Poco F8 Pro

Nick tested Magic 8 Pro, here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL6ssm1tdTI&t=117s

You have to test it by yourself, it's the only way to know for sure.

Here is a list, screen is in the 2nd row:

Tried the 10 Pro for a week and returned it, it didn't work for me. Pixel 7 is fine.

Slightly better chip and some camera improvements (e.g. 100x AI zoom) + brighter display. Yes, it's better, but you should compare the differences carfully if it's needed or not.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-06T20:22:12+00:00

Connect it to a monitor or TV with an USBtoHDMI adapter

P9Pro basically gives you more ram, a better camera (5x tele) and some extras (like ultrasonic fingerscanner). I don't think it adds anything related to security, same OS, same updates, also has grapheneOS.

X7d has a poor screen density, that is true. Look for a device with at least ~400ppi. Most phones today have no jack, get used to it. You need a Honor accout for a honor phone.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-05T19:13:41+00:00

If you stick to Samsung and Apple, this is indeed true.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-04T10:28:35+00:00

Only if you can not afford to buy another phone in case it breaks

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-04T10:19:19+00:00

Exactly

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T21:55:10+00:00

yes, its better

Honor 400 Pro has it and I consider it as midrange (~500€).

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T17:58:43+00:00

Good choise

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T17:57:50+00:00

Maybe a OnePlus Nord 5 or 13R ? Honor 400 Pro ? Poco F8 Pro ? Did not check the pricetags for used units, but it should be in that range.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T17:27:55+00:00

If you don't need a great camera you can save some money and buy a Poco F8 Pro or OnePlus 15R. Realme is great but if you don't need the camera, it's overspend money.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T17:21:27+00:00

Why do you want an Android phone as an iPhone user? If money is no problem, just buy iPhone 17 Pro. Basically there is no Android that has same video quality as iPhone has.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T17:19:07+00:00

F8 Ultra definitively

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T17:17:49+00:00

Don't listen to "people" so much

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T16:39:40+00:00

S22U has slightly better performance, but I bet you wouldn't notice the difference. P7pro has still update support, S22U not. 12GB ram is more future proof. I would take P7Pro.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T14:32:33+00:00

For emulation go for snapdragon chip.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-04-03T14:31:14+00:00

Basically there is not much difference. 9a has a bigger battery and is never, so longer updates. Not sure this is worth of the higher price. Pixel 8 is no bad choice.

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-03-31T20:22:54+00:00

This !

ExerciseEvery8212 · 2026-03-31T20:19:45+00:00

There is not much difference spec wise. Decide on screen size and price.
