Generally, for me it would be Xiaomi and Samsung. Both have decent features at a decent price. I mean, they can run some games without too many problems or open TikTok.

    literally a dumb phone is enough

    Not to:

    • Browse the web
    • Check my bank balance
      • Tap to Pay
    • Use most any chat service (including open-source ones)
    • Take a reasonable picture
    • Listen to music (Brining another non-streaming player isn’t a reasonable trade off for most anyone)
    • Remotely manage my home network (admittedly less “normal phone things”)
    • The list goes on…

    While I would love to be a Luddite and say I don’t need a smartphone, there’s just a swath of convenience that you can’t get any other way.
