    I’m finally okay with researching thinner phones, I feel like a modern phone has enough punch compared to just some years ago. Sure, a bigger battery would be nice, or a more effective CPU but it’s sincerely okay IMO.

      Even mid-range smartphones have been “good enough” in the last ~5 years in terms of device performance.

      Flagships used to be distinguished by camera quality, but this benefit is not as noticeable as it once was.

        Yeah I put a margin there :-) mostly because some years ago you could get good midrange phones but there was a lot of crap around too. I changed my like 5-6 old mid range (good one) for a 2 yo “flagship killer” (so not really a flagship) for the camera (Leika vs cheap crap :-) and well it’s scrolling a bit more fluidly… Yeah that’s about it.

        It has more storage, ram etc, it’s close to my daily PC driver…
