EcoLink AiroElevate BLDC Ceiling Fan Review: Finally, a Fan That’s as Smart as It Looks

<h2>The EcoLink AiroElevate BLDC ceiling fan blends stylish design, silent high-performance airflow, smart remote features, and energy efficiency, making it a premium, budget-friendly choice for modern homes.ccccccccccccccc</h2>

<p>Ceiling fans are supposed to be boring. You buy one, screw it in, and hope it moves enough air to keep you from melting into your couch by May. &nbsp;That&rsquo;s the cycle &mdash; pun intended.</p>
<p>But every once in a while, something comes along that makes you rethink why you settled for &ldquo;boring&rdquo; in the first place. The EcoLink AiroElevate BLDC ceiling fan, priced at ₹8,700, is one of those products.</p>
<p>It promises sleek aesthetics, smart features like a reverse rotation for winter, and a power-efficient BLDC motor that&rsquo;s built to survive long summers and longer power cuts.</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve been living with the silk white&ndash;rose gold version (yes, it&rsquo;s as pretty as it sounds) for the past few weeks, and here&rsquo;s the thing: I didn&rsquo;t know a fan could feel this premium.</p>
<h3><strong>A Fan That Understands the Assignment</strong></h3>
<p>Right out of the box, AiroElevate feels different. Instead of bulky plastic wings or dated designs that scream "builder-grade home," you get a seamless blade design that feels impossibly modern.</p>
<p>The silk white&ndash;rose gold variant I&rsquo;m using looks clean, minimal, and frankly a lot more expensive than the ₹8,700 price tag. There&rsquo;s also an espresso brown&ndash;copper option if you prefer warmer, cozier tones.</p>
<p>Mounting it was refreshingly flexible too, thanks to the adjustable ceiling mount that lets you tweak the fit according to your room&rsquo;s proportions. Small detail, big difference.<br>It&rsquo;s the kind of fan that complements a styled living room rather than shouting over it &mdash; something even premium brands forget way too often.</p>
<h3><strong>Quiet Power That Means Business</strong></h3>
<p>AiroElevate doesn&rsquo;t just show up &mdash; it shows off under the hood. With a 100% copper-wound BLDC motor at its heart, the fan delivers an impressive 230 CMM of air at a speed of 370 RPM.</p>
<p>In real-world terms, that means even at medium settings, the air feels instantly refreshing without the need for full-blast mode.</p>
<p>What&rsquo;s even cooler (literally) is how silent the operation is. There&rsquo;s no annoying hum, no weird mechanical buzz &mdash; just a whisper of a breeze strong enough to move curtains without you cranking up the volume on your TV.</p>
<p>And then there&rsquo;s the 5 Star BEE Rating, which basically means you&rsquo;re saving on your electricity bills while feeling smug about being more energy-efficient.</p>
<p>Add to that the ability to run nearly three times longer on an inverter during outages, and AiroElevate starts looking less like a fan and more like an investment in sanity for the next brutal summer.</p>
<h3><strong>Smarter Controls, Smarter Comfort</strong></h3>
<p>If you thought the design and performance were impressive, the operation seals the deal.</p>
<p>The point-anywhere RF remote &mdash; yes, RF, not old-school IR &mdash; lets you control the fan from literally anywhere in the room, no awkward line-of-sight needed. That said, I do wish it had a voice command feature &mdash; something simple like "Fan on, Fan off." (Very Mr. Miyagi). It&rsquo;s a small ask, but given how close AiroElevate already feels to the future, that would&rsquo;ve been the perfect finishing move.</p>
<p>On the plus side, it offes six speed levels, a turbo mode for instant cooling and a timer to automatically shut it down. The reverse mode, especially, is impressive. In winter, it circulates warm air without that chilling downward blast, making heaters way more efficient. It&rsquo;s a feature you didn&rsquo;t know you needed until you use it &mdash; and then you&rsquo;ll wonder how you lived without it.</p>
<h3><strong>Warranty That Doesn&rsquo;t Feel Like an Afterthought</strong></h3>
<p>AiroElevate offers a standard 3-year warranty plus an additional 2 years if you register the product on their DigiShield app. Five years of coverage on a ceiling fan? That&rsquo;s unusually generous, and honestly, it should be the new standard across the industry.</p>
<h3><strong>Extra Flair: Because Why Not?</strong></h3>
<p>There&rsquo;s also a designer LED display tucked neatly into the fan&rsquo;s body that shows you the speed level.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s subtle, tasteful, and visible without feeling tacky. While it&rsquo;s not a must-have, it&rsquo;s the kind of thoughtful extra that rounds out the "premium" experience.</p>
<h3><strong>Final Verdict: Worth It?</strong></h3>
<p>In a world full of ceiling fans that exist purely to move air and collect dust, AiroElevate feels like a product made for people who actually care about their living spaces. It&rsquo;s quiet. It&rsquo;s efficient. It&rsquo;s stylish. And at ₹8,700, it&rsquo;s a luxury that still feels reasonable.</p>
<p>If you&rsquo;re upgrading your home this year &mdash; whether it&rsquo;s your bedroom, your living room, or even a stylish office space &mdash; AiroElevate absolutely deserves a spot on your shortlist.</p>

The Infinix Note 50S 5G+ packs flagship vibes into a ₹16K shell — curved AMOLED, JBL sound, fast RAM, 4K video, and AI smarts. This budget beast hits hard.

Infinix Note 50S 5G+ Review: A budget device that hits hard

<h2><span data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody">The Infinix Note 50S 5G+ is shaking up the budget segment with its sleek design, AMOLED display, solid cameras, and crazy-fast RAM&mdash;all under ₹16K. It&rsquo;s not perfect, but for the price, it punches way above its weight. This one&rsquo;s a sleeper hit.</span></h2>

<p>Infinix is one brand that&rsquo;s come out swinging in 2025.</p>
<p>The entire Note 50 series is clearly gunning for the top spot in the affordable segment, and the Note 50S 5G+ is no exception.</p>
<p>And first things first, we are thoroughly impressed by the phone. And no, this isn&rsquo;t a paid review. For ₹16,000, you can take this to the bank!</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Note 50s Design</strong></h3>
<p>The first thing I&rsquo;ve got to shout out is just how slim and light the Note 50s is. It weighs only 180 grams and comes in at just 7.6mm &mdash; honestly, getting this sort of a build quality, that too at this price point, is practically unheard of.</p>
<p>Side by side with other phones it just looks so sleek. Infinix even claims it's the slimmest phone with a 3D curved display in this segment.</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve got the Titanium Grey variant, which looks pretty much the same as the Note 50x.</p>
<p>But if you&rsquo;re looking for a bit more flair and style, we suggest that you go for the blue variant &mdash; it comes with a vegan leather back which looks pretty cool, but what really stands out is that it gives off this really cool fragrance.</p>
<p>The back and frame are plastic, but Infinix has gone for this cool metallic finish which feels very premium. You will definitely see fingerprints and smudges on the back panel, but fret not &mdash; you do get a matching case in the box. &nbsp;</p>
<p>Now, about that camera module &mdash; Infinix calls it a &ldquo;Gem-Cut&rdquo; design. It&rsquo;s flashy, and I get that they&rsquo;re trying to stand out in this world of smartphones that is just full of boring, boxy camera islands.</p>
<p>But if I am being honest, its not my cup of tea. I just wish the module was a bit smaller. But yes, design is totally subjective, so maybe you may end up liking it.</p>
<p>The phone also comes with Infinix's Active Halo Lighting that does it all &mdash; calls, notifications, charging, gaming, and voice assistant. Personally, I found this mostly to be useful for notifications, but it's definitely a cool feature.</p>
<p>The Note 50s also holds its own when it comes to durability. You get IP64 dust and water resistance and military-grade certification. You also get JBL-tuned dual stereo speakers &mdash; they&rsquo;re not super loud, but the bass is clean and doesn&rsquo;t distort. There&rsquo;s an IR blaster on top and also an in-display fingerprint scanner that&rsquo;s surprisingly fast and reliable.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Note 50s Display</strong></h3>
<p>Now let&rsquo;s talk about the display, because it&rsquo;s honestly one of the best I&rsquo;ve seen in this price range, even though it has some issues.</p>
<p>You&rsquo;re getting all the good stuff: a 6.78-inch 10-bit AMOLED panel, rich colours, deep blacks, and a fast 144Hz refresh rate. It even managed to stay pretty bright and usable in the outdoors, and those curved edges give total flagship feel.</p>
<p>But if you&rsquo;re gaming enthusiast and are planning to game on the device a lot, those curves can be a bit annoying, especially when you're trying to grip the phone during intense sessions. Also, the 144Hz refresh rate only works in the settings page, phone and message app.</p>
<p>Everywhere else, the refresh rate is dialled down to 120Hz. Honestl,y though, I was hard-pressed to tell the difference. But for content and casual use, this display is fantastic.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Note 50s&nbsp;Battery</strong></h3>
<p>If you&rsquo;d asked me in 2024 whether a 5500 mAh battery was impressive, I would have said yeah, definitely. In 2025 though, we are seeing manufacturers launch smartphones with 7,000 mAh batteries, and sometimes even more. So, Infinix too could have taken that route.</p>
<p>That said, for a phone this slim, the battery life&rsquo;s very good. I got a full day&rsquo;s use out of it &mdash; gaming, streaming, scrolling &mdash; no matter what I threw at it, the Infinix Note 50s dealt with it like a boss. &nbsp;</p>
<p>The 45W fast charging is also solid, and there&rsquo;s bypass charging as well &mdash; which powers the phone directly instead of the battery, so it doesn&rsquo;t heat up too much when charging.</p>
<p>The battery and charging performance is right on point for a budget phone. Having said that, we hope Infinix pushes the envelop when it comes to battery size. Most users would be perfectly fine with a device that is slightly thicker, but has an insane battery life.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Note 50s&nbsp;Performance &amp; Software</strong></h3>
<p>When it comes to performance and software, the Infinix Note 50S is punching way above its class.</p>
<p>Dimensity 7300 Ultimate may seem to be something extra and next level, but it's basically the same chip as the regular 7300 &mdash; and it still holds up strong. Antutu scores show it&rsquo;s just 3.5% behind the newer Dimensity 7400 on the Moto Edge 60 Fusion. The GeekBench scores also tell a similar tale.</p>
<p>But the real flex is that it's 8GB LPDDR5X RAM &mdash; on both 128GB and 256GB models. That&rsquo;s insane for this price.</p>
<p>Storage is UFS 2.2 &mdash; it&rsquo;s not blazing fast, but for everyday usage, it's more than enough. The UI is snappy, app switching is smooth &mdash; I saw no lag at all.</p>
<p>As for gaming, BGMI runs great on HD + Ultra, but switch to Smooth + Extreme, and it's very smooth.</p>
<p>Infinix claims that you get 90 FPS in some games. You won&rsquo;t find that sort of frame rate in BGMI, but Call of Duty Mobile actually gives you that kind of gameplay.</p>
<p>As for the software, we get Android 15 with XOS 15. There is some bloatware, but by and large, it&rsquo;s manageable. We get a ton of fun stuff like a mini dynamic bar, music gestures, and gesture call pickup, which keep things interesting.</p>
<p>But the true hero is the AI Suite &mdash; we have plenty of generic AI features like AI writing, image gen, object eraser, and Circle to Search. But, we also get some pretty practical tools like a doc assistant, an AI translator, and a surprisingly useful Folax AI assistant.</p>
<p>And yes &mdash; 2 years OS + 3 years security updates. For a phone that costs about ₹16,000, that&rsquo;s a proper bargain.</p>
<h3><strong>Infinix Note 50s&nbsp;Cameras</strong></h3>
<p><em>Please watch the video for camera samples.</em></p>
<p>Moving to the cameras, we get a 64MP Sony sensor + and a 2MP shooter, that&rsquo;s there for moral support only.</p>
<p>But ignore the 2MP &mdash; the main camera delivers. Shots are punchy, vibrant, and straight-up Instagram-ready. The 2X zoom is also surprisingly usable, even in low light.</p>
<p>Selfies from the 13MP front cam look natural. As for videos, you get 4K 30fps on both front and back with decent stabilisation and only minor crop.</p>
<p>We don&rsquo;t get an ultrawide which would've been nice, but for what it costs, I&rsquo;m not complaining.</p>
<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>The Infinix Note 50S starts at around ₹15,999. In fact, if people who ordered the device on the launch day &nbsp;scored it for as low as ₹14,999.</p>
<p>The Infinix Note 50S goes up against a pretty strong set of competitors. The iQOO Z10x for example, offers a 6,500mAh battery and faster UFS 3.1 storage, but the Note 50S is one of the most well-rounded phones right now &mdash; fast RAM, AMOLED screen, ad-free UI and a solid main camera.</p>
<p>And at the price point that Infinix is offering this device, I don&rsquo;t think there&rsquo;s a lot we can complain about.&nbsp;</p>

The iQOO Z10x offers impressive performance under ₹15,000 with a sleek design, powerful Dimensity 7300 chip, 6,500mAh battery, and solid daily use. However, its LCD screen and camera could be better. A balanced budget phone.

iQOO Z10x Review: It’s all about balance!

<h2>The iQOO Z10x offers solid value under ₹15,000 with a sleek design, Dimensity 7300 chip, 6,500mAh battery, and fast performance. While its LCD screen and camera performance could improve, it remains a great budget option.</h2>

<p>iQOO has been quietly reshaping the budget phone game in India, and the Z10x is its latest attempt to raise the bar under ₹15,000. It replaces the Z9x with a refreshed design, a newer Dimensity 7300 chip, a bigger battery, and a few subtle but smart upgrades&mdash;like UFS 3.1 storage and IP64 dust and water resistance.</p>
<p>On paper, it sounds like a solid all-rounder. But in a segment where brands are constantly cutting corners to hit aggressive price points, how much of that promise actually holds up in real-world use? We spent some time with the iQOO Z10x to find out.</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10x: Price &amp; Variants</strong></h3>
<p>The iQOO Z10x is available in three configurations:</p>
<ul>
<li>6GB RAM + 128GB storage &ndash; ₹13,499</li>
<li>8GB RAM + 128GB storage &ndash; ₹14,999</li>
<li>8GB RAM + 256GB storage &ndash; ₹16,499</li>
</ul>
<p>It&rsquo;s important to note that there&rsquo;s no option for expandable storage on the Z10x. That makes the 256GB variant more appealing for users who store a lot of media or apps, even if it pushes the price above the ₹15K mark.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The 8GB + 128GB version remains the sweet spot for most users, offering enough memory and internal storage for daily use without stretching the budget.</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10x: Design &amp; Display</strong></h3>
<p>The iQOO Z10x makes a strong first impression. Compared to the iQOO Z9X, this feels like a more refined device, especially in terms of design. iQOO has stuck with a polycarbonate build, but it doesn&rsquo;t come across as cheap.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The flat mid-frame gives it structure, while the slightly curved rear panel makes it easier to grip. What really stands out, though, is the matte plastic back with a subtle, wave-like shimmer. It reflects light in a pleasing way and does a good job at hiding fingerprints.</p>
<p>The camera module has been redesigned, too. Gone is the circular bump; in its place is a rectangular unit tucked into the top-left corner. It has a glossy finish, which does tend to attract smudges, but it&rsquo;s well-integrated into the overall look.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Inside, you&rsquo;ll find two camera lenses and a ring light&mdash;not for photography, but for notifications, calls, and charging status. It&rsquo;s a functional addition that adds some personality to the phone without being overbearing.</p>
<p>Even with a large battery inside, the Z10x stays relatively slim and lightweight. The rounded corners help with comfort, and it&rsquo;s a phone that&rsquo;s easy to hold for long periods.&nbsp;</p>
<p>An IP64 rating and a claim of military-grade toughness are both rare at this price but it's also not the best. The Realme P3X for instance offers IP68/69 dust and water resistance rating.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The improvements are clear on the back of the phone, but the front still feels like an area where compromises were made. The LCD panel retains the same specs&mdash;FHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 6.72-inch diagonal&mdash;but the bezels are noticeably thick.&nbsp;</p>
<p>They&rsquo;re slightly slimmer on the sides, thicker at the top, and fairly chunky at the bottom. Compared to the iQOO Z9x, the design feels like a step back here. It doesn&rsquo;t ruin the experience, but it does pull you out of the otherwise modern look.</p>
<p>The display offers punchy colours, decent outdoor visibility, and the touch response feels responsive enough for both casual gaming and everyday tasks. It&rsquo;s a display that does its job well, without aiming too high. Of course, it&rsquo;s not OLED, so you won&rsquo;t get the deep blacks or the same level of contrast.&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10x: Camera Performance</strong></h3>
<p>The iQOO Z10x features a 50MP main camera on the rear, paired with a basic 2MP depth sensor. Up front, there&rsquo;s an 8MP selfie camera. On paper, this setup is fairly typical for the segment, and in practice, it performs about as expected&mdash;with a few surprises.</p>
<p>In good lighting, the main camera delivers decent shots. There&rsquo;s fair detail, and the colours are mostly accurate, if slightly on the cooler side at times. Where it stumbles is portrait mode. Edge detection is hit-or-miss, and images often look over-processed.</p>
<p>Low-light performance, surprisingly, holds up better than expected. Shots retain a reasonable amount of detail and exposure is handled fairly well, though noise does creep in. .</p>
<p>Selfies are usable, too&mdash;not overly sharp or detailed, but good enough for video calls or social media with some basic tuning. That said, the overall camera package leaves you wanting more.</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10x: Performance &amp; Software</strong></h3>
<p>Under the hood, the Z10x runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chip, clocked at up to 2.5GHz. It&rsquo;s a solid performer for the price. In everyday use, the iQOO Z10x feels fast and responsive&mdash;apps open quickly, multitasking is smooth, and the overall experience rarely misses a beat.&nbsp;</p>
<p>A big reason behind that is the inclusion of UFS 3.1 storage, which translates to faster app load times and less lag when switching between tasks.</p>
<p>Benchmmark scores are very reasonable too - AnTuTu scores came in at 689,221, just ahead of close competitors like the Vivo T4x. On Geekbench, it managed 1,029 in single-core and 2,813 in multi-core tests</p>
<p>The phone ships with FunTouch OS 15, layered over Android 14. There are some genuinely helpful features here&mdash;AI Eraser, screen translation, and a few neat AI-powered tools.&nbsp;</p>
<p>But like other FunTouch devices, the experience is marred by bloatware and constant push notifications from preinstalled apps. It&rsquo;s not a dealbreaker, but it definitely takes some shine off the otherwise solid performance package.</p>
<p>iQOO also promises two years of Android updates and three years of security patches.&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10x: Battery &amp; Charging</strong></h3>
<p>The iQOO Z10x comes with a 6,500 mAh battery&mdash;a noticeable upgrade from the previous model&rsquo;s 6,000 mAh unit. It&rsquo;s a meaningful bump, and it shows in day-to-day use.&nbsp;</p>
<p>With moderate usage&mdash;messaging, social apps, some video streaming, and light gaming&mdash;the phone easily stretches across two full days on a single charge. Battery anxiety isn&rsquo;t something you&rsquo;ll have to worry about here.</p>
<p>Charging, however, is a bit of a mixed bag. iQOO retains the same 44W fast charging support from the previous model. It&rsquo;s not slow, but it&rsquo;s also not keeping up with the increasingly aggressive fast-charging speeds we&rsquo;re seeing in this segment.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In our testing, a full charge from 0 to 100% took about 1 hour and 42 minutes. That&rsquo;s acceptable for overnight top-ups or casual users, but if you're used to 65W or 80W systems, the wait might feel a little long.</p>
<p>Still, the battery endurance more than makes up for it. For users who prioritize longevity over speed, the Z10x delivers where it matters.</p>
<h3><strong>Verdict: iQOO Z10x Review</strong></h3>
<p>At under ₹15,000, the iQOO Z10x offers more than what you&rsquo;d typically expect from a budget phone. It brings a sharp design, solid everyday performance thanks to the Dimensity 7300 chip, and a battery that easily lasts two days.&nbsp;</p>
<p>There are trade-offs, of course. The LCD screen has chunky bezels and lacks the richness of OLED. The cameras are functional but not standout, especially when it comes to portraits. And the software experience still suffers from bloatware and notification spam, even though it comes with some useful AI tricks.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Still, if you&rsquo;re after a phone under ₹15,000 that delivers where it counts&mdash;battery life, build, and reliable performance&mdash;the iQOO Z10x is hard to ignore. It&rsquo;s not flashy, but it&rsquo;s smartly specced and thoughtfully balanced for its price.</p>

Explore the OPPO K13 5G's features: 7,000mAh battery, 80W charging, Snapdragon 6 Gen 4, and a 6.67-inch AMOLED display. Starting at ₹17,999, it's now available in India.

Oppo K13 5G Review: More Juice, Less Fuss

<h2>OPPO K13 5G debuts in India with a 7,000mAh battery, 80W fast charging, Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset, and a 6.67-inch AMOLED display. Priced from ₹17,999, it's available via Flipkart and OPPO's website.</h2>

<p>The new OPPO K13 5G, like most phones this year, is going big on battery&mdash;7,000mAh big. That&rsquo;s just a touch below the 7,300mAh unit on the iQOO Z10, but still, seriously impressive.</p>
<p>You&rsquo;re also getting the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4, a 120Hz AMOLED display, 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging, a decent 50MP main camera, and a few of OPPO&rsquo;s AI tricks borrowed from its more premium lineup.</p>
<p>But does all that actually come together in real life? That&rsquo;s what we&rsquo;re here to find out.</p>
<h3><strong>Oppo K13 5G - Price</strong></h3>
<p>The Oppo K13 starts at Rs. 17,999 for the 8GB + 128GB variant. Pre-orders are already live, and the phone will be available from today (21 April 2025) through Flipkart, Oppo's official website, and offline stores.</p>
<h3><strong>Oppo K13 5G - Battery &amp; Charging</strong></h3>
<p>This is easily the phone&rsquo;s headline feature. The 7,000 mAh battery is a monster&mdash;two-day battery life is absolutely achievable, even with heavy use. Streaming, gaming, social media, camera&mdash;throw whatever you want at it, and the K13 just keeps going.</p>
<p>&nbsp;And it&rsquo;s a graphite-based cell, which is supposed to last longer. Oppo&rsquo;s promising 5 years of endurance &mdash; meaning the battery should retain around 80% of its original capacity even after long-term use.</p>
<p>Oppo also claims that mosnter cell should offer 32.7 hours of music playback, 15.1 hours of streaming short videos and 10.3 hours of gaming.&nbsp;</p>
<p>As for charging, you get 80W SuperVOOC, which is slightly less than the 100W on the K13. But that phone only had a 5,500mAh battery. &nbsp;And we&rsquo;d take the extra 1,500mAh over the extra 20W any day. Still, it&rsquo;s fast &mdash; and charges the phone just over 60% in 30 minutes, which is plenty quick.</p>
<h3><strong>Oppo K13 5G - Performance</strong></h3>
<p>The Oppo K13 is powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 &mdash; a 4nm chip and the first in the 6-series to feature ARMv9 CPU cores. It&rsquo;s also paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.</p>
<p>OPPO&rsquo;s also packed in a proper cooling system here with a 6000 mm&sup2; graphite layer and a 5700 mm&sup2; vapor chamber.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We haven&rsquo;t run into any slowdowns so far &mdash; multitasking is smooth, app switching is snappy, and day-to-day use feels lag-free.</p>
<p>Would we call this a phone for gamers? Not exactly. &nbsp;You can play BGMI at Smooth + Ultra. Frame rates hold up decently unless you go for longer sessions&mdash;then it starts to warm up a bit and throttles slightly, which is expected at this price.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In benchmarks, it comfortably beats the Dimensity 6300, and even edges past the new Dimensity 7300 in sustained performance. You also get UFS 3.1 storage, which is noticeably faster than UFS 2.2 &mdash; and yes, even the pricier iQOO Z10 is still stuck on 2.2.</p>
<h3><strong>Oppo K13 5G - Software</strong></h3>
<p>ColorOS 15 on the OPPO K13 is kind of like that overachieving friend&mdash;it&rsquo;s got flair, it&rsquo;s smart, and it doesn&rsquo;t get in your way (most of the time). Yes, there&rsquo;s some bloatware out of the box, but the good news is it&rsquo;s all uninstallable. Once you get rid of the extra fluff, the experience is actually really clean.</p>
<p>What stands out most is how snappy the UI feels. Animations are smooth, app switching is seamless, and OPPO&rsquo;s theming engine lets you tweak your lockscreen, icons, and overall vibe just the way you want it. You get gesture navigation, multi-window multitasking, a smart sidebar for quick app access, and File Dock for dragging and dropping content across apps&mdash;things that genuinely improve usability.</p>
<p>Then there's the AI suite. AI Summary can pull out key points from an article or document and even read them out loud using AI Speak. You also get the Live Alert feature&mdash;basically OPPO&rsquo;s take on the iPhone's Dynamic Island&mdash;which pops up when calls, timers, or music are playing.</p>
<p>OPPO promises two years of Android updates and three years of security patches. Sure, three OS updates would&rsquo;ve been nicer &mdash; but this is pretty much in line with what most of the competition is offering at this price.</p>
<h3><strong>Oppo K13 5G - Display, Speakers &amp; Haptics</strong></h3>
<p>As for the display, you&rsquo;re looking at a 6.67-inch 120Hz AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution, 1,200 nits peak brightness, and full DCI-P3 coverage.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s sharp, vibrant, and has good viewing angles. I do wish the bezels were a bit slimmer, but I love that it&rsquo;s a flat screen &mdash; no curves, which means fewer accidental touches and a better overall experience for watching videos or gaming.</p>
<p>And along with that display, you get Dolby stereo speakers &mdash; always a big plus.&nbsp;</p>
<p>They are loud thanks to that 300% Ultra Volume mode&mdash;handy in noisy spaces. But don&rsquo;t expect deep bass. Haptics are on the weaker side. They feel buzzy and inconsistent. You don&rsquo;t get feedback in all the right places, and for typing, it's not the most pleasant experience</p>
<h3><strong>Oppo K13 5G - Camera</strong></h3>
<p>On the back, you get a 50MP main camera with the OV50D sensor. This is accmpanied by a 2MP depth sensor It's not breaking any records, but it's consistent. Daylight shots come out sharp, with good dynamic range and natural colors.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Low light is where the AI really kicks in. Night mode actually works well&mdash;brighter scenes, less noise, and better shadows. There&rsquo;s also AI Unblur, Reflection Remover, and AI Retouching, which genuinely make a difference.</p>
<p>Selfies from the 16MP front cam are crisp in daylight. Edge detection in portrait mode could be better, but for Instagram or video calls, it holds up. Video is limited to 4K at 30 fps on the rear and 1080p on the front. No OIS, so keep a steady hand.</p>
<h3><strong>Oppo K13 5G - Design</strong></h3>
<p>Now, we have to talk about the design. I don&rsquo;t know... it&rsquo;s kinda nice...</p>
<p>Oppo&rsquo;s clearly tried hard not to make it look like an iPhone 13 &mdash; the cameras are vertically stacked inside a square module &mdash; but yes, it still gives off iPhone vibes, especially with those flat sides.</p>
<p>We like the contrast between the glossy camera module and the matte plastic back. It&rsquo;s got this criss-cross, diamond-like pattern that doesn't look overly flashy. The matte finish also keeps fingerprints in check...well, mostly in check...&nbsp;</p>
<p>We&rsquo;ve got the black version here, but there&rsquo;s a purple one too if you&rsquo;re into something a bit more colourful.</p>
<p>Despite its plastic build, the OPPO K13 doesn&rsquo;t feel cheap. It&rsquo;s solid, slightly hefty at 208g (expected with a 7,000 mAh battery), but still manageable in-hand. The flat display and rounded edges make for good ergonomics</p>
<p>Ports and buttons are all where you'd expect, although the power and volume buttons sit a bit high on the frame. You do get an IR blaster on top&mdash;a small but welcome extra.</p>
<p>Durability is another strong point: IP65 rating and MIL-STD-810H certification are rare at this price.</p>
<h3><strong>Oppo K13 5G - Other Features</strong></h3>
<p>You&rsquo;re also getting IP65 dust and water resistance, which isn&rsquo;t as tough as IP68 or IP69, but Oppo&rsquo;s added this Splash Touch feature, so you can actually use the screen in light rain.</p>
<p>And there&rsquo;s an IR blaster on top. Always handy if you're the kind of person who likes turning off other people&rsquo;s TVs.</p>
<p>Now, Oppo&rsquo;s been hyping up how durable this phone is, but they&rsquo;re still not taking chances. You get an anti-drop shield case in the box, and it feels pretty solid with that synthetic rugged texture.</p>
<p>We&rsquo;ve dropped the phone a couple of times with the case on &mdash; and so far its all good. And no, we&rsquo;re not brave enough to try the same thing without the case. Let&rsquo;s not tempt fate.</p>
<h3><strong>OPPO K13 5G Review - Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>The OPPO K13 5G is one of those phones that doesn&rsquo;t try to do too much, but nails the stuff that matters. That massive 7,000mAh battery is the obvious headliner, and when you pair that with 80W fast charging, a smooth AMOLED screen, and reliable day-to-day performance from the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 &mdash; it&rsquo;s a solid everyday phone.</p>
<p>The camera&rsquo;s not mind-blowing, but for the price, it holds up. If battery life is at the top of your wishlist and you want a phone that just works, the K13 won&rsquo;t disappoint.</p>

Vivo’s T4 is all set to debut on April 22, and it packs a giant 7,300mAh battery, 90W fast charging, and a sleek design under 200g. With a Sony 50MP camera, solid performance, the T4 looks to take the crown in the sub-₹25K segment. 

Vivo T4 first look: Insane battery, but one BIG miss

<h2>Vivo T4 packs a huge 7,300mAh battery, 90W fast charging, and a 50MP Sony sensor in a slim frame. Launching April 22, it could be a top pick under ₹25K&mdash;if it is priced right.</h2>

<p>The Vivo T4 is launching in India on April 22, but I&rsquo;ve already spent some time with it &mdash; and yeah, I&rsquo;ve got some thoughts.</p>
<h3><strong>Design</strong></h3>
<p>Let&rsquo;s talk design. The T4 has a plastic back and frame, which, okay, doesn&rsquo;t scream premium but this thing is pretty solid. Vivo&rsquo;s even throwing around &ldquo;military-grade impact resistance,&rdquo; which sounds intense until you realize it&rsquo;s paired with an IP65 rating.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now, the unit I&rsquo;ve been using is the Phantom Grey one &mdash; very minimalist, muted, and apparently inspired by the Toyota GR Supra, which is a weirdly specific flex. It also did catch some smudge every now and then.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Overall, the design is clean and understated &mdash; except for that camera bump. It&rsquo;s massive. The kind that makes you think you&rsquo;re getting something special from Zeiss or Hasselblad. Spoiler alert: you&rsquo;re not.</p>
<h3><strong>Battery</strong></h3>
<p>Now, turns out, the camera bump isn&rsquo;t the only thing going large on the T4. It comes with a monster 7,300mAh battery. Same as the iQOO Z10, if that rings a bell.</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve been using this phone for about a week now, and I&rsquo;ve only needed to charge it once every two days. And I&rsquo;m not talking about light usage &mdash; I&rsquo;ve been on calls, scrolling through Instagram, watching YouTube videos, and even doing a bit of gaming.</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve been consistently getting around 35 to 40 hours on a single charge. That&rsquo;s pretty wild. Like, forget-the-charger-at-home wild.</p>
<p>What&rsquo;s even more impressive is that Vivo&rsquo;s squeezed this massive battery into a 7.93mm frame while keeping the weight under 200 grams.&nbsp;</p>
<p>That&rsquo;s all thanks to the latest Silicon Carbon battery tech &mdash; it packs in more energy than your typical Lithium-Ion cell.&nbsp;</p>
<p>This means you get more juice without turning the phone into a brick.&nbsp;</p>
<p>You also have a fast 90W charger included in the box which tops up the phone from zero to 50 percent in around 30 minutes.&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Camera</strong></h3>
<p><em>Please watch the video for camera samples.</em></p>
<p>Now, lets talk cameras. On the back there's a 50MP Sony IMX882 sensor with OIS and a basic 2MP depth sensor. That&rsquo;s it.</p>
<p>To be fair though, the main sensor holds up pretty well. Images are sharp, punchy, and vibrant &mdash; sometimes a bit too vibrant... But if that saturation feels like a bit much, just switch on Natural Colour mode &mdash; it tones things down while still looking great.</p>
<p>The camera app feels super responsive, especially the shutter button. Vivo has baked its Pro Sports Mode algorithm right into the default 1x shooting mode. It&rsquo;s great for fast-moving subjects &mdash; pets, kids, sports &mdash; you get sharp, zero-lag shots with much better motion detection.</p>
<p>Zoom is handled surprisingly well. At 2X, the shots still hold detail and colour. Sure, you can go up to 10X digitally, but at this point, you&rsquo;re not getting the best results.</p>
<p>For selfies, you get a 32MP front wide angle camera, and it does a solid job. Skin tones look natural, there&rsquo;s good detail, and the algorithm isn&rsquo;t to aggressive with the blemishes.</p>
<p>Low-light performance is also impressive. You get decent detail, solid colours, and processing that doesn&rsquo;t go overboard. Sure, there&rsquo;s some noise, but it doesn&rsquo;t look artificially cleaned up like most budget phones.</p>
<p>Video recording maxes out at 4K 30fps from both the rear and the front cameras. The colours are slightly muted, which is expected.</p>
<p>Stabilisation is where things get iffy. There&rsquo;s an Ultra Stabilisation mode, but it only works at 1080p, and there&rsquo;s a noticeable crop. Even then, the footage can feel jittery at times. The front cam&rsquo;s video pops in terms of colour, but it&rsquo;s way too shaky to vlog with &mdash; you&rsquo;ll definitely need a gimbal if that&rsquo;s your plan.</p>
<p>Now, here&rsquo;s my only real gripe &mdash; there&rsquo;s no ultrawide camera. The 50MP main sensor is fairly wide at 26mm, but I&rsquo;d happily trade that 2MP depth sensor for a decent ultrawide any day.</p>
<h3><strong>Initial thoughts</strong></h3>
<p>Anyway, at the time of making this video, the official pricing isn&rsquo;t out yet &mdash; the phone hasn&rsquo;t launched. But if I had to guess, I&rsquo;d say it&rsquo;s likely to land under ₹25,000. And if that turns out to be the case, the Vivo T4 definitely shows promise.</p>
<p>If you&rsquo;re interested in a more in-depth review, drop a comment and we&rsquo;ll try to make it happen.&nbsp;</p>

ASUS’ ExpertBook P1 is built for business, offering a clean design, strong security, and reliable performance. But does it hold its ground in a premium-packed laptop market?

Asus ExpertBook P1 (2025) Review: Strictly for grown-ups

<p>The ASUS ExpertBook P1 is a serious business laptop with a clean design, strong performance, and enterprise-focused features. It&rsquo;s built for work, not play &mdash; but in 2025&rsquo;s competitive market, it&rsquo;s up against some tough rivals.</p>

<p>The ASUS ExpertBook P1 is what happens when a laptop decides to suit up and step into a boardroom. It&rsquo;s clearly built with business in mind &mdash; clean, no-nonsense, and a little bit serious in that very "corporate" sort of way. Like most business laptops, it gets a few office essentials right, but also makes some unexpected choices on the fundamentals.</p>
<p>But priced at ₹74,990 (for the variant we tested) it raises a pretty big question &mdash; can it really justify that price tag in a world where the MacBook Air M4 exists?</p>
<h3><strong>Design</strong></h3>
<p>Let&rsquo;s start with design &mdash; the ExpertBook P1 doesn&rsquo;t try too hard. It&rsquo;s clean, minimal, and built like it actually wants to show up to work on time. The body&rsquo;s basically made of plastic, but the matte finish does a solid job keeping fingerprints off.</p>
<p>The laptop weighs about 1.4 kilos and is 19.7mm thick. Not ultra-slim by any stretch, but light enough to carry around without feeling like you&rsquo;re lugging bricks. It&rsquo;s also MIL-STD-810H certified, which is a fancy way of saying it can survive some serious knocks and bumps that are a part of daily life.</p>
<p>Visually, I actually think it looks pretty modern and understated &mdash; except for those bezels. They&rsquo;re chunky. Like, can&rsquo;t-miss-it chunky.</p>
<p>Everything else feels solid though. The keyboard deck barely flexes, and the hinge opens up fully flat &mdash; which is great when you&rsquo;re working side-by-side with someone and need to quickly show your screen without weird angles.</p>
<p>Ports? You&rsquo;ve got your 2 USB-A ports, two USB-Cs with charging and display support, HDMI 1.4, a headphone jack, and even a full-size Ethernet port.</p>
<p>So no, it&rsquo;s not breaking new ground in design &mdash; but it&rsquo;s sturdy, it&rsquo;s clean, and it absolutely gets the job done.</p>
<h3><strong>Keyboard and Trackpad</strong></h3>
<p>The ExpertBook P1&rsquo;s keyboard is okay at best. It&rsquo;s got chiclet-style keys, in a tenkeyless layout with backlighting. The keys have 1.35mm travel, but feel mushy and not very tactile. ASUS usually nails keyboards, so this one&rsquo;s a bit of a letdown. It is spill-resistant though, so that&rsquo;s something.</p>
<p>The trackpad does the job &mdash; it is responsive and accurate enough for daily tasks &mdash; but it&rsquo;s a little too small for my liking. Nothing deal-breaking, just not the most comfortable if you&rsquo;re used to larger trackpads.</p>
<h3><strong>Display</strong></h3>
<p>The display on the ExpertBook P1 is another mixed bag. You&rsquo;re getting a 14-inch Full HD, non-touch panel with 300 nits of brightness. This is alright for indoors, but it's nothing too impressive.</p>
<p>What really throws me off is the 16:9 aspect ratio. In 2025, that&rsquo;s ancient. Most laptops have moved to 16:10. I did feel the missing real estate when working on docs, scrolling through spreadsheets, and during split-screen multitasking.</p>
<p>That said, it&rsquo;s not all bad. Viewing angles are solid, and the anti-glare coating works better than I expected.</p>
<p>Colour reproduction is decent for day-to-day stuff &mdash; YouTube, light content, that sort of thing. But if you&rsquo;re planning to binge-watch your favourite shows or dive into some serious media consumption, it won&rsquo;t exactly be an enjoyable experience.</p>
<h3><strong>Webcam &amp; Speakers</strong></h3>
<p>Moving to the webcam, the ExpertBook P1 comes with a 720p webcam, which honestly feels ancient in 2025.&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s just about passable for Zoom or Teams calls, but only if you&rsquo;ve got decent lighting. Image quality is soft, details are fuzzy, and in low light, it really falls apart.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Honestly, you&rsquo;re better off using your phone&rsquo;s selfie cam or a proper external webcam.</p>
<p>As for the speakers, they&rsquo;re bottom-firing and tucked near the sides. They&rsquo;re fine for the usual video calls or a quick YouTube break, but don&rsquo;t expect anything beyond that.&nbsp;</p>
<p>They don&rsquo;t get very loud, and there&rsquo;s barely any separation between vocals and background audio. ASUS says they&rsquo;re tuned by Dirac, but to me, they sound average at best. Good enough for work &mdash; but not your go-to for music or movie nights.</p>
<p>So far, the ExpertBook P1 hasn&rsquo;t been that impressive, right?</p>
<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>
<p>It&rsquo;s only when you look under the hood that the ExpertBook P1 starts to make sense.</p>
<p>Our unit came with an Intel Core i7-13620H, 32GB of DDR5 RAM at 5200MT/s, and 512GB of PCIe 4.0 storage. What&rsquo;s great is that the RAM and storage are both upgradable. You can upgrade to 64GB RAM and even run dual SSDs in RAID, which is super handy if you&rsquo;re dealing with big files or sensitive data.</p>
<p>Now, the 13620H isn&rsquo;t Intel&rsquo;s latest and greatest chip, so don&rsquo;t expect record-breaking benchmarks. But honestly? It performs really well. I had over 30 Chrome tabs open, a few spreadsheets, some documents &mdash; no lag, no stutter. Just smooth, stable performance across the board.</p>
<p>If you&rsquo;re looking to do graphic-heavy work or AI stuff though, that&rsquo;s where this laptop hits its limits. There&rsquo;s no dedicated GPU or onboard NPU, so creative workflows and AI tasks aren&rsquo;t really its thing. But for everyday use? It holds its own.</p>
<p>The laptop does get a bit warm &mdash; especially around the top of the keyboard when you&rsquo;re pushing it hard. You can manage the fan speed using the MyASUS app, but do keep in mind the fans do get audible.</p>
<p>Now, ASUS has packed in something called AI ExpertMeet, and it&rsquo;s actually useful. It does real-time translations during meetings, and can even give you full transcripts, after identifying the different speakers. It can also generate minutes of the meeting, create agendas, and generate notes based on what was discussed.</p>
<p>You can also show a digital business card on screen during calls. Plus, if you&rsquo;re sharing your screen during a meeting, it slaps on a watermark to keep things protected against prying eyes.</p>
<p>Pair all of that with Microsoft&rsquo;s Copilot tools, and you&rsquo;ve got a solid productivity setup.</p>
<p>Security-wise, this machine&rsquo;s actually pretty stacked. You&rsquo;ve got a fingerprint scanner for easy logins, but the real protection comes from the TPM 2.0 chip, which basically is a hardware-level security module that stores passwords, encryption keys, and other sensitive info separately from the rest of the system.</p>
<p>The laptop also meets a few BIOS integrity guidelines, so it can detect if someone&rsquo;s tampered with your firmware and recover your settings. And since the laptop is Windows Secured-core certified, all of this is enabled straight out of the box.</p>
<h3><strong>Battery</strong></h3>
<p>Battery life is another crucial area for business laptops. The ExpertBook P1 again gets a good grade with its a 50Wh, 3-cell battery. I could easily get through a full workday before charging it.</p>
<p>But when I did need to top it up, charging was surprisingly quick with the included 65W USB-C charger. The laptop went from 0 to 100% in just under an hour, which is pretty solid.&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>The ASUS ExpertBook P1 does it best to check the right boxes for business users &mdash; clean design, functional layout, and a no-fuss approach. It&rsquo;s got a sturdy design, decent performance for everyday tasks, and enough ports to keep most professionals happy.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The base version of the P1, starts ₹39,990, which may seem tempting. But, you only get an Intel i3 and 8 gigs of RAM.</p>
<p>At ₹74,990, for the Intel i7-13620H variant we tested, it&rsquo;s a tough sell. The new M4 MacBook Air, for instance, offers a more polished experience across the board. And even within the Windows ecosystem, there are plenty of compelling options &mdash; including some with dedicated GPUs and NPUs &mdash; many of them from ASUS&rsquo; lineup.</p>

Explore the iQOO Z10, India’s largest smartphone battery phone with 7,300mAh, 90W fast charging, and Snapdragon 7s Gen 3—offering sleek design, strong performance, and unbeatable value starting under ₹20,000.

iQOO Z10 First Look: Check price, features and more

<h2>The new iQOO Z10 is packing some insane features! A massive 7,300mAh battery, 90W fast charging, a crazy bright quad-curved AMOLED display, and the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset&mdash;all at an aggressive price. But does it live up to the hype?</h2>

<p>How much battery is too much battery for a smartphone? 5,000mAh? Nah. 5,500? Not even close. 6,500? Try harder. This is the new iQOO Z10&mdash; and apparently, 7,300mAh is the new benchmark.</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10 Battery &amp; Charging</strong></h3>
<p>This thing packs the biggest smartphone battery in India, which basically means you can forget about carrying a power bank ever again. But you&rsquo;re probably wondering&mdash;what does a 7,300mAh battery actually do for you?</p>
<p>Well, to give you a rough idea, you can binge-watch your favourite shows for up to 35 hours, game for around 15 hours, and even record videos for up to 8.5 hours. That&rsquo;s a lot of screen time.</p>
<p>Now, full disclosure&mdash;we still have to do a full battery test since we&rsquo;ve only had the device for a limited time. But honestly, we&rsquo;d be genuinely surprised if it didn't last more than two days with medium to heavy use.</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10 Design &amp; Build</strong></h3>
<p>What&rsquo;s even crazier is that iQOO has somehow crammed this massive battery into a 7.89mm frame while keeping the weight under 200g. That&rsquo;s some serious engineering flex.</p>
<p>The phone supports 90W fast charging, and the charger comes in the box. It can take you from 0 to 50 percent in just over 30 minutes.</p>
<p>As for aesthetics, the Z10 comes in two colours: Stellar Black and this Glacier Silver variant. It has a matte finish, which not only helps with grip and resists smudges but also adds a premium sheen. Plus, when you tilt it in your hand, it creates these subtle wavy patterns, which look pretty cool.</p>
<p>On the back, there&rsquo;s a large circular camera module housing two lenses, surrounded by a silver ring. It&rsquo;s a clean design, though nothing we haven&rsquo;t seen before. The module does stick out a bit, but since it&rsquo;s centrally placed, the phone doesn&rsquo;t wobble much when placed on a flat surface. And just to clarify, the back isn&rsquo;t glass&mdash;it&rsquo;s plastic, just like the frame.</p>
<p>Now, about how it feels in the hand&hellip;Despite packing a massive battery, the phone feels shockingly light - it's not at all bulky like you&rsquo;d expect from a phone with this kind of power pack. The slim build also means it&rsquo;s thin enough to hold comfortably, even with one hand.</p>
<p>That said, it&rsquo;s a tall phone&mdash;so if you have smaller hands, reaching the top of the screen might require some finger gymnastics. But overall, it&rsquo;s well-balanced, and the curved edges make it nice to grip without feeling boxy.</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10 Display</strong></h3>
<p>The local peak brightness is a staggering 5,000 nits. That&rsquo;s ridiculously bright&mdash;probably brighter than anything else in this price range. Even outdoors in harsh sunlight, you won&rsquo;t have any issues viewing content.</p>
<p>And because it&rsquo;s quad-curved, the display flows into the frame, making swipes and gestures feel smoother.&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>iQOO Z10 Performance</strong></h3>
<p>The Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 &nbsp;powering this phone isn&rsquo;t completely new&mdash;we&rsquo;ve seen this same chipset on devices like the Nothing Phone 3a series, Realme P3 Pro, and Realme 14 Pro+.</p>
<p>But all those phones cost between ₹25,000 and ₹30,000. Meanwhile, The iQOO Z10 comes with a starting price of ₹21,999 for the variant featuring 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. The models with 8GB RAM + 256GB storage and 12GB RAM + 256GB storage are available for ₹23,999 and ₹25,999, respectively.</p>
<p>iQOO is also calling this the Fastest Smartphone in the Segment, and they&rsquo;re backing it up with an AnTuTu score of over 8.2 lakhs. And yeah, that checks out in our own testing as well.&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>A battery that might outlast your weekend, a sleek design that doesn&rsquo;t feel bulky, a crazy bright display, solid performance with a very decent chipset, and 90W fast charging to keep you going.</p>
<p>If this thing delivers on its promises, it might just be the new battery king in the mid budget segment. I also think it could be a great option for students who attend a lot of online classes and even for teachers who conduct them.</p>

Discover the Vivo V50e — a stylish mid-range smartphone offering smooth performance, a vibrant quad-curved AMOLED display, powerful 50MP selfie camera, and long-lasting battery life, all at an attractive price point.

Vivo V50e Review: Best phone under Rs 30,000?

<h2>The Vivo V50e is a sleek mid-range phone with a stunning display, reliable performance, excellent battery life, and one of the best selfie cameras in its class &mdash; all packed in a lightweight body with IP68/69 rating and fast 90W charging.</h2>

<p>There&rsquo;s something oddly comforting about Vivo&rsquo;s mid range V-series phones. They don&rsquo;t chase clout like flagships, but they also don&rsquo;t settle like budget phones. They just&hellip; exist, in that sweet space space where good design, decent specs, and a few fun features meet.</p>
<p>The Vivo V50e is the latest in that tradition with a starting price of Rs 28,999. It&rsquo;s shiny (literally), slim, and packed with enough tricks to keep most users happy &mdash; even if it plays it a little safe in some departments.</p>
<h3><strong>Vivo V50e: Design &amp; Display</strong></h3>
<p>The Vivo V50e comes in two shades &mdash; Sapphire Blue, if you like your phones loud, and Pearl White, if you like them looking like they moisturise twice a day. &nbsp;I got the Pearl White, and it's giving shimmer without going full glitter bomb &mdash; subtle, sleek, and just a little bit extra.</p>
<p>And yes, that camera module is back. You know the one &mdash; the bottle-opener-style design that Vivo&rsquo;s been running with since the V40 Pro and the T3 Ultra. It&rsquo;s different and it weirdly works. Two big camera lenses sit inside and just below that, you get the Aura ring light. Think of it as a built-in beauty light for your face &mdash; because why not?</p>
<p>Now, the phone is entirely plastic, but let&rsquo;s not be snobs. It doesn&rsquo;t feel cheap. There&rsquo;s a soft matte texture that actually makes it feel more premium than some glass backs trying too hard. The back does pick up some fingerprint smudges but they are hard to spot most of the time.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s also 7.4mm thin and 186 grams, even with a massive 6,500mAh battery inside. That&rsquo;s borderline witchcraft. It feels super light, well-balanced, and sits in the hand like it&rsquo;s made to be scrolled endlessly on.</p>
<p>Ports and buttons are where you&rsquo;d expect &mdash; volume and power on the right, USB-C at the bottom, SIM tray, and yes, stereo speakers. It comes with IP68 and IP69 ratings, which means it can survive dust, a dunk in water.</p>
<p>And then there&rsquo;s the screen. Oh boy. This is a 6.77-inch quad-curved AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It&rsquo;s delightfully extra. Colours are bold but not cartoonish, blacks are OLED-deep, and everything &mdash; from doomscrolling to gaming &mdash; feels absurdly smooth.</p>
<p>The display hits 1,800 nits in High Brightness Mode, which means you can read your texts even under peak summer sun. Also, the quad-curved edges don&rsquo;t just look slick &mdash; they make the screen feel almost endless.</p>
<p>But thankfully, Vivo&rsquo;s software knows what&rsquo;s up: accidental touches are rare, so you&rsquo;re not rage-quitting games because your pinky brushed the curve.</p>
<h3><strong>Vivo V50e: Performance</strong></h3>
<p>Under the hood, the Vivo V50e runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chipset &mdash; a 4nm octa-core processor paired with a Mali-G615 GPU. You get 8GB of RAM across the board and a choice between 128GB or 256GB of storage, depending on how many blurry photos and unused apps you&rsquo;re hoarding.</p>
<p>Now, let&rsquo;s be real &mdash; this isn&rsquo;t the fastest chip in the segment. The benchmark numbers are decent, not jaw-dropping: 6,82,234 on AnTuTu, 1,031 in Geekbench single-core, and 2,978 in multi-core. So no, it won&rsquo;t win a drag race but it doesn&rsquo;t need to.</p>
<p>In real-world use, the V50e holds its own. It&rsquo;s smooth, responsive, and lag-free for the most part. Apps open fast, switching between them feels natural, and casual gaming is totally doable. I played a few rounds of BGMI at 60fps, and it held up impressively &mdash; no stutter, no overheating, just solid gameplay. Even Genshin Impact ran fairly well at medium settings, though you might hit the occasional hiccup when things get too magical.</p>
<p>What&rsquo;s surprising is how cool this phone stays &mdash; even after a gaming session or camera binge, it doesn&rsquo;t turn into a pocket toaster. So, while it's not built for heavy-duty mobile editing or marathon gaming, it&rsquo;ll glide through your daily scrolls, swipes, and reels just fine.</p>
<h3><strong>Vivo V50e: Software</strong></h3>
<p>The Vivo V50e runs FunTouchOS 15, layered on top of Android 15, which sounds promising &mdash; but don&rsquo;t get your hopes up for a Pixel-like experience. If you&rsquo;ve used a Vivo phone in the past year, this will feel very familiar. Maybe too familiar.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s not the cleanest UI around &mdash; bloatware still lives rent-free here, with a bunch of pre-installed apps that you&rsquo;ll probably spend your first 10 minutes uninstalling. But once you&rsquo;re past that, there&rsquo;s a lot to play with.</p>
<p>You get a fair amount of customisation options (themes, animations, widgets &mdash; the usual suspects) and some handy AI features like object remover in photos, instant translation, voice transcription, and Circle to Search. Overall, it&rsquo;s snappy, doesn&rsquo;t lag, and while it&rsquo;s not stock Android, it at least feels modern and light on its feet.</p>
<h3><strong>Vivo V50e: Cameras</strong></h3>
<p>The Vivo V50e keeps things straightforward with a dual-camera setup on the back: a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide, all wrapped in that stylish &ldquo;bottle opener&rdquo; module with the upgraded Aura Light 2. For selfies, you get a 50MP front camera with autofocus, and yes, it&rsquo;s every bit as good as it sounds.</p>
<p>Let&rsquo;s start with the rear. Photos from the main sensor come out sharp, vibrant, and very Instagram-ready. Vivo&rsquo;s default &ldquo;Vivid&rdquo; mode punches up the colors a little &mdash; skies are bluer, trees are greener, and your food pics might look better than the actual food. If you prefer things less extra, switch to &ldquo;Natural&rdquo; mode and enjoy a more realistic color palette.</p>
<p>HDR is excellent, especially outdoors. It brings out detail in both skies and shadows without blowing out highlights. Indoors though, it&rsquo;s more of a mixed bag &mdash; photos are still usable, just not quite as punchy.</p>
<p>You also get Sony&rsquo;s Multifocal Pro Portrait system which includes three focal lengths to play with &mdash; 1x (26mm), 1.5x (39mm), and 2x (52mm). There&rsquo;s no dedicated telephoto lens, so it&rsquo;s all digital zoom magic, but it works surprisingly well.</p>
<p>Portraits look great, with crisp edge detection and pleasing bokeh.</p>
<p>Vivo&rsquo;s Aura Light adds a nice glow to low-light portraits, though in my testing, it&rsquo;s still no match for a proper flash. Night mode, however, is impressive &mdash; it lifts shadows, adds detail, and doesn&rsquo;t go overboard with the brightening.</p>
<p>The 8MP ultra-wide is decent for landscapes and group shots, though it tends to lose sharpness and color accuracy when the lights dim.</p>
<p>Now, let&rsquo;s talk about that front camera, because it honestly steals the show. The 50MP selfie cam with autofocus is one of the best I&rsquo;ve seen at this price point.</p>
<p>Selfies come out sharp, natural-looking, and most importantly, not overly smoothed &mdash; a rare win in this age of default beauty filters.</p>
<p>Of course, this is a Vivo phone, so expect a buffet of features and filters. There&rsquo;s even an India-exclusive Wedding Portrait Studio mode &mdash; three cinematic LUTs designed to give your shots that Bollywood romance vibe. It&rsquo;s fun, if a bit gimmicky, and honestly feels like something you&rsquo;d find on Instagram, but hey, it&rsquo;s there if you need it.</p>
<p>Video-wise, both the front and rear cameras support 4K at 30fps. Footage is mostly clean, though panning shots can be jittery, and contrast-heavy scenes sometimes throw the exposure off. It&rsquo;s good enough for casual vlogging, just don&rsquo;t expect cinema-grade results.</p>
<h3><strong>Vivo V50e: Battery &amp; Charging</strong></h3>
<p>The Vivo V50e comes with a 5,600mAh battery, which is only a modest bump over the V40e, but the real story here is the optimisation. Vivo&rsquo;s clearly been working overtime on power efficiency, and the numbers prove it. In the PCMark battery test, the phone clocked in just under 17 hours &mdash; solid, marathon-level endurance.</p>
<p>In real life, it&rsquo;s just as impressive. With a mix of calls, Netflix, Instagram scrolling, casual gaming, and a few camera sessions, the V50e comfortably cruised through a day and a half without begging for a charger.</p>
<p>Even better &mdash; during a 30-minute YouTube binge, the battery dropped just 2%. &nbsp;So, watching cat videos clearly doesn&rsquo;t come at a cost anymore.Charging speeds are fast enough to not be a nuisance. Thanks to 90W wired charging, the V50e goes from zero to full in about 52 minutes. Not quite warp-speed, but definitely quick enough for most people.</p>
<h3><strong>Vivo V50e Review: Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>The Vivo V50e isn&rsquo;t a spec monster, and it doesn&rsquo;t try to be. What it is, though, is a well-balanced phone with a great display, solid battery life, and arguably one of the best selfie cameras in this segment.</p>
<p>The design feels premium, the performance is more than capable for daily tasks and casual gaming, and while the software still brings along some bloat, the experience is smooth enough to forgive. Just don&rsquo;t expect flagship-level performance, and you&rsquo;ll walk away pretty happy.<br><br><strong>Also Watch: <a href="https://www.editorji.com/tech-news/mobiles/vivo-v50e-the-camera-centric-mid-range-beast-you-can-t-miss-1743507976357">Vivo V50e: The camera-centric mid-range beast you can&rsquo;t miss!</a></strong></p>

Samsung’s new Odyssey OLED G8 monitor delivers 4K resolution, 240Hz refresh rate, ultra-fast 0.03ms response time, and advanced OLED burn-in protection. Designed for serious gamers and professionals, it combines premium visuals with high-performance 

Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 4K 240Hz gaming monitor launched in India

<p>Samsung&rsquo;s Odyssey OLED G8 isn&rsquo;t here to play&mdash;it&rsquo;s packing a 4K@240Hz panel, has near-instant response times, and wild anti-burn tech. Whether you're gaming hard or bingeing Netflix, this monitor&rsquo;s built to blow your eyeballs (and expectations) away.</p>

<p>Samsung&rsquo;s latest gaming monitor isn&rsquo;t just flexing specs&mdash;it&rsquo;s chasing firsts. The Odyssey OLED G8 (G81SF) claims the title of the world&rsquo;s first 4K OLED monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate, and it&rsquo;s not messing around. With blazing-fast response times, Quantum Dot colour, and advanced anti-burn-in tech, this thing looks like it was built for gamers who don&rsquo;t do compromises.</p>
<h3><strong>Two sizes, one goal: Ridiculous clarity</strong></h3>
<p>The monitor comes in 27-inch and 32-inch sizes, but the 27-inch model steals the show with a pixel density of 166 PPI&mdash;which is, frankly, ridiculous. Everything from fast-paced FPS titles to text looks razor-sharp, and the Quantum Dot OLED panel delivers punchy colours, ultra-deep blacks, and excellent viewing angles.</p>
<p>Add VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 into the mix, and you&rsquo;re getting inky shadows and contrast that doesn&rsquo;t need dimmed lights to pop.</p>
<h3><strong>Built-in burn-in protection</strong></h3>
<p>OLED burn-in is a legit concern, but Samsung&rsquo;s taking it head-on with its new OLED Safeguard+ and Dynamic Cooling System. The star here is a Pulsating Heat Pipe&mdash;something we&rsquo;ve seen in smartphones and gaming laptops, but never in a monitor. It helps manage heat without throttling brightness, extending panel life without sacrificing image quality.</p>
<p>There&rsquo;s also a Glare-Free coating certified by Underwriters Laboratories, cutting down on reflectivity by 56% for distraction-free sessions&mdash;whether you&rsquo;re gaming, editing, or just doomscrolling.</p>
<h3><strong>Performance specs that actually matter</strong></h3>
<p>On the gaming side, it&rsquo;s loaded:</p>
<ul>
<li>240Hz refresh rate</li>
<li>0.03ms response time</li>
<li>FreeSync Premium Pro and G-SYNC support</li>
</ul>
<p>Smooth gameplay, minimal latency, and no ghosting. It&rsquo;s everything you&rsquo;d want for high-stakes multiplayer or buttery-smooth single-player campaigns.</p>
<h3><strong>Design, price, and the bottom line</strong></h3>
<p>The Odyssey OLED G8 has a premium vibe: metal chassis, Core Lighting+, and an ergonomic stand. It&rsquo;s meant to stand out, whether on a minimalist desk or a full-blown battle station.</p>
<p>Here&rsquo;s what it&rsquo;ll cost you:</p>
<ul>
<li>Odyssey OLED G8 27&Prime; (G81SF): ₹91,299</li>
<li>Odyssey OLED G8 32&Prime; (G81SF): ₹1,18,999</li>
</ul>
<p>Whether you&rsquo;re chasing frame-perfect flicks or just want your games to look absurdly good, this monitor brings the heat&mdash;no hype needed.</p>

Discover the Samsung Odyssey 3D G90XF: a 27-inch 4K monitor offering 3D gaming and video without glasses. Featuring eye-tracking, AI-powered 3D conversion, and premium specs, it’s an immersive experience for $1,700.

Samsung Odyssey 3D Monitor First Impressions: Check price, features & more

<h2>Samsung&rsquo;s Odyssey 3D G90XF is a 27-inch 4K monitor that brings 2D content to life in 3D with no glasses required, using eye-tracking and AI. With a 165Hz refresh rate, it's set to revolutionize gaming and video experiences. Priced at $1,700.</h2>

<p>Samsung just dropped what might be its most insane monitor ever &mdash; meet the Odyssey 3D G90XF, a 27-inch, 4K display that doesn&rsquo;t just push pixels, it literally brings them to life in 3D. And the best part? No glasses required.</p>
<h3><strong>3D gaming, no glasses, no gimmicks</strong></h3>
<p>At first glance, it&rsquo;s already impressive &mdash; a 4K panel, 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and AMD FreeSync support make it a top-tier gaming monitor. But the real magic lies in what Samsung calls Reality Hub &mdash; an eye-tracking and AI-powered system that turns regular 2D games and videos into full-blown 3D experiences.</p>
<p>Yes, seriously. It maps your eye movements in real time and adjusts the visuals accordingly, so depth perception kicks in naturally, without needing to slap on any 3D glasses. The result? Games and content that actually feel like they&rsquo;re jumping off the screen.</p>
<h3><strong>AI video conversion + game collabs incoming</strong></h3>
<p>The Reality Hub software doesn&rsquo;t just stop at games &mdash; it can convert standard video content into 3D, too. Think YouTube, movies, or even your own recordings. That said, DRM-protected or HDR videos aren&rsquo;t supported, so don&rsquo;t expect Netflix in 3D just yet.</p>
<p>Samsung says you&rsquo;ll need at least an NVIDIA RTX 3080 to run it smoothly, and the Reality Hub driver has to be installed. But if your rig&rsquo;s ready, this monitor is the closest thing to sci-fi display tech you can buy today.</p>
<p>Samsung&rsquo;s also teaming up with game developers to optimise experiences for this tech, including Nexon&rsquo;s The First Berserker: Khazan, with more titles likely to follow.</p>
<h3><strong>Premium tech, premium price tag</strong></h3>
<p>All this next-gen eye candy doesn&rsquo;t come cheap. In the US, the Odyssey 3D is available for pre-order at $1,700, while in India, it&rsquo;s priced at ₹1,27,299. Yeah, definitely a flex &mdash; but for those chasing the bleeding edge of gaming immersion, it might just be worth it.</p>
<p>With spatial audio, edge lighting, and Samsung&rsquo;s best gaming display tech yet, the Odyssey 3D isn&rsquo;t just a monitor &mdash; it&rsquo;s a whole experience.</p>
<p>So, is this the future of gaming? Or just a very expensive way to flex on your Discord server? Either way, we&rsquo;re intrigued.</p>

The Nothing Phone 3a brings bold design, smooth software, and solid cameras to the ₹20K-₹25K segment. But does it hold up against Realme and iQOO’s latest?

Nothing Phone 3a long-term review: Up against some tough choices

<h2><span data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody">Nothing Phone 3a stands out in India&rsquo;s crowded mid-range space with bold design, clean software, and a decent camera &mdash; but is it the best bang for your buck at ₹22,999?&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></h2>

<p>The ₹20,000&ndash;₹25,000 smartphone segment in India is wild! On the one hand, it's exciting because there&rsquo;s a ton of variety and some surprisingly good specs.</p>
<p>But it&rsquo;s also tough&mdash;super crowded and competitive, and to stand out, brands either need to set a trend or quietly fade into the background.</p>
<p>That&rsquo;s the vibe Nothing is going for with the Phone 3a. And let&rsquo;s just say&hellip; it stirred the pot.</p>
<p>We&rsquo;ve been using this as my daily driver even before it officially launched in India&mdash;and I definitely have some thoughts. Also, at the time of writting this article, the phone is going for ₹22,999 on Flipkart, with a ₹2,000 discount on all bank cards. Not sure if that&rsquo;ll change by the time this video goes up.</p>
<h3><strong>Nothing Phone 3a Design</strong></h3>
<p>Anyway, let&rsquo;s start with the design&mdash;This phone is a visual magnet and it almost immediately grabs your attention. And Design is subjective, sure, but in this segment, where most phones are rinse-repeat copies, this one is loud, bold, and fresh. It's also a more mature take on the Nothing phone 2a but at the same it still doesn't take itself too seriously.</p>
<p>Build-wise though it's not the best in class. It doesn't feel as ergonomic in-hand as, say, an Oppo or OnePlus phone with their rounded edges. The frame is plastic&mdash;and not the toughest kind either. This unit has already picked up minor scratches and I have a feeling it's going to only get worse.</p>
<p>Still, the semi transparent back gives it a strong identity. Even before people see the glyph lights, they&rsquo;re going to ask: &ldquo;Hey, which phone is that?&rdquo; And weirdly, we like that..&nbsp;</p>
<p>It looks like a flagship&hellip; even though it doesn't always feel like one. It has Panda Glass protection on both the front and the back, which is a clear cost cutting choice because the older Nothing Phone 2a came with Gorilla Glass 5. Still, it comes with a pre-installed screen protector. I&rsquo;ve been using mine without a case, and surprisingly no scratches.</p>
<p>We were nervous about the white variant getting dirty, but the back has managed to stay relatively clean.</p>
<p>Audio is also Surprisingly immersive. Stereo speakers are loud, with punchy bass and clear vocals. No Dolby Atmos, but thats not a dealbreaker for us. The haptics are on point, and the UI uses them well. Auto-brightness also works really smoothly&mdash;better than expected at this price.<br>The in- display fingerprint scanner is also fast and reliable.</p>
<p>And ofcourse, there&rsquo;s the Glyph Interface&mdash;Nothing&rsquo;s flashy light setup on the back. Personally, I find it more distracting than useful. We tried to like it, but when you're driving or working and it flashes unexpectedly&hellip; it's hard to ignore.</p>
<p>Still, it's very customizable, and the music visualizer is kind of cool, syncing the lights to your music. We have to give a special mention to this dedicated &ldquo;Essential Key&rdquo;, which, even after months of launch, isn&rsquo;t very useful. In fact, it&rsquo;s very easy to take accidental screenshots because of this key&rsquo;s close proximity to the power button.</p>
<p>It takes you to a dedicated Essential Space which is basically a glorified screenshot app with a few smart features. Nothing says they have big plans to build this Essential Space into something big, but we&rsquo;re yet to see much progress. Remapping this key is disabled as of now, but it could change in the future.</p>
<p>Nothing Phone 3a Display</p>
<p>The display is a flat 6.7-inch 10-bit AMOLED with 1080p resolution and 120Hz refresh. Some brands are pushing 1.5K panels in this price range, but not this one.</p>
<p>But I'm fine with the specs here because it's a bright and vivid screen that's great for watching a lot of content.. we binged the latest season of Black mirror on this thing and it holds up&mdash;indoors and outdoors. In fact, this is one of the best phones I've used in terms of screen legibility at this price point.</p>
<h3><strong>Nothing Phone 3a Performance &amp; Software</strong></h3>
<p>Under the hood, you&rsquo;ve got the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, paired with 8GB of RAM and up to 256GGB UFS 2.2 storage. This setup ensures that daily tasks such as browsing, texting, and watching videos are handled with ease. It also scores well on Antutu...</p>
<p>The phone does warm up a bit while playing games and gets hot when using the camera app outdoors; however, the camera app does not shut down nor show any warnings about limiting use. However, the phone always struggled with processing images which is something we also noticed on the Realme P3 Pro which has the same chip.</p>
<p>We also noticed some sluggishness when using the camera app, especially when switching between camera modes or switching cameras.</p>
<p>Now, a lot of folks say this isn&rsquo;t a &ldquo;gaming phone,&rdquo; but it runs BGMI &nbsp;at 90fps smoothly. COD: Mobile works well too and I even tested heavier graphic games like Genshin Impact - it ran just fine at 60fps on medium-high settings. So yeah, we're happy with that.</p>
<p>Now, about the storage type&mdash;UFS 2.2 isn&rsquo;t the fastest, but unless you&rsquo;re transferring giant files or video editing on your phone, you probably won&rsquo;t notice the difference. But we still feel Nothing should have offered at least UFS 3.1 here because some UFS 2.2 phones have been known to lag or have performance issues down the line, especially as apps become more demanding.</p>
<p>Now let&rsquo;s talk software. Nothing OS 3.1 runs on top of Android 15, and it&rsquo;s genuinely charming. The UI has style&mdash;beautiful widgets, consistent iconography, and it&rsquo;s surprisingly practical. Everything feels well-optimized down to the smallest animations. Even small things like the double-tap-to-lock animation feel snappy.</p>
<p>Nothing is promising 3 years of OS updates and 6 years of secuirty updates, which I think is quite reasonable.</p>
<h3><strong>Nothing Phone 3a Battery</strong></h3>
<p>Then, there&rsquo;s the battery. A 5,000mAh cell is big enough, but let&rsquo;s face it, Nothing is competing with Chinese phones in this segment. And most of the new Chinese phones this year are launching with bigger silicon carbon batteries.</p>
<p>Plus, Nothing does not include a charging brick in the box either, which all OnePlus, iQOO and Poco phones do provide. &nbsp;So yeah, Nothing could&rsquo;ve been a lot more aggressive in this department.</p>
<p>But even now, the phone easily lasts me a full day and more with heavy use&mdash;calls, camera, everything. Charging&rsquo;s a bit slow though, capped at 50W, which is behind most of the competition. Takes about 1.5 hours to fully top up with a third-party fast charger.</p>
<h3><strong>Nothing Phone 3a Cameras</strong></h3>
<p><em>Please watch the video for camera samples.</em></p>
<p>The camera department is quite impressive too. The Nothing Phone 3a Pro holds its own with a 50MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 50MP 2x telephoto sensor. The primary camera is especially impressive for the price. It captures crisp, detailed shots in well-lit conditions, with vibrant colours and accurate skin tones.</p>
<p>The 2x telephoto lens is great for portrait photography, offering smooth bokeh drop off and decent edge detection. If you&rsquo;re someone who loves taking portraits, you&rsquo;ll appreciate this phone.</p>
<p>Low-light performance has improved quite a bit over previous Nothing devices. It does a decent job of reducing flare and improving exposure, but it&rsquo;s still not the best around.</p>
<p>The ultrawide camera is also strictly average.</p>
<p>On the video front, the phone can shoot 4K footage at 30fps with the primary sensor, which is more than enough for most casual videographers.</p>
<p>However, the lack of 4K recording support on the telephoto lens is a bit of a letdown, especially since a 50MP sensor can technically support 4K.</p>
<h3><strong>Nothing Phone 3a Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>Bottom line? We&rsquo;d recommend this phone to anyone who wants a head-turning design and a clean, no-nonsense software experience.</p>
<p>But if performance is your priority, the Realme P3 Pro &nbsp;only for 1,000 Rupees more gives you more bang for your buck&mdash;plus, the camera&rsquo;s better too.</p>

Discover the Redmi Watch Move—an affordable smartwatch with AMOLED display, 14-day battery life, 140+ sports modes, and Bluetooth calling, all for just ₹1,999. A budget beast that outperforms expectations.

Redmi Watch Move Review: A budget smartwatch that gets most things right

<h2>Redmi Watch Move is a feature-packed budget smartwatch with AMOLED display, 14-day battery life, 140+ sports modes, and Bluetooth calling&mdash;all at ₹1,999. Easily the best value smartwatch under ₹2,000 in India right now.</h2>

<p>Xiaomi has rolled out its latest budget-friendly wearable&mdash;the Redmi Watch Move. Aimed at users who want essential features without spending a fortune, this smartwatch brings a mix of style, fitness tracking, and day-to-day practicality.</p>
<p>We tested the Matte Silver variant (also available in Black, Gold Rush, and Blue Blaze) to see if it delivers on the basics, and maybe a bit more. Here&rsquo;s our detailed take on what it gets right and where it cuts corners.</p>
<h3><strong>Redmi Watch Move: Design &amp; Build</strong></h3>
<p>Let&rsquo;s be honest most budget smartwatches look budget. But the Redmi Watch Move breaks that pattern. At first glance, it could easily pass for a ₹3,000+ watch. The strap is made of TPU. It's soft, flexible, and doesn&rsquo;t cause any irritation even after using it for a completely day.</p>
<p>Also, third-party straps work with it, so you&rsquo;re not stuck with the one that came in the box.Weighing just 39 grams with the strap, it&rsquo;s incredibly light on the wrist. That&rsquo;s a massive plus for anyone planning to wear it while working out or even sleeping with it on.</p>
<p>The watch is available in Black, Gold Rush, Silver Sprint, and Blue Blaze.On the right side, there's a single crown that actually feels tactile and responsive, which is pretty rare at this price. You can use it to scroll through menus, and surprisingly, it provides tactile feedback.</p>
<p>The watch boasts an IP68 water resistance rating, meaning it should handle being in 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes, without any issues. We put this to the test during a swimming session, and the watch worked without completely fine after the swim.</p>
<h3><strong>Redmi Watch Move: Display &amp; Battery Life</strong></h3>
<p>The Redmi Watch Move features a 1.85-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 390x450 pixels and a 60Hz refresh rate. That&rsquo;s honestly impressive at this price. The screen feels fluid, and animations don&rsquo;t stutter. The 600 nits peak brightness also means you won&rsquo;t be squinting to check the time outdoors.Colours are punchy, and the overall experience feels like something that you would get in watches priced much higher.</p>
<p>However, there are some drawbacks. The bezels are thick and very prominent, especially if you&rsquo;re using lighter watch faces. Also, there&rsquo;s no auto-brightness, which can be annoying if you&rsquo;re constantly moving indoors and outdoors.</p>
<p>Xiaomi has packed in a 300mAh battery, and they claim &nbsp;that it can last up to 14 days on a single charge. In our usage with light notifications, step tracking, sleep monitoring, and occasional workout logging, it actually held up for close to 11&ndash;12 days.</p>
<p>There&rsquo;s also an Ultra Battery Saver Mode, which can stretch things even further if needed. There&rsquo;s no fast charging here, but you get can charge the device completely in around 75 minutes which is reasonable.</p>
<p>For the kind of features it offers, the battery performance is more than fair.</p>
<h3><strong>Redmi Watch Move: Features &amp; Performance</strong></h3>
<p>The Redmi Watch Move runs on Xiaomi&rsquo;s HyperOS, which is surprisingly smooth and snappy. You can scroll through menus, swipe between widgets, and check notifications with zero lag. You get 140+ sports modes, including everything from running and cycling to yoga and dancing.</p>
<p>Some modes come with auto-detection, and while it's not perfect, it works well enough for casual users.For health, you get SpO2 monitoring, heart rate tracking, sleep analysis, stress monitoring, and even female health tracking.</p>
<p>There&rsquo;s also something called a Vitality Score, which sums up your activity for the week, a nice touch for people who like quick summaries.</p>
<p>Redmi claims a segment-best accuracy of 97%, and our testing shows that this is quite accurate. And yes, it supports Bluetooth calling. Call clarity isn&rsquo;t premium, but it&rsquo;s functional enough for quick chats when your phone&rsquo;s in another room.</p>
<h3><strong>Redmi Watch Move: Price and Availability</strong></h3>
<p>The Redmi Watch Move is already available in the market for ₹1,999. It can be purchased via the official mi.com website and Flipkart.</p>
<h3><strong>Redmi Watch Move: Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>Overall, our experience with the Redmi Watch Move has been largely positive. It offers a well-rounded package with a solid design, bright AMOLED display, useful fitness and health features, and dependable battery life. At ₹1,999, the pricing feels more than fair for what you're getting, making it one of the most value-for-money smartwatches in its segment.</p>

<p>The Galaxy Book5 Pro easily ranks among the best-looking Windows laptops around. With its sleek, all-metal chassis, the device oozes premium the moment you pick it up. The matte finish adds a modern, minimalist appeal, while the subtly curved screen bezels give it a dash of personality.</p>
<p>Despite its solid build, this thing is featherlight. At just 1.23kg and 1.16cm thick, it&rsquo;s ridiculously easy to carry &mdash; ideal for everyday commutes, campus life, or just working out of caf&eacute;s.</p>
<p>While the bezels aren&rsquo;t edge-to-edge, they&rsquo;re slim enough to keep the footprint tight and the design clean. The hinge feels smooth and sturdy, and the overall construction is rock solid &mdash; no flex, no creaks, no compromises.</p>
<p>Samsung&rsquo;s port game here is also on point. You get two USB-C ports and a full-sized HDMI on the right, plus a USB-A, microSD slot, and headphone jack on the left. So yes, you can finally skip the dongle drama.</p>
<p>If you&rsquo;re after a thin-and-light Windows laptop that looks sharp and feels legit premium, the Galaxy Book5 Pro more than delivers.</p>
<h3><strong>Keyboard &amp; Trackpad</strong></h3>
<p>The typing experience on the Galaxy Book5 Pro is honestly one of the best I&rsquo;ve had on a Windows laptop. The keys are subtly scooped out, giving your fingers a natural landing spot, and the shallow travel feels crisp and responsive. Each keystroke has a satisfying bounce, and the backlight is bright without being distracting &mdash; great for late-night work sessions. While the keys felt a tad stiff out of the box, they eased up after a bit of use and quickly started to feel just right.</p>
<p>The trackpad, meanwhile, is generously sized and smooth to the touch. It tracks well, supports all the usual gestures, and handles palm rejection like a pro. The only oddity? Only the bottom half of the trackpad clicks. If you&rsquo;re someone who&rsquo;s used to tapping near the top, it takes a little getting used to. It&rsquo;s not a major flaw, but definitely a quirk worth noting.</p>
<p>That said, the overall input experience feels premium. It&rsquo;s reliable, it&rsquo;s responsive, and for the most part, it just works.</p>
<h3><strong>Webcam and speakers</strong></h3>
<p>The speakers on the Galaxy Book5 Pro are surprisingly good &mdash; easily among the best you&rsquo;ll find on a Windows laptop in this segment. Samsung has gone with a dual speaker setup, featuring two 5W woofers and two 2W tweeters, all tuned by Dolby Atmos. The result is clear, detailed audio with well-balanced highs and mids, and even a bit of low-end punch that&rsquo;s rare for laptops. It won&rsquo;t replace a good pair of headphones, but for casual use, it delivers a rich and immersive sound experience that can easily hold its own against even the MacBook Pro.</p>
<p>The webcam, however, leaves a little more to be desired. You get a standard 2MP sensor that performs well enough for video calls and virtual meetings, but the image quality is nothing to write home about. It works best in well-lit environments and holds up fine for most everyday tasks, but it doesn&rsquo;t stand out in a world where premium laptops are slowly moving towards higher resolution cameras.</p>
<h3><strong>Display</strong></h3>
<p>When it comes to screens, Samsung doesn&rsquo;t play around &mdash; and the Galaxy Book5 Pro is proof. With a 14-inch 3K AMOLED touch panel, you&rsquo;re getting a visual experience that&rsquo;s top-tier from the jump. The resolution hits a crisp 2880 x 1800 with a silky 120Hz refresh rate, and it&rsquo;s even VESA-certified for DisplayHDR True Black 500. That&rsquo;s no joke &mdash; it&rsquo;s one of the highest HDR certifications out there.</p>
<p>The colour reproduction is phenomenal. This display covers 120% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut, and here&rsquo;s the cool part &mdash; like true pro laptops, it lets you switch colour spaces depending on the kind of work you&rsquo;re doing. Wild.</p>
<p>Thanks to AMOLED tech, the colours are vibrant, blacks are inky, and everything pops &mdash; even in bright lighting. Samsung&rsquo;s added Gorilla Glass with DX to reduce reflections, and Vision Booster dynamically adjusts contrast and colour saturation based on ambient light.</p>
<p>Whether you&rsquo;re gaming, editing, or just binge-watching, the display is crisp, smooth, and stunning to look at. That 120Hz refresh rate? Makes everything from casual swiping to intense gameplay feel buttery. And for creators, the colour accuracy is no slouch &mdash; this screen can easily keep up with photo and video editing demands.</p>
<p>Honestly, it&rsquo;s one of the best laptop displays I&rsquo;ve used &mdash; almost as good as the M3 and M4 MacBook Pros, which, in my book is high praise.&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>
<p>The Galaxy Book5 Pro doesn&rsquo;t just look premium &mdash; it performs like it too. Under the hood, my unit was kitted out with Intel&rsquo;s new Core Ultra 5 226V processor, 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM (soldered directly onto the SoC for better efficiency), and the Arc 130V GPU with 8GB of shared memory. Oh, and let&rsquo;s not forget the dedicated AI NPU that can push 40 trillion operations per second (TOPS). That&rsquo;s not just future-ready &mdash; it&rsquo;s future-obsessed.</p>
<p>For everyday tasks like browsing, writing, working on spreadsheets, or running multiple apps at once, the Book5 Pro handled everything with smooth confidence. No stutters, no slowdowns &mdash; just clean, snappy performance. But where it genuinely caught me off guard was with how well it handled games.</p>
<p>This is not a gaming laptop, and it&rsquo;s not trying to be. But I fired up GTA V on default settings, and it ran surprisingly well. F1 2024 felt slick and responsive, Doom Eternal held up with consistent framerates, and Valorant? No complaints there either. It&rsquo;s perfect for casual gaming during work breaks or when you&rsquo;re travelling without your console.</p>
<p>That said, where this laptop really flexes is with creative workflows. I threw 1080p video projects into Premiere Pro with layers of colour grading and effects, and it didn&rsquo;t even blink. Photo editing in Photoshop? Just as smooth. It&rsquo;s fast, yes &mdash; but more importantly, it&rsquo;s reliable under pressure.</p>
<p>The Galaxy Book5 Pro is the kind of machine that lets you jump from meetings to media editing to gaming, all without switching gears. Whether you&rsquo;re a student, content creator, or someone who just needs a fast laptop that won&rsquo;t choke under pressure, this one&rsquo;s built to keep up.</p>
<h3><strong>AI features</strong></h3>
<p>Being a Copilot+ PC, the Galaxy Book5 Pro comes with the full suite of Windows 11 AI features &mdash; like live translations, background blur for calls, image generation, and a beefed-up Paint app. But Samsung&rsquo;s gone a step further with some Galaxy AI features of its own.</p>
<p>One of the standouts is AI Search &mdash; basically, Circle to Search from Samsung phones, now on the laptop. Just draw a circle around anything on your screen, and it pulls up Google search results instantly. It&rsquo;s quick, seamless, and genuinely useful.</p>
<p>There&rsquo;s also Galaxy Studio, which uses AI to remaster photos &mdash; fixing shadows, sharpening details, and making casual snaps look post-worthy. It doesn&rsquo;t always hit the mark, but when it does, it&rsquo;s a great time-saver.</p>
<p>Little features like these are what push the Galaxy Book5 Pro from good to great. It&rsquo;s not just a powerful laptop &mdash; it&rsquo;s smart, too.</p>
<h3><strong>Samsung&rsquo;s ecosystem</strong></h3>
<p>What really surprised me with the Galaxy Book5 Pro wasn&rsquo;t just the hardware &mdash; it was how well Samsung&rsquo;s ecosystem is finally coming together. If you&rsquo;ve got a Galaxy phone, features like Camera Share let you use your phone&rsquo;s camera as a webcam &mdash; and the difference in quality is massive. It&rsquo;s one of those small touches that makes a big impact, especially if you&rsquo;re in meetings all day.</p>
<p>This year, Samsung&rsquo;s ecosystem features feel more cohesive than ever. You&rsquo;ve got Quick Share for instantly sending files between your phone, laptop, or tablet. You can take calls directly on your laptop, use your phone&rsquo;s apps on your desktop, mirror your phone screen, and even extend your display using a Galaxy Tab as a second monitor. And unlike past attempts, all of it just works &mdash; consistently and reliably.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s Samsung&rsquo;s strongest attempt yet at matching Apple&rsquo;s Continuity &mdash; and if you live in the Galaxy ecosystem, this laptop feels like the missing piece.</p>
<h3><strong>Battery</strong></h3>
<p>Battery life is one of the Galaxy Book5 Pro&rsquo;s most underrated wins. It packs a 63Wh cell that delivers seriously impressive endurance. While I was expecting around eight to nine hours on a single charge, the laptop consistently stretched to 12&ndash;14 hours &mdash; and that included everything from Photoshop sessions and Netflix binges to light gaming and AI-based tasks.</p>
<p>For a machine this slim and powerful, that&rsquo;s seriously solid. On lighter days, you could easily squeeze out almost two full workdays without needing to reach for the charger.</p>
<p>When you do, charging is quick. You get around 40% in just 30 minutes, and a full top-up takes about an hour. If you&rsquo;re someone constantly on the move, the Book5 Pro&rsquo;s battery life is a genuine strength.</p>
<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>If you&rsquo;re in the market for a premium Windows laptop in 2025, the Galaxy Book5 Pro should be on your shortlist. It matches the MacBook Air in design and finesse &mdash; and in some areas, it might even have the edge.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s got the looks, the power, and one of the best AMOLED displays I&rsquo;ve ever used on a laptop. Whether you&rsquo;re editing content, managing presentations, or casually streaming, the Book5 Pro handles it all effortlessly.</p>
<p>Starting at ₹1,21,990, it&rsquo;s not just a great Windows laptop &mdash; it&rsquo;s one that redefines what thin-and-light machines can do. This one doesn&rsquo;t just tick the boxes, it redraws the checklist.</p>

With the POCO X7 Pro now ₹5,000 cheaper during Flipkart’s Big Savings Days sale, we revisit the phone after 4 months to see if it still delivers. Spoiler: it kind of does.

POCO X7 Pro Long-Term Review – Powerhouse of phone with a catch?

<h2>Four months later, the POCO X7 Pro still crushes gaming, battery, and display performance under ₹25K &mdash; but HyperOS bloat drags it down. Here&rsquo;s our deep-dive review.</h2>

<p>So, it&rsquo;s been about four months since I started using the POCO X7 Pro as my daily driver. And with it now going for a pretty solid discount during Flipkart&rsquo;s Big Savings Days Sale, the big question is: should you grab it when it&rsquo;s ₹5,000 cheaper than launch?</p>
<p>Well, if you&rsquo;re looking to spend under ₹25,000, the X7 Pro still makes a surprisingly strong case for itself.</p>
<p>But there are a few things you need to know before you hit that buy button.</p>
<h3><strong>Poco X7 Pro Design</strong></h3>
<p>Good news first &mdash; the X7 Pro feels solid. I&rsquo;ve been using it without a case, and it&rsquo;s barely picked up any scratches or dents. The vegan leather variant has aged way better than expected &mdash; no peeling, no fraying at the edges.</p>
<p>Now, design is subjective, but honestly, if you&rsquo;re going for the signature yellow-black combo, just know that the cheaper X7 actually looks and feels a bit more premium &mdash; as long as you can ignore that giant Poco logo.</p>
<p>Its curved front and back feel better in the hand, and the centered camera module looks cleaner compared to the Pro&rsquo;s pill-shaped design.</p>
<p>Also worth noting &mdash; the regular X7 gets Gorilla Glass Victus 2, while the Pro settles for Gorilla Glass 7i.</p>
<p>However, the X7 Pro gets an IP69 rating, which is fantastic at this price. And after four months of real-world abuse &mdash; rain showers, coffee spills, even Holi madness &mdash; it&rsquo;s still going strong.</p>
<p>The X7 Pro also feels surprisingly light in the hand despite its big battery &mdash; more on that in a bit. It&rsquo;s easy enough to slip into a pocket without feeling bulky, but the boxy profile and flat sides do take some getting used to, especially if you&rsquo;re coming from a phone with more rounded edges.</p>
<h3><strong>Poco X7 Pro&nbsp;Display</strong></h3>
<p>Now, if you love big and gorgeous looking displays on phones then Poco nailed this one! It &nbsp;features a &nbsp;flat 6.67 inch AMOLED panel with a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. And honestly, after using it for some time now, it still feels great &mdash; especially for gaming and watching content.</p>
<p>No unnecessary curves, no accidental touches, just a nice flat screen that's way easier to handle during long sessions. It's Widevine L1 certified, supports HDR10+, and when you&rsquo;re bingeing Netflix or YouTube, the quality is genuinely top-notch. Plus, it gets plenty bright outdoors &mdash; it peaks at around 1400 nits HBM brightness.</p>
<p>Overall, for a phone under ₹25,000, this is easily one of the better displays in its category &mdash; crisp, smooth, and very practical for daily use.</p>
<h3><strong>Poco X7 Pro&nbsp;Performance</strong></h3>
<p>Speaking of daily use, I&rsquo;ve been genuinely happy with the X7 Pro&rsquo;s performance. It runs on the Dimensity 8400 Ultra, paired with up to 12 GB RAM and 512GB storage. In terms of raw performance, this chipset actually slots in somewhere between the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and 8 Gen 3 based on Benchmark scores, which is pretty great.</p>
<p>Basically, if gaming is your thing, this phone won't disappoint. It glides through BGMI at a smooth 60fps and heating was pretty much non-existent in my usage. The only time I saw the temperature climb &nbsp;was while playing Genshin Impact at 60fps, but honestly, that's understandable &mdash; it's one of the most demanding mobile games out there.</p>
<p>Outside of gaming, the X7 Pro feels consistently snappy, thanks to that fast UFS 4.0 storage. Apps open quickly, multitasking is a breeze, and overall, it still feels fresh even after a few months of daily use.</p>
<h3><strong>Poco X7 Pro&nbsp; Software</strong></h3>
<p>Now, let&rsquo;s get into one of the big drawbacks of the X7 Pro &mdash; the software. It ships with the latest HyperOS 2 based on Android 15, so you're getting the newest Xiaomi experience. But honestly, it still feels messy. The app drawer is packed with bloatware, random system notifications pop up often, and the Glance lock screen ads are just plain annoying.</p>
<p>I had to uninstall a bunch of apps to make it feel cleaner &mdash; and even then, not everything can be removed. If you prefer clean, stock Android, just know this won't be it.</p>
<p>On the plus side, Xiaomi promises three years of Android updates and four years of security patches, which is pretty solid for the price, especially since you&rsquo;re starting with Android 15 out of the box.</p>
<h3><strong>Poco X7 Pro&nbsp;Battery</strong></h3>
<p>One of the big highlights of the Poco X7 Pro is definitely its battery. It packs a massive 6550mAh cell using Silicon Carbon tech, which lets it stay surprisingly slim and light for such a big battery.<br>In real-world use, getting around 9 hours of screen time with mixed to heavy usage was no problem for me.</p>
<p>Of course, how long it lasts really depends on what you're doing. I mean, if you're playing &nbsp;BGMI for like seven hours straight, yeah, it&rsquo;s going to tap out.</p>
<p>But for normal day-to-day use, the battery life is genuinely one of the X7 Pro&rsquo;s biggest strengths.<br>Plus, with 90W fast charging support, recharging doesn&rsquo;t take much time either. You can fill the tank from empty in just 45 minutes.</p>
<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>
<p>So, here&rsquo;s the thing &mdash; after using the Poco X7 Pro for about 4 months, I wouldn't call it the most well-rounded phone, especially if the camera and software experience matter to you&mdash;two areas where it does fall short.</p>
<p>That being said, if your priorities are all about performance, gaming, battery life, and just getting solid everyday speed without spending a fortune, the X7 Pro still makes a lot of sense &mdash; especially now during the Flipkart sale.</p>
<p>For ₹22,999, you&rsquo;re getting a really powerful package that can easily last you a couple of years.</p>
