realme C65

The Realme C65 is an intriguing entry-level device that packs a punch despite its budget-friendly price tag. With a Mediatech Helio G85 chipset and 5,000mAh battery, it promises to deliver decent performance and all-day battery life. The phone's design, while not groundbreaking, is still visually appealing. Features like Smart sensing, AI Boost, and Writing mode add a layer of convenience to the user experience. But can this device truly excel in its intended role as a reliable daily driver? Let's dive deeper into our review to find out.

Samsung Galaxy A04

The Samsung Galaxy A04 is a budget-friendly smartphone that offers a large display, good battery life, and decent performance. The device features a 5,000mAh battery, which should last for a full day or even multiple days with moderate use. Unfortunately, the phone does not support 5G connectivity, limiting it to 4G LTE speeds. One of the standout features of the A04 is its display, which is only 720p but still looks crisp and clear on its large canvas. The device also gets very loud, making it suitable for watching videos or listening to music. However, the phone's performance is a major letdown, with slow processing speeds that make everyday tasks feel sluggish. The A04 also lacks features like NFC, which means users cannot take advantage of mobile contactless payments. The phone's build quality feels surprisingly premium, considering its low-end status. However, it does pick up fingerprints easily due to its glossy back. The device is made entirely of plastic, except for the glass display. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy A04 may not be the most exciting or powerful smartphone on the market, but it could be a viable option for those who want a budget-friendly phone with a large display and good battery life. Its slow performance and lack of features are significant drawbacks, but its price point might make it an attractive choice for some users.
