When buying a mobile phone in 2021, master the "four no-needs" principle and don't choose blindly

1. You don’t have to choose the latest flagship phone

For friends with limited budget, there is no need to choose the latest flagship phone. Not only is the price high, but there may also be some "common problems", such as the collective overheating of Snapdragon 888 this year, which no one can avoid.

So you can consider the latest sub-flagships, such as Redmi K40, realme GT, Honor 50 Pro, etc. Among the mid-range models, Redmi Note10 Pro, iQOO Z3, or even the old Snapdragon 865 flagships from 2020 are also good, such as Meizu 17 Pro, Nut R2, etc. These are all good choices.

When it comes to mobile phones, the newer the better is not necessarily true. The application of new technologies and new hardware will also bring some instability, so there is no need to buy the latest flagship phone.

2. Don’t worry about every lens being powerful

Consumers who pursue imaging experience always want to buy a mobile phone without a makeshift lens, such as Huawei Mate 40 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max, and Samsung S21UItra. The imaging of these mobile phones is indeed very strong, but the hardware is already overflowing and the price is expensive.

As a second best option, some mobile phones that include make-up lenses in their imaging parameters can also be considered, such as the OnePlus 9 Pro, which has four cameras of 48 million + 50 million + 8 million + 2 million. Although there is a 2 million-megapixel make-up lens, in fact, we use the main camera and ultra-wide-angle camera more when taking photos.

For example, the Xiaomi 11 Pro, the 8-megapixel periscope telephoto camera is just for the sake of numbers, but the 50-megapixel Samsung GN2 main camera is indeed powerful.

The most commonly used lenses for daily photography are ultra-wide-angle and main cameras. In fact, there is no need to care about the 2-megapixel black-and-white lens or the 200x macro lens. They are more for making up three or four cameras, and are also caused by the industry's helplessness.

3. You don’t have to buy a 2K screen phone

The 2K screen can indeed bring a delicate picture display effect and looks high-end, but the mainstream screen size is less than 7 inches, and it is actually difficult to see the graininess of the 1080P resolution without a magnifying glass.

What's more, the price of 2K screen mobile phones is also relatively high, because the screen cost is more expensive. Secondly, the 2K resolution brings higher power consumption, so it consumes more electricity. Therefore, at the same price, 1080P mobile phones can also be considered. It does not mean that 2K will definitely provide a better experience.

4. You don’t have to buy an Apple or Huawei phone

This year, more and more people are supporting Huawei, but there are still many users buying Apple phones. However, there are many mobile phone brands, and we should not follow the trend blindly. A mobile phone is a mobile phone, and supporting domestic products is supporting domestic products. These are two different things. You can buy Xiaomi, OV, and even Samsung.

Summarize

To sum up, when buying a mobile phone, you should follow the above "four don'ts" principles and should not blindly follow others. If your budget is sufficient, it is naturally better to buy a flagship phone. If your budget is insufficient, buying some mid-range models will also be a good experience. You don't have to stick to one mobile phone brand. Changing a brand may reveal a different view. What do you think?
