    Yes I’m thinking next time around to go for a good mid-range. Considering the time that phones actually last, it’s too much to pay for flagship phones.

      Not too mention what even is the point of getting a flagship?

      The cameras are great on most phones, the specs are good enough for most people’s use case (call, text, social media).

      Hell the last few years the consistently best rated phone camera by users has been the Pixel A series of phones. The budget Pixel phones.

        The only reason I got my flagship Sony Xperia is because it still had a headphone jack, sd slot, and no notch. It was expensive but everything I wanted. Last phone was an iPhone 6s. I wish there was cheaper options honestly for what I’m looking for but those 3 combinations don’t seem to exist other than Sony.

          I feel you on that

          I miss the days of sd slots, headphone jacks, and removable batteries.

          Phone cameras are pretty good now though and the Xperia has a damn good one
