u/Equal_Commission_666

So after extenuating and tiring research, i’ve come to the conclusion that I’m either going to buy a Samsung S26 (with the exynos because I’m in Europe) or a Oneplus 15R. But now I read that oneplus is scaling back in the European market and i’m worried I won’t have long term updates/support.

I use the phone mainly for light social media usage, WhatsApp, WeChat, and I occasionally play simple games or with old emulators, what I’m interested in is a good battery, snappy processor thst makes the phone smooth, and long term reliability, as I keep my phones for 5-6 years.

I was going for the s26 but I learned that the Exynos is worse than the snapdragon. Then the 15R seemed perfect but it seems 1+ will sort of leave Europe and now I’m worried I won’t have long term support.. whst should I do?

So here in EU the base s26 has an E something chip instead of the snapdragon elite. Is it still worth ti, or a big downgrade?

I would like to upgrade my very old iPhone for an android phone, in the price range of 5-600€ tops.
I see the market is really overflowing with android phones nowadays, and I really don’t know how to decide between a nothing phone, a pixel, a realmi, an oppo or a oneplus…

I would like for the phone to be responsive, fast, reliable in the long term (i’ve used this iPhone 11 for more than 6 years and I’m happy with it) and sometimes play a few games, especially older-retro ones, since android can emulate very well.

Thanks a lot guys. I’m lost
