+1 for NP1
As commented above, after A13 update phone has improved significantly according to a friend.
Also flipkart sale start tomorrow, you can grab at an even lower price.

As for Moto has improved HW wise recently, got my dad an g82 and its holding up just fine, but the updates are questionable at best

And I would strongly suggest against the s20fe, I got 1 in april last year, the battery life and heating issues have been a pain.

Do you have S20FE 5G? I bought it in Oct 2021, my unit has no heating issues (gets quite warm for long GPS + mobile data usage). My uncle bought it in Oct 2022, he says that it gets a bit warm on mobile data, but no such issues for me. Coming from S8, battery life was not an issue for me but it was an issue for my uncle who mostly used mid range phones.

Yes I am using one, got fed with Xiaomi and miui so jumped to oneUI, but with my usage and the Mumbai weather, the screen gets uncomfortably warm and battery backup is bad as well, I have to charge it twice a day. :(

I have heard some heating issues on S20FE 5G as well but for some reason, I didn't find my phone getting uncomfortably warm even when I play CoC on mobile data, GPS on data does make it quite warm though. On days with heavy usage, even I need to charge it twice in a day. Like recently, on a day outing I got like 2.5hrs SOT over 12-13hrs. Else its usually 4 - 4.5 hrs over 20+ hrs.
