The Nokia 8 comes equipped with a 5.3-inch QHD 2.5D curved display which is protected by a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 5. Under the hood, Nokia 8 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 clocked at 2.45 GHz and mated to 4GB of RAM. On the storage front, the device offers 64 GB of internal memory which can be further expanded to 256 GB through a microSD slot. That being said, unlike its competitors....

Almost two and a half years ago, I wrote those lines after Xiaomi had launched the Redmi 1S in India, stressing that for all its “amazing specs at amazingly affordable prices” products, the Chinese brand’s secret weapon was the mystique surrounding its Global Vice President, former Google (and Nexus) man Hugo Barra. Those words might be haunting the Chinese company, following Barra’s decision to step down from his post a few hours ago....

Well, although the name iPhone just takes us to the smartphones with a half-eaten apple logo on the back, there was a time when the company got sued for naming its smartphone ‘iPhone’. Cisco Systems back then had the legal patent to call one of its device iPhone. The device allowed its users to use Skype without a computer which was launched around 22 days before the Apple’s iPhone was launched....

In a blog post, the company announces that the OnePlus 2 will have a fingerprint sensor. Well, it’s not an exclusive feature, as you might guess. There are a plenty of smartphones including iPhone 5s and up, and Samsung Galaxy S5 and up that boast this functionality. But a fingerprint sensor is a handy addition as it facilitates several features. One could, for instance, conveniently use it to unlock the lockscreen....

Ishan Agarwal, a prolific tipster who has quite a track record when it comes to OnePlus leaks, has https://twitter.com/ishanagarwal24/status/1124614647720574976tweeted the apparent Indian pricing of the OnePlus 7 Pro. According to Ishan, the base variant of OnePlus 7 Pro, which comes with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage will start at Rs 49,999, while the middle variant with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage will be priced at Rs 52,999 and finally, the top end version of OnePlus 7 Pro with a whopping 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage will be priced at Rs 57,999....

But even though its starting price of Rs 41,999 was a pleasant surprise for Indian users, there is no doubt that the OnePlus 8 does face considerable competition even at that price point (as we pointed out earlier). This is why unlike the 7 and 7T which were seen as the best options at their price points, the OnePlus 8 has a lot more to contend with, including its own predecessor, the OnePlus 7T....

So you can imagine how pleasantly surprised we were to see the folks at Opera (those who gave us tabbed browsing, remember), suddenly dip into their design reservoirs and come out with what they termed a “concept browser” because praise be, it looks like no other browser out there. And this hits you from the moment it launches. For unlike other worthies which promptly present you with a white box and an address bar, Opera Neon gives you… well, bubbles....

In terms of design, the Oppo Reno Z sports a similar design language to the other Reno series smartphones, with the 3D curved glass body with Aluminum mid-frame and the same O-Dot point on the rear to protect the device’s camera lens. And a 6.4-inch 2340 × 1080 pixels screen resolution Full HD+ 19.5:9 AMOLED HDR display on the front. At its core, the Reno Z is powered by a 12nm-based Octa-Core MediaTek Helio P90 processor with IMG PowerVR GM 9446 GPU, paired with 6GB / 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB / 256GB of storage....

Pete Lau, OnePlus’ CEO, and founder through a forum post revealed the OnePlus 5 will be powered by Qualcomm’s most recent Snapdragon 835 octa-core processor. Furthermore, the company will be ameliorating the software for a much better experience and more importantly, improved touch latency, something which their previous phones have been criticized for. Lau mentioned states that they’ve “used a special high-speed camera to track screen movements and measure input speeds and as a result, apps respond quickly to your touch for a seamless user experience....

Poco C3: Design and Display In terms of design, the Poco C3 appears similar to the Redmi 9C in that it has the same plastic back with a square-shaped camera module on the rear to house the triple camera setup. However, it does get the Poco’s signature two-tone pattern, which reduces fingerprint smudges and also claims to offer a better in-hand grip and feel. And there is also P2i coating....

No, not quite what everyone had expected. First, a bit of background. Xiaomi had surprised everyone in August 2018, when it revealed a new brand called Poco. The brand was supposed to be driven by Jai Mani, a former Googler (who had worked with Hugo Barra both at Google and Xiaomi), and posed a serious threat to OnePlus’ hegemony of the budget flagship segment. The brand’s first device, the Poco F1, was released in August 2018, won rave reviews and was also one of the bestsellers in its price segment....

Moreover, both the front and the back of the phone come with Corning’s Gorilla Glass 5 protection on top....

The announcement comes from the Xiaomi Vice President and Xiaomi India Managing Director, Manu Kumar Jain, who tweeted saying, “What started as a sub-brand in POCO has grown into its own identity in a short span of time. POCO F1 is an extremely popular phone across user groups and remains a top contender in its category even in 2020. We feel the time is right to let POCO operate on its own now, which is why we’re excited to announce that POCO will spin-off as an independent brand....

Smooth + Ultra Graphics on a Budget! For those of you who regularly play PUBG Mobile, we are sure you understand what Smooth + Ultra graphics means. For those of you who don’t, this graphics setting is usually found on more expensive devices that cost upwards of Rs. 15,000, like the new Poco X2 which has the Snapdragon 730G chipset. The Realme C3 costs less than half of that phone but still lets you play with a similar graphics performance....

Samsung and Lenovo have dominated the Android tablet market for a while now. But now a new competitor has entered this less crowded market. Who is this new competitor, you may ask? Well, it is none other than Realme. Over the past year, the company has ventured into a range of product categories, from AIoT products to the recently unveiled Realme Book Slim. Similarly, and to further expand its product portfolio, the brand has now entered the budget tablet market with the launch of the Realme Pad....

What’s Changed on the Redmi Note 6 Pro from the Redmi Note 5 Pro If we have to be concise, the display is now bigger and has a notch with dual front facing cameras rated at 20+2MP. The rear camera has received an upgrade as well and is now the same sensor as the Redmi Note 5 AI from earlier this year which is a 12+5MP setup with an f/1....

Unlike the Huawei P20 Pro, Samsung’s three-camera arrangement won’t set a new benchmark in the industry which is expected considering the price. It consists of a regular 24-megapixel f/1.7 lens, an 8-megapixel wide-angle sensor, and a third 5-megapixel f/2.2 snapper for depth-sensing. On the front too, the Galaxy A7 offers a high-res 24-megapixel selfie camera which the company says is capable of letting in more light by pixel binning. Apart from that, though, the Galaxy A7 is your usual mid-range smartphone....

To provide more clarity and perspective into what exactly Samsung is trying to do with the A8, it is essentially a phone for those who do not need/care about the truly latest and most powerful processors and huge capacities of RAM but do want a phone that is physically very attractive and has one of the best cameras out there. These are the kind of users who do not game a lot and even if they did, it would be in the likes of Sonic Dash, Candy Crush, Temple Run, Leo’s Fortune and such....
