Finally, I got rid of that stupid Motorola G05! It was the most useless mobile phone I have ever seen. And I have seen a lot of stupid phones.

For the first time, it seemed really good. The hardware parameters were quite good, and the promotional photographs taken with the phone camera were also quite good.

However, after a day or two, I realised that the phone was completely worthless. It cannot switch between any two apps, no matter how simple they are, without killing the one in the background. This meant that 2FA codes could not be entered, and the same applied to rewriting bank account numbers, etc.

So I placed my bet on a reliable device and bought the Redmi Note 9 Pro. It's an older phone, but it still has excellent specifications, and the most important thing is that it's still supported by LineageOS, so I have the latest version of Android, which is brilliant. I have successfully tested that all my banking apps work on Lineage OS, so there was no reason to choose anything other than the Redmi. I already have one for my secondary phone, so I knew what to expect.

So now, both of my everyday phones are Redmi Note 9 Pros running the latest version of Lineage OS, and I am really satisfied with them. It takes really nice photos and has more than enough power for me. I don't need to consider any other cheap phone.
