Are you aiming to get a new Vivo or Realme phone, but your budget is a bit short? Don’t worry, you can still get yourself a new phone and pay the remaining amount later! And the best part… you don’t even need a credit card or have to pay the interest! Yep! Here, I will explain the process of getting a Realme or Vivo phone on 0% EMI.
Realme/Vivo Phone on 0% EMI Overview
Previously only Samsung provided a service like this in Nepal through Insta Finance. And given its success, Vivo and Realme are also bringing a similar service in partnership with Goodwill Finance. Both brands are highly in-demand in Nepal and introducing 0% EMI will further boost their numbers in the market. This is a net win for the general consumers as well, as they can now get better phones without having to win a lottery or go through the tedious process of issuing a credit card.
What you will need?
Though you do not need a credit card to get a Vivo or Realme phone at 0% EMI, it is not without the need for paperwork. This procedure requires the following documents:
Original citizenship of the applicant
Salary sheet of the applicant
Bank statement for the past three months
Two passport-size photos
Original citizenship of the guarantor
Yes, you will need a guarantor — someone the finance can contact if you are unavailable. They will also be responsible for paying back the debt if you fail to do so or go contactless.
Additional things to remember
There are a few more things that you need to remember before you get the Vivo/Realme smartphone of your dreams at 0% EMI:
The credit tenure will only be for 12 months
You will have to pay a downpayment of 40%
Financing is only available for phones above NPR 20,000
The phone will be locked such that you cannot use it if you fail to pay the installment
vs. what we already have
Banks
EMI or 0% EMI isn’t anything new to the Nepali market. It has been available for years now. However, to get an EMI, you would need a credit card from whatever bank the vendor was partnering with. And given the nature and scale of banks, it could be a hassle with heavier paperwork and longer waiting times.
After the EMI is done, deciding whether to continue or discontinue your credit card is a decision that consumes the life force out of you. If you decided to shut down the service, it was another headache. If not, wallah, annual and maintenance charges. There was so much going on.
Insta Finance
Well, I have already told you Samsung is the pioneer in providing 0% financing on its devices. So, why not compare 0% EMI Vivo and Realme have introduced on their phones to Samsung Insta Finance for a bit? That being said, Samsung offers longer credit tenures and accepts wider documents as a basis for financing too. For instance, you do not need to submit a salary sheet, if you opt for an EMI from your permanent residence.
Likewise, Samsung has Knox security built into the phone, which makes it much tougher to crack into the phone. Meanwhile, the same cannot be said for Vivo and Realme as they rely on some third-party apps.
Realme/Vivo Phone on 0% EMI: Conclusion
Introducing 0% EMI on Realme and Vivo phones makes them approachable and affordable to customers. Now customers can only have 40% of the amount in hard cash and pay the rest in small sums which is more manageable than piling up the remaining 60% at once. You can get the financing done from all the authorised retail stores offering Vivo and Realme phones, including the Hukut Store.
Honor has launched yet another budget midrange smartphone under the Rs. 25,000 price bracket with the X7c joining the ranks alongside the X7 and X7b. This time the spotlight is on water resistance and durability more than anything. So, let’s begin this review of the Honor X7c by splashing some carpets, shall we?
Honor X7c Specifications
Design: Flat frame and edges with monotone, patterned or chequered back panel, IP64-rated
Dimensions: 166.90 mm x 76.80 mm x 8.09 or 8.24 mm
I might be one of the few people with the privilege of getting to dip a brand-new phone in a bowl full of dihydrogen oxide and not worry about the consequences. Sure, flagship phones can pull it off without a sweat, but a phone that costs less than a quarter of that? That’s impressive.
Reading the fine print, the keen-eyed of you might have noticed that the phone only sports an IP64 rating against dust and water. While that’s good news for an affordable bro, it’s nothing special in the grand scheme of smartphone durability. But Honor, the brand we’ve come to know and love, has done a great job at marketing the piece as ‘all angle water resistant’ and ‘splashproof durability’ all of which is technically true but maybe not as impressive as their marketing might have you believe.
They say the smartphone can survive up to 3 minutes up to a depth of 0.2 meters but understand that the IPX4 rating is only meant for protection against water splashes and not full-on submersion. Regardless, the company is confident that it’ll survive your accidental wash in the rain or a drop in the pool. And for that, I can say…it survived the basin test, and will probably work fine after a pool drop, but I wouldn’t try testing the limits if I were a normal joe.
Falling Again!
5-star Swiss SGS Premium Performance Certification for Drop and Crush Resistance
Now that it’s survived the first stage, let’s move on to a different kind of torture. IMPACTS. The Honor X7c has an ‘SGS Premium Certification for Drop&Crush Resistance’ and is advertised as having 5-star drop resistance. But I won’t be proceeding too far with this one. Just a couple of back and corner drops onto the carpet floor, and the X7c is doing fine. There’s more to it than that but I am fine with not getting my hands any dirtier at this point, so let’s just review it like any other smartphone now, finally!
Design
166.90 mm x 76.80 mm x 8.09 or 8.24 mm
199 (Black) or 201 (Green, White) grams
Let’s talk normal now. A quick glance and the Honor X7c looks like most affordable smartphones. It’s a rectangular brick with glass on the front, plastic frames, and a plastic back. The ‘Forest Green’ that I used for the majority of my testing period has a faux leather-like back instead that feels a tad more premium but it’s not anything extraordinary you’d worry about missing out. Your alternatives: Midnight Black and Moonlight White also have their own things going for them. The Black looks minimal and classy, while the patterned Moonlight White is more on the elegant and shiny side. All three weigh and measure pretty much the same with decent weight distribution not feeling too heavy.
Display
6.77″ TFT LCD, HD resolution, 120Hz, 850 nits
The display though is a bit underwhelming given all the praise I have bestowed on the X7c thus far. It’s a TFT LCD screen which is fine for the price (some competition do offer AMOLED) but the resolution here is just 720p which I personally find to be a little sub-standard for a modern-day smartphone.
Regular scrolling and UI browsing is fine but open Instagram to check photos of your favorite celebrity or YouTube for highlights of a late-night soccer game, and you’ll notice something’s off. It doesn’t feel as sharp or crisp as it should and the reason here is the X7c’s low res display.
The lower resolution also adds to a worse multimedia experience in OTT platforms like Netflix where DRM is active. The X7c is Widevine L3 compliant so you can only stream SD content (480p) which was not very fun. It is not unheard of at this price point, but I’d have traded off the fast 120Hz refresh rate for a 1080p panel any day of the week.
Speaking of the refresh rate, it’s definitely fast but mostly runs at either 60Hz or 90Hz outside of the UI. That’s not to discredit its fluidity but I just thought I’d mention it as something to keep in the back of your head. The chipset can handle everyday workloads reliably so there were only a few instances of choppiness or frame drops during my review.
Taking the smartphone for a spin outdoors, I was quite okay with its brightness and glare control too. It’s not as bright as something like the Redmi Note 13 (4G) but that’s understandable since the Redmi has an AMOLED panel while this one doesn’t. For a regular joe, the screen is workable outdoors but you might struggle under direct sunlight.
Speaker and Haptics
Stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos
Despite being a budget Honor device, the X7c has dual stereo speakers which get loud, especially at the 300% level but that option does make the sound cranky so I’d suggest sticking to the normal 100% maximum volume for most of your needs. Watching a few videos and listening to some songs, I came to the realization that this is a pretty good set of speakers for a relatively affordable phone.
Haptics are disabled throughout the UI by default and pretty tame in terms of intensity during calls and alerts. Nothing interesting really, just your plain Z-axis motor doing some Zzzzs on repeat.
Performance
Octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 685 (6nm Mobile Platform)
8GB LPDDR4X RAM, 256GB UFS
Under the hood, the Honor X7c is running with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 685 engine. It’s not the most powerful chip out there but a pretty reliable performer for this price segment. Based on a 6nm process, it’s one of the older choices but has decent efficiency thanks to low-power A53 efficiency cores. The smartphone feels pretty fluid in day-to-day use with minimal stutters or slugginess thanks in part to the chip and also the high refresh rate screen. However, one of the key players here is also the memory type and configuration.
1 of 4
Geekbench 6
Antutu V10
CPDT
The sole variant of the X7c available in Nepal has 8GB RAM and UFS storage. It’s not uncommon to see the slower eMMC storage being used in this price bracket to cut costs but Honor has traversed the right route here by providing a UFS-based solution. This makes a noticeable difference in day-to-day operations from opening apps to loading files. Multitasking feels fast too especially paired with the sufficient 8GB of LPDDR4x RAM. But at the end of the day, the X7c is a lower midrange device after all, so expect some slugginess from time to time like opening big documents or switching between games.
Gaming
On that topic, I played a few casual games on the X7c to test the waters. Since the 685 is a tried and tested processor, there are not many surprises in this regard. You can play most games on the Play Store without many problems but dial down the settings to low or medium for more demanding titles like PUBG or any HoYo game (Genshin, Honkai Impact…). Here’s the stability chart for a quick reference.
1 of 3
Both PUBGM and CODM can run at a maximum of 40 fps on their lowest graphic settings. The frame output is stable with very few noticeable dips so the gameplay experience is enjoyable. Unfortunately, a proper gyro is missing on the device for those of you looking to take gaming a little more seriously. But like I said before, this is not geared towards gamers by any angle and you are better off adding a few thousand rupees extra and getting something like the CMF Phone (1) with the Dimensity 7300 with its more powerful A78 cores and GPU.
Software and UI
Android 14 with MagicOS 8.0 on top
On the software end, MagicOS is pretty easy to get used to. It does look a tad different to the stock Android 14 but except for the left & right notification/control center shenanigans, I don’t have any personal gripes with the UI skin. In terms of support, there’s no official talk but you can expect the next Android version (v 15) to drop in a few months.
There are also some pre-loaded bloatware alongside ads here and there from time to time. But most budget-midrange offerings are plagued by a similar issue and you can always delete or disable most of these anyway.

Camera
Dual camera setup at the back
(108MP primary, 2MP depth)
8MP selfie camera (notch cutout)
Daylight and Portraits
Leading the charge on the X7c is a 108MP main sensor aided by a 2MP depth camera for portraits. Photos are vibrant with boosted colors and good details. Even the 2x crop shots look appealing without heavy loss of sharpness. Human subjects do turn out a bit softer than natural and even after disabling all the beauty filters, I couldn’t find a way around this skin smoothing.

In terms of portraits, you get acceptable results but I was hoping for a bit more here. Having a dedicated 2MP lens is useless if the depth of portraits is non-existent. I know I shouldn’t be going too harsh on what is a relatively affordable smartphone but this guy skips out an ultrawide AND the depth lens isn’t very effective at what it should be doing. The 2x cropped portraits on the other hand look more pleasing with better depth. But the face smoothing becomes extra apparent and there’s not as much sharpness.

Selfies
In terms of selfies, the Honor X7c is good enough with skin tones and details. But like with normal rear shots, highlight control is a bit of a struggle for this budget contender. There’s some smoothing too but most people prefer their selfies look good than realistic. Hence, the overall front cam performance is solid in my books.
Video and Lowlight
And that carries over to video too. The selfie performance for vlogging and such is very good with stable footage that has good details. But, on the flip side, the rear camera performance is terrible for any that’s moving. It’s super shaky and you don’t get any kind of optical or electronic stabilization. Both are limited to 1080p 30fps which is a bit of a bummer.
For lowlight images, the Honor X7c isn’t particularly well equipped because of its small sensor and lack of OIS. Try out the Night Mode for better light control and boosted sharpness for times when it’s getting dark.
Battery and Charging
6,000 mAh
35W fast charging
The Honor X7c is a battery champ with its large 6000 mAh cell. It’s not that fancy Silicon Carbon stuff that we see in higher-end phones and the brand has managed to fit in a regular ol Lithium Polymer cell without adding extra bulk. In my week or so of use, I only had to charge the device a couple of times, so roughly 2/3 days of light load. For a normal user, I would still say that this is easily a 2-day phone but you can run it down pretty low if use the camera consistently with cellular data enabled outdoors. One day, I managed to knock it down from 80% to 26% with about 5-6 hours of screen time but for most others, it only ran through 30-40% through the day. For fill-up, you get a 35W fast charger in the box that can fill about 35-40% in half an hour and fully fill in about an hour extra.
Honor X7c Review: Conclusion
The Honor X7c is an interesting offering in the sub-25k bracket with a spotlight on durability and splash resistance. It’s got superb battery life, a good-looking design, and surprisingly appealing selfies. Moreover, the software is clean and light and the Snapdragon is a reliable everyday performer. Even bits and pieces like stereo speakers, and 35W fast charging are good offerings for the price. But ultimately the 720p LCD screen lets the X7c down. Despite its high refresh rate, the low res screen is just subpar compared to most competition.
So relative to the Honor X7c, something like the Redmi Note 13 (review) or the upcoming Note 14, Realme’s 12X, are better overall options for the price. Furthermore, I recommend adding just a few extra thousand and considering phones in a 30,000 rupee ceiling. Then, Nothing’s CMF Phone (1) and Samsung’s A16 5G also become viable options with upgrades to performance and cameras across the board.
Here’s where we had a little fun with the Honor X7c:
Foodmandu, Nepal’s first food delivery service, has launched One Mart, promising home delivery of groceries in record time. Let’s explore this service in detail.
Foodmandu One Mart Service
Celebrating its 14th anniversary, the company has expanded its services with this new vertical that guarantees grocery delivery within just half an hour. Currently operating within a 3 km radius of its main location in Gairidhara, One Mart serves areas including Maharajguj, Dhumbarahai, Baluwatar, and Maitidevi. You can place your orders between 7 AM and 9 PM with a minimal delivery charge of NPR 50 (for now). The company plans to expand both its product range and delivery coverage throughout the Kathmandu Valley.
“Our commitment to evolving with our customers’ needs has been a driving force behind Foodmandu’s journey. And with Foodmandu One Mart, we aim to make everyday shopping as easy and seamless as ordering your favorite meal.” Manohar Adhikari, Founder, and Managing Director of Foodmandu
How to use One Mart Service?
Existing Foodmandu users can access One Mart directly through the main app, where they’ll find the new “One Mart” category between the “Home” and “Inbox” sections. But if you are a new customer you will need to download the Foodmandu app to access the service. However, this feature is only available in IOS for now.
1 of 3
The platform offers various categories of daily household items with a 3% discount on all products. Given Foodmandu’s strong track record in delivery services (despite occasional delays), the new service shows promising potential. As a regular Foodmandu user, I’m excited to see how One Mart service can make grocery shopping quicker and more convenient, especially with the promise of 30-minute delivery!
To celebrate its 14th anniversary, Foodmandu has also launched the Fantastic 14 Sales campaign, featuring attractive offers including 70% discounts, combo offers, buy-one-get-one (BOGO) deals, Category Crunch specials, a 14–Bite Platter, 14–day–14 mega offers, and 14th–hour Flash Sales.
Lenovo’s latest iterations of 2-in-1 portables are now available in Nepal in both Intel and AMD flavors. So here, let’s take a quick peek at the Lenovo Yoga 7 (2024) price in Nepal, it’s 2-in-1 capabilities, price in Nepal, and availability details.
Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 (2024) Overview
Design and Display
The Yoga is Lenovo’s 2-in-1 lineup of computers with 360º hinges and touch displays. Both the Intel (14IML9) and AMD (14AHP) variants of the Yoga 7 are well-built with an aluminum body weighing around 1.5-1.6 kilos. They ship with either IPS or OLED displays and feature an anodized finish on their lids.
Talking more about the panels, both versions are available in Nepal with a 1200p resolution. But they differ drastically in terms of colors and contrast. The IPS equipped Yoga 7 can only cover around 45% of the NTSC colors while the OLED has 100% DCI P3. Moreover, the true blacks on the OLED is inherently better and it also reaches a 100 nits higher at max brightness.
Performance and Memory
As I said before, you can buy the Yoga 7 (2024) with either Intel or AMD processors but there’s a catch. The Intel configurations can have either low powered ‘U’ CPUs or higher end ‘H’ chips while AMD options are limited to their ‘HS’ class. All feature a dedicated NPU (Neural Processing Unit) for accelerating AI related workflow so both versions of the Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 (2024) qualify as ‘AI PCs’ and support Microsoft’s Co-creator and Studio Effects (if you’re into that at all).
Moving onto the memory side of things, the Intel versions ship with 16GB and 32GB configurations while you can only go up to 16 on the AMD Yoga 7. That’s still good enough for most everyday folks but remember, the LPDDR5 (or 5x) RAM is soldered to the motherboard so future upgrade prospects is close to nill here. I say that because if you do get a smaller 512GB machine, you can upgrade to a higher 1TB or 2TB bracket by swapping the M.2 2242 SSD with a higher capacity one. That being said, no extra slots here!
Connectivity and Extras
The Wifi (6E) and Bluetooth (5.3) card can be swapped though and you do have plenty of ports for external storage media. Two Thunderbolt 4s (or USB 4 on the AMD one), a single USB 3 Type-A, and a microSD reader to be precise. There’s also a full sized HDMI 2.1 and a 3.5mm audio jack on the left side of the machine while a dedicated power button sits on the right.
Fueling everything is a 71Wh Lithium battery that powers via the Type-C port with the provided 65W adapter. There’s a fingerprint reader alongside IR camera for security, a white backlit keyboard, and the Lenovo Digital Pen for stylus input.
Ports: 2x USB 4 / Thunderbolt 4 Type-C, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 1x HDMI 2.1, 1x microSD card reader, 1x 3.5mm jack
Connectivity: Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3
Battery: 4-cell 71 Wh
Security: Fingerprint reader, IR blaster (Windows Hello)
Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 (2024) Price in Nepal
The Yoga 7 starts at NPR 96,000 for the Ryzen 5 variant and goes all the way up to NPR 151,000 for the Core Ultra 7 with an OLED screen. You can buy the Yoga 7 from our affiliate partner Hukut Store or other retail sellers across Nepal.
While Samsung is still preparing to launch its most premium offering — S25 Ultra, Itel has dropped the same phone (at least the name is the same). It’s not a one-off move from Itel though, as they have launched the likes of S24, S23+, and S23 before this. In this article, let’s take a detailed look at what Itel has done with its take on the S25 Ultra and also discuss its potential price in Nepal.
Itel S25 Ultra Overview
Design and Build
Looking at the design, it is apparent from where Itel draws inspiration for its S25 Ultra. While the real deal is slowly shying away from curved frames and edges, this one proudly flaunts it. It also has a dual-tone finish that differentiates it further from Samsung’s offering. While the Komodo Ocean option has a flair of its own with a patterned back panel, the Bromo Black and Meteor Titanium colours are reminiscent of the Galaxy phone.
Other than that, the Itel S25 Ultra is one tough unit — vigorously tested for durability. It is IP64-rated for dust and water resistance as well. Furthermore, the company confidently says this phone has survived micro drops up to 25,000 times. This toughness is thanks to the TitanShield protection, comprising of four design components such as silicone sealing rings, an integrated metal inner frame, an outer cover made of the same material as racing car chassis (magnesium-aluminium alloy), and coated protection film.
Display and Camera
On the front, it has a 6.78-inch curved AMOLED screen that stretches FHD+ in resolution, refreshes at a rate of 120Hz, and achieves a peak brightness of 1,400 nits. It offers an instant touch sampling rate and PWM dimming of 1,500Hz and 2,160Hz respectively. Meanwhile, the screen is capable of displaying 1.07 billion colours while covering 100% DCI-P3 colour space. It is layered with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i for added durability and supports touch commands from wet as well as oily hands.
Talking of optics, we are looking at a dual camera setup at the back and a 32MP front unit. The main camera on the Itel S25 Ultra is a 50MP sensor, accompanied by a macro lens of unspecified resolution. The other cutouts on the back aren’t dummy units as we see on a lot of budget phones. The one right below the actual cameras is a customisable RGB light, while the ones on the side are an IR blaster and a regular flashlight respectively.
Under the hood, this phone has a UNISOC T620 as its primary driver. It is relatively fresh silicon out of the foundry with eight cores and a peak clock speed of 2.2GHz. The Itel S25 Ultra ships with a single memory option of 8GB. It allows users to extend the RAM virtually. Meanwhile, you get three storage options: 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB. Users are likely stuck with the default storage as the company does not mention anything about expandable storage.
In the tank, it has the standard 5,000 mAh battery and supports 18W of fast charging. The Itel S25 Ultra is equipped with a graphite cooling system to keep the thermals in check. This phone comes with a bypass charging feature too, which directly juices up the system instead of the battery during gaming. This also prevents the phone from overheating while preserving the battery’s health. Software-wise, it boots on itelOS 14.5 based on Android 14. Users can upgrade it to later versions of Android as well.
Itel S25 Ultra Specifications
Design: Dual-tone design with curved frames and edges, TitanShield Protection, IP64-rated
The company launched this phone in the Philippines alongside the regular S25 for PHP 10,999. Given that, if the Itel S25 Ultra arrives in Nepal, we expect its price to be NPR 30,499.

After the grand success of Ultima Boom 311 (selling 4K units in just 12 hours), the Nepalese Lifestyle company has now launched Ultima Boom 211 at a budget price. This new in-ear TWS boasts 10mm High-fidelity dynamic drivers, an IPX4 rating, and more. Without further ado, let’s get into the specs, features, and official price of the Ultima Boom 211 in Nepal.
Ultima Boom 211 Overview
Design and Build
Starting with the design, the Ultima Boom 211 boasts an in-ear long stem design. The charging case also features a small display to show battery percentage. Likewise, you get an IPX4 rating against sweat and water splashes on the earbuds. Ultima ships this TWS in two color options: Space Black and Pearl White.
Audio
In terms of audio, the Ultima Boom 211 relies on 10mm High-fidelity drivers. The company claims 3X more detail with HiFi Audio Experience, a bold claim for a budget TWS. As expected there is no ANC here but you do get AI ENC for passive noise cancellation with Quad-mic setup. Moreover, there is a 45ms low-latency mode for gaming as well.
Moving on, the TWS is said to last for up to 45 hours, combined with the charging case. Likewise, 10 minutes of charge can give you around 2 hours of playtime. For connectivity, it connects via the Ulltima Link app and Bluetooth 5.4. Furthermore, it also supports swift pairing.
Ultima Boom 211 Specifications:
Design: In-ear, silicone tips
Drivers: 10mm Hi-Fidelity delivers
Noise Canceling: ENC
Connections: Bluetooth 5.4, HyperSync
Features: 45 ms low latency
Battery: 45 hours of playback (combined)
Charging: Fast charging (10 minutes = 2 hours of playback)
Ugreen is a Chinese OEM brand that offers various accessories in the Nepali market. They just added new headphones to their product list, offering high-quality LDAC codec and hybrid active noise cancellation. Let’s talk more about the Ugreen HiTune Max5C headphones along with their price in Nepal.
Ugreen HiTune Max5C Overview
Design
The headphones from Ugreen come in an over-ear fitting and diaphragm speaker unit. They are lightweight at just 260 grams, making them comfortable to wear. It has thick memory foam over the speaker unit that reduces pressure on the contact point providing added comfort when using them. Moreover, the foam is layered with vegan leather giving the Ugreen HiTune Max5C a premium look.
Furthermore, the headrest is adjustable in length, and foldable too, making them easier to carry around. In the meantime, all the controls and indicators on these headphones sit on the right earcup. They ship in two colour options, the classics — Black, and White, where the latter option has a beige-coloured finish.
Moving on to the audio, the Ugreen HiTune Max5C has large 40mm units as its drivers. It is equipped with Bluetooth v5.4 to connect with your smartphones. Additionally, it comes with LDAC, which is often regarded as the best codec available and preserves the audio quality highly. These headphones offer noise cancellation of up to 38dB and work in ambient and normal modes, while an option to entirely turn it off is there as well. They also support environmental noise cancellation for a clear calling experience.
Similarly, they can establish connections with multiple devices at once and allow you to customise through the Ugreen app. You can choose between various presets and use them wired or wirelessly. When opting for the latter medium, these headphones last about 45 hours straight when the ANC is turned on. If you turn the ANC off, the playtime increases substantially to 75 hours. They also support fast charging, where plugging it in for just five minutes translates to 5 hours of usage.
Ugreen HiTune Max5C Specifications
Design: Over-ear, Retractable, Collapsible
Weight: 260 grams
