I have HTC M8 and because it is Verizon version, I need to use it with custom ROM( Verizon won't let me use tethering unless I pay them money). I'm not living in the US, so phones are little more expensive in my country.

I looked up current phones and liked Xiaomi 5,5s, Mi Max, Red Mi Note 4, LG g5( a bit overpriced for me), Asus zenfone 3( lots of variants. I'm confused).

These phones are the ones that I can afford. I mainly use my phone to WhatsApp, Spotify, watching Series, some google documents stuff, sometimes for the camera, and sometimes for Facebook and Messenger. I almost never play games.

My current M8 doesn't survive a day. I need good battery, relatively better performance. and a decent camera (M8's camera is quite good, but a better camera is, you know, better). Because, as I stated, I use ROM, It's kinda unstable, it is not crashing but it is slow. So when I buy a phone I want to have it good OS. I'm using my phone in English language, so it won't be a problem if the official OS only offers English.

Any recommendation will be appreciated.
