OUKITEL WP52 - unrealized potential
The Chinese company Oukitel continues to create new inexpensive rugged smartphones. Unfortunately, quantity does not always hide the quality of new products. Thus, the hero of today's review could potentially claim to be a hit, but the developer's excessive haste led to the appearance of many unpleasant shortcomings in it.
DOOGEE S Punk phone review
DOOGEE S Punk - a great name
It is difficult to deny originality to the Chinese company Doogee. The corporation is trying to diversify the range of smartphones it produces as much as possible, which is evident from their design, technical characteristics, and focus on different categories of users. The hero of today's review, despite his rebellious name, has actually become an ordinary representative of secure phones at the border of the lower and middle price segments.
OUKITEL WP39 phone review
OUKITEL WP39 - the optimal smartphone without any special features

OUKITEL WP50 phone review
OUKITEL WP50 - a destroyed hit?
Sometimes a developer's excellent idea can be completely buried by its mediocre implementation.

However, something clearly went wrong, judging by the hero of the review.
TECLAST T50HD tablet review
Teclast T50HD - a tablet ahead of the price category
A significant number of mobile electronics lovers choose a new gadget based on the totality of all its characteristics, which include not only the attractiveness of the design and processor performance, but also the amount of memory, battery capacity, the presence of wide functionality and, of course, whether all of the above matches the asking price. It is the actual ratio of the usefulness of the device for the user and its price tag that is the determining factor in sales. And this parameter in the Teclast T50HD tablet is at the highest level.
Honor Magic V Flip phone review
Honor Magic V Flip - yesterday's innovations at new prices
Conventional all-in-one smartphones are much less likely to excite sophisticated audiences. More and more people want to see more relevant, and often convenient, form factors. Unfortunately, the developers were only able to implement a different design with multiple displays in the higher price segment. However, the Honor company decided to present a model with a more affordable price tag, while also having excellent functionality and decent appearance.
Xiaomi 14 Civi phone review
Xiaomi 14 Civi - a serious upgrade of the line
The Civi series of smartphones from the Chinese company Xiaomi cannot be considered truly popular. The emphasis solely on attractive appearance made the phones not the most optimal in terms of price and quality. However, the world-famous manufacturer decided to correct the situation and presented the hero of today’s review, which eliminates literally all the shortcomings of its predecessors.
Cubot A10 phone review
Cubot A10 - mediocrity at its finest
The Chinese company Cubot specializes mainly in the production of inexpensive smartphones. It would seem that many years of experience in developing devices in the low price segment should have a beneficial effect on the quality of literally every new model. However, it is not so rare for a manufacturer to create frankly passable and uninteresting devices like the hero of today’s review, to which there are dozens, if not hundreds, of alternatives on the market.
Oppo Find X8 Ultra phone review
Oppo Find X8 Ultra - the ultimate good offer
How sometimes you want to get the most technologically advanced and beautiful smartphone on the market. Many popular manufacturers present their flagships every year, but the average user does not always have the desire to purchase any of them. But we are more than sure that one look at the hero of today’s review is enough to fall in love with him forever.
HOTWAV T7 Pro phone review
HOTWAV T7 Pro - rugged and affordable
The Chinese company Hotwav has quickly gone from producing bulky and low-functional rugged smartphones to ultra-durable and productive mobile assistants that are ready to withstand any obstacles. It is surprising that such devices can be found in the manufacturer’s product range at the border of low and medium price categories. This is exactly what the hero of today’s review refers to.
Xiaomi POCO M6 4G phone review
Xiaomi POCO M6 4G - disappointment, period?
The Chinese company Poco (a sub-brand of Xiaomi) every year delights fans with dozens of bestsellers in different price segments. Most of the products it produces amaze with the price-quality ratio, but sometimes there are rare exceptions that evoke rather negative emotions. Unfortunately, so did the hero of today’s review.
Vivo S19 phone review
Vivo S19 - different from opponents
Representatives of the mid-price segment of the smartphone market have made significant progress in performance and functionality over the past few years. However, the technical characteristics and appearance of such devices from leading manufacturers are extremely similar. The hero of today’s review is trying to stand out against the background of excellent, but at the same time monotonous rivals due to a number of competitive advantages. And he really succeeds.
Vivo S19 Pro phone review
Vivo S19 Pro is a serious blow to opponents
The S-series of smartphones from the Chinese company Vivo has always been distinguished by its excellent design and technical characteristics worthy of the price category. However, sometimes the representatives of the line lacked the power of the CPU, and sometimes the photo capabilities were disappointing. The hero of today's review is deprived of the listed problems and is in fact a slightly simplified flagship.
OUKITEL C50 phone review
OUKITEL C50 - savings on everything except the processor
Chinese smartphone manufacturers continue to expand their product range. Thus, the well-known developer Oukitel decided to present a new model at the turn of the low and middle price segments. Unfortunately, an experienced company was unable to create a completely balanced phone, so for literally every plus of the device there is a rather critical minus.
Oppo Reno 12 Pro phone review
Oppo Reno 12 Pro is not a flagship, but a potential hit
Almost every generation of Reno-line smartphones from the Chinese company Oppo has found love among hundreds of thousands of customers, but there are still not many real bestsellers in the series. And this fact is more likely related to marketing, because most of the phones were distinguished by their beautiful design, advanced technical characteristics, and wide functionality. I would like to hope that the technologically advanced and stylish hero of today’s review will sell out in more impressive quantities.
Oppo Reno 12 phone review
Oppo Reno 12 - fantastic beauty without obvious disadvantages
The designers of the Chinese company Oppo can work wonders. A huge number of smartphones produced by the famous brand have a magnificent appearance that is easy to fall in love with at first sight. The hero of today’s review is one of these, but in addition to its impressive exterior, it also offers a whole host of other competitive advantages.
OUKITEL C51 phone review
OUKITEL C51 - a simple assistant
The need of the smartphone market audience for inexpensive devices is undeniable. However, if a few years ago users did not expect any frills from representatives of the lower price category, now they demand both a stylish appearance and extensive functionality from such units. Unfortunately, according to the last parameter, the hero of today’s review is inferior to a number of opponents.
HOTWAV Cyber 15 smartphone review
HOTWAV Cyber 15 - a camera phone that can withstand any difficulties
Rugged smartphones in the mid-price segment are getting better every year. The performance and functionality of such devices are gradually catching up with those of models without increased strength. The hero of today's review is one of the first phones whose photographic capabilities are responsible for the latest 200-megapixel photo module. However, HOTWAV Cyber 15 has many other competitive advantages that are ready to make it a real hit.
Vivo IQOO Neo 9S Pro phone review
Vivo IQOO Neo 9S Pro - Minimal improvements for greater appeal

So, she decided only to update the processor of her bestseller, which has already caused a storm of positive emotions among her fans.
OUKITEL WP38 phone review
OUKITEL WP38 - how excessive savings spoil a potential hit
The Chinese company Oukitel is trying to significantly expand the range of inexpensive rugged smartphones, but not every attempt can be considered successful. The desire to reduce costs results in serious problems for many of the manufacturer’s models. So, the hero of today's review has suffered from display quality and photographic capabilities.
Realme GT 6T phone review
Realme GT 6T is a hit with 100% probability
The Realme company decided to do something unconventional with its mid-priced models this year. Thus, smartphones intended for China with the Neo SE index have not yet entered the international market with other names, remaining a privilege only for residents of the Middle Kingdom. But the hero of today’s review changes previously established paradigms, providing more people with the opportunity to buy an incredibly functional gadget for its price.
ZTE Axon 60 Ultra phone review
ZTE Axon 60 Ultra - one step away from the flagships
The Chinese company ZTE definitely knows how to make high-quality smartphones, but recently controversial models have also come out of its production line. Thus, the basic phones of the Axon series turned out to be frankly unsuccessful; they are inferior to their opponents both in functionality and design. But the senior representative of the line came out much better; it is ready to compete on equal terms with many sub-flagships from well-known brands.
XXX phone review
ZTE Axon 60 - an unsuccessful continuation of the legendary series
The Axon series of smartphones from the Chinese company ZTE has always offered an excellent combination of functionality and a reasonable price. As a result, phones in the middle and high price segments were very popular. Unfortunately, the developer decided to radically change the direction of the line, and the changes cannot be called positive.
UMIDIGI G6 5G phone review
UMIDIGI G6 5G - crazy and not entirely necessary functionality
In pursuit of consumers, smartphone manufacturers sometimes do strange things. Thus, even experienced developers often introduce unusual features into their products that are not easy to consider as competitive advantages. A similar situation happened to the hero of today’s review.
Google Pixel 8a phone review
Google Pixel 8a - younger, but no less impressive
Google definitely knows how to make smartphones, but most of its products are aimed at the higher price segment. However, the corporation's budget and experience, the presence of hundreds of first-class specialists, allowed the developer to transfer literally all the flagship features to a phone in the mid-price category. That is why the hero of today's review deserves close attention.
DOOGEE N55 Pro phone review
DOOGEE N55 Pro - when memory was not a salvation
Improving a successful inexpensive smartphone and moving it to a different price segment is a difficult task. But it becomes almost impossible if the base model was also mediocre. And all the experience of the Chinese company Doogee did not allow it to turn the controversial device into a potential bestseller.
DOOGEE N55 phone review
DOOGEE N55 - mediocre, but inexpensive
Smartphones in the low-cost segment from the Chinese company DOOGEE often delight with excellent price-quality ratio, which the manufacturer has been striving for for many years. However, sometimes even experienced developers make mistakes. And it seems that the hero of today's review is close to such a description.
Realme C65 5G phone review
Realme C65 5G - deliberately unsuccessful?
Expanding the range of products offered is a prerequisite for successful activities for any smartphone manufacturer. The tastes of each user are different, so the developer simply needs to release dozens of phones of different price categories and directions. Unfortunately, the pursuit of quantity sometimes results in a loss of quality. That is why, even from the assembly lines of leading corporations, devices like the hero of today’s review sometimes come out.
Ulefone Armor 26 Ultra phone review
Ulefone Armor 26 Ultra - heavy artillery
The Chinese company Ulefone never ceases to amaze its fans with new smartphones. Now it’s the turn to present the manufacturer’s updated flagship devices. The hero of today's review combines excellent performance for the price segment, decent photo capabilities, and many other competitive advantages. Of course, there were some shortcomings, but you can safely turn a blind eye to many of them.
OUKITEL C37 phone review
OUKITEL C37 - pleasing with memory, saddening with functionality
The Chinese company Oukitel specializes in creating inexpensive smartphones, but even with all its experience, not all phones produced are perfect. In some cases, the manufacturer saves too much on the display; in some models, the buyer will be disappointed with the photo capabilities. The hero of today's review is deprived of some of the functions that the audience would so like to see.
UMIDIGI G9 phone review
UMIDIGI G9 is a great inexpensive smartphone
The Chinese company Umidigi has partially lost popularity over the past few years. The release of a number of frankly mediocre phones had a negative impact on the brand’s attractiveness to the audience, and the lack of a large-scale marketing campaign only alienated potential buyers from the corporation’s products. However, the developer still managed to react to the changing situation and created many extremely competitive devices at once. One of them is the hero of today’s review.
Ulefone Note 18 Ultra phone review
Ulefone Note 18 Ultra - an attempt to catch up with the leaders
The Chinese company Ulefone is far from being the most successful smartphone manufacturer, but it shows impressive financial results every year, while many of its rivals have already gone bankrupt or lost their audience. At the same time, the corporation stays afloat not due to a large-scale advertising campaign, but precisely thanks to balanced and competitive phones. The hero of today’s review is ready to outperform opponents in the price category in terms of functionality and performance.
HOTWAV W11 smartphone review
HOTWAV W11 - unexpectedly good
You rarely expect a sea of positive emotions from secure smartphones at the border of the low and middle price segments. For the sake of increased phone durability, the manufacturer has to make serious compromises. The quality of the display, the autonomy, the functionality, and the photo capabilities come under the knife. But the Chinese company HOTWAV managed to avoid serious simplifications when creating the hero of today's review. This is why HOTWAV W11 looks advantageous against many opponents.
Huawei Pura 70 Ultra phone review
Huawei Pura 70 Ultra is not the most successful flagship
The Chinese company Huawei still has a loyal army of fans who buy millions of the manufacturer's devices every year. However, it is easy to notice that the abundance of serious sanctions from the United States to this day is reflected in the success of the corporation’s business and its products. Attempts to use proprietary processors and operating systems so far only lead to an increase in the gap from opponents. And the hero of today’s review is a clear confirmation of this.
HOTWAV Note 13 phone review
HOTWAV Note 13 - making the bestseller simpler
The Chinese company Hotwav has not been on the market for so long, but has already been able to release several commercially successful models. Even with a modest marketing campaign, the phones sold an impressive number of copies thanks to their balanced technical characteristics. But the manufacturer does not stop there and is constantly expanding its range. The hero of today's review is a simplified version of one of the developer's hits, which has a chance to at least partially repeat the success of its predecessor.
Oukitel C38 phone review
Oukitel C38 - needs more memory!
Smartphone manufacturers are trying to give competitive advantages to even their most inexpensive products. This is not an easy task, because the developer needs to stay within the cost limits and also maintain a balance of all model parameters. The Chinese company Oukitel has practically coped with all the difficulties described, so the hero of today’s review will definitely find a buyer. But there were some offensive disadvantages.
XXX phone review
Cubot Hafury V1 - a women's smartphone with a twist

Xiaomi Redmi Pad Pro phone review
Xiaomi Redmi Pad Pro - major improvements
Tablets from the sub-brand of the Chinese company Xiaomi called Redmi have sold millions of copies around the world. They provided the brand's signature quality, as well as excellent functionality and autonomy in their segment.

The hero of today's review completely eliminates this shortcoming, while maintaining a reasonable pricing policy.
Oukitel WP35 phone review
Oukitel WP35 - avoiding unnecessary risks
To achieve success, a smartphone manufacturer does not always need to release products that change the industry or revolutionize the price segment.

This is exactly what the hero of today’s review became.
Realme GT Neo 6 SE phone review
Realme GT Neo 6 SE is a fantastic smartphone

The hero of today's review evokes precisely such emotions, because he simply has no shortcomings within the price category.
Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 3 phone review
Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 3 is practically a revolution in the segment
The ability of the Chinese company Xiaomi to make not just hits, but smartphones that turn the market upside down is difficult to doubt. Thus, literally every year, a world-famous manufacturer creates several devices with a previously unprecedented price-quality ratio. And the hero of today’s review will make even the most sophisticated fan of mobile electronics reach for his wallet.
Blackview N6000SE phone review
Blackview N6000SE is not the most optimal downgrade
The original N6000 smartphone from the Chinese company Blackview found many fans thanks to its combination of durability, functionality, compact dimensions and reasonable price. But for some reason, the manufacturer decided that releasing a simplified version of the phone with a lower price tag would be a great idea. Unfortunately, the balance of the previously mentioned qualities of the device was lost.
Tecno Camon 30 Premier phone review
Tecno Camon 30 Premier - not a flagship, but a future hit?
The Chinese company Tecno still cannot be called an industry leader, but every year the quality of its products increases significantly. The hero of today's review is the most expensive representative of the manufacturer's range, although in reality it is a model in the mid-price category. But how good he is in all aspects.
Realme C65 phone review
Realme C65 - inexpensive and not the most interesting
Every self-respecting modern smartphone manufacturer cannot do without a wide range of products, because a sophisticated buyer wants to choose. Design, functionality, dimensions - the list of aspects for choosing a mobile assistant can be continued for a very long time. However, it is almost impossible to increase the number of devices offered without fairly passable products. This is precisely the hero of today’s review.
Motorola Edge 50 Pro phone review
Motorola Edge 50 Pro - ideal in the mid-price segment?
Motorola knows how to surprise. Even if not all the smartphones it creates are truly successful, the developer does not forget to release every few real bestsellers.

Let's take a closer look at all the advantages of the device.
Vivo X Fold3 Pro phone review
Vivo X Fold3 Pro - towards perfection
It is increasingly difficult for modern flagship smartphones to surprise the sophisticated public. Users have already seen top technical specifications, outstanding photo capabilities and other qualities in dozens of phones, so developers have to come up with new ways to amaze the audience. Thus, the Chinese company Vivo has released the hero of today’s review, namely the most ergonomic, thin and technologically advanced “clamshell” on the market.
Xiaomi POCO C61 phone review
Xiaomi POCO C61 - the cheapest bestseller possible?
The percentage of low-cost smartphones in manufacturers' revenues usually exceeds that of phones in the mid- and high-price segments. Affordable devices today have significantly improved functionality, design and autonomy, making them suitable for an increasing number of users. The hero of today's review will definitely not empty his wallet and at the same time tries to stand out from his rivals with a number of competitive advantages. But is this a future hit?
Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro phone review
Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro is a stylish bomb
The Chinese company Xiaomi knows how to delight with its smartphones. And the Civi line of phones is an excellent example of how an experienced and popular manufacturer perfectly combines beauty, technology and an affordable price in its products. And its new representative increases this combination of positive qualities to a level previously unseen in the series.
Vivo T3 5G phone review
Vivo T3 5G - not keeping up with opponents?
The Chinese company Vivo regularly produces dozens of different smartphones a year, but not all models in its range become bestsellers. Thus, the manufacturer has a lot of phones that are either inferior to competitors in terms of technical characteristics, or come out later than potential hits. It is the second situation that arose with the hero of today’s review, from whom Xiaomi and Realme have already managed to take an impressive percentage of the audience.
