OPPO Find X9 Ultra Review : Pros and Cons

The Redmi Turbo 5 just launched in India today, and it's already shaking up a segment that was already pretty competitive. At Rs 37,999, it's going up against the POCO X8 Pro at Rs 34,999, and the Motorola Edge 70 Pro at Rs 39,999. All three are worth your money.

Display 

The Redmi Turbo 5 and POCO X8 Pro are nearly identical on paper here: both have 6.59-inch 1.5K AMOLED panels with 120Hz refresh rates and around 3,500 nits peak brightness. Flat panels, punch-hole cutouts, clean and practical.

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro does something different. It's a 6.8-inch 1.5K Extreme AMOLED with a 144Hz refresh rate and an impressive 4,500 nits peak brightness, the highest of the three by a significant margin. It's also Pantone Validated for colour accuracy, which matters if you care about how photos and videos actually look on screen.

Display round goes to the Edge 70 Pro.

Performance 

All three phones run the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 series on 4nm, but the approach to performance is quite different across the three. 

The Redmi Turbo 5 and POCO X8 Pro are both clearly built with gamers in mind. The Turbo 5 packs a 480Hz touch sampling rate, and both phones come with large vapour chamber cooling systems designed to keep the chip running at full speed during extended gaming sessions. HyperOS 3 also adds a dedicated gaming mode with performance optimisation tools baked in. 

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro takes a more all-rounder approach. It runs the Dimensity 8500 Extreme, which is a thermally tuned variant of the same chip, and Motorola's focus here is on consistent everyday performance rather than peak gaming output.

All three use LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage, so app loading and general snappiness are quick across the board. The Turbo 5's 12GB variant gets the slightly faster LPDDR5X Ultra tier, but it's not a difference you'll notice in daily use. 

If gaming is a priority, the Turbo 5 and X8 Pro are the more purpose-built options here. The Edge 70 Pro is no slouch, but it's not what it's optimised for.

Camera 

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro is the standout here. It gets a dual 50MP rear camera setup with the main sensor featuring OIS, plus a 50MP autofocus front camera. That front camera resolution is notably higher than the 20MP shooters on both the Turbo 5 and X8 Pro. 

The Redmi Turbo 5 goes with a 50MP main with OIS and EIS plus a 20MP autofocus front camera. The POCO X8 Pro pairs a 50MP main with an 8MP ultrawide and a 20MP selfie camera. 

For versatility, the X8 Pro's ultrawide is useful. For overall camera quality and especially selfies, the Edge 70 Pro pulls ahead.

Battery and Charging 

The Redmi Turbo 5 has the biggest battery of the three at 7,560mAh with 100W wired charging, and the charger ships in the box. It also supports 27W reverse wired charging.

The POCO X8 Pro and Motorola Edge 70 Pro both come with 6,500mAh silicon-carbon batteries. The X8 Pro charges at 100W, while the Edge 70 Pro comes in slightly slower at 90W. Neither supports wireless charging. 

Software 

All three launch on Android 16. The Turbo 5 and X8 Pro run HyperOS 3, while the Edge 70 Pro runs a near-stock Android experience with Motorola's minimal skin. If you prefer cleaner software with fewer pre-installed apps, the Edge 70 Pro is the obvious choice here. 

On update support, the Redmi Turbo 5 and POCO X8 Pro actually pull ahead with four Android OS upgrades and six years of security patches. The Motorola Edge 70 Pro promises three major software updates and five years of security patches. Not a deal-breaker by any means, but if long-term software support matters to you, the Xiaomi camp has the edge here.

Price and Value

Phone	Variant	Starting Price
POCO X8 Pro	8GB + 256GB	₹34,999
Redmi Turbo 5	8GB + 256GB	₹37,999
Motorola Edge 70 Pro	8GB + 256GB	₹39,999

Which One Should You Buy 

The POCO X8 Pro is the easiest recommendation if you're budget-conscious. It shares the same chipset and display as the Turbo 5, costs Rs 3,000 less, and doesn't compromise on anything critical. If you don't need the biggest battery around, this is where most people should stop. 

The Redmi Turbo 5 makes sense if you're a heavy user who's constantly fighting low battery anxiety. The 7,560mAh cell is genuinely class-leading at this price, and paired with 100W charging, you're looking at a phone that can easily last for days. 

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro is for the buyer who wants a well-rounded phone rather than one built around a single strength. It has the best display of the three, the strongest camera setup including a 50MP front camera, near-stock Android, and a build that genuinely feels premium.
