Pros and Cons

Xiaomi REDMI Turbo 4

Strengths

The phone features a fast refresh rate AMOLED display with peak brightness of 3200 nits for eye protection.
It comes equipped with a powerful new flagship processor, the Dimensity 8400 Ultra, which boasts cutting-edge technology and impressive capabilities.
The device has a huge battery capacity of 6550 mAh, which provides excellent performance in both normal and low temperatures.
The phone supports fast charging powered by Xiaomi Surge P2 chip, which can charge to 73% in just 30 minutes.
The camera is equipped with a 50 megapixel Sony IMX600 sensor featuring a large f1.5 aperture and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), making it a solid choice for mobile photography enthusiasts.

Weaknesses

The phone's weight has increased to 205g, which is 20g heavier than its predecessor.
Although the design remains sophisticated and functional, the phone may not be as light and thin as before.
There is no option to customize the dual warm and cool light setup in the camera module.
The phone's price of 1,999 Chinese yuan (approximately $220 in the UK or $273 in the USA) may be considered high for some users.
Although the Dimensity 8400 Ultra processor provides strong performance, it may not meet the demands of extreme gaming requirements.

Samsung Galaxy S25

Strengths

Zero risk for Samsung with this spec bump, making it a textbook example of a zero-risk upgrade.
The new chip, Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy, might be a big enough bump that we notice it and maybe we don't even need a much bigger battery.
The new ISP on the chip might breathe new life into these cameras, potentially surprising us with better performance.
Samsung has been good about software updates lately, promising seven years of updates on their newest flagships.
The new One UI 7 is a refreshed look with fresh aesthetics and iOS-inspired features, making it a nice update to the S25.

Weaknesses

It's just a spec bump, with no IP69, no silicon carbide battery, no ultra-fast charging, and no brighter display.
The new camera features might not be enough to justify an upgrade for those who already have a decently new phone.
Some of the AI features are cool but debatable in terms of how much value they bring to the phone.
Clear cases can turn yellow over time, which is a problem dbrand's Ghost Case 2.0 aims to solve.
The only way to tell the S25 Ultra from the S24 is by a new colorway, making it hard for some users to justify an upgrade.
