realme GT

The Realme GT 5G is a true flagship killer that's now going global. This phone has stepped up its game with a impressive design, featuring a glossy and dramatic gradient called Accelerated Track. The curved back panel is made from glass, making it feel nice in the hand. One of the standout features of this phone is its display - a 6.43-inch AMOLED with a 1080p resolution and a punch hole at the top for the selfie camera. The display is plenty sharp and contrasty, thanks to OLED technology, and has HDR10+ support. The high refresh rate makes swiping through the UI and scrolling content much smoother. Under the hood, the Realme GT 5G features a Snapdragon 888 chipset, which provides stellar CPU and GPU performance. However, thermal throttling was experienced during an hour-long stress test, although this didn't affect actual game performance. The phone also has a good set of cameras, including a 64-megapixel quad main camera, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide cam, and a 2-megapixel macro cam. Photos from the main camera are pretty good, but not flagship-grade, while portrait shots are decent with nice colors and contrast. Battery life is also impressive, with an endurance rating of 98 hours in our proprietary tests. The phone comes with a huge 65W Super Dart charger that's incredibly fast. Overall, the Realme GT 5G offers a ton of value for its price, making it worth recommending to those who don't need high-end features like high-fps gaming and flagship-grade cameras.

vivo Y300 Pro

The Vivo Y300 Pro stands out with its massive 6,500mAh battery, making it an attractive option for those seeking long-lasting power without added bulk. Despite its large capacity, the phone's thickness and weight are comparable to regular flagship devices, thanks to Vivo's innovative battery packaging and reduced motherboard size. In our testing, the phone performed exceptionally well, lasting 5 hours in a heavy endurance test with minimal battery drop. Video watching consumed just 4% of the battery, allowing for up to 20 hours of continuous playback. Gaming performance was also impressive, with Honor of Kings playable at 90 FPS for up to 11 hours. The Vivo Y300 Pro supports fast charging, reaching 100% in just 48 minutes. Its battery can be charged up to 1,700 times and still retain over 80% capacity. The phone's design is sleek, with a 6.7-inch OLED display featuring rounded corners and a slight curve for comfortable handling. The Y300 Pro also boasts an IR remote control and IP65 waterproof rating, making it practical for everyday use. With up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB storage, the phone performs well in daily tasks and can handle demanding games like Honor of Kings at 90 FPS. However, camera quality is below average, with no optical image stabilization. The Vivo Y300 Pro starts at CNY 799 (around $253 USD) for its base variant with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. This phone is ideal for those prioritizing battery life, multimedia use, and casual gaming. While it may have some drawbacks, the Y300 Pro's impressive battery performance makes it a compelling option for those seeking a long-lasting device without added bulk.
