Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Review: A true flagship

Samsung’s flagship smartphone is always a contender for the best Android smartphone on the market. The S23 Ultra was released earlier this month and builds upon the solid foundations of the S22 while adding some additional flair of its own. The smartphone comes with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC that has been customised for Samsung. The 6.8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X HDR 10+ display on the S23 Ultra is still one of the best displays you can get on any phone right now. Other than that, the S23 Ultra features a rear camera array comprising a 200MP primary lens, a 10MP telephoto + 10MP periscope telephoto lens, and a 12MP ultrawide lens.

Vivo V25 Pro

Price: Rs 35,999

Vivo V25 Pro Review: A good camera-centric smartphone

Vivo V25 Pro was one of the more exciting releases last year, all because of its attractive pricing and the much-talked-about colour changing back. Powering the smartphone is the MediaTek 1200 SoC. The camera unit consists of a 64MP primary sensor, 8MP ultrawide, and 2MP macro lens. While a telephoto lens instead of the macro sensor would have been ideal, the 64MP primary shooter produces some stellar results. Read more about it in our review of the Vivo V25 Pro here.
