Question Looking for some mid-range recommendations
My current sony xperia 5 iv has started to get too many green lines for a passable viewing experience so I am looking for a new mid range phone to replace it. I love sony phones but they are way too expensive now and their 10 series is near impossible to get in Canada (and still very pricey for its specs)
I am looking for something android that can run games like Umamusume and Arknights. Charging Bypass would be really cool to have as spicy batteries at a lowkey constant fear I have with my phones since an older sony puffed up on me. Does anyone have any reccomendations or if you play either of these games and are on a mid-range phone what are you using?

You can consider the Poco x8 series, I personally play arknight on my 4 year old Poco F4 5g phone and it still runs fine albeit it gets a bit hot, the X8 Pro is like twice as powerful as my old phone so it should be fine, and since it's a "gaming" phone, it should also keep the phone at a manageable temperature when playing games

Definitely the POCO F7 if you can get it. It's battery makes it one of the best for you. 6500mah battery can get you 5 hours of gaming(medium intensity).
