realme Note 60

The Realme Note 60 is an entry-level smartphone that promises a lot at an affordable price. Priced around $80, this device comes with a 6.74-inch LCD display, a 5,000mAh battery, and a Unisoc T612 processor. The phone also features a single 32MP camera, 4-8GB of RAM, and expandable storage. With its budget-friendly tag, one would expect some compromises on performance and build quality. But does it deliver? Does the Realme Note 60 justify its price, or is it just another mediocre offering in the budget smartphone market? We'll find out in this review.

Xiaomi Redmi 9T

The Xiaomi Redmi 9T is an entry-level phone that shares many similarities with its counterpart, the Poco M3. However, there are some notable differences that set it apart. The design, for instance, boasts a glossy metallic finish and a splash-proof build, making it a great option for those who want peace of mind. The device also features NFC support, which is not available on the Poco M3. Under the hood, the Redmi 9T sports a Snapdragon 662 chipset, which provides decent performance but falls short in GPU-intensive tasks. This is likely due to the phone's 1080p display, which can be demanding on the processor. Despite this, the device manages to deliver excellent battery life, with our proprietary tests yielding an impressive 150 hours of usage. The cameras on the Redmi 9T are a mixed bag. The 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera is a welcome addition, but its photos lack detail and sharpness. The main camera takes good photos during the day, but struggles in low light conditions. Night mode does improve the quality, but it's still not up to par with other phones in this price range. In conclusion, the Xiaomi Redmi 9T offers a great balance of features for its price. While it may not excel in every department, it makes up for it with its splash-proof build, NFC support, and excellent battery life. For those looking for an entry-level phone that ticks all the right boxes, the Redmi 9T is definitely worth considering.
