Stepping stones to cybercriminals, smartphones are getting better every day, taking giant leaps towards data privacy and safety. Putting OnePLus Nord CE 2 Lite and Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus on the privacy battleground, we found gaps inviting breaches. Giving tough competition with a high-quality camera, best-in-class process and iconic display quality, OnePlus needs to catch up in security features because the Redmi Note 12 Pro has something extra.
Breaking the lousy consumer perspective towards Chinese smartphones, Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus is fueled by MediaTek Dimensity 1080-introducing a whole-new performance and experience from the house of MediaTek.
Putting the OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite parallelly, it sports The Snapdragon® 695 chipset, clubbing an energy-efficient octa-core architecture and Adreno 619 GPU that levels up entertainment, gaming, and things that you love.
Seeing both from the lens of data privacy, both hands on the latest security features – fingerprint scanner, face recognition and end-to-end encryption. China-made mobiles are making every possible effort, yet the government and agencies have never been soft towards Chinese smartphone companies. Supernote or Nord for tech nerds? Since both put privacy parallelly, the conclusion comes to specifications and features that set them apart.
