So I came from using the OnePlus 5T which came in handy for around 3 years and after a couple of screen replacements. After doing some quick research, this device seemed good value for money around the 30k range since that was my budget.Key things that were important to me that I loved were:1) Camera: Was looking for a camera that works great in all conditions and most importantly in low light. I usually have human or food subjects and this camera does a brilliant job in low light and Bokeh as well. I've been asked once or twice which phone I use based on the pics I've clicked! Only one con is the pictures are whitewashed a bit with human subject appearing a lot fairer than they actually are. (Indians might like that) This is probably the biggest upgrade to my old phone.2) Large vibrant screen: I watch a lot of media on my phone so I wanted a large vibrant screen and the AMOLED with 120hz refresh rate and great daylight brightness does the job.Key things that were important to me that I liked were:1) Battery life: The battery is also a huge step up to my older phone as I can run YouTube with screen on for 8-10 hours easy. It easily survives a full day under normal use which is what I require. In case I run out of juice the 65W flash charge is incredibly fast and goes 0-100 in probably under an hour and 0-60 in 30mins.Things that disappointed:1) Although there are stereo speakers compared to my old phone, the sound isn't as loud as I like. It's fine in a silent room but in a lot of cases even switching on the fan reduces the audibility to some extent.2) 5G: Although the phone claims to be 5G it only comes in one band so fingers crossed over my network provider to offer 5G in the same band.Other noteworthy things are the fingerprint scanner and face scanner which are very accurate. I'm not a gamer so can't comment much about heating or performance but I believe other than 5G this phone is pretty future proof for the next 3 years.I also liked the finish of the body of the phone and the plastic case that came with the phone. Maybe one thing I really miss from my previous phone was the notification LED and alert slider.There are very few budget flagships out there which tick so many boxes in 30k but this would definitely be very high on the list!
