My S23 battery's dying, what new phone should I get?
Getting new phone after 3 years. Nothing changed much, eh...So situation in Austria:
Google Pixel 10 Pro 289 €
Honor Magic8 Pro 419 €
Xiaomi 17 Ultra 549 €
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra 639 €
Vivo X300 Pro 5G 599 €
iPhone 17 Pro 699 €
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 739 €
So I was checking out prices at my provider and it kind of looks weird. My Samsung phone is 3 years old, it works fine, but battery is garbage... should I wait for something like Pixel 11 pro or just pick one now?
S25u is not much cheaper then S26u to follow "buy last year flagship for much cheaper".
Magic8 pro is all over shilled to max. And it seems it is not that good as the people getting it for free say it is.
Iphone 17pro looks like fair priced, but I never had Iphone in my life and I am not sure would I miss some Android stuff I take for granted. Considering it because lots of friend have Iphone and never looked back. It seems camera and battery is also fine and it is more less bulletproof in future trades or sale since they keep their price more then Android phones.
Pixel 10pro price looks like too good to be true. Never used Pixel before. People say battery is bad and stuff like that. Maybe better wait for 11pro even with this low price...
Xiaomi... I always think their stuff is half baked. Notifications never coming and ads poping up... and people say it's more camera then a phone. Not really positive for me. Also the price is pretty high for Xiaomi, but I guess it is still better choice then Magic8 pro...or not?
Vivo X300pro has unusually high price. But it seems to be one of the better chinese phones. But with this pricing it should be better to add some and get Iphone 17pro or S26u (I believe). Also it is more expensive then Xiaomi 17u and Honor Magic8 pro...weird
