Phones Ideas for a second phone?

[unclejamaal]

I’ll be getting an iPhone through work so no point in having two iPhones

So that leaves the option of having a personal android phone and I’m after some ideas on what to get.

Main requirements are

Great battery life - this discounts the Pixel
Face unlock which actually works - discounts the S23/24 series as I found face unlock never worked for me even after lots of tweaks , unless they’ve changed the software in s24?
Price - ideally max £500 (uk)
Great screen and camera

So this doesn’t leave a lot of choice except looking to Chinese models which I know little about

Recommendations anyone ?

Your next Samsung Galaxy phone could have Face ID-beating facial recognition tech if Metalenz's claims hold up

One sensor to beat them all

If the Samsung face unlock isn't working for you, then you should wait for this tech. Not sure it will be in your budget though. Your budget is much more along the Pixel or Nothing phone line, but those do not have the top tier specs you want, so some compromises need to be made.

Thanks

I think I’ll wait for a decent pixel discount before grabbing on

Did you get a second phone yet? If not: You may want to go with an iPhone. Easier if your work and personal phones are alike, because learning one means learning the other.
