Samsung Galaxy S26 FE review: Find out how the Exynos 2500, 120Hz AMOLED display, cameras, battery and seven-year updates perform in daily use.

Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: Performance, Cameras, Battery & Price

The Galaxy S26 FE brings an Exynos 2500 chip, 120Hz AMOLED display, 3x telephoto camera, Galaxy AI and seven years of updates.

Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: A Premium FE With Few Compromises

The Galaxy S26 FE offers a premium build, 120Hz AMOLED display, strong Exynos 2500 performance, capable cameras and seven years of updates, but USB 2.0 and its ₹79,999 price raise questions.

The Galaxy S26 FE has a harder case to make than previous FEs. The gap to the regular Galaxy S range has shrunk, so its compromises need careful judging.
It certainly does not look under-equipped. The phone brings a glass back, aluminium frame, 120Hz AMOLED display, Exynos 2500 chip, 3x optical telephoto camera, wireless charging, Galaxy AI features and a seven-year software commitment. For most buyers, that covers the essentials expected from a premium Samsung handset.
The India model comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and costs ₹79,999. Samsung&rsquo;s launch offers can lower the effective price to ₹71,999.
The question, then, is not whether the S26 FE is capable. It plainly is. The real question is whether Samsung has made enough improvements over the S25 FE, and whether its compromises become easier to accept once you compare it with the Galaxy S26. That makes its positioning interesting.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: Design</h2>
The S26 FE looks more premium than previous FE phones , primarily because of its redesigned camera module.
Samsung has replaced the separate rear camera rings of the <a title="Vivo X200 FE vs Oppo Reno 14 Pro vs Samsung Galaxy S25 FE: The ultimate camera test" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/mobiles/vivo-x200-fe-vs-reno-14-pro-vs-s25-fe-the-ultimate-camera-test-1759300685064" target="_blank">S25 FE</a> with one raised camera housing. It is a small change, but it gives the back a neater appearance and makes this generation look current. The downside is practical: the module protrudes enough for the phone to rock about when it is lying on a table.
In hand, the phone is better than its 6.7-inch screen size might suggest. At 7.4mm thick and 193g, it is slim and light for a large device. The aluminium alloy sides have a firm feel, while Gorilla Glass Victus+ protects the front and rear. IP68 protection is here too, so there is no cost cutting around durability.
I have been using the Pistachio colourway, and it is the one I would choose. It is not loud, but it has more personality than the usual safe finishes. Graphite is available for a restrained look, while Blueberry offers an alternative.
The controls and ports follow Samsung&rsquo;s familiar layout. Power and volume buttons sit on the right. Along the bottom, you will find the SIM tray, USB-C port and one of the stereo speakers. The optical fingerprint reader is built into the display, and it has been quick and accurate for me.
The Galaxy S26 uses Armour Aluminium, which is a step up on paper. Even so, the S26 FE does not feel cheap or flimsy. Samsung has made sensible material choices, and this is one part of the FE experience where the difference to a flagship is difficult to notice in daily use.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: Display &amp; Speakers</h2>
There is no mistaking this for anything other than your typical Samsung display. The S26 FE&rsquo;s 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel is bright, colourful and excellent for the things most people will use it for, whether that is scrolling, reading articles or watching a film in bed.
It runs at Full HD+ resolution, supports HDR10+ and reaches up to 1,900 nits, according to Samsung. I found it viewable outdoors, even under direct sunlight. Images have contrast and deep blacks, while text remains crisp enough that the Full HD+ resolution never felt like a limitation. YouTube and Netflix are especially enjoyable on a screen this large, and HDR10+ titles gain a lift in contrast and highlights. Dolby Vision is not supported.
What has not changed is the underlying panel technology. Samsung has again used 8-bit LTPS instead of LTPO, meaning the refresh rate is restricted to either 60Hz or 120Hz. The standard <a title="Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Review: Pros, Cons &amp; Real-World Test" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/samsung-galaxy-s26-ultra-review-pros-cons-real-world-test-1773923373353" target="_blank">Galaxy S26</a> can adjust its refresh rate through a broader range, which should be more efficient and makes the S26 FE&rsquo;s display one of the clearer cost-saving decisions.
That said, it does not feel compromised while you are using it. The 120Hz mode keeps animations and scrolling smooth, and the viewing experience remains premium.
The stereo speakers complement the display well. They are loud enough for videos, music and podcasts, with clear dialogue and decent separation. The lower speaker is stronger than the earpiece, but the pair produces a satisfying soundstage.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: Cameras</h2>
The S26 FE&rsquo;s cameras work best when you treat them as a dependable point-and-shoot system. Samsung has retained the S25 FE&rsquo;s hardware: a 50MP OIS main camera, 12MP ultrawide, 8MP OIS telephoto with 3x optical zoom, and a 12MP selfie camera.
The main camera carries the system. In daylight, it produces detailed photos with attractive colours and dynamic range. Samsung&rsquo;s processing is restrained enough that images do not look excessively saturated. The 2x crop remains useful, and portrait mode handles edge detection and background blur well.
The telephoto and ultrawide need decent light. The 3x camera gives you useful reach for outdoor subjects, but it begins losing fine detail as the light falls. The ultrawide produces good daytime photos and broadly matches the primary camera&rsquo;s colours. It lacks autofocus, though, so close-up photography is not its strength.
Once it gets dark, stick with the main camera. It retains colours well and captures respectable detail, while Night mode can lift darker scenes. The telephoto and ultrawide are less convincing here, with softer results and more noise. Night mode can also make some photos look overly processed.
The 12MP front camera produces sharp selfies, with pleasing skin tones and dynamic range.
Video is one of the S26 FE&rsquo;s strong area. The main camera records at up to 8K30 or 4K60. The ultrawide and telephoto reach 4K30, while the front camera supports 4K60. Stabilisation is excellent across the rear cameras, especially while walking or panning. Pro Video adds frame-rate choices for users who want control.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: Performance</h2>
The Exynos name may still make some buyers cautious, but the Galaxy S26 FE gives little reason to worry about speed in real use. It is powered by Samsung&rsquo;s 3nm Exynos 2500, alongside 8GB of LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage, replacing the Exynos 2400 found in the S25 FE.
One UI feels quick throughout. Apps launch promptly, moving between several applications is effortless and I did not run into stutters during normal use. It is also a very capable gaming phone. BGMI runs at high frame rates and stays smooth through longer sessions, without the performance suddenly falling away.
The benchmark results explain why. My unit reached 2,727,349 points in AnTuTu 12, with the GPU alone scoring just over one million. Geekbench 7 returned 2,061 points in single-core and 7,596 in multi-core testing. Those are firmly flagship-grade results, not merely respectable numbers for an FE handset.
Sustained stress does reveal some throttling. In 3DMark Wild Life Extreme Stress Test, the S26 FE managed 61.8% stability, dropping from 4,198 at its best to 2,596 at its lowest. Still, that did not translate into an uncomfortable experience. The phone gets warm during prolonged gaming and repeated benchmarks, but it never became too hot to hold. Samsung has clearly improved thermal control compared with recent Exynos devices.
There is an unnecessary downgrade elsewhere. Samsung has moved from USB 3.2 on the S25 FE to USB 2.0, which means slower transfers and removes DisplayPort output and wired DeX. Wireless DeX remains available, but this is a functionality Samsung should not have taken away.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: Software</h2>
If you keep a phone for years, the S26 FE&rsquo;s software promise matters. It arrives with One UI 9 on Android 17, and Samsung says it will receive seven Android generation upgrades plus seven years of security updates. That is flagship-level support.
The interface remains a Samsung advantage. One UI is packed with options, but it is still easy to settle into. It feels responsive and polished. Samsung has tidied up Quick Settings, while the Galaxy AI hub is simpler to browse, important because there are tools available.
Several are designed to assist throughout the day. Now Brief pulls together relevant information, Now Nudge offers prompts and Circle to Search has been improved. Bixby has also become more useful for general questions through its Perplexity integration.
The most practical AI additions are the editing tools. Gallery gives you a substantial set of options for cleaning up, changing and reworking images without moving to another app.
My FanCam is the feature that stands out. Choose a person in a video you have recorded, and the phone identifies them as the subject. It then tracks that person through the clip, adjusting the crop, framing and zoom automatically. For a child, pet or anyone moving around during a recording, it can rescue a video that was not perfectly framed in the first place.
Samsung has not restricted this Galaxy AI suite to the pricier S26 phones. Combined with its update policy, the S26 FE offers the same software experience for less.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: Battery</h2>
The S26 FE delivers dependable all-day battery life, but nothing more.
Samsung has used the same 4,900mAh battery as the S25 FE. Calls, messaging, browsing, social media, streaming and some camera use will comfortably take you from morning to night. Push the phone with long gaming sessions, navigation or heavy photography, however, and you should expect to charge before the following day.
The charging hardware has not moved either. The S26 FE supports 45W wired charging, but Samsung does not include an adapter. It also offers 15W wireless charging and reverse wireless charging for earbuds or accessories.
The results are adequate, but Samsung&rsquo;s battery approach looks cautious beside rivals adopting bigger cells and faster charging.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy S26 FE Review: Verdict</h2>
The Galaxy S26 FE has little wrong with it. Samsung has delivered a premium-feeling build, a lovely display, strong Exynos 2500 performance, dependable cameras, all-day battery life and useful software support. One UI 9 and the seven-year update commitment make it easy to live with over time.
That sounds like a strong FE package. The problem begins only when you look at what Samsung is asking for it.
The S26 FE costs ₹79,999 for its 8GB and 256GB configuration. At the same price, with a discount, Samsung sells the regular Galaxy S26. The S26 has a smaller screen, but it brings more RAM, better performance and a more capable camera system. Launch offers reduce the FE to ₹71,999, yet an ₹8,000 saving does not settle the equation.
The USB 2.0 port and missing wired DeX are peculiar steps backwards from the S25 FE.
Once the street price falls, the S26 FE could become a very sensible purchase. Until that happens, Samsung&rsquo;s own Galaxy S26 is the more logical choice.

Redmi Note 17 Pro review: With a 9,000mAh battery, 120Hz AMOLED display, rugged IP69K build and six years of security updates, is it worth Rs 36,999?

Redmi Note 17 Pro Review: Brilliant Display, 9000mAh Battery, But Is It Worth Rs 36,999?

The Redmi Note 17 Pro packs a massive 9,000mAh battery, bright 120Hz AMOLED display and rugged build, but its performance, cameras and Rs 36,999 starting price leave room for debate.

Redmi Note 17 Pro Review: Massive Battery, Brilliant Display, But There’s a Catch

The Redmi Note 17 Pro impresses with a huge 9,000mAh battery, excellent 120Hz AMOLED display and rugged build, but modest performance, average cameras and its Rs 36,999 price hold it back.

The Redmi Note 17 Pro has a fairly clear idea of what it wants to be: a phone that lasts for days, can take plenty of abuse and still delivers a good experience for everyday work, streaming and casual gaming.
And the hardware certainly backs that up. There&rsquo;s a massive 9,000mAh battery, a 6.83-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and IP69K protection. Redmi is also promising surprisingly solid software support. Even the design has some personality, especially the Purple Vibe variant I have been using, which is a refreshing change from the endless black glass slabs.
The problem is the price.
The Redmi Note 17 Pro starts at ₹36,999 for the 8GB + 128GB variant, while the 8GB + 256GB model costs ₹39,999. That puts it in seriously competitive territory, where faster performance, better cameras and more premium materials are fairly easy to find.
So, are that enormous battery, rugged build and big AMOLED display enough to make the Note 17 Pro worth considering? Let&rsquo;s find out.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Design: Big, Bold And Built To Take A Beating</h2>
Durability is clearly one of the Redmi Note 17 Pro&rsquo;s biggest strengths, and Redmi has packed in pretty much everything you could ask for here.
The display is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2, while the phone gets IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings for protection against dust and water. Redmi also claims it can survive drops from up to three metres. That is an impressive level of protection, especially considering how large and heavy this phone is.
And yes, it is quite heavy. The Note 17 Pro weighs 226g, although <a title="Redmi Turbo 5 Review: Big Battery, Fast Gaming, Great Value" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/redmi-turbo-5-review-big-battery-fast-gaming-great-value-1781778612906" target="_blank">Redmi </a>has managed to keep the thickness down to 8.6mm despite squeezing in a massive 9,000mAh battery. You will notice it in your pocket, but I found the size fairly comfortable to manage with my larger hands.
The Purple Vibe variant I have looks quite nice as well. The lavender-toned fibre finish gives the back some texture and, more importantly, makes it less slippery while keeping fingerprints away. You can also get the phone in Cloud Blue and Stealth Black.
The camera layout is slightly unusual. Individual metallic camera rings sit within a pill-shaped section, which is then placed inside a larger squircle-shaped island. There are multiple layers to the design, but it remains fairly understated.
Both the frame and back are polycarbonate. The phone still feels sturdy and well put together, but considering prices start at ₹36,999, I would have preferred something a little more premium.
As for the essentials, you get USB-C 2.0, a speaker grille, microphone and an IR blaster. There is also dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.1 and a dual SIM tray.. The optical in-display fingerprint scanner is reliable as well.
Overall, the Note 17 Pro is not trying to be particularly slim or compact. Instead, Redmi has focused on making it comfortable enough to use, difficult to damage and practical for everyday use.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Display And Speakers: Great For Binge-Watching</h2>
If you spend a lot of time watching videos on your phone, the <a title="Redmi Note 17 Review: Still Worth the Note Name?" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/redmi-note-17-review-still-worth-the-note-name-1786700453605" target="_blank">Redmi Note 17</a> Pro has plenty going for it. The 6.83-inch flat AMOLED panel is massive, with a 2772 x 1280 resolution, 12-bit colour depth and a 120Hz refresh rate.
And it is a very good display for content consumption. YouTube videos look sharp, Netflix shows are enjoyable, and the sheer size of the panel makes movies much more immersive. I also prefer the flat screen here, since there are no curved edges eating into the usable viewing area.
Colours are vibrant without looking unnecessarily saturated, while the 1.5K resolution keeps finer details nice and sharp. Brightness is another strong point. Redmi claims a peak of 3,500 nits, and its Sunlight Display mode makes the phone easy to use outdoors. That extra brightness is particularly useful for something like checking Google Maps under harsh sunlight.
There is, however, one notable omission. You do not get Dolby Vision or HDR10+ on the Note 17 Pro. Both formats are available on the Pro Max instead. It does not suddenly make the display bad, but at this price, their absence is difficult to ignore.
Everything else is fairly well covered. The 120Hz refresh rate keeps scrolling and animations smooth, while gamers get up to 3,200Hz instantaneous touch sampling. There is also 3,840Hz PWM dimming, DC dimming and T&Uuml;V eye-protection certification for more comfortable viewing at night.
The dual speakers complement the display nicely. They can comfortably fill a small room, and the 300% volume boost comes in handy when you do not have earbuds around. Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res audio are supported as well. They obviously cannot match a dedicated Bluetooth speaker, but the output is fuller and more enjoyable than many phones in this segment.
For streaming, gaming or simply spending hours scrolling through social media, the display and speakers are easily among the Note 17 Pro&rsquo;s strongest features.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Performance: Smooth Enough, But Gamers Should Look Elsewhere</h2>
The Redmi Note 17 Pro&rsquo;s performance is certainly not it&rsquo;s headline feature. Just look at the SoC it uses, the Snapdragon 6s Gen 4, paired with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM, and you&rsquo;ll get what we are on about. The focus here is clearly on delivering reliable everyday performance rather than chasing benchmark records.
For regular use, that is perfectly fine. Apps open quickly, scrolling remains smooth and multitasking does not cause any major problems. The phone scored 956,058 on AnTuTu, while Geekbench 7 produced a single-core score of 891 and a multi-core score of 2,633.
Storage speeds depend on the variant you choose. The 128GB model uses UFS 2.2, whereas the 256GB version gets the faster UFS 3.1 standard. Given the choice, I would spend extra on the 256GB variant, especially if you plan on keeping the phone for a few years.
The more interesting result came from the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme stress test. The Note 17 Pro recorded 99.1% stability, with its best loop scoring 775 and its lowest managing 768. Those scores highlight the limited graphics performance, but such a small difference between the highest and lowest loops also shows that sustained performance remains remarkably consistent. Thermal management is pretty decent as well.
We skipped our usual gaming benchmarks because this simply is not a gaming-focused device. You can still play BGMI or Call of Duty: Mobile comfortably for a casual half-hour session. Push beyond that, though, and occasional jitters and dropped frames begin creeping in.
For work, social media, streaming and some casual gaming, performance is perfectly adequate. Serious mobile gamers, however, can find considerably more powerful hardware at this price.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Software: Six Years Of Support Is The Big Win</h2>
One of the biggest reasons to consider the Redmi Note 17 Pro for long-term use is its software support. The phone ships with Android 16-based HyperOS 3 and gets four Android version upgrades alongside six years of security updates, taking support all the way to 2032. That is excellent for this segment.
HyperOS 3, meanwhile, feels largely familiar. It is quick, colourful and gives you plenty of ways to customise the interface. Animations are fluid, the widgets are useful, and HyperIsland displays live notifications and ongoing activities around the front camera in an easily accessible strip.
Unfortunately, some familiar Xiaomi annoyances remain. There are pre-installed apps, promotional notifications and several things worth cleaning up during the initial setup. Most of these can be disabled or removed, but users really should not have to spend their first hour doing that.
There are plenty of AI features as well. Google provides Gemini and Circle to Search, while Xiaomi adds its own tools for writing assistance, live transcription and on-device translation.
HyperConnect makes transferring content between Xiaomi devices easier. There is also Offline Communication, which lets compatible devices exchange messages without relying on a mobile network. I can see that being particularly useful while travelling through areas with patchy connectivity, even if it is unlikely to become an everyday feature for most people.
HyperOS 3 still feels busier than necessary, but six years of security updates and four Android upgrades give the Note 17 Pro a major advantage if you plan on keeping your phone for several years.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Cameras: Good Enough For Everyday Photos</h2>
Cameras are not really the Redmi Note 17 Pro&rsquo;s strongest suit, although the setup is perfectly usable for everyday photography. You get a 50MP main camera with OIS, an 8MP ultrawide and a 16MP camera at the front.
Most of your photos will naturally come from the 50MP main camera, and daylight results are generally good. There is enough detail, skin tones look natural and dynamic range is decent. Colours occasionally get a slight boost, but rarely to the point where they look unnatural. Portrait mode works reasonably well too, although edge detection can struggle with hair and more complicated outlines.
Things become less impressive once the light starts fading. Detail takes a hit and heavier processing becomes noticeable, although OIS helps with keeping shots steady. You can still get perfectly usable nighttime photos, just do not expect flagship-level results.
The 8MP ultrawide is handy for landscapes, interiors or fitting larger groups into the frame, but there is a noticeable drop in detail and dynamic range compared to the main camera. Its limitations become even clearer in low light.
Selfies from the 16MP front camera are perfectly fine for social media and video calls, without doing anything particularly special.
Video recording is limited to 1080p at 30fps across the front and rear cameras. Stabilisation is adequate for casual clips, but anyone serious about shooting video should look elsewhere.
Overall, these cameras cover the basics well enough, but they are unlikely to be the reason you buy the Note 17 Pro.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Battery: Two Days Is Easy, Three Is Possible</h2>
If there is one area where the Redmi Note 17 Pro really stands out, it is battery life. The massive 9,000mAh silicon-carbon battery can comfortably deliver more than two full days of use. Xiaomi claims up to three days, and based on my experience with the 120Hz display running at around 70% brightness, that seems achievable with lighter usage.
Charging such a massive battery obviously takes some time. Redmi includes a 67W charger in the box, which takes roughly 90 to 95 minutes for a full charge. That is certainly not the quickest around, but when you only need to plug in every couple of days, it becomes much easier to live with.
You also get 22.5W wired reverse charging, letting the phone top up earbuds, smartwatches or even another smartphone when needed.
For frequent travellers, heavy users or anyone who simply hates charging their phone every night, this exceptional endurance is easily one of the Note 17 Pro&rsquo;s biggest selling points.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Verdict: A Great Everyday Phone, If Found At The Right Price</h2>
The Redmi Note 17 Pro makes the most sense for someone who values battery life, durability and a great multimedia experience over outright performance.
That 9,000mAh battery is easily the highlight, but the large AMOLED display, loud speakers, excellent protection and long software support make it a dependable everyday phone as well. For travellers and heavy users in particular, there is plenty to like.
There are compromises, though. At 226g, it is heavy, while the plastic frame feels underwhelming at this price. The Snapdragon 6s Gen 4 is perfectly capable for daily use but not demanding gaming, and the cameras are decent rather than exceptional. Missing out on Dolby Vision and HDR10+ when the Pro Max gets both is disappointing too.
My biggest concern is the price. The Note 17 Pro feels slightly expensive for what it offers, so I would definitely look for discounts. Get it at the right price, though, and it becomes a very easy phone to recommend for long-term everyday use.

Poco X8 Power review: We test its 10,000mAh battery, 1.5K 120Hz AMOLED display, Snapdragon 6 Gen 5, cameras, 100W charging and overall performance.

Poco X8 Power Review: 10,000mAh Battery Phone Done Right?

The Poco X8 Power packs a massive 10,000mAh battery, 100W charging, a 1.5K AMOLED display and IP69K protection. Here’s how it performs in the real world.

Poco X8 Power Review: An Endurance Champion With a 10,000mAh Battery

The Poco X8 Power delivers exceptional three-day battery life, a sharp 1.5K AMOLED display and rugged protection, but its performance and cameras lag behind some similarly priced rivals.

A few years ago, putting a 10,000mAh battery in a smartphone would have sounded absurd. In 2026, it feels far less unusual. Even 8,000mAh cells are becoming common, so the Poco X8 Power needs more than sheer capacity to stand out.
Its biggest talking point is still that 10,000mAh silicon-carbon battery. More impressive, however, is how Poco has fitted it inside an 8.65mm chassis that weighs 229g. The rest of the package is fairly ambitious too. There is a 1.5K 120Hz AMOLED display, Gorilla Glass Victus 2, IP69K protection and 100W charging, along with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage.
The Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 is where things become less straightforward. It feels like an unusual choice for a phone starting at ₹35,999, particularly when everything else sounds so competitive. So, is the Poco X8 Power genuinely a well-rounded smartphone, or is that enormous battery doing most of the selling?
<h2>Poco X8 Power Review: Design</h2>
The yellow <a title="POCO X8, X8 Power Launched in India With Up to 10,000mAh Battery, 100W Charging" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/poco-x8-x8-power-launched-in-india-with-up-to-10-000mah-battery-100w-charging-1788512739591" target="_blank">Poco </a>X8 Power is anything but discreet. Its bright vegan-leather rear sits against a black frame and matching camera module, giving the phone a bold, slightly playful look. I quite like the contrast, but the finish is useful too. The textured back offers a secure grip and keeps fingerprints far less visible than glossy plastic or glass.
Of course, there is no disguising the size. At 229g and 8.65mm thick, the X8 Power feels substantial from the moment you pick it up. Still, once you remember that Poco has packed a 10,000mAh battery inside, those figures feel surprisingly reasonable. It is a large phone, but not the awkward brick I had expected.
Poco has also taken durability seriously. Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protects the display, while IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings provide extensive resistance against dust and water. That is a stronger set of protections than you typically find in this price segment.
Elsewhere, the phone includes an optical fingerprint scanner beneath the display, stereo speakers and an IR blaster. Wireless connectivity covers Bluetooth 6.0 and dual-band Wi-Fi 5, with support for 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac.
There are compromises, though. The USB-C port only supports USB 2.0 speeds, while NFC and eSIM are both missing. With no NFC, tap-to-pay services are unavailable, and these omissions feel particularly noticeable on a phone priced at ₹35,999. Neither issue ruins the overall experience, but buyers who rely on either feature will need to look elsewhere. That remains rather difficult to overlook here.
<h2>Poco X8 Power Review: Display</h2>
If you watch plenty of OTT shows or YouTube videos on your phone, the Poco X8 Power makes a strong case for itself. Its 6.83-inch flat LTPS AMOLED panel has a 2772 &times; 1280 resolution, so this is a proper 1.5K display rather than a standard FHD+ one. It also supports 12-bit colour, the DCI-P3 gamut and a 120Hz refresh rate.
The screen looks excellent in everyday use. Images are crisp, contrast is strong and colours have plenty of punch without appearing excessively saturated. Poco claims a peak brightness of 3,500 nits, and outdoor visibility is impressive. I had little difficulty reading the display even under bright sunlight.
However, the phone may run at 60Hz by default, so you will need to select 120Hz manually. The difference is immediately apparent in scrolling and system animations. That small change makes the phone feel much quicker and ensures you are actually getting the experience this panel was built to deliver.
Streaming is another highlight. Both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision are supported, with Dolby Vision working on compatible Netflix content. Wet Touch 2.0 and TUV triple eye protection are included as well. Touch sampling can reach 3,200Hz instantaneously, although that maximum is only available through Game Turbo.
The stereo speakers are equally difficult to ignore. They support Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res Audio, while Poco advertises a 400% volume-boost mode. Honestly, that sounds more like an elaborate name for a very loud pair of speakers.
And loud they certainly are. At around 70 to 80% volume, there is already enough output for videos and films without headphones. At 400%, things become properly loud. Crucially, the speakers offer more than volume alone. Combined with the large, sharp Dolby Vision display, they turn the X8 Power into a genuinely enjoyable phone for entertainment.
<h2>Poco X8 Power Review: Cameras</h2>
Photography is not the reason to buy the Poco X8 Power, but its cameras are dependable enough for everyday use. Rather than crowding the rear with unnecessary sensors, Poco provides a 50MP primary camera with OIS and an 8MP ultrawide.
Most of my better shots came from the main camera. Its wide f/1.5 aperture helps capture a healthy amount of detail in daylight, while skin tones generally remain accurate. The processing sometimes pushes colours further than I would prefer, though the results are usually ready to share without demanding much editing before they go online. That large aperture also creates pleasing background separation naturally, so Portrait mode is not always necessary. A 2x in-sensor zoom is available when you need a closer view.
The ultrawide is mainly useful for fitting more into the frame. Its 8MP resolution leaves it short on fine detail, and the quality drops further when the lighting becomes weaker.
Video capabilities are surprisingly flexible. The primary camera records at 4K30 or 1080p60, whereas the ultrawide tops out at 1080p30. Shooting modes include Portrait, Pro, Ultra HD, Panorama, Dual Video and Live Moments.
Selfies come from a 32MP f/2.2 front camera. It produces reasonably detailed pictures, although the beautification can sometimes smooth skin too aggressively. The selfie camera also supports 4K30 and 1080p60 recording, which is a welcome inclusion.
Ultimately, this is a capable camera system rather than a standout one. The main camera handles the essentials well, but buyers prioritising photography will find stronger options elsewhere.
<h2>Poco X8 Power Review: Performance</h2>
This X8 Power is the first smartphone in the country that is powered by the all-new Snapdragon 6 Gen 5. This basically means raw speed is not the X8 Power&rsquo;s strongest suit.&nbsp;
What it does offer, however, is remarkable consistency, and that matters once you start playing games for longer stretches.
The clearest evidence comes from 3DMark&rsquo;s Wild Life Extreme Stress Test. Its best loop score was 1,190, while the lowest stood at 1,179. That works out to 99.1% stability, which is exceptional. BGMI supports 60fps, and my experience reflected those results initially. Gameplay stayed smooth for roughly 30 minutes, with no major temperature concerns. After around 45 minutes, occasional frame drops and some sluggishness started creeping in. It is not a gaming phone, but longer BGMI sessions remain perfectly enjoyable.
Regular use is even less demanding. Apps launch quickly, scrolling is fluid and multitasking generally happens without fuss. The limitations only become obvious in benchmark results. The phone scored around 980,000 in AnTuTu v11, while Geekbench 7 produced 962 in the single-core test and 3,007 in multi-core. For a phone starting at ₹35,999, those figures are difficult to celebrate.
That distinction is important. The phone rarely feels slow when handling ordinary tasks, yet it does not have the extra headroom you might expect at this price. Buyers chasing high benchmark scores or demanding gaming performance should set their expectations accordingly before buying one.
Poco pairs the chipset with LPDDR5X RAM, but storage needs closer attention. UFS 4.1 is reserved for the top 256GB version. The cheaper 128GB model misses out on that. We reckon it may be using UFS 2.2 instead. That difference makes the 256GB variant my clear recommendation. Overall, the X8 Power prioritises dependable sustained performance over outright pace.
<h2>Poco X8 Power Review: Software</h2>
The Poco X8 Power runs HyperOS 3 on top of Android 16. If you have used a recent <a title="Redmi Note 17 Review: Still Worth the Note Name?" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/redmi-note-17-review-still-worth-the-note-name-1786700453605" target="_blank">Xiaomi </a>or Poco phone, everything will feel familiar, from the general layout to the customisation options. I particularly like how much freedom HyperOS gives you to change the lock screen and the wider look of the interface.
The more obvious annoyance appears during setup. Poco preloads several apps and games, including the Indus Appstore. Thankfully, most of them can be uninstalled, so cleaning up the phone does not take particularly long. Glance is not enabled on the lock screen by default either, which is a welcome decision.
For the most part, the software feels smooth in daily use. Apps behave as expected and navigating the interface rarely causes trouble. I did, however, notice occasional jitters while switching between apps. Notifications were also delayed a couple of times when the phone was locked, possibly because HyperOS was managing background activity too aggressively. These issues were infrequent, but they were still noticeable.
There are some useful additions beneath that clutter. Circle to Search is available, while Xiaomi Offline Communication lets compatible nearby Xiaomi and Poco phones communicate over Bluetooth without cellular connectivity.
Poco also promises four years of Android OS upgrades and six years of security updates. That should take it to Android 20.
<h2>Poco X8 Power Review: Battery</h2>
The 10,000mAh silicon-carbon battery is the reason the Poco X8 Power exists, and its endurance is every bit as impressive as the capacity suggests.
This is comfortably a three-day phone. With calls, browsing, social media and streaming in the mix, I regularly ended a full workday with around 60-65% charge left. Lighter users may be able to stretch it beyond three days. Even synthetic benchmarks reduced the battery by just 3%, which is something I have never seen from another phone.
Charging such a large battery still takes time, despite the 100W HyperCharge support. Using the included 100W adapter, a complete charge took around 50-55 minutes during testing. The X8 Power also supports 27W wired reverse charging, letting it charge your other devices when required.
<h2>Poco X8 Power Verdict: An Endurance Champion</h2>
At ₹35,999, the Poco X8 Power is not the choice for every buyer. Its Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 handles daily tasks without trouble and can run BGMI reasonably well, but faster phones are available for similar money. The cameras are serviceable, although they are unlikely to satisfy anyone placing photography near the top of their list.
What sets this phone apart is endurance. The 10,000mAh battery can deliver three days of use, while 100W charging prevents refilling it from becoming a painfully long affair. Its 27W reverse-charging support is genuinely practical as well.
The supporting hardware makes the proposition stronger. You get an excellent 1.5K AMOLED screen, extremely loud stereo speakers, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and IP69K protection. Together, those features make it well suited to watching content and surviving demanding days away from home.
Ultimately, your priorities decide whether the X8 Power makes sense. Look elsewhere if performance or cameras matter most. But for frequent travellers, heavy content consumers or anyone tired of watching the battery percentage, few phones offer this level of reassurance.

vivo Buds review: We test the ₹1,999 wireless earbuds for sound quality, battery life, comfort, calls, gaming, and features to see if they are worth buying.

vivo Buds Review: Best Budget Earbuds Under ₹2,000?

The vivo Buds offer impressive battery life, a lightweight fit, punchy sound, spatial audio and dual-device pairing at ₹1,999. Here’s how they perform in real-world use.

vivo Buds Review: Excellent Battery Life at ₹1,999

The ₹1,999 vivo Buds deliver excellent battery life, a lightweight fit, punchy sound and reliable dual-device pairing, making them a strong budget pick despite average calls and no ANC.

Buying a pair of earbuds under two grand usually feels like a gamble that you are destined to lose. Most brands love throwing fancy spec buzzwords onto the retail box, but the moment you pop them into your ears, you get tinny audio, cheap, creaky plastics, or a Bluetooth connection that stutters the second you drop your phone into your pocket.
Vivo is trying something different with the new vivo Buds. At ₹1,999, there is zero overpromising here. The pitch stays dead simple: give buyers huge battery endurance, a super-light fit, seamless two-device pairing, spatial audio, and audio that actually packs some punch.
I carried the Nilgiri Green pair around everywhere for a full week, using them across daily office work, chaotic bus commutes, and late-night gaming sessions. Here is my take on how they hold up.
<h2>Design and Comfort</h2>
Right out of the box, the vivo Buds look very impressive and very polished, with a full glossy finish on both the case and the earbuds. You get a Type-C port at the bottom and no pairing button anywhere in sight. Pop the lid open, and you see the buds sitting inside in a full monochromatic look. The design surely feels like it's punching above its price tag.
I got my hands on the Nilgiri Green unit, which has this calm, minty green tone that I ended up really liking because it is not loud. While it kept my oily fingerprints out of sight, it was an absolute magnet for dust and pocket scuffs. Just three or four days of sliding it in and out of my jeans pocket, I started spotting fine scratches all over, which showed up easily against the pale green plastic.
Another thing I noticed was the lid hinge. At first, it gave me this super-crisp, loud click whenever I snapped it shut, which felt great. But after a week of fidgeting with it, the hinge definitely developed a bit of loose play.
The earbuds carry that same glossy plastic that we see on the case, and they weigh just 3.8 grams each. The moment I put them on, that featherweight build paid off. The tips sealed into my ears effortlessly without making me feel that stuffy, inner-ear pressure. I even shook my head around vigorously to see if they would slip, but they stayed firmly in place.
I kept them on for several multi-hour editing shifts and felt no earache. Plus, with their IP54 rating, I did not have to stress when I got sweaty during quick evening runs or was caught in a light drizzle.
<h2>Audio Quality</h2>
At this price point, nobody should go in expecting god-level sound, and the <a title="Vivo S2 Review: Massive Battery, Premium Design, Minimal Compromises" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/vivo-s2-review-massive-battery-premium-design-minimal-compromises-1786105671836" target="_blank">vivo</a> Buds certainly are not pulling off audio miracles. Still, packing a 10mm high-resolution moving-coil driver inside, they hold their ground surprisingly well.
Whenever I test any audio gear, I queue up tracks across different genres to get a genuine feel for what the drivers can do. I kicked off my testing with vocal-heavy acoustic tracks and subtle piano arrangements, such as Raabta by Arijit Singh, All of Me by John Legend, and Imagine by John Lennon.
The overall delivery was decent for what you pay, but I did notice that the background instrumentation got a bit muddy during busier passages. Even with that slight muddiness, if you want my honest opinion, the sound comes across as much more vibrant and lively than I anticipated from a budget pair.
In fact, these buds handle bass-heavy tracks far better than pure acoustic melodies. It is not mind-blowing sub-bass, but it packs enough punch to keep things energetic. I cycled through my usual rotation of hip-hop, Punjabi beats, and rap to test the low-end thump, and the results were seriously impressive for the price tag.
The rhythm feels punchy and fun, though in that chase for bass energy, the buds do end up losing some of the finer instrumental details that audiophiles would crave.
On the codec front, you get standard AAC and SBC support. That is pretty much what every brand offers in this segment, so no surprises there. There is also no active noise cancellation here. Expecting ANC at this price point would honestly be an unfair ask, but I will admit that missing out on it made my daily metro commutes and walks through crowded markets a bit chaotic, since you can still hear the outside chatter cutting right through your music.
<h2>Call Quality</h2>
When it comes to taking calls, my experience with the vivo Buds has been pretty decent, but with clear boundaries. If you are sitting in a quiet office cabin, your bedroom, or anywhere without too much commotion around, the dual-mic setup works completely fine.
My voice came through loud, crisp, and natural on the other end, and I had no issues breezing through long catch-ups and routine work meetings.
The trouble begins once you step outside into genuine chaos. The moment I took calls along packed streets, near blaring traffic horns, or in crowded transit areas, such as during my metro commutes, the experience quickly turned unpleasant for both me and the person on the other end and me.
While the onboard AI noise cancellation and cross-flow wind duct try their best to suppress ambient racket, sharp street noises and chatter still managed to leak right into the conversation. My voice would sometimes sound slightly distant or compressed as the algorithm aggressively tried to fight the background noise.
If you mostly take calls indoors or in relatively controlled spaces, these buds get the job done reliably. But I definitely would not recommend relying on them for important calls while standing in the middle of a noisy market.
<h2>Software Support</h2>
Over the years, the software experience for the Vivo TWSs has gotten just better. If you use a Vivo or iQOO phone, you get a few extra ecosystem perks, but I did a chunk of my testing paired with my <a title="Vivo X300 FE Review: Flagship Performance in a Pocket-Friendly Body" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/vivo-x300-fe-review-flagship-performance-in-a-pocket-friendly-body-1778065708933" target="_blank">Vivo X300 FE</a>.
On third-party phones, you have to download the vEarphones app, but honestly, the overall difference in day-to-day use felt fairly negligible.
The app covers all the essentials well, including control remapping and dual-device pairing. Spatial audio is part of the package too, though right now it only works if you are paired with the Vivo X300 FE or the Vivo X300 Ultra. Vivo claims updates are on the way to fix that.
Naturally, you miss out on wear detection, so tracks will not pause when you pull a bud out, but at this price, that did not bother me at all.
What genuinely stood out was the low-latency mode. I do not have the lab tools to measure whether it actually hit the claimed 42ms mark, but during my gaming sessions, the sync was flawless. Gunshots fired on time, and footsteps came through right when they happened on screen.
The app interface is far from the prettiest software I have ever used, but it gets the job done without crashing or lagging.
<h2>Battery and charging</h2>
If there is one area where the vivo Buds completely won me over, it has to be the battery endurance. Vivo packs a 51mAh battery into each earbud and a 513mAh cell inside the charging case. On paper, they promise up to 12 hours on a single charge and a massive 50 hours with the case.
In my real-world routine, keeping the volume around 65 to 70 per cent, I easily pulled around 9&ndash;10 hours of continuous music and video playback. That is phenomenal endurance value, especially for the price.
I used these buds through an entire workweek of editing, work calls, and daily listening without having to hunt down a charging brick once. When I finally ran them down, the charging was dependable too.
Dropping the buds into the case for just 10 minutes gave me roughly four full hours of playback, which was more than enough to cover my evening commute. Juicing the whole case back up over Type-C took about two hours, just as claimed. For anyone tired of constant battery anxiety, this setup feels practically bulletproof.
<h2>Final verdict: Should you buy it?</h2>
For two thousand rupees, the vivo Buds do not try to pull off any miracles, which honestly works in their favour. Rather than slapping on weak, gimmick-grade ANC just for marketing, Vivo got the daily stuff right.
You get crazy-good battery backup that easily beats most rivals around this price, a super-light fit you can wear all day, spatial audio, and two-device pairing that actually works without fuss.
Are there compromises? Absolutely. That shiny case picks up scratches way too fast, outdoor calls get messy in traffic, and I really missed having auto-pause when pulling an earbud out.
Still, if your week looks like mine, with hours of continuous music, quick gaming rounds, and jumping between a phone and a laptop without Bluetooth headaches, these give you serious value. If you have two grand in your pocket, buying these is practically a no-brainer.

The Pixel 11 Pro XL promises better cameras, smarter AI and improved Tensor G6 performance. After a week of use, here’s where Google’s flagship excels and falls short.

Google Pixel 11 Pro XL Review: Is Google’s ₹1.35 Lakh Flagship Worth It?

The Pixel 11 Pro XL doubles down on cameras, AI and software polish, while Tensor G6 and slow charging remain its biggest compromises.

There&rsquo;s a certain comfort that comes with picking up a new Pixel. You pretty much know the kind of experience Google is going for, and after spending more than a week with the Pixel 11 Pro XL as my primary phone, I don&rsquo;t think that predictability works against it at all.
Yes, the new colours immediately caught my eye when the phone arrived in August, but the more interesting changes reveal themselves once you actually start using it. Tensor G6 sits at the heart of the experience, Android 17 feels wonderfully polished, Google has stuffed the phone with new AI features, and there are some important camera improvements to explore as well.
None of this transforms what a Pixel is supposed to be. Instead, Google seems increasingly comfortable refining the things that already make its phones distinctive.
Then there&rsquo;s the price. The 12GB/256GB Pixel 11 Pro XL costs ₹1,34,999, which is undeniably premium. Yet, with flagship prices climbing steadily higher, it ends up looking surprisingly competitive. More importantly, it delivers the kind of well-rounded, polished experience I expect when spending this much on a phone.
<h2>Google Pixel 11 Pro XL Review: Design</h2>
Google&rsquo;s horizontal camera bar has become such a recognisable part of the Pixel that I&rsquo;m happy to see it return. This time, glass covers the entire camera housing from one edge to the other, which gives the Pixel 11 Pro XL a cleaner finish from the back.
India gets Canyon, Olive, Fog and Obsidian. Canyon is certainly the showstopper, but my Obsidian review unit has grown on me considerably. Every colour gets matte glass, although Obsidian is the only one that carries that treatment over to the aluminium frame. The others use polished aluminium. Personally, I prefer the all-matte approach, especially since fingerprints were barely noticeable despite my sweaty hands.
This is still a pretty big phone. It weighs 226g and measures 8.5mm thick, so reaching across that large body with one hand isn&rsquo;t always effortless. What helps is the excellent weight distribution. There&rsquo;s also virtually no rocking when you use it on a table because the camera bar stretches across the phone.
HiLight is the most interesting new design flourish. Built into the camera housing alongside the cameras, flash, microphone and laser hardware, this RGB light can alert you to calls from favourite contacts and animate while Gemini listens, thinks or responds. It&rsquo;s a fun addition, and more control over its colours and behaviour would make it even better.
For protection, there&rsquo;s Gorilla Glass Victus 2, IP68 certification and Google&rsquo;s anti-scratch shield, claimed to more than double scratch resistance.
Finally, you get an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, USB-C 3.2, nano-SIM and eSIM support, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, NFC and compatibility with PixelSnap accessories.
<h2>Google Pixel 11 Pro XL Review: Display and Speakers</h2>
The sheer size of the Pixel 11 Pro XL makes it a natural fit for watching content, but thankfully, Google has also given it a display good enough to make the most of all that real estate.
We&rsquo;re looking at a 6.8-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED panel with a 2K (1344 x 2992) resolution, HDR10+ support and an adaptive refresh rate ranging from 1Hz to 120Hz. Google quotes 2,400 nits of HDR brightness and a peak of 3,600 nits, and I never had to squint at the screen while using it outdoors.
What impressed me more was how good everything looked indoors. OLED gives you wonderfully deep blacks, contrast is excellent, and colours have just the right amount of punch. Fire up a movie or a YouTube video and the large canvas really comes into its own. It&rsquo;s the closest this phone gets to feeling like a miniature tablet.
The 120Hz refresh rate also makes a difference outside entertainment. Scrolling through webpages feels slick, animations are fluid and the entire interface responds beautifully. Thin, uniform bezels help with immersion, while Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and Google&rsquo;s anti-scratch shield protect the panel.
Google hasn&rsquo;t neglected audio either. The stereo speakers can get seriously loud while maintaining clear dialogue and a nicely balanced sound. There&rsquo;s good stereo separation in landscape, and music has enough body that I regularly ended up using the phone itself instead of reaching for a speaker.
Spatial Audio is supported with compatible content, apps and headphones too. Taken together, the screen and speakers make the Pixel 11 Pro XL an excellent little entertainment machine.
<h2>Google Pixel 11 Pro XL Review: Cameras</h2>
What I enjoy most about photographing with the Pixel 11 Pro XL is the consistency. Whether I&rsquo;m quickly capturing something during the day, zooming into a distant subject or shooting after sunset, I rarely have to think too much about getting the shot right.
Google has some serious hardware backing that experience. The main camera uses a new 50MP f/1.68, 1/1.3-inch sensor, joined by a 48MP f/1.7 autofocus ultrawide with Macro Focus. The 48MP f/2.8 5x telephoto gets a larger 1/1.95-inch sensor with OIS, which Google says gathers 32% more light. There&rsquo;s also a 42MP ultrawide autofocus selfie camera.
Results across the three rear cameras are excellent. Images retain plenty of detail, dynamic range is superb and colours generally stay nicely balanced. Google&rsquo;s characteristic processing is still visible, particularly the sharpening and brighter shadows, giving photos that recognisable Pixel flavour.
Zoom is another highlight. The 5x camera produces some lovely results, while 10x remains surprisingly capable. Pro Zoom can reach a rather bonkers 120x when you want to experiment.
Instant Night Sight is far more practical. Google claims captures can be up to 4.5 times faster, meaning considerably less time spent trying to keep your hands perfectly still.
Camera Looks lets you customise the character of your photos, while Magic Capture can extract high-quality stills from recorded video.
Video options are extensive too, including Pro Stable Video, Video Boost, Night Sight Video, 10-bit HDR, Macro Focus Video, Audio Magic Eraser and boosted recording up to 8K.
The specifications are impressive, but Google&rsquo;s computational photography is ultimately what makes the entire camera experience click.
<h2>Google Pixel 11 Pro XL Review: Performance</h2>
Benchmarks tell one story about the Pixel 11 Pro XL. Actually using it tells another, and that distinction is important when talking about Google&rsquo;s new Tensor G6.
Google claims the new chip delivers 25% faster web browsing and 15% quicker app launches compared to the Tensor G5. The TPU also gets 50% more compute for AI workloads, while the Pro XL uses a vapour chamber to keep temperatures in check.
In my day-to-day use, the phone rarely gave me anything to complain about. I routinely had Chrome, Gmail, WhatsApp, Slack, YouTube, Google Photos and plenty of other apps running, with constant switching between them. Everything remained fluid, apps opened quickly and RAM management was particularly good. Even with around 30 apps sitting in memory, most returned exactly where I had left them.
Synthetic benchmarks are less flattering. The Pixel scored 1.79 million in AnTuTu, while Geekbench returned 2,091 and 5,095 in the single and multi-core tests respectively. Those are modest figures when you consider what other flagship processors are capable of.
The GPU shows the biggest gap. In the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme Stress Test, the best loop came in at 2,995, dropping to 2,061 at its lowest. Interestingly, stability was a decent 68.8%, so the Tensor G6 can sustain a reasonable proportion of the performance it starts with. Its GPU simply starts from a lower ceiling than its flagship rivals.
That doesn&rsquo;t make the Pixel a poor gaming phone. BGMI and Call of Duty Mobile both ran nicely during my casual gaming sessions, and I&rsquo;d happily play either on it.
It&rsquo;s only if mobile gaming is a major priority that the Tensor G6 becomes harder to recommend. For everything else I actually do with my phone, the Pixel 11 Pro XL feels fast, responsive and thoroughly flagship-grade.
<h2>Google Pixel 11 Pro XL Review: Software</h2>
What separates Google&rsquo;s latest AI features from many of the ones I&rsquo;ve tried recently is that I didn&rsquo;t have to remind myself they existed. Several naturally worked their way into how I used the Pixel 11 Pro XL.
Rambler is the best example. I dictate messages and notes fairly regularly, and it does much more than convert speech into text. It removes filler, sorts out punctuation and can turn a messy stream of thoughts into coherent sentences. I was particularly impressed by how well it coped with background noise and switching between languages.
Pixel Search became another regular shortcut. Instead of hunting through different menus, it provides one place to search for apps, settings and information stored across the phone and supported Google services.
Then there are Gemini&rsquo;s Proactive Suggestions. Gemini can recognise relevant information within supported apps and recommend what to do next. When a location appeared in a conversation, for example, it correctly offered to take me straight to Maps. It wasn&rsquo;t flawless, though, and struggled when I asked it to find an address buried in an email.
Live Translate proved more dependable. Once you download the appropriate language pack, translated captions can appear over supported videos, podcasts and voice messages.
All of this sits on top of Android 17, seven years of OS, security and Pixel Drop updates, and a clean interface without unnecessary duplicate apps. Pixel staples including Call Screen, Now Playing and Pixel Screenshots return as well.
There&rsquo;s a lot of AI here, but crucially, much of it feels designed to save me time rather than simply show me what AI can do.
<h2>Google Pixel 11 Pro XL Review: Battery</h2>
The 5,115mAh battery inside the Pixel 11 Pro XL is actually smaller than the 5,200mAh unit Google used in its predecessor, but that hasn&rsquo;t stopped it from delivering impressive endurance.
With my usual combination of WhatsApp, Chrome, social media, photography, YouTube and time split between Wi-Fi and 5G, I managed around seven hours of screen-on time after disabling the Always-On Display. Keeping it enabled reduced that figure to about four hours and 45 minutes. Google claims the phone can last beyond 30 hours.
I only wish charging matched that performance. Google advertises up to 75% in roughly 30 minutes with a compatible 45W PPS adapter, but a full charge took my unit close to two hours.
Wireless charging fares well, with Qi2.2-certified PixelSnap support delivering up to 25W. There&rsquo;s an Extreme Charging Mode available as well. Ultimately, battery capacity may have gone backwards on paper, but the actual endurance certainly hasn&rsquo;t.
<h2>Verdict: A Flagship I&rsquo;d Happily Keep Using</h2>
The best compliment I can give the Pixel 11 Pro XL is that after using it as my primary phone, there&rsquo;s very little about the overall experience I&rsquo;d want to change.
Its 6.8-inch display is superb, the speakers make watching content genuinely enjoyable, battery life comfortably handled my routine and the cameras remain a major reason to choose a Pixel. Tensor G6 also delivers excellent everyday performance, while Google&rsquo;s software and increasingly useful AI tools give the phone an identity that goes beyond specifications.
There are areas Google can improve. Charging was slower than I expected, HiLight could be far more versatile and Tensor G6 isn&rsquo;t going to satisfy someone buying primarily for hardcore gaming. None of those, however, stopped me from thoroughly enjoying the phone.
At ₹1,34,999, it faces plenty of excellent competition. Pixel 10 Pro XL users don&rsquo;t need to rush out and upgrade, but anyone considering a premium Android flagship should absolutely have the Pixel 11 Pro XL on their shortlist.

The Asus Zenbook Duo (2026) turns two gorgeous 3K OLED displays into a genuinely useful portable workstation, but its ₹2,78,990 price keeps it firmly in enthusiast territory.

Asus Zenbook Duo (2026) Review: The Dual-Screen Laptop That Makes Multitasking Better

<h3>Two 3K OLED screens, strong performance and a 99Wh battery make the Asus Zenbook Duo unlike most laptops.</h3>

Reviewing tech for a living means it takes something genuinely different for a laptop to get me excited. I&rsquo;ve used countless thin-and-lights, ridiculously powerful gaming machines and plenty of experimental form factors, so the novelty wears off pretty quickly. Somehow, though, the Asus Zenbook Duo still scratches that itch.
Now in its second generation, it remains one of those rare laptops that makes me want to experiment with how I use it, especially with that dual-screen setup.
Asus has also given it some meaningful upgrades this year. You get two 14-inch 3K OLED touchscreens, Intel&rsquo;s Core Ultra 7 355, 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM, a 1TB SSD and a huge 99Wh battery.
Our configuration costs ₹2,78,990, which makes this a seriously expensive machine. So, does the Zenbook Duo actually do enough to justify that price?
<h2>Asus Zenbook Duo (2026) Review: Design</h2>
With the keyboard attached, the Zenbook Duo could almost pass for a slightly chunky 14-inch laptop. Pull it away, though, and you suddenly have a completely different machine, with a second full-sized display underneath.
The keyboard connects magnetically using pogo pins, which also keep it charged. Detach it and the second display automatically switches on, while the keyboard moves over to Bluetooth. From there, you can stack both screens vertically, rotate the Duo for a book-style setup, use the second display flat, or go back to a conventional laptop layout.
I mostly stuck with the vertical setup. The built-in kickstand is reassuringly sturdy, and having two displays stacked wherever I was working became surprisingly addictive. The redesigned hideaway hinge helps too, reducing the gap between the screens by roughly 70 per cent while allowing the laptop to open completely flat to 180 degrees.
Despite all these moving parts, the Duo feels remarkably solid. The Ceraluminum chassis has a premium finish, while the Moher Gray colour keeps things understated. You also get MIL-STD 810H certification.
At 1.65kg, it certainly isn't the lightest 14-inch machine around, but considering you're effectively carrying two displays and a detachable keyboard, I found the weight perfectly manageable.
Connectivity is excellent too, with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, HDMI 2.1 FRL and a 3.5mm jack. Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 handle wireless connectivity.
<h2>Asus Zenbook Duo (2026) Review: Display &amp; Speakers</h2>
The two displays were easily among my favourite things about the original Zenbook Duo, and Asus has managed to make an already excellent setup even better this time around.
You get two identical 14-inch ASUS Lumina Pro OLED touchscreens, both with a 2880 x 1800 resolution, 16:10 aspect ratio and refresh rates of up to 144Hz.
And they look absolutely gorgeous. Colours have plenty of punch, blacks are wonderfully deep, and everything from text to high-resolution photos looks incredibly crisp. Crucially, I couldn't spot any meaningful difference in quality between the upper and lower panels, so moving content between them feels completely natural.
For creators, both displays cover 100 per cent of the DCI-P3 colour gamut and are Pantone validated. You also get VESA DisplayHDR True Black 1000 certification, with Asus claiming 500 nits during regular use and up to 1,000 nits for HDR content.
There's an anti-reflective coating that does a decent job of controlling reflections, although harsh outdoor lighting can still make visibility tricky. T&Uuml;V Rheinland and SGS Eye Care certifications are welcome additions too, especially when you're potentially staring at two displays all day.
The 144Hz refresh rate also makes a noticeable difference. Scrolling, animations and simply dragging windows between screens all feel beautifully smooth. Both panels support touch and stylus input as well.
Audio is another pleasant surprise. The six-speaker Harman Kardon-tuned system combines four woofers with two tweeters and supports Dolby Atmos. It gets properly loud without becoming muddy, while vocals remain crisp. There is some bass, although the tuning definitely favours vocals.
For serious multitaskers, though, those displays remain the Duo's killer feature. It's effectively a portable dual-monitor workstation without the hassle of carrying an external display.
<h2>Asus Zenbook Duo (2026) Review: Keyboard, Trackpad &amp; Webcam</h2>
The detachable keyboard is a huge part of the Duo experience. It snaps into place magnetically, charges through pogo pins, and automatically switches to Bluetooth when detached. I had no issues with connectivity during my time with it.
Typing is comfortable too, thanks to well-spaced keys and 1.7mm of travel, although the feedback does feel slightly mushy.
The large precision touchpad is responsive and supports edge gestures for adjusting brightness, volume and media controls. I expected them to be gimmicky, but ended up using them quite often.
You also get an FHD webcam with an IR sensor for quick Windows Hello logins. Microsoft Pluton and firmware TPM add another layer of hardware-level security.
<h2>Asus Zenbook Duo (2026) Review: Performance &amp; Software</h2>
Our Zenbook Duo gets Intel&rsquo;s Core Ultra 7 355 with 8 cores and 8 threads, alongside 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD. There&rsquo;s also an NPU capable of 50 TOPS, with Intel&rsquo;s integrated GPU handling graphics.
For everyday productivity, performance is excellent. I regularly had both displays packed with browser tabs, documents, Slack and other apps, and the Duo barely broke a sweat. Even with both screens in constant use, I never felt like the unusual setup was dragging performance down.
Creative workloads are where the Duo really comes into its own. Photoshop is fantastic on those colour-accurate OLED panels, but Premiere Pro is where the dual-screen setup really shines. I could keep my timeline on one display and move the preview, effects and other panels to the second. It genuinely feels like a portable editing workstation.
Performance holds up well too. Scrubbing through 4K 60fps footage with multiple effects and elements on the timeline was smooth, without any major hiccups. Thermals are equally well controlled, with the laptop staying comfortable during everyday use and heavier workloads.
Gaming, however, isn't its forte. Lighter titles are perfectly manageable, but the lack of discrete graphics rules out serious AAA gaming. GeForce NOW offers a neat workaround if you have a fast enough connection, particularly given those 3K 144Hz OLED displays.
On the software side, you get Windows 11 Home with Copilot+ features such as Recall, Live Captions and Windows Studio Effects. ScreenXpert makes managing apps across both displays much easier, while MyASUS handles updates, diagnostics and performance settings.
My main gripe is the bloatware. McAfee LiveSafe, Adobe offers and other bundled apps simply shouldn't be cluttering up a laptop costing nearly ₹2.8 lakh.
<h2>Asus Zenbook Duo (2026) Review: Battery &amp; Charging</h2>
Two 3K OLED displays running at up to 144Hz sounds like a recipe for terrible battery life. Thankfully, the Zenbook Duo surprised me here.
Asus has squeezed in a huge 99Wh battery, up considerably from the 75Wh unit in the previous generation. With medium to heavy usage and both displays regularly active, I consistently managed around 7 to 8 hours on a single charge.
That was enough for me to comfortably use the Duo as my primary work machine without constantly worrying about finding a power socket. For a laptop built around portable dual-screen productivity, that matters quite a bit.
The bundled 100W USB-C adapter handles charging, with a complete top-up taking around 90 to 95 minutes in my testing.
Given that it is powering two high-resolution OLED panels, the battery life Asus has managed here is genuinely impressive.
<h2>Asus Zenbook Duo (2026) Review: Verdict</h2>
At ₹2,78,990, there&rsquo;s no pretending the Zenbook Duo is affordable. But with laptop prices going slightly bonkers lately, that figure doesn&rsquo;t feel quite as outrageous once you consider what Asus is offering.
You&rsquo;re getting two excellent 14-inch 3K 144Hz OLED displays, strong performance, 32GB of RAM, 1TB of storage, solid build quality and a massive 99Wh battery. More importantly, the second screen actually changes how you work. I quickly got used to spreading research and documents across both displays or turning Premiere Pro into a genuinely useful dual-screen workspace.
There are compromises. At 1.65kg, it isn&rsquo;t particularly light, there&rsquo;s no discrete GPU, and the bundled bloatware feels especially unnecessary at this price.
Still, few laptops make me excited about experimenting with the form factor anymore. The Zenbook Duo does. It&rsquo;s expensive and definitely not for everyone, but for serious multitaskers who work on the move, this is one of the most interesting laptops you can buy.

Tecno Spark Go 3 Pro Review: Rugged Build, Battery Life & Performance

A rugged build, 5,200mAh battery and useful AI features make the Tecno Spark Go 3 Pro an interesting budget phone. Here’s how it performs in daily use.

Tecno Spark Go 3 Pro Review: Rugged Build Meets Everyday Essentials

The Tecno Spark Go 3 Pro offers a rugged build, dependable battery life and useful AI features, but its basic cameras, slow charging and lack of 5G limit its appeal.

Finding a value-for-money, no-nonsense budget phone these days feels like searching for a needle in a haystack. With recent market price hikes, most companies have quietly stripped away basic essentials just to protect their bottom line. So, when the Tecno Spark Go 3 Pro landed on my desk with a starting price of Rs.15,999, I was genuinely curious to see what Tecno had managed to pull off.
Rather than chasing pointless gimmicks or pretending to be a specification beast at its price, this phone focuses on surviving actual, messy daily life. I swapped my primary SIM into this handset for a full week, taking it through crowded commutes and endless calls, to see if it genuinely earns your money. Here is my breakdown of how it actually held up.
<h2>Unboxing &amp; Design</h2>
Opening the box threw me off in the best way possible. Right next to the 10W brick, a Type-C to Type-C cable, and the SIM ejector pin, Tecno has packed in a pair of wired Type-C earphones. They will not blow you away with deep bass or crazy volume, but with the retro trend of people ditching wireless buds and going back to wired earphones, seeing them included in the box earns Tecno some massive brownie points.
Pick the phone up, and it becomes obvious where <a title="Tecno Pova Curve 2 5G Review: The case for bigger batteries in slim phones" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/tecno-pova-curve-2-5g-review-the-case-for-bigger-batteries-in-slim-phones-1771573690938" target="_blank">Tecno</a> is drawing its inspiration from. Still, I think it looks sharp. The all-plastic rear has a neat matte texture that stayed fairly clean on my Eclipse Black unit, though you can also get it in Burgundy Red, Sunrise Orange, or Mist Silver. The real smudge magnet is the large rectangular camera island housing the lens and IR blaster, which has a glossy finish that picks up grease instantly.
The button placement feels natural. On the right, you get the volume keys and the power button, which also doubles as a snappy fingerprint scanner. Both offer good, tactile feedback. The left side houses the SIM tray with a dedicated microSD slot, while the bottom houses the Type-C port, microphone, and main speaker.
Tecno has also thrown in a second speaker on the top edge. Getting a genuine stereo speaker setup in this price tier is rare these days, especially after the recent market price hikes. Honestly, they sounded pretty loud and packed enough bass that I was not even expecting from a phone at this price.
The phone feels huge in hand, but at just 194g, the weight distribution is definitely balanced.
Where the phone truly shines is build toughness. This is the segment&rsquo;s first phone to come with IP69 and IP68 water and dust resistance, along with an SGS drop-resistance certification. With new budget rivals from brands such as Boltt entering the market, this rugged setup gives Tecno a massive edge. I did not toss it into an ocean or smash it onto concrete, but after handling it daily on my desk and during rough commutes, the chassis feels solid, dense, and built to survive accidental abuse.
<h2>Display</h2>
I spent a lot of time testing the 6.79-inch IPS LCD display. Right out of the gate, you cannot miss the chunky bezels. That bottom chin, in particular, stands out quite a bit, so every time I put on a film or a video clip, I was instantly reminded of the entry-level price tag. Still, I was really relieved that Tecno picked a modern centre punch-hole cutout for the front camera instead of sticking us with that tired old waterdrop notch.
Watching content felt fine for what the phone costs. Colours pop well enough on YouTube, and skin tones do not look overly washed out. You do not get HDR on YouTube, so, obviously, Netflix HDR is out of the picture too, but honestly, nobody expects that here. My main gripe came down to overall sharpness. Stretching an HD+ resolution (720 x 1526 pixels) across a huge 6.78-inch frame drops clarity down to about 260 PPI. Whenever I spent time reading long tech write-ups or news threads on Chrome, the edges around text felt noticeably soft and fuzzy.
Tecno claims a 120Hz refresh rate on paper. In my daily use, though, the UI mostly sat locked around 90Hz while jumping through apps and the home menu. Only a handful of screens ever pushed the 120Hz smoothness. That said, I did not run into any weird jitter, so simple feed scrolling still felt fluid enough under the thumb.
Outdoor legibility was where I struggled the most. The screen tops out at 580 nits in high-brightness mode. Sitting in my room or walking around under decent shade, visibility was never an issue. Step out under direct, blazing noon sun, though, and I found myself cupping my palm over the panel just to see directions on Maps or reply to a text. It gets the job done for casual indoor browsing, but you will definitely feel the pinch on bright, sunny days.
<h2>Camera</h2>
Let us be real here: you do not buy a phone at this price expecting extraordinary photo quality. The 13MP rear sensor on the Spark Go 3 Pro performs right in line with expectations. While numbers alone rarely show how a camera actually shoots, here, the 13MP tag tells you most of what you need to know.
During my outdoor daytime walks, it captured perfectly usable photos. Colours looked pleasant enough, and the shots work fine for quick Instagram Stories or snapping bills and documents. That said, if you are looking for crisp sharpness, rich dynamic range, or accurate skin tones, this setup will not wow you. Once the sun set, it really struggled. Streetlights suffered from heavy light bleeding, and darker areas quickly dissolved into soft, noisy patches.
The 8MP front camera gave me clear enough video calls on WhatsApp and decent quick selfies in bright rooms, but it stays strictly basic.
On the video side, both lenses let you record at up to 2K at 30fps. Standing still, it produces clear enough clips, but without proper stabilisation, any step you take turns the footage shaky.
At the end of the day, having wild expectations here would be unfair. It covers the bare essentials, and for the money, that is totally fine.
<h2>Performance</h2>
Tecno went with the MediaTek Helio G81 processor here. My review unit came with 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 64GB of internal storage, though there is a 128GB option floating around too. Tecno loves to slap a &ldquo;12GB RAM&rdquo; badge on its marketing, but you should know that 8GB of that is through virtual memory pulled from your storage. At its core, it is a 4GB RAM phone.
I ran both AnTuTu and Geekbench straight away. The scores were fairly basic, around 3 lakhs on Antutu, exactly what I expected from a chip in this bracket. Despite the low score, what actually surprised me was how smooth the phone felt in day-to-day use. Basic apps opened without long, painful loading pauses. I could jump between WhatsApp, my browser tabs, and YouTube without the system randomly choking or killing apps in the background.
Obviously, you are not buying a budget phone to play competitive titles. Casual games runs fine without hiccups. To see how much it could take, I downloaded BGMI and Call of Duty Mobile. Both titles were surprisingly playable for the first 10 or 15 minutes. Once I crossed the 20-minute mark, though, the phone started getting warm around the camera island, and frame drops had an impact on the gaming performance.
For everyday chores, scrolling through feeds, and light use, the overall speed works just fine.
<h2>Software, UI/UX &amp; AI Features</h2>
The phone runs on Tecno&rsquo;s HiOS based on Android 16, and right after setting it up, the heavy iPhone influence is hard to miss. From the lock-screen font styles and wallpapers to the text-selection pop-ups and translucent blur effects, it feels unmistakably<a title="iPhone 17 Review: Why the entry iPhone is now the one to get" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/iphone-17-review-why-the-entry-iphone-is-now-the-one-to-get-1759225187581" target="_blank"> iOS</a>-like. Still, navigating through the menus felt clean.
As you would expect in this price bracket, there are several pre-installed bloatware apps you will have to manually clean up. My bigger concern is software longevity. Tecno offers two years of security patches, but there&rsquo;s no word about any major Android OS upgrades. If you plan on holding on to this phone for three or four years and want fresh Android versions, that is something worth checking out.
What really caught me off guard was the AI toolset. A couple of years ago, most of these tricks were reserved for expensive flagships, so seeing them on a budget device is great. The Tecno AI suite gives you quick writing tools, AI caption generation, and contextual text suggestions. You also get Circle to Search and Google Gemini baked right in, which made looking up on-screen text and images quick and seamless.
Add in the AI noise cancellation that cleans up background traffic noise on regular calls, and the software offers far more practical daily utility than most rivals in this segment. But do not forget: it is a 4G phone.
<h2>Battery &amp; Charging</h2>
Battery life was easily my favourite part of using this phone. Sure, it does not touch the massive 7,000mAh packs we are starting to see floating around, but 5,200mAh is still huge for a phone this affordable.
With my normal mix of scrolling, YouTube streaming, and WhatsApp calls, it easily got me through an entire day without breaking a sweat. On lighter days, I even had enough juice left to carry over into the next morning. Now, if your screen time regularly crosses seven to eight hours, you will definitely be reaching for a plug before hitting the bed, but I never had to worry about it dying on me during my daily commute.
What really tested my patience was the charging speed. Tecno gives you a basic 10W charger in the box, and it is painfully slow. Juicing this big battery all the way from dead flat to 100 per cent took me nearly three hours. You basically have to plug it in overnight because quick daytime top-ups are out of the question.
That said, I am just glad Tecno actually gave us a power adapter in the box instead of making us buy one separately like the bigger brands do now. At this price, you cannot complain too much.
<h2>Final Verdict: Should You Buy It?</h2>
Living with the Spark Go 3 Pro for a week made one thing clear to me: you have to judge it for what it is, not what it is not. No, you will not be running heavy tournament matches on it, and the missing 5G tag might bother spec nerds.
Yet, for anyone pinching pennies, the trade-offs feel totally fair. Having real IP68 and IP69 certification at this price point is wild, and the battery simply refuses to die on a normal workday. I see this fitting right into the hands of college kids managing tight monthly allowances, folks stepping into Android for the first time, or even as a simple, durable gift for elderly parents who just need WhatsApp, YouTube, and loud calls. At Rs.15,999, it does the everyday basics surprisingly well.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 review: A lighter design, excellent displays, useful FlexWindow and solid battery life make this Samsung’s most polished clamshell yet.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review: Samsung’s Best Clamshell Foldable Gets Even Better

<h3>The Galaxy Z Flip8 is slimmer, lighter and more useful than ever, with excellent displays and solid battery life, though slow charging and performance throttling remain compromises.</h3>

Samsung&rsquo;s Flip phones have traditionally been the easier entry point into foldables. Instead of chasing the tablet-like experience of the Fold series, they took a familiar smartphone and made it smaller, more pocketable and considerably more fun.
The Galaxy Z Flip8 is perhaps the best execution of that idea so far. It is slimmer and lighter, packs more powerful hardware, and its FlexWindow has become useful enough that I could handle several everyday tasks without unfolding the phone.
But Samsung has complicated matters this year.
The new Galaxy Z Fold8 adopts a much more compact passport-style design, making the Fold experience considerably easier to live with. Having used both, the gap between Samsung&rsquo;s two foldable philosophies suddenly doesn&rsquo;t feel quite as wide.
That leaves the Flip8 facing an unusual question. It might be Samsung&rsquo;s most polished clamshell yet, but with the Fold8 stealing some of its compactness advantage, is the Flip still the more appealing foldable?
<h2>Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review: Design</h2>
There is very little about the Galaxy Z Flip8 that immediately separates it from its predecessor. Samsung has largely retained the same clamshell aesthetic, so the improvements here are less about how the phone looks and more about how it feels once you start using it.
Weight makes the biggest difference. The Flip8 comes in at 180 grams, compared to 188 grams for the Flip7, while its unfolded thickness has dropped to 6.1mm. Close it and you&rsquo;re looking at 13.1mm. Individually, these changes sound fairly modest, but together they make the phone noticeably more comfortable to carry. I especially appreciated the reduced heft when using it one-handed, while its compact footprint makes slipping it into a pocket remarkably easy.
The Armour FlexHinge has been improved too. When folded, both sides meet cleanly without leaving a gap, and the mechanism itself has a reassuring amount of resistance. It stays firmly in position at different angles, which makes Flex Mode particularly handy for taking photos, joining video calls or simply propping the phone up for a video.
Samsung has also continued its assault on the infamous foldable crease. It hasn&rsquo;t disappeared entirely, but it is now subtle enough that I stopped paying attention to it fairly quickly. You&rsquo;ll still spot it with the display switched off or under certain lighting, and your finger can detect it when scrolling across the centre.
Materials remain suitably premium. The frame uses Armour Aluminium, the exterior gets Gorilla Glass Victus 2, and IP48 protection provides some reassurance against dust and water. My Pink review unit also hid fingerprints surprisingly well, with Mint, Graphite and Cream completing the colour choices.
The side-mounted fingerprint scanner remains quick and conveniently placed. Connectivity covers USB-C 3.2 Gen 1, 5G, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC and eSIM.
It may look familiar, but the Flip8&rsquo;s physical refinements make a meaningful difference where it counts.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review: Displays</h2>
The FlexWindow has gradually evolved from a glorified notification panel into an important part of the Flip experience. On the Flip8, it measures 4.1 inches and uses a Super AMOLED panel with a 948 x 1048 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate and up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness. It is sharp, fluid and bright enough to remain perfectly usable outdoors.
More importantly, there&rsquo;s now plenty you can do without opening the phone. Notifications, quick settings, calendar appointments, weather updates, Now Brief and music controls are all accessible here, while Gemini works directly from the cover display. I frequently used the FlexWindow for quick replies, navigation and controlling music, although some apps still struggle to adapt properly to its unusual dimensions.
Open the Flip8 and you&rsquo;re greeted by a much more conventional 6.9-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel. It has a 1080 x 2520 resolution and an adaptive refresh rate ranging from 1Hz to 120Hz.
As expected from a Samsung flagship, there&rsquo;s very little to complain about. Colours look rich, contrast is excellent, HDR10+ content has plenty of impact, and visibility remains strong under bright sunlight. The elongated 21:9 format also works particularly well for reading and endlessly scrolling through social media.
Flex Mode adds another dimension by splitting supported apps between content and controls across the two halves. Interestingly, Samsung&rsquo;s passport-style Galaxy Z Fold8 doesn&rsquo;t offer the same feature. The crease, meanwhile, becomes surprisingly easy to overlook once the display is showing content.
Stereo speakers complement the screens nicely, offering good volume, clear vocals and respectable separation. Dolby Atmos broadens the presentation slightly, although bass remains limited.
Neither display needed a dramatic overhaul, and Samsung wisely hasn&rsquo;t forced one.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review: Performance</h2>
Samsung has equipped the Indian Galaxy Z Flip8 with its new Exynos 2600, a flagship chipset built on the 2nm process. It is accompanied by 12GB of RAM, with either 256GB or 512GB of speedy UFS 4.0 storage.
There&rsquo;s certainly no shortage of raw performance. The Flip8 managed 2,727,135 points in AnTuTu, while Geekbench 6 produced scores of 3,080 and 10,668 in the single and multi-core tests respectively. Away from benchmarks, that translates into a suitably slick experience. One UI runs smoothly, apps are quick to open and juggling multiple applications doesn&rsquo;t cause any noticeable slowdown.
The more revealing result comes from 3DMark&rsquo;s Wild Life Extreme Stress Test. Its strongest loop reached 7,094, but that figure eventually fell to 2,813, giving the Flip8 a stability score of only 39.6 per cent. In other words, peak GPU performance drops considerably once the phone is pushed continuously.
That&rsquo;s hardly surprising given the hardware Samsung is working with. When unfolded, the Flip8 is just 6.1mm thick, leaving precious little room for an extensive cooling solution. Throttling becomes necessary once enough heat builds up.
In practice, however, I didn&rsquo;t find this particularly troublesome. Games ran well, everyday performance remained consistently responsive, and those benchmark limitations rarely surfaced during normal usage.
The Flip8 isn&rsquo;t the phone I&rsquo;d choose for hours of sustained gaming or demanding workloads. But for its intended audience, there&rsquo;s easily enough performance here to deliver a flagship experience.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review: Software</h2>
The Galaxy Z Flip8 ships with One UI 9 on top of Android 17, bringing Samsung&rsquo;s familiar combination of extensive features and deep customisation. The interface remains easy enough to navigate despite everything packed into it, while Samsung&rsquo;s long software support gives the Flip8 another advantage for long-term ownership.
But One UI becomes far more interesting when you start using the FlexWindow. Straight out of the box, the cover screen handles notifications and offers widgets for weather, calendar, music and Now Brief. Gemini is available here as well, so simple questions and tasks can be handled without opening the phone.
Unfortunately, Samsung still doesn&rsquo;t let you freely run regular apps on the FlexWindow by default.
To do that, I had to download Good Lock from the Galaxy Store, install the MultiStar module, and then choose apps through its Launcher widget. None of this is particularly difficult, but it feels needlessly complicated for such an important part of the Flip experience. It&rsquo;s also something I&rsquo;ve complained about with previous generations, so seeing the same restriction again is frustrating.
Go through the setup, though, and the FlexWindow becomes significantly more useful. I could reply on WhatsApp, follow directions through Google Maps, browse Spotify and access several other apps without unfolding the Flip8. Not everything scales neatly to the compact display, but having that freedom makes a huge difference.
Galaxy AI adds the usual collection of photo editing, writing and translation features, alongside Now Brief.
One UI 9 is excellent overall. It&rsquo;s just baffling that Samsung still keeps the FlexWindow&rsquo;s best functionality tucked behind additional software.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review: Cameras</h2>
Camera hardware isn&rsquo;t where Samsung has spent its upgrade budget this year. The Galaxy Z Flip8 carries forward a 50MP f/1.8 primary camera with OIS, accompanied by a 12MP f/2.2 ultrawide and a 10MP selfie camera on the folding display.
Thankfully, the 50MP main camera remains dependable. In good light, it captures plenty of fine detail, handles highlights and shadows well, and delivers the saturated colours typically associated with Samsung&rsquo;s processing. Skin tones are handled naturally, while portrait mode produces convincing separation around subjects. Without a dedicated telephoto, the 2x crop becomes the only option for getting closer, and the results hold up surprisingly well.
Low-light performance is respectable too, although darker scenes expose some of the hardware&rsquo;s limitations. Fine textures become softer and noise starts creeping into shadow areas.
The ultrawide follows a similar pattern. Daylight results are good, with colour tuning that remains fairly close to the primary camera. Once lighting deteriorates, however, detail takes a more noticeable hit. Autofocus would have made this camera considerably more versatile as well.
Where the Flip8 gets genuinely interesting is how you can use these cameras. I particularly like turning the FlexWindow into a viewfinder and shooting selfies with the 50MP primary instead of relying on the 10MP inner camera. The improvement in quality is substantial.
Flex Mode effectively provides a built-in tripod for hands-free shots, while Camcorder Grip offers a dedicated Zoom Rocker. Super Steady&rsquo;s Horizontal Lock also helps keep moving footage level.
The sensors may be unchanged, but few conventional phones can match the Flip8&rsquo;s sheer shooting flexibility.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review: Battery Life and Charging</h2>
The Galaxy Z Flip8 retains the same 4,300mAh battery as the Flip7, which seems rather small by modern flagship standards. However, the efficiency gains from the 2nm Exynos 2600 help Samsung make surprisingly good use of that limited capacity.
With WhatsApp, social media, photography, YouTube, music streaming and occasional navigation thrown into the mix, I could comfortably make it through a working day. Most days ended with enough charge remaining that an evening top-up wasn&rsquo;t necessary.
Charging is where the Flip8 feels decidedly behind the curve. Wired speeds remain capped at 25W, with a full charge taking just over an hour during testing. You also get 15W wireless charging and Wireless PowerShare.
I would certainly prefer faster charging, but dependable all-day endurance is ultimately the more important win for a compact foldable.
<h2>Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review: Verdict</h2>
The Galaxy Z Flip8 isn&rsquo;t trying to reinvent Samsung&rsquo;s clamshell. Instead, almost every improvement is aimed at making an already successful formula better to use.
The slimmer, lighter body makes it more pocketable, both displays are excellent, performance is suitably flagship-grade, and battery life reliably lasts through the day. Its folding design also continues to give the familiar camera hardware capabilities that conventional phones simply cannot offer.
I particularly enjoyed using the FlexWindow, although requiring Good Lock and MultiStar to unlock regular apps still feels unnecessarily cumbersome.
At ₹1,24,999 for 12GB + 256GB and ₹1,44,999 for 512GB, the Flip8 is undeniably expensive. The 25W charging and performance throttling also leave room for improvement.
Its toughest competition, however, comes from the excellent Galaxy Z Fold8. But for anyone specifically looking for a compact clamshell foldable, the Flip8 remains Samsung&rsquo;s most accomplished effort yet.

Asus Pad T3201 review: Explore its 12.2-inch 144Hz 2.8K OLED display, Dimensity 8300 chip, battery life, performance and current India pricing.

Asus Pad T3201 Review: 144Hz OLED Display, Performance and Battery

The Asus Pad T3201 packs a 12.2-inch 144Hz 2.8K OLED display, quad speakers and a 9,000mAh battery. Here is how it performs in everyday use, gaming and multitasking.

Asus Pad T3201 Review: Is Its OLED Display Worth the Price?

The Asus Pad T3201 offers a stunning 144Hz OLED display, powerful speakers and reliable battery life, but dated software and limited multitasking hold it back.

Try shopping around for an Android slate in the ₹45,000 ballpark, and the monotony hits you immediately. It feels like every brand serves the exact same dish: metal casing, unremarkable LCD, and just enough silicon grunt to slide by. Asus wants to disrupt that playbook with the Pad T3201.
The star of the show sits right out front. Packing a 12.2-inch 144Hz 2.8K OLED screen into this price bracket makes you double-check the spec sheet. It originally landed on shelves at ₹43,990 for the 8GB + 128GB version. Right now, though, Asus India&rsquo;s own web store has slashed that base configuration to ₹35,990, with the 256GB step-up sitting at ₹38,990.
On paper, that panel at that price makes it an effortless recommendation for binge-watchers. Then again, a stellar screen does not automatically guarantee a great device. I spent three full weeks putting the Pad through its paces, jotting notes, streaming video past midnight, and carrying it everywhere to see if the rest of the experience actually keeps pace.
<h2>Design and Build Quality</h2>
Pulling the <a title="Asus Wireless Mouse MD105 Review: Comfortable Mouse for Everyday Work" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/asus-wireless-mouse-md105-review-comfortable-mouse-for-everyday-work-1790070644712" target="_blank">Asus </a>Pad out of the box, its in-hand feel immediately stood out. On paper, a 12.2-inch slab measuring 6.5mm in thickness and tipping the scales at 523g might seem hefty, yet the balance across the chassis is executed brilliantly. I routinely spent hours reading long-form articles in bed without dealing with any wrist fatigue or finger cramps.
The tablet comes exclusively in a Pure White finish. While pale gadgets usually attract grime, this one proved surprisingly resilient during my testing. Unlike dark slate slates that turn into greasy fingerprint magnets almost right away, this matte shell stayed remarkably neat. The texture feels soft to the touch, and the frame shows zero creaks or structural flex even when gripped firmly.
A major highlight here is the dedicated microSD slot with support for up to 1TB cards. For anyone carrying heavy offline media files or bulky work documents, expanding capacity without paying for a higher storage trim is a massive practical win.
Around the edges, you will find a snappy USB 3.0 Type-C port that can output video to an external display, though wired audio fans will have to do without a 3.5mm jack. My biggest daily gripe centers on security: Asus omitted a physical fingerprint reader entirely. The front-facing 2D facial recognition handles daylight reasonably well, but as soon as the sun sets, you are left manually punching in your passcode every single time.
<h2>Display and Audio Performance</h2>
Let&rsquo;s be honest: the primary reason to pick up this tablet is the display.
Up front sits a 12.2-inch tandem OLED touchscreen with a sharp 2.8K resolution and a fluid 144Hz refresh rate. It adopts a taller 3:2 aspect ratio, hits 100 percent DCI-P3 coverage, and pushes 600 nits in standard use alongside a staggering 2,000 nits peak HDR brightness.
It genuinely ruined other screens in this category for me. After reviewing countless bland LCDs in this segment, streaming movies here was a treat. Watching in dark rooms reveals perfect ink-like blacks, so letterboxing blends seamlessly into the shadows. You get zero backlight bleed around text, and the dynamic range gives visuals serious punch.
There is, however, one weird quirk worth noting. YouTube renders HDR clips with eye-searing brightness, yet Netflix failed to trigger HDR streaming during my time with the unit.
Even capped at standard dynamic range, movies looked far more vibrant than on competing slates. That taller 3:2 canvas also pays dividends for split-screen workflows and browsing web pages. You do get glare on the glossy glass under direct sunlight, but the backlighting has enough brute force to remain legible.
Sound output holds up its end of the bargain. The quad-speaker setup with Dolby Atmos sounds surprisingly full. Rather than the harsh, tinny noise typical of most mobile speakers pushed to high volumes, these deliver legitimate bass presence. Movie trailers retained crisp vocal tracks without drowning out meaty low-end rumbles during action sequences. For casual streaming around the flat, I almost never bothered pairing Bluetooth buds.
<h2>Performance and Gaming</h2>
Naturally, my biggest question going in was how the MediaTek Dimensity 8300 would fare under pressure. For day-to-day work, it never choked on me. I spent entire afternoons swapping between Slack channels, digging through messy research tabs, taking calls, and typing into Google Docs in split view. Everything ran as expected.
The synthetic runs paint an honest picture. In AnTuTu, the slate put up 1,678,161 points. Over on Geekbench 7, I clocked 1,132 in the single-core test and 4,006 on the multi-core pass. Putting it through the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme stress test yielded a high score of 3,068 with 90.8 per cent stability. Respectable tallies for web browsing and multitasking, but you definitely aren't getting flagship-grade muscle here.
Real gaming told a similar story. An hour-long session of Call of Duty: Mobile stayed consistently smooth, and the broad metal frame kept my hands from sweating. Try importing heavy 4K clips onto a video editing timeline, though, and you will run into stutter right away. Think of it as a dependable everyday machine, not a portable rig meant for competitive play or heavy production.
<h2>Software Experience</h2>
The software package is easily the weakest link on the Asus Pad. On the bright side, you get clean Android 16 right out of the box without annoying bloatware apps cluttering storage. The built-in Asus GlideX tool is genuinely handy, too. It let me pair the slate wirelessly as an extended laptop display, and dragging reference tabs over to the OLED panel worked like a charm.
Once you move past that, however, the UI feels stripped back. Even on modern Android 16, the iconography and layout look uninspired, almost like something out of an older tablet generation. More frustratingly, Asus skipped an official desktop mode and flexible floating windows. Anyone hoping to treat this 12.2-inch canvas like a mini laptop will find the rigid split-screen setup pretty limiting.
Future longevity is another sore spot. Asus has not spelled out its roadmap for OS version upgrades on this model, which makes holding onto it long term a bit of a gamble.
<h2>Battery Life and Charging</h2>
Keeping the lights on is a 9,000mAh pack. Lighting up a 12.2-inch 144Hz panel eats power, but the OLED layer does a solid job reining in unnecessary drain.
I put it through my usual daily grind of web reading, social feeds, typing docs, and two hours of video. Off the charger, it consistently gave me between 7.5 and 8.5 hours of screen-on time. That easily covers a full workday without battery anxiety, and it barely lost any charge sitting idle overnight.
Whenever it did tap out, the bundled 45W Type-C charger got it moving fast. Thirty minutes on the wire takes an empty battery to around 50 per cent, and hitting a full 100 per cent takes just about an hour and a half.
<h2>Cameras and Accessories</h2>
Let&rsquo;s face it, no one picks up a tablet expecting great photography, and the Asus Pad won&rsquo;t change your mind. Hardware is minimal here: a single 13MP shooter on the rear alongside a 5MP front lens. During my testing, the back lens handled the usual practical errands, mostly digitizing paper notes, grabbing textbook pages, and filing quick reference shots. The front camera gets the job done for routine Zoom calls, but bright light pouring in from my window blew out my skin tones immediately.
Asus wins points on retail packaging, though. Instead of forcing you to shop for protection right away, a foldable folio case comes straight out of the box. It folds into four useful viewing angles, sparing me from balancing the slab against a coffee cup while catching up on shows or jotting notes.
Touch input supports the Asus Pen 2.0 with 4,096 levels of pressure, but that stylus is sold separately. You won't find a first-party snap-on keyboard either, so anyone looking to type will need to pair a standard Bluetooth board.
<h2>Final Verdict: Should You Buy It?</h2>
After living with the Asus Pad for a few weeks, the conclusion is straightforward.
If you mainly want something for streaming movies in bed, browsing websites, and watching YouTube, the OLED display alone makes it worth every rupee. The infinite contrast, boisterous quad speakers, and expandable microSD slot make it a dream machine for video lovers. For pure content consumption, no rival LCD in the ₹30,000 to ₹40,000 range holds a candle to it.
Just don&rsquo;t purchase it hoping to ditch your laptop. The interface feels dated, true floating-window multitasking is missing, you get no first-party keyboard attachment, and future OS support remains an open question.
For sheer entertainment on the go, grab it without thinking twice. But if getting actual work done is the priority, look elsewhere.

Gadget Review

Vivo V80 review: Explore its 7,200mAh battery, ZEISS cameras, 144Hz AMOLED display, Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chip and real-world performance.

Vivo V80 Review: 7,200mAh Battery, ZEISS Cameras and More

The Vivo V80 combines ZEISS-tuned cameras, a huge 7,200mAh battery and a premium design, but its gaming performance and software have some limitations.

Vivo V80 Review: Excellent Cameras, Huge Battery, Real Compromises

The Vivo V80 pairs excellent ZEISS cameras and a huge 7,200mAh battery with a premium design, but gaming performance, bloatware and limited 144Hz support hold it back.

The Vivo V80 has some big shoes to fill. The V70 was one of those phones that got the fundamentals right: it looked premium, took flattering portraits, had the endurance people actually wanted and never felt as though Vivo had cut too many corners. It was easy to recommend, which makes this follow-up a much tougher proposition.
Vivo has clearly tried to move the series upmarket with the V80. Its cameras are more ambitious, the 7,200mAh battery is enormous, and the design, display and durability have all moved forward. The trouble is the price. At ₹62,999 for the 8GB/128GB model, it costs far more than the V70 did. That is a serious ask in a market where phone prices have climbed quickly. The V80 needs to prove that it is not merely a costlier V-series phone, but a genuinely better one for buyers willing to stretch.
<h2>Vivo V80 Review: Design</h2>
The Vivo V80 does not rewrite Vivo&rsquo;s V-series design language, but it feels more grown-up than its predecessor. I tested the Horizon Blue version, which shifts between pale blue and green in the light. It gives the phone personality without becoming flashy. Sunrise Anthem and Stellar Black are the other choices, but neither has quite the same quiet charm.
Vivo has used a flat rear panel with rounded corners and an aerospace-grade aluminium frame around its 6.59-inch display. At 203g and 7.69mm, the V80 is not a compact phone, yet it is more comfortable to hold than those numbers suggest. The frame does not dig into your palm, the buttons feel firm, and typing with one hand is perfectly manageable. Vivo calls this its Golden Grip size. It is a slightly silly name, but the ergonomics are genuinely good.
The rear is where Vivo has made the bigger visual statement. Its raised, rounded-square camera island, made using sculpted glass, is clearly influenced by the <a title="iPhone 17 Review: Why the entry iPhone is now the one to get" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/iphone-17-review-why-the-entry-iphone-is-now-the-one-to-get-1759225187581" target="_blank">iPhone 17</a> Pro series, even if it stops short of being a copy. The metallic rings around the lenses make the module look more polished, particularly when they catch the light.
Vivo has not confirmed the kind of glass used on the front. I reckon it is Schott glass given Vivo&rsquo;s past devices, but take that with a pinch of salt.
Protection is stronger than the slim profile suggests. Alongside IP68 and IP69 ratings, the phone has SGS Whole-Device Drop Resistance Certification. It is a pretty useful certification to have, although that does not mean that you'll skip using a case.&nbsp;
Connectivity is comprehensive too, with dual nano-SIM 5G, eSIM, NFC, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.4 and an IR blaster. The USB-C port is only USB 2.0, so large file transfers will take their time.
<h2>Vivo V80 Review: Display And Audio</h2>
The Vivo V80&rsquo;s display was one of the first things I noticed while using it. Its 6.59-inch AMOLED panel has a 2,750 &times; 1,260 resolution and a 459ppi pixel density, and that extra sharpness comes through in everyday use. I found text easy to read, even at smaller sizes, while photos and videos looked suitably crisp and colourful. There is enough room to watch something, reply to messages and keep another app open alongside it, without the phone becoming too wide or unwieldy.
Vivo advertises a 144Hz refresh rate, but there is more to the story. The regular interface is capped at 120Hz, and neither BGMI nor Call of Duty: Mobile would run at 144Hz when I tested them. It is possible that Vivo will add support for more games later, but that is not a feature I would factor into a buying decision today.&nbsp;
Thankfully, the V80 still feels very smooth at 120Hz. I had no complaints while scrolling through social media, switching between apps, or browsing longer articles.
I also spent a fair amount of time using the V80 outdoors, where its brightness really helped. Vivo quotes 5,000 nits of local peak brightness and 1,800 nits in high-brightness mode, and I could read the screen comfortably under a harsh afternoon sun.&nbsp;
The 1.07-billion-colour claim suggests 10-bit colour, though this is likely an 8-bit panel using FRC. Either way, the result looks good. Netflix and YouTube content has rich colours, strong contrast, and support for HDR10+ where available. At night, it can drop to 1 nit, which is far easier on the eyes.
The ultrasonic fingerprint scanner was quick and dependable for me, even with slightly damp fingers.
The balanced stereo speakers also did a good job with videos and games. They get loud, voices remain clear, and music has decent character. Bass is still limited, though, so do not expect miracles.
<h2>Vivo V80 Review: Cameras</h2>
The cameras remain the biggest reason I would consider the Vivo V80 over many phones in its price bracket. Vivo has fitted a 50MP Sony LYTIA 700V main sensor with OIS, a 50MP Sony IMX882 telephoto with OIS and 3x optical zoom, an 8MP ultra-wide, and a 50MP autofocus camera on the front. It is a proper, useful setup rather than one strong lens surrounded by filler, and ZEISS tuning gives the V80&rsquo;s photos a character of their own.
I particularly enjoyed shooting with the main camera in daylight. Its pictures have the contrast and lively colours that <a title="Vivo S2 Review: Massive Battery, Premium Design, Minimal Compromises" href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/gadget-review/vivo-s2-review-massive-battery-premium-design-minimal-compromises-1786105671836" target="_blank">Vivo </a>does so well, but they do not look wildly processed or artificial. Bright parts of a scene are handled sensibly, there is plenty of detail, and people do not come out looking as though their faces have been smoothed into plastic. Even when the light started to fade, the Aura Light proved useful for bringing some warmth and definition back into portraits.
The 3x telephoto is where the V80 starts to feel more special. It holds on to detail and colour much better than simply cropping in with the main camera, and I found myself using it regularly for people and tighter compositions.&nbsp;
ZEISS Multifocal Portrait offers focal lengths from 23mm to 100mm, which makes a genuine difference to how a portrait looks rather than merely changing the framing. The 85mm and 100mm settings were my favourites, giving subjects a cleaner separation from the background without the aggressive blur that often ruins software portrait modes.&nbsp;
The 10x Zoom-In Portrait mode is enjoyable too, although the 100x option is more about showing off than taking a photograph you will want to keep.
Night shooting is another area where the V80 performs well. The main camera keeps streetlights and neon from becoming a messy glow, while the telephoto delivers surprisingly clean zoom shots after dark.&nbsp;
The 8MP ultra-wide is the weakest of the four cameras, as expected, but it remains useful for landscapes and group photographs. Selfies, meanwhile, are sharp and flattering without taking away every trace of skin texture.
Video is well covered too. I shot walk-and-talk clips at 4K 60fps from both the front and rear cameras, and the footage was steady enough that I did not miss having a gimbal.&nbsp;
There are also Modern Movie, Vibrant and Pastel looks within 4K Cinematic Video, along with 30-plus AI Creative Camera styles, AI Diwali Portrait 2.0, Color Palette and Live Sticker Collage. AI Retouch can remove objects, expand an image, reposition subjects and improve resolution, but the cameras are good enough that these features never feel essential.
<h2>Vivo V80 Review: Performance</h2>
When I first saw that Vivo had used the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, I was prepared to be a little disappointed. At this price, it is not the processor people will be showing off in benchmark screenshots or using to win an argument online.&nbsp;
Once I started using the V80 as my regular phone, though, that concern mattered far less than I expected. It is not trying to be a gaming flagship, but it never gave me the sense that it was struggling to keep pace with the day.
I spent my time on the usual mix of WhatsApp, Chrome, Instagram, Maps, camera work and a little editing, often leaving several of those apps open at once. The V80 has 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 3.1 storage, neither of which is especially exciting on paper.&nbsp;
Still, apps generally stayed where I had left them, animations remained smooth and OriginOS did not turn basic multitasking into a chore. That is the sort of performance I care about more than a headline number.
The benchmark results are respectable rather than remarkable. My unit scored 1,233,489 in AnTuTu, while Geekbench 7 returned 980 in the single-core test and 3,267 in the multi-core test. Those figures line up with what I experienced: the V80 feels quick and capable, but it is not built to take on phones using proper flagship silicon. My Wild Life Extreme stress test told a similar story: 70.7 per cent stability, with scores dropping from 1,760 to 1,245. I would happily use the V80 for almost everything, but I would not buy it primarily to game.
I found the limits once I started gaming for longer. BGMI and Call of Duty: Mobile ran well enough, and I had no issues with shorter matches. The phone did get warm after an extended session, though, and performance was not quite as settled as it had been at the beginning. Vivo&rsquo;s 4,300mm&sup2; cooling system helps, but there is only so much it can do with a mid-range chip. Neither game currently uses the display&rsquo;s 144Hz mode either, but I wouldn&rsquo;t be too surprised if the developers or Vivo push out some sort of update to fix that.
<h2>Vivo V80 Review: Software</h2>
The Vivo V80 runs OriginOS 7 on Android 17, and it is one of the more pleasant parts of using the phone. I liked how quickly the interface settled into the background. Animations are fluid, menus are easy enough to find, and there is plenty of scope to change the look of the phone without turning set-up into a full-day project.
There are a few thoughtful features here too. Snap Note can turn scribbled handwritten notes or a whiteboard photograph into a cleaner note, a table, a chart or even a presentation. I would not use it to replace proper work, but it is genuinely useful when you are trying to make sense of an idea from a meeting.&nbsp;
The Wiggle Theme is a much lighter touch, though it gives the software some personality, while the connected-device features came in handy when I was moving between screens and devices during the day.
My biggest complaint is the bloatware Vivo still insists on adding. The phone is expensive, well built and otherwise feels properly premium, so opening it up to find unwanted games and recommendations is a frustrating first impression. Yes, most of it can be removed, but that misses the point. I should not have to spend my first few minutes cleaning up a ₹62,999 phone.
Vivo does redeem itself to an extent with six years of security updates. That is a meaningful commitment, especially for anyone planning to keep the V80 for more than a couple of years. Once I had removed the unnecessary extras, OriginOS became an interface I was quite happy to use every day.
<h2>Vivo V80 Review: Battery Life</h2>
Battery life is where the Vivo V80 becomes genuinely hard to fault. I used it for WhatsApp, Chrome, Maps, Instagram, camera work, YouTube, music and the occasional BGMI match, and it routinely took me through two days before I needed to think about charging. Even on heavier days, I usually had enough left to start the next morning without any anxiety.
That is more impressive because Vivo has managed to fit this 7,200mAh battery into a 7.69mm phone. Its fourth-generation silicon-carbon anode is doing some serious work here. Extended navigation and long camera sessions will naturally take their toll, but I never felt as though I had to watch the battery percentage.
Using the included 90W FlashCharge adapter, I got from zero to 100 per cent in around an hour and five minutes. That is not outrageously fast, but it is perfectly fair for a battery this large. A short charge before stepping out is usually enough to get you through a busy day.
<h2>Vivo V80 Review: Verdict</h2>
After using the Vivo V80, I came away impressed by how well its priorities fit real life. It is not the phone I would buy for benchmarks or marathon gaming, but it gets the everyday experience right. The body is slim, the display is excellent, the protection is reassuring and the battery comfortably lasts two days. Most importantly, it has cameras I kept wanting to use.
Portraits are the standout. I found the main camera dependable, the 3x telephoto genuinely useful and the different ZEISS focal lengths far more than a gimmick. The 50MP selfie camera and stable 4K 60fps video make it just as useful for holidays, family photographs and quick clips.
OriginOS bloatware, the limited 144Hz support and the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4&rsquo;s gaming ceiling are real compromises. Still, I would recommend the V80 to anyone who wants a stylish phone with excellent cameras and serious endurance.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 review covering its Core Ultra 5 processor, 16GB RAM, 15.3-inch display, battery life, performance and key limitations.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Performance, Battery & Display

The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 combines a Core Ultra 5 processor, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD and 15.3-inch display. Here’s how it performs in everyday use.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: A Practical Everyday Laptop

The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 offers solid everyday performance, long battery life and upgradeable hardware, but its display and integrated graphics limit its appeal for creative and demanding workloads.

Buying a laptop right now feels more complicated than it used to. Rising demand for memory and storage, driven partly by AI infrastructure, has pushed up component costs, making even mainstream laptops feel surprisingly expensive. That makes Lenovo&rsquo;s IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 an interesting proposition.
The version I tested comes with an Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD and a spacious 15.3-inch 16:10 display. Lenovo also talks up its Copilot+ AI capabilities, although I wouldn&rsquo;t consider that the biggest reason to pick this laptop.
What matters more is how well it handles the basics. For students and everyday users, a laptop needs to be reliable for work, browsing, video calls, studying and watching content. That&rsquo;s where the IdeaPad Slim 3i has to prove whether it offers enough performance and practicality without making you stretch your budget too far.
<h2>Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Design and Build Quality</h2>
The IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 takes a fairly simple approach to its design. You get a large 15.3-inch display, but Lenovo has tried to keep the overall package reasonably practical for everyday use. Measuring 343.4 x 239.5mm, it is understandably larger than most 14-inch laptops. However, the 16:10 aspect ratio gives you noticeably more vertical space, which I found useful while working with documents, spreadsheets and multiple windows.
At 1.63kg and between 16.9mm and 17.9mm thick, this isn't something I'd classify as an ultraportable. I could definitely feel it in my backpack once the charger and other accessories were added, although carrying it around during my daily routine wasn't particularly troublesome.
Lenovo has used aluminium for the lid and keyboard deck, while the bottom gets PC-ABS plastic. The Luna Grey finish keeps things understated, and the metal construction gives the laptop a more premium feel than its price might suggest. It doesn't look out of place in an office, classroom or coffee shop.
The overall build is fairly solid, but the hinge is one area that could use some work. There is noticeable screen movement when repositioning the laptop. Lenovo also says it has cleared 21 MIL-STD-810H tests, which is reassuring, but the hinge behaviour is something you'll notice during regular use.
<h2>Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Display</h2>
The 15.3-inch display is one of the more practical aspects of the IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11. Lenovo has gone with a 1920 x 1200 WUXGA IPS panel, running at 60Hz, with an anti-glare finish and up to 400 nits of claimed brightness. On paper, these aren't particularly exciting specifications, but they make sense for a laptop aimed primarily at work and everyday use.
What I appreciated most was the 16:10 aspect ratio. That additional vertical space might not sound significant, but it makes scrolling through long documents, reading articles and working with spreadsheets noticeably more comfortable. I could also keep two windows open without feeling like everything was unnecessarily cramped.
For watching YouTube, movies and shows, the screen is perfectly usable. The resolution looks reasonably sharp at this size, while the matte finish does a good job of reducing distracting reflections. The 400-nit brightness is also useful indoors, particularly near windows or under stronger lighting.
There are, however, some limitations. Contrast is fairly average, so blacks lack the depth you'd get from an OLED display. The 60Hz refresh rate is similarly basic, although I don't think it matters much for the kind of work this laptop targets.
The bigger limitation is colour reproduction. With just 45% NTSC coverage, this isn't a screen I'd recommend for professional photo editing, video grading or colour-sensitive design work. For productivity, browsing and casual entertainment, though, it gets the job done without much fuss.
<h2>Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Keyboard and Trackpad</h2>
Lenovo hasn't tried to reinvent the keyboard here, and that's probably a good thing. The IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 uses the company's familiar chiclet-style layout, complete with backlighting and a full-sized number pad. The keys have a slightly textured surface, which feels comfortable during longer typing sessions, while the decent key travel prevents the typing experience from feeling too shallow.
I generally type at around 75&ndash;80 words per minute, and I didn't need much time to adjust to this keyboard. The keys feel responsive without being overly stiff, making it one of the areas I enjoyed using the most on this laptop.
There is no fingerprint reader, which feels like a strange omission at this price point. However, the IR camera supports Windows Hello, so face-based authentication works well.
The trackpad is spacious and responsive, with accurate tracking and a satisfying click. Because Lenovo has squeezed in a dedicated number pad, the trackpad isn't centred on the chassis and instead lines up more closely with the spacebar. It looks slightly unusual initially, but I stopped noticing it after a while. Precision TouchPad gestures also work reliably for everyday navigation.
<h2>Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Connectivity, Camera and Audio</h2>
Connectivity on the IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 is fairly practical for everyday use. You get Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3, along with two USB-A ports, a USB-C port, HDMI 1.4, an SD card reader, a 3.5mm audio jack and Lenovo's traditional barrel-style charging port. The USB-C port also supports charging and DisplayPort 1.2, which adds some flexibility when connecting an external monitor. There is no Ethernet jack or WWAN support, though, so wired networking requires an adapter or dock.
I would have preferred a faster USB-C implementation or Thunderbolt support, particularly given how common high-speed peripherals have become. Still, for a typical setup involving a mouse, external drive, monitor or SD card, the existing selection should be enough.
The 1080p webcam is another useful inclusion. It comes with an IR sensor and a physical privacy shutter, allowing Windows Hello facial recognition for quick logins. I found this much more convenient than typing a password repeatedly. A fingerprint reader, however, is missing.
For audio, Lenovo has fitted two 2W stereo speakers with Dolby Audio, accompanied by dual-array microphones. They're perfectly adequate for video calls and casual viewing, although I'd still reach for headphones when listening to music or watching movies.
<h2>Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Performance</h2>
The IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 I tested is configured with Intel&rsquo;s Core Ultra 5 322, 16GB of DDR5-5600 memory and a 512GB PCIe Gen 4 SSD. This isn't a machine designed to compete with gaming laptops or workstation-class notebooks, but the hardware combination makes sense for the kind of everyday workloads most students and professionals are likely to throw at it.
The processor features six cores, split between two Performance cores and four Low Power Efficiency cores. It also includes an NPU capable of up to 46 TOPS, which qualifies the laptop as a Copilot+ PC. This brings support for newer Windows AI features such as Studio Effects, although I wouldn't make those capabilities the deciding factor when buying this particular laptop.
I particularly like Lenovo's approach to the memory configuration. You get 8GB soldered to the motherboard alongside an additional 8GB DDR5-5600 SODIMM, giving you dual-channel memory from the start. More importantly, the removable module leaves room for an upgrade. Swapping the existing 8GB stick for a 16GB module could take the total memory to 24GB when compatible modules become more affordable.
Storage is similarly upgrade-friendly. The 512GB SSD provides enough room for Windows, applications, documents and everyday media, while two M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 slots mean you can add another SSD later instead of having to replace the existing drive.
The benchmark results were also in line with what I'd expect from this configuration: 11,184 in Geekbench 7, 1,555 in 3DMark Time Spy, 1,654 in Cinebench multi-core, 393 in Cinebench single-core and 6,807 in PCMark 10.
More importantly, those numbers translated well into actual use. I had no trouble juggling browser tabs, research, writing, presentations, streaming, video calls and various office and messaging applications. The laptop feels responsive enough for regular work without constantly reminding you that you're using a budget-oriented machine.
Gaming is where the limitations become more obvious. The integrated Intel Xe graphics can handle lighter and casual games, but this isn't the laptop to buy for modern AAA titles. Cloud gaming services such as NVIDIA GeForce Now are a more practical route for demanding games. Similarly, anyone planning serious video editing, 3D work or other GPU-intensive workloads should look towards a machine with a dedicated graphics card.
<h2>Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Software</h2>
The IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 comes with Windows 11 Home Single Language, along with Microsoft Office Home 2024. Having a full Office licence included is a nice addition, particularly if you're buying this laptop for college or regular office work where Word, Excel and PowerPoint are part of the daily routine. Lenovo also throws in Microsoft 365 Basic for a year, which includes 100GB of OneDrive cloud storage among other benefits.
Windows 11 itself feels right at home on this hardware. The interface is familiar and easy to navigate, while features such as Snap Layouts are especially handy on the laptop's larger 16:10 display. I could comfortably arrange documents, browser windows and communication apps without constantly resizing everything.
The Core Ultra 5 322 also brings an NPU capable of running supported AI functions locally, making this a Copilot+ PC. During video calls, features such as Windows Studio Effects can handle things like background blur, automatic framing and eye-contact adjustments. These aren't features everyone will necessarily use, but having the hardware available means the laptop is better prepared for newer Windows capabilities.
I also appreciated that Lenovo hasn't overloaded the system with unnecessary pre-installed applications. The overall software experience remained clean, responsive and easy to live with during my testing.
<h2>Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Battery Life and Charging</h2>
The IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 packs a 60Wh battery and comes with a 65W round-tip power adapter. During my testing, I generally managed around 10&ndash;12 hours between charges, which is a respectable result for a laptop in this category.
My usage wasn't particularly light either. I spent most of the day switching between writing, web browsing, research, emails, documents, streaming and occasional video calls. With that kind of workload, I was comfortable leaving the charger at home on a regular workday. Naturally, more demanding tasks, extended video calls or running the display at higher brightness will bring that figure down.
The bundled 65W charger isn't exactly tiny, but it's manageable enough to throw into a bag when required. I also like the flexibility offered by the USB-C port, which supports Power Delivery at between 45W and 65W. That means you can use a compatible USB-C charger instead of always carrying Lenovo's proprietary round-tip adapter.
<h2>Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 Review: Final Verdict</h2>
At ₹1,09,990, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11 sits in a fairly competitive part of the laptop market. Rather than judging it purely by the Core Ultra branding, I think it's more useful to look at what you actually get as a complete package.
The configuration I tested brings together the Core Ultra 5 322, 16GB DDR5 RAM, a 512GB SSD and a spacious 15.3-inch WUXGA IPS display. It also has upgradeable memory and storage, useful connectivity and a design that's reasonably easy to carry around. The Copilot+ capabilities are an added bonus, although they aren't necessarily the reason I'd pick this laptop.
There are a few compromises. The IPS display's limited colour coverage makes it less suitable for professional creative work, while the integrated graphics clearly limits its appeal for demanding gaming and GPU-heavy applications.
For students, professionals and general users, however, the overall package makes sense. Just remember that the IdeaPad Slim 3i range includes several configurations, so it's important to check the exact specifications before buying. At this price, the specific configuration you choose will ultimately determine how compelling the package is.

The Xiaomi Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact offers quiet operation, useful smart controls and capable filtration, making it a strong first purifier for smaller rooms.

Xiaomi Mijia Air Purifier 4 Compact Review India: Price, Features And Performance

<h3>Xiaomi Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact is a quiet, affordable way to clean the rooms you actually use, whether it is a bedroom, study or home office.</h3>

Xiaomi has returned to India&rsquo;s air-purifier market under its Mijia smart-home label, launching the Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact alongside the larger Air Purifier 6. The 4 Compact is the entry-level model, priced at ₹7,999, but it does not feel like a stripped-down appliance.
That price is its biggest advantage. It gives first-time buyers a fairly low-risk entry into air purification, and it also makes a room-by-room approach possible. A purifier in the bedroom and another in the study is usually more useful than asking one machine in the hallway to solve every air-quality problem in the house.
<h2>Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact Review: Design and Set-Up</h2>
Xiaomi has gone for function over flair with the Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact. It is a compact white cylinder with a black touch panel sitting on top, measuring 22cm across and 35.5cm high. At 2.2kg, it is easy to place on a desk, side table or floor, and light enough to move to another room when needed.
A handle would have made it more convenient to carry around the house, but the low weight keeps this from being a serious omission. This is not a purifier you will struggle to lift.
The setup is equally uncomplicated. Remove the protective cover from the filter, connect the power cable and switch it on. It can be used straight away through the top panel. Xiaomi Home takes a few more minutes to pair, but the app is useful for settings that are not available directly on the machine.
Air is pulled in through the perforated lower section and pushed out from the top. This makes the placement rules fairly obvious: keep the lower vents and upper grille clear. The purifier will still run if it is wedged against a wall, but it will not be operating at its best.
At the rear, there is an opening for the particulate matter sensor. It should be kept clean, since the sensor feeds the Auto Mode and helps the purifier decide when to increase fan speed.
The touch controls include power, light adjustment and mode selection. Auto, Sleep and Manual each have their own indicator, alongside status icons. The light strip gives a quick read on the air it detects: green for 0&ndash;35, yellow for 36&ndash;75, orange for 76&ndash;150 and red beyond 150. It is simple, visible and useful from across a room.
<h2>Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact Review: Filtration</h2>
The Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact uses a cylindrical filter that combines three layers. There is a pre-filter for larger particles such as hair and household dust, a HEPA filter for finer matter, and activated carbon for odours. Air is pulled in through the bottom vents, passes through those layers and exits from the top.
Xiaomi rates the filtration system at 99.97 per cent for particles down to 0.3 microns. Its list includes dust, pollen, smoke and pet dander, while T&Uuml;V Rheinland Allergy Care certification gives it an added allergy-focused credential. For people who wake up with itchy eyes or spend half the morning dusting a desk, those are the claims that matter most.
Its particle CADR is 230m&sup3;/h, and Xiaomi advertises coverage of more than 400 sq ft. The small print is important here: the coverage calculation assumes two air changes an hour. The purifier can therefore be used in a larger room, but its size and airflow make it a more convincing pick for a bedroom, small living room, study or personal office. That is where it can keep working through the room&rsquo;s air at a more useful pace.
The activated carbon layer is the compromise. During an incense test, it made quick work of the visible smoke, but the fragrance stayed in the room much longer. The purifier is clearly better at removing particulate pollution than it is at clearing stubborn odours. Buyers who need help with smoke and pollen will be happier than those looking to neutralise heavy cooking smells.
Auto Mode is the sensible default. The onboard sensor responds to changing air quality and takes care of fan speed on its own. Sleep Mode switches off the display and is rated at 20dB. In everyday use, the purifier is quiet even outside Sleep Mode. With a ceiling fan on, I could not hear it from roughly two feet away.
Manual Mode lets you set the purifier&rsquo;s speed through Xiaomi Home. You can select Manual on the device itself, but any adjustment to its level happens in the app.
<h2>Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact Review: App &amp; Features</h2>
The Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact can be operated entirely from its top panel, so Xiaomi Home is optional. The app adds useful controls that make it more convenient.
Remote power control means you can start it before reaching home. You can also set timers, move between Auto, Sleep and Manual modes, and change display brightness. The child lock disables the buttons on the purifier, while notification sounds, device sharing, automation routines and firmware updates are also covered. Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa support are included too.
Manual Mode benefits most from the app. Xiaomi does not give you a row of numbered fan levels. Instead, you choose room coverage with a slider, and the purifier sets its speed to suit. Once saved, selecting Manual on the purifier brings that setting back without needing to open the app again.
Xiaomi Home does not present air-quality information particularly well. The purifier&rsquo;s main page shows a broad &ldquo;Good&rdquo; status, which is reassuring but offers little detail. The home dashboard can display a particulate reading in &micro;g/m&sup3;, though it is not carried through to the device page. There is no history chart either.
That makes Xiaomi Home useful for control and automation, but less helpful if you want to track how quickly the purifier has improved the room.
<h2>Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact Review: Living With It</h2>
The Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact works best in Auto Mode. Its sensor manages the fan, increasing speed when air quality worsens and reducing it once the room is back in shape. There is little reason to keep changing settings yourself.
Noise is one of its strengths. Xiaomi rates Sleep Mode at 20dB, and the purifier is quiet enough to keep beside a bed. You can also switch off the screen at night. Outside Sleep Mode, the fan is still well controlled. You will notice it at a higher speed, but it avoids the strained noise cheaper purifiers often make.
The 27W power rating makes it practical to leave running for long periods. Xiaomi estimates 24 hours of maximum-power use at roughly 0.7kWh. Everyday use on Auto should be lower again.
Changing the filter takes a minute. Twist open the base, slide the cylindrical cartridge out and fit a new one. Xiaomi Home gives filter-life reminders. The remaining question is replacement-filter cost and availability in India.
<h2>Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact Review: Verdict</h2>
The Mijia Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact is an easy first air purifier to recommend at ₹7,999. It is small enough to place almost anywhere, quiet enough for a bedroom, and happy to sit in Auto Mode while you get on with your day.
The three-layer filter, app controls and 27W rating make it more rounded than a basic budget purifier. It also suits homes that would rather use smaller purifiers in the rooms that need them than expect one large unit to handle everything.
The app does not show air-quality data particularly well, and the small carbon layer cannot tackle every strong smell. Filter cost and availability will matter over time, though Xiaomi says replacements will remain readily available during peak demand.
Those are manageable compromises. This is an affordable, quiet and capable way to bring cleaner air into the rooms you use most.

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 review: Excellent sound, reliable ANC, improved comfort and replaceable batteries make these premium TWS earbuds stand out.

Sennheiser’s Momentum True Wireless 5: Built To Outlast Most Premium Earbuds

<h3>The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 brings excellent sound, strong ANC and a rare repairability advantage, with replaceable batteries in both earbuds and the case.</h3>

Flagship TWS earbuds usually compete on a predictable checklist: stronger ANC, a new codec or a few extra app features. The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 has all of that, but its most important addition is far more practical. Both the earbuds and charging case use replaceable batteries.
The ₹29,990 MTW5 also brings Bluetooth 6.0, aptX Lossless, Dolby Atmos with head tracking, adaptive ANC, multipoint support and a claimed 40 hours of total playback.&nbsp;
Sennheiser has also made the earbuds smaller and more comfortable than their predecessors, while retaining the rich, detailed sound that defines the Momentum line. I found that combination particularly compelling. Premium earbuds are rarely built for long-term ownership, and the MTW5 gives buyers a credible reason to expect more from theirs.
<h2>Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 Review: Design &amp; Comfort</h2>
The Momentum True Wireless 5 is not a minor refresh. Sennheiser has reshaped both the earbuds and case around a smaller, more ergonomic form, and the difference is obvious once you put them in.
The earlier Momentum models I used were comfortable enough, but their larger shells were always noticeable. The MTW5 feels less intrusive. Its smoother housing and shorter nozzle sit more naturally in the ear canal, creating a secure fit without the pressure that can make earbuds tiring after an hour or two. I wore them through work, travel and longer viewing sessions without feeling the need to take them out.
Sennheiser supplies XS, S, M and L ear tips. Choosing the right one matters, as a proper seal improves comfort, bass response and noise cancellation while keeping the earbuds stable when you are moving around. With the right tips, the MTW5 stays firmly in place despite lacking wings or stabilising fins.
The case is slimmer and more pocket-friendly than earlier Momentum designs. It has a clean finish and looks suitably premium, although my unit had a small amount of play in the lid. It is not a dealbreaker, but it is something Sennheiser should tighten up at this price.
The earbuds carry an IP54 rating for dust and splash resistance. They should be fine with gym sessions, sweat and occasional rain, but the charging case has no similar protection.
Sennheiser's most important design decision is invisible: the batteries in both earbuds and the case can be replaced. The buds use small screws, the case uses one, and the process requires a tiny precision screwdriver and the included pry tool. The batteries are proprietary, so replacement pricing and local availability will be important to watch.
Even so, this makes the MTW5 unusual in the flagship TWS market. Most models become disposable once battery capacity declines. These offer a practical route to extending their usable life, and that gives the redesign much more weight than a cosmetic makeover.
<h2>Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 Review: Audio Quality</h2>
The Momentum True Wireless 5's strongest argument remains sound quality. Sennheiser uses 7mm TrueResponse drivers, and the result is a rich, composed signature that has enough punch for modern music without sacrificing clarity.
Bass is the immediate highlight. It extends low and gives electronic and pop tracks satisfying weight. Crucially, it does not spill into the midrange. On The Weeknd's Take My Breath and Radiohead's The National Anthem, the low-end drive remains present, but vocals and instrumental layers stay intelligible.
That control carries over to hip-hop and percussion-led tracks. KR$NA and Dhanda Nyoliwala's Boomshakalaka is a useful example. The kick has definition, the bassline has proper physicality, and the earbuds avoid turning the track into a thick, one-note thump. Sub-bass is substantial, while the mid-bass remains full and warm. The MTW5 is not basshead-tuned, but its low end has welcome authority.
The midrange is equally well judged. Vocals are clean and natural, while guitars and acoustic instruments retain a convincing sense of body. On Ghost's Mary On a Cross, individual layers remain clearly separated. I found that this was one of the MTW5's most appealing traits: busy songs do not collapse into the centre, and quieter recordings do not sound thin.
Treble performance is detailed and crisp. Pasoori by Ali Sethi and Shae Gill is particularly effective for judging this, as its strings, percussion and vocal inflections all remain easy to follow. There is occasional extra energy in the upper frequencies on brighter recordings, though, which can make the presentation a little sharp for sensitive listeners.
The Smart Control Plus app offers several ways to address that. Its EQ uses fixed bands rather than a fully parametric system, but a modest reduction smooths the sound without reducing its detail. Bass Boost, presets and Sound Personalisation are also available.
Dolby Atmos and head tracking are part of the feature set. Atmos can add scale to compatible films, but stereo remains the better music mode. It is more natural, cohesive and closer to Sennheiser's core sound signature.
<h2>Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 Review: ANC and Call Quality</h2>
The Momentum True Wireless 5 improves ANC where it matters most. It reduces persistent, low-frequency sound particularly well, softening traffic, bus engines, aircraft cabins, air conditioners and office fans to a far less distracting level.
Fit plays a major role. Once I found the right ear tips, the passive seal and adaptive ANC made the MTW5 especially effective for travel and work. It is also worth installing the latest firmware straight away. The review unit initially had some ANC issues, but they disappeared after the update.
Higher-pitched noise and nearby conversations are not removed completely, but they are softened enough that they do not constantly interrupt music or podcasts.
Transparency mode is well judged. It lets you hear an announcement or hold a quick conversation without removing the earbuds, and your own voice comes through clearly enough. Apple's AirPods Pro still offers a more natural effect, but the MTW5 remains a useful option for everyday awareness.
Calls are strong in quieter places. Sennheiser uses multiple microphones, beamforming, a bone-conduction voice sensor and AI processing to isolate speech. In noisier environments, surrounding sound is reduced effectively, although voice quality can become slightly processed when the system is under pressure.
<h2>Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 Review: Connectivity and Controls</h2>
The Momentum True Wireless 5 supports Bluetooth 6.0, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair and multipoint. Pairing with my work laptop and Google Pixel 11 Pro XL was quick, the connection stayed stable, and moving between the two devices was straightforward.
Codecs include SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX Adaptive and aptX Lossless. Compatible Android phones can access the advanced aptX options, while iPhone users are restricted to AAC and SBC, because of iPhone&rsquo;s codecs. That matters on paper, but sound remains the main attraction.
The Smart Control Plus app is well designed and easy to use. It lets you adjust ANC and transparency, manage connections, customise gestures, personalise sound, build location-based Sound Zones and use Find Headphones.
The ability to disable touch controls completely is particularly useful. It removes the annoyance of accidental taps when adjusting the earbuds, a smart everyday touch.
<h2>Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 Review: Battery</h2>
Sennheiser rates the MTW5 for 12 hours per charge with ANC off, six hours with it on and 40 hours with the case. Six hours with ANC is the relevant figure, and it is enough for commutes, most flights and a full workday.
I measured about 90 minutes for a full charge. A 10-minute top-up gives roughly one hour of listening, while USB-C and Qi wireless charging add welcome flexibility.
Its biggest battery benefit is repairability. Replace the ageing cells instead of replacing the earbuds.
<h2>Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5 Review Verdict: Should You Buy It?</h2>
The Momentum True Wireless 5 is Sennheiser's most complete flagship TWS package yet. It improves comfort, case portability, sound, ANC and app functionality.
Its real advantage is repairability. The batteries in the earbuds and case can be replaced, giving the MTW5 a long-term ownership case that very few premium TWS products can match. At ₹29,990, that matters as much as its audio quality.
There are a few caveats. Apple's AirPods Pro remains more natural in transparency mode, calls can become slightly processed in heavy noise, and the treble may need a minor EQ adjustment for sensitive listeners.
Those shortcomings do not alter the core verdict. If sound quality, comfort and the prospect of keeping your earbuds for years matter to you, the Momentum True Wireless 5 is an excellent premium choice.

Sony WH-1000XM6 long-term review: Outstanding ANC, richly detailed sound, strong battery life and a folding design that makes travel easier.

Sony WH-1000XM6 Long-Term Review: Still Worth It?

<h3>Months later, Sony&rsquo;s premium headphones still deliver incredible ANC, excellent sound and genuinely reliable battery life.</h3>

When I reviewed the Sony WH-1000XM6 for the first time, my conclusion was fairly straightforward: if noise cancellation mattered above everything else, these were the headphones to beat. Months later, that assessment has not really changed.
The XM6 still sound excellent. There is real weight to the bass without it overwhelming the mix, vocals come through with warmth and clarity, and busy tracks retain enough detail that you can still notice the smaller instruments and production touches. They work just as well for a long music session as they do for films, flights and the daily commute. More importantly, they remain headphones I actively want to use.
Sony&rsquo;s ANC is still among the finest you can get, while the transparency mode is genuinely useful rather than an afterthought. Battery life remains reassuringly strong, and the return of the folding design makes these far easier to pack than their predecessor.
There are, however, a couple of frustrations that have become clearer over time. The clamp is still a touch firmer than I would prefer, while my biggest complaint is oddly tied to the feature Sony does best: noise cancellation.
So, after months of use, are the WH-1000XM6 still worth nearly ₹40,000?
<h2>Sony WH-1000XM6 Long-Term Review: Design</h2>
After several months of commuting, flights and being repeatedly packed into bags, the Sony WH-1000XM6 have held up extremely well. The construction still feels reassuringly sturdy, and the folding hinges have not developed any looseness or creaking. That is particularly important here, given how often these are likely to be carried around.
At roughly 254g, the XM6 look a little more substantial than they actually feel. They are not featherweight, but they are far more manageable than Apple&rsquo;s AirPods Max. Put the two side by side and the difference is obvious: Sony&rsquo;s headphones are much easier to wear through a film, a long playlist or a workday.
The ear cushions have aged well too. They remain plush, sit comfortably around the ears and create a good seal before the active noise cancellation even gets involved. They do get warm after extended listening, but that is a familiar compromise with leatherette-style over-ear pads. Unless a headphone uses fabric cushions, some warmth is almost inevitable.
Sony also made the right call by reviving the folding mechanism. The XM5 were awkward to pack because of their fixed design, whereas these fold down neatly into the supplied case. The magnetic closure on that case is a small but genuinely useful touch.
Comfort is where the experience becomes less straightforward. The headband cushioning is fine, though the older XM4 still had the better-padded design. More noticeably, the clamp remains tighter than I would like. It may have eased slightly with use, but after a few hours, the pressure around my head is still hard to ignore.
<h2>Sony WH-1000XM6 Long-Term Review: Noise Cancellation</h2>
The WH-1000XM6 remain exceptional when it comes to active noise cancellation. Sony&rsquo;s QN3 processor and 12-microphone array make short work of the familiar low-frequency sounds: aircraft hum, air conditioners, traffic and the steady rumble of a train. What has impressed me more over time is their ability to reduce sounds that are less constant.
Conversations nearby, office keyboards, station announcements and the general chaos of a commute are all pushed much further away than you would expect. You are not placed in complete silence, of course, but the XM6 make it remarkably easy to focus on music, a film or simply your own thoughts.
Transparency mode is equally strong. It is Sony&rsquo;s most convincing effort yet, with voices sounding natural and environmental noise coming through clearly enough to have a quick chat without taking the headphones off.
There is one caveat, and it is a personal one. I remain sensitive to the pressure-like sensation created by aggressive ANC, and the XM6 have not changed that. The technology is outstanding, but anyone who finds ANC uncomfortable should try these before committing.
<h2>Sony WH-1000XM6 Long-Term Review: Sound Quality</h2>
Put on a good track and most of the WH-1000XM6&rsquo;s minor frustrations become much easier to forgive. Sony&rsquo;s tuning remains one of the most enjoyable in this category, offering warmth, solid bass and a level of detail that keeps music engaging across genres.
The low end is abundant, but it has better definition than the bass on the WH-1000XM4. It adds heft without becoming a shapeless thud, and that lets the rest of the track stay intact. Ghost&rsquo;s Mary on a Cross is an excellent showcase for this. The bassline has proper presence, yet there is still clarity around the vocals and instrumentation.
The same balance carries over to French Montana&rsquo;s Unforgettable and Swedish House Mafia and The Weeknd&rsquo;s Moth to a Flame. These are tracks where bass can easily dominate, but the XM6 retain enough separation for background textures and smaller elements to remain audible. With Arctic Monkeys&rsquo; Do I Wanna Know?, the headphones capture the dense weight of that signature guitar line while giving the drums enough force to make the song feel lively.
Sony also handles vocals very well. Adele&rsquo;s Rolling in the Deep and Skyfall sound clear, textured and controlled, without the higher notes becoming tiring. Arijit Singh&rsquo;s catalogue is similarly rewarding, as his vocals stay well placed in the mix without pushing the accompanying instruments too far back.
The XM6 are not only for music. They make films and shows more immersive too. Watching Dhurandhar 1 and Dhurandhar 2, I could pick up on background effects and ambient sounds that would often blur together on less capable headphones. Their soundstage remains fairly close and intimate, rather than vast. But given these are portable, wireless noise-cancelling headphones, the overall sound is outstanding.
<h2>Sony WH-1000XM6 Long-Term Review: Battery And Features</h2>
Sony&rsquo;s claimed 30-hour battery life with ANC enabled has held up well in everyday use. Even after months with the WH-1000XM6, charging is rarely something I need to plan around. They comfortably last through commutes, work sessions and travel, which is exactly what a premium pair of noise-cancelling headphones should do.
Fast charging is another real advantage. Sony says just three minutes of charging can deliver hours of playback, and it remains one of those features that proves its worth in a hurry. If you notice the headphones are low moments before leaving home, a brief top-up can be enough to get you through the day.
There are two areas where the XM6 feel less forward-looking. First is the battery. Given the price and the otherwise durable construction, a replaceable battery would have made a great deal of sense. The headphones are built well enough to remain usable for years, but like most wireless audio products, declining battery health will eventually limit their lifespan.
The second issue is USB-C audio. Sony retains the 3.5mm port, so wired playback is still possible when the battery dies. However, phones increasingly lack headphone jacks, while USB-C is now standard almost everywhere. Letting users connect via USB-C and listen without Bluetooth would have been a far more useful implementation.
<h2>Sony WH-1000XM6 Long-Term Review: Verdict</h2>
Living with the WH-1000XM6 for several months has not radically changed my view of them. It has simply made their strengths and weaknesses easier to understand.
Sony still delivers outstanding sound, phenomenal active noise cancellation and one of the best transparency modes in the business. Battery life remains excellent, the construction has proved durable, and bringing back the folding hinge makes these much more practical for travel than the XM5.
There are familiar limitations. The clamp remains firmer than I would prefer, while the ANC pressure effect can be genuinely unpleasant for those sensitive to it. USB-C audio should be present on headphones this expensive, and long-term battery replacement deserves more attention too.
Even so, the XM6 have earned their place in my daily rotation long after the review period ended. For anyone who wants exceptional ANC and richly enjoyable sound in one portable package, they remain a superb choice.

Redmi Note 17 Pro Max review: Xiaomi pairs a 10,000mAh battery, 100W charging and a Dolby Vision AMOLED display with extreme durability. Is it worth ₹49,999 in India?

Redmi Note 17 Pro Max Review: 10,000mAh Battery, Display And Performance Test India

The Redmi Note 17 Pro Max has all the ingredients of a standout phone. Its price makes the story more complicated.

There is a lot about the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max that feels excessive. Xiaomi has given it a whopping 10,000mAh battery, 100W charging and a 1.5K AMOLED panel with Dolby Vision and HDR10+. Durability is equally bonkers, with IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings, while the design manages to stand out from the usual mid-range crowd.
Curiously, performance is not one of those things.
Clearly, the priorities here are battery life, entertainment and longevity rather than benchmark supremacy or chasing ever-higher camera megapixel counts.
That becomes important once you see the prices.
The 8GB + 256GB model costs ₹49,999, while 12GB + 256GB takes that figure to ₹55,999. Having 256GB as standard is welcome, but ₹55-60K territory is ambitious for a phone powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5.
The question, then, is whether Xiaomi has spent that money wisely elsewhere. After using it, I have some thoughts.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Max Design: Built For A Rough Life</h2>
The first thing you notice about the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max is its size. At roughly 230g, this is a heavy phone, although its 8.6mm thickness is surprisingly reasonable when you remember there is a 10,000mAh battery inside.
Thankfully, it carries that weight quite well. The balance is good, and after using it for a couple of days, I found it reasonably comfortable despite the heft.
Visually, Xiaomi has kept the overall shape simple, with flat edges and a flat rear panel. The Secret Sunrise colourway, however, is anything but simple.&nbsp;
Under normal indoor lighting, the back looks predominantly off-white, with hints of cream. Step into sunlight and UV exposure activates the photochromic finish, bringing colours like red and orange, that give it an almost sunset-like appearance. Of all the available finishes, this would be my pick.
The construction itself is more ordinary. Both the frame and rear are polycarbonate, while Gorilla Glass Victus 2 handles protection up front.
Durability, though, is where things get ridiculous. Xiaomi has equipped the phone with IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings, alongside additional protection from prolonged water immersion and accidental drops. It should comfortably survive considerably rougher treatment than most mid-range phones.
The power and volume buttons sit on the right, while connectivity and extras include dual-SIM support, eSIM, USB-C, stereo speakers and Xiaomi&rsquo;s useful IR blaster.
There is one downside to that rear finish. While the smooth matte surface barely picks up fingerprints, it can feel surprisingly slippery in the hand.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Max Display: Made For Binge-Watching</h2>
If you spend a lot of time watching content on your phone, the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max has plenty going for it.
Up front is a massive 6.83-inch flat AMOLED panel, running at a 2772 &times; 1280 resolution, or 1.5K. It is a 12-bit display with a 120Hz refresh rate, while Xiaomi claims peak brightness can reach 3,500 nits.
Numbers aside, it looks fantastic. Text and images are incredibly sharp, colours are vibrant without appearing excessively saturated, and viewing angles leave little to complain about. Scrolling through apps and navigating the interface also feels wonderfully fluid at 120Hz.
This is not an LTPO display, though. Instead, the phone switches between predetermined refresh rates based on whatever is happening on screen.
Brightness is another strong point. I could comfortably use Maps, read messages and frame photos outdoors, even with harsh sunlight hitting the display directly.
The bigger advantage over the regular Note 17 Pro comes when you start streaming. Unlike its cheaper sibling, the Pro Max supports both Dolby Vision and HDR10+, with compatibility across major streaming services. Netflix and YouTube consequently look excellent, particularly with HDR videos where brighter highlights really stand out.
You also get 3840Hz PWM dimming, which should make the screen easier on the eyes at lower brightness.
Then there are the stereo speakers. They are extremely loud, and Xiaomi even includes a 400% volume boost. I would reserve that for emergencies, since clarity takes a hit when pushed that far. Keep things at sensible levels, though, and the speakers sound full and clear for films, YouTube and casual music.
Between the panel and speakers, content consumption is easily one of this phone&rsquo;s biggest strengths.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Max Cameras: Mostly A One-Camera Show</h2>
Xiaomi has for sure been a bit conservative with the cameras on the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max. There is a 50MP primary shooter with OIS, an 8MP ultrawide and a 32MP camera up front.
Most of the heavy lifting is done by that 50MP sensor. Give it enough light and you get sharp, detailed photographs with vibrant colours and solid dynamic range. Contrast can sometimes be a little aggressive, but the results generally look good straight out of the camera.
The main sensor also provides a 2x crop, which comes in handy for portraits and tighter compositions. Results hold up well outdoors, although finer details start getting softer as lighting deteriorates.
Interestingly, the primary camera remains quite capable after sunset. OIS certainly helps here, with the phone retaining a decent amount of detail while keeping colours fairly accurate. Bright light sources are handled reasonably well too, without highlights getting completely blown out.
Things are more ordinary with the 8MP ultrawide. Daylight shots offer respectable colours and dynamic range, but there is a noticeable drop in detail compared to the primary camera. Low-light conditions only widen that gap.
The 32MP selfie camera produces social-media-ready photos with pleasant skin tones and decent dynamic range, although the level of detail is not quite what the resolution might suggest.
For video, the main camera maxes out at 4K 30fps. Daylight footage looks good, but stabilisation could be stronger when recording while walking.
Ultimately, the cameras are reliable enough, but they are hardly the headline attraction here.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Max Performance: Consistency Over Raw Speed</h2>
The Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 is perhaps the clearest indication that outright performance was not Xiaomi&rsquo;s priority with the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max.
Paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage, this 4nm chip handles everyday workloads perfectly well. HyperOS runs smoothly, switching between apps is quick, and browsing, social media, streaming, photography and general multitasking rarely give the phone trouble.
Push it harder, however, and its mid-range positioning becomes obvious. My unit returned 1,024,566 points in AnTuTu v12. Geekbench 7 produced a single-core score of 960 and 2,997 in multi-core. Perfectly respectable, yes, but hardly numbers you would associate with a performance-focused Pro Max device.
What impressed me more was how consistently it maintained that performance. In 3DMark&rsquo;s Wild Life Extreme Stress Test, the best loop scored 1,199 while the lowest managed 1,192, giving the phone an excellent 99.4% stability score.
Gaming tells a similar story. BGMI is currently capped at 60fps, but gameplay within that limit was consistently smooth. I encountered no major stutters during my sessions, nor did temperatures climb to concerning levels.
For most people, there is enough performance here. Those chasing raw speed or high-frame-rate gaming can find considerably faster alternatives for similar money. The Note 17 Pro Max instead excels at maintaining the performance it can deliver.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Max Software: Familiar Xiaomi, Smarter Around The Edges</h2>
HyperOS 3 does not dramatically change how the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max feels to use, and that is not necessarily a bad thing.
Built on Android 16, the interface will immediately feel familiar to anyone coming from a recent Xiaomi device. There are redesigned system icons and some refreshed animations, but otherwise, Xiaomi has largely stuck with its established look. Everything runs smoothly too, with barely any noticeable hesitation when opening or switching between apps.
Hyper Island is the more obvious new addition. Essentially Xiaomi&rsquo;s answer to Apple&rsquo;s Dynamic Island, it uses the area surrounding the camera cutout to surface ongoing activities. Depending on app support, you can see things such as calls, timers, calendar events and media playback here. It is handy, although broader developer support will ultimately determine how useful it becomes.
AI features are scattered throughout the software as well. Gemini serves as the assistant, while Xiaomi HyperAI handles writing, transcription, translation, search, subtitles and even wallpaper generation.
Cross-device connectivity has also become considerably broader. Beyond Xiaomi&rsquo;s own ecosystem, HyperOS 3 now offers integration with Windows PCs, Macs, iPhones and iPads.
There is still some pre-installed clutter, and the interface can feel busier than cleaner Android alternatives. Fortunately, most unwanted additions can either be removed or ignored.
Long-term support is reassuring, with Xiaomi promising four Android OS upgrades alongside six years of security updates.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Max Battery: Charging Every Night Feels Unnecessary</h2>
A 10,000mAh battery sounds excessive until you actually start living with one. On the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max, it means charging your phone becomes something you simply do far less frequently.
Xiaomi uses a silicon-carbon battery here, and during my testing, two days between charges was comfortably achievable. That included my usual combination of calls, WhatsApp, scrolling through social media, watching YouTube, taking photos and squeezing in some gaming. Cut back on the heavier stuff and reaching a third day is entirely realistic.
Thankfully, replenishing such a massive battery does not require leaving the phone plugged in for hours either. With 100W HyperCharge, I managed to go from practically empty to fully charged in around an hour, which is seriously impressive for a 10,000mAh cell.
There is another useful trick too. The phone supports 27W reverse wired charging, so you can use that enormous battery to charge other devices when required, essentially turning the Pro Max into a power bank.
<h2>Redmi Note 17 Pro Max Verdict: The Hardware Is Good, But The Price&hellip;</h2>
The Redmi Note 17 Pro Max would be much easier to recommend if it simply cost less.
There is plenty to like here. The 10,000mAh battery comfortably lasts two days and can stretch into a third, while 100W charging keeps top-ups relatively quick. The 1.5K AMOLED display is excellent, the speakers get seriously loud, durability is impressive and six years of security updates adds some welcome longevity. Even the relatively modest camera setup proves dependable for everyday photography.
The problem is performance. The Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 runs everyday tasks smoothly and maintains its performance remarkably well, but ₹49,999 puts it against considerably more powerful hardware.
At least the base variant gives you 8GB RAM and a sensible 256GB of storage. The 12GB + 256GB version at ₹55,999 is much harder to defend, particularly when expectations for both performance and cameras rise considerably at that price.
So, while the Pro Max nails battery life, display quality and durability, its launch price works against it. I would wait for discounts before seriously considering one.
