Samsung Galaxy M54

The device features a large 6.7-inch AMOLED display, a quad-camera setup with a 108MP primary sensor, and a long-lasting 5000mAh battery. Performance-wise, the phone is powered by a mid-tier Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, which while not the most powerful, still manages to handle everyday tasks and gaming with ease. The device runs on Android 13 out of the box and comes with Samsung's One UI 5.1 skin. The camera setup on the M54 is impressive, capturing detailed images and videos in various lighting conditions. However, low-light performance could be improved. The phone also supports 8K video recording and has a dedicated Night mode for better low-light shots. Gaming on the M54 is acceptable, with good fluidity in less demanding titles like Call of Duty and SpongeBob. However, more graphics-intensive games may struggle to maintain high frame rates or experience stability issues.

Overall, the Samsung Galaxy M54 is a great option for those looking for a reliable mid-range smartphone with excellent cameras, a large display, and long battery life. While gaming performance may not be the best, it's still a great device that won't break the bank.

realme X7 Max

The Realme X7 Max is an alternative to the popular Realme GT, specifically designed for the Indian market and globally sold as the Realme GT Neo. The phone has a high-end MediaTek chipset, replacing the Snapdragon 888 in the original GT model. Design-wise, the X7 Max has a glossy stripe accent and shiny logo, giving it a rather catchy look. The phone's build is made from plastic, not glass, but still feels premium and on the lighter side. The display is a 6.43-inch AMOLED with a 1080p resolution, fast 120Hz refresh rate, and punch-hole selfie camera. The display itself is really nice, sharp, and contrasty, with vivid colors that can be made accurate with color settings. The phone's audio features a traditional headphone jack and hybrid stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support. In terms of performance, the X7 Max has a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 5G chipset, which provides flagship-grade performance comparable to Snapdragon 860 or 870 chipsets. Battery life is also good, with a 4500mAh battery that supports 50W Super Dart charging. The camera setup is identical to the Realme GT, with a 64MP main cam, 8MP ultra-wide camera, and 2MP macro cam. While not flagship-grade, the cameras are decent for the class, producing good quality photos and videos. Overall, the Realme X7 Max offers a great user experience, similar to the Realme GT, but at a potentially lower price point. If you can find it, it's definitely worth considering as a more affordable alternative to the flagship model.
