I’ll be getting an iPhone through work so no point in having two iPhones :)

So that leaves the option of having a personal android phone and I’m after some ideas on what to get.

Main requirements are

Great battery life - this discounts the Pixel
Face unlock which actually works - discounts the S23/24 series as I found face unlock never worked for me even after lots of tweaks , unless they’ve changed the software in s24?
Price - ideally max £500 (uk)
Great screen and camera

So this doesn’t leave a lot of choice except looking to Chinese models which I know little about

Recommendations anyone ?
