Hi,
I will certainly buy a new android phone in the next month and I will need help choosing which one.
My requirements : has support from LineagesOs, ability to root, good battery, NFC and Google Pay should work even after root, camera should be at least OK, price under 200€ (or even 150€). I have seen devices in that range that satisfy almost all the requirements.
My current phone is Mi Mix 2 from 2019 and still usable but battery drain in one day even though I don’t use it that much. I changed battery recently but nothing changed so I am always carrying an external battery. So a similar phone with bigger battery and good camera can be a good candidate. I always bought Xiaomi devices and I don’t know how are the other brands.
Hi OP. Sorry I don’t have an answer to your question but I do have one suggestion for consideration when purchasing a new phone, and that’s battery capacity. I’m not sure if you much about batteries, apologies if you do, but for a vague reference 3000mAh is on the low end, while 5000mAh is a pretty pumping battery. Personally, I only buy phones with a minimum 4000mAh battery capacity.
Of course how long the battery will last battery varies on based on numerous factors, including but not limited to the phone hardware, screen size, what apps you run, and much more.
I know that 3000mAh is low but it wasn’t the case back in 2017. The issue is that I changed the battery but still lasts the same time I the previous ones.
