Oppo K14 Plus Review featured image showcase

Oppo K14 Plus looks like a gallery piece, but it’s built like an absolute tank. It brings a smooth AMOLED panel, polished software, a good camera, IP69K water resistance, and a battery that keeps going. The performance is enough to get by, but gamers might be disappointed. But it's an unshakeable midrange phone that proves its prowess in an unstable smartphone market.

Poco X8 isn't a spec-sheet hero but a beacon of hope for mid-range buyers. The phone impresses with its sharp and vivid screen, durable build quality and a battery life that won't make you look for a charger constantly. It does have some obvious compromises like the bloated HyperOS and limited 1080p video recording. Yet, it comes out a winner in its segment where good options have dried up over the past few months.

The Nothing Phone (3a) Lite is quite the dependable budget phone with its smooth software, bright AMOLED display and reliable battery backup. It handles pretty much everything, from regular multitasking to casual gaming, though stutters appear under heavier loads. The cameras are also not quite there and could certainly use some fine-tuning. While it's a solid daily driver, the cheaper CMF Phone 2 Pro offers a similar overall experience, leaving the (3a) Lite hard to justify.

OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite design from the back side against a teal background

The OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite is a good phone that got dealt a bad hand. It covers the basics well, with a smooth display, long battery life, and software that only OnePlus could deliver. The Nord CE 6 Lite could have been fair value for most if not for the recent price hike due to the ongoing hardware crisis. Currently, despite being a decent phone, it is a tough sell that even the most hardcore OnePlus fans would have to think twice about.
