, a capable processor, and reliable battery backup?

I’m thinking to upgrade from my iPhone 11 to a new one, initially l was thinking to buy iPhone 17 in bbd sales so after the price hikes I can’t as my budget is 60k approx. So suggest me best Xiaomi 17 vs Vivo X200 T or any other mbl in this budget in India

Hi, I'm after an Android for daily use. I've narrowed it down to two good contenders: an Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra or a Xiaomi 14 Ultra, both used 2024 models but in very good condition.

The Xiaomi has a better display, double the RAM/storage (although Asus can match it for £60 extra), better camera, much nicer design, more OS and security updates, faster charging, and it's a bit cheaper.

All the Zenfone has over it are a much nicer OS (I hate the look of HyperOS and want it as stock as possible), a headphone jack, and a bigger battery. Not much but these are all very important to me. On the other hand it has a worse display, worse support, costs more, looks very plain/boring, etc.

The Xiaomi is a nicer phone in nearly every way but I'm wondering if these are gimmicks and the Zenfone would be better for me to live with for the next 2 or so years. How do you decide between two phones in a situation like this? Thanks

(edit: budget is ~£450-500 GBP and location is UK, if that matters)

I know ppl say its a downgraded phone from s25fe but outside comparison with that, hows s26fe so far?

Q Which phone do you recommend, the Pixel 10a or the Poco X8 Pro? Which one do you recommend?I want something durable and good for gaming, help please

Which phone do you recommend, the Pixel 10a or the Poco X8 Pro? I want something durable. I have a Pixel 6a and I've had it for 3 years. Please help!

I have been using samsung a 36 but camera quality is not that good ... so now I want to switch my phone ... can anyone suggest if samsung s 25 or I phone 15 pro or Google pixel 10 ... which phone has better camera quality

ella tiene el suyo, pero ya es algo antiguo, me gustaría cambiarlo por uno más avanzado, que tenga una buena cámara, batería y sea cómodo para una persona ya mayor

I currently have a Samsung Galaxy A56 in Canada and I’m thinking about switching to an iPhone.

Would it be worth upgrading from the A56 to an iPhone 17, or should I go for the newer iPhone 18 Pro?

For those who have used both Samsung/Android and iPhone, how big of a difference would I actually notice?

I’m also wondering if switching from Android to iPhone is something I might regret.

If you were in my position, would you keep the A56, get the iPhone 17, or go for the iPhone 18 Pro? Why?

Hi there! Xiaomi redminote 13 is dying, after 5 years of hardwork.
Im looking to buy a new one.

Was checking out this one? Is it the best for the money?
Budget 350€ish, Country: Italy.
I dont care about camera, I mostly care about smoothness (this nord5 has a good cpu I heard) for light gaming and battery life.
What do you say? Have you got other suggestions?
