I just looked up smartphones with headphone and SD card slots on GSMarena, and there are 159 models even from 2025. That’s more than I expected. And most of them are actually affordable and worth the cost - I wouldn’t recommend half the devices on this list purely based on price to performance ratio.

If you lose enough money, you trigger an integer overflow and end up with a profit!

I actually like it. Smartphones in India are usually a little cheaper than elsewhere, since they assume they can make up the lost revenue with ads. And at least on Xiaomi devices, you can stop all OS-side ads by removing just one app.
