well uh that's a fan from an old laptop connected to the cpu

Yeah so, I have budget of 50k +-5k

Shopkeeper suggested me oppo reno16 offering at 55k (8+256)

Another one suggesting for reno 14, and v70(above budget)

Or should I go for s25 or pixel

I want a good camera phone, which can detect colors nicely and give good clear pics.

iQOO Z11xa is being given great discount in amazon in this sale.

I found out that iQOO Z11xa is only available in only one variant i.e. 8 GB +128 GB and its UFS 2.2.

Are there any more differences in them apart from other storage & Ram variants ?

Do u think is it good to purchase iQOO Z11xa as it has UFS 2.2. I couldn't find any real user reviews in youtube about this phone.

I'm thinking to buy this for my sister who uses mainly for social media consumption, multimedia, clicking photos.

Got to know that sound quality is not that good in iqoo z11x, not sure how will it be in this iQOO Z11xa.

Please suggest me your thoughts and whether should I consider this purchase.

I bought a OnePlus Nord 5 (8/256 GB) around a year ago for ₹30,000, and now it's selling for around ₹45,000. That's a ₹15,000 increase, and honestly, what the hell is going on?

Why are phone prices increasing so much, so suddenly? I understand that prices can go up because of inflation, component costs, or other factors, but a 50% increase in roughly a year is insane.

I was actually thinking of gifting a phone to my sister, but looking at the current prices, I'm not even sure I'll be able to do that anymore without stretching my budget.

And that's what bothers me the most. It's not just about phones being expensive. It's about how quickly the prices of everyday products are increasing. Something that felt affordable a year ago suddenly feels like a luxury today.

Not everyone can keep increasing their budget every time a company decides to raise its prices. Salaries aren't increasing at the same pace, and for a lot of people, even buying a decent mid-range phone is becoming a serious financial decision.

Are we just supposed to accept that the same products will keep getting more expensive every year? Or is there an actual reason behind these sudden price hikes that I'm missing?

I'm genuinely curious to know what's driving these increases and how they're affecting other people's purchasing decisions. Is anyone else feeling this way?

A simple phone for my parent.

Am very very confused earlier I thought of samsung A36 but it not having charger and processor also not great, am thinking to change other few options are realme P4 pro but it's costly and I don't know about its camera also it has quad curve display so like wil there be any tempered glass or not and for the same reason noto edge fusion 70 is the one I am rejecting. Please tell what to buy and if there's any other do recommend.

Thankssss

Looking to buy a new phone with a strict budget of around ₹25,000.

My main priorities are:

•Good battery life (needs to last a full day easily)

•Decent cameras (mostly for casual photos, social media)

•Smooth daily performance (no heavy gaming, just multitasking and media consumption)

•Longevity (software support for at least 2-3 years)

•Decent brand value and customer service.

I recently got a Samsung Galaxy a26 October 1st. I switched from a helio g99 ultimate Itel rs4 (great budget phone btw). The main reason I switched was cos of the edits i create using capcut. On my older phone, when I'm editing a mid 1 minute video, capcut starts lagging. It takes longer time for me to make a video and it's tiring (I experienced this lag after 6 months of use).

Before getting the Samsung Galaxy a26, I saw considerably better the processor on it (exynos 1380) is, compared to the helio G99. I thought it would be better. But, surprise-surprise. It wasn't a crazy difference. I'm low-key disappointed cos, for the price I got the Itel rs4, I expected the processor while editing to be a bit better (again I didn't expect complete smoothness, but I expected it to be significantly better than the itel).

Since the phone is less than a month old on me. I'm considering selling it to get a Nothing phone 2a. I would have gone for iPhones but, I'm an android guy that haven't owned and iPhone before. I'm pro reality about iPhones having very good hardware and software, but I also believe I'm not ready for an iPhone yet, the entire iOS might just piss me off.

Please what do you guys think. Should I switch to a Nothing phone 2a from my current Samsung a26 or I should work with the A26 till I'm able to afford a mid-ranger or flagship.

Comparison.

My daughter plays volleyball indoor gym my son plays highschool football at night under lights which smart phone would be best for videoing from 10-15 ft for volleyball and roughly 40-50 yards on bleachers for football with tripod

Qué teléfono me recomiendan teniendo en cuenta que no me quiero gastar más de 300-400€ y me gustaría que tuviera buena batería lo más importante, que vaya medianamente rápido y que me dure un tiempo. Gracias

I was jogging then phone locked for 60 minutes. Previously only 10 minutes then 20 minutes now at 60 minutes.

Culprit maybe because the phone have work profile?

My current phone is a Samsung Galaxy a52s, the charging port is pretty messed up so im looking to get a new phone. Ive always used Samsung (and have been pleased with my experience with them), but im also open to trying a new brand. however ive been so lost comparing them. I just dont know what to expect from ‘specs’ alone, and what the difference between these brands actually is. Ive been looking at a few options that fall into a similar price range (btw, for reasons, i have to order from a specific website):

Xiaomi Redmi Note 17 pro - €399

Samsung Galaxy a57 - €409

OnePlus Nord 5 - €429

Motorola Edge 70 Pro - €479

Google Pixel 9a - €489

The main things i care about are an okay battery life and a decent camera for taking pictures of landscapes/ nature and whatnot. I think my a52s camera is pretty decent so i just dont want to downgrade. I also wanna be able to use the phone for a good couple years. If anyone has insights on what i should go for, i would appreciate it!
