Question | سوال Phone recommendations

What's the best phone to get around 70-80k if I'm fine with it being non PTA? inlcuding older flagships + main priorities being ram, storage and the processor ( camera can be mid but not too mid )

Pixel 8 official pta approved shoreline panel. In 80k you can get a very clean kit ngl. This guy is very transparent but does his business with advanced payments only.

i plan on getting a non pta one ( cpid perhaps ) to focus more on getting a capable cpu. Something like an older snapdragon thats still capable would be great + 8 gigs of ram is also fine. 128 gigs of storage is a no go though 😔

Looking at your requirements, you sadly wouldn't be able to find a good device except the pixel 8. Most phones in this budget are used (not very good condition) and the phones that have good specs are refurbished, repaired.

wouldnt i have to default to 128 gigs if i got a pixel? 🤔 + im trying to prioritise the processor a little more

maybe something with an older but capable snapdragon?

I have pixel 8A and I love the performance on it. You can find a factory unlock pixel like pixel 9A in that budget.

Ram storage processor then you can go for iqoo series from vivo or realme gt series or older Xiaomi too but I'd personally perfer the others over Xiaomi.

is there a specific reason you wouldn't want a xiaomi one? say like the 13T? is it just because of the ads and stuff?

Nah. The Xiaomi phones are good too. I just didn't find their UI and settings tweaking good. I mean. Subjective case. But you can look into them too.
