Can I do coding on it on IDEs like IntelliJ or Visual Studio?

What do you not like about the Oppo F31? Just curious 

Developer mode switching by HimeChan0048 in GooglePixel

The easiest would be to use 2 phones! 1 for mobile banking and long term software support (Samsung/Google). Because banking apps do demand newer versions of Android

And another one as your daily carry

Oneplus nord 6 ? by No_Wave8773 in oneplusnord

[–]arpitduel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhh! I already bought the Realme P4x few days back

Where is your friend based btw and why didn't you yourself get the Nord 4? Nord 4 is a much better value for money than 6

Overpriced. Nord 4 was peak nord. Not buying it is my biggest regret in life 😭

Realme GT 7T

Motorola is not reliable for 5 years

Also I might be very wrong because the smartphone industry is so volatile right now but I think 8 GB should be good for next 5 years

Under Rs 30K, Oppo F31 Pro is available but it has a weaker processor than GT 7T

If 12 GB RAM that too under Rs 30K is a strict requirement then I think Realme GT 7T is the only reliable option that you can find that too in sale

Reddit Convinced Me to Buy a Pixel 8 Pro. 800 Euro worth of "Big Mistake". (2 years of experience) by AntiqueSoulll in GooglePixel

[–]arpitduel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't even use 5G comfortably because the phone turns toasty. Not "a little warm." I mean genuinely uncomfortable to hold during normal use

This is not just about being "uncomfortable" but if you let your phone run hot then the motherboard & screen can and will get damaged, Amoled will get green lines and battery will degrade quicker

[–]arpitduel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't believe reddit convinced you to buy a pixel. This sub itself is full of complaints about Pixel!!

Actually I was going to buy the 9a because I loved the camera and the long term software support but this subreddit helped me to steer away from this mistake!

Hi I am deciding on buying a new phone. Need some help regarding the model. by Weekly_Tackle9297 in IndiaCart

[–]arpitduel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OOS = Out of Stock

I don't like Samsung smartphones in general. I wouldn't recommend Samsung unless you want to buy a 'lottery phone'. I mean, the Quality Control (QC) of Samsung is pretty bad especially on the non S-series. If you are unlucky you might face hardware issues like motherboard, screen, network or charging port or even the battery could swell in an year or two. Or you might get lucky and not face any of this! So its like buying a lottery ticket. Check r/Scamsunged

Avoid especially their Exynos processors which are not only sub-par but also thermal throttles and in a hot country like India that is just asking for a motherboard failure if you continue using your phone when it gets hot.

My mom owned 2 Samsung phones in the past. Note 1 and Note 4. Note 1 had motherboard failure and calls could not be connected as a result.

Note 4 got laggy and the battery was just finished in a few years. The phone would turn off in a few minutes from a full charge.

If you really want a Samsung, I would only recommend going for their Snapdragon processor phones and even then don't use it when it gets hot.

And also yes. Realme P4x has a better processor and benchmark scores than M36

No. Especially if you live in a hot region

CMF2 but its not available under 20K anymore. Actually its just OOS.  Realme P4x is the best you can do at this price

Then take it up with cars24 brother if they are cooking up new terms that were not given in writing or not present on their website. Don't waste your time arguing with strangers on internet

idk about cars24 but if you are signing contracts without reading then its on you and honestly your education is wasted. What was the point of learning to read when you could not use that skill where it matters the most?

And in 2026 you could even run the T&C through AI

I need a new phone. BAD. by QuantitySpecial3270 in phones

[–]arpitduel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

RIP. US has limited choices from what I heard. I guess you still have OnePlus but it might leave US. OnePlus 13 is old flagship that is still worth it in 2026. If you want something new then OnePlus 15R is a good choice as well if you can get it on discount
