LoneOwl, 15 Mar 20254.3 stars, why?Funny how the HMD Skyline is a better overall phone (exceptionally cheaper too, considering most regions), but with the last iteration of the same chipset, which isn't far off from the current iteration.

    what a joke, no charger no case... nothing interesting this brand.

They don't even sell in the same markets. The Redmi note 14 pro+ and Realme 14 pro+ are competitors I think

                  Did I miss the part of the review where they focused on testing the display burn in that was and still is to this day plaguing the 2a? O.o

                            Odd that the battery life decreased so much over the 2a and 2a plus despite moving to a more efficient chipset. Maybe the better screen and speakers consume more power? Even the A55 and soon to come A56 will do better than it battery wise. The camera review is surprising good even on the 8mp. Where is the standard 3a review to compare against?

                                    If this phone came out of China there'd be far less criticism

                                      If only Nothing spent as much money on parts as they did buying reviews.
