Dearest quality seekers. Though huvavi doesn't cooperate in exchange of knowledge.But as a midranger not ascending nor decent with reference that doesn't come down in price is a midranger for those whom have capabilities of not enough income !! I have to.add that in X place , price was one fourth of today price in X place that even now can't afford even this price !!! It is made in 2017 which is right time to bring down the price....It is made by getting permission from Samsung ! Other reason of declining in selling is simology of making similarities of smartphones with deleting necessary default of smartphones to bring down the costs unrelentingly !!!? In X place $ 350 dollar Appleproduct is being sold $ 9000 which absolute majorities can't afford that brings down selling !!? Lack of compatible ROM and Rom ,lack of Bluetooth 5.1 plus its must auxiliaries, IR,NFC ,USB 3.r plus otg,using outdated USB 2 of outdated 1998 and some other reasons !!Not compatible battery and ....Hopefully gsmArena to progress of smartphones qualities and quality based on fact writing releasing the logical reasons with guts ! Justice Rights follows rights ....Thanks all .

The only phone I'll consider for my next phone is the 3310. every other phone are just behemoths, majority don't have headphone jacks, also the failure by manufacturers phone and headphone makers to make usb-c earphones to a/the standard. And of course I refuse to pay what they're asking even when they discount them they are still too expensive. Voting with my money they don't deserve it.

No small phones except iPhone, Google and Samsung, barely. If you want a reasonable size phone you have to pay a lot of money for it. Is there any manufacturer who will take that challenge?

I just "upgraded" from a pixel 3 which takes nice photos - if you dont want any bokeh effect but stutters, lags and freezes every now and then while offering less than 1 day battery life, at least to me. SO I bought the mi mix 3. It's defo not a phone for everyone, but it is missing from this list for sure. The mix 3 takes photos alike the pixel 3 + some pretty awesome bokeh, sports pixel 3 hardware + double the ROM + more RAM (goes up to 12Gb RAM if you need that) and costs as much as a pixel 3a. I would say it's on par with the mi 9 but it has 2 front cameras and only 2 main cameras, but no notch! If somone is in for new/old slider mechanism, this phone is defo a worthy allrounder for the very low price of 399€.
