Want charger in the box.

M34 5G is the only good phone at this price range which has call recording without announcement natively (doesn't work on VoWiFi).

25W charger costs 1k, so overall cost will be 18k.

*geek.digit.in/community/threads/good-general-purpose-phone-around-15k.212316/ this might help you, my requirement was slightly different with a AMOLED screen but we discussed some options that didn't have it too.

As for call recording, are there phones that doesn't support it? IIRC, the only caveat is that most will announce your call is being recorded beforehand to comply with laws.

Correct.

Many manufacturers had dialler which supported call recording without announcement but Google started forcing companies to put in Google dialler which caused the issue. India doesn't have laws for both party consent to record.

Does this app "TTSLexx app" work in stopping the message during call recording....?

If it does work, I and many other like me will be able to buy any mobile of their choice.

Redmi 12 has come up with its own dialer, will it be having call recording feature ?

Even if it works now, it might not later, remember that.

Never used it.

No 3rd party app will be as reliable as 1st party one when Google is trying to not have that feature. Samsung can't be bullied by Google.

Thanks for the reply. I liked m34 more but it doesn't have charger which take price to 20k.

Meanwhile i also found Infinix GT10 which looks better than m34 and it has charger too along with call recording. I actually wanted to buy redmi 12 turbo which was to launch on 8th August but till date there is no confirmation so looks it will be delayed.

Any views on GT10 when compared to m34?

Charger is just 1k extra, not sure how that's a deal breaker. SoC & design are bigger deal-breakers for M34 IMO.

Infinix/Tecno are sister brands, I think. Take your call if you want to go for them. The new GT10 pro surely has a bang for buck specs unlike their previous phones. My issues with them are potential software issues & QC issues. Check reviews & user experiences then take your call. Surely it has the best performance chip under 20k but Samsung has a far better UI, 4 OS updates till android 17 (vs just 1 for Infinix) & camera might be much better as well because of Samsung's software algorithm. M34 would have been much easier to recommend if it had Dimensity 920 SoC. So, choose your poison.

Is M34 and F34 same, if not what is the difference?

Same hardware & software, different sellers, amazon & FK respectively. F34 is in FK. M34 in amazon, likely named M because A series was taken long back.
