Not looking for me personally, so leaving the specs/features open, and generally interested in what people might recommend.

Imo there’s almost always some surprising budget phones floating around to learn about. Only condition I might add is that preferably they’re from 2022-2023, and if not, mention their release year to help know its version/update situation.

    in that segment i always go to the moto g series, the current iteration (between 200 and 300€) is more than fast enough for me and they come with an unlockable bootloader and have normally a good custom rom support.

      I would normally have agreed, but the last one I bought was TERRIBLE. I think it was 2022 version and they had problem sourcing chips, I think they used a Mediatek chipset and performance was unuseable.

      That sounds good, I’m currently using a Redmi Note 8 which is still good but it seems its successors aren’t that well suited for custom ROMs. So when this one dies I’ll look into those
