30-40k Good budget android phones for long-term use

[hemant1729]

Have been using one plus 6 for the past 4 years. I started freezing and crashing. Tried a full reset, and installing custom ROMs but nothing worked. Please suggest a good android phone under 40k. Looking for one with a clean, reliable UI experience and good battery backup.

I have enabled that Tap Feature where I can turn on the flashlight by tapping twice on the back of the phone. SometimesIt just ceases to function and I have to restart my phone in order for it to work again.

Does it cease working even when the phone is fully unlocked? Generally the flashlight tap only works with an active screen (unlocking not necesary). Sounds like an annoying little bug though.

If your budget is less than 25k
Go for Moto pretty good experience and a clean add free OS

Motorola haven't had a good reputation with OS upgrades, but on the positive side their skin is very close to stock Android, and ad-free as you've noted.

I'm not denying the excellent support that Samsung is providing for their phones, but they are making 'guarantees' only for the high-range mobiles.
Their low and mid-range phones are not guaranteed software upgrade support, but may get upgrades if feasible.

Please see below post where they are making the OS upgrade guarantees only for the high-range mobiles. None of the mid-range or low-range phones are in the list.

If iam not mistaken mid tier Samsung phones get at least one major update,not sure about the lower end phones,high end phones without a question will get a minimum 3 years warranty in some cases maybe more,security updates on anything beyond flagships are rather random and may even be delivered once in 3 or 4 months time.
