Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 announced with improved CPU, GPU and AI

Qualcomm has unveiled its latest mid-range chipset, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 as the newest member of its 7 series Mobile Platforms. This fresh release follows the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, which launched in 2024. Interestingly, the new chip keeps the same 1+3+4 CPU core layout as the previous version. In this article, we will take a closer look at Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 including its key features and launch timeline.

Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 Specifications

CPU and GPU

Starting off with the CPU, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 includes one 2.8 GHz ARM Cortex-A720 prime core, three A720 performance cores clocked at up to 2.4 GHz, and four Cortex-A520 efficiency cores running at up to 1.84 GHz. This setup should feel snappy in real-world use, especially with everyday multitasking. Qualcomm claims a 27% jump in CPU performance over the Gen 3, which is a big deal for a mid-range chip.

The chipset features an Adreno GPU that delivers 30% faster graphics rendering compared to the previous generation. Plus, Snapdragon Elite Gaming features are included for better gameplay experiences.

Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 features

Camera and AI

The Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 uses a 12-bit Triple ISP that supports up to 200MP photo capture, just like the Gen 3. What’s really exciting is the real-time 4K60 Video Super Resolution, which keeps your videos crisp even when you zoom in. Also, for the first time in the 7 series, it brings in AI-powered autofocus, auto white balance, and auto exposure. It even adds hardware stabilization, which is great news for video creators.

On the AI side, it supports on-device Gen AI assistants and even runs popular large language models (LLMs) directly on the phone. The addition of Stable Diffusion image generation in this segment feels like a smart move. The chip also promises a 65% increase in AI performance, which makes on-device tasks way faster and more efficient.

Connectivity and Rest

In the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 series, for the first time the Qualcomm’s Expanded Personal Area Network (XPAN) comes. It gives whole-building seamless coverage between your device and earbuds, even if you’re far from your phone. Music lovers will appreciate the Snapdragon Sound support for lossless streaming, along with the Qualcomm Aqstic Hi-Fi DAC, which delivers high-quality sound without distortion.

Furthermore, the chipset supports Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0, keeping it future-ready for fast wireless speeds and stable connections.

Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 Availability

Qualcomm confirmed that HONOR and vivo will be the first brands to use this chip, with their upcoming devices launching this month. Reports suggest that the HONOR 400 and vivo S30 will feature the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 in China. Additionally, there are rumors that the OnePlus Nord CE5 might also include this new chipset.

Oppo launched the Reno 14 series with Dimensity chipset and 50MP triple cameras

Oppo has added two new phones to its Reno lineup under Reno 14 and Reno 14 Pro. Both of these phones run on MediaTek chipsets, feature OLED displays, and pack large 6000+ batteries. In this article, let’s take a closer look at the Oppo Reno 14 and Reno 14 Pro, including their specifications and expected price in Nepal.

Oppo Reno 14 and Reno 14 Pro Overview

Design and Display

To begin with, both phones share a similar shape and look nearly identical. The regular Reno 14 is available in Mermaid, Half Summer Green, and Reef Black. On the flip side, the Reno 14 Pro replaces Half Summer Green with a classy Calla Lily color.

Oppo Reno 14 Pro Design

Moving to the display, Reno 14 sports a 6.59-inch flat LTPS OLED panel. It boasts a 1.5K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and reaches up to 1200 nits’ brightness. Impressively, it has IP66/68/69 ratings for solid water and dust protection. The frame feels premium with its metal body and a velvet-textured glass back.

Meanwhile, the Reno 14 Pro comes with a slightly larger 6.83-inch OLED display. It keeps the 1.5K resolution and smooth 120Hz refresh rate, just like the base model. I really like how Oppo used a single-piece glass body here, which not only looks sleek but also boosts its dust and water resistance under the same IP rating.

Performance and Battery

As for performance, the Reno 14 packs a MediaTek Dimensity 8350 processor. It includes 4x Arm Cortex-A715 and 4x Arm Cortex-A510 cores, along with a 4MB L3 cache. It’s paired with fast LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. This combination easily scores over 1.4 million on AnTuTu, which is quite impressive for a non-flagship phone. You can choose from 12/256GB to 16GB/1TB storage options. And fueling it all is a massive 6000mAh battery with 80W fast wired charging.

MediaTek Dimensity 8450 Chipset

Shifting to the Pro model, it features the Dimensity 8450 processor. This chip comes with one powerful Arm Cortex-A725 core, three more Cortex-A725s, and four additional Cortex-A725s (yup, no A510s here). It reaches the same high benchmark scores and shares the same RAM and storage variants as the standard version. One interesting thing to note is that both phones run on ColorOS 15 based on Android 15, which means you’re getting the latest software right out of the box.

Camera and More

When it comes to cameras, the Reno 14 carries a triple camera setup with a 50MP main lens (with OIS), an 8MP ultra-wide shooter, and a 50MP JN5 3.5x periscope telephoto. Meanwhile, the Reno 14 Pro upgrades the ultra-wide to a 50MP sensor and keeps the other two cameras the same. On the front, both phones offer a sharp 50MP selfie camera, which is great news for selfie lovers.

For heat management, the Reno 14 uses a Nano Ice Crystal heat sink with 4700mm² vapor chamber cooling, while the Pro uses an upgraded Tidal Engine cooling system. This could make a big difference for gamers or heavy users.

Best Budget Gaming Laptops in Nepal [Updated 2025]

Best Budget Gaming Laptops in Nepal [Updated 2025]

Are you thinking of getting a gaming laptop in Nepal, but don’t have a deep pocket? Don’t worry! We have got you covered. While one could easily get decent budget gaming laptops under 1 lakh in previous years, this is no longer the case. The prices of laptops in Nepal have gone up since the beginning of the pandemic. Thus, you need to spend at least 1 lakh for a decent budget gaming laptop. 

How to buy a budget gaming laptop in Nepal?

Let’s first start with the things that you should consider before buying an entry-level gaming laptop. At this price range, you can’t hope for the latest and greatest graphics. The most readily available card for laptops is going to be an RTX 2050 with DLSS support. Sometimes, you might get lucky and score a deal on an RTX 3050 (4GB / 6GB) or even RTX 4050.

As for CPU, you can go with either Intel or AMD as long as you are getting the H-series processors (Intel 13th Gen or Ryzen 7000/8000 series). Instead, pay more attention to RAM and storage. Most gaming laptops under NPR 1 lakh in Nepal ship with 8GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD, which is not enough for gaming in the long run. So, upgrade to 16GB RAM whenever you can, even if it means going over the budget by a bit.

120 – 144Hz screens are common, but higher refresh rates should not bother you much unless you are into competitive gaming. Most laptops in this price range come with panels with 250 nits of brightness and 45% of NTSC coverage. Things like portable form factor, metal body, MUX switch, and RGB backlighting are rare.

You should also pay attention to aspects such as build and thermals. That being said, RGB backlighting should not be a top priority when choosing a budget gaming laptop. Also, make sure the laptop you are purchasing is a genuine one. For this, always opt for reliable and reputable stores whenever possible, even if it means paying some extra bucks.

Best Budget Gaming Laptops in Nepal

Lenovo LOQ 15

And kicking off our list of best budget gaming laptops in Nepal is the Lenovo LOQ 15. It delivers good value with Intel’s 12th Gen i5-12450HX processor, fast 512GB SSD, and dedicated RTX 2050 graphics, which makes it capable of handling most eSports titles and also a bunch of AAA games on medium settings.

The LOQ 15 we’ve seen listed does come with just 8GB of DDR5 RAM, although you can easily upgrade it to up to 16GB via its two SO-DIMM slots.

Lenovo LOQ 15 2024 (i5-12450HX,4050) Review

So yeah, while the Lenovo LOQ 15 isn’t winning in terms of raw performance, particularly because of its RTX 2050 GPU, we absolutely love its display. Since you’re looking at a  15.6″ FHD 144Hz display with 100% sRGB. Yes, 100% sRGB. Besides this, it also has a nice backlit keyboard and Nahimic-tuned speakers to complete the gaming experience.

Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024)

Asus TUF A15 (2023)

The second spot on our list of the best budget gaming laptops in Nepal goes to the Asus TUF A15 FA506 (2023). And compared to the LOQ 15 above, this one has a more powerful CPU and a more powerful GPU as well.

So in terms of CPU, the TUF A15 is powered by AMD’s Ryzen 7 7435HS, which is an 8 cores / 16 threads processor. This has been paired with a 4GB RTX 3050 GPU that can sip up to 75W of power. Whereas in terms of memory, you get 16GB of DDR5 RAM (expandable up to 32GB) and 512GB of PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD storage.

Asus TUF Gaming A15 (2022) Design and Display

Opening the lid leads you to a 15.6-inch IPS-level Full HD display with a 144Hz refresh rate and Adaptive-Sync. It’s not as color-accurate as the LOQ 15, but is perfectly fine for gaming and casual usage. For connectivity, the TUF A15 offers Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, HDMI 2.1, multiple USB-A and USB-C ports, RJ45 LAN, and a 3.5mm combo jack. It runs on a 48Wh battery supported by a 180W charger.

Check out the full specifications of Asus TUF A15 (2023)

Acer Nitro V 15 (2024)

Finally, the Acer Nitro V 15 secures the top spot on our list of the best budget gaming laptops under 1 lakh in Nepal. For just around NPR 106,000, you’re getting the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 paired with AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS CPU, 16GB DDR5 RAM, and 512GB SSD. A combo powerful enough to crush most modern games at 1080p.

And as you may know, one of the biggest strengths of the RTX 4050 is its support for NVIDIA’s DLSS 3 (Deep Learning Super Sampling). This includes a feature called “Frame Generation” that generates entirely new frames using AI, which is a step above the simple upscaling process found on older generations of RTX GPUs.

Acer Nitro V15 2023 Design RTX 3050

This one also doesn’t have as color-accurate a display as the LOQ 15 (covering around 66% of sRGB gamut), but that’s not a dealbreaker. You also get a nice backlit keyboard here and a strong I/O selection, which includes one USB4 (Type-C) and one HDMI 2.1 port.

Overall, the Acer Nitro V 15 is undoubtedly the best budget gaming laptop you can buy in Nepal right now, offering good value for its hardware at just around 1 lakh rupees. And thanks to DLSS 3 support, it punches well above its weight class in gaming performance. Granted that the game you’re playing supports DLSS 3.

Sony WH-1000XM6 goes official with flagship features

Sony has officially launched the WH-1000XM6, the latest generation in its critically acclaimed noise-canceling headphone lineup. The XM6 builds on the foundation of its predecessor with smarter internals, improved noise cancellation, and a refined design. Here in the piece of news, we’ll walk through the specs, features, and expected price of the Sony WH-1000XM6 in Nepal.

Sony WH-1000XM6 Overview

Design

In terms of design, the WH-1000XM6 retains the same clean, minimalist aesthetic introduced with the XM5, but introduces subtle refinements that enhance usability. The headband and earcups now feature a slightly reworked hinge mechanism that allows the headphones to fold inward again—something the XM5 dropped in favor of a sleeker profile. This tweak brings back better portability without sacrificing comfort or style.

Sony WH-1000XM6 Design and Build

A new chip

Under the hood, the WH-1000XM6 is powered by Sony’s new QN3 chip, replacing the older QN1 processor. Sony claims this new HD noise-canceling processor is seven times faster, enabling more intelligent adaptive noise control and potentially sharper sound tuning. The faster processing also helps the headphones respond more quickly to changing environments, ideal for city commuters or frequent travelers.

Sony WH-1000XM6 Case

Sony has also upgraded the microphone array. The WH-1000XM6 features a six-microphone beamforming system powered by AI, aimed at significantly enhancing voice clarity during calls. This addresses one of the minor shortcomings of the XM5, which had good but not great call performance.

Connectivity and Others

The WH-1000XM6 supports Bluetooth 5.3, LE Audio, and multipoint pairing, letting users connect to two devices at once. Whether you’re switching between your phone and laptop or taking calls while listening to music, the XM6 is built for smooth multitasking.

While Sony hasn’t added features like an IP rating for water resistance yet, the refinements in design, processing power, and microphone are commendable.
