There are many ways and tools to choose your next device, but some are better than others. How do you do it?

I’ll begin - I tend to use Kimovil, however it lacks pricing for many devices and thus makes the process harder. Has many filters though, from headphone jack to different 5G and 4G bands.

    GSMArena has nice phone search functionality, I was using it often when thinking about upgrading, but to be frank I bought 2 of my last phones basically on release date based off specs, unboxings and first impressions I saw online, even not full reviews were online, those phones were:

    • Motorola One Vision - May 2019 - 128GB of UFS storage, modern punch hole display and OIS equipped camera sounded cool, unfortunately the camera was kind of sub par, slight zoom resulted in garbage photo, also apparently Motorola couldn’t optimize for exynos because despite somewhat satisfying performance, stuttering was frequent
    • OnePlus Nord 3 - July 2023 - powerful SoC, 16GB of RAM, OnePlus declares 3 years of software support, fast 80W charging, looks nice on paper, my only gripe is battery drain but they keep optimizing the software
