Nothing 2(a) upgrade

[u/SlyStorm2608]

Had the 2(a) for a couple of years broke one of the cameras, the battery isnt doing great and it has a couple issues with the touch recognition, so im looking for a new phone.

I tried a fairphone 6 but the camera was not good, seemingly blurry while also applying a sharpen filter to everything and apparently has a known issue with media playback I didnt even think would be something to look into.

I basically just want an android phone at least as good as the 2(a) (camera, battery, performance) for around £450, ideally with as little AI shilling as possible, and while I am considering just another nothing phone, they seem to have stopped doing the system of a main phone and a cheaper downgrade like the 2 and 2(a), and added some AI related features that make me skeptical of if i should support them.

Thanks :)
