At least for the next few years, I am pretty firm on needing a jack on my device.

I am currently using an LG v60, and while nice, it’s starting to show its age.

Any suggestions on where to go next?

I was looking at the ROG phone, and while it does seem very nice, I feel like it is a bit much as I don’t game on my device at all.

Are there any good phones I should be looking at?

Thanks!

    Sony Xperia phones?

    Not sure if you can still get a Samsung A52s. That’d be a nice pick if you still can get it. It’s what I use and it’s one of the few with the trifecta of features I was looking for: 3.5mm jack, memory card slot, and OIS in the main camera.

      I’ve actually heard really good things about this.

      Just wasn’t sure about if the SD865 was already feeling sluggish to me, the Samsung midrange would feel even slower.

        I don’t find it slow, it does what I want.

        Think about it, easily 70% of the world’s smartphone users are on something like a Snapdragon 600 series or lower, and they use it as a main computing device; it may not be blazing fast but it’ll get the job done.

      I’m hoping the EU’s new battery law will mean all countries will get Sony Xperias with removable batteries, though I realize it’s probably too much to expect.
