Sony Xperia phones still all have headphone jack and SD card slot.
The new 5 series is coming soon and looks great. The Xperia 1 is a bit pricey. The 10 Series is budget so you might find it underpowered.
Samsung A54 you'll also find underpowered if you're used to flagship.
If you get the S20 be aware that Samsung is not beginning One UI 6 to it, neither Android updates apart from security updates.
How does 10 series compare to thr s20 in yerms of performance? I like playing wild rift
The two phones are very close. The CPU in the S20 is about 30% stronger overall but it's a small difference. You'll easily be able to play your game.
Do what I did and just get the screen fixed man. The s20 fe is such a good phone, I can't justify the cost of a new model when this one is more than fine. Little to no battery or performance drop after 2 years.
Yea i did that initially lol but th3 screen i got was poor quality.
I might as well get a new one. Its an extra 100 but ill try to sell my current as is for $100
Ah fair enough man. I'll tell you my problem, is that as much as I'd like to try other brands like Sony or whatever, my watch, earbuds, and TVs are all Samsung and everything works pretty well together (for the most part), so I'm hesitant to potentially fuck that up.
Keeping this post up since there are already some responses below, but I'd just flag rule 2 in the sidebar and that we ask questions and suggestions seeking to be posted to !askandroid@lemdro.id instead. Thanks!
Oh snap ok will do next time!
No worries, thanks so much! There's also a list of other communities on lemdro.id at the bottom of the sidebar just below the rules, in case you're interested π.
Samsung a54 is a good one. 256gb with sd card slot.
