We are literally in TechTober yet the guide is of the brick Nokia era. Also remove the damn notification bell if you don't intend to update it after I've seen it.

LucaKirani, 09 Sep 2023Beat phones of 2023 yet posted in June 🤢Yep, it's being updated when new noteworthy phones (according to gsmarena's opinion, not yours) come out. What's so hard to understand?

But yes the higher priced devices offered those features and yes there are buyers who use those features daily too but not used by casual users.

For example, name me a $200/300 phone that has an S-pen, 120hz amoled screen, most powerful cpu and gpu, great battery life, 5 year software support, great picture and video quality, great sound... There is none.

Tyas, 30 Jul 2023Hahaha. Something russian and security can't be in one... moreKaspersky was ranked no.1 for years, and 10 places bellow comes every other av.
https://www.pcmag.com/picks/the-best-antivirus-protection
Look for why kaspersky is no longer ranked. Politics.
Used most of the other antivirus apps, Eset was not bad, others were weak and full of holes.

Buying a 1000 USD device is not worthy anymore as even the 200 USD device nowadays can give 5 year lifespan to a casual user.
Back in 2015 it was not possible hence some had buy above 300 USD device.
But nowadays spending such money is waste.
My first android phone was priced at 100 USD and i used it from 2013 to 2015, had to buy a new because of both battery degradation and software went old.
In 2015 i bought a 150 USD android phone and used it till 2020, had to change the battery 1 time in 2018 and the software went old in 2018 but the app support was there for my need.
In 2020 i bought a 200 USD android phone, using it still now and have no plan to buy a new one untill this goes old which might happen after 2 year from now.
So, i might decide to buy a new android phone after 2025.

Which one is the best deal for these prices? Please prioritize the choices if you can!
Poco f5 12g 256g for 370 usd
Poco x5 pro 8g 256g for 270 usd
A54 8g 128g for 270 usd
A34 8g 128g for 220 usd
Important factores for me: 1. Performance(i play sometimes but i'm not a pro gamer. smooth daily usage for about 3 years is more important for me) 2. Battery 3.camera
Thank you

If I may be allowed to ask a question, it is this.
GSMArena used to post good samples of Panorama photographs these phones all make, but no longer.
Can we have them back Please? Can we also be told their maximum possible size in pixels, and whether they can be made or not with the superwide cameras as well as the "standard" main lens.
Nowhere can I find such information which we should all have since, me, I can get Sweep Pans 5000+ pixels in height from a 2015 LG G4, but I cannot find a replacement with a wider angle of view.
Nobody can, because even the manufacturers themselves do not say....and these are supposed to be communication devices!
