POCO X8 Pro Max

For heavy users and gamers who want near-flagship speed and some of the longest battery life of any phone at a mid-range price, and don't need zoom.

Good

  • 8,500 mAh battery lasts about two days, and GSMArena ranks it among the longest-lasting phones it has tested
  • Dimensity 9500s (3 nm) gives flagship-level performance for gaming
  • Bright 6.83" 120 Hz AMOLED, IP68/IP69K, ultrasonic fingerprint reader and 100 W charging

Less good

  • Heavy and large at 218 g and 162.9 mm tall
  • No telephoto camera, and the 8 MP ultrawide is basic
  • No wireless charging
