Mobile Buying – Sticky features – help to decide


Dear Friends
Need to buy one mobile phone and request your inputs guidance.
BUDGET is 30K (+/- few thousands; lesser the better)

Number One Important Feature:
Automatic call recording without intimation to third party –
I have a very high inclination to purchase OnePlus Nord 2 5G but I am not sure about automatic call feature recording without intimation to third party.
This is most important feature as I have literally so many calls and have to rehear it as cannot make so many notes while on call.
Some may argue why asking for non-intimation to other party but this is bcz most people otherwise would be unhappy.
So can someone with OnePlus Nord 2 5G confirm that we can have automatic call recording without issues?
(have had conflicting opinions you tube videos so require firm confirmation)

Else I will go for next best option of Xiaomi bcz it has inbuilt automatic call recording without intimation to third party. So Pls Pls confirm???

2. 8 GB Ram (desirable 12 GB) 128 GB ROM (desirable 256 GB)

3. Would prefer xiaomi after OnePlus bcz of next best operating system cleaner UI and stable one

Kindly help as republic day sale has started. Thank you

Awaiting your reply

Don't waste money on Oneplus phones as they now come with ColorOS crap. You don't need more than 6GB RAM TBH. ( refer

OP has fallen from greatness in terms of UI, so avoid. Its now ColorOS. Just buy Samsung S20 FE 5G for 36k. If you don't care much about cam & performance, can get A52s 5G for 32k.

I would like to buy a mobile phone which has strong signal reception in closed/ low signal areas. My A6+ has low signal/ no signal within enclosure like ATM counter etc. My budget is 20 -30k.

Kindly help.

Thanks in advance.
