Motorola Edge 50 Pro

The Motorola Edge 50 Pro is a high-end smartphone that packs some impressive features despite being positioned as the mid-range model this year. With its curvy design, Pantone-validated color science display, and stereo speakers, it's hard to ignore its appeal. But can it deliver on performance and camera capabilities?

Samsung Galaxy M54

The Samsung Galaxy M54 is a solid mid-range smartphone that offers a great balance between features and price. The device features a large 6.7-inch AMOLED display, a quad-camera setup with a 108MP primary sensor, and a long-lasting 5000mAh battery. Performance-wise, the phone is powered by a mid-tier Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, which while not the most powerful, still manages to handle everyday tasks and gaming with ease. The device runs on Android 13 out of the box and comes with Samsung's One UI 5.1 skin. The camera setup on the M54 is impressive, capturing detailed images and videos in various lighting conditions. However, low-light performance could be improved. The phone also supports 8K video recording and has a dedicated Night mode for better low-light shots. Gaming on the M54 is acceptable, with good fluidity in less demanding titles like Call of Duty and SpongeBob. However, more graphics-intensive games may struggle to maintain high frame rates or experience stability issues.

Overall, the Samsung Galaxy M54 is a great option for those looking for a reliable mid-range smartphone with excellent cameras, a large display, and long battery life. While gaming performance may not be the best, it's still a great device that won't break the bank.
