My 6 yr old poco f1 got stolen so i need a new phone and no phone existing can match the price and specs so i would like some suggestions. I am a casual gamer genshin probably everyday for half to one hour. A good camera is always a flex, am a bit confused about the existing options in this price range as there are so many. Thanks in advance!
Phones advised by others :- s21fe, a refurbished i phone 12/13 , moto edge 50 pro , one plus nord ce 4
 
Moto edge 50 pro has good camera, good processor and good battery backup. I'm also considering buying it for my sister
 
Is Moto putting the Glance stuff on Edge series phones? I got that on a G32 I bought for someone else. I shook my faith in them tbh, it can only go downhill from here. Nothing is the only company safe from that now I guess.

As far as I know, there's no bloatware in moto edge 50 pro and even if there was, you could just de-bloat them.
 
Comparatively, Moto edge 50 pro is a better choice when compared with the nothing 2a in terms of processor and front camera. Additionally, the moto has 3.1 USB while the nothing 2a is equipped with a 2.0
 
Here's an unpopular opinion : Poco X6 Pro. You could get the 12GB RAM variant for 27.5K at flipkart. In terms of performance, it beats every other phone in this segment by a landslide. Just don't expect to be able to flex with the cameras though. One major annoyance is Xiaomi's Hyper OS and it's usual crap-ton of bloat. If you are willing to spend half a day tweaking and removing all those unnecessary stuff, you'll be left with a snappy device. Also, if you are concerned about privacy, use a firewall to block everything except the essential services and the apps that you would use. If you can't afford to lose too much time setting up the device and want a great out of the box experience without compromising your privacy, go for Moto edge 50 pro as suggested by the people above.
