For me it’s the notification light you used to find on older phones, was particularly good to know if your phone was charged without picking it up

I'm going to say that today, even on lower-end phones, the screen, processor and camera are all pretty decent.

I have a Motorola G31, which cost about 200€ one year ago, when I got it. It has a Micro SD Card Slot and a headphone jack. The screen is plenty good (1440p,60hz) (why would you need 120hz or 4k on a phone) And the camera is also quite nice. It has no fancy features, but it takes pictures and that's all I need.

From my perspective, flagship phones are impractical and overpriced to say the least.

Ive been using 144/165hz monitors for years now and it's jarring going back to 60 hz

I only spent $290 Cdn after shipping and taxes for my moto g60s. I 100% agree, flagship phones are unnessesary.

120hz is amazing for scrolling through feeds, it is absolutely night and day. It is like turning off the annoying motion blur in a video game.
