Motorola Moto G40 Fusion

The Motorola Moto G40 Fusion's disassembly process is a complex procedure that requires precision and patience. To begin, the SIM card tray must be removed, followed by prying off the back housing with a plastic tool. Once loose, applying heat will help release the adhesive, allowing for easy removal of the fingerprint reader and back housing. This exposes various components, including the LED flash, camera lenses, battery cable, and more. The process is detailed and involved, requiring careful attention to each step to avoid damage.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro+

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro is one of the newest mid-range phones from Xiaomi. While there are many Redmi devices on the market, this model stands out with its more powerful chipset and stereo speakers compared to other non-Pro models. However, it lags behind the more expensive Pro Plus variant in terms of camera capabilities and charging speed. The phone's design is flat and glossy, making it prone to smudges. It has an IP53 rating for dust and water resistance. The 6.67-inch AMOLED display offers a 1080p resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and Gorilla Glass 5 protection, although its maximum brightness is slightly lower than the Pro Plus. The camera setup includes a 50-megapixel primary sensor, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and a 2-megapixel macro camera. While the main camera produces excellent photos with great detail, low noise, high contrast, and punchy colors, it's not as good as the 200-megapixel camera on the Pro Plus variant. The phone runs MIUI 14 on top of Android 12, which brings some new features but is still similar to previous Xiaomi interfaces. The performance is satisfactory for multitasking and gaming, thanks to the Mediatek Dimensity 1080 chipset. The battery life is decent, with an endurance rating of 97 hours in our tests. Overall, the Redmi Note 12 Pro offers a solid mid-range experience with a great screen, decent camera capabilities, fast charging, and good performance. While it may not be perfect, it's definitely worth recommending for its price point.
