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™‚

I checked GSMarena for the most popular <$200 Android phones with decent specifications.

The top results are:-

  • Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 (6GB RAM, 128GB HD, Snapdragon 4 Gen 1, 48MP camera)

  • Samsung Galaxy A14 (6GB RAM, 128GB HD, Mediatek MT6769, 50MP camera)

  • Realme C53 (6GB RAM, 128GB HD, Unisoc Tiger T612, 50MP camera)

  • Tecno Spark 10 Pro (8GB RAM, 256GB HD, Mediatek Helio G88, 50MP camera)

Personally I'd go for the Redmi Note 12 because of the better processor.
