Pros and Cons

Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G

Strengths

The phone still feels premium after more than a year, with a solid glass back paired with a plastic frame.
The 6.67-inch full HD Plus AMOLED display with a 120 refresh rate and HDR 10 plus is a joy to use even today.
The camera delivers sharp vibrant photos in good lighting, with dynamic range and color accuracy remaining impressive.
The 5,000mAh battery still averages about 5 hours on screen time during heavy usage, despite some degradation over time.
The 67 W fast charger is a lifesaver, able to juice up the phone from 0% to 100% in under an hour.

Weaknesses

The processor, paired with 8GB of RAM, starts to struggle with demanding apps or games like PUBG or Call of Duty mobile.
Low light conditions can reveal noticeable noise and reduced details in photos taken with the main camera.
The front camera struggles in backlit conditions, delivering less-than-ideal results.
Battery degradation over time means that heavy usage can result in less than 5 hours of screen time.
While not exactly cheap, the phone's price has increased significantly in certain regions, making it feel like a luxury item.

Motorola Moto G15

Strengths

The device has a fingerprint sensor that doubles as a power button with volume markers, which is convenient.

The device's processor is the same one used in the g15 Power and Helio G81 extreme, which is capable of handling demanding tasks.
It has a headphone jack at the top with branding of Dolby Atmos, although the reviewer is unsure where that Dolby Atmos is.

Weaknesses

The device's build quality is made out of plastic all around apart from just the front being a corner Gorilla Glass 3, which may not be as premium-feeling as some other devices.
It has 4 or 8 GB of RAM, with either 128 to 512 GB of storage, but 4 GB of RAM may be on the lower side for phones these days.
The device's processor is the same one used in the g15 Power and Helio G81 extreme, which may not be as powerful as some other devices.
It is overpriced for what it offers, with a price point around $160-$170, which is more than some other devices that offer similar specs.
