Huawei Pura 70

The Huawei Pur 70 Ultra is a unique smartphone that boasts an impressive camera system, featuring a retracting main lens with variable aperture, making it ideal for capturing professional-grade photos. The device's OLED screen offers excellent protection and fast charging capabilities, adding to its appeal. While it excels in still photography, its video recording quality falls short of expectations. Additionally, the Pur 70 Ultra's chipset is not as powerful as competing flagships, and it lacks official Google support. Despite these drawbacks, this phone may be perfect for those seeking exceptional camera performance.

Samsung Galaxy M15 5G

The Samsung Galaxy M15 5G is a budget smartphone that packs a punch with its impressive features. The device boasts a stunning Super AMOLED display with a Full HD+ resolution and 90Hz refresh rate, making it almost flagship-level. The phone's build quality is also noteworthy, despite being made of plastic, which gives it a premium feel. In terms of performance, the Galaxy M15 5G delivers decent results for a budget device. The camera setup is satisfactory, with a wide-angle sensor and macro mode that produces good-quality photos. However, the night photography mode didn't make much of an impact, and video recording tops out at Full HD at 30fps. One of the standout features of this phone is its massive 6000mAh battery, which provides an incredible 12 hours and 42 minutes of battery life according to PCMark benchmarking. The addition of 25W fast charging support is also a welcome feature. Other notable aspects of the Galaxy M15 5G include its dual-SIM capabilities with 5G connectivity, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.3 support, and NFC for contactless payments. While not perfect, this phone offers an excellent balance of features at an affordable price point. The display, software, and battery life are particularly notable strengths that set it apart from other budget smartphones.
