I don't recommend getting the cheapest. I had a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy A32 two years ago and the camera lens glass just start falling off. Its why I got the iPhone 11 in the first place, because of the perceived quality of Apple products. Now I realized its not an Apple vs Samsung thing, but more of a Low-end vs Flagship thing. The Galaxy A32 issue isnt just one standalone case of unluckily getting a defective device, I know several relatives using that phone (All are T-Mobile versions) that notices they camera lens glass is feeling loose. Lens falling off is somehow considered "physical damage" so Samsung warranty didn't cover it. Many low-end phones are cheap because of lower quality. Paying more usually means higher quality.

Yeah, that's really unfortunate to hear. Gladly I didn't had any build quality issues so I didn't even mentioned that side but you are right in that it's also a pretty important point. Back in the day micro-USB connectors wearing out was a big thing that apple products didn't suffered from but that's been solved with type-c. Other than that I've been pretty lucky with my phones not falling apart on me.
