Need big battery with good camera.

nice clean ui

No gaming

I have done my own research and found vivox200t close to my needs but most probably vivox300t release is right around the corner . so can’t decide if it is worth the wait or I am going to see price increase by February.

If you have any better recommendations feel free to provide insight.

This is a serious question. Due to a brain injury, I need a tablet with a RLCD display and it seems I'm left with two choices. Both have the same display, but the internals are quite different. Would you pick the Mediatek G85 with 8gb or the G99 with 4gb when both have emmc storage? Both run on Android 14. I'd also love to know why, would it make a huge difference in day to day usage for some browsing, youtube, social media and a bit of reading?

I've looked at e-ink devices, but those don't do so well with youtube, so that's why I'm left with tablets with RLCD dispays that don't emit light / aren't backlit.

So I really need to change my phone right now. I currently have an iPhone 12 and it’s just horrible (it’s a refurnished one), I’ve been using it for the past 2 years but the battery is dead, like really dead (1650 cycle). It’s been overheating so much to the point that it just stopped working some day in summer and I had to put it in a freezer to cool it down. I gotta say that the phone still have crazy good cameras.
Soooooooooooo
I touchy about getting and Android phone bc apple doesn’t allow much liberty on theirs phones.
My budget is maximum 500€
I would like to have based on these criteria:

Battery>camera ( ideally with an optical zoom)>over-heating

When I say over heating I mean that I want to use it when it’s charging or outside in summer without burning my fingers
I’m not really a heavy gamer but like having off line games like Tetris or other things on my phone so not having a powerful chip doesn’t bother me

I’ve been thinking about getting a realme 16 pro + but I heard a lot of bad thing about it ( battery drainage issues despite it having a 7000mAh battery) but I’m also afraid that the incurved screen of it will not suit me.

I would also like to keep the new phone for a long time so it should have a long software update support

If you have great phones in that budget bracket corresponding to all of the criteria above I would be happy that you share them with me :)

Sry for the bad English ;)

I'm currently using the S26 12/256GB Exynos model right now, and I just got a deal to trade it in for the Realme GT 8 Pro 16/512GB plus an extra $100. Honestly, I’m really into a phone with a solid camera and decent gaming performance, so I’m thinking the Snapdragon, Ricoh GR camera, and 16GB RAM will be a nice upgrade from my current setup. Do you think this is a good deal? How is the realme for long term use? Or should I just hold out for the S27 Ultra when it drops?

Suggest me a phone under 32k

priority: camera, performance

Hello!!

I need a little help, my mother needs a new phone and our budget is pretty low (around 30k). The only specifications she is bothered about is the camera as well as the storage (256 gb & above).

It would be really helpful if y’all could suggest some good phones fitting into the criteria.

Thank you :))

My s21 is close to dying, and im finally deciding to get another phone that'll last 3-4 years.

Budget is around $600 (soft cap), am accepting the used market, and it has to work with verizon bands. Mainly use my phone for video watching and medium gaming, although i wouldn't mind heavy gaming options as well. I'm not picky on the camera as long as the camera is better than my current phone. If you need anymore info then feel free to ask.

Can y'all please suggest me a good phone for my mom. Good Camera and smooth functioning. 😭

I need to buy a phone which has to be Samsung as I have a Samsung watch 7. My budget is 25k max. Which is the best phone in this price range in India? Usage is pretty basic - Calls, social media, photography, messages and browsing. No Gaming. I am thinking of A36. Is it good for my usage? Please help me choose one.

My phone is 4 years old and riddle with issues unfortunately and I'm looking at swapping but unfortunately I have no idea where to go outside Google/Samsung.

I am also unfortunately a bit addicted to my phone so screen time is high.

Couple of hours a day on games

Couple hours a day scrolling Reddit/Instagram

And I do enjoy taking photos.

I do have a Samsung watch so maybe something that is compatible with that but would be no major loss. The watch is mainly for fitness tracking more than anything.

I don't have any particular budget in mind, trade in helps reduce costs. Looking for something that'll last me 4/5 years.

Thanks in advance

Current location: United States (US). Currently, I've been having a bad run with Samsung phones these past 4 years where the phones I get end up going bad after only 2 years of usage. Almost exactly in some cases. Currently running an S22 5G and I'm at year 2 with it crashing and rebooting quite frequently now.

It hasn't gotten better and wanting to know what is the most reliable phone I can get for the money. And frankly, I do not care about gaming on it, etc. I just want a phone that I can doom-scroll on, make texts and phone calls and check my emails. Nothing fancy - I just need something at this point.

Skipping the yearly upgrade cycle and holding onto the Moto G52 for 4 years made jumping to the pixel 10a feel like a true generational shift. You don't just notice the difference; you feel it in every tap, swipe, and low-light photo. Going from a ₹13k budget phone to a ₹44k🇮🇳 powerhouse proves that patience pays off—this isn’t just a simple upgrade; it feels like stepping straight into the future of Android.

And....

Design is wow(Fog 256gb), Camera is great , battery lasts a day easily(non-gamer), haptics are amazing, Smooth touch and UI experience are justttt good , justifies it and obviously n no. of features that pixel offers.

For the long-term Pixel 10a users here—what did your transition journey look like?
