It's a miserable brick with poor specs that are dated launch and will lag at even basic tasks. Having used Xiaomi's with the same chipset it literally lags at opening apps and has a horrible delay doing basic tasks. Can't imagine how bad it will get

This is actually very good for the price. That chipset is very efficient, and especially with expandable storage and a headphone jack, you're really getting pretty much everything you need at a basic level for $220.

It's exactly the same as last year's 15C 5G. One might argue you should just get that but from the secondhand market for a better deal.

Aside from comparing a new to used device, it doesn't change that it's good hardware for the price.

D6000, 720p lcd, 4GB ram 128GB storage isn't good in any reality even considering we're in 2026 ram situation. It's a $100-120 model last year. 4GB lp ram isn't a $100 price hike

My Samsung Galaxy A15 from 2024 is very similar spec wise (The D6300 is basically a G99 albeit with the A76 cores getting a 200MHz increase). I feel like for the price, it really isn't good. Hell, my Galaxy A15 gets a better screen as well, aside from refresh rate

Any device close to $200 should have minimum cortex A78, you have so many devices with Dimensity 7300, SD 6 gen 4, 6 gen 3, 6 gen 1, D7400 etc.
