Wow. And I thought 15 gb on my phone was bad. What is the use of A/B partition though?

Stores another copy of current OS. So when you update, partition B is updated while your phone is running like normal from partition A. During the next update, A gets updated while phone is running on B. 

Essentially you never have to shut down the phone while updating, plus there's a backup in case the OS gets corrupted.

Got it. Yes earlier update used to happen when phone was restarted.

If only they still used Oxygen OS. But it's good to see they are slowly getting back, their phones were great till the 7T series.

Yep. There's praises all around for OnePlus again. Never thought I'd see that again.

 

Sus AF. What did they change from the 10 to 11 for all those praises?

Not sure what it cost internationally but it still costs the same in India, right?

Not sure lol. I don't even look at phones above 40k. 30k is my sweet spot with exception of iPhone X which I regret till now.

Yep using 7T. Bought in 2020, still runs like it does on day 1 except maybe battery. Great stuff still.

what is the best phone doing the rounds at 30K, need to pick one for wife, she drops and breaks phones all the time, so I don't want to spend a fortune on the phone. Biggest ask is that camera should be good and selfie camera should be even better :P

 

This redmi note 12 pro looks nice, last i got her a redmi K20 Pro and it has served well.

Battery seems to be an issue along with heating issues, camera did win but it is an age old sensor. Display seems to be very mediocre as well with missing 120 hz. Don’t think I will go with this, Let me do a bit more research, need to buy something tomorrow.

Old but possibly the most optimised sensor on any phone so far. As with any phone, optimisation matters more than the hardware. 

Rest, yup. Battery seems to be an issue. 60hz. 

Go for P7P bhai.
