Huawei Mate 50

The Huawei Mate 50 Series has made its debut, but often, the non-Pro variant takes a backseat in reviews. I'm excited to shine some light on the standard Mate 50, which offers impressive value for its price tag of RM3499 - a whopping RM800 less than the Pro model. With a flat display, same-resolution cameras as the Pro, and a battery that's still fast-charging capable, this mid-range device is worth exploring. In this review, I'll delve into its performance, camera capabilities, design, and more to see if it's truly a good deal.

realme 14 Pro+

In the realm of smartphones, few devices have managed to balance performance, camera capabilities, and battery life as seamlessly as the Realme 14 Pro+. Priced at an affordable $27,999, this device promises a powerhouse experience without breaking the bank. With a robust Snapdragon chipset, up to 12GB of RAM, and a whopping 6000mAh battery, it's clear that Realme has aimed high with this latest offering. But does it deliver on its lofty expectations?
