First new phone in 7 years, what's your suggestion?
I had my Huawei P10 for approximately 7 years now, it's served me well but in the last week or so has started acting up and I've made the decision it's time to let it retire.
In the last 7 years I've not really concerned myself with what's going on in the phone world, but as I'm researching I'm finding that it's proving difficult to find the right phone for me.
I don't need a super powerful phone that can run games. I need a solid day-to-day one that has a good UI, and a battery that'll last at least the day. Preferably with a good camera to go with it.
I've looked at the Google Pixel 10 Pro, but heard about about networking issues it has? As well as the battery life being terrible (7 hours constant use doesn't sound terrible to me though?).
Samsung S25/S25 Ultra has come up a lot, but I've honestly never been a fan of Samsung phones. However that is me going back 10+ years when all iPhone users used to ridicule "Samsung" users. So I have perhaps wrote it off prematurely.
Then there's the phones such as the Oppo Find X9, Oneplus 15 and Honor Magic Pro 7. I'm not overly familiar with any of these brands, and have heard different selling points about each. Some the camera isn't the best, some the battery life is great, some the UI leaves a bit to be desired.
And that's just me looking at phones released last year.
I'm based in the UK and my budget is £800 but I'm happy to spend a bit more if it's going to get me another phone that'll keep my occupied for a few years.
Any help would be much appreciated 🙏
