Is it ok to get Nokia 6.1 Plus 6GB Variant for Rs.9999 with 5% instant Bank discount & 5% cashback?
It will be used as Secondary Phone to be used for Banking Apps with a single sim.

Someone also suggested Realme U1.

No custom ROMS will be used.

Thanks.

Go with 6.1 plus but keep in mind that you may need to install apps for even supposedly basic functions otherwise available on manufacturers' rom(stock android is like windows without any software installed).

thanks dear. i am using Moto G5S Plus for almost two years as my primary phone so i am habitual to it. i use only few apps so not having any problems except in locking apps.
as per your suggestion in the other thread, if i go for Redmi 7S, then i will replace it and use it as secondary.

thanks a lot dear. its there on my phone but i have not yet used it. i think when i tried it first it asked me to give some permission and some warning that some encryption will be disabled ot something so i stopped it. later i noticed i don't have anything which needs to be locked up so it was not opened up again. i just clicked on the link and it showed INSTALLED. :D
i think i installed and uninstalled another one from some other regular Anti Virus brand don't remember the name though. i didn't tried that also.
i will try it out soon.
