I plan to get a phone around RM700. Looking at Samsung A30, M20 and Xiaomi Redmi 7. All are 3GB RAM models.
Don't really care about screen or camera quality.
Looking for something reliable and durable and without any problems/lag.
Is Samsung still a good brand? Is it worth the extra RM200+? over the Xiaomi?

Just a bit worried if Samsung's quality has gone down.

I don't know about A30. The pros like others have mentioned but the con though put me off. Friend sold his after 3 months. Weak antenna. Many complaints on FB group as well according to him. This post has been edited by UnknownH: Aug 22 2019, 02:26 AM
