Pros and Cons

realme 13 Pro+

Strengths

The phone has a very capable camera with the benefit of AI which not all low-end phones have today.
It has a long-lasting battery, as it performed well in PC Mark's Work 3.0 battery test and provided 33 hours of media playback in our video Loop test.
The chipset is very capable, despite being a bit dated, making it suitable for content creation.
The phone has a great value-for-money proposition, retailing at just 24,999 pesos for the 12 GB plus 20 GB variant.
It offers various installment plans with 0% interest, making it even lighter on the wallet.

Weaknesses

The chipset is a bit dated, which might be a concern for some users.
There aren't too many notable features in the Realme UI 5.0 software skin, aside from AI features like AI screen recognition and AI smart Loop.
The phone heats up slightly when playing graphics-intensive games, such as Hongkai Star Rail.

Apple iPhone Xr

Strengths

The camera is very good, details look great and colors are neutral and lifelike.
The front-facing flash is a great help when taking selfies in low light conditions.
The gesture controls are just so much better and more fluid than having a home button.
The price difference of $250 for a smaller screen with a higher resolution on other models makes the iPhone Xr's lower resolution easy to overlook.

realme 13 Pro+

The Realme 13 Pro+: a smartphone that promises to deliver exceptional performance, impressive camera capabilities, and a long-lasting battery life. Priced at just under 25,000 pesos, this device aims to bridge the gap between budget-friendly options and high-end flagships. With its Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset and Adreno 710 GPU, it's designed to handle demanding tasks with ease. The camera setup, featuring AI-enhanced capabilities, is also a major selling point for content creators on-the-go. But can this device truly deliver on its promises?

Apple iPhone Xr

The Apple iPhone XR is the most affordable model in Apple's latest lineup, with a price that undercuts the higher-end options by $250. Despite being the cheapest option, the XR still offers impressive performance and features. One notable compromise made on the XR is its lower resolution display compared to other models. However, when considering the significant price difference, this is an easy trade-off for many users. The iPhone XR also boasts a comparable battery life to the 10S Max, making it a great option for those who want a reliable device without breaking the bank. The camera on the XR is surprisingly good, with excellent details and colors in both photos and videos. While it lacks a telephoto lens like the dual-camera setup found in other models, it can still take great portrait shots with a blurred background effect that's spot-on. The selfie camera is also impressive, taking very good selfies even in low-light conditions. Gesture controls on the iPhone XR are smooth and intuitive once you get used to them. While some users might find this transition challenging, it's worth giving it a try for those who want to experience iOS at its best. The iPhone XR has received criticism for being underwhelming compared to previous years' flagship models. However, this may be due to rising prices and changing consumer habits rather than any inherent flaws with the device itself. Ultimately, the Apple iPhone XR is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a reliable and feature-packed smartphone without the hefty price tag associated with other iPhones. Its impressive performance, great camera, and smooth gesture controls make it well worth considering, especially for those who want to try out iOS or upgrade from an older iPhone model.
