Huawei nova 12s

The Huawei Nova 12s is a mid-range phone that's hard to recommend despite its stylish design and decent features. While it boasts a slim body, beautiful display, and dual stereo speakers, its outdated chipset and lack of 5G connectivity make it seem like a relic from the past. With an unreasonable price tag of around $2000, this phone is a tough sell in today's market. But does its old hardware still have what it takes to deliver a good user experience?

vivo Y37 Pro

In an era where smartphones are becoming increasingly premium, the $150 price range has lost some of its former glory. However, there's still a significant demand for budget-friendly options that offer solid performance and practical features. The Vivo Y37 Pro, part of Vivo's Y series, targets this segment with a well-balanced combination of design, durability, and functionality. The phone's elegant design belies its affordable price, featuring a clean and minimalistic flat body with rounded corners and smooth transitions. The back cover boasts an advanced coating technology that creates a visually stunning effect, resembling a sea of flowers. Weighing in at 199g and measuring 8.09mm in thickness, the phone is both comfortable to hold and easy to carry. The Vivo Y37 Pro sports a 6.68-inch LCD panel with a high refresh rate of up to 120Hz, ensuring smooth scrolling and a responsive touch experience. The screen's brightness reaches up to 7237 nits, making it easily readable under direct sunlight. The phone is also equipped with a large 6000mAh battery that offers exceptional longevity, lasting through a full day of heavy use. The Vivo Y37 Pro features a 50MP primary camera on the back and a 5MP front camera, delivering decent results in well-lit conditions. The phone's AI-driven photo processing capabilities are particularly noteworthy, allowing users to remove unwanted objects from their photos with ease. With fast charging support and respectable speeds, the battery life is more than sufficient for most users. The Vivo Y37 Pro is a testament to the fact that budget smartphones can still offer a well-rounded experience. With its durable design, impressive battery life, and sufficient performance for everyday tasks, it remains a strong contender in the $150 price range. For those who prioritize practicality and value over the latest tech features, the Vivo Y37 Pro is an excellent choice that won't disappoint.
