Bnaughty: Budget phones can cause a lot of trouble these days, have you thought about buying some writing paper, envelopes and stamps? Much safer

Sometimes it's cheaper to buy a new one. And sometimes you can do very well with a smart phone alone, without a computer.speaking of putting out ...i need a ssd and ram memory for my computer ... wonder howmuch its gonna cost me

Just one more thing about the LG Phone on Pg. 1
It has enough power and Internet that it supplies the Internet to to My home computer...
so no extra Internet charges to run my main computer... You just have to get someone who knows how to set it up...

Actually, you can tether from almost any new Android phone to your LapTop as long as you have a good data plan and mesh well. For older Android versions you can go to Google Play Store and download FoxFi (WiFi Tether w/o Root), Wifi Hotspot Tethering, or similar to make it easier. I just saw a Samsung Galaxy A51 for a reasonable price fully updated with a modified OS and overall it is quite nice. If your phone is too cheap with limited memory you'll regret it in the end and receive minimal updates with even fewer security features.

Thanks, gentlemen, but I work from home since the end of March (and by the look of it I'll continue doing so for a few months more) and I need a lot of random access memory (the current work comp has 32 GB and it's not always enough).
A Samsung Galaxy Fold (price 23 000 SEK) has 12 GB and I think it's the ceiling that the market can offer right now. I am looking for something under 4 000 SEK, as I am convinced that a very expensive phone has the same chance to be dropped in the sea as a cheap one, if the same pair of hands is the denominator :)
So there's no point in sharing something or other between my own phone and the work computer. Or have I misunderstood the matter?

I read the above post, I was looking at My phone has Max Storage 32 GB
I will just post this on the LG Phone, you can have a look if you like..

I checked the link: the most expensive (LG V50s ThinQ) has RAM 8 GB - too little for my work. Specification says "Waterproof 1.5 m 30 min", but a waterproof bag is cheaper :)I will just post this on the LG Phone, you can have a look if you like..
Another thing: the trusted retailer, there I usually buy my electronic devices, doesn't have LG in their repertoire and I'm not going to buy a new phone on the corner. It's nice to have a warranty, don't you think?

Actually, there are some major differences between cheap and expensive smartphones... mainly the quality and strength of the Lithium battery, available memory and storage space. Also what Android version is installed and how many updates you'll receive. If you drop the phone Gorilla glass usually is much stronger than regular glass and the type of processor used is important. No sense having all the bells and whistles and it lags or slows down when 2-3 Apps are open. A memory card can always be used if extra storage space is needed or the cloud for non-risky data you don't need all the time.
A sealed battery usually has around 2-3 years of a life span if you're lucky under heavy use ( although it varies from company to company ) and a removable battery may extend the phone's life a bit if you install a new battery when needed. It's usually wise to run the phone until it's under 20% every 1-3 days again depending on usage to establish a memory footprint and then top it up to 100%. Closing unwanted APPS in the background saves battery life and cleaning junk to keep the unit running faster helps a lot also with cheaper phones.
You don't need more than a mid-price phone and there are some good ones out there. I recently saw a new Samsung Galaxy A51 ( not the A50 ) and because of the price, I grabbed it as a backup phone. It has Android 10 preinstalled and a smooth new operating system which I love. In reviews, it's slightly under other models in terms of speed and camera quality ( but I really don't trust biased sites ), yet once home it worked perfectly and has a lot of new useful features unrelated to gaming. 4GB of RAM, lots of storage, added security through KNOX, and a Samsung account and better CS. In short, buy what you need and don't overspend what you don't need. I sometimes have to use 3 different SIM cards and reception is good on all of them as it was unlocked.
The A51 for example:
Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors.
1080 x 2400 pixels, 20:9 ratio (~405 ppi density).
Protection: Corning Gorilla Glass 3
OS Android 10, One UI 2.1.
Chipset Exynos 9611 (10nm).
CPU Octa-core (4x2.3 GHz Cortex-A73 & 4x1.7 GHz Cortex-A53).
GPU Mali-G72 MP3.
MEMORY Card slot microSDXC (dedicated slot).
Internal 64GB 4GB RAM, 128GB 4GB RAM, 128GB 6GB RAM, 128GB 8GB RAM
UFS 2.0
WLAN Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, Wi-Fi Direct, hotspot
Bluetooth 5.0, A2DP, LE
GPS Yes, with A-GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BDS
NFC Yes
Radio FM radio
USB 2.0, Type-C 1.0 reversible connector, USB On-The-Go

Checked Samsung Galaxy 51A, the ruling is: "...has a great display but is severely hindered by sluggish performance."
It is also more expensive, than phones with the very same (or comparable) characteristics.
