I need one for general purposes only, NOT for gaming, so I don't really care about gaming-related features.

I'm going to buy it in Asia, as that's where I live (Vietnam specifically), and would appreciate any advice. ๐Ÿ™‚

Get a flagship phone from a generation or two ago, I'm still using my Pixel 5 and I love this phone and they're dirt cheap at the moment, both new and refurbished, because it's 3 generations behind

Thanks! But what newest features are missing there? Does Pixel 5 have anything useful the newer models don't?

[โ€“] jet@hackertalks.com 2 points 1 year ago

Pixel 5a has back fingerprint sensor and a headphone jack, plus it can run grapheneos

[โ€“] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Well, in my opinion the fingerprint sensor is far superior for one. Other than that it's a little smaller than current generation phones but I think it's a more manageable size than the current generation
