Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a second hand phone (Budget around $400aud, ~ 1kMYR or ~$260usd)
My dream phone has:
- Dual Sim (preferably at least one esim)
- USB C with OTG (preferably at least usb3)
- 2 usbC ports would be extra nice to have (allow me to dream)
- 3.5mm headphone jack (preferably 24-bit/192kHz)
- microSDXC slot (preferably dedicated)
- if not dedicated then one where sticking the Sim chip to the SD card hack works
- decent custom rom and with it android 15 support!!
- at least 8GB RAM
- not a potato for a camera
- battery life to last bored geeks day
- at least a work day of music and some comics and some brain rot on the socials and when I get home I got 20% left
Nice to have would be:
- ok Selfie camera
- fully charged in a hour
- 5G
- wifi 6
- a decent GPS chip
Phones I'm currently kinda looking at:
- Sony Xperia 1 IV
- insufficient custom Rom support, 2 guys are working on a linage port
- Sony Xperia 1 iii / current favourite
- ok custom rom support, bit old, unsure about camera quality
- Poco x5 pro (5G)
- Samsung A72
I'm a big fan of OnePlus, had the 1 and 7 but hate the trend towards no headphone jack and no SDcard support and then not even a second USB port
I used LinageOS a while back and quite liked it ... On my last phone I used YAAP and loved it
Cheers for reading ... PLS drop your 2 cents below
Cheers for pointing out that there are still OnePlus phones with jack(low quality but better than nothing) and card reader.
Not usb3 but whatever
I just found the newer version of it https://m.gsmarena.com/oneplus_nord_ce4_lite-13166.php This one and the identical us version are available around me and look great
Time to find out if there decent custom rom support
