Which smartphone should I buy?
Last change: 2018-12-27 – Copyright © 2018-2019 Hans-Georg Michna
Since I updated this article the last time, the smartphone landscape has completely changed. I used to buy used smartphones on eBay and refurbish them with the latest version of CyanogenMod. I picked smartphones with an excellent performance/price ratio and was thus able to use relatively powerful smartphones for a very low price.
Now the situation is that quite powerful smartphones are available as new for very good prices, so it makes no longer much sense to buy used ones. Therefore I will recommend a few smartphones that seem particularly attractive to me. As before I do not like Samsung phones because of their poorly programmed bloatware and because even their hardware is not always very good.
What makes the Nokia phones enticing is their good quality, their lack of bloatware, and their use of Android One, which should make system upgrades easier than on other phones, raising the hope of timely and long support from their manufacturer, HMD Global. (They bought the Nokia name, but their Nokia phones are still good.)
These Nokia phones have two SIM card slots, one of which can alternatively be used for a memory card. Check the specifications for the maximum memory size, which can differ between types of Nokia phones.
