I'm not looking for a solution to my productivity needs. I have a laptop for that. A phone is what I'm looking for.

S20 FE seems a good option, but do go through this thread to remove your doubts and concerns.

Oh yes I have gone through this thread, most of the issues seems to be with the camera and I don't really mind that.

Get yourself a MOTO edge 20 5G. Only thing it lacks is a headphone jack but if you are ok with it then you can save lots of extra money you have.

If you have a laptop then why are you using a phone for youtube and browsing ?

I almost never use a phone for that unless i'm out in the street or getting to sleep with the screen off.

Also can you define what good battery means for you ? the standard is 5h SOT for me its closer to 6.

Whether you get that depends how good your mobile signal is and how not so hot the place you live in is.

eg. if you operate the phone close to 40 degrees C as is the case right now in many parts of the country then it will be harder and if on top of that cell signal is middling then forget it.

S20FE is an excellent all-rounder and I would pick it over other models for budget upto 35k.
