realme 13 Pro Extreme Edition

The Realme 13 Pro Extreme Edition is here, boasting serious upgrades from its predecessors. This powerhouse device packs a punch with its Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset and Lightning Fast 45W charging capabilities. With 12GB of RAM and two storage options, it's perfect for gamers, photographers, or those seeking a reliable daily driver. Available in two stunning color options, this phone promises to deliver exceptional performance, stunning display, and robust camera setup at an affordable price point. Let's dive into the details and see if it lives up to its promise.

Google Pixel 9

The Google Pixel 9 is a solid smartphone that offers a clean Google software experience, powerful cameras, and a compact form factor. This year's model brings several upgrades, including a new chipset, brighter display, larger battery, and a new ultra-wide camera. The design has changed, with the pixel 9 being bigger and heavier than its predecessor, but still retains an IP68 certification for dust and water resistance. The OLED display is slightly larger at 6.3 inches and features a 1080p resolution, Gorilla Glass Victus protection, and a 120Hz refresh rate. The max brightness has received an impressive boost to 2200 nits, making it ideal for outdoor use on sunny days. The camera system has been improved with autofocus for the selfie camera and a new ultra-wide camera that captures solid images. The Pixel 9 runs on Google's Tensor G4 chipset, which packs a new CPU design but retains the same TPU for AI tasks as its predecessor. Battery life has also seen an improvement, but charging times remain disappointing. The camera can record video in up to 4K at 60 FPS with all cameras, but detail and stabilization leave room for improvement. Overall, the Pixel 9 is a solid smartphone that offers nearly everything the Pro Models can, but loses some of its compact feel. While it may not be a game-changer, it's a reliable choice for those looking for a great camera experience and clean software experience.
