Recently bought f7 pro (not ultra). Seems good. Poco said will give 4 years of OS updates and 6 years of security updates. Not bad.
If don't care about specs tho, can have a look at Nothing phone. |

Most phone can last 5 years for upper middle range. The only thing is the OS update support might not go that far and battery need to replace at least once after 2 years. The CPU today is so much fast compared to last time.

QUOTE(Epci @ May 1 2025, 08:02 PM) Samsung A36 5G Either this or the A56. I'm still using my Samsung A34. Two more months can get new phone as contract for this phone expires. Samsung has long software updates. So if 4 years, would be good. If you don't have contract but still need cheap, just buy a new Samsung a34 or a35. Unsold stock previous gen got lots of discount. |

This budget, you need to go 2nd hand. You won't get something brand new that'll last 5 years. If you insist on brand new, you have to accept that the phone will last you 3 years at best.
