What are the mobile phones worth buying in the first half of 2024?

There are too many mobile phones released by manufacturers, and it is normal for users to find it difficult to make the right choice for a while. Of course, when deciding to buy a new phone, most people will still put 12 points of energy into understanding it. It's just that many times the conditions don't allow this to be done, so I've sorted out some phones worth buying in the first half of 2024 for reference.

It is suitable for the main machine

iPhone 15 Pro Max: As the flagship of the Apple 15 series, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is suitable as the main machine for several reasons, with strong battery life, 6.7-inch screen, good viewing experience, equipped with A17 Pro chip + 8GB RAM + 48 million pixel triple camera system, which is basically a flagship machine with a balanced configuration and can cope with various use scenarios.

Redmi K70 Pro: A mobile phone equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen3 processor should also be one of the cheaper models in the same configuration. This mobile phone is willing to pile up materials, the second-generation 2K high-end screen, furious engine 3.0, and the built-in is a 5000mAh battery, supplemented by 120W wired fast charging, and there are 50 million pixels of three cameras for taking pictures, which is enough for daily use.

What's more, the entry threshold for Redmi K70 Pro is really not high, and now the price of this phone has fallen. In my opinion, if the performance requirements are not particularly high, the K70 Pro should be a suitable flagship choice.

OnePlus 12: A Snapdragon 8Gen3 flagship machine that is very suitable for playing games, Hasselblad full-focal length super light and shadow image, third-generation Snapdragon 8 flagship chip, and even this phone has a 24GB+1TB top-of-the-line storage combination, it can be said that the next plus 12 can indeed play an important role in daily use or high-demand scenarios.

This mobile phone is also currently in a state of falling prices, and I personally think that if there is a corresponding appeal, it is not bad to consider OnePlus 12 as the main machine, after all, the body design and feel are OK.

A small-sized phone that feels good

Xiaomi 14: It is also equipped with a Snapdragon 8Gen3 processor, but the screen size is 6.36 inches, there are three cameras with 50 million pixels, the main camera is the Light and Shadow Hunter 900 sensor, the battery and charging have been improved, objectively speaking, Xiaomi 14 can meet user expectations better than Xiaomi 13, but the price of Xiaomi 13 has fallen to a lower level, and there may be some opportunities.

However, combined with the specific situation and considering the life cycle of the mobile phone, I still think that the Xiaomi 14 is more in line with the expectations of most consumers. After all, the price of Xiaomi 14 has also been reduced, and 16GB+512GB also seems to be close to the people.

iPhone 15 Pro: 6.1 inches supportProMotion adaptive refresh rate technology, equipped with A17 Pro chip, 8GB of memory, and also 48 million + 12 million + 12 million triple camera system, except that the screen and battery are a little smaller than those of iPhone 15 Pro Max, the rear image is slightly inferior to Apple's top flagship phone, and other aspects are basically the same.

This is also the core of the iPhone 15 Pro's ability to attract many users. After all, well-balanced flagship phones with a good feel are mainly concentrated in the Apple iOS camp and Xiaomi mobile phone sequences. In other words, there is really not much choice in pursuing this.

A flagship camera for taking pictures

Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra: Leica Optics Summilux lenses, two-way satellite communication, and surging OS have become the main selling points of the Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra. But this phone also uses a Snapdragon 8 Gen3 processor, and the memory combination is also at the top level, but its core advantage is still the image.

The one-inch variable aperture main camera, Leica floating telephoto, Leica close-up telephoto, and Leica ultra-low distortion wide angle are indeed very competitive. In addition, the storage of Xiaomi 14 Ultra is also relatively large, the storage is 12GB, and there are 16GB+1TB to choose from, but the price is higher than that of flagship machines such as Xiaomi 14 Pro.

OPPO Find X7 Ultra: 1-inch dual periscope quad main camera, Hasselblad image, third-generation Snapdragon 8, 6.82-inch screen, 5000mAh battery + 100W wired flash charging, etc., also fill the hardware pile. Objectively speaking, there are differences in the adjustment of each imaging flagship, but in fact, the OPPO Find X7 Ultra's photography has been recognized by most users. So on the premise of focusing on this demand, I think this phone can be started with your eyes closed.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: It should be said that it is the flagship of the Samsung S series that has changed a lot, in addition to the memory is no longer stingy, the body design has also caught up with the needs of users. Of course, the price aspect has now become the highlight of the Galaxy S24 Ultra, making it appropriately lower the barrier to entry. In essence, this phone is a well-balanced flagship, but the quad-camera system on the rear, especially the telephoto shooting, is really strong, and it has to be classified as an imaging flagship.

Of course, there are also some cost-effective mobile phones, which will not be mentioned in detail one by one, such as Redmi K70, Honor X50 GT, OPPO K11, iQOO Z8, etc., you can learn more.
