It has a titanium frame to keep it tough despite its slender build. The phone has the powerful Apple A19 Pro chipset and a 6.5\u201d LTPO display. What it sacrifices is most of its camera hardware \u2013 there\u2019s only a 48MP (1\/1.56\u201d) unit on the back \u2013 and its battery capacity. The small 3,149mAh battery posted an average endurance with an Active Use Score of 12:44h.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/apple_iphone_17_air-13502.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#13;<br \/>\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1757763427_724_apple-iphone-air.jpg\" alt=\"Apple iPhone Air\" width=\"75\" height=\"100\" class=\"left mr-20 ml-10\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n        <\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Google Pixel 10 is a smaller phone with a 6.3\u201d screen. Well, it\u2019s smaller in terms of height and width, it\u2019s actually thicker (8.6mm) and heavier (204g). This gives it a bigger battery, 4,970mAh. However, due to the poor efficiency of its Tensor G5 chipset, it only achieved an Active Use Score of 12:08h.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/google_pixel_10_5g-13979.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#13;<br \/>\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/google-pixel-10-.jpg\" alt=\"Google Pixel 10\" width=\"75\" height=\"100\" class=\"left mr-20 ml-10\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n        <\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you want something cheaper, the Pixel 10a is another 6.3\u201d option from Google. This one uses the older Tensor G4 chipset. This might be a blessing in disguise since the slightly bigger 5,100mAh battery lasts noticeably longer with a 15:13h Active Use Score. Note that the 10a loses Pixel 10\u2019s 10.8MP 5x\/112mm periscope camera.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/google_pixel_10a_5g-14474.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#13;<br \/>\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/google-pixel-10a.jpg\" alt=\"Google Pixel 10a\" width=\"75\" height=\"100\" class=\"left mr-20 ml-10\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n        <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Last week, the Nothing Phone (4b) was on pre-order, now the phone is available. But is it worth it? It\u2019s \u00a380 cheaper than the base 8\/128GB version of the Nothing Phone (4a), which you can find on <a href=\"https:\/\/nothing.tech\/products\/phone-4a?Colour=White&amp;Capacity=8%2B128GB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">nothing.tech<\/a>. The (4a) has the better chipset (Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 vs. 6 Gen 4), better storage (UFS 3.1 vs. UFS 2.2), better cameras (including a 50MP 3.5x\/80mm periscope) and a comparable battery (5,080mAh vs. 5,200mAh).<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/nothing_phone_(4b)_5g-14781.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#13;<br \/>\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/nothing-phone-4b.jpg\" alt=\"Nothing Phone (4b)\" width=\"75\" height=\"100\" class=\"left mr-20 ml-10\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n        <\/a><\/p>\n<p>It costs double, so it\u2019s no surprise that the Nothing Phone (3) is better than the (4b). This price is with a solid \u00a3300 discount, by the way. Nothing\u2019s one and only flagship uses the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and a 5,150mAh Si\/C battery with 65W wired and 15W wireless charging. It has a large 1\/1.3\u201d 50MP sensor in its main camera, a 50MP 3x periscope and a 50MP 114\u00b0 ultra-wide.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/nothing_phone_(3)_5g-13969.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#13;<br \/>\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/nothing-phone-3-new.jpg\" alt=\"Nothing Phone (3)\" width=\"75\" height=\"100\" class=\"left mr-20 ml-10\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n        <\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Poco F8 Pro is cheaper while also offering a faster Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. It has a similar screen, a 6.59\u201d 12-bit OLED, and a bigger 6,210mAh battery (100W wired-only charging). It is equipped with a 50MP main camera (1\/1.55\u201d sensor), a 50MP 2.5x\/60mm telephoto and an 8MP 120\u00b0 ultra-wide.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/xiaomi_poco_f8_pro_5g-14303.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#13;<br \/>\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/xiaomi-poco-f8-pro.jpg\" alt=\"Poco F8 Pro\" width=\"75\" height=\"100\" class=\"left mr-20 ml-10\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n        <\/a><\/p>\n<p>For \u00a330 more than the Nothing, the Poco F8 Ultra brings the current best Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. It pairs it with a large 6.9\u201d 12-bit OLED display and a fast 6,500mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. Poco put extra effort into the camera department too with a 50MP main (1\/1.31\u201d), 50MP 5x\/115mm periscope and a 50MP ultra-wide.

It uses the Dimensity 8500 Ultra chipset and a 6,500mAh battery (100W wired-only charging). The phone has a 6.59\u201d 12-bit OLED display and a simple-but-capable 50+8MP camera.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/xiaomi_poco_x8_pro_5g-14506.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#13;<br \/>\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/xiaomi-poco-x8-pro.jpg\" alt=\"Poco X8 Pro\" width=\"75\" height=\"100\" class=\"left mr-20 ml-10\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n        <\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Poco X8 Pro Max ups the ante with a near flagship Dimensity 9500s chipset and an 8,500mAh Si\/C battery (100W wired-only charging).
