How to choose a mobile phone in the 1500-2000 yuan range? It’s okay to buy these models with your eyes closed.

When choosing a mobile phone at this price, performance is still the first factor. In addition to performance, you can choose based on your own preferences.

Performance directly determines the smoothness of the phone, whether it will freeze and how long it can be used. No one wants to buy a mobile phone that is laggy upon arrival, so performance is the first factor at this price point.

Under the premise of ensuring that the performance is usable, choose higher storage, better screen, photography, fast charging, etc. as much as possible.

Recommended processors at this price: Snapdragon 7 series/Kirin 8 series/Dimensity 8 series/Dimensity 1000.

Screen: In daily use, the most direct visual impression is the screen. When using a mobile phone for a long time, the better the screen quality, the better the user experience and the less damage to the eyes.

Resolution, refresh rate, material, brightness, color temperature, contrast, these aspects can reflect the quality of the screen.

Taking pictures: It is divided into front-facing and rear-facing. Generally speaking, the front-facing taking photos of most mobile phones are similar. What mainly determines the quality of taking pictures is the rear camera. In rear photography, the main camera is used in more scenes, and it is relatively more important.

Generally speaking, the higher the pixels, the more delicate the photos will be and the more details they will have. But the higher the pixels, the better the photos, and the CMOS image sensor is also a very important factor.

The quality of the camera depends on aspects such as pixels, CMOS and mobile phone software optimization.

Battery life and charging: Battery life generally depends on the battery capacity, but it also has a certain relationship with the power consumption of different processors and the optimization of the manufacturer. The same is true for charging, it just depends on the power, but there will be slight differences in the optimization of different manufacturers.
