400€ isn't a bargain if you ask me. There are totally capable smartphones for under 200€ these days. I'm using a Motorola G15 for 160€ right now. It has a headphone jack.

Indeed, posting this from a Moto with A14 that I bought a while back for just under 100€, it works fine.

400€ is double the most I would pay for a new phone.

bargain

only runs a15

400€

You know you can get a pixel for 500€, with 7 years of updates, right?

And it doesn't have the terrible system performance of the MediaTek.

How is Pixel battery nowadays?

[–] limerod@reddthat.com 2 points 13 hours ago

Every generation of pixel A series is mixed in controversy. The regular pixels don't have good battery life and charge slowly. After 200 charge cycles they further reduce the battery capacity and charge speed until 1000 charge cycles.

Avoid pixel if you care about battery longetivity.
