Honestly, I'm impressed that a Chinese got both the performance and the rear camera so well...
Still, being Chinese, they let selfie cam & ultrawide be so-so.
Still, 80% performance achievable on a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 after a 1 hour peak load is nothing short of 'mighty impressive', specially on a chinese brand.
I assume the common phone owner might never require this much, except when hard-gaming.

reyz, 25 May 2024This has always my first stop for phone reviews and news, a... moreQuite unfair.
1 - the pace at which new phones are going out does not leave a lot of room for fantasy and creativity.
2 - the market itself, all those phones are very close and similar to each other, with very few characteristics on which they can stand out. Maybe the in-depth "software stack" analysis and review is where it's at, now.
3 - I personally like that each review is relatable to the precedent, it makes for easier comparisons. And the page about verdict and alternatives is often a well put summary.
I'm more depressed about the state of the market, I mean except China and South Korea, who else is producing phones/tablet nowadays, competitively ?
No, Apple is no better. Asus is Taiwan. Sony, Japan, but not on the affordable side. Even the struggling Nokia(FIN) and Blackberry(CAN) have factories in Asia.
There it is, a battle we have long lost or never properly fought.

I have poco f3, it's great phone. Recently it got hyper os update and there is a green dot in the top right corner that I hate.
I see on the pictures here F6 has it also, it's a deal breaker for me.
In games it's not a dot sometimes, but a whole green square, so I basically cannot see the points I get, they're covered by it.
It's a notification that cannot be opt out, it's telling me that google has access to the location all the time. I'm perfectly aware of that, and I want to let google to have access to the location. I don't want to have the dot all the time.
Next phone is definitely going to be other brand.
Xiaomi has to address this issue with the green dot, or I think it will loose many customers only because of the dot. It lost me, definitely.

The reviews nowadays are so similar to one another that it's like they do 1 review and copy paste for a new phone just changing specs. I distinctly remember reading same old phrases in more than a couple different "reviews".
And they don't even bother to test modems, wifi/mobile reception, signal strength etc. on a phone review. Which is the primary function of a smartphone. They literally have GSM in their name, but they just talk about everything else except networks.

When doing the video capture please can you pan around and not just shoot straight? This is because android phones often stutter when panning as around so this would be a better true test

bardacol, 24 May 2024The new separate ios-like quick settings is just trash. Why... moreOn the setting you can choose and use classic android pull down notification, if you don't like it. Like it's super fast charging it's automatically OFF, you need to switch it ON manually if you want superfast charging active when charging.

I have a Note 9s that I used primarily for almost 3 years, now my secondary phone and it still works as good as the day I bought it. Only decline has been battery life which is to be expected.

Aierlan, 24 May 2024I don't know what you mean by 'mainly Huawei'... moreHuawei
- moon shots were from database , not out of its camera
- using nikon to advertise the front camera of nova series
- cropping photos to advertise high quality lens without low quality edges ( 23mm to 27mm)
- saying super wide is distortion free. Only 👀 are distortion free system.
- kirin 9000s and 9010 impossible to be new chips,bad fab would not make them be even worse than exynos.
- lenses were never Leica made,just Leica certified.
- kulun glass in-house? 😂😂
Has recently claimed almost 90% of mate 60 series with chinese components, but reality shows % much lower .
Probably gonna use omnivision sensors but say they are in-house

The new separate ios-like quick settings is just trash. Why do I have to do different swipes for notifications and quick settings? Hyperos and last miui versions are plain rubbish. So glad that I moved to evolution os on my mipad 5. A breath of fresh air
