Changing mobile suggestion

LightKnow

Hi all 

I am tempted changing my mobile but stuck with choice - I kinda narrowed it down , thoughts? Anyone used or uses these ?

I was thinking getting either Samsung s24 or the fe version but not sure if Wana spend so much 

I was leaning towards Motorola 50 edge ultra or more budget friendly option the 50 edge fusion ( but I been reading slot reviews like delayed updates or patches, phone becoming unresponsive or clunky plus not sure how good the think shield and Moto secure is as I read it has ads ?? I find this weird for security feature plus some said it acts up and it not worth having)

The new nothing 3a , it looks absolutely stunning to me but am torn

How people are different, I just looked up the 3a and think it looks hideous.

I don't like it either. I think it's the look of 'the horizontal cameras.

Something of a marmite phone!

If you're looking for longevity, have you considered a Fairphone?

The new Samsung A56 is an excellent phone. Plenty of Samsung goodness and years of updates.

Be good to know what the OPs current phone is, and their budget for the new one.

I'm a Samsung convert, but others I know cannot stand their interface, layers of custom-ability with options for every bit of functionality.

Very happy with my S24 Ultra

I had Samsung phones for many years, but opted for a Pixel this time

I've installed Niagara launcher on my S24 Ultra just to simplify everything. As you say, some can't be bothered or a intimidated by the amount of customisation available.

Current phone is the iPhone SE latest one - was gonna get 16e but this whole privacy thing in uk put me off but I was gonna look past that however I hate face id on phones 

Budget 200 to £400 but willing to stretch to probably 650 most 

Am not fussed about camera as long half decent- for me the top priority is security , privacy and performance 


I seen fairphone on TV and seems decent but am not convinced on how reliable or sturdy it is 


A56 seems pretty good, but can only be bought on Samsung site ?

Used have pixel 3a but something put me off and never decided to go back with pixels

Big fan of the Pixel range. I think I've had a 4, 6a and a 7.
