Pros and Cons

HTC U24 pro

Strengths

The device has a high-quality display with 6.8 inches, 1080x2436 pixels, OLED display running at 120Hz refresh rate
It supports wireless charging up to 15 watts and also has USB-C fast charging at 60 watts
The phone comes with 12GB of RAM and 256/512GB of storage, both being UFS 3.1 storage type
Expendable storage using a Micro SD card is available, making it a relatively okay internal specification
The device can record videos at 4K up to 30 frames and 1080p up to 60 frames with the front camera having a 50-megapixel sensor
It has a large 4600mAh battery which is good for long usage

Weaknesses

The build of this device is weirdly shaped with slanted edges, making it feel sharp in hand
The phone has a blocky feel due to its side edges being made in the same way, making it uncomfortable to hold
The plastic back feels cheap and doesn't look great, giving a low-quality feel
The top bezel of the device is quite substantial despite having an 88% screen-to-body ratio
The camera setup at the back has a confusing design with two cameras being 50 megapixel sensors, one wide and one telephoto, but still lacking features like zoom or macro mode
The price tag of €760 is too high for what it offers, especially when compared to other alternatives in the market

Samsung Galaxy M35

Strengths

The Samsung Galaxy M35 offers surprisingly decent performance with its Exynos 1380 chip, handling basic tasks and demanding games like BGMI and CODM smoothly.
The phone's battery life is excellent, lasting up to a day and a half on regular use, and dropping by only 30% after three hours of heavy gaming.
The camera setup is decent, with good detail and natural colors in photos taken with the main 50MP lens, although portrait mode can struggle to detect edges.
The phone has a great display, featuring a punchy 6.6-inch Super AMOLED panel with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, super bright up to 1000 nits, and Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection.
The sound quality is surprisingly good thanks to the Stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos support.
The phone has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner that's quick and responsive.
Samsung's commitment to updates is solid, with 4 years of Android update and 5 years of security patches.
The phone has NFC for easy payments.

Weaknesses

The Exynos chip may not be as powerful as a Snapdragon processor, which could affect gaming performance in graphically intensive titles like Genshin Impact.
The charging speed is relatively slow, taking around 2 hours to fully charge from 0 to 100% through 25W wireless charging.
There's no charger included in the box.
The phone can get warm after prolonged gaming sessions.
The camera system may not be as strong as some other phones at this price point.

HTC U24 pro

The HTC U24 Pro boasts an impressive 6.8-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a triple-camera setup, and a large 4,600mAh battery. The device's design is unique, featuring slanted edges and a curved screen that extends further than traditional bezels. However, the plastic back and sharp-edged design may not be to everyone's taste. With a price tag of €760, the U24 Pro faces stiff competition from other devices with similar specs but at significantly lower prices. Can it justify its premium price?

Samsung Galaxy M35

The Samsung Galaxy M35 is a budget-friendly smartphone that offers impressive performance, camera capabilities, and battery life, making it a solid choice for those looking for a Samsung phone under 20,000 rupees. Under the hood, the phone is powered by the Exynos 1380 chip, which was surprisingly effective in handling demanding tasks like gaming. The M35 handled games like BGMI, Call of Duty Mobile, and Genshin Impact with minimal lag, even after extended periods of playtime. However, it did struggle to maintain high frame rates in Genshin Impact, especially on high settings. The camera setup features three cameras, including a 50MP main lens, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro lens. While the photos taken by the main camera were decent with good detail and natural colors, they looked somewhat soft. The ultra-wide camera performed well in matching the color of the main camera, but portrait mode was not its strong point. The phone's battery life is where it truly shines, lasting a day and a half on regular use, even with heavy usage like gaming. However, charging was slower than expected, taking around 2 hours to fully charge from 0 to 100%. The Galaxy M35 also features a punch-hole display, side-mounted fingerprint scanner, and surprisingly good sound quality courtesy of the dual speakers. The display itself is bright and smooth, reaching up to 1,000 nits, and protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy M35 offers great value for its price, with impressive performance, camera capabilities, and battery life making it a solid choice for those in the market for a budget-friendly smartphone.
