OnePlus Nord N30 phone review
OnePlus Nord N30 - lost relevance
Today's smartphone market is characterized by incredible competition among manufacturers in every price segment.

Realme 11 Pro phone review
Realme 11 Pro - when you don't want to hear customers
The tenth generation of inexpensive mid-range smartphones from Realme turned out to be clearly not the most successful.

Xiaomi Redmi A2+ is a disappointing repetition
The first-generation A-series smartphones from the Chinese company Redmi (a sub-brand of Xiaomi Corporation) did not arouse great interest among the audience.

Xiaomi Redmi A2 phone review
Xiaomi Redmi A2 - former compromises
The Chinese company Redmi (a sub-brand of Xiaomi Corporation) last year released a couple of smartphones in the lower price segment within the A-series.

And the hero of today's review did not lose them at all.
Cubot P80 phone review
Cubot P80 - late bestseller
The Chinese company Cubot is gradually losing its popularity outside of China.

The developer sometimes tries to rectify the situation by releasing balanced and fairly competitive models, but often they enter the global market late. So, the hero of today's review has too many worthy opponents.
Realme 10T phone review
Realme 10T - repetition is not good
The Chinese company Realme also faced the global economic crisis. Unfortunately, this fact is gradually reflected in the products of the corporation.
