Redmi Note 6 i think!

but it's gonna be difficult find one with dedicated Micro SD slot! and also one with "Good Camera".

but my suggestion would be increasing your budget a bit & going for Mi 8 Lite!

Thanks for the suggestion bro. What do you think about this one?

Mi 8 Lite also doesn't have dedicated sd-card slot :(
Mi A2 Lite is an Android One Smartphone, but it's processor is a bit old now, you can look at its other sibling "Mi A2" for arround 34K which is also an Android One device, and has Snapdragon 660 Processor, 4GB RAM, Good cameras for Midrange, but it also doesn't have an Micro SD slot or Headphone jack!

So for me either it's Mi A2 or Mi 8 Lite! or even Redmi Note 5 or 6 as both have almost identical specs!

You can also look at Huawei/Honor's midrange smartphones like Honor 8x, Y9 2019 etc they all have large displays, big batteries and expandable storage options.

Thanks bro, already using Honor 8X but its giving some issues recently...maybe should get it checked from service centre as its still under warranty i think...

But need a backup phone in any case...Will look at your recommendation. Thanks ! :)

Wait for the Redmi Note 7. It's going to be the best budget phone you can have at that price. Not sure when it's going to launch in PK though. It's always late. The phone is already available in many other countries, just no in Pakistan :confused:

Hi bro if you live in Karachi you can goto Metro at university road and check Mi A2 Lite and the Note 6 pro, They have them both on display. I used them both and I'm looking forward to buying the Mi A2 Lite aswell. I only used them for a couple of minutes but the thing I could differ was that they both had good build quality no chinese feel. The Camera was a bit better on the note 6 pro but the Mi A2 lite doesn't disappoint either. It had no lag and touch was silky smooth.
I would buy the note 6 pro if it didn't have the MIUI skin on it.

And that's the problem. It was not supposed to be this expensive. I thought it would've been 25k or something. How much tax r they imposing on dem lower-midrangers?

Is there any hope that this insanity will stop in the near future? Coz I cannot for the life in me make myself pay for such overpriced stuff. I understand that our currency has gone down the drain but, to add more taxes and other BS to milk poor awam? Nah homie, this ain't for me. I'm better off just replace my S7 edge's aging battery to get some more miles out of it.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.
