[** BBD NOW on 26/09 **] Plan for 2024 BBD and GIF Sale

[aashuuuu]

I’m right now using Moto Razr Ultra 40. I’m using it for 1Y 2 months or so. I didn’t like flip phone and wanted to change it during sale. My purpose would be very less usage and sometimes my kid will play some games and he will see YT. During journeys I will use it as tethering device.

Saw Pixel 8a on Flipkart as sale price and just wanted to get views on this.

Kindly share your usage review of Moto Razr 40 ultra..

 

[thiruvetti]

overall the phone is decent, but i'd suggest go for oneplus in this range, better processor and customer service imo.

Oneplus is plagued by greeline issues. So tread carefully

Me too looking for AC,
Mostly 1.5 ton with 3 stars, but without any smart features, and exactly these 3 brands.
Please share if you decide on something.
But am also planning to check offline and compare.

abhi list banaunga, I was looking for 5 star. Smart features not a priority

I had bought XM4 in 2022 for 16.5k during BBD

I loved the sound signature of those.
Unfortunately had to return those as they heats up my ears.
And my ears are super sensitive to ANC, after 10 min of anc use my head starts to spin not a good feeling. I use my all tws turning off anc, such a waste of tech

Have you tried xm5?

LG is really good in power efficiency.

As I told in my earlier post, that's not my primary mobile. I just use it for basic use and I get battery for 2-3 days on my usage. Panda Animations are cool and flip features are useful too. Phone doesn't lag and UI also looks clean. The only thing is you don't get proper accessories. Overall a decent phone.

LG is really good in power efficiency.

For me, experience with LG was so-so. The room is a bit bigger so LG, Samsung, Whirlpool don't work efficiently. Seems same might be the case for Voltas

Check my recent experience with carrier:-
Also note I'm using midea (carrier is it's parent company) for last 6 years and it has been working flawlessly

DO NOT BUY CARRIER newer models at any cost!
I bought their 1.5 ton 3 star 2024 model around march this year, didn't use it much since the weather didn't really allow it, started using it around may last week and it was making a horrible air blower noise. Service center guys weren't able to figure the issue out, we tried replacing the parts still the issue wasn't resolved. In the end I had to get a Letter for denial of service from carrier, submitted it to Amazon and got it returned for a refund (returned it after having it for 4 months). The whole process took more than a month!

I'd say if your budget is anywhere around 35K, go for either Panasonic/LG/Daikin

I'd have suggested panasonic, but since you aren't looking for smart features, I'd say go for LG! it's build quality is far better than voltas or any other similar brand in that range

They've got a no questions asked replacement policy afaik, overall at his budget i kinda find it as a very decent phone tbh

I've tried both, ANC is much better in xm5, sound quality is only slightly better.
Not worth the price difference imo hence im gonna stick with xm4 for now

If you are a believer in realme brand then it is easy pickings.. realme gt 6t is one the best phones in that segment.. don’t think anything else…

But for me Samsung m35 is primarily for :
1) an excellent battery back up.
2) very very good and bright and nice skin tone photos
3) a decent processor but in no way this is comparable to gt 6t processor or any good snap dragon processor.. but I still think it is much better than earlier exynos processors. If you are not gamer you won’t see any lag at least for a few years with some fine tuning settings , I did read quite a few reviews about this ..

4) Samsung built in call recording without any announcements and software support of 4 years..

These are only things I care about..

Don’t go for narzo series..
And moto phones are okay, but lacks in software support and battery also may not be that great

for Samsung m35 : how is the camera quality of front camera, i also heard that it is a bit bulky/heavy

pros that i have found interesting 6000mah battery and samsung call recorder

3. Max Android updates (longevity)
4. Long battery life
5. Max 5G bands
6. Medium size form factor
7. 3.5mm jack

While researching I came across Moto G34 & Samsung F15.
Need opinions/suggestions & and better alternative, if any…

Check Moto G45. I think Moto has minimum bloatware so perfect suit for this category.

Check out Realme Narzo 70 currently it's 15-16k but in the sale it will drop to 13k.

If it doesn't you can look realme 12x and narzo 70x

Samsung phones below 15k is not good at all .
Moto you will face lagging after few years

I bought g54 5g for my mom, the speakers are very low in sound. Heats up while video calls and that causes battery drain. Display is not oled but still feels great and bright.
