Samsung phones are overpriced and u can get better phones with the same price, just check the specs and review online. so Huawei nova 2i or 2s is better

Huawei phones certainly do have the nice hardwares. But the question for a person who is wanting a phone that would last for as long as possible, are Huawei phones durable and lasting? Samsungs are overpriced but they are up there in the market for a reason.

Samsung phones last long? lol.... careful battery explode.

But do Huawei phones last long tho? I wanna buy a phone that would last me atleast 2 to 3 years

Sorry for recommending a phone not in your list, but do look at Mi A1. This will most likely last you more than 2 years in terms of software updates.

better use Smasung.
I use P9...1 years + motherboard burn...
P10 only use 4 month....already prob.

the J7+ is a lag fest with the MediaTek SoC. Do not recommend at all. On the other hand, give a look at Mi A1 and G5S Plus. The Nova 2i is a decent phone but battery life isn't all that great despite the large battery

Hi, but mediatek chipset should be ok for those mid range phone?

I'm not so familiar with xiaomi and motorola phone. but heard xiaomi phone can't last long. Thats why i'm thinking about this samsung and huawei. The rm200 promotion for the j7+ really gain my attention.

I tested the J7+, it's kinda sluggish. Well kinda expected when you slap on Samsung's Experience UX on a subpar SoC. It just wasn't optimized for this kind of SoC

Samsung and Huawei are known for making good flagship phones but their mid-range phones, especially Samsung are subpar compared to Motorola, Xiaomi etc. Oh yes, try avoid that Mediatek chipset for now.
