          Gsmarena team knows nothing about durability. Plastic phones are more burable to drops, because of the plastics nature to bend and break at holding points. Lcds are also more durable since oleds still have that burn in design flaw(also don't bs me while using a stock android rom, my i9300 had burn in at the top even though i switched to full screen mode after 6months of owning it). Selfie cameras are also a plauge, specially the ones with mechanics involved. Zenfone 6 is good, but it's fragile af and suited for the real world.

              Using Samsung A50 for 2months. Really a Solid midranger. UD finger print sensor improved after last update. Only thing i am missing is a dedicated night mode for camera.

                Using 3rd party camera app or pure raw on Xperia 1 should give the best results. Shame that with today's trend is cheap price and big 48mp package more interesting. Mi9t and honor20pro are the brightest examples. Under display fps, no notch/bezel with pop out camera and more is what they got for 1/2 or 1/3 price

                  At entry level, Redmi Go and Nokia 2.1 are solid ones. Better than Real me and nearly half its rates. Redmi 7a is another one in line.

                              It's funny that you created a separate segment for gaming phones but mention "gaming aesthetics are not for everyone" as their cons. That's what differentiate gaming phones from flagships
