Editorial report

HMD Crest Max technical sheet

The HMD Crest Max suits buyers looking for an Android phone with a high-resolution rear main camera. Its 64 MP resolution is higher than that of most phones launched around the same time, a specific advantage for anyone who prioritizes image resolution. The camera also records video at 1080p and supports 120 fps slow motion.

The 6.67-inch OLED display has a resolution of 1080 × 2400 pixels and a density of 395 ppi. Its 90 Hz refresh rate and 600-nit peak brightness are lower than those of most phones of its time. Those are the clearest trade-offs for buyers who place particular importance on a high refresh rate or strong peak brightness. The phone has 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of expandable storage, and runs Android 14.

Its 5000 mAh battery supports 33 W charging; both figures are typical for phones launched around the same time. Other features include NFC, a 3.5 mm audio jack, dual SIM and IP52 protection. Overall, its performance, connectivity, camera, display and battery are typical compared with phones launched in a similar period. The HMD Crest Max earns an overall NeoScore of 5.5. It is best suited to buyers who value its 64 MP camera resolution and expandable storage more than a brighter display and a higher refresh rate.
