12 January 2024


Sort by:

hi gsm team ,

Can your guy explain more the score rating system . What does the 4 star rating means to your readers . Given only 4 star to this excellent budjet flagship that something not truth about the overall perception of the product . Galaxy phone [ with $450 launch msrp ] plus inferior chipset which 3x slower than this phone, and your give 4.3 star rating for it .
Some negative point which stated in this review seems llike your guy pretend to forgot , this is just only $300~$350 flagship budjet .

    christfild, 13 Jan 2024you coming from indonesia. poco x6 pro will launch 5jt++ if... moreyeah, who knows... The X6 Pro is not far from the Indian price.

      rizki1, 13 Jan 2024all these phones are more expensive than the X6 Pro.. Reno1... moreyou coming from indonesia. poco x6 pro will launch 5jt++ if im guessing correctly even with their lower spec 8/256, with 12/512 gonna close to oppo reno11 price and oppo reno11 is 5,9. the price difference is low. samsung galaxy phone always decreasing their price after 2-3 months. even when launch A35 will probably on region 5jt too then maybe become cheaper afterr 2-3 months. and iqoo neo9 pro should around that price range too if launch in indonesia. iqoo neo9 pro main camera using same sensor as vivo x100, but with worse ultrawide camera, so in theory the camera will be better than poco x6 pro.
      again poco x6 pro is great phone yet for people like camera maybe they choose different device.

        christfild, 13 Jan 2024the camera is average. its not bad yet not good either for ... moreall these phones are more expensive than the X6 Pro.. Reno11 30K INR, X6 Pro 27K. The A35 and A55 are already in another category because their prices are not Poco's opponents.

          rizki1, 13 Jan 2024Not only performance but fast charging and a flagship level... moreCamera's would be one of the priorities for me. Call quality, 4g/5g/wifi reception and software would also be high on the list. Basically, people can choose phones for different reasons.

            rizki1, 13 Jan 2024Not only performance but fast charging and a flagship level... morethe camera is average. its not bad yet not good either for mid range class. for the prices X6 pro is great value for the money. but people who like camera phone and dont care about performance will choose other phone probably like oppo reno11 for example. and we still dont know anything about galaxy A35 and A55. and not to mention IQOO Neo9 pro will bring snapdragon 8g2, but iqoo neo9 pro still has questionable availability, only india confirmed launched.

              Aierlan, 13 Jan 2024For performance it is top notch for the price but not every... moreNot only performance but fast charging and a flagship level screen... people choose different reasons? What's that?

                  motop, 12 Jan 2024You made wrong How can consider these Antutu and geekbench... moreDefective unit, I guess?

                    comparing this to A54 as competitor is trus BS

                      rizki1, 13 Jan 2024no, there is no better alternative phone at this price. The... moreFor performance it is top notch for the price but not everyone is the same and people have different reasons for choosing phones. It is the best phone at this price for you but that doesn't mean it is the best for everyone at this price

                        no, there is no better alternative phone at this price. The phone performs well, why choose anything else?

                          Seems like the reviewer struggled to find weaknesses to fill the Cons part. I doubt many users will complain about fingerprint prone back when most would put on a case anyways.

                          Please name one brand other than Samsung giving IP68 rating to phones in this price segment. In my country, the A25 is in the same price range and it doesnt even come with IP54.

                            Tae, 12 Jan 2024I guess this is gonna be my phone for the next 3 years. ... moreX6 Pro is the better choice. Wait for price drop

                              motop, 12 Jan 2024Also this is winter If they re run these antutu geekbench ... moreBruh, indoor climate control is a thing you know. And gsmarena has mentioned before they strive to test phones in similar situations i.e. same room temperature.

                                Aierlan, 13 Jan 2024Yeah, I think this would be a reasonable approach. Many of ... moreExcellent critique, gsmarena is quick to shout lack of innovation

                                But doesn't introduce thermometers for heat tracking in performance test

                                Doesn't improve their rating system

                                Heck there is a whole new generation of technical reviews from golden reviewer and geekerwan and gsmarena has not adopted a single new technique

                                And like you mention dxomark has some interesting display testing

                                But maybe when or if the gsmarena team reads this they just laugh at us or interpret these critiques as we saying they have to copy everything or start over

                                Just take a few bits from here.. something as small as thermometer results.. you know baby steps

                                      Why didn't GSMArena get the yellow one

                                        PureOS, 12 Jan 2024Just 4.0 rating?! This super machine they compare with A54,... moreThey need Samsung sponsor that why Samsung product get different treatments. Personally I never find A54 that good last year, but I understand why is popular. Considering similiar price range(do mind this my region price) Poco F5, Vivo v29, oppo Reno10, Xiaomi 13T, I find these device more appealing last year devices.
                                        And I haven't considered GSMArena rating for long time, just read their review on each part, comparing with other reviewers, then make personal conclusions. Their rating system is a joke. And like you said need overhaul and be more transparent how their rating worked.
