Which Android phone to buy?

[rerear]

With the Chinese phones camp myself, but there is problem with all the launcher apps being very unstable with the swipe up and hold gesture, to get to your recent apps.

No such problems with Pixel etc. This from what I understand has no fix yet, also widely acknowledged by the launcher authors.

Can't live without Chinese phones' quick charge though.

Using hyperos 3 no problem with the recent apps gesture. Super smooth animation. Actually few years ago miui also no problem.

Enable the grey bar at bottom of screen will improve that particular gesture speed.

[MangoCAT]

Nothing much to reco unless pixel fan (non fold)

My Xiaomi 12S Ultra refuse to die or let green line appear and the Honor Magic V5 is just too attractive. Loving my new Honor Magic V5 now. The unfolded screen is totally worth the upgrade!

Vivo appears to be the current best selling brand in China. Always tot it's some low quality subsidiary brand of oppo.

Honour at rank 9 iirc. Apple second, Huawei third.

I think xiaomi is still the most durable. But the pro max back lcd should be damn easy to damage.

Oneplus 15 is on the way. Chinese version launches this month if I am not wrong, global version might come out by the end of the year.

After samsung green line issues abandoned the brand liao. Go for redmi my 1st china hp. Ok so far

So ts have you made ur decision?

Been using it since July.
Can say it is quite good, especially when scanning QR code to make payment. It respond much better than Samsung A series. Price wise it is cheaper. Specs wise is much better.
Unfortunately the mfg quite short sighted, only 2 years major updates.
