For stock android + 90Hz display - Moto G30 but has a 720p display

For a good display (1080p) + 6000mah battery + 6GB RAM - Poco M3 but needs to spend time turning off all recommendations (check guides for MIUI ad removal, relatively easy).

M12/F12 are similar to Moto G30 but with Samsung's One UI (which is good IMO).

Nokai is bad, good software exp but just bad hardware for the price, avoid.

If making basic uses only, even Infinix Hot 10 Play has brought some new features. Micromax In 1 is also a good option.
