Honor 200 Pro

A decent smartphone, but one that struggles to stand out from the competition despite the good performance of its Snapdragon chip and the Harcourt mode which adds a slight added value. We like it but for 800 euros, you can get better. But during Black Friday, the Honor 200 Pro displays more than 300 euros reduction, which makes its quality-price ratio much more interesting.

The strong points of the Honor 200 Pro

• A single version with 512 GB of storage
• The performance of its Snapdragon 8s Gen 3
• Convincing Harcourt portrait mode

Instead of 799.90 euros, the Honor 200 Pro is now available on sale for 469.90 euros on Amazon.

A notch below, the Honor 200 is also on sale, this time at Fnac. Instead of 649.90 euros at launch, it is available at 399.90 euros.

Ditto for the Honor 200 Lite (256 GB), also on sale on Amazon. Instead of 299.90 euros, it is available at 199.90 euros.

OnePlus 12R

In the mid-range genre close to high-end, there is also the OnePlus 12R with an impressive technical sheet considering its price. AMOLED LTPO screen, the best SoC of 2023, 100 W charging… This smartphone is not perfect, it has its small flaws, but at less than 500 euros at the moment, it is well worth the detour!

The strong points of the OnePlus 12R

• A beautiful AMOLED LTPO
• Neither more nor less than a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in the belly
• Great autonomy and 100 W charging

Instead of 699 euros, the OnePlus 12R is now available on sale for 499 euros on Amazon.

Still in the OnePlus family, the Nord 4 (256 GB) is also on sale at Amazon. Instead of 499 euros, it is available at 397 euros.

Xiaomi 13T

In the mid-range genre close to premium, there is the Xiaomi 13T. A 144 Hz AMOLED screen and 67 W charging are its main strengths, the Xiaomi 13T also having to deal with lagging software and performance below the competition. But at almost half the price right now, this smartphone is becoming a bargain.

The strong points of the Xiaomi 13T

• The four years of updates announced (three now)
• The 6.67″ 144 Hz AMOLED screen with Gorilla Glass 5
• 67W fast charging which recharges it in 43 minutes

Instead of 651.90 euros, the Xiaomi 13T is now available on promotion for 399 euros from several merchants including Fnac.

Google Pixel 8a

The “A” version of the Google Pixel range is moving forward with the advantage of the fabulous quality/price ratio highlighted. The Pixel 8a has one of the best photo quality on the market, all in a compact format.

The strong points of the Google Pixel 8a

• The best digital zoom at this price
• The compact format and a well-calibrated 120 Hz screen
• 7 years of Android update
• Google AI and Gemini Nano

Instead of 479 euros, the Google Pixel 8a (128 GB) is now available on sale for 399 euros (without package) at RED by SFR, but also at Amazon.

The Google Pixel 7a (128 GB) is also on sale at Boulanger. Instead of a crossed out price of 399.99 euros, it is available on promotion at 349.99 euros.

Motorola Edge 50 Fusion

This year, Motorola presented its new range of smartphones, Edge 50, available in three models, including the Pro that we tested. With this series, the brand hopes to overtake Xiaomi and become number 3 in the smartphone market in France. Time will tell if it manages to get on the podium, but in the meantime, it is clear that its Edge 50s have many advantages.

The strong points of the Motorola Edge 50 Fusion

• Elegant design
• A pOLED panel refreshed at 144 Hz
• Un Snapdragon 7s Gen2
• Fast charging at 68W

Instead of 449.99 euros, the Motorola Edge 50 Fusion is now available on sale at 299.99 euros on Boulanger.

Nothing Phone (2a) Plus

The Nothing Phone (2a) Plus is an improved version of the Nothing Phone (2a) with a clear performance gain, but at the expense of battery life. The Nothing OS interface is still just as pleasant with its large array of widgets, as is the design with the Glyph system on the back. If you don't yet know Nothing smartphones, it involves LED lighting around the photo module serving as lighting but also as an additional interface.

The strengths of the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus

• Atypical design and the Glyph
• Increased performance with its Dimensity 7350 Pro
• Nothing OS, still great with its widgets

Instead of 449 euros, the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus 256 GB is now available on sale for 399 euros on Amazon.

Note that the Nothing Phone (2a) also benefits from Black Friday Week, since it falls to its lowest price on Amazon. Instead of 349 euros, the 128 GB version of this smartphone is available for 280.25 euros.

Still on the Nothing side, the smartphone from its low-cost brand, the CMF Phone 1 (128 GB) is also on sale at Amazon. Instead of 239 euros, it is available at 179.90 euros.

realme 12 pro

Here is a mid-range smartphone that looks premium. The realme 12 Pro marks the discreet return of the Chinese brand to the French market. Like other Chinese manufacturers, realme offers us here an efficient smartphone at an aggressive price. Above all, this model stands out with a particularly luxurious design.

The strong points of the realme 12 Pro

• A design that exudes luxury, since it was designed by a jeweler
• Honorable performance with Snapdragon 6 Gen 1
• 5,000 mAh battery with 67W SuperVOOC charging

Instead of 399.99 euros, the realme 12 Pro (256 GB) is now available on sale for 249.99 euros on Amazon.
