    Expert ReviewsThe outlet's top rating, counted as 95 · Hands-on review · 2025

    Exceptional value, pairing a bright display, good battery life and a new 5x telephoto, held back mainly by irritating software and weaker gaming than last year.

    Both phones are praised as fantastic mid-range-priced flagships with top performance, fast charging, lovely screens and strong cameras, with size and selfie quality as the minor drawbacks.
