Looking for new phone to replace Poco F3

[okomo]

My Poco F3 broke recently (in less than 2 years). It was nice while it was fine. After some time, it lags when i press the homescreen button for a few seconds (kinda annoying). Now, it completely crash, glitch, and turn off everytime i turn https://9apps.ooo/ it on. So i think maybe i will avoid xiomi now.

I am looking for a phone in the same performance range and price range as poco f3. The processor is important to me because i want to be able to play Honkai Star Rail.

How are you getting on? I don't browse this section much.
I still use the predecessor to the F3, and am mildly fixated with cpu scores when reading reviews and considering it's replacement.

There are a few mid tier devices now that can match flagship phones of three years ago or less, many with Mediatek SoC's, or Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and 7+ Gen 1 models (OK only the F5 has the latter but it's very good).

I have a shocking memory so would need to revise on what's around. (I'm quite forgetful too!)

I understand you want to avoid Xiaomi brands for your next device, so there are many other devices out there.

You will want a decent Antutu score for graphics as well, but I think most devices are fairly decent. Yes, test scores mean very little, but they help compare. Also nformation on from reviews about throttling / overheating issues help as well.

Many comparison reviews of the best available for a certain budget still list 1 or 2 year old devices, which can be annoying.

Let us know which region of the World you are in, if you are still looking.

If you are looking for a phone in the same price range and same performance as poco f3 you can go with the following options:
1. OnePlus Nord 2: This device features a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor, which offers comparable performance to the Snapdragon 870. It's known for its smooth performance and good gaming capabilities.
2. Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G: The Galaxy A52s 5G packs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G processor, which is slightly lower in performance compared to the Snapdragon 870 but still offers decent gaming capabilities.
