Hey guys,
I'm buying a phone for my mom and currently torn between these 4 phones which are almost EXACTLY the same price in my place:
1) Iqoo Z9 5G (SD 7 Gen 3 version) 8+256GB
2) Honor X9C 8+256GB
3) Realme 12+ 5G 12+256GB
4) Oppo Reno12 F 12+256GB
My criteria:
1) Reliable day-to-day performance (obviously she's not a gamer)
2) Good, dependable primary and selfie camera (My mom likes to take a lot of pictures but she won't explore the camera features like ultrawide, filters etc). It has to be a reliable point and shoot.
3) Great call quality
4) Good battery life.
I'm actually leaning towards the Iqoo Z9 (coz her current phone is a Vivo and the Z9 has the best chipset of thee 4) but the lack of OIS and only 16mpx selfie camera seems to be a concern. In reality, how good or bad is the camera compared to the other 3 options?
The Oppo Reno12 F seems to have the overall best camera specs on paper. But not sure how good it actually is.
Realme is budget brand of Oppo. So not sure if it's wise to choose the Realme 12+ considering I can get the Oppo Reno12 F at the same price. How much of a difference does the MTK Dimensity 7050 make compared to the MTK D6300 on the Reno12 F? Any other pros in the Realme?
Honor doesn't support WiFi 6. Not sure if that's a big deal breaker. Otherwise all the other specs looks solid. Not sure of it's camera performance either.
Which one would recommend if all these 4 are the same price?

So I tested this phone using Poweramp music player...it seems that it doesn't support hi res audio playback via usb, it automatically downsamples audio to standard definition. Audiophiles might want to avoid this one

The most affordable iQOO product that offering Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 at £190? How awesome but still have cons such as no ultrawide but nvm cause mostly the user of this phone use that as a daily gaming and multitasking aswell. Still can run Wuthering Waves at max graphic setting for 30 - 40 fps

Weird...why this snapdragon version is cheaper than the mediatek version? This one clearly has better specs

Middle class phone with decent features, excellent battery capacity, smooth processor, can play smooth for any kind of recent mobile games (Genshin, Wuthering and similar games), with acceptable price. The only downside is the camera features other than that, is a phone good for a long run...

Rifaie564, 27 Dec 2024Guys how is your experience playing Genshin Impact on this phone?well, I'm not gonna say it's very good or bad.. it's decent, you can run it in even high-end graphic and manages to get 40fps that stable for like 15 minutes before finally the frames started to drop. I recommend you to just use lower graphics to not overwork the cpu and make the temperature of the phone heat too much. overall, for the price this phone offers. this is a good choice if you wanted to play genshin impact on a budget

I haven't tested speeds on this one but my z9x gets 10mbps on 4g or 3g while this sim gets 100mbps inside a Canadian iPhone. To get notifications, you would need to enable them 1st, enable autostart and allow background activity on apps where you need it. kinda annoying but with the amount of spammy notifications you get, it's kind of a plus

It only runs at 120+hz when switched to 1080p mode which is kinda frustrating. 1260p only goes up to 90hz. I'd rather this phone have a native 1080p screen as I'm forced to run it in non native res. Still, best value for me. I used Z9x to try out Origin and I liked it so got this one. It's fairly similar to other BBK phones. I owned 1+ and Realme, my wife uses Oppo. Finding Color OS to be more annoying than Origin
