Midrange

EDITORIAL: Pura 70 Ultra is a China-only camera-phone dream with proven photo (hardware and software) performance. It is considered by many to be the very best camera-phone of the 2024. Processor is a Kirin 9010, with performance on par with (2024) upper-midrange processors, scoring just below Dimensity 8300. Battery endurance is almost a full day. The screen is a solid but MOR: sub-1300nits, 460ppi with no HDR10+. Phone is beautifully crafted (altho 226gr heavy) and feels as premium as any featuring a lovely and grip-friendly fake-leather back. To run Google apps, you will have to get GBox depository and install them from there.

PROs
high-quality build, reliable Kirin 9010 performance, 1-day 5200mAh Li battery endurance with a 100W sub-60min wired charging (80W wireless), IP68 protection, outstanding photo performance from a 1″ 50MP variable f/1.6-4.0 aperture OIS PDAF retractable main + 50MP PDAF telephoto + 40MP AF ultrawide camera and 13MP AF selfie cameras, Huawei’s good desktop replacement feature and bring the very first Pura branded top phone
CONs
very limited software update future and support, battery life that could have been better for a phone this price and size, mediocre video recording quality and the lack of expandable memory (updated Jun 3, 2025)

EDITORIAL: Oppo's midrange Reno phones are known for great battery life and very competent camera setups and Reno 15 is no exception. Oppo decided to save you money by fitting in a huge battery and using a cheaper non-LTPO screen. Cameras cover all basis with a main, telephoto and ultrawide plus an excellent selfie shooter. The last year's SD 7 Gen 4 processor will do the job and don't expect a SD memory expansion (Oppo removed that feature from Reno line last year) but otherwise this is a top-midrange phone if price is right.

PROs
very solid aluminium and glass build, good SnapDragon 7 Gen 4 with UFS 3.1 performance, excellent >42hr endurance from a 6500mAh battery with sub-60min 80W charging, sub-1300nits 460ppi AMOLED screen with HDR10+, IP69 protection, very reliable 50MP 26mm main + 50MP 80mm telephoto (both with OIS PDAF) + 8MP 15mm AF ultrawide, excellent 50MP 18mm AF selfie, 5 years of OS updates, generous retail package that usually includes a charger and a case
CONs
flat side frame is not as comfortable to use, no wireless charging, no SD memory expansion, no desktop replacement functionality, slow USB-C 2.0 port (tho it offers OTG)
