very tempted to get.. should be around 550 after coins Cashback and assuming sell Fitbit at 130 only..

I understand what you are saying.. but screen refresh rate is very important to me.. one of the most important actually as the screen is something I interact with every single time I pick up the phone.. .. but I guess they cannot put 90hz on the 6a if not noone will buy the 6 already..
You already answered yourself... Dont get it

I can't go back to 60hz... So many good phones around the corner no need to cash in first.
It makes me wonder how u all survive on phones with 60hz last time ah? :s13:

Refresh rate on screen not important to me tbh, i value battery life more. And even with ltpo2, battery life still takes a hit. So it really depends on what u really want and what u really need

The only 120hz phone i will go with is iphone. They released 120hz late, but they did it well with great software optimization and the battery life on 13 pro max is damn solid for a 120hz phone. At least i don't need to live with battery anxiety running 120hz

haha.. I switched my phone to 60hz for the whole day to see how long I will get used to it..

tbh.. I really missed my p6.. it was a really great user experience with stock android..

btw.. how's the battery life? better than the standard p6? the p6 had pretty good battery life imo..

Like how people survived playing on Gameboy, Gameboy light, Gameboy color, SNES, PS1, PS2, PS3 then now PS4 and 5. :o

Once you go black higher refresh rate or better graphics, you can't go back. :frown:

I feel is on par for now. Still need to test more as android battery life settles down after a week. But the camera is the best at this price range hands down

Fp sensor is way better on p6a though

Haha.. ya.. camera I think no horse run despite using such an old sensor.. in fact I read it out performs the 6 and 6 pro in certain scenarios..

Lol.. if I really get the 6a I will be same as u.. f3 and 6a side by side..

Glad to see you're enjoying your 6a!

The price proposition is also very good so it's great you can tolerate the 60hz screen.

Every part from P6 to P6a is a downgrade isn't it?

Unless u value smaller screen holding size or else I don't think there's anything better. Maybe battery life but doubt will be astronomical :o

Or wait for 7 or 7a nx yr :crazy:

If sub 500 mayb can consider
Where to find 500ish phone now for such decent quality cam and performance u tell me. Even Samsung phones are so ex for midrangers. Iphone mini also more than double the price...

Unless can wait few mths then wait for 2nd hand market :o
