If you’re not a phone enthusiast then I think any low end budget phone with long term support should be fine, like the S23FE or IPhone SE. I think the biggest trap is falling for low end phones with a lot of specs but offer little support or shady OS support.

Google’s claiming that they will ensure parts through iFixit. But the problem is whether Google can be trusted to deliver on it’s promise

Luckily I don’t need a buying guide because I only buy phones with completely smooth screens, I mean without notches or holes. Phones with notches and holes are utterly ugly. So I only have a few options like the iPhone SE, Rog Phone 7, or Sony Xperia series.

I have lived in the Apple Garden since the iPhone 5 along with my Apple Watch, iMac, iPad, Apple TV over the years. If I was to leave the Apple Garden it would be to the Google Pixel.

what about the eco-system of other products like laptop, AppleTV or ipad or Airpods or Apple Watch?

If I can summarise to 4 categories as of today,
1. Anything Apple
2. Anything Android (mid-high end)
3. Anything budget phone (mostly Android and anything that just works, usually less famous brand)
4. Anything foldable
So yea. Hope this is much clearer.

I need afforable phone with 200 mp or 1″ main camera at 2 – 3 million IDR ($130 to $195). Just one rear camera, a simple front camera, a not so good speaker, screen, etc. But it has microSD slot (dual slot should be better). And also important it has to be in XDA Forum — rom development. The soc is just barely enough to support 200 mp and 1″ and running instagram, tiktok, whatapps almost instanly for a few years to come with Android 19 or more?
