Next phone

Post by black_guardian »

Any suggestions for decent Android phone priced under £600?

Looking to ditch my Huawei P20 Pro.

Might go One Plus, Oppo or Pixel.

Pixel 5, I moved from Notes last year to the Pixel 4xl and really like it. Android without all the bloat.

Not bothered about camera. Fast charging time and a decent processor will do for me.

Tbh that would be most of the phones you'd find today in your budget. I had a oneplus, was good spec (especially the processor and fast charge) but eventually it fell apart.

Now on a pixel 4a as I want stock android, great camera, decent battery life, Google warranty. Its a bit small (width wise) but overall v good. Usb c rapid charge pretty standard now.

I've heard of dodgy separating screens on some of the Pixel 5 phones...

Yeah, all Google own brand phones come with vanilla Android.

I've had a couple of Google Nexus and a Pixel over the last 10 or so years.

I've had a Samsung during that period and it came with so much pre-loaded shite i pretty much swore off them for life and went back to Google.
A joyless arsehole.

Well so far so good on 4a, but you get a solid replacement warranty for two years on a pixel direct from Google. Oneplus charge once past a year, I had to just bin mine. YMMV
