The cameras on this phone offer great clarity and detail. Images and videos look great when taken in well-lit situations, although they can still be improved with a little boost on the colors. As for photos taken indoors or in low light, it’s a hit or miss. Video stabilization is also available on this device.
The side-mounted fingerprint is a special favorite of mine as it feels natural to access given that you already rest your thumbs on the side of the phone when holding it. Plus, it’s fairly accurate and fast so unlocking the phone is easy.
The images and videos come out with great details on the Huawei Y9s’ Full HD+ screen. The colors are vibrant, text looks crisp, and pictures and videos offer good contrast all throughout. Thanks to the IPS panel, the screen provides great viewing angles and enough brightness. To complement this, the Y9s is also equipped with a good audio system—there’s not enough bass, but it can go loud enough to fill a room.
The front shooter takes social media-worthy selfies as they are detailed and bright—although the colors are a bit washed out. I don’t recommend turning on the beauty mode; the filters and beautification can look unnatural at times.

STARDEW VALLEY SUPREMACY
Stardew Valley is definitely one of the most successful and most popular indie games to have come out in the last few years. What started out as a fan-made alternative to Harvest Moon (Back to Nature is definitely one of my ultimate favorite games of all time), the game eventually received financial support and a cult following, paving the way for its release in 2016. By 2020, the game has sold over 10 million copies.

SONIC TRIUMPH - Sony WF-1000XM4
Sony’s latest TWS earbuds in the critically acclaimed 1000X series is a sonic triumph. Called the Sony WF-1000XM4, these earbuds are powered by a more capable Sony V1 chip, which improves the active cancellation of high frequencies and achieves 40% lower noise levels overall compared to the QN1e chip found in the WF-1000XM3.
WELL-ROUNDED MIDRANGE - TCL 20 Pro 5G
An outlier in the midrange Android smartphone game, the TCL 20 Pro 5G approximates the camera capabilities and display technology you can expect from flagship devices costing twice as much.
