The more expensive the phone, the better it is?

For 3 years I changed 4 phones. They took budget models up to $ 150-200, they even do not have a warranty period for one, they returned the production defect. Another one returned for warranty repairs 3 times as the warranty ended. The third child drowned completely. Now the fourth child is under warranty repair again. A friend says buy a normal phone for $ 300-350 and everything will be ok. I just need to call the bodies, write so climb on the Internet. read a book and sometimes watch a movie. I do not play games. Do you think it's worth it to fork out for an expensive phone. Is price a quality mark?

I would say there are brands that are forever blacklisted for me.

BQ, Micromax, Alcatel, Vertex, Fly, Digma, Irbis and other semi-underground Chinese. They should not be taken in any case.

The second category is high-quality, established brands - Asus, HTC, Meizu, Xiaomi, Samsung, Sony, Huawei, LG, for example. They usually cost a little more, but much better. I try to take smarts with Qualcomm processors. Americans are not so hot as the Chinese, although Kirin in Huawei and Exynos in Samsung and Meizu are also good.

Naturally, the price also has a role, so an expensive smartphone differs from a cheap one like Ferrari from crafts ...

But taking a very expensive device is not necessary, the best option is to consider the device in the price range of $ 200-300, for everyday use smarts for this price are perfectly balanced. Fairly good build quality, screen, performance and autonomy. Asus ZenFone MAX Pro M1 itself, took it for 250, like (but the older version, with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of ROM, the youngest 3/32 cost 12-13, now you can find for 10). Select the device according to the characteristics you need, and try to bypass any "left" brands. How to distinguish? Very simple. If the company does not make devices of the high-end segment at all (from 20k and above) and specializes mainly in state employees for 6 thousand, you should not take something from it. It is advisable to select smartphones with a Qualcomm processor. The optimal price tag for a "middle" class phone is $ 200-300, I do not advise taking lower than $ 150.

P.S. I used to work in a mobile phone salon and I know what I'm saying. Micromax and Alcatel were leaders in returns ...

"The more expensive the phone, the better it is ..."

Everyone knows a deeply erroneous error.

For “Expensive” - does not always mean “Qualitatively”.

And far from all that gold glitters.

Take the device with a minimum of 4 cores, at least 3 GB of RAM, and at least 32 GB of internal memory. , well, look at the battery for something, the capacity was 3500 or 4000 mah, well, on the camera 12-13mp, do not chase brands, the Chinese from xiaomi or from honor are not bad, and they do not bite at prices ....
