Any model to recommend? Not sure if our usecases are the same -- I wanted to find a cheap "lower end of the market" phone to test my mobile game on. Frankly, the poco m3 might even be too powerful for that purpose...

Not a Samsung in my experience. They get slow quick and the bluetooth chip on mine died literally out of nowhere. After 3 months of use, no less.

Get a pixel or a oneplus.

I have a Galaxy A21s now. It was just slightly more expensive than the Xiaomi i tried. Not sure how low end it is though.

Mind, it's strictly a development phone. It sits on my desk plugged in, unless I debug those Android apps. No sim card in either. My personal phone is an iPhone XS.

I recently ordered the 2020 version of the Moto G Power (XT2041-4) from Costco for personal use, upgrading from the Moto G6 Play.

And although Lenovo is now China-owned, the Moto line is still pure Android and no bloat.

Did a lot of research and the the last gen G Power is the best spec'd budget phone around this price point that is not a Samsung and sold in typical NA big box stores.

A10 or A01 are pretty slow
