    I'm currently using a Nokia 7.2 which I bought nearly 4 years ago. Sadly, there are no more security updates available for this Android 11, so I'm looking for a new phone. I've never used anything but Nokia phones. I bought N9 just as they were closing down the mobile business, skipped the Lumia-phase entirely and used N9 for five years, until I was able to buy the next proper Nokia phone. My N9 even recovered nicely from a bath in the waching machine. A clear sign of being a Nokia-owner is this: When you drop your phone on the floor, your first instict is to check if the phone made a mark on your wooden floor 😁

      If that is your situation I would highly recommend another Nokia model called XR20 or the newer one XR21 but I would still go for XR20 since it's a bit cheaper by now,and if you got that beast you don't have to worry any more ...you will be a worry free mom!

    It's ok but a bit bland looking. I'm not sure 5G is essential for the kind of people who go for budget phones,whenever I've actually managed to get a signal the main noticeable effect has been my battery level dropping at about double its usual rate. I'd guess that for people looking for "just a phone" a Moto G14,or even G13 would do the job, eBay and a bit of patience will get you even the later model for around £100 new

    • @ashdoestech
      @ashdoestech  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree, it's pretty decent but you can definitely get an equivalent or something better for less. I picked up a regular Pixel 6 for just £20 more and aside from battery life, it's miles better in every way!

      I have a motorola G54 5g and the battery drains so fast so I'm looking for another budget phone but I don't know if I want another 5g phone so would you know if I bought a 5g phone and turned off the 5g will it have the same battery drain as a 4g phone.

      I have a 3 years old poco, still beats many "high end phones" in every day use, and it was dirt cheap.
      I bought it just to see how bad it was (since back then it was the cheapest handset with decent specs) but it was a killer unit, just keeps going.
