First Cut Honor 8 Pro Looking To Unsettle The Flagship Killer

Let us get one thing clear: the Honor 8 Pro is a very contrary beast from the Honor 8, which remains one of the most gorgeous devices we have seen with that brilliant glass back (especially in the blue edition).

First Cut Realme 5 Pro Dare To Take On The Note And The X

First things first – the Realme 5 Pro is definitely one of the most attractive looking devices in its price segment.

First Cut Redmi 7A Modesty Is Its Very Successful Policy

A design from the past Remember how smartphones looked before notches, bezel-less displays and glass backs invaded the design world? Well, if you do not then, taking a look at the Redmi 7A will take you right back in time. The smartphone very unapologetically manages to stand outside of the “what today’s smartphones must look like” box, but being different is not necessarily a good thing. The Redmi 7A is a budget phone and looks like one – smart enough, but not designed to stand out....
