Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Review: Slimmer, lighter, better in (almost) every way

<h2><strong>The Galaxy Z Fold 7 combines refined hardware with large, vibrant displays and smooth multitasking. It offers strong cameras and long software support, though the premium price&nbsp; may influence your decision.</strong></h2>

<p>When I reviewed the Galaxy Z Fold 6 last year, I walked away somewhat underwhelmed. It wasn&rsquo;t a bad phone, but it felt like yet another incremental upgrade. &nbsp;</p>
<p>The Galaxy Z Fold 7 changes that. It feels like a proper smartphone &mdash; one that just happens to unfold. Samsung&rsquo;s seventh-generation foldable is now lighter, slimmer, and easily its most impressive effort yet.</p>
<p>The ₹1,74,999 price tag is its biggest hurdle, but if you can stomach it, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 delivers an experience unlike anything else.</p>
<h3><strong>Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Design &amp; Build</strong></h3>
<p>The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is Samsung&rsquo;s slimmest and lightest foldable phone to date. When folded, it measures 8.9mm and unfolds to just 4.2mm thick. At 215g, it feels lighter in the hand than any Fold before it, and the difference is immediately noticeable. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>For context, it&rsquo;s now lighter than Chinese rivals like the Vivo X Fold5 and Honor Magic V5. It even undercuts the Galaxy S25 Ultra in weight and feels slimmer than many traditional flagships when closed. That&rsquo;s impressive for a device that still unfolds into a massive tablet.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The hinge has been reworked too &mdash; it&rsquo;s rounded off and glides more smoothly than before. There is, however, a touch of stiffness when unfolding. It feels deliberate, likely to improve long-term durability, but it&rsquo;s still something you notice.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The slimmer frame also makes it harder to slip my finger between the gap to open the phone. This became even more obvious when I tried the Vivo X Fold5, which is slightly thicker but noticeably easier to unfold.</p>
<p>Additionally, the phone has sharper corners this year, and the camera bump sticks out more than before. As a result, it wobbles excessively on flat surfaces.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Another side effect of the slimmer desgin is the removal of S Pen support. For power users, the loss of this signature productivity tool might sting, though for many others, it&rsquo;s a feature they likely wouldn&rsquo;t have used anyway.&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s debatable whether the trade-off is justified, but there&rsquo;s no denying that the Fold 7 is one of Samsung&rsquo;s most beautifully engineered devices yet. When closed, it resembles a sleek glass slab with ultra-thin bezels framing its expansive cover display . S</p>
<p>Samsung has also refined the frame, using its stronger Advanced Armor Aluminum to make it more durable than before. For protection, the back uses Gorilla Glass Victus 2, while the front gets a tougher Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 &mdash; a noticeable upgrade over last year.</p>
<p>The Fold 7 also holds on to its IP48 rating, which means it can keep out dust particles larger than 1mm and handle being submerged in water up to 1.5 meters deep for 30 minutes.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The rear glass has a smooth matte finish that does a decent job of keeping fingerprints at bay. This year, it comes in three shades: Blue Shadow, Jet Black, and Silver Shadow. The Blue &nbsp;unit I tested strikes a perfect balance between subtle and striking.&nbsp;</p>
<p>On the right side, you&rsquo;ll find a compact volume rocker and a power button that doubles as a fast, accurate fingerprint scanner. It also serves as a quick shortcut to trigger Gemini if you enable it.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Along the top edge, you get a speaker grille, several microphones, and a SIM tray that supports up to two nano SIM cards. The bottom edge packs in a second speaker, more microphones, and a USB-C port for charging and data transfer.</p>

<h3><strong>Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: Cover &amp; Inner Displays</strong></h3>
<p>Two displays are the bare minimum you get with a foldable, but for years it felt like Samsung figured out the inner screen while treating the outer one as an afterthought.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Z Fold 6 and earlier models didn&rsquo;t have the best track record here. The cover display was far too narrow, and typing on it felt cramped and awkward. That&rsquo;s no longer the case.</p>
<p>The Fold 7&rsquo;s larger 6.5-inch outer screen, combined with a new 21:9 aspect ratio, gives it a noticeably wider footprint and makes typing far more comfortable. It&rsquo;s still a Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with a 2,520 x 1,080 resolution, LTPO tech for a 1&ndash;120Hz refresh rate, and peak brightness that now tops out at 2,600 nits.&nbsp;</p>
<p>For the first time, the outer screen doesn&rsquo;t feel like a compromise. I could comfortably use it for quick replies or scrolling without needing to open the device.</p>
<p>But with the knowledge that there&rsquo;s now a massive 8-inch display (up from 7.6 inches) just one unfold away, I often found myself opening the Fold 7 to watch videos, check my emails, and review documents. That&rsquo;s the magic of a foldable done right.</p>
<p>On the specs front, the inner display remains as impressive as ever. It&rsquo;s a Dynamic AMOLED 2X LTPO panel with a resolution of 2,184 x 1,968, peak brightness of 2,600 nits, and an adaptive refresh rate ranging from 1Hz to 120Hz. However, there are two important changes worth noting.</p>
<p>First, Samsung has replaced the under-display selfie camera from the Z Fold 6 with a punch-hole cutout near the top of the right panel. This does break up the uninterrupted look of the screen, but like most punch-hole cameras, it quickly fades into the background during everyday use.</p>
<p>Second, the crease is nearly non-existent. You can still spot it when the display is off, but while using the phone, it&rsquo;s far less noticeable, and you can barely feel it when scrolling, which is a significant achievement.</p>
<p>Together, the outer and inner displays deliver a seamless experience. Both are sharp, vibrant, and bright enough to handle anything you&rsquo;re doing, whether indoors or in direct sunlight.</p>
<h3><strong>Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: Cameras</strong></h3>
<p>The Galaxy Z Fold 7 packs a triple rear camera setup with key upgrades. The main wide camera jumps from 50MP to 200MP, borrowed from the S25 Ultra, bringing a noticeable boost in image quality. The 12MP ultrawide now supports autofocus for detailed macro shots, while the 10MP 3x telephoto remains essentially the same.</p>
<p>In day light, the main camera takes excellent photos &nbsp;with &nbsp;good dynaic range. The phone still tends to oversharpen things, but colors are vibrant. Images are captured at 12MP by default but for those who want to maximize resolution, you can select the phone's full 200MP mode . At night, the Fold 7's shots remained surprisingly sharp with &nbsp;accurate white balance.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The 3x telephoto lens delivers noticeably sharper and clearer shots than before, though image quality starts to drop once you push past that optical range.</p>
<p>Portrait shots come out well too, with accurate edge detection and a pleasingly soft background blur, especially when using the 3x telephoto lens. The ultrawide lens is the weakest of the three. It&rsquo;s decent for landscapes but suffers from visible edge distortion.&nbsp;</p>
<p>As for the front cameras, both the inner and outer displays use 10MP sensors that deliver detailed, good-looking selfies. The 10MP punch-hole camera on the inner screen replaces last year&rsquo;s 4MP under-display sensor and takes noticeably sharper looking shots.</p>
<p>Video quality on the Z Fold 7 is the best I&rsquo;ve seen on any foldable so far. Footage is crisp, vivid, and detailed, and watching it back on those large, high-res displays feels especially satisfying.</p>
<p>Samsung&rsquo;s new ProVisual Engine also steps things up with always-on 10-bit HDR+ for richer colors, improved contrast, and better subject focus. The phone can shoot in 8K at 30fps, but I preferred sticking to the smoother and more practical 4K at 60fps.</p>
<h3><strong>Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: Performance &amp; Battery</strong></h3>
<p>The Galaxy Z Fold 7 delivers flagship-level performance without breaking a sweat. It&rsquo;s powered by Qualcomm&rsquo;s Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage for blazing-fast read and write speeds.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In day-to-day use, the Fold 7 feels as fast and fluid as any Snapdragon 8 Elite device. It handled heavy multitasking with ease, keeping dozens of Chrome tabs open and multiple apps running without a hitch.</p>
<p>The device stayed cool under normal use, only warming slightly during demanding sessions of Genshin Impact &mdash; and even then, performance remained consistent with no signs of throttling.</p>
<p>Of course, all that power means battery life becomes even more important. Unfortunately, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 still relies on the same 4,400mAh &nbsp;cell as the Fold 6.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In a three-hour streaming test over Wi-Fi, running the main screen at full brightness, the Fold 7 dropped from 100 percent to 82 percent. That&rsquo;s a slight improvement over last year&rsquo;s Fold 6, which hit 78 percent in the same test, likely thanks to the improved efficiency of the Snapdragon 8 Elite. Still, battery life here is decent, not exceptional.</p>
<p>Charging speeds don&rsquo;t do much to impress either. The Fold 7 supports up to 25W wired charging and 15W wireless, which feels underwhelming for a 2025 flagship.</p>
<p>It gets to 50 percent in about 30 minutes with a wired charger, though you won&rsquo;t find one included in the box. As with other Galaxy devices this year, it&rsquo;s Qi2 ready but lacks the built-in magnets for attaching accessories like wireless chargers or battery packs.</p>
<h3><strong>Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: Software &amp; AI</strong></h3>
<p>The Galaxy Z Fold 7 debuts with Samsung&rsquo;s latest One UI 8 on top of Android 16. It&rsquo;s also backed by a promise of seven years of OS and security updates, which is one of the best software support commitments you&rsquo;ll find on any phone right now.&nbsp;</p>
<p>One UI 8 brings a wave of refinements and new features to Samsung&rsquo;s core apps. The Calendar app now splits Events and Reminders into separate tabs for smoother navigation.</p>
<p>My Files gets a redesigned Categories section with refreshed icons, while Reminders sports a cleaner layout and updated visuals. Even the Gallery app adds a Private Album for sensitive photos along with a subtle icon refresh.</p>
<p>The Fold 7 also brings back all the signature multitasking features that make Samsung&rsquo;s foldables stand out. Flex Mode lets you prop the phone up and use it like a mini laptop for hands-free tasks. DeX mode transforms it into a desktop-style interface when connected to a larger screen.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Edge Panel offers quick access to your favorite apps and app pairs, while a persistent dock ensures your most-used tools are always within reach. You can run up to three apps side by side, with a fourth floating on top as an overlay for even more productivity.&nbsp;</p>
<p>AI is front and center on Samsung&rsquo;s latest phones, and the Fold 7 is no exception. Gemini Live gets a serious upgrade this year with real-time visual search. Using AI Mode, you can point your camera or share your screen and let Gemini analyse what&rsquo;s in front of you. It can offer outfit feedback, break down what you&rsquo;re seeing, or even help you interact with on-screen content.</p>
<p>Circle to Search has been improved too. You can now use it mid-game to get quick tips or learn more about characters and enemies without leaving the action.</p>
<p>One of the handiest new additions is Side-by-Side comparison in generative editing mode. As the name implies, it lets you view a photo next to its original while making changes, so you can compare edits in real time with zero hassle.</p>
<h3><strong>Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Review: Verdict&nbsp;</strong></h3>
<p>The Galaxy Z Fold 7 isn&rsquo;t just Samsung&rsquo;s best foldable yet. It&rsquo;s the first one that feels like it&rsquo;s finally living up to the promise of this form factor. It&rsquo;s slimmer, lighter, and more polished in ways that matter.</p>
<p>The wider cover screen makes it feel completely natural to use when closed, while the expansive inner display has become my favorite way to watch movies and juggle multiple apps. Best of all, Samsung didn&rsquo;t sacrifice camera quality to get here.</p>
<p>That said, it remains a wildly expensive phone, and the lack of S Pen support could disappoint longtime Fold users. Battery life and charging speeds also leave room for improvement. Still, even with those caveats, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 feels like a huge leap forward for Samsung &mdash; a foldable that finally lives up to its big ambitions.</p>

Samsung’s Z Flip7 brings a bigger outer screen, a thinner hinge, and smarter AI tools. With the Exynos 2500 chip and sleeker design, it’s a stylish upgrade—but the chipset and IP48 rating may leave power users wanting for more.


Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 ASMR unboxing & first look: Chic style with fun vibes

Samsung’s Z Flip7 brings a bigger outer screen, a thinner hinge, and smarter AI tools. With the Exynos 2500 chip and sleeker design, it’s a stylish upgrade—but the chipset and IP48 rating may leave power users wanting for more.

<h3 data-start="616" data-end="848"><strong>The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 is here with a new cover display, Exynos 2500 chip, AI features, and a slimmer hinge. Priced from ₹1,09,999 in India, this stylish foldable brings big upgrades to the clamshell game. Here&rsquo;s our first look.</strong></h3>

<p>Samsung&rsquo;s flip phone game just got a major glow-up. The Galaxy Z Flip7 may look familiar at first glance, but a closer look reveals this clamshell is much more polished than its predecessor. From its redesigned cover display to a slimmer profile and a new AI-powered software experience, the Flip 7 is here to flex both style and smarts.</p>
<h2><strong>Unboxing experience</strong></h2>
<p>For a premium foldable, the unboxing is a little too basic. The matte black square box feels like a slightly bulked-up Galaxy S-series package. There&rsquo;s no real colour cue on the box, no standout branding&mdash;it&rsquo;s all very minimal. Inside, you get the Flip 7 already unfolded with protective film on the screens, which is honestly the most satisfying part. A thin envelope tucked in the lid holds the paperwork, SIM tool, and a USB-C to C cable. That&rsquo;s it. No charger, no extras.</p>
<h2>Hardware, cameras, and all things AI</h2>
<p>On the inside, you get a 6.9-inch full-HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X foldable display and a 4.1-inch Super AMOLED cover screen outside&mdash;both supporting 120Hz refresh rates and up to 2,600 nits peak brightness. The outer screen has been upgraded from that old folder-style layout to an edge-to-edge panel, and it&rsquo;s protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Under the hood, it&rsquo;s powered by Samsung&rsquo;s own Exynos 2500 chip, paired with 12GB RAM and up to 512GB of storage. You also get Android 16 and One UI 8 out of the box.</p>
<p>Beyond the sleek look, the Z Flip 7 packs a solid 4,300mAh battery, Armor Aluminium frame, and a redesigned Armor FlexHinge that&rsquo;s thinner and tougher. It also brings IP48-rated protection.</p>
<p>For cameras, you&rsquo;ve got a 50MP wide primary sensor and a 12MP ultrawide shooter on the outside, and a 10MP selfie cam inside. Samsung&rsquo;s ProVisual Engine kicks in with AI tools like Note Assist, Live Translate, Circle to Search, and Now Bar/Brief for extra smarts&mdash;right from the cover screen.</p>
<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>
<p>As for pricing, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 starts at ₹1,09,999 in India for the 12GB + 256GB variant, while the higher-end 12GB + 512GB model is priced at ₹1,21,999. It&rsquo;s available in Blue Shadow, Coral Red, Jet Black, and Mint&mdash;the last one being a Samsung India website exclusive. Pre-orders are live, and early buyers can snag the 512GB model at the price of the 256GB version.</p>

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 goes ultra-slim, but can it beat the durable and bright Vivo X Fold5? We compare design, performance, displays, and cameras to see which foldable flagship delivers the better experience in India in 2025.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 vs Vivo X Fold5: Which foldable flagship wins in 2025?

<h3 data-start="907" data-end="1148"><strong>Samsung brings speed and polish with the Z Fold7, while Vivo goes all-in on display brightness and durability with the X Fold5. So, which one should you pick? We find out.</strong></h3>

<p>Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 or Vivo X Fold5&mdash;which foldable is better? Let&rsquo;s find out!</p>
<h2><strong>Design</strong></h2>
<p>The Galaxy Z Fold7 is Samsung&rsquo;s slimmest foldable yet&mdash;just 8.9mm folded and 215 grams. It feels impressively sleek and lighter in the hand. The hinge is sturdier and smoother this year, though there&rsquo;s a bit of stiffness when you unfold it&mdash;probably to make it more durable. But that camera bump sticks out more now, so there&rsquo;s a noticeable wobble when it&rsquo;s on a table. Still, with Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 protection on the outer screen and an Advanced Armour Aluminium frame, this Fold feels solid.</p>
<p>Vivo&rsquo;s X Fold5 is slightly thicker&mdash;9.2mm folded&mdash;but it&rsquo;s built like a tank. You get IPX8, X9, X9+ water resistance, along with IP5X-like dust protection, and it can even handle minus 30&deg;C cold. I actually preferred unfolding the Vivo&mdash;it&rsquo;s smoother, and the extra thickness gives you a better grip. With the Samsung, I was always a little worried it might slip out of my hand.</p>
<h2><strong>Displays</strong></h2>
<p>When it comes to screens, Vivo throws the first punch. Its 8.03-inch LTPO AMOLED is ridiculously bright at 4500 nits, with Dolby Vision for cinematic HDR. Even the cover screen hits 5500 nits.&nbsp;<br>Samsung fights back with its 8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X, which is vibrant and smooth at 120Hz, but maxes out at 2600 nits. The big news here is the outer display&mdash;it&rsquo;s now wider and feels like a proper smartphone screen.</p>
<h2><strong>Performance &amp; Software</strong></h2>
<p>On the performance front, Vivo packs the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3&mdash;still powerful, but the same chip from last year&rsquo;s X Fold3 Pro. Samsung steps it up with the Snapdragon 8 Elite and custom Oryon cores. It&rsquo;s faster, more efficient, and even the benchmarks back it up.</p>
<p>And software-wise, Vivo&rsquo;s Funtouch OS 15 is improving but Samsung&rsquo;s One UI 8 is still the king for foldables, with smoother multitasking and 7 years of updates.</p>
<h2><strong>Cameras</strong></h2>
<p>For cameras, Samsung brings a 200MP main sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide, and a 10MP 3x telephoto, plus 10MP selfie cameras on both the cover and inner displays. Vivo counters with its triple 50MP ZEISS setup for the main, ultra-wide, and 3x periscope telephoto lenses. &nbsp;Vivo&rsquo;s optics deliver punchier colours and sharper details across all cameras&mdash;especially on zoom shots. I mean&hellip; yeah, it&rsquo;s ZEISS.</p>
<h2><strong>Verdict</strong></h2>
<p>Ultimately, Samsung is thinner, faster, and its software is unmatched. But Vivo fights back with insane durability, a brighter, more cinematic display, and better versatility in cameras. If you want power and polish&mdash;go Samsung. But if you want toughness and better screens&mdash;go Vivo.</p>

The Vivo X Fold 5 brings serious foldable energy with a super-slim design, flagship-grade AMOLED displays, Zeiss-powered triple cameras, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 performance, and 6,000mAh battery—all packed into a lightweight, premium package.

Vivo X Fold 5 Unboxing & First Impressions: Slimmer & Sharper

<h3 data-start="551" data-end="781"><strong>The Vivo X Fold 5 is here with an ultra-slim design, stunning displays, and Zeiss-powered triple camera set up. At ₹1,49,999, it&rsquo;s aiming to be the most refined foldable of 2025&mdash;and it&rsquo;s off to a strong start.</strong></h3>

<p>Foldables might no longer be a novelty, but let&rsquo;s be real&mdash;most of them still feel like work-in-progress. Not this one. The Vivo X Fold 5 doesn&rsquo;t just look the part&mdash;it feels like a foldable that finally gets it. It&rsquo;s slick, confident, and surprisingly practical.</p>
<p>Priced at ₹1,49,999 for the 16GB + 512GB variant, the X Fold 5 is clearly aimed at the premium crowd. It&rsquo;s available in just one colour&mdash;Titanium Grey&mdash;but don&rsquo;t let that name fool you. This thing looks like stunning, something straight out of a sci-fi flick.&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>A premium unboxing experience</strong></h2>
<p>The box sets the tone before you even see the phone. Vivo&rsquo;s gone for a bold, square black box with a raised circular design right at the centre&mdash;mirroring that massive rear camera module. There's some tasteful Zeiss branding, too, giving you a little heads-up that this phone&rsquo;s camera game isn&rsquo;t messing around.</p>
<p>Inside, you get the phone itself, an 80W fast charger, USB-A to USB-C cable, SIM ejector tool, documentation, and a surprisingly nice snap-on case with a faux-leather finish. No extra fluff, but nothing&rsquo;s missing either. It's a clean, premium unboxing that doesn't overdo it&mdash;but still makes you feel like you just bought something special.</p>
<h2><strong>Design: Foldable, but make it finesse</strong></h2>
<p>Here&rsquo;s where Vivo really flexes. Foldables are usually chonky, but the X Fold 5 is rewriting the rules. When folded, it&rsquo;s 9.2mm thick. Unfold it, and you're holding a slab that&rsquo;s just 4.3mm thin&mdash;skinnier than most regular phones. And weighing just 217g, it&rsquo;s also one of the lightest foldables around.</p>
<p>That Titanium Grey back panel catches the light in all the right ways, and the subtle gold ring around the camera module adds a touch of class. The frame is crafted from Armor Aluminium, there&rsquo;s Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the back, and Vivo even added Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 on the cover display.&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Display: Ultra-bright, ultra-smooth</strong></h2>
<p>When it comes to screens, Vivo isn&rsquo;t playing around. The main display is an 8.03-inch LTPO AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and Dolby Vision support. It hits an insane 4500 nits of local peak brightness. You also get a 6.53-inch cover display with 120Hz refresh and 5500 nits brightness, so even outdoors in blinding sunlight, this phone&rsquo;s readable. Both panels are T&Uuml;V Rheinland-certified for eye comfort and come with Zeiss Master Colour calibration out of the box.</p>
<p>The bezels are practically invisible, and the resolution, tack sharp. This is flagship display tech with foldable flair&mdash;and we&rsquo;re here for it.</p>
<h2><strong>Performance: Flagship muscle&nbsp;</strong></h2>
<p>Under the hood, the Vivo X Fold 5 runs on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. It&rsquo;s still a powerhouse, but worth noting&mdash;it&rsquo;s the same chip Vivo used in last year&rsquo;s X Fold 3 Pro. That said, paired with 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of superfast UFS 4.1 storage, there&rsquo;s no shortage of speed. Whether it&rsquo;s multitasking, editing videos, or running multiple apps on split-screen, this phone handles it all like a boss.</p>
<p>Vivo&rsquo;s Funtouch OS 15, layered on top of Android 15, also feels more refined than ever. It&rsquo;s smoother, better optimised, and a lot less clunky than earlier versions. With foldable-friendly tweaks built in, this software finally feels like it belongs on a premium device.</p>
<h2><strong>Cameras: Zeiss-powered triple threat</strong></h2>
<p>This is where Vivo goes full beast mode. The X Fold 5 packs three 50MP sensors on the back&mdash;main, ultrawide, and 3X periscope telephoto. All three come with OIS, and thanks to Zeiss optics, image quality is sharp, detailed, and punchy. Whether you're zooming in or going wide, the colours pop and the detail holds up.</p>
<p>For selfies, you get 20MP shooters on both the inner and outer screens, so whether you&rsquo;re snapping pics open or closed, you're covered.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Bottom line? The X Fold 5&rsquo;s camera setup isn&rsquo;t just &ldquo;good for a foldable&rdquo;&mdash;it&rsquo;s solid across the board.</p>
<h2><strong>Battery + durability: All-day champ with serious protection</strong></h2>
<p>Battery life comes from a hefty 6,000mAh setup, and it charges fast&mdash;80W wired and 40W wireless.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Vivo&rsquo;s not holding back when it comes to durability. The X Fold 5 is IPX8, IPX9, IPX9+ rated for water and also comes with IP5X-like rating for dust, so it can take on splashes, rain, and dust without flinching.</p>
<h2><strong>Early verdict</strong></h2>
<p>Most foldables still come with asterisks&mdash;great screens but bulky, strong cameras but average battery, flagship design but clunky software. The Vivo X Fold 5 feels like it&rsquo;s checked off all the boxes. It's lightweight, powerful, and camera-savvy.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s definitely not cheap, but if you're in the market for a premium foldable that feels future-ready, this might be a solid and promising option.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Alright, we&rsquo;ve got three very different phones battling it out&mdash;the Vivo X200 FE, OnePlus 13S, and Oppo Reno 14 Pro.&nbsp;</p>
<p>From powerhouse performance to killer cameras, each brings something unique. I&rsquo;ve tested them all to see which one really deserves your money.&nbsp;</p>
<p>So let&rsquo;s get right into it&hellip; but real quick, don&rsquo;t forget to smash that subscribe button.</p>
<h2><strong>Performance</strong></h2>
<p>Let&rsquo;s start with performance because these three phones are totally different beasts. The Vivo X200 FE runs on the Dimensity 9300+, the Reno 14 Pro has the Dimensity 8450, and the OnePlus 13S flexes with the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite.</p>
<p>I expected the OnePlus 13S to crush the others at least in benchmarks&mdash;and it did.&nbsp;</p>
<p>On Antutu, the 13S scored a massive 2.4 million, leaving the Vivo at 1.9 million and the Reno 14 Pro at 1.6 million. Look at the CPU and GPU scores and you will see why.</p>
<p>But here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s really interesting&mdash;the Vivo&rsquo;s temperature spiked by 16.5 degrees Celsius, the highest of the three. So yeah, it needs better cooling or optimisation.</p>
<p>Next up, the 3DMark WildLife Extreme test. OnePlus owned this again with top scores and 69.6% stability. Oppo was close at 68.7%, but Vivo lagged at 53.6%, throttling way more under heavy gaming than the Reno.</p>
<p>Now the CPU throttle test was really interesting. OnePlus had the best stability at 76%, beating Vivo&rsquo;s 66% and Oppo&rsquo;s 67%. But surprisingly, OnePlus had the lowest max and average scores. Vivo had the best performance despite lower stability.</p>
<p>Now, let&rsquo;s talk gaming&mdash;that&rsquo;s more in line with real-life performance.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Both the OnePlus 13S and Vivo X200 FE support 90fps gaming, but OnePlus uses some clever software tricks for gaming. In a quick 10 min match in BGMI we had an average of 120.5fps, maxing at 121fps. The 5% lows were at 120fps, so gameplay was insanely smooth. Plus, it stayed cool at 36.8 degrees, which is solid for long sessions.</p>
<p>Vivo wasn&rsquo;t far behind, averaging 89.2fps with 5% lows around 86.6fps. The gameplay was smooth but it ran hotter, hitting 40 degrees.</p>
<p>Reno 14 Pro is capped at 60fps but nailed a stable 59.5fps average and kept temps low at 36.4 degrees. So while it&rsquo;s not the fastest, it&rsquo;s reliable.</p>
<p>If gaming&rsquo;s your priority, OnePlus and Vivo clearly bring the heat. But what about cameras?</p>
<h2><strong>Cameras</strong></h2>
<p>Starting with the Vivo X200 FE &mdash; it&rsquo;s packing a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 50MP 3X periscope telephoto with OIS, and an 8MP ultrawide.</p>
<p>The OnePlus 13S keeps it simple &mdash; a 50MP main with OIS and a 50MP 2X telephoto. Oh, and a 32MP selfie cam.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Oppo&rsquo;s Reno 14 Pro goes full beast mode &mdash; all three cameras, main, ultrawide, and 3.5X telephoto, are 50MP. Even the selfie cam is a 50MP!</p>
<p>Now, I was a huge fan of the Vivo X200 Pro, so I had high hopes for the 200 FE.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In daylight, all three impress. Vivo&rsquo;s shots pop with contrast, Reno keeps it natural, and OnePlus sits nicely in between. But when it comes to shadows and detail, Vivo pulls ahead.</p>
<p>Low light sees Vivo&rsquo;s colours staying the most natural. OnePlus tends to overexpose, while Reno holds steady.</p>
<p>The lack of an ultrawide on OnePlus hurts. Between Vivo and Oppo, Vivo&rsquo;s is better&mdash;Oppo struggles with flare and softness.</p>
<p>Portraits on OnePlus&rsquo;s 2x telephoto give creamy bokeh but average edge detection. Vivo and Oppo do better here, with more natural skin tones and bokeh.</p>
<p>For video, all shoot 4K 60fps. OnePlus and Reno boost colours, Vivo keeps it true-to-life. Vivo also handles low light best.</p>
<p>Selfies see Vivo nailing colour accuracy, while Oppo and OnePlus go punchier.</p>
<p>So, if you want point-and-shoot simplicity, Reno&rsquo;s your pick. For control and features like Zeiss filters and Aura lighting, Vivo takes the crown. OnePlus offers the least versatile camera setup but its main camera is surprisingly good.&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Design, display &amp; everything else</strong></h2>
<p>When it comes to design, the OnePlus 13S and Vivo X200 FE are both compact, with glass builds and aluminium frames. But the 13S feels more premium thanks to its soft, velvety finish&mdash;though it has the weakest IP rating here.&nbsp;</p>
<p>If you want a bigger screen and louder design, the Reno 14 Pro is the obvious choice, and it also offers better dust and water resistance than the others.</p>
<p>Battery life is where Vivo pulls ahead. The X200 FE packs a 6,500mAh cell with 90W charging, easily lasting a day and a half. The Reno 14 Pro, however, is the only one here to offer wireless charging at 50W, while the other two skip it entirely.</p>
<p>For software, OnePlus and Oppo take the lead with OxygenOS 15 and ColorOS 15 offering a smoother, cleaner experience than Vivo&rsquo;s FunTouch OS.&nbsp;</p>
<p>OnePlus also wins with its update commitment of 4 years of major Android updates and 6 years of security patches. Vivo isn&rsquo;t far behind at 4+5 years, while Oppo trails slightly with 3+4 years, though there&rsquo;s still conflicting information about that.</p>
<h2><strong>Verdict</strong></h2>
<p>Honestly, picking between these three isn&rsquo;t easy. The OnePlus 13S is the better choice for gaming, but Vivo isn&rsquo;t far behind and delivers a stronger camera setup that often outshines the Reno 14 Pro.</p>
<p>For me, the Vivo X200 FE comes out on top overall with its balance of performance and imaging power.&nbsp;</p>

Infinix Hot 60 5G+ is turning heads under ₹11K with its sleek design, Dimensity 7020 chip, 120Hz display, 50MP cam, and 90fps gaming chops. Budget-friendly never looked or played this good.

Infinix Hot 60 5G+ First Impressions: A budget phone, with boss energy

<h2><strong>The Infinix Hot 60 5G+ nails the basics and then some&mdash;Dimensity 7020 chip, 90fps gaming, 120Hz display, and solid battery life, all under ₹11K. It looks sharp, runs smooth, and might just be the new budget champ.</strong></h2>

<p>Infinix is back with another wallet-friendly phone, and the Hot 60 5G+ is here to turn heads. Priced under ₹11,000, this device is giving serious bang for your buck, especially with how much it packs in both looks and performance.</p>
<p>Let&rsquo;s start with the design. At just 7.8mm thick and weighing 193 grams, the Hot 60 5G+ feels surprisingly premium for the price. The Tundra Green variant looks especially sharp, with copper accents around the camera module giving it a classy finish. Even though it has a plastic back, the phone feels rock-solid in the hand&mdash;definitely doesn&rsquo;t scream &ldquo;budget.&rdquo; There&rsquo;s also IP64 protection, and a handy dedicated shortcut button adds a nice touch.</p>
<p>Under the hood, the phone runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7020 chipset, paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage (expandable up to 2TB). Infinix even promises up to 90fps in popular games like BGMI, which is wild at this price point.</p>
<p>On the front, you&rsquo;re looking at a 6.7-inch HD+ IPS LCD panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. It&rsquo;s not AMOLED, but the high refresh rate makes scrolling and gaming smooth enough for everyday use.</p>
<p>The phone runs on XOS 15 based on Android 15, and comes with Infinix&rsquo;s own AI tools and the Folax personal assistant baked in.</p>
<p>Camera-wise, you get a 50MP main sensor on the back and an 8MP selfie shooter up front. There&rsquo;s no OIS or autofocus on the front, but it gets the job done for casual snaps.</p>
<p>The battery is a solid 5,200mAh with 18W fast charging and 10W reverse charging&mdash;something you rarely see at this price. Oh, and yes, there&rsquo;s a 3.5mm headphone jack too.</p>
<p>All things considered, the Infinix Hot 60 5G+ is looking like a total steal for under ₹11K. Solid build, decent power, smooth screen, and gaming chops? This might be the new budget king.</p>

Samsung’s 2025 foldables bring serious upgrades. The Fold7 gets slimmer, lighter, and packs a 200MP camera, while the Flip7 now flaunts a brighter edge-to-edge cover screen, bigger battery, and new AI tricks

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold7 and Flip7 flex hard but that price tag...still hurts

<p data-start="628" data-end="863">Samsung's Fold7 and Flip7 are here with sleeker builds, brighter displays, powerful processors, and new Galaxy AI tricks. The Fold gets a 200MP camera, while the Flip goes all-in on selfies with Gemini Live baked right into the camera.</p>

<p>Samsung&rsquo;s back with its 2025 foldable refresh, and this time, the upgrades aren&rsquo;t just skin-deep. The Galaxy Z Fold7 and Z Flip7 are leaner, smarter, and packed with new AI tricks&mdash;but they also come with some serious price tags.</p>
<h2><strong>Galaxy Z Fold7: Slimmer, lighter, and now rocking a 200MP camera</strong></h2>
<p>The Fold7 is the thinnest and lightest Fold yet&mdash;just 8.9mm when shut and 4.2mm open, weighing 215 grams. The cover screen is now a slightly bigger 6.5 inches, while the inside unfolds into a massive 8-inch AMOLED display.</p>
<p>Samsung&rsquo;s also upped the camera game with a wild 200MP main sensor, backed by a 12MP ultra-wide and a 10MP telephoto lens. The battery remains at 4,400mAh, so expect similar usage time as last year. Under the hood, you&rsquo;re getting Qualcomm&rsquo;s new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, so performance should be smooth across the board.</p>
<h2><strong>Galaxy Z Flip7: Brighter cover screen, bigger battery, and AI flex</strong></h2>
<p>The Flip7 is all about subtle polish. It&rsquo;s super slim at 6.5mm when open, and the outer screen is now a proper edge-to-edge 4.1-inch AMOLED with 120Hz refresh and an eye-searing 2,600 nits peak brightness. Flip it open and you&rsquo;re looking at a larger 6.9-inch main display.</p>
<p>Camera-wise, there&rsquo;s a 50MP main and 12MP ultra-wide setup. The real star, though, is the new AI feature&mdash;Gemini Live&mdash;baked right into the camera app to help out during selfie videos.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s powered by Samsung&rsquo;s own Exynos 2500 chip, which the brand promises is finally ready to impress. Still, we&rsquo;ve all seen Exynos fumble before&mdash;so fingers crossed.</p>
<h2><strong>The Price</strong></h2>
<p>The Fold7 will set you back ₹1,75,000, and the Flip7 lands at ₹1,10,000. These are big upgrades, no doubt. But whether they&rsquo;re big enough to justify that kind of spend? That&rsquo;s still up for debate.</p>

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold7 and Flip7 get major upgrades—but the new Flip7 FE steals the spotlight

<h2><strong>Fold7 and Flip7 are back, looking sleeker than ever&mdash;but the big surprise? Samsung&rsquo;s new Flip7 FE, a more affordable foldable that still flips hard. The whole lineup&rsquo;s stacked with better screens, smarter AI, and serious design glow-ups.</strong></h2>

<p>Samsung&rsquo;s foldable fam just got a major refresh. The Galaxy Z Fold7, Z Flip7, and the all-new Z Flip7 FE are now official&mdash;and they&rsquo;re bringing sharper displays, smarter AI features, more powerful processors, and sleeker, tougher designs. Whether you want a multitasking beast with an 8-inch display, the slimmest Flip yet, or a more budget-friendly entry into the foldable world, Samsung&rsquo;s got you covered in 2025.</p>
<h2><strong>Galaxy Z Fold7: Bigger screen, smarter AI, and a 200MP camera</strong></h2>
<p>Let&rsquo;s start with the Fold7. This is Samsung&rsquo;s lightest and thinnest Fold yet at 215g and just 8.9mm thick when closed&mdash;but it still opens up to a massive 8.0-inch QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display (120Hz, 2184x1968). The cover screen is no slouch either: a 6.5-inch AMOLED panel with a 21:9 aspect ratio and 2520x1080 resolution, perfect for typing, browsing, or snapping pics one-handed.</p>
<p>Inside, it&rsquo;s powered by the new Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor, paired with up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage. It also gets the latest One UI 8 and Android 16 combo, bringing multimodal AI to the fold&mdash;literally. That means smoother multitasking, on-screen Circle to Search, live language translation, and smart content suggestions powered by Galaxy AI.</p>
<p>On the back, there&rsquo;s a triple camera setup headlined by a beastly 200MP wide-angle sensor, along with a 12MP ultra-wide and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom and 30x Space Zoom. Up front, you get a 10MP selfie camera on the cover and another 10MP lens inside for video calls. Video quality gets a boost too, thanks to upgraded Night Video features and 10-bit HDR.</p>
<p>Battery? A solid 4,400mAh dual-cell setup with 25W fast charging, fast wireless charging, and Wireless PowerShare. And yes, it&rsquo;s built to last: you get Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 on the cover, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the back, an Armor Aluminum frame, and a redesigned hinge with a titanium-reinforced main screen.</p>
<h2><strong>Galaxy Z Flip7: Samsung&rsquo;s slimmest flip ever, now with a powerful AI brain</strong></h2>
<p>The Galaxy Z Flip7 is all about packing serious power into the slimmest Flip design Samsung&rsquo;s ever made. It weighs just 188g and folds down to only 13.7mm thick, making it ridiculously easy to slip into your pocket or bag. But don&rsquo;t let the size fool you&mdash;this thing&rsquo;s stacked.</p>
<p>The outer 4.1-inch FlexWindow is now edge-to-edge, Super AMOLED, and hits 2,600 nits&mdash;Samsung&rsquo;s brightest cover screen yet. Flip it open, and you get a 6.9-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display (120Hz) that&rsquo;s smooth, sharp, and perfect for everything from Instagram to editing photos.</p>
<p>Under the hood, it&rsquo;s powered by the new Exynos 2500 chip, paired with 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB storage. You also get Samsung DeX support for the first time on a Flip, turning your pocket phone into a mini workstation.</p>
<p>The rear camera setup includes a 50MP wide-angle and 12MP ultra-wide sensor, while the 10MP selfie cam sits up front. With FlexCam, real-time filters, and zoom controls directly on the cover screen, it&rsquo;s basically a selfie studio in your hand.</p>
<p>Topping it all off is the largest battery ever in a Flip&mdash;4,300mAh&mdash;with fast wired and wireless charging, and Samsung&rsquo;s rugged Armor Aluminum build wrapped in Gorilla Glass Victus 2.</p>
<h2><strong>Galaxy Flip7 FE: A more affordable foldable that still flips</strong></h2>
<p>Joining the foldable family is the new Galaxy Z Flip7 FE, aimed at making foldables more accessible. It has a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display and a 3.4-inch outer AMOLED screen for quick glances and updates. The camera setup is the same as the Flip7&mdash;50MP wide and 12MP ultra-wide on the back, 10MP on the front.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s powered by the Exynos 2400 chip, comes with 8GB RAM, and offers either 128GB or 256GB storage. The 4,000mAh battery supports fast charging and wireless power features too. It's a bit chunkier than the Flip7, but still compact and clean with black and white colour options.</p>

Think business laptops under ₹40K are boring? The Asus ExpertBook B1403 might just surprise you — with premium durability, solid performance, and a few features you didn’t see coming.

Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: A budget workhorse that refuses to quit

<p>Think business laptops under ₹40K are boring? The Asus ExpertBook B1403 might just surprise you &mdash; with premium durability, solid performance, and a few features you didn&rsquo;t see coming.</p>

<p>Let&rsquo;s be honest, when you hear &ldquo;business laptop under ₹40K,&rdquo; you probably expect a chunky plastic box that groans under pressure. But Asus wants to challenge that image with the ExpertBook B1403, a military-tested, metal-clad, feature-packed machine that punches well above its price tag. And I&rsquo;ve been using it in the wild: through Delhi metros, monsoon mishaps, and long editing sessions, to see if this thing can actually hold up.</p>
<h3><strong>Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: Design</strong></h3>
<p>This laptop isn&rsquo;t just built for boardrooms; it&rsquo;s built for battlefields. Not metaphorically; Asus put this thing through 24 different MIL-STD 810H tests. I&rsquo;ve seen people stand on it, pour water on the keyboard, and yank at the ports like they're opening a stubborn packet of chips. And the laptop just&hellip; survives.</p>
<p>Even in real life, I threw it into my bag, jostled it through rush hour in Delhi, and used it in humid, rain-soaked cafes. Not a single creak or glitch. The metal chassis feels solid, the hinge is smooth yet firm, and the whole device weighs just about 1.5 kg and stays under 20mm thick. It&rsquo;s compact without feeling fragile.</p>
<p>As far as ports are concerned, you are covered.. Dual USB-C (with PD and DisplayPort), dual USB-A, HDMI, audio jack, RJ45, and even a Kensington lock slot. Smartly, most of the ports sit on the left, giving your mouse hand the breathing room it deserves.</p>
<h3><strong>Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: Display</strong></h3>
<p>Let&rsquo;s set expectations: this is a 14-inch 1080p anti-glare IPS panel, pushing 300 nits. Colour-wise, it&rsquo;s 45% NTSC, so no, it&rsquo;s not winning any awards for vibrancy. But for work, media, and the occasional Netflix binge on a flight? Absolutely fine.</p>
<p>And here&rsquo;s the surprise &mdash; I played a few rounds of Valorant on this thing. Did it stutter and heat up a bit? Of course. But it ran. That speaks volumes about the Intel Core i5-13420H chip inside: an 8-core 13th Gen CPU with enough grunt for multitasking, light gaming, and even basic creative work.</p>
<h3><strong>Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: Performance</strong></h3>
<p>Pair that CPU with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, and you&rsquo;ve got yourself a machine that can breeze through Chrome tabs, Zoom calls, spreadsheets, and video playback all at once. For business users or students, this is more than enough.</p>
<p>Benchmarks tell the same story; a Geekbench 6 single-core score of 1903 and a multi-core score of 6850 show the CPU can more than hold its own in day-to-day tasks. The GPU score of 9328 may not break any records, but it&rsquo;s more than respectable for an integrated graphics setup. In Cinebench R23, it clocks in at 6411 on multi-core and 894 on single-core, reinforcing the fact that this machine is built for reliable, consistent productivity, not flashy peak performance. PCMark 10 returns a solid 4132, and 3DMark&rsquo;s Night Raid lands at 11,394. Not mind-blowing, but perfectly competent for a non-gaming ultrabook. It may not turn heads on a benchmark leaderboard, but in real-world use, it gets the job done, and then some.</p>
<h3><strong>Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: Keyboard &amp; trackpad</strong></h3>
<p>This is where the ExpertBook truly earns its name. The backlit, spill-resistant keyboard is smooth, tactile, and has a lovely 1.35mm key travel. You feel every press without straining your fingers. Asus even added a mylar layer under the keys to make it water-resistant up to 66cc. That&rsquo;s just smart engineering.</p>
<p>The 180-degree hinge is perfect for collaborative work or typing in weird postures. And no, the keyboard doesn&rsquo;t flex under pressure.</p>
<p>The trackpad was serviceable at best. It&rsquo;s not the smoothest, but it&rsquo;s well-sized and accurately placed, with no weird palm rejection issues.</p>
<h3><strong>Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: Thermals, fan noise, and battery life</strong></h3>
<p>Under normal workloads like browsing, docs, watching video, the machine stays cool and nearly silent. The fans don&rsquo;t make a peep. Push it hard with benchmarks, and yes, it heats up a bit, but not uncomfortably so.</p>
<p>Battery life claims go up to 8 hours. In my usage, which was a mix of web browsing, working on MS Office, and video playback, I averaged around 5-6 hours. Throw in some benchmarks or light gaming, and expect 4 hours tops. It charges back in around 2 hours with the bundled 63Wh charger. Pretty solid overall.</p>
<h3><strong>Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: Audio &amp; webcam</strong></h3>
<p>Here&rsquo;s something I didn&rsquo;t expect to praise: the speakers. Two smart amps push audio to 94dB &nbsp;good enough for video calls and casual binge-watching without needing headphones. And it&rsquo;s surprisingly distortion-free, even at higher volumes.</p>
<p>The webcam is sharp enough for Zoom and Google Meet, and with Microsoft Studio Effects (via free update), you get software tricks like background blur, auto framing, and eye contact correction, all powered by on-device AI.</p>
<h3><strong>Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: Software, security &amp; business-ready features</strong></h3>
<p>Asus isn&rsquo;t just selling hardware here, the software suite is just as well-thought-out. The MyASUS and ExpertWidget apps make customisation easy, from fan profiles to charging modes.</p>
<p>Now, coming to security. You get practically everything that you can think of: a fingerprint scanner, optional IR camera with Windows Hello, webcam privacy shield, TPM 2.0 chip, USB access locks, BIOS rollback prevention &mdash; the works. IT admins can even manage fleets of these using the ASUS Control Center remotely.</p>
<p>There&rsquo;s also AI-powered noise cancellation for mics, real-time translation, meeting summaries, and a transcription tool built into the OS-level ExpertMeet software. For a ₹30K-ish laptop, this is quite impressive.</p>
<h3><strong>Asus ExpertBook B1 Laptop Review: Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>The Asus ExpertBook B1403 isn&rsquo;t flashy. It doesn&rsquo;t have OLED panels or fancy haptics. But what it does have is everything a practical, on-the-move professional or student actually needs: durability, real-world performance, great I/O, thoughtful software, and smart design touches.</p>
<p>At around ₹30,000, this thing is an absolute steal, especially when you consider bulk purchase options for teams.</p>
<p>So who&rsquo;s it for? Students, writers, field workers, office-goers, remote warriors, basically anyone who needs a no-nonsense, dependable workhorse that doesn&rsquo;t crack under pressure. Just don&rsquo;t expect buttery gaming or creative-grade display quality.</p>
<p>For the price though, this laptop doesn&rsquo;t just pass the test: it sets the curve.</p>

Is the Realme 15 Pro the best all-rounder around ₹30K? We compared it to the Nord CE 5 and Nothing Phone 3a—see how it holds up in performance, camera, design and more.

Realme 15 Pro review vs oneplus nord ce 5 & nothing phone 3a

<p data-start="2072" data-end="2231"><strong>Realme 15 Pro goes all in on cameras, display and AI&mdash;but can it outplay the Nord CE 5&rsquo;s speed or the Phone 3a&rsquo;s vibe? Here&rsquo;s our take after real-world testing.</strong></p>

<p>The Realme 15 Pro is the latest addition to the brand&rsquo;s popular number series, and, as always, there&rsquo;s a lot of excitement around it.</p>
<p>But it faces some tough competition from the Nord CE 5, a straight-up performance beast, and the Nothing Phone 3a a phone that oozes style.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve been using all three for a while now, and I&rsquo;ve got thoughts.</p>
<h2><strong>Performance</strong></h2>
<p>Let&rsquo;s talk performance, because on the surface, all three of these phones sound solid.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Realme 15 Pro rocks the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, the Nord CE 5 is on the Dimensity 8350 Apex and the Nothing Phone 3a, runs on the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3.</p>
<p>But, the Realme &amp; Nothing get LPDDR4X RAM, while the Nord CE 5 steps it up with LPDDR5X RAM. For storage, Realme and Nord bring UFS 3.1, whereas Nothing, sticks to UFS 2.2. Not exactly a wise choice.</p>
<p>Also, only the OnePlus supports expandable storage, and I am all for it.</p>
<p>In Antutu, the Nord CE 5 absolutely smoked the other two with a score of over 1.4 million. Realme wasn&rsquo;t bad, it scored about 1.09 million, but Nothing didn&rsquo;t even hit a million.</p>
<p>3DMark&rsquo;s Wildlife Extreme Stress test was wild. The Nord had the highest loop score of 3035, but its stability was just 33.2%. Both Realme and Nothing had a stability of over 99%, but their loop scores were way lower. In fact, Nothing&rsquo;s score was a third of what OnePlus&rsquo; score, which is insane.</p>
<p>In the CPU throttle test however, the Nothing Phone 3a impressed. It dropped to just 92% and had solid scores. Realme dropped to 89%, but had the highest peak performance. The Nord kinda fell apart here. It throttled to 69%, and had the lowest average.</p>
<p>But like I've always said, benchmarks are just numbers. Gaming tells you way more.</p>
<p>Both Realme and OnePlus support 90fps in BGMI, but OnePlus has some clever, frame-boosting tricks. In a 10-minute match, it averaged 118.4fps, dipping to just 112.5 fps for 5% lows. It also ran cooler at 37.4&deg;C.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Realme also did well, averaging 89.5 fps. But the 5% lows dropped to 86.1, and it ran warm at 40.1&deg;C.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Phone 3a supports 120fps in BGMI, but we never crossed 90. It averaged 89.8fps with max temps at 34&deg;C.</p>
<p>I mean, sure, it's stable, but what&rsquo;s the point if it can&rsquo;t deliver what it should?</p>
<p>Also, shoutout to OnePlus and Realme for including bypass charging. That&rsquo;s a lifesaver during long gaming sessions.&nbsp;</p>
<p>So if gaming&rsquo;s a big deal for you, this is pretty much a two-horse race. But what about cameras?</p>
<h2><strong>Cameras</strong></h2>
<p>Well, the Nothing Phone 3a packs a solid setup&mdash;a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 50MP 2x telephoto, and an 8MP ultrawide.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Realme looks like it comes with three cameras, but actually, it&rsquo;s just a 50MP main with OIS and a 50MP ultrawide. On the front though, it flexes with a 50MP selfie shooter.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Nord CE 5 keeps it simple with a 50MP main and an 8MP ultrawide, and a 16MP selfie cam.</p>
<p>All three main cameras are solid, but each has its quirks. Realme usually nails shots but fumbles white balance here and there.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Nothing Phone 3a sometimes underexposes in bright light, and the Nord CE 5 plays it safe&mdash;consistent, but not exciting.&nbsp;</p>
<p>That said, I&rsquo;d still pick the Phone 3a. Its colours pop, and the detail is just a bit sharper.</p>
<p>In low light Realme takes the crown. It grabs the most detail and nails exposure.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Nothing tends to over-brighten, and the Nord often ends up too dark.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Ultrawide is another win for Realme &mdash;great detail, even if a bit dim. Nothing and Nord are fine, but Nord&rsquo;s output feels the flattest.</p>
<p>Video is a mixed bag. Nothing maxes out at 4K30, while the other two go up to 4K60. All three of them have pretty good stabilisation. But I&rsquo;d still go with Nothing&mdash;it looks better, and has better colours.</p>
<p>Realme nails selfies with sharp detail and solid edge detection, while the Phone 3a also holds up well. Nord&rsquo;s photos feel flat and occasionally off in colour.</p>
<p>For me, the Nothing Phone 3a is the best overall camera pick, thanks to its versatile setup. Realme comes in a close second with strong low-light and ultrawide performance.</p>
<p>Now, let's quickly take a look at the other stuff.&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Design</strong></h2>
<p>The Nord CE 5 also looks great, especially in this blue finish, but still misses out on the alert slider and even the new plus key.</p>
<p>Realme 15 Pro has a mostly plastic body. Ours came in Silky Purple, which looks nice, but I don&rsquo;t like how cheap the plastic back feels. &nbsp;However, Realme does feel the lightest and slimmest in the hand.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Nothing of course, has its glyph lights, but the Realme too has a cool, colour-changing pulse ring around one of the cameras to alert you about notifications.</p>
<p>You can also shake the Realme 15 Pro to launch the camera or turn on the torch &mdash; a trick borrowed from Moto phones. It&rsquo;s just as gimmicky, but I have to admit, I kind of like it.</p>
<p>Realme also wins big on durability with its IP66, 68, and 69 ratings, along with Gorilla Glass 7i on the front.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Nord has IP65, and Nothing settles for IP64 with Panda Glass.&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Display</strong></h2>
<p>Realme also crushes it on display&mdash;6.8-inch, 10-bit AMOLED panel, 1800 nits HBM, 6500 nits peak brightness&mdash;it has all the impressive numbers. To me, it looks brighter and better than the other two, in every way, though I am not a fan of the quad-curved panel.</p>
<p>Weirdly though, it is a 144Hz panel that only works in some system apps, not in games. Maybe a software update will fix that&hellip;</p>
<p>Now, both the Realme and Nothing come with stereo speakers, but the Nord only packs a mono set-up, which was a massive red flag for me</p>
<h2><strong>Software</strong></h2>
<p>When it comes to software, Nothing OS is clean and minimal with 3+6 years of updates, but OnePlus edges ahead with 4+6 years and a smoother OxygenOS 15 experience. Realme UI is more cluttered but loaded with AI tools like voice editing and glare removal in photos, though it only offers 2+3 years of software support.</p>
<p>OnePlus has its own AI tools, but it&rsquo;s not as stacked as Realme. So if you care about AI features, Realme easily offers the most to play with.</p>
<h2><strong>Verdict</strong></h2>
<p>Now, the big question. How do you pick one between the three&hellip;</p>
<p>If cameras and killer design are your top priorities, the Nothing Phone 3a is the one that turns heads and delivers.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Nord CE 5 is your no-nonsense workhorse; fast, tough, and reliable that just drives everything with brute force. &nbsp;</p>
<p>But the Realme 15 Pro is the all-rounder here. It may not top every chart, but it consistently holds its ground across the board, be it cameras or performance.&nbsp;</p>

The iQOO Z10R delivers killer looks, 4K selfie video, and smooth Dimensity 7400 power under ₹20K. Here's a quick 5-point review to see if it's worth the hype.

iQOO Z10R Review in 5 Points

<p><strong>With a premium finish, 4K selfie videos, and smooth everyday performance, the iQOO Z10R packs big features under ₹20K, with just a few minor trade-offs.</strong></p>

<p>iQOO has just rolled out the Z10R, and it&rsquo;s turning heads&mdash;for all the right reasons. Priced under ₹20,000 (₹17,499 to be precise), this one&rsquo;s playing in budget territory but flexing like a premium device. From unexpected camera chops to top-tier performance, it&rsquo;s got serious main character energy. That said, it&rsquo;s not without a few minor annoyances.</p>
<p>Here&rsquo;s everything you need to know, broken down into 5 quick points:</p>
<h2><strong>Premium looks, rugged build</strong></h2>
<p>It may be a budget phone, but it sure doesn&rsquo;t look like one. The Aquamarine finish pops, and the in-hand feel screams premium. On top of that, the phone has IP68 and IP69 ratings, meaning it&rsquo;s well-protected against water, dust, and clumsy moments. It&rsquo;s rare to find that kind of durability in this segment.</p>
<h2>Performance that punches way above its weight</h2>
<p>Running on the MediaTek Dimensity 7400, the Z10R clocks over 7.5 lakh on Antutu (according to iQOO). Whether you're into gaming, multitasking, or bingeing reels all day, the performance is buttery smooth and doesn&rsquo;t stutter.</p>
<h2><strong>Cameras that deliver</strong></h2>
<p>The rear packs a 50MP Sony IMX882 sensor, and the results are genuinely good&mdash;sharp details and natural tones. But the real surprise is the front cam: a 32MP sensor capable of 4K video at 30fps. That&rsquo;s perfect for creators, vloggers, or just anyone who wants crisp, high-res selfies without shelling out big bucks.</p>
<h2>Gorgeous screen, slightly annoying curves</h2>
<p>You get a 120Hz AMOLED display that&rsquo;s bright, colourful, and super fluid. The only catch? It&rsquo;s quad-curved. While it looks stunning, curved panels are notorious for accidental touches, and good luck finding a screen protector that fits just right.</p>
<h2><strong>Battery&rsquo;s decent, but not groundbreaking</strong></h2>
<p>With a 5,700mAh battery and 44W fast charging, you&rsquo;re covered for a full day. It&rsquo;s not the fastest charging in the game, but it&rsquo;s reliable and gets the job done without complaints.</p>
<h2><strong>Final take</strong></h2>
<p>The iQOO Z10R doesn&rsquo;t play by budget rules. It&rsquo;s stylish, speedy, and loaded with features you don&rsquo;t typically find under ₹20K. The curved screen and okay-ish charging are the only real compromises. If you&rsquo;re after a phone that stands out without breaking the bank, this one&rsquo;s a no-brainer.</p>

The Infinix Hot 60 5G+ offers smooth performance with a Dimensity 7020 chip, 120Hz display, Android 15, and 5G support — all for just ₹10,499. With solid battery life and thoughtful design, it’s a strong pick for budget buyers, despite a few trade-of

Infinix Hot 60 5G+ Review: Smart, Fast, and Surprisingly Polished

The Infinix Hot 60 5G+ offers smooth performance with a Dimensity 7020 chip, 120Hz display, Android 15, and 5G support — all for just ₹10,499. With solid battery life and thoughtful design, it’s a strong pick for budget buyers, despite a few trade-offs.

<p>The Infinix Hot 60 5G+ packs smooth performance, 5G support, a 120Hz display, and Android 15 &mdash; all under ₹11K. It&rsquo;s not perfect, with basic cameras and slow charging, but it nails the essentials for budget users and first-time smartphone buyers.</p>

<p>The Infinix Hot 60 5G+ doesn&rsquo;t make a big splash &mdash; but it doesn&rsquo;t need to. Priced at just ₹10,499, this budget phone quietly slips in with a surprisingly solid feature set that feels a notch above the usual entry-level crowd. It&rsquo;s not aiming to take on the big guns, but it clearly knows its strengths. After using it as my daily driver for a few days, I was genuinely impressed by how capable and self-assured it felt, despite a few rough edges.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Hot 60 5G+ Price &amp; Specs Rundown</strong></h3>
<p>For ₹10,499, the Infinix Hot 60 5G+ offers a solid mix of essentials and extras. It runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7020 chip with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, plus virtual RAM support and a microSD card slot for added flexibility. Right out of the box, it boots Android 15 with XOS 15.1 layered on top.</p>
<p>What sets it apart, though, are the little touches &mdash; like a smart assistant button and a front-facing LED flash &mdash; features you rarely see at this price, but ones that genuinely come in handy.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Hot 60 5G+&nbsp;Design: Subtle Details, Surprisingly Premium</strong></h3>
<p>The Infinix Hot 60 5G+ may be dishing it out in the budget segment, but honestly, it doesn&rsquo;t look it. From the moment I unboxed it, the design felt clean, understated, and surprisingly refined for this segment. The matte finish on the back instantly stood out &mdash; it doesn&rsquo;t attract fingerprints like the usual glossy plastic backs you see at this price, and it gives the phone a much more premium feel in hand. It&rsquo;s subtle, sure, but that&rsquo;s kind of what makes it work.</p>
<p>One design touch that really caught my eye was the copper-coloured ring around the rear camera module. It adds a bit of character to an otherwise minimal design. Even better, Infinix has extended that copper accent to the &ldquo;One-Tap AI&rdquo; button placed just below the power key &mdash; a thoughtful little detail that elevates the look.</p>
<p>This button launches Folax, Infinix&rsquo;s own smart assistant. I used it mainly for voice-based actions like checking the weather, opening Google Maps, launching the camera, or even jumping straight into YouTube Shorts. The button is remappable too, so I set mine to turn on the flashlight with a long press.</p>
<p>You can also assign it to screen recording or any other quick action. It even supports basic voice chat, though I&rsquo;ll be honest &mdash; that part felt more like a gimmick than something I&rsquo;d use regularly.</p>
<p>The phone&rsquo;s available in four colours: Steel Black, Tundra Green, Shadow Blue, and the one I tried &mdash; Caramel Glow, which has a warm tone that stands out without being loud. It also carries an IP64 rating, which means it&rsquo;s protected against dust and splashes. I wouldn&rsquo;t take it swimming, but it should survive a rainy commute just fine.</p>
<p>Physically, the phone feels light and easy to grip. The button placement is just right, and the power and volume keys are tactile and responsive &mdash; no mushiness here. There&rsquo;s also a 3.5mm headphone jack, which is increasingly rare but always appreciated, especially for budget phones.</p>
<p>On the front, you get an LED flash next to the selfie camera, which doubles up as a notification light &mdash; a small but super handy touch I ended up appreciating way more than I expected.</p>
<p>Infinix also claims that the Hot 60 5G+ will get "segment-first" features like Circle to Search and UltraLink, which enables Bluetooth calling. While I didn&rsquo;t get to test those thoroughly during my time with the device, if they roll out as promised, they&rsquo;ll add even more value to what&rsquo;s already a surprisingly polished phone for the price.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Hot 60 5G+ </strong><strong>Display: Responsive, But Nothing Fancy</strong></h3>
<p>The Infinix Hot 60 5G+ comes with a 6.7-inch HD+ LCD display and a 120Hz refresh rate. On paper, that sounds great &mdash; but in real-world use, I found the screen pretty average. It&rsquo;s not the sharpest panel, and colours felt a bit muted. The thick bottom chin also stood out more than I&rsquo;d like.</p>
<p>That said, I&rsquo;ve got to give it credit for responsiveness. Scrolling was smooth, touch input felt accurate, and visibility outdoors wasn&rsquo;t an issue. For everyday stuff like browsing or casual video watching, it gets the job done &mdash; just don&rsquo;t expect AMOLED-level punch.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Hot 60 5G+ Performance: Surprisingly Snappy<br></strong></h3>
<p>Performance on the Infinix Hot 60 5G+ honestly caught me off guard &mdash; in a good way. With the Dimensity 7020 chip and 6GB of RAM, it handled my daily routine with ease. Whether I was switching between WhatsApp, Chrome, Instagram, or YouTube, everything ran smoothly without stutter. Even light gaming was doable. I wasn&rsquo;t expecting LPDDR5X RAM in a phone at this price, so that was a pleasant surprise.</p>
<p>Thermals were also solid. The phone stayed cool, even during longer sessions of browsing or video streaming, and multitasking didn&rsquo;t cause any slowdowns. For a budget phone, this is one area where it really holds its own.</p>
<p>That said, don&rsquo;t buy into the 90fps gaming claims just yet. In my testing, games like BGMI topped out at 40fps. So while it&rsquo;s capable enough for casual play, high-frame-rate gaming isn&rsquo;t really on the cards right now.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Hot 60 5G+&nbsp;Cameras: Passable with Caveats</strong></h3>
<p>Let&rsquo;s be real &mdash; the Infinix Hot 60 5G+ isn&rsquo;t here to win any camera awards. The 50MP rear sensor does a decent job outdoors, but it does smoothen faces a bit too much and adds a noticeable warm tint to skin. Skies tend to look overly blue, and colours feel a bit exaggerated overall.</p>
<p>Portrait mode didn&rsquo;t blow me away either &mdash; edge detection was hit or miss, especially indoors.<br>Selfies are okay in good lighting but fall short on detail. However, I genuinely liked the front-facing LED flash. It&rsquo;s super handy for low-light selfies and actually makes a difference &mdash; way more than I expected.</p>
<p>At the end of the day, it&rsquo;s not a photography champ, but for casual shots and social media use, it gets the job done.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Hot 60 5G+ Battery: Functional, but Still Bloated</strong></h3>
<p>Battery life on the Hot 60 5G+ is solid. The 5200mAh cell got me through a day without stress &mdash; even with music, scrolling, and a bit of gaming thrown in. Charging, though, is a different story. Infinix bundles an 18W charger, and a full charge takes nearly two hours. It&rsquo;s not a dealbreaker, but definitely on the slower side unless you&rsquo;re plugging in overnight.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Hot 60 5G+&nbsp;Software: Functional, but Still Bloated</strong></h3>
<p>The Hot 60 5G+ ships with Android 15 and Infinix&rsquo;s XOS 15.1 skin on top. It&rsquo;s colourful and feature-packed, with lots of extras like custom gestures and themes. But honestly, there&rsquo;s way too much bloatware out of the box. I found apps I never asked for, and while some could be uninstalled, the UI still felt busier than it needs to be.</p>
<p>What bugged me more, though, is the software support situation. Infinix has only promised two years of security updates &mdash; and there&rsquo;s no word on how many major Android upgrades this phone will get. That&rsquo;s disappointing if you&rsquo;re hoping to keep this phone for a few years. In short, it&rsquo;s fine for now, but don&rsquo;t expect long-term update love here.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Hot 60 5G+ Verdict: Value-Driven, If You Know What You&rsquo;re Getting</strong></h3>
<p>The Infinix Hot 60 5G+ isn&rsquo;t chasing headlines or trying to wow spec nerds &mdash; and that&rsquo;s exactly why it works. It&rsquo;s built for everyday users who want solid performance, a clean design, and 5G support at a price that doesn&rsquo;t sting. The battery lasts all day, and it runs surprisingly smooth for something that costs ₹10,499.</p>
<p>Sure, there are compromises. The display is just okay, the cameras are basic, and long-term software support feels uncertain. But none of those are dealbreakers if you just need a reliable phone that gets the job done.</p>
<p>I&rsquo;d say it&rsquo;s a solid pick for first-time smartphone buyers, students, or anyone looking for a smooth secondary device. As long as you don&rsquo;t expect premium polish, the Hot 60 5G+ delivers way more than you&rsquo;d think for the price.</p>
