Samsung S24 FE vs Motorola Edge 60 Pro top features test

Now the smoothness of the phone, user interface, animations. Apart from this, you also get a lot of features in Samsung here. Like small things, you get Samsung dialer in it, in which you get the feature of auto call recording even in today’s time.

 

You get a lot of good applications inbuilt. Like My Files, its own gallery, whose interface is very good. And here you can download many more applications of Samsung, notes, Galaxy Store, themes etc.

 

 

Animation of opening and closing the application

 

Whereas in Motorola, you get Google dialer here. In fact, here you cannot install o dialer in it. Because in case you want call recording, then here it does not support this application on Play Store. It is mentioned here that it is not compatible with it. So I open the camera app here side by side in both the phones. Here you will see that the animation of opening and closing the application is very good in both the phones. So as a matter of fact, there is no major difference here. But still you will get better quick response and smoother experience in Samsung here.

 

Along with this, you get a very basic C Files application in it. And the same stock photo application of Google. So you definitely have to bear all these things here in terms of software experience. Yes, by the way, some basic things have definitely been given here in Motorola. Clone apps by going to Like Apps, App Lock.

The edge light also looks very good here. When any notification etc. is received here. So you can clone social media apps etc. like WhatsApp, Messenger etc. For the rest of the customization, basic things are also available here. So it is not that it is a completely stock experience. And for the lock screen, some basic customizations etc. are also available here.

 

The rest of the S24 FE will get 6 years of major Android updates from now onwards. This company had mentioned 7 years of major updates. So you will get a better experience in Samsung in normal use of the phone. And when you perform heavy tasks like video editing and gaming, Samsung performs better in that. Now you will notice one thing here, Motorola has 4K 60fps HDR video.

 

Now AI support is also available in both the phones. And Motorola has very good AI features here. Like Update Me, Take Notes, Remember This, Magic Canvas in which you can basically create images etc. But the list of Samsung’s AI features is much larger. And its execution has also been done in a very strong way.

 

It has already received a major update which is Android 15. At the same time, Motorola claims that in this you will get 3 years of major Android updates and 4 years of security updates. So here Samsung is better in terms of updates as well. Some people have a little concern in Motorola phones, that is about the camera application.

 

 

GPU performance and benchmarks

 

On the other hand, if we talk about shutter lag, then that too is very less in Samsung. It is able to capture photos very fast. Rather, in S60 Pro, you are definitely getting to see shutter lag here. So the optimization of all these things is much better in Samsung. Now mainly let’s talk about the performance of both these phones. Samsung has Exynos 2400e with 8GB RAM. S60 Pro has Dimensity 8350 Extreme in which you get options of both 8 and 12 GB RAM.

 

Currently, both phones have LPDDR 5X RAM type. And Moto has UFS4 storage from the base variant which comes for ₹ 00. Samsung has UFS 3 storage in 128 GB variant and UFS4 storage in 256 GB variant. So first of all let’s talk about benchmarks, here you get better benchmark scores in Samsung. These are the scores of Geek 6. Samsung is slightly better in N2 benchmark as well.

In fact it even beats Samsung in many cases. Especially in low light, it has a much better performance. And you get 256 GB storage in just ₹00. Its battery life is better. And the heat is also much less than Samsung. So mainly if Samsung’s software experience does not matter much to you. In that case Moto is more value for money.

The overall difference is not much. And surprisingly, the GPU performance of both phones is very close here. I had expected Samsung to perform better. But S60 Pro’s GPU is also performing very well in benchmarks. In fact, in wildlife extreme, it is performing better than Samsung. Now let’s talk about real world performance. So, you are not going to face any issue in performing basic tasks in both the phones. And because Samsung’s optimization is better. Its UI is much smoother.

 

Sometimes it lags in between. Because Samsung plays it very smoothly. In fact, here as soon as I do it on 2X, in that case also Samsung’s optimization is very good. But here Motorola is lagging completely. You are seeing jitters in the video. It is not able to do the playback properly at 60fps. So definitely you will get better Samsung in terms of raw power or optimization. But a major concern comes here and that is throttling heating.

 

 

Battery backup and loos time

 

Mainly we talk about battery life. So Samsung has only 4700 mAh battery and Moto has 6000 mAh battery. Now there is no confusion here. You will get much better battery life in Motorola A60 Pro. So clearly Motorola is ahead in terms of battery life. And along with this, in charging also because it has support for faster charging. And I have done Samsung’s 100 to 0 battery drain test. In that it was completely drained in almost 7 hours. After using other phones side by side.

 

I can easily say that you will easily get one to 1.5 hours of extra battery life in S6 Pro. You get up to 90 W in the box. Rather, Samsung has support for maximum 25 W fast charging only. So clearly Moto Wins in terms of battery and charging.

 

 

Finel thoughts about both phones

 

So I have told you all the main differences in both the phones. Now after comparing both these phones in detail, I think the main point of Samsung here will be its software experience. You get better options in terms of its features and video recording. The quality is also better in comparison to Moto. But on the other hand S60 Pro is giving you very good offerings in a low price. Like there is complete competition in photos.

In the throttling test, you will see that Samsung’s score is only 63%. And Motorola’s is 84%. It has also shown a lot of throttling here. Its temperature also reaches 44-45 easily. So, you will get better sustained performance in Motorola. It also heats up less.

Especially we talk about outdoors. I did a long camera test in both the phones in which Samsung definitely got very hot. And Motorola did not get that much hot.

Samsung S24 Fe vs motorola edge 60 Pro performance test
Samsung S24 Fe and motorola edge 60 Pro

One thing I would like to say here is that Samsung has made good improvements. Like, even after the phone gets so hot, lags and jitters are not noticed at all. In fact, Motorola was less hot, even then you sometimes see lags and jitters in the camera application or time delay while shooting photo or video. So Samsung definitely gets hotter but you do not see performance drop in it in the real world.

 

If we talk about gaming performance

The graphic settings here are much better in Samsung. Like 90fps support in BGMI or HDR Extreme but sadly the frame rates you get here are not very good real world gaming performance. Like in 90fps, you will notice a lot of frame drops in it. HDR Extreme is also not able to handle well.

So basically the good game play you will get here will be on Smooth Extreme only. And in S60 Pro you get support only up to Smooth Extreme. So in that too it performs very well here. Now especially I liked Motorola’s heat management very much. Like in performing any heavy task, its temperature hardly goes above 40 ° Celsius. And somewhere overall it gives you a very balanced performance.

 

First of all let’s talk about the ultrawide camera

Now finally let’s talk about the cameras. I know you guys were waiting for this thing a lot. So Samsung has 12 megapixels and Motorola has 50 megapixels.

In Samsung you get a wider field of view. It captures more area. And with this you get better HDR performance. But as soon as we talk about sharpness details here. Motorola is much better than Samsung. Like literally on zooming here you can see the difference in quality. So actually in terms of sharpness and details, the ultrawide camera of S60 Pro is better. It’s just that Samsung captures more area.

Here apart from 1X you get the option of 2X which crops in from the primary camera in both the phones. Now I have noticed that there is not much difference in both the phones at 1X. You will just see a little difference in the colors and skin tones here. But especially at 2X, Samsung’s photos are brighter. And especially at 2X, Samsung’s HDR performance is also better here. Both the phones are using the main camera. They are doing digital zoom. Even then, Samsung does a little better processing here.

 

Sharpness and details at 1x and 2x

Apart from this, there is not much difference in terms of sharpness and details at 1x and 2x. Both these phones have a 50 megapixel camera. But as soon as we talk about 3x, the story changes a bit here. And because it has better HDR performance. Because of this, you like Samsung’s photos more in most situations. Otherwise, there is not much difference here in direct lighting. Next let’s talk about the primary camera.

In fact, at 3X, you get better sharpness in Motorola. Now obviously Motorola’s photos may look a bit dull compared to Samsung. But actually quality wise, this is better. Now you do get more zoom in Motorola.

Samsung has 8 megapixels, Motorola has 10 megapixels. Now maybe you might find Samsung’s photos better when viewed from a distance. They are brighter. But actually the reality here is different. Somewhere it is not able to render the face very well. And you will see here in the Samsung photo, my face has a kind of oil painting effect.

Samsung S24 fe vs motorola edge 60 pro detailed performance

Samsung S24 fe vs motorola edge 60 pro

Here you find the display of Motorola S60 Pro to be better because of less bezels. And apart from this, the display of S60 Pro has a better resolution. Here the resolution is 1.5K. Whereas Samsung has full HD plus. So this thing is clearly visible in normal use of the phones.

 

Motorola’s display is sharper

You can clearly notice this thing in content consumption and video watching. Yes, you get the support of Always On Display on both the phones. And its implementation also looks great. But you definitely get some extra things in Motorola’s display. Like this is 10 bit.

Both the phones are running Android 15. By the way, frankly speaking, the things here are largely one-sided. Like H24 FE has the latest One 7, you guys already know about Samsung’s features, its customizations, its user interface has become much better in 1UI 7. And the same thing is noticed here even in outdoors. Like in extreme sunlight, Motorola remains slightly brighter in the sun. And even in HDR content on YouTube.

So here this display can show better colors than Samsung. And apart from this, flicker prevention because in this you get better PWM dimming whose flicker rate is 720 Hz. So look, the display quality of both the phones is very good. In the display of S60 Pro, you get slightly more boosted colors and the contrast is also a bit on the higher side. Yes, one thing that is missing in S60 Pro is the support of HDR in Netflix, which you get in Samsung.

 

Mainly Talk about the brightness

So after turning off the auto brightness in indoors, whenever we set the brightness manually, then in that case the brightness of S60 Pro remains slightly higher. Here the vocal part in the speakers, means mid frequencies, I found Moto’s slightly better. But you will not have any complaint about the speakers of both the phones. Both have very good quality.

I found Motorola’s display to be brighter. But one difference is very big and that is of sustained brightness. Like outdoors in sunlight, H24 FE drops its brightness very quickly. Like hardly in 10 minutes and after that nothing is visible in it. Whereas S60 Pro is able to hold its brightness for a long time. Next let’s talk about the ear piece haptics and vibration of both the phones.

 

Samsung S24 fe vs motorola edge 60 pro detailed performance
Samsung S24 fe or motorola edge 60 pro

Their feedback is much better than Samsung’s. And the vibrations coming at the time of calling seemed quite similar to me in both the phones. Only the vibration of Motorola feels a little tight and crisp here. And the vibration of Samsung is a little deep. And the speakers are also of good quality in both the phones. V DB Atmos support. Here the vocal part in the speakers, means mid frequencies, I found Moto’s slightly better. But you will not have any complaint about the speakers of both the phones. Both have very good quality.

 

Talking about networks and Wi-Fi performance

So both the phones perform very well. Now whether we talk about Wi-Fi reception or 5G speeds. But still you will be able to notice when you compare both the phones side by side. In S24 FE, you get a little better Wi-Fi reception. Like it is able to maintain a little good speed even after moving away from the router. In fact, I did a 5G speed test in the same SIM card. Samsung provided more speed at the same place. So simply we can say that Samsung is definitely better in terms of Wi-Fi and network. Now as soon as we talk about the software experience.

In fact, the animations here are literally very buttery smooth. Like there is no comparison here. And especially in comparison to 1U 6.1, the smoothness you get here is absolutely next level. And brother, in comparison to Samsung, you get a kind of stock Android like experience in S60 Pro. Now see, what is the point of lying to you guys, the animations here and the gesture navigation are nowhere near Samsung, Motorola’s at this time.

Motorola is definitely improving here gradually. But currently, in comparison to this, Samsung seems to be at a completely different level. Now the gesture navigation you get in this is not very smooth. So personally I use the three button navigation here. It works better. Now the ear piece of Motorola is also very good. Quality wise the difference is not much. But the loudness of Samsung is much better. And let’s talk about the haptics. So here you will find Motorola’s haptics to be tighter and stronger.

Samsung S24 FE vs Motorola Edge 60 Pro

Samsung S24 FE or Motorola Edge 60 Pro

Samsung Galaxy S24 FE vs Motorola S60 Pro has become a very trending topic at this time. And by the way, confusion is justified because in S60 Pro you get 256 GB storage for ₹ 30,000, INR UFS 4 storage and 3X telephoto camera. And edge, I have purchased both the phones with my own money. So I have complete freedom. That which phone is better in what. I will tell you everything very honestly.

 

First of all let’s talk about the design

 

Looks and in-hand feel of these two phones. Now in terms of design, both the phones are very different. The looks department here is totally subjective. Now in Samsung you get absolutely flat edges from the side. On the other hand, in Motorola, you get curved edges from the front and back. And from the front too, you will see that Samsung has very thick bezels.

 

And the width of this phone is also much less than Samsung. So, for single handed use, Motorola S60 Pro is much better here. Infact my finger is able to touch the thumb easily here. In fact, it is a lot of struggle to do this thing in Samsung. By the way, the height of Samsung is also slightly more. But the difference is not as much as the width of the phones. And after applying cases etc. on the phones, Samsung feels much bulkier and bigger here. Now due to the glass in the back of Samsung, its in-hand feeling here is more premium than Motorola.

 

Samsung S24 FE vs Motorola Edge 60 Pro

In fact, the bezels here in Motorola are very less. Now look, it is a simple thing. From the front, I liked the design of S60 Pro better. It looks futuristic. Looks more premium. Because of the higher screen to body ratio and slimmer bezels. On the other hand, from the back, most people liked Samsung’s design more.

 

Now in Samsung, you get slightly curved edges here as compared to S23 FE. And even after having flat edges here, the phone does not stick at all in the hand. On the other hand, due to the curves in the front and back in S60 Pro, you get a much better grip in it. After holding the phone in hand, it feels like you are holding a flagship grade device in hand. On the other hand, in comparison to this, the Motorola here feels more sleek, light weight, more comfortable.

 

Talk about build quality and features

 

In this thing Samsung definitely takes more points because in this you get Gorilla Glass Victcts Plus in front and back and aluminum frame is available on the sides whereas in Motorola you get Gorilla Glass 7i in the front which will give you decent protection but in the back you get vegan leather and on the sides there is a plastic frame.

 

In terms of IP rating S60 Pro is slightly better here. In this you get IP68 as well as IP69 rating. Both the phones have wireless charging up to 15 W. But in Samsung you get reverse wireless charging whereas S60 Pro has reverse wire charging. At the same time, military grade drop protection has been given here in Motorola. Now in H60 Pro you get a dedicated button for AI here. So this is a good addition. Yes, both the phones have optical fingerprint scanner which has a good speed.

Charging speed and ports

 

Whereas Samsung has only IP68. By the way, you will not find much difference in terms of IP rating in both the phones. And normally both the phones will easily withstand a good amount of water contact. And neither of the companies will give warranty. So that thing is also exactly the same. Both the phones have wireless charging up to 15 W. But in Samsung you get reverse wireless charging whereas S60 Pro has reverse wire charging.

 

There will be no issue in unlocking the phone. But where the differences start to increase a bit more is some extra features of Samsung. Like Samsung has USB 3.2 type port whose speed will be much faster than Motorola’s type 2. And additionally you also get eSIM support in Samsung which is missing in Motorola. For better connectivity, you get support of Samsung Dex which is a very famous feature of Samsung phones.

Skate Story Heads to PS5 as a PS Plus Day One Addition

Skate Story Heads to PS5 as a PS Plus Day One Addition

Skate Story Set for Major Debut on PS5 with Day-One PS Plus Launch

Skate Story is officially heading to the PlayStation 5 this December, arriving as a day-one addition to the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for Extra and Premium subscribers. Sony confirmed the release for 8 December 2025, marking one of the service’s most notable indie arrivals of the year. The launch aligns with PlayStation’s ongoing strategy to bolster day-one value for subscribers.

Developed by Sam Eng and published by Devolver Digital, Skate Story stands out for its surreal premise and striking art direction. Players take on the role of a fragile demon made of glass, skating through a dreamlike underworld. The goal is as unusual as the setting: skate to the Moon and swallow it to win your freedom.

The game blends a meditative tone with precise, skill-based mechanics, echoing the difficulty and rhythm of real-world skateboarding. Basic moves such as ollies, grinds and slides create the foundation for more advanced tricks. Mastery of timing, balance and momentum becomes essential for progression, giving the game a rewarding learning curve.

Skate Story Heads to PS5 as a PS Plus Day One Addition

Players can also expect a twist on traditional combat, designed around skateboarding rather than weapons. Momentum, combos and well-timed stomps are required to defeat hostile underworld creatures and bosses. This system ties combat directly into the core skating mechanics, reinforcing the game’s unique identity.

Along the journey, players encounter bizarre characters populating the underworld, ranging from talking trash bags to eccentric ghosts. These encounters add personality and humour, helping soften the bleakness of the setting. Each character offers fragments of lore or challenges that deepen the narrative experience.

Customization plays a meaningful role through the game’s “soul currency”, earned by completing objectives and maintaining stylish runs. While upgrades focus primarily on cosmetics, they allow players to personalise their decks and accessories. The progression system encourages exploration and experimentation without disrupting the game’s difficulty balance.

Visually, Skate Story is defined by its shimmering glass protagonist, neon-lit voids and ambient environmental effects. Its soundtrack and sound design react dynamically to movement, crashes and trick execution. The overall presentation has already drawn significant attention for blending art-house sentiment with modern indie polish.

For PlayStation Plus subscribers, the day-one release enhances the December lineup with a high-profile indie title. It also underscores Sony’s latest push to expand its catalogue with same-day launches, a strategy previously adopted only occasionally. Industry analysts have noted increased interest in services offering immediate access to new releases.

Devolver Digital’s involvement adds further credibility, as the publisher is known for supporting distinct, boundary-pushing indie projects. Skate Story’s arrival on PS5 with full optimisation ensures smoother performance, faster load times and enhanced visual clarity. These improvements aim to elevate the atmospheric and precision-driven gameplay.

As the 8 December launch approaches, anticipation continues to grow among players seeking something unconventional within the action-sports genre. Skate Story’s blend of emotional storytelling, tight mechanics and hypnotic presentation could make it one of the standout indie releases of the winter season. Subscribers will have immediate access the moment it launches on PS5.

Should You Consider Realme 14 Pro Over Other Options

Should You Consider Realme 14 Pro Over Other Options

Realme 14 Pro Makes A Strong Case Against The Competition

 

For anyone currently exploring midrange smartphones, the Realme 14 Pro is becoming harder to ignore. It enters a crowded space but manages to stand out with a thoughtful mix of design, features, and pricing. The phone offers a sleek, modern finish paired with useful hardware, which includes a 120Hz AMOLED display, an efficient processor, and a camera setup that performs well in most conditions. These are features many other phones in this price segment either charge more for or don’t offer at all.

Where the Realme 14 Pro begins to separate itself is in the overall user experience. The phone feels smooth from the first boot, with a clean interface and minimal bloat. Its battery life is notably impressive, lasting well over a day even with regular use, and charging is fast enough to remove any real downtime. This type of consistency is what many users look for in a daily phone, and the 14 Pro delivers without pushing the price too high.

Another area where the Realme 14 Pro wins is value. In markets like the US and UK, the phone launched at a price that undercuts several competitors offering similar specs. That alone makes it a compelling consideration for buyers who want more phone for less money. It avoids flashy marketing tricks and instead focuses on actual user experience, which is paying off with strong early reviews.

Should You Consider Realme 14 Pro

Of course, alternatives exist. Brands like Samsung, OnePlus, and Motorola also offer solid midrange devices, some with better brand recognition or longer software support. But when comparing spec-to-price ratios and overall performance, the Realme 14 Pro makes a strong argument. It doesn’t try to do everything but what it does, it handles confidently.

If your priority is reliable performance, a vibrant screen, and camera quality that punches above its price tag, then the Realme 14 Pro is definitely worth considering. It may not be the only good option in the market right now, but for many users, it’s starting to feel like the right one.

Smartphones and Social Media: A Threat to UK Cognition

A person holding a smartphone with a concerned expression, surrounded by social media icons and a blurred background of the UK cityscape, highlighting the impact of smartphones and social media on cognition

The Impact of Smartphones and Social Media on UK Society

Smartphones and social media have become an integral part of our daily lives in the UK, but a prominent psychologist has warned that they are causing a decline in cognition and attention span.

This warning comes after a recent address at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where the professor outlined the severe damage these technologies are inflicting on global attention spans, education, and civic life.

The constant stream of information from social media platforms can be overwhelming, leading to a decrease in our ability to focus and analyse information.

This can have serious consequences, including a decline in academic performance and a lack of engagement in civic activities.

Furthermore, the rise of smartphones and social media has also led to a change in behaviour, with many people constantly checking their devices for updates and notifications.

This can lead to a range of negative effects, including anxiety, depression, and a decline in face-to-face communication skills.

In order to mitigate these effects, it is essential that we take steps to manage our use of smartphones and social media, such as setting limits on our screen time and engaging in activities that promote cognitive development.

By taking these steps, we can help to protect our cognition and attention span, and promote a healthier and more balanced use of technology in the UK.

Ultimately, it is up to each individual to take responsibility for their own behaviour and to make informed choices about their use of smartphones and social media.

By doing so, we can help to create a more positive and supportive environment, where people can thrive and reach their full potential.

The UK government and education system also have a role to play in promoting healthy technology use and providing resources to support cognitive development.

By working together, we can help to ensure that the benefits of smartphones and social media are maximised, while minimising the negative effects on our cognition and attention span.
