Last week<\/a>, the OnePlus 15R 512GB had a \u00a3100 discount, which made it cheaper than the 256GB version (since that one was at MSRP). Now there\u2019s also an additional \u00a320 discount available at checkout \u2013 it\u2019s not much, but the phone only just launched.<\/p>\n

With the extra discount, the 15R is now \u00a340 cheaper than the Poco F8 Ultra. The Poco still has things going for it like the faster Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset (vs. 8 Gen 5 on the OnePlus). The Poco F8 Ultra also has a better camera setup with a larger 50MP main (1\/1.31\u201d vs. 1\/1.56\u201d), a higher resolution ultra-wide (50MP vs. 8MP) and a 50MP 5x\/115mm periscope (vs. no tele camera at all).<\/p>\n

On the flip side, OnePlus 15R\u2019s larger 7,400mAh battery (vs. 6,550mAh) gives it more endurance (21:49h Active Use Score vs. a respectable 18:52h). The Poco is faster to charge (39 min to full vs. 54 min for the OnePlus) and has 50W wireless charging too. Check out last week\u2019s post for a Poco F8 Pro deal.<\/p>\n

The Poco M8 and M8 Pro both launched in the second week of 2026. The vanilla model pairs a 6.77\u201d OLED display (12-bit, 120Hz) with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 (plus a microSD slot) and a 5,520mAh battery with 45W charging. It\u2019s essentially a Redmi Note 15<\/a> without the 108MP camera \u2013 said Redmi Note 15 costs \u00a3200 on Amazon UK<\/a>. The Poco M8 does come with \u00a330 of Amazon Credit, but we\u2019d still go with the Redmi Note.<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s the Poco M8 Pro. This one is a Redmi Note 15 Pro+ variant<\/a> without the 200MP camera. The 50MP 1\/1.55\u201d sensor is better than what\u2019s inside the vanilla M8 (a 50MP 1\/2.88\u201d sensor), but it\u2019s not much either way. The M8 Pro has better water resistance than the M8 (IP68 vs. IP65), a better Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset (vs. 6 Gen 3), and a larger 6,500mAh battery with 100W charging (vs. 5,520mAh 45W). Do have a serious look at the Redmi Note 15 Pro+, though, it\u2019s only \u00a350 more on Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Pixel 10, 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL are on sale with an additional \u00a3100 discount that applies at checkout. The Pixel 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL are powered by the Tensor G5 and have the same camera setup \u2013 50MP main (1\/1.31\u201d), 48MP 5x\/113mm periscope and 48MP ultra-wide. However, the XL has a bigger display (6.8\u201d vs. 6.3\u201d) and battery (5,200mAh vs. 4,870mAh) with faster charging (45W\/25W wired\/wireless vs. 30W\/15W).<\/p>\n

The Pixel 10 is the same size as the 10 Pro with a 6.3\u201d display (though it\u2019s a lower resolution 1080p+ non-LTPO panel) and uses the same Tensor G5 chipset. The battery is a tad bigger at 4,970mAh and has the same 30W\/15W charging support. For the first year, it has a telephoto camera, a 10.8MP 5x\/112mm module. However, the main was downgraded to a small 48MP 1\/2\u201d sensor and the ultra-wide has a lower resolution 13MP sensor. Check out our versus article<\/a> for a more detailed look.<\/p>\n

Even with the extra \u00a3100 discount at checkout, the Pixel 10 is \u00a3200 more expensive than the Pixel 9. The older model is paired with a free 45W charger. While its Tensor G4 is slower than the G5, neither is a great chipset. Also, the 2024 model has a proper 50MP 1\/1.31\u201d main camera and a 48MP ultra-wide. There\u2019s no dedicated telephoto lens, however. While its battery is smaller by 270mAh, the older Pixel 9 actually lasts longer \u2013 13:05h Active Use Score vs. 12:08h.<\/p>\n
