The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus impresses with its upgrades like IP rating, curved display, and NFC, though inconsistent camera output and poor low-light imaging along with bloatware mar the experience.

The Vivo V50 feels like a familiar sequel—similar to the Vivo V40 but with some fresh upgrades. Vivo's "if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it" approach works here. While not a radical change, the V50 surprised with its sleek design and solid improvements. The display and build feel premium, and though I feared dropping it due to the glossy/matte finish, I didn’t have to test my luck. ZEISS cameras improve photo quality, and at Rs 34,999, it’s a good deal for photography. Battery life easily lasts over a day and a half with heavy use. If you're on the Vivo V40, skip the upgrade. But if your phone’s older, the V50 is a strong choice—just don’t expect mind-blowing performance.
