Everything is good except ram, 4GB is unfortunately not enough on 2024 because apps are bloated
No kidding.
I root partly so I can manage memory better, and 4 is tight, even with my micro managing it.
But no wireless charging. :(
All I dream for is a phone with a low-mid range power efficient CPU, NFC AND, wireless charging. And I guess root.
Flagship phones have all of those, but get ass battery life when doing things like maps on a bright day. Cheaper phones end up doing so much better, but they never have NFC and QI.
You don't get wireless charging in Upper midrange smartphones. Lower midranges have zero chance. Some brands like infinix are changing that. If that catches on, it will be cool. Slow wireless overnight charging will be very convenient. You already have fast 60-120w wired charging for your quick charging needs.
I want wireless charging for when I put my phone in the phone mount in the car. Plugging in a cable in that mount is such a pain in the ass, plus I can't have my phone in the position I want with a cable sticking out.
Can we just have a phone that has less fancy build materials, less fancy design, but a wicked camera? I hardly care about any of that other stuff. I just want a good camera.
My pixel 4a was great for this
Realme 12 Pro+ does what you're asking for but availability is limited to a few countries. Design may still be considered fancy though.
