Hello,
I was really looking forward to phones which were launched in the last few months such as the Moto Edge 40, OnePlus Nord 3 and the OnePlus 11R, but seems like
none of them really tick all my boxed. Ideally, I want a phone that has a 3.5mm jack, and expandable stoarge. I'll settle for any one of the two, but even that doesn't seem like an option. I don't want to spend 30k+ on a phone with neither, and Sony Experia series isn't available in India afaik.
So my only option seems to be the Tecno Camon 20 Pro 5G, which has a 3.5mm jack, and expandable storage. Only thing is I can't find anything about which 4g/5g bands it covers. GSM arena only mentions the type of 5g it supports and not the specific bands. Some other websites only list 2 bands, which is a no go for me. So sort of stuck in choosing a phone. I can wait till Diwali, or even New Year to get a phone, but I'm not sure if there are any upcoming launches that are worth waiting for.
Also looking at the LAVA Agni 2 as a backup phone because at less than 20k, i think it's worth a shot. Early reviews seem to be positive, and it seems to have good 5g and 4g band coverage.
Cheers
