Personally I feel my phone is quite worthwhile for near flagship. 

Oppo x8 512gb. Still got 2 left on mister mobile.

More suited for one handed use. 

 

 

Mine is flagship, India made Motorola Edge 60pro (SG unicorn) for ~$500 and, also, very happy. Night photos are really good, for me, and the battery can last me three days😁

Because it's Indian, English UI is better than the China made stuff.

need some advice,, which is the better Android phone now?

Was looking at Xiaomi 17 Pro Max but seem nothing from the official Xiaomi store here yet.. those parallel import at Shopee can buy or not?

Can consider Oppo Find X9 /pro which was launched recently. It has a good battery life. But then you missed out the promotion which ended few day ago.Can see what they have for the coming 11.11.

Else take a look at X8 as mentioned by Lala81.. it was launched last year.

I watched  the reviews and read the specs. It's a good phone, well spec Ed for it's price. UFS 4 and seems like a better camera than the Samsung range. 

But it's only considered an upper tier mid range phone. The chipset is different. 

It's a smart buy though if you don't mind no Warranty. It's not far behind a Samsung S24 FE in terms of speed and camera quality probably same or slightly better.

Maybe should have said "ranger topper", but honestly, I can't see why I would want to pay double or more. Speed, Battery, Screen, etc. are all up there so maybe I just can't notice the difference 🤭

Technically, does come with warranty.

It doesn't matter for most people, you are right.

The main thing would be the ufs4 storage which makes it feel more snappy to use. 

Very large battery. 

 

Definitely not in sg bah. No one uses motorola in sg. There isn't even grey sets for export. zero sales even on Shopee/lazada.

Yeah.... unicorn. I knew that already 3yrs ago when I bought my S30pro online from China, so all I did this time was upgrade model and ROM.

When I visited the IT show at Suntec early this year, one girl from StarHub stopped me to talk about corporate phone contracts and asked me only, "Do you have iPhone?", no, "Samsung?", no....... then gave up. I showed her my moto and she actually called over half her stand colleagues, "Look, look at this!" 🥹

If I do need warranty, which is rare, then yes, need to give back to my friend.......... was on holiday a few weeks ago in Bali and was too nervous to check the IP68 in the pool, but one day. 🤭

This guy is damn good siah. 

Subscribed and liked his video. Crazy dedication into debunking battery charging myths. 

Best tech video in a long while.
