Thread 1755988

South American guy here. I'm looking for something to play games on (nothing graphically demanding, mostly stylized stuff like Brawl Stars and Clash Royale). Definitely need a good battery and at least 8 GB RAM. Storage is fine as long as it's 128 GB, but preferably 256 GB. Right now I'm eyeing the Poco X7 Pro but I'm willing to stretch my budget a bit if the difference is worth it.

In terms of pure specs you're not going to do much better than a Poco

Why do you need this much beef for these basic ass games? My 7-year-old phone with half the specs runs these no problem, and gives me no issues during everyday use.

>>1755988 (OP)
with that presumed budget you might as well get an actual game console

>>1755988 (OP)
Buy some slop for 300 you dont need more

>>1755988 (OP)
Poco loco

DO NOT buy Pooco phones. They're overheating mess. I made a mistake like this with F6. I actually had to buy a cooler to play on this pos phone without burning my fingers and games dropping frames like hell 10 minutes in.

HyperOS is also total crap full of bugs and ads you will regret it.

Pixel 9

Poco F6 Pro or F7 Pro. F7 Ultra is out of budget and F6/F7's 8s Gen 3 and 8s Gen 4 aren't worth it.

>8s Gen 3
Lmao

>>1755988 (OP)
A05s, unironically.

>an actual game console
>in 2025
lol lmao

>it has an IPS display that's immune to burn-in issues
>it has a micro SD card slot (up to 2 TB)
>it doesn't need a case because it doesn't have a fragile glassy chassis
>it has a fast CPU/GPU
>it has an objectively great price/performance ratio
>it has objectively great cameras
>it has an objectively great battery life
>it has a decent amount of RAM
>it has a 120 Hz refresh rate display
>it has a headphone jack
>it doesn't overheat unless you're in an area that's over 100 degrees Fahrenheit which is blazing hot
The Motorola G56 is objectively perfect!

This, Basedsung A serie phones also work well but you cant beat chink phones in the cost/efficiency department, of course you have to deal with the data vacuum OS but that is basically a given for smartphones at this point

I trust Motorola more than the Chinese phones.

>>1803858
My nigga!

>>1803344
>Dimensity 7060
lol
lmao even
Unihertz Tank 3/3 Pro or Ulefone Armor 33 Pro would be a better choice.

>>1803858
Motorola is Chinese now…

Still using my Samsung A52s 5G, the 778G completely mogs the 7060 and it was cheaper (better camera too). No clue what to get After this thing dies, they stopped adding headphone jacks to the A series. The back is falling off so I keep a case on always and the volume buttons fell out so I use an onscreen button.

Smartphones just keep getting worse and more expensive.

>the 778G completely mogs the 7060
No it doesn't, buster!

In real-world performance tests, they actually have the same speeds!

>>1812524
Country? You could try one of those meme rugged phones with upper midrange or flagship Dimensity chips. A lot of them still have the headphone jack. Other than those, the only other choices (Sony, Red Magic, Asus) are probably far too expensive, unless you get an older flagship.

>>1813888
For non-games sure. Games are far more optimised for Qualcomm's chips than other chips Android phones use, like MediaTek's.

>>1755988 (OP)
OnePlus 13r for $500. Don't cheap out. You gonna spend 3-4 years with your phone.

>>1814538
Australia (phone market is horrible here). I found a vendor that still has two refurbished a52s 5Gs. I'm going to just get them and install lineageOS (with gapps) when I switch and keep the other as another backup. Stick to what works until I can't, y'know?

>>1755988 (OP)
Just buy poco f7, better than x7 pro or buy red magic & asus rog phone

>>1798767
thoughts on the a07?

>>1824442
E-waste

>>1803344
Damn, i might actually get a Moto if it's that decent

>>1842345
Just do it!

>>1803344
This seems perfect to replace my note 9. Shame about the screen, but I think I can live with that.Thanks buddy.

>>1755988 (OP)
I have a Poco X7 and I can emulate MHGU for a couple of hours at 30fps and native res without going above 35°c.

>>1803344
>IPS in 2025
lmao

>>1852834
Not everyone is addicted to having green lines on the screen like you are.

>>1853413
Lmao what green line? Are you gonna be a schizo about devices you dont even use now?

>>1755988 (OP)
>x7
just get f7 one

>>1853413
I've been using OLED screens since 2019 and never had a problem with them

>>1854025
The biggest tech tip about them is not maining the same app for 5 hours a day on a phone you have for 3 or 4 years straight.
I've seen a friend who is glued to whatsapp and pokemon go and he had the whatsapp UI burned on the damn screen.

>>1853454
I certainly am going to be schizo about devices I see friends and family use.

>>1854025
>2019
Ironically the issue's a lot more prevalent on more recent OLED screens.

>>1803344
>>1854656
so is that a no on the Moto G Stylus

>>1854826
Depends on your budget, but you could probably get a phone with a better chip.

>>1777122
My Poco has never overheated but I guess it's probably different for SEAmonkey trash lol

>>1873637
Ìt's India with the infamously poor QC, not SEA. Do not get a device that's made in India.

But it's also true that HyperOS is bugged as fuck regardless of region.

>>1803344
Motorola glazer here and i bought motorolas for both me and my parents and these phones have been lasting for years without sucking gor a good price

Screens have a really good resolutions and cameras,and for gaming if you buy one that has at least 8gb of ram you can trust itll run 90% of games well like genshim and etc that are more heavy consuming,of course you can choose to go for even more than that to be sure to run them on max graphics
