whats your budget for new phone? otherwise people recommend all the way to iphone 17 promax ultra 5tb
redmi is ok. consider redmi 15 instead of note14 at rm700, you have plenty of choices, including use back vivo
Redmi 15 has a big size, thick bezels, no headphone jack, no stereo speakers, no sd card slot etc. and i don’t like it. What choices do you have? What do you mean by "use back vivo"?

for me sure upgrade, its the best value iphone currently. of coz if u dont care all of that then no point. 120hz display, bigger 6.3inch display, cameras (if u care), faster a19 vs a16, AI (its garbage rn), better battery life, at least 6-7 years of os update
The specs are meaningless to me. The iPhone 15 never go outside of je house. It's just sitting in the house I only turn on to approve payments I check if got is update if got I install. It has two bank apps, insurance apps, EPF edge browser app. It dies not even have WhatsApp. I changed to iPhone 15 from 1iphone 7. Cuz Maybank app no longer support the OS.
Yupe I don't use app for payment outside of the house. Only credit card. Debit card also payment disabled.

Wait for Redmi note 15 if you can.
Use back vivo because your existing phone is vivo Get y series

Feel like under utilized the iphone hardware and technology leh, what is your main phone?
I sprayed screen cleaner on my Vivo V9 screen and wiped it with a microfiber cloth. The next day, it started showing a ghost effect, then vertical lines, and eventually change its color. Which one should i choose: sending it to a technician for repair or buying a new Redmi Note 14 5G (within my budget)? I'm worried the technician might do something suspicious to my Vivo V9 during around the repair which takes about 30 minutes and costs around RM150. I also can't use CIMB OCTO because my Vivo V9 doesn't support Android 10 and above. Should i switch to another bank like Maybank without buying new phone?

Cannot lah aifon. Everything cannot do. I need freedom on my phone. Aifon extremely restricted n the least productive phone. You just go count how many clicks just to faking delete one SMS! Wtf!
HMD was producing Nokia phones for almost ten years. Now people know them, they are producing phones under their own brand.
HMD human mobility devices is from Finland also. They had one XR Nokia phone made in Europe, Romania to be exact.
My hmd phones look like this. Total n utter freedom!

I have own or use any China phone before. I don't know. Can you even get pure android on any China phones.
If you want a pure Android phone, isn’t a Google Pixel good for that?

Redmi Note 15 has a curved screen and i don’t like it. I think I'll choose to replace my Vivo V9 screen since it's still usable.
I'll also create a new Maybank account as MAE by Maybank2u doesn't require android 10 or above. This way, I can keep CIMB for saving larger amounts of money without much spending and use Maybank for online transactions. Is this a good idea?

Pity, only the poors need to think this deep.
It's not about being poor. Even if i had the money, I wouldn't spend it mindlessly.

Redmi A5 is too low spec for me. how about Redmi Note 14 5G within my budget?

Google already faked up that pixel brand so bad I am not going to be near that phone. You go n check their earlier mideks of pixel.
Proved that the are a software company n did not n do not know how to make hardware.

looks like windows phone leh. Finally someone say the truth about iphone. Many ppl will hate you. Many years ago a colleague ask me to backup his iphone contact. I think is iphone 4s, pukimak try til I damn dulan. Now dunno if still annoying as ever but from you description to delete a sms, I also can feel the frustrations

It wont be long until MAE will require at least android 9. I dont think it worth it to repair a 7 years phone, and u r taking a risk on the quality of parts/repair work as well.

it is time, please change phone, the world need phone to do anything like china future cyberpunk chongqing, everything qr code, money transfer, even do transaction also need go thru phone, the world changed since around 2010 when the MSOS sms appear

Do you have a source confirming that MAE will require Android 10 or above in the future? My Vivo V9 is still usable and it just has a screen problem.
if you are a vivo fan/supporter. just get new vivo v60. vivo v9 already stop the OS support for quite some time.
Vivo V60 is beyond my budget.
