Pros and Cons

Motorola Moto G53

Strengths

The phone offers a gloriously stock vanilla Android experience
You've got some pretty decent specs, display is unfortunately nothing tried home about but the battery life absolutely bloody wonderful
The camera is easy to use one-handed and you can drag down all the major toggles with a single thumb like sir in photomod by default
You've got lots of other bonus camera modes you can play around with, like some portrait modes, a dedicated night vision board, and a 50 megapixel Ultra res mode
The battery life is absolutely bloody wonderful, easily giving you a full day of play, most likely two days of use between charges
You've got that energy efficient Snapdragon 480 plus chipset and the stock Android Vibe as well

Weaknesses

The display is unfortunately nothing tried home about
There's no Optical image stabilization in the camera, making it less reliable in low-light conditions
The macro effort is a bit of a disappointment with only a 2 megapixel sensor
The charging speed is a bit slow at 10 watts, which can take ages to fill up that 5 000 milliamp hour capacity cell
The camera struggles in lower light conditions and HDR situations, producing blurry or gritty images
You might want to look at the likes of Xiaomi Redmi smartphones if you're after absolutely Tip-Top performance at this sort of price point

Motorola Moto G53

The Motorola Moto G53 is an affordable smartphone that offers a pure Android experience without the bloat of unnecessary software. Priced at £189, it's a budget-friendly option for those who want a hassle-free device with decent specs. The phone boasts a 5,000mAh battery, which provides more than a day of use, and a 50MP primary camera with a 2MP macro sensor. While the display may not be top-notch, the Moto G53's strengths lie in its efficient performance, snappy interface, and reliable battery life.

realme Narzo 50A

The Realme Narzo 50A is an affordable smartphone priced from Rs. 11,999 in India. While it checks all the right boxes on paper, its worthiness of the price tag remains uncertain. Design-wise, the phone sticks to Realme's familiar principles with a simple yet practical back panel made of polycarbonate. The rear camera module extends till the center of the phone and engulfs the fingerprint reader, making it sometimes difficult to find. However, the grooved texture on the back helps with grip due to its big and heavy build at 207 grams. Performance-wise, the Realme Narzo 50A is decent for casual gaming but struggles with heavy games. The Mediatek Helio G85 Soc doesn't always allow heavy games to run smoothly, with Call of Duty Mobile just playable at default low graphics settings. Moreover, the phone warmed up quickly during gameplay. In terms of display, the phone features a 6.5-inch HD+ screen with a water drop style notch that looks outdated compared to punch-hole displays offered by competitors. However, the display looked sufficiently sharp and had decent viewing angles. Battery life is an area where the Narzo 50A excels, lasting two whole days with casual gaming and up to three days on light usage. The cameras, though impressive on paper, failed to impress in real-world scenarios. The primary camera struggled to produce detailed photos, especially when zoomed in. Selfies had good detail but looked over-sharpened, and the portrait mode was subpar. Macros weren't great either, looking over-sharpened and dramatic. In conclusion, the Realme Narzo 50A is a smartphone with reliable battery life and basic features. However, it's not ideal for gamers due to its performance limitations. Its cameras also fall short of expectations. Overall, this phone is best suited for those seeking a budget option with long battery life but can live with average cameras, design, and performance.
