Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 (2024) is now available in Nepal!

Looks like Acer is big on expanding its gaming laptop portfolio to smaller form factors. The Taiwanese company recently unveiled a 14” Nitro laptop equipped with the latest Ryzen 8040 processors and now we have a similar offering in the Predator space. The Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 features the latest Core Ultra processors from Intel with up to an RTX 4070 GPU. In this article, let’s take a quick look at the Predator Helios Neo 14, its specifications, offerings, price in Nepal, and availability details. 

Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 Overview

Display and Design 

For starters, this 14” form factor is entirely new for the Predator Helios lineup. We have seen quite a few offerings from the competition like the Zephyrus G14 from Asus and the Blade 14 from Razer but this is Acer’s latest foray. The company does offer its Triton gaming laptops in compact form factors but the ‘Nitro 14’ and the ‘Helios Neo 14’ are the latest additions to the space.

Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 Design

Since the Helios Neo is the pricer offering of the two, it offers better display configurations than the Nitro 14. You can get yourself a WQXGA (3072×1920) at 165Hz, a WQHD+ (2560×1600) at 120Hz, or WUXGA (1920×1200) at 120Hz. As you might have guessed, the laptop comes with a taller 16:10 screen with full sRGB colors and G-Sync compatibility.

Performance and Memory

The performance is where the Nitro and the Predator diverge. While the Helios Neo 14 we are talking about here houses Intel Meteor Lake processors, the Nitro 14 is going to be powered by AMD’s Ryzen 8040 Hawk Point APUs. 

Intel core ultra

You can configure the Predator Helios Neo (PHN14-51) with up to a Core Ultra 9 185H CPU paired with up to an RTX 4070. Cooling is handled by dual fans, liquid metal on the chips, and exhausts. 

As for the memory, you get up to 32GB of LPDDR5x RAM alongside up to 1TB of Gen 4 SSD storage. Unsurprisingly, RAM is not upgradable and you don’t get extra M.2 slots either.   

Connectivity and Extras

Talking of connectivity, you get a fast Intel Killer WiFi 6E card alongside Thunderbolt 4, and a microSD card reader. There’s dedicated Co-pilot and NitroSense keys on the 4-zone RGB keyboard and you also get one month of GamePass Ultimate. The machine weighs about 1.9 kilos in total and will ship with a 1080p webcam and triple microphone setup.

All this is powered by a fairly large 76W battery that juices up via a 230W charger.

Samsung Galaxy S25 “Edge” in the making equipped with “Ultra” cameras

Samsung’s flagbearer for the year 2025 is launching soon enough. However, there are talks of another slimmer option with “Ultra” cameras joining the mix too. Let’s take a further look at the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge in this article.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Rumour Round-up

What’s cooking?

Samsung is apparently looking to create a slimmer variant of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 lineup. The Korean news outlet ETNews reported this news citing multiple industry insiders as its source. While the Galaxy S25 “Edge” may be in the works, it is unclear which of the Galaxy S25 will it be based on.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Design and Display

This Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge might grow to become a replacement for the Plus variant or it might serve as a Special Edition of the Ultra phone. We saw Samsung take a similar approach with the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, which was a little larger and slimmer iteration of the regular Fold6.

Integration of “Ultra” Camera

A recent leak by ICE UNIVERSE suggests that the slim variant of the Galaxy S25 is potentially equipped with an “Ultra” camera setup.

While the exact specifications remain unconfirmed, we can speculate that Samsung might use one or more cameras from either the Galaxy S24 Ultra or the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra series.

If these rumours prove true, the Galaxy S25 Edge could feature the impressive 200-megapixel primary sensor found in the Ultra models. However, the previous tracks show that the slim phone designs offer limited space for extensive camera hardware. So, it will be interesting to see how Samsung’s engineers address this technical hurdle.

On the other hand, the latest news about the camera is quite sceptical because another reliable tipster, Jukanlosreve, indicates that no specifications for the Galaxy S25 Edge have been officially confirmed yet.

 What’s the point?

The main motive of Samsung with the Galaxy S25 Edge is to test the waters. The company wants to see how the market responds to the design change. If the reaction is positive, they might permanently implement the aesthetics from the next lineup i.e. Galaxy S26 series.

Additionally, this could also be a response to the rumours that Apple is working on a slimmer variant of the iPhone 17 as well. Samsung has taken a few pages out of Apple’s book in the past, and it wouldn’t be surprising if that is the case this time as well.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Launch and Availability

As per the rumours, the slim variant will be launching a few months after the main Galaxy S25 lineup. Samsung is doing this so that the new phone does not hamper the sales of its flagship series. Lastly, this phone could just turn out to be the Galaxy 25 FE, as it was tipped to be slimming down as well.

Huawei enters the solid-state battery frenzy with sulphide-based electrolyte

With rising demand for battery-powered devices and batteries by extension to tackle the ongoing climate crisis, it revealed the shortcomings of the current battery technology i.e. Lithium-ion. As such, tech companies are racing towards the next breakthrough in energy storage which appears to be — solid-state battery. Chinese tech behemoth Huawei has also come forth in this race and patented its take on solid-state batteries with a sulphide-based electrolyte.

Huawei Solid-State Battery Tech Overview

Before getting into what Huawei did, let’s understand…

What is a Solid-State Battery?

The current battery tech utilises liquid or gel electrolytes to transport Lithium-ion from anode to cathode. While it is an industry default right now, it isn’t sustainable for the future. These batteries tend to be vulnerable to overheating, thermal runaway, catching fire, and exploding.

Fast charging smartphone

The go-to solution for this has become solid-state batteries, which use solid electrolytes instead. Companies are exploring the use of various materials like sulphides, ceramics, polymers, graphene, and so on. Solid-state batteries have greater energy density, are safer, degrade slower, and dis/charge faster.

What did Huawei do?

So in an effort to figure out the next big battery tech, Huawei has also come up with its take on the solid-state battery. The company has come up with a sulphide-based solution and has patented it. This battery apparently has all the characteristics of a solid-state battery like faster charging speed and higher energy density, while being safer overall. Huawei is aiming to power EVs and energy storage systems with this new battery of theirs.

Huawei Solid-State Battery Tech: Conclusion

We all know of hard Huawei was hammered with the US trade ban. Regardless, the company persists in innovating in various forms. Developing and patenting a solid-state battery could be a crucial move for Huawei considering this tech has the potential to dominate as the energy source of tomorrow.

Other companies are innovating in the field of battery in other ways too. For instance: Huawei’s ex-subsidiary Honor is one of the pioneers in using silicon carbon for battery anode, significantly increasing its yield. Now it has grown to become the industry standard with more and more companies opting for similar kinds of batteries.

Royal Enfield enters the EV market with Flying Flea sub-brand

Royal Enfield enters the EV market with Flying Flea sub-brand

Royal Enfield is a historic motorbike company that has been around for over a century. It represented everything about petroleum vehicles — powerful, proud, and absolute badass. However, with growing environmental concerns and increasing interest and demand in electric alternatives — even Royal Enfield had to chime in. The company unveiled its EV sub-brand — Flying Flea, and we are here to talk about it.

Flying Flea Overview

Before delving into the details of Flying Flea, let’s reminisce…

About Royal Enfield

Initially, Royal Enfield was a British brand founded at the face of the 20th century in 1901. The company has some of the most iconic offerings such as Bullet, Classic, Himalayan, and so on in its catalogue. The “Bullet” line of bikes has a history of its own, first hitting the market in 1932. As such, it has stood the test of time and is the world’s oldest motorcycle in continuous production.

Royal Enfield Bullet 1932

In the 1990s, it was wholly acquired by Eicher Motors — standing on the base of decades of partnership between the two companies. This move effectively transformed Royal Enfield into an Indian Brand. The company is still going strong as ever. It continues to produce retro-style motorbikes with rugged aesthetics and has one of the most fanbases.

Drop Flying Flea

Despite being an icon in internal combustion engine motorbikes, Royal Enfield recognises that the future is electric. Given that, the company has been working on electric alternatives for some time now. Last year, it showcased a battery-powered version of Himalayan — one of its popular offerings, but it never made it to the streets.

Flying Flea Promo

After long leaks and teases, Royal Enfield is finally entering the EV market with its new sub-brand — Flying Flea. While this name sounds like some quirky supervillain from comic books, it is actually a shoutout to the rich history of the company. It is a reference to small, lightweight motorcycles that would be airdropped into enemy territory during the Second World War. Even the promotional material of the Flying Flea shows a motorbike being parachuted down to the ground.

What to expect

Royal Enfield will be launching two motorbikes under the Flying Flea brand name — C6 and S6. We only have information on the former as of now. It will be a cruiser bike with a forged aluminium frame and a magnesium battery case. Furthermore, it has rather thin tyres, and compact battery and motor units.

As such, the FF.C6 is a far cry from the sturdy and heavy build of the motorbike, Royal Enfield is so famous for. This is likely a conscious approach, taken to reduce the strain on the bike’s battery and enhance the range it offers. Other than that, Flying Flea bikes will be receiving OTA software updates like every other EV in the market. Additionally, it will offer wireless charging for your smartphone, which will serve as a key for this bike. Royal Enfield also claims highway-capable speeds and cruise control, but we will have to wait and see about this one.

Flying Flea Launch and Availability

Royal Enfield announced its all-electric sub-brand Flying Flea at the EICMA 2024 held in Italy. As I mentioned earlier, the company will be launching C6 and S6 under the “Flying Flea” moniker. The former has already made it to the company’s official website, urging visitors to register their interest. In contrast, the latter will only see the light of the day later in 2026.

Will Samsung Galaxy S25 continue the dual chipset strategy? Snapdragon or Exynos ?

Samsung’s chipset strategy has been a topic of significant discussion in recent years. While the company has previously partnered with Qualcomm for its flagship devices, it has also been developing its own Exynos processors. The Galaxy S24 series marked a shift with Samsung’s increased use of its in-house Exynos chips (S23 was Snapdragon across the board), now sparking debates about the company’s direction for the upcoming Galaxy S25 series. In this article, we will discuss the possibilities for what processors the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 series might house and let me tell you it’s quite confusing.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Chip Rumors

Latest Developments

Recent leaks have provided insights into Samsung’s plans for the Galaxy S25 series. A benchmark result has surfaced online showing the Samsung Galaxy S25+ (model number SM-S936B) powered by the upcoming Exynos 2500 SoC. That’d suggest a trend similar to the S24s. However, tipster Jukanlosreve claims that this is just for testing purposes and that all the S25 lineups will be using Snapdragon 8 Elite. If that sounded confusing, it is but we’re accustomed to Samsung using both Exynos and Snapdragon chips depending on the region and that pattern might is the one most likely to repeat this generation as well.

Samsung Galaxy S25 using 8 elitePerformance Metrics

In the meantime let’s talk about the information leaked Geekbench shows. The Exynos 2500 (internally coded as S5E9955) comes with 12GB of RAM and runs Android 15. It managed to score 2,359 points in the single-core, and 8,141 points in the multi-core benchmark test.
