Curious about the overlap. I wonder if its actually that much of what appears to be a consensus on Lemmy, or just a loud minority.

    You can (80€ even), don’t expect to have ever heard of the brand though. Or to have the latest tech.

      Aahhh, those Blackview, BLU, Ulephone stuff…

      I mean those are usable, but you probably shouldnt let any of your personal info touch that device, massive security issue, which IMO has more real world implications than any privacy issues can do.

        The besteht bet at those prices is buying a second row name brand used. Plenty of ROM support and quality hardware for 100-150€, plus you keep a phone out of the landfill a bit longer. Screw buying overpriced lifestyle phones, my text messages and YouTube videos won’t run any faster on an iPhone Ultra Pro Max Ultra or Samsung Galaxy S420.
