Phone recommendations to replace iPhone 6.

Can look at chinese phones, top specs with price that are lower than the usual 2 suspects.

I’m thinking of replacing my iPhone 8 within the coming month. I’m deciding between iPhone 12 Pro and Samsung’s S21, but leaning towards the iPhone at the moment.

Personally I feel that while the iPhone 13 line is good (esp the smaller notch 🤩) I likely won’t make use of the OP camera and adaptive refresh rate that’ll warrant the price difference between the 12 and 13. It’s also habitual for me to bring powerbank around so the battery life isn’t too game changing for me. So between the 12 and 13, I’d def go for the 12.

As for Samsung Z, I don’t like the idea of smartphones w flip screens ah. But really that’s just personal preference.

If it comes down to Apple vs Samsung though. That’s a harder question. Apple’s expensive, much more so than Samsung (esp if you are very invested in their ecosystem). And Samsung devices look much better than the iPhone. But the iPhone doesn’t compromise on security and privacy. The Samsung is more prone to malware, and the OS isn’t updated as often.

At the end of the day, regardless of what people say, a lot of it is personal preference ah. Highkey any phone you can get on the market right now would be an amazing upgrade from your iPhone 6 HAHA

Hey Anon, I been in your situation last year deciding between 12 or 11. I would suggest if you love to stay in the Apple ecosystem, go for an iPhone 12. It's cheaper and have similar specs to iPhone 13. You won't feel the difference if you don't game on your mobile phone.

The upgrade from 6 is definitely worth your money!

I went from Samsung notes (1 and 2 if I'm not wrong) and switched to iPhone 6s plus. Batteries last longer, nw I can't return to Samsung XD.

Am on iPhone XR nw.. If you're not really looking at the latest phone, can always get the "oldest" current versions available!
