Oneplus Community Sale in India

Yep. 27k is good price for XR if one can get 128 gb model.
Iphones are ahead of android by 1 or 2 generations in processing power, so going last gen or even 1 before it is not a issue.
Will keep an eye on future compact iphones with good battery as iphone se 2020 has sub par battery.

Lucky fellow! Maybe they meant android updates as in 11->12 and not security updates.
Motorola used to be good under Google, the early moto Gs were great value for money.
They didn’t even launch moto g 100 in India, that phone would have killed in 20k-30k segment with SD870 and bloat free rom.

Not really. If anything they’d be completely average when running Android. The thing with Apple is the way , they mold their CPU and the software , together perfectly almost like a console. So they’ve perfect sync with one another and do not age terribly ( unless Apple deliberately slows your iPhone down through software upgrades but that’s a different matter ) androids are well , different OEMs different flavours , so there’s always a mismatch between them. With all those crappy UI from Chinese brands , the phone’s definitely gonna hit the dead rock sooner then an iPhone
