About a month ago, the OnePlus 13 was selling for €1,050 if you wanted the 16/512GB variant. Now that model is €100 cheaper (but the base 12/256GB model stays at its old price of €900).
The vivo X200 challenges the OnePlus – triple 50MP camera vs. triple 50MP camera, Zeiss vs. Hasselblad. This one is a bit smaller (just a bit) with a 6.67” non-LTPO display, compared to the 6.82” LTPO panel on the OnePlus (1260p+ vs. 1440p+ resolution). The chipset is another difference – Dimensity 9400 vs. Snapdragon 8 Elite. The battery on the vivo is almost as big (5,800mAh vs. 6,000mAh), but it only supports wired charging (90W vs. 100W wired and 50W wireless on the OnePlus).
We’re starting to see the first Google Pixel 9a deals. The base 8/128GB version can be had with a small discount and a free pair of Pixel Buds A-series. A 256GB variant is available too, but with no discount at the moment.
The Realme GT 6 offers Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 power for a mid-€300 price. This variant has only 8GB of RAM, though and getting 4GB more costs €60. Still, we’re looking at a 6.78” 120Hz LTPO display (10-bit, Dolby Vision, 1264p+) and a 5,500mAh battery with 120W wired-only charging. The cameras include a 50MP main (1/1.4”, OIS), 50MP 2x (47mm) telephoto and an 8MP ultra-wide. This phone came with Android 14 out of the box and will receive a total of 3 OS updates.
The Poco F7 Pro costs €90 more for the comparable 12/256GB model. This one has the full-fat Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. Its display is smaller and sharper (6.67” 1440p+) with more colors (12-bit, Dolby Vision), but it is not an LTPO panel and its peak brightness is lower (3,200 nits vs. 6,000 nits). The battery is bigger, though, at 6,000mAh (90W wired-only charging). The Poco has better water resistance too (IP68 vs. IP65). This phone is lacking in the camera department a bit with a 50MP main (1/1.55”, OIS) and an 8MP ultra-wide, no telephoto.
The Poco X7 Pro (12/256GB) is €70 cheaper than the equivalent Realme GT 6, however, its Dimensity 8400 Ultra beats the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 in the Realme (but not the 8 Gen 3 in the F7 Pro). The X7 Pro has a similar display (note: 1220p+ resolution) and battery, but the camera is even more basic with a smaller 1/1.95” sensor in the main.
A reminder from last week, the CMF Phone 2 Pro is now available – well, officially it launches on Monday, but shipping is going to take a couple of days either way. Make sure to compare it with the Redmi. It has a 50MP main camera (1/1.57”) without OIS, but it doesn’t rely on it for zooming – it has a 50MP 2x (50mm) module for that. Plus an 8MP ultra-wide. The Dimensity 7300 Pro chipset is a bit slower than the Snapdragon and the 6.77” 10-bit 120Hz OLED display is a bit larger, but down on resolution and HDR features.
The original CMF Phone 1 is still around, by the way. It has essentially the same chipset as the Pro, but it misses out on the tele camera – it doesn’t even have an ultra-wide. Also, the 6.67” display is smaller, lacks HDR and its peak brightness is lower (2,000 nits vs. 3,000 nits).
The Realme 14 Pro+ is a solid €150 off, but that still makes it €130 more expensive than the CMF Phone 2 Pro. Its Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 is a bit faster and its 6.83” display is a bit sharper (1272p+ vs. 1080p+ resolution). It has high-end water resistance with an IP69 rating compared to just IP54 on the CMF. And it has a 50+50+8MP camera setup on the back, except its main has OIS and its telephoto has a longer 73mm 3x lens (vs. 50mm 2x), which should make it more useful. The battery is larger and faster to charge too with 6,000mAh capacity and 80W wired-charging.
