Never buy a Samsung phone with Exynos or say S888/8 Gen 1 (as those 2 are fabbed at Samsung foundry & have same issues as Exynos). Honestly, among current Samsung phones, I recommend just M15 5G for budget buyers for don't want Chinese phones & next good phone is S23 at 50k.

To state the obvious, OP12 is one the best choices around 60k, esp considering size & weight aren't an issue.

Moto & Xiaomi have too slow updates to be worth paying 35k+. OP is a more premium brand over iQoo & Realme from BBK's camp. Oppo & Vivo are always a poor value for money choice because of higher margins for middlemen (can blindly ignore them at any price segment IMO). UI for all BBK phones are similar, so they will always be inferior to Samsung, Nothing & Pixel's UI for me. NP3 with 8 Gen 2 would have been a compelling choice but alas it does not exist. Pixel uses SoCs fabbed at Samsung fab, so poor efficiency.
