For me it’s Motorola G72. It’s excellent for the price. The phone is super lightweight despite having a 5,000 milliamper battery. The UI is very snappy and animations are very smooth (high refresh rate). It supports double tap on the back plus all other neat Motorola gestures. The under display fingerprint scanner works extremely well.
I think the ASUS Zenfone has been pretty decent. Great battery, good form factor and has a headphone jack.
What turns people off is the two year updates, so unless you plan on switching to custom roms, its security lifetime is limited.
I was looking for this. once I went to zenfone, I never looked back. superb build quality, an insane amount of resources built in, and lineageOS or /e/ ready! hands down, best prones ever!
I’ve never used a Zenfone but a friend of mine is rocking a ROG phone 2. It’s the only phone I’ve ever seen with a display better than Samsungs. It’s also very fast and the stereo speakers are insanely good. I really wish to buy an Asus sometime but for now my Motorola Edge 20 Pro is too good to be replaced anytime soon.
