Help with an upgrade (from Xiaomi Mi 9T)

    Hello -

    I'm looking to upgrade from a Xiaomi Mi 9T which has recently started to slow down, particularly the touch screen is not as responsive as it should be.

    Quite happy with Xiaomi & also a fan of the Pixel style stock Android which I had on a previous Xiaomi Mi A1.

    Looking for 128gb storage & similar or better spec to what I have. Waterproofing and wireless charging would be nice to have but not essential. Prefer to buy from Amazon or a more reputable seller rather than an EU warehouse of a Chinese store for VAT & warranty reasons. Price 300-400 EUR ideally.

    Looking for a second Xiaomi in the 200 EUR price range to replace said Mi A1 too.

    Any suggestions?

    Upgraded from 9T to a Poco F3, 256gb off Amazon.de. Was around 300EUR. Not a power user by any stretch but ticks all the boxes that I need - dual sim, 5G, NFC, fast response (120hz), loads of storage (256gb), cameras ok but if I was taking keepsake photos I would use by DSLR anyway.

    Am very happy.
