cmf video quality is quite good not oversharpen like other budget phone

Why is Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 added here? This is not a fair comparison because its priced way lower than the other two devices. Could've been fair if it was the Redmi Note 13 Pro 4G or 5G that was in the comparison.

17:20 The refresh rate on the Galaxy A25 is fixed, meaning if you select 120Hz in settings, where the app supports it, it will always run at 120Hz.

17:27 The A25 just uses tempered glass.

18:48 19:26 20:38 The phones also support MicroSD card expansion.

19:22 The fingerprint sensor is also housed here.

20:04 Bear in mind that if you want a different colour out of the box, you have to get the black option and replace it yourself.

The CMF also has no stereo speakers or NFC.

Considering the Xiaomi Note 13 cost 2x less than the competitors here, it delivers very great.

I'm surprised no one's complaining about 2x zoom on the CMF phone. I guess that's why they made that decision...

[RomeoRomero-cj]

You compare the 2× price to 9k price ? my god!

[oluwaseunemenike]

You should be comparing Redmi Note 13 with Galaxy A15

[desishortsk]

It's not pair comparison .. Xiaomi is available at 13-15k in India ... And other two smartphone are 20-23k ...

[Küstenkindz]

I always find NC that cannot be switched off very annoying when recording videos. This makes the sound very muffled and narrowed. That's why I liked the Redmi Note 13 much better than its competitors when recording videos.

By the way, the Redmi costs a good 1/3 less than the other two smartphones.

You guys should review more camera comparisons on budget and midrange phones 👌

[rudfil]

Do the Benchmark scores single and multi core mean the higher numbers mean the faster the phone is ?

[gadunboxing]

i think a25 and note 13 geek-bench score are swapped

[koonxza]

Its impressive how xiaomi redmi note 13 can compete with these two phones while being half of their price

[perseus]

I don't know about what phone to pick up but I absolutely love the enthusiasm of this lady 😁

[pixelgaming]

You mention Redmi 13 throughout the video, not Redmi Note 13. Normally I wouldn't be too critical of this but Xiaomi has another phone called the Redmi 13, which might cause confusion.

Cmf was never meant To be the camera phone. It excels far better than the others around the budget in terms of performance. Best for me.
I need performance way more than flashy nice photos on my Instagram for others to see.

[im_Dafox]

Personal priority would be photography/music, and I was considering note 13pro. But read a lot of comments saying that these had a huge delay and camera problems with HyperOS. Did you have any while recording this video ? Thanks :]

[brianm]

So is it oversharpened or not sharp enough

[bleauxshade]

Xiaomi for this. The price range makes Redmi Note 13 pro the best contender. RN13 is way cheaper than those 2 devices.

[PolyBex]

Awesome comparison 😊 But some benchmark scores of the A25 were swapped with the Redmi 13.
