Xiaomi has taken the mobile market by storm. From being almost unknown, there are now more and more of the Chinese mobiles in the stores, and we are getting used to saying “Xiaomi” [shaw-mee], just as they once got used to saying “Huawei ”. We have tested several of Xiaomi’s latest models, including Xiaomi Mi …
True to custom, Sony has again this year launched a compact version of its flagship mobile on the streets, a few months after the top-of-the-line expensive smartphone – this time Sony Xperia 1 III – hit the stores.

We have repeatedly called Motorola the king of the middle class, and the company has given us several excellent mobiles in the reasonable price segment – such as the budget model Moto G30, the premium mobile Moto G100 and the super cheap 5G mobile Moto G 5G Plus. But until now, Motorola has had greater …
In 2020, Chinese OnePlus launched a brand new series of affordable smartphones under the name OnePlus Nord. Since then, we have tested both the OnePlus Nord for almost and the somewhat cheaper OnePlus Nord N10 5G. We liked both mobiles so far, but the OnePlus Nord N10 will probably be a little too limeted for …
Although Chinese-owned Motorola is present at the absolutely expensive end of the mobile market with flagship models such as the Motorola Razr 5G and Motorola Edge+, the former US mobile manufacturer stands strongest when it comes to mid-range smartphones.

We never got to test last year’s predecessor to the Samsung Galaxy S21 + 5G, but prioro to 2020, the Plus version was the Galaxy S series’ absolute top model.

Toughphones are robust phones that are designed to withstand harsh treatment. They are popular tools for craftsmen and soldiers, but can also be used by scouts – as well as by very fumbling people who otherwise always have a mobile with a broken screen. We have tested toughphones from CAT several times; a name well known from …

Many liked Sony’s Compact models because they – despite their smaller format – did not compromise on performance. With last year’s introduction of the Xperia 1 as the flagship, the name disappeared, and instead we got the Xperia 5 as the smaller model. We liked it, but it was not very exciting. Now comes the …
Earlier this year, OnePlus launched two phones, OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro, the latter of which got all the attention. And that in both the good and the bad way. OnePlus 8 Pro was and is the best smartphone the Chinese company has ever launched on the market, and we have just declared it …
Sony wants to stand out from the crowd in the mobile market.

Doogee is a manufacturer few Scandinavians have heard of. And it hopefully sounds more of quality and credibility in Chinese than it does in the western ears. In any case, those with seven years of experience are relatively experienced in the industry. The Doogee S68 Pro looks like a typical artisan phone. The back is …
