    Sorry I said 5.3 but of course I mean 5.4 well sorry to hear you couldn't get a 5.4 it would have been a good option but G42 is good too.

    My X30 is good for me also expensive for me but I want a phone to last long time hope I can do 4 or 5 years with it. Ow I using it for more than 1 year already.

Nokia 5.4 for 95 usd ... moreWhen I read what you need/want and if you don't mind getting android upgrades then I think for you the Nokia 5.3 is good enough. Saves some money too. I myself have X30 quality is outstanding Nokia is solid and sturdy. Good updates latest security patch. Yeah I think 5.3 would be sufficient for your needs. Good luck!

              Can anyone help me choose between..
              Nokia 5.4 for 95 usd
              Or Nokia g42 5g for 150 usd

              Nokia 5.4 has much better display , I'm not very rich , I don't want 5g , sd 662 has 4 highcore compared to 2 on sd480 , punch hole is nice ig .

              Nokia g42 has very nice GPU , further aided by 720p panel it will be good gaming phone , but the display is bad, I kind of wouldn't hate 5g lol . it's shady cz the stock wallpaper is different from all other nokia phone 👀 like am I buying Nokia phone or the first hmd phone ??? It's also suspiciously cheap to be a nokia . Is that because it's online exclusive ?

                        1.Battery is good.Charging happens at a pretty decent pace.
                        2.Display is good but not super good especially outdoors in sunlight.
                        3.Touch response of the screen is very shitty.Gives Issues while typing,opening apps,many times it requires multiple touches.Hence the experience while gaming becomes awful despite good RAM, processor and other things.
                        4.UI is very clean.
                        5.Camera is pretty shitty.

                            Imbukwa, 26 Oct 2023You mentioned my favorite phone Samsung. I love Samsung :) I love Samsung too!
                            My J3 was a lovely phone, albeit being a total paperweight.
                            None of the newer Wingtech/Huaqin-made Samsung phones will never match the durability, beauty and reliability of all Samsung-branded phones until 2017

                                  "I believe you mentioned about Android "version upgrades", not Android updates, as they are two different things."

                                  I haven't asked you to explain the ones you've explained in your last reply but, as per your statement, I wanted to know the difference between the ones you've stated.

                                  Let me ask you the same question clearly, this time. May I request you again to explain the difference between "Android version upgrades" and "Android updates". Hope you would admit that security updates or software patches doesn't mean " Android version upgrades " or "Android updates". I don't mind about where others are wrong but, I always mind and care about where I am wrong because, without which I can't correct my mistakes and myself.

                                    Security updates are the updates that bring a newer security patch and certain bug fixes to a particular device.
                                    Cumulative updates are updates that include bloatware with every software update. For instance, all Samsung phones get 4 years of cumulative updates with either new Google, Facebook, Hancom, Amazon and Samsung apps, which people often mistake for security updates. This gives an illusion of getting a newer security patch, despite not getting any.

                                    Hope my clarification is crystal clear 😁

                                      Anonymous, 20 Oct 2023Pls about Nokia G42 5GAs you have asked for, Nokia G42 5G is a good mobile for its specs. If you can lay your hands on it and use it (either your friend's or a demonstration piece of a dealer) to check for yourself about its display and performance, you can assure for yourself about whether you like it or not. If you like it, simply go for it. But, this is not a gaming device. Also try to get the 8GB-256GB variant. Nokia mobiles are really appreciable for its Stock Android and bloat free UI. Also, you'll not experience any annoying ads. If you like the display and its performance, this is the best mobile you can get for its asking price.
