Design

If you look at the camera module, you can immediately realize that the POCO M3 Pro 5G has the most original design of the trio. The handset looks very attractive and youth to be just an entry-level, especially if you look at the POCO Yellow color variant. The Vivo Y52 5G is a bit more elegant and sober, but with bigger dimensions. With the Motorola Moto G50, you get a water-repellent design which is very useful if you want to use your phone in the rain. While POCO M3 Pro 5G and Vivo Y52 5G have a side-mounted fingerprint reader, while the Motorola Moto G50 has a rear-mounted one.

 

Display

The most advanced display belongs to the POCO M3 Pro 5G. It is a 6.5-inch panel with a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and a refresh rate of 90 Hz. It also offers the Gorilla Glass 3 protection by Corning. With the Vivo Y52 5G, you get a display with a Full HD+ resolution as well, but it lacks a high refresh rate. The Motorola Moto G50 has an inferior HD+ display, but it has a 90 Hz refresh rate. You should have understood the reason why POCO M3 Pro 5G is the best.

 

Hardware/Software

POCO M3 Pro 5G and Vivo Y52 5G are more powerful than the Motorola Moto G50 because they pack a Dimensity 700 processor built at 7 nm with better performance than Snapdragon 480 and even lower energy consumption. Between POCO M3 Pro 5G and Vivo Y52 5G, the former is the winner because it offers up to 6 GB of RAM and UFS 2.2 internal storage. Each of these phones runs Android 11 out of the box despite they are entry-level devices.

 

Camera

The best cameras are found on the Motorola Moto G50. It has a triple camera including a 48 MP main sensor with a brighter f/1.7 focal aperture, a 2 MP depth sensor, and a superior macro camera with a 5 MP resolution. The Motorola Moto G50 even provides a better front camera with a 13 MP resolution. Both POCO M3 Pro 5G and Vivo Y52 5G pack a triple camera with a 48 MP main sensor, a 2 MP macro camera, and a 2 MP depth sensor, as well as an 8 MP front camera.

 

Battery

POCO M3 Pro 5G, Vivo Y52 5G, and Motorola Moto G50 have a similar battery life because they come with the same battery capacity: 5000 mAh. But the Motorola Moto G50 should last a bit more because its display has a lower resolution.
