How we calculate ratings

Promobile ratings are based on several important factors, and this is how we calculate the ratings for each mobile.

We start with the processor performance: the better the processor, the higher the rating. Next, we test the camera, examine user reviews, and assess both gaming and camera performance. After that, we evaluate the battery performance by conducting a drain and charging test. Finally, we compare the phone’s price with other devices in the same price range. This helps us determine whether the mobile offers good value for money. If other phones in the same price range provide better features and performance, we give the phone a lower rating.

Check each rating below to better understand our rating system.

Processor

Processor

We evaluate processor performance by assessing its strength and multitasking capabilities. We compare the processor's performance with other similarly priced mobile devices to determine its relative power. Ultimately, we assign a rating based on a combination of performance and value for money, ensuring a fair and accurate assessment.

Processor rating 1 to 2
Struggles with basic tasks, slow and unresponsive 0 /10
Processor rating 3 to 4
Handles basic tasks adequately, but may lag sometimes 0 /10
Processor rating 5 to 6
Handles most tasks smoothly, but struggle with heavy apps 0 /10
Processor rating 7 to 8
Good overall performance, handles most tasks efficiently 0 /10
Processor rating 9 to 10
Excellent performance, handles heavy tasks effortlessly 0 /10
Battery

Battery

Battery ratings are determined by considering three key factors: battery backup, charging speed, and price. We compare the battery performance and charging time of a device to other similarly priced phones to arrive at a rating

Battery rating 1 to 5
Poor battery life, slow charging and poor value for the price 0 /10
Battery rating 6 to 7
Average battery, decent charging speed, fair value for the price 0 /10
Battery rating 8 to 10
Excellent battery life, fast charging, excellent value for the price 0 /10
Camera

Camera

Camera performance is rated on a scale of 1 to 10, considering factors like image quality and value for money

Camera rating 1 to 5
Poor camera & image quality, not worth the price 0 /10
Camera rating 6 to 7
Average image quality, fair value for the price 0 /10
Camera rating 8 to 10
Excellent image quality, excellent value for the price 0 /10
Gaming

Gaming

We measure gaming performance based on factors including gaming benchmarks, gamer reviews, and our own tests. We assess factors such as game load times, frame rate stability, battery drain, lag, and overall optimization. We then compare the phone's gaming performance to similarly priced devices to determine its value for money.

Gaming rating 1 to 5
Poor gaming performance, not suitable for gaming 0 /10
Gaming rating 6 to 7
Average performance, but not a dedicated gaming device 0 /10
Gaming rating 8 to 10
Excellent gaming performance, dedicated gaming phone 0 /10
Overall

Final overall rating

Our final rating is based on a comprehensive evaluation of the device's processor, camera, battery, and gaming performance, as well as its overall value for money.

Overall rating 1 to 5
Poor performing phone, not worth the price 0 /10
Overall rating 6
Average performing phone, better options available 0 /10
Overall rating 7
Good performing phone, decent value for the price 0 /10
Overall rating 8
Great performance, excellent value for the price 0 /10
Overall rating 9 to 10
Exceptional performance, highly recommended 0 /10

Mobiles like Samsung and Apple iPhones get an additional +1 point due to their brand value/resale value, but only when other performance criteria are checked. We don’t favor any brand when it comes to ratings, as we prioritize our visitors and avoid any biased statistics.
