not really into high end smartphones as i don't have a usecase for those. don't need an above average camera, if any at all. currently i am using a motorola edge 20 as my daily workhorse and overall i am not unhappy with it. Just sometimes it seriously hangs and occasionally reboots. also probably sooner or later updates will cease, i would assume.

if i was to look for a replacement in the ... let's say 400 - 600 eur/usd price range ... what kind of phone would make sense to purchase? i rarely use any apps other than a browser, really. no gaming intended.

FWIW, I can easily get a full day out of my pixel 6a. The only down-side that I perceived, having upgraded from a pixel 3a was the loss of the headphone jack (RIP) and the in-screen fingerprint reader being finicky/sub-par (which I believe is also true of the 7a)

Have you tried the setting "display > screen protector mode" this increases the sensitivity of the screen including fingerprint. Now it works in all but the brightest sunshine.
