the best combo

Does anyone know if the next iPhone will have a considerable camera bump from the 13?
I'm a /p/edo and was considering the 12S Ultra for that 1 inch sensor but would rather stay with iPhone

Thoughts on the nothing phone?

I like that it actually has a slim chin. Sadly not many android phones do that

A52Schads, rise up.

what the fuck should I buy for 200
only care about smoothness browsing my normie apps and okish photos
phone must not lag opening apps

Bought a new phone, what precautions might one take if the old phone is suspected to have malware (huawei to Samsung )

is the iphone 11 still worth buying

I wouldn't.

These Chinese phone companies need to hire me. My job would be being white and speaking English.
They could run ideas by me like: "We thinking of name our new phone da F4GT phone." and I could explain to them how a dog owned by two gay men ended up with monkeypox on his asshole.
I think I'd be a valuable asset.

Pixel 5a

in the same price range? Poco F4 5G, unironically

if you somehow get it for cheap and brand new, sure, it's a way better "budget" alternative than the SE

good concept but I'll wait for its second or third iteration, new OEMs and hardware/QC issues go hand in hand

>Pixel 5a
cant find it on amazon

I want an 8 inch phone

Currently have a Poco X3 NFC, battery is not what it was and it doesn't recognize mircosd anymore.

Been looking at the a52s which I can buy for £285 right now, albeit the version for greece market which I don't think matters. Is there any other phone around the £300 mark that is better for my money?

Also is it worth waiting for black friday or will the a52s not go much cheaper?

>is it worth waiting for black friday
when is it due?
t. doesnt have a phone and it is becoming urgent

get it now, the A52s is being replaced by the inferior A53 in lots of stores already, who knows if it's going to be on stock on black friday

>Poco X3 NFC
I have one but the screen is dead; wondering if I will buy a new screen for almost 100 or just get a new one at this point
it didnt lasted 2 years tho

...

Redmi Note 11. I've had it for a month, amoled, 90hz, huge battery, decently fast and never lags. Photos are okay, videos suck.

sup faggots
looking for a phone for my wife with ROCK SOLID SOFTWARE. That's priority number 1. No bullshit hangs, no collapse if multitasking, etc. I don't mean "fast" necessarily, I mean STABLE.
She doesn't want an iPhone because she hates Apple with a passion, and I don't want a Pixel because of them being OLED.
I'm listening, thanks in advance
