OPINIONS

I'm not in the market to buy a new phone, but I'm always intrigued in the phone market and stumbled across this subreddit. I have a nothing phone 2 and it feels 1000 times better than my old phone which couldn't run clash royale and would crash often. Still, I want to know, if I were to improve what would be my best option. I hardly game on my phone, but if I do it's a lower stress game (CR for example). I mainly use my phone to text, listen to music and watch movies. I could care less about phone camera. Because of this I was brought to the conclusion of OnePlus 15 r, xiaomi 15t, but I was wondering if anyone has any other thoughts. I typically buy used off of second hand apps, and I just search for the phone even if it's niche everyday (how I got my nothing phone 2 for $250). So my budget would be $600-800 (giving wiggle room as I would still like to hear the retail of phones if need be). Sorry if the detail about buying used is weird. Again, this is just to learn more about options, thanks again!
