Manufacturers continue to release new smartphones and expand their model line. Should we expect a breakthrough in the new season? It’s unlikely, but we will definitely see interesting solutions, for example, Motorola RAZR (2019) with a flexible screen (smartphone, not phone). It’s a pity, at the time of writing these lines the device is not yet sold in the Russian Federation. But we have prepared something else for you, namely, the most interesting new items of the new season that are already on sale (the information on the page will be updated periodically).
Samsung Galaxy A51 64GB
Samsung Galaxy A50 has become a real hit - according to data from open sources, it is among the top three best-selling smartphones of 2021 in Russia. And this is its update.
What's new? The form factor has not changed, but the most noticeable difference on the front of the case is the front camera built into the screen. Thanks to this, with a screen diagonal of 6.5 inches, the width of the case has even decreased slightly (previously a 6.4-inch display was used).
The main camera has been updated, which now consists of 4 modules (main, ultra-wide-angle, depth sensor and macro lens), and, of course, takes better photos. Also worth noting is the new Exynos 9611 chip.
But the on-screen fingerprint sensor and a powerful 4000 mAh battery were there before.
- Screen diagonal: 6.5 inches
- Screen resolution: 2400×1080
- Weight: 172 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Exynos 9611
- Memory capacity: 64 GB
- RAM capacity: 4 GB
- Battery capacity: 4000 mAh
- Rear camera: four modules 48/12/5/5 MP
- Front camera: 32 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Nokia C1 Plus
Our top budget device starts. Let's start with the appearance of the new phone, which takes us back to the distant 2013, when companies were not trying to make huge devices with limitless screens. It is noteworthy that the model itself was presented on December 15, 2021, and therefore its appearance is only an attempt to determine the final price.
The screen diagonal is 5.45 inches, and the display uses IPS with a pixel density of 295 ppi . For modern smartphones this is not enough, but for old state employees, on the contrary, it is a lot. The working surface makes up only 72% of the total screen area. Fans of edge-to-edge screens will be disappointed by the camera, which is located separately and not on top of the display.
The device has only one front and one main camera. Each is 5 MP. You will be surprised, but even in front there is a flash for the front camera. Performance leaves much to be desired, because under the hood is hidden a Unisoc SC9832E processor coupled with 1 GB of RAM. Built-in memory 16 gigabytes. A little skimpy, but cheap.
According to the classics of state employees, outdated microUSB is used instead of type-c. The battery capacity is 2500 mAh, which is enough for several days of use. To summarize, this option will be an excellent “dialer” with simple controls and support for instant messengers, and therefore suitable for retirees who eschew current technologies.
Advantages:
- weight – 146 grams;
- flash front and back;
- small size.
Flaws:
- performance;
Price: 5000 rubles.
Apple iPhone SE (2020) 64GB
Many people were waiting for this smartphone - and they did. Meet the new generation iPhone SE.
Surely some users will ask what's new here, because before us is the iPhone 8. Indeed, the SE borrowed the body from the iPhone 8, so in appearance it is no different - even the weight has not changed. All the changes are inside: the top-end Apple A13 Bionic processor, improved cameras, 3 GB of RAM.
Fast and wireless charging, NFC, Touch ID were present before.
- Screen diagonal: 4.7 inches
- Screen resolution: 1334×750
- Weight: 148 g
- Number of SIM cards: 1
- Processor: Apple A13 Bionic
- Memory capacity: 64 GB
- RAM capacity: 3 GB
- Battery capacity: 1700 mAh
- Rear camera: 12 MP
- Front camera: 7 MP
- Memory card support: no
Xiaomi Mi 10 8/128GB
The new generation flagship from Xiaomi has become not only better, but also seriously more expensive.
In general, this is understandable: a new chic matrix with a refresh rate of 90 Hz and a high level of brightness, the most powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor, support for fast and wireless charging, fast memory, an excellent camera with a main module that can shoot in 108 MP resolution.
But even this model does not have water protection and, for example, autofocus in the ultra-wide-angle camera module. But there are full-fledged stereo speakers.
- Screen diagonal: 6.67 inches
- Screen resolution: 2340×1080
- Weight: 208 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 865
- Memory capacity: 128 GB
- RAM capacity: 8 GB
- Battery capacity: 4780 mAh
- Rear camera: four modules 108/13/2/2 MP
- Front camera: 20 MP
- Memory card support: no
Nokia 1.3
Another budget model, but with more impressive performance and, accordingly, an increased price. The design of the new product remains primitive and gray, even the rear camera has not moved. But the front lens now appears as a drop on the screen, rather than occupying a separate line on top.
The screen diagonal is 5.71 inches, and the already familiar IPS is used as a display. The device is powered by a quad-core Qualcomm QM215 processor and 1 GB of RAM. The built-in memory is only 16 GB, but given the low performance, this is enough, because the memory cannot be cluttered with games. Is it worth overpaying 1000 rubles for an enlarged screen? Experience says it's worth it.
Advantages:
- screen;
- drop-shaped chamber;
- autonomy – 3000 mAh, 7 hours.
Flaws:
Price: 6000 rubles.
Huawei P40 Pro
Fresh flagship from Huawei. As some probably already know, some of the company’s models are released without support for Google services, and the P40 Pro is no exception.
But the smartphone itself is magnificent: beautiful appearance, very pleasant body colors, a gorgeous camera (again one of the best in the world!) with 4 modules (main, wide, telephoto and 3D Depth), one of the best matrices with a diagonal of 6, 58 inches, heavy-duty HiSilicon Kirin 990 5G chipset, support fast and wireless charging, IP68 water protection.
It's a pity there are no stereo speakers.
- Screen diagonal: 6.58 inches
- Screen resolution: 2640×1200

- Front camera: 32 MP
- Memory card support: yes
OnePlus 8 Pro 8/128GB
OnePlus presented two versions of its flagship: 8 and 8 Pro. The second one is much more interesting. With what?
So, the smartphone finally received protection from water (IP68) and wireless charging with a power of as much as 30 W. The display will delight you with a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The rear camera received 4 modules: main, wide-angle, “telephoto” and a “color filter” sensor (that’s what the company calls it). This version uses fast LPDDR5 memory, three microphones and stereo speakers.
The design of the case has changed little.
- Screen diagonal: 6.578 inches
- Screen resolution: 3168×1440
- Weight: 199 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 865
- Memory capacity: 128 GB

- Battery capacity: 4510 mAh
- Rear camera: four modules 48/48/8/5 MP
- Front camera: 16 MP
- Memory card support: no
Sony Xperia 1
You might have heard about the announcement of the interesting flagship Xperia 1 back in February. Alas, the device reached real sales only in June, and came to Russia even later. In addition, let's say first, the price of the gadget is not for the faint of heart.
Nevertheless, technically the device is interesting. And for those who already owned previous Sony flagships, the Xperia 1 may seem like a worthy upgrade. At the time of release, the smartphone has at least three unique features:
- This is the first flagship with an aspect ratio of 21:9, thanks to which, with a 6.5'' display diagonal, the width of the gadget is only 72 mm;
- The first gadget with a 4K AMOLED display. We have never seen such high resolution in AMOLED screens for smartphones before. Pixel density – 643 PPI. This is more than any flagship this year;
- The Xperia 1 is also the first smartphone to feature Eye Autofocus.
It was Sony that was the first to start the fashion for super-elongated displays in new products in 2021, which Motorola has already supported in a number of its devices
Of course, the Xperia 1 also has key features from previous Sony flagships. This includes IP68 water protection, Stamina mode for energy saving, 960 FPS video shooting in Full HD, 3D model builder and Dynamic Vibration System for advanced tactile response.
There is also something in which, with the release of the Xperia 1, Sony has finally caught up with its competitors. For example, the Japanese flagship now has not one, but three cameras: the company has added a telephoto module to the main one, as well as an ultra-wide-angle lens (a record 130 degrees). The main module, in turn, finally received optical stabilization, a wide aperture and a pixel size of 1.4 microns.
Huawei Y6s 3/64GB
Nothing unusual - just a budget device from Huawei.
The buyer receives a 6.09-inch display, a MediaTek Helio P35 (MT6765) chip, 3 GB of RAM and 64 GB of ROM, two cameras, and a 3020 mAh battery.
On the back of the case you can find a fingerprint scanner.
- Screen diagonal: 6.09 inches
- Screen resolution: 1560×720
- Weight: 150 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: MediaTek Helio P35 (MT6765)
- Memory capacity: 64 GB
- RAM capacity: 3 GB
- Battery capacity: 3020 mAh
- Rear camera: 13 MP
- Front camera: 8 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Realme C2
Do prices for modern, even non-flagship smartphones leave you in a slight shock? In this case, pay attention to the Realme C2 model that recently went on sale.
More precisely, Realme C2 was presented in the spring, but the Realme brand itself only reached Russia in the summer. The C2 model is the most affordable thing in their still modest range. However, the brand has impressive ambitions, especially since the powerful Chinese giant BBK is behind it.
Realme C2 is an unexpectedly strong opponent of Xiaomi in the budget segment of Android devices
Realme is fully aimed at tough competition with Xiaomi Redmi, which we wrote about in detail in a separate article. Realme C2 is pitted against Redmi 7A. The latter is by far the most affordable current Xiaomi smartphone with a full version of Android (Xiaomi has an even cheaper Redmi Go, but it runs on a stripped-down Android Go).
At approximately the same price, Realme C2 surpasses Redmi 7A with a larger display (6.1'' versus 5.5'') and design. While the 7A uses conventional bezels at the bottom and top, the C2 features minimal bezels and a waterdrop notch.
Another difference: in some stores, at a similar price in a configuration with 32 GB of flash memory, Realme C2 offers 3 GB of RAM instead of 2 from its main competitor
This is still rare in the most budget smartphones. In addition, Realme C2 is equipped with an auxiliary camera, which the Xiaomi counterpart does not have. In the C2 it acts as a depth sensor and allows you to create a high-quality bokeh (blur) effect in pictures.
Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra
In the new S20 line from Samsung, the most interesting version is the S20 Ultra - both literally and figuratively.
The smartphone has a lot of features, for example, it has a very large 6.9-inch display, an excellent main camera, which consists of 4 modules (there is support for 8K video recording at 24 frames per second, as well as the ability to record video on three camera modules simultaneously ), and the main one has a resolution of 108 MP, the display sampling frequency is 120 Hz, but only with Full HD resolution.
We note a powerful 5000 mAh battery and an extremely powerful platform based on the Samsung Exynos 990 chipset and 12 RAM.
- Screen diagonal: 6.9 inches
- Screen resolution: 3200×1440
- Weight: 220 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Samsung Exynos 990
- Memory capacity: 128 GB
- RAM capacity: 12 GB
- Battery capacity: 5000 mAh
- Rear camera: four modules 108/48/12 MP + DepthVision
- Front camera: 40 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip
Flip smartphone from Samsung. Surprised? Us too, but foldable screens are the future.
When folded, the Galaxy Z Flip is the size of a powder compact, and when unfolded it is a smartphone with a large 6.7-inch display. This, by the way, is a flagship solution based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus processor and 8 GB of RAM. True, the battery capacity is not too large - 3300 mAh. Even wireless charging is announced. There is an additional small display on the outside of the case.
A very unusual device for those who appreciate the latest technology. And for those who have the means, because the Galaxy Z Flip is one of the most expensive smartphones on the market (current at the time of writing).
- Screen diagonal: 6.7 inches
- Screen resolution: 2636×1080
- Weight: 183 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus
- Memory capacity: 256 GB
- RAM capacity: 8 GB
- Battery capacity: 3300 mAh
- Rear camera: dual 12/12 MP
- Front camera: 10 MP
- Memory card support: no
OnePlus 7 Pro
This smartphone is a real monster in terms of features and characteristics. Introduced back in the first half of 2021, it still looks head and shoulders above most of its competitors. Among the key features we note the following:
- The frameless screen with a pop-up front camera is also complemented by the fact that the display is curved onto the side edges;
- Second point
- The only flagship at the moment (with the exception of gaming smartphones) with a display refresh rate of 90 Hz instead of the standard 60;
OnePlus 7 Pro is perhaps the main discovery in the smartphone market for the entire first half of 2019
- The display itself is one of the highest quality AMOLED screens on the market. Supplied by Samsung. Like the S10 screen, it supports HDR10+. DisplayMate praised the OnePlus 7 Pro display on almost all points, including calibration accuracy;
- The display diagonal is 6.67'', which is larger than all competitors' flagships. At the same time, the width of the device, due to its elongation and framelessness, did not exceed a reasonable 76 mm;
- Along with the basic version, OnePlus 7 is the first smartphone with ultra-fast UFS 3.0 memory.
There are also features in which the OnePlus 7 Pro is not unique, but still quite remarkable: this is optical stabilization for the main camera module (48 MP), and OIS is also provided for the telephoto lens. There are stereo speakers, 30-watt fast charging, a fingerprint scanner integrated into the display, as well as 12 GB of RAM in older versions.
The flagship is powered by Snapdragon 855. Insiders predict the release of OnePlus 7T Pro in the fall. At a minimum, it should receive a slightly enhanced Snapdragon 855 Plus and wireless charging function, which, alas, was absent in the original gadget.
A quick look at the highlights of the OnePlus 7 Pro
Xiaomi Mi Note 10 6/128GB
Far from being a flagship from Xiaomi, it managed to impress experts and users with its main camera with 5 modules, the main one of which is capable of shooting in 108 MP resolution! Race for pixels? Not if you want to fit as much detail into the frame as possible (the difference is noticeable when you enlarge the photo). And in general, the camera turned out to be top-end, on par with the best camera phones on the planet. There is a version of Mi Note 10 Pro that takes pictures even a little better.
We also note a very reasonable price for a camera phone, a decent 6.47-inch display, a powerful battery with a capacity of as much as 5260 mAh, decent performance due to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G processor and 6 GB of RAM.
- Screen diagonal: 6.47 inches
- Screen resolution: 2340×1080
- Weight: 208 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G
- Memory capacity: 128 GB
- RAM capacity: 6 GB
- Battery capacity: 5260 mAh
- Rear camera: 5 modules 108/12/20/5/2 MP
- Front camera: 32 MP
- Memory card support: no
Xiaomi Mi 12
For many years now, it has been at the forefront of technical progress in the field of cameras for smartphones and, according to rumors, Xiaomi Mi 12 will be no exception. The new product may receive a main camera with a stunning number of 192 or even 200 MP.
Most likely, this unverified data is close to reality: Samsung (whose sensors Xiaomi usually uses in its phones) recently introduced smartphone cameras with the same resolution to the public. In addition to the impressive resolution, the camera will use 16 pixels in 1 technology, which promises to produce excellent, colorful, super-detailed images.
As for power, here too the Xiaomi Mi 12 promises to pack a punch – only the latest generation processor, most likely the Snapdragon 895, made using a 4nm process technology. Moreover, judging by the latest unofficial data, the speed of development of the latter has accelerated significantly - engineers are even ahead of schedule.
If we add to these rumors the very official statement of Chen Jin, general manager of Lenovo's mobile phone division in China, that a Lenovo (or Motorola) flagship phone with the same supposed Qualcomm Snapdragon 895 processor will be released before the new year 2022... It seems that already in In December, Xiaomi will delight us with a new luxurious camera phone with fast charging at 200 W.
Honor 20s 6/128GB
A relatively inexpensive new product from Honor.
Suspiciously familiar building? Indeed, before you could see it in the Huawei P30 Lite model, but here it has slightly different colors, and the white color for the P30 Lite is not available at all.
Other differences? There are not many of them, but they are interesting. For example, the amount of RAM is 6 GB versus 4 GB, and although the main camera consists of three modules, the main one is different, more expensive. And it removes the device better than its brother.
- Screen diagonal: 6.15 inches
- Screen resolution: 2312×1080
- Weight: 159 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: HiSilicon Kirin 710
- Memory capacity: 128 GB
- RAM capacity: 6 GB
- Battery capacity: 3340 mAh
- Rear camera: triple 48/8/2 MP
- Front camera: 24 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Nokia 8.3 5G
The name of the model gave away its main feature. Indeed, the device supports 5G communication, although this plus is difficult to apply in the CIS. The diagonal of the device is 6.81 inches, and the same IPS is used as a display. The company completely refuses to try other displays. But the pixel density has increased to 386 ppi.
In general, the device can be positioned as a gaming flagship, because it is equipped with an eight-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 765 5G processor coupled with 8 GB and 128 GB of ROM. The only disappointment is the price of this technological masterpiece.
Advantages:
- high performance;
- 5G support;
- clear display.
Flaws:
- price;
- weight – 220 grams.
Price: 38,000 rubles.
Huawei Mate 30 Pro
Top top from Huawei. At the time of writing, it is not officially supplied to the Russian market (no decision has been made yet), which is a pity, because the device is extremely interesting.
For example, this is the best camera phone in the world according to the DXOMARK rating - thanks to the main module of 4 sensors, including a separate one for video shooting (its resolution, like the main sensor, is 40 MP). Other features include a touch-sensitive sound control panel and the latest and extremely powerful HiSilicon Kirin 990 chipset.
Minuses? The device does not have Google services on board due to a well-known situation. But, as practice shows, you can use the Mate 30 Pro without them. But whether the user is ready for this is another question.
- Screen diagonal: 6.53 inches
- Screen resolution: 2400×1176
- Weight: 298 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: HiSilicon Kirin 990
- Memory capacity: 256 GB
- RAM capacity: 8 GB
- Battery capacity: 4500 mAh
- Rear camera: 4 modules
- Front camera: 32 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Honor 9X
Another major Chinese company, Huawei, threw in the Honor 9X to compete with the Mi 9T. Sales have already started, the new product should appear in Russia very soon. The device can tempt the buyer with a frameless design similar to the Mi 9T with a pop-up front camera, but at the same time it also has a significantly more affordable price.
Compared to the Mi 9T, some of the most expensive components are simplified here. For example, instead of an AMOLED screen, a traditional IPS panel is used. The in-screen fingerprint scanner has been replaced with a side one. The camera block here is also noticeably simpler. Honor 9X has a main module (48 MP) and a complementary depth sensor (2 MPx). There is no telephoto or ultra-wide-angle lens like the Mi 9T.
Honor 9X is Huawei's answer to the Xiaomi Mi 9T, but with a more affordable price tag
However, in some respects, Honor 9X, despite its lower price, still outperforms its competitor from Xiaomi:
- The screen in Honor 9X is larger: 6.59'' instead of 6.39'';
- There is support for microSD memory cards;
- The new powerful Kirin 810 processor is ahead of the Snapdragon 730 in many tests.
As a result, the choice turns out to be very interesting. Honor 9X, by the way, also has an “older brother” – the 9X Pro model. However, it differs only in configurations with large amounts of RAM and permanent memory, as well as a third camera module. It is an ultra-wide-angle lens with an 8-megapixel sensor.
iPhone 11 Pro Max 512GB
There is still a lull in the Apple line. Yes, there are rumors about the SE 2 and the iPhone 9 (an updated version of the iPhone 8), but at the time of writing these lines we are only talking about rumors.
The most interesting models of the company include the 11 Pro Max in the version with 512 GB of ROM. Another important feature is the very cool main camera, which makes the device a real camera phone. Apple is also relying on night mode, when the device takes several photos and “stitches” them into one image. The mode works great, although it has been present on devices from the same Chinese manufacturers for a long time.
It should also be noted that Apple’s own A13 Bionic processor is also thanks to which the iPhone sets records in the popular AnTuTu Benchmark rating.
- Screen diagonal: 6.5 inches
- Screen resolution: 2688×1242
- Weight: 226 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2 (nano SIM + eSIM)
- Processor: Apple A13 Bionic
- Memory capacity: 512 GB
- RAM capacity: 4 GB
- Battery capacity: 3500 mAh
- Rear camera: triple 12/12/12 MP
- Front camera: 12 MP
- Memory card support: no
ASUS ROG Phone II ZS660KL 12/512GB
The second generation of gaming smartphones from ASUS. The first one worked very well, so it’s not surprising to see a sequel.
The device has been seriously transformed: the display diagonal has been increased to 6.59 inches, a new Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus chipset has been installed, and the amount of memory in this version is simply huge - 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of ROM. To allow the user to play their favorite games even longer, the battery capacity is now as much as 6000 mAh. There is no wireless charging yet, but fast charging is supported.
Other features include a GameCool II vapor chamber, stereo speakers, and a 120Hz screen refresh rate.
- Screen diagonal: 6.59 inches
- Screen resolution: 2340×1080
- Weight: 240 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus
- Memory capacity: 512 GB
- RAM capacity: 12 GB
- Battery capacity: 6000 mAh
- Rear camera: dual 48/13 MP
- Front camera: 24 MP
- Memory card support: no
Nubia Z20
Unlike all other devices, the appearance of such a new product as the Nubia Z20 in Russia is most likely not worth waiting for officially. Nevertheless, the gadget still has a chance to somehow penetrate our market, and foreign online stores have not yet been canceled.
Nubia Z20 is a smartphone with two screens. If in YotaPhone the second screen was black and white (e-ink), then in Nubia both displays are full-fledged. However, the idea of a second display is also presented in an original way: it shines through the back cover of the device, which creates a very unusual effect. When the display is turned off, you simply cannot see it.
The rear screen of the Nubia Z20 supports Always On Display
Nubia Z20 is the manufacturer’s second smartphone with two displays. The first one last year was the Nubia X. Compared to it, the Z20 took a number of important steps forward. The main screen has become a little larger: 6.42'' instead of 6.26''. Now it is a high-quality AMOLED instead of IPS, and even rounded on the side edges of the device.
The second display has not changed: it is AMOLED with a diagonal of 5.1''. It can be used as the main one, used for photos and selfies (cameras are only on its side). Can be used as a controller in games. Finally, simply working with a smaller display with one hand will be more convenient. The Z20 also has an earpiece on the side.
Even in the Z20, compared to the Nubia X, the Snapdragon 845 was replaced by the Snapdragon 855 Plus. The battery has increased from 3800 mAh to 4000 mAh. Charging power has increased from 18 to 27 watts. The Chinese have especially upgraded the camera unit. Instead of a combination of 16 + 24 MPx, 48 + 8 + 16 are now used. The last two modules are telephoto (x3 optical zoom) and ultra-wide-angle. The main module has not only increased in megapixels, but also received optical stabilization.
In the dark version of the case, the image from the back looks completely magical
Two screens, by the way, are not the only thing in the Z20 in duplicate. So, the device has two fingerprint scanners - one on the left side, the other on the right. There are also two flashes: one is regular, the other is soft for selfies and shooting in the dark.
Vivo V17
Like a number of other brands, including realme, Vivo is part of BBK Electronics, which is ranked among the largest smartphone manufacturers.
Vivo V17 is a smartphone with a distinctive design, an excellent 6.38-inch screen, a good platform based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 processor and as much as 8 GB of RAM, a powerful battery (4500 mAh), and an on-screen fingerprint sensor. There's even a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Users also like the proprietary firmware from Vivo.
- Screen diagonal: 6.38 inches
- Screen resolution: 2340×1080
- Weight: 187 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 665
- Memory capacity: 128 GB
- RAM capacity: 8 GB
- Battery capacity: 4500 mAh
- Rear camera: four modules 48/8/2/2 MP
- Front camera: 32 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Nokia 5.4
It is interesting that the difference between the prices of this and the previous model is insignificant, but there are serious differences in the characteristics. Let's start with the screen. Without changing its traditions, the manufacturer installed IPS with a diagonal of 6.39 inches. The pixel density is only 269 ppi, which is a bit disappointing.
Despite the high resolution of the camera, many users complain about its unoptimized performance. Performance is significantly improved due to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 processor coupled with 6GB of RAM. Otherwise, the device is not much different from the 5.3 model.
Advantages:
- performance;
- autonomy – 4000 mAh;
- screen.
Flaws:
- unoptimized OS;
- blurred image.
Price: 15800 rubles.
Meizu M10 3/32GB
The new smartphone from Meizu, which is primarily impressive in that it lacks proprietary Flyme firmware—it uses the stock version of Android. Note that the Android One program does not include a smartphone.
This is an inexpensive budget device with a nice design, a large 6.5-inch display (IPS), a good triple camera for its price, a platform based on the MediaTek Helio P25 (MT6757T) chipset and 3 GB of RAM. The battery capacity is good - 4000 mAh.
The fingerprint sensor is located on the back of the case.
- Screen diagonal: 6.5 inches
- Screen resolution: 1600×720
- Weight: 184 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: MediaTek Helio P25 (MT6757T)
- Memory capacity: 32 GB
- RAM capacity: 3 GB
- Battery capacity: 4000 mAh
- Rear camera: triple 13/2/2 MP
- Front camera: 8 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Vivo S10
A couple of days ago, the company announced that next week, on July 15, it will tell and show about its next new product, numbered S10.
It is not yet clear exactly how many models will be included in the 10 series, but among them there will absolutely be “regular” and “Pro” - because it was the latter that the company used for posters on its advertising page.
Judging by the images, the new product will receive a triple camera on the rear panel, with the main sensor having a resolution of 108 MP. The design of the young “Chinese” will be flat, with thin metal side frames, and on the front panel there is a cutout for a dual selfie camera.
Alas, besides this, almost nothing can be said about the new series. Rumor has it that the “regular” version will come with Dimensity 1100, a 108MP main sensor, 44W charging, fast UFS 3.1 flash storage, two RAM options (8GB + 3GB virtual or 12GB and 4GB virtual) and will support NFC.
