Hi Minar and John, I started with using a Redmi phone and its MiUI changes were a big hurdle in its accessibility back then.
I am using a Moto phone which runs on stock android and works superbly for me. Normally its battery lasts 3 days if I am doing my normal stuff. Many of Moto phones are available under 10k and I have used 2 of them in past 3 years.
