Hi there,
I've been using my Note 8 for a few years now, but I feel I need a bigger screen.
I don't want to spend too much money, I don't use the phone to take pictures, I have my professional camera for that, nor for gaming as I use my Switch.
So, I'm looking for a good phone, with bigger screen.
I'm considering the Moto G for $299

or the Galaxy A71 for $149

though I'm confused because there's also this Galaxy A71 for $469
shorturl.at/bizIK
If the difference between the two Galaxy is only the unlocked feature, than I should be ok with the $149 as I'm on T-Mobile.
Anyway, are those two phones good? Is there a clear winner between the two? Is there a better option?
Thanks for any help!
Edit: It seems I can't add more replies to the thread, so I'll edit my question.

Actually, I replaced my first Note 8 after 2 years.
The battery died, but I had a warranty that would allow me to get a renewed phone (same model), and so I did.
I'm not particularly tied to Samsung, I actually don't find their phones too attractive, maybe the latest S22 ultra (I prefer straight corners vs rounded).
Also, I don't plan to do much with the phone, other than checking/replying emails, taking notes, and playing chess now and then. For the rest I rely on my professional camera, and for other games on my Nintendo.
Now, I'd like to add a couple of other options to the basket:
OnePlus 9 Pro

Pixel 6 Pro

I can stretch the budget, so are any of those any better?
