Motorola Razr 40 Ultra is coming soon to Nepal

Motorola is no new name in the foldable phone market. The brand unveiled the 2023 flip iterations: the Razr 40 and Razr 40 Ultra a few months ago and the latter one is launching soon in Nepal too. And in this article, we’ll be going through all the details, specs, and expected prices of the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra in Nepal.

Motorola Razr 40 and Razr 40 Ultra Overview:

Design

Going by the design, the Razr 40 Ultra bears the same form factor as its younger sibling, the Razr 40. Like all the other clamshell foldables, the back of this phone is also divided into two portions. The lower half is made of matte velvet AG (anti-glare) glass and has both the Motorola and Razr logos.

Design

It uses a 7000-series aluminum for the frame. Motorola says it has managed to reduce the hinge components to 85 parts here, which allows this phone to be used in tent mode as well as in multiple angles. You get Gorilla Glass Victus protection on the Ultra model, while the vanilla Razr 40 has a plastic back. Similarly, this phone is IP52-rated against dust and water drips.

Display

Cover display

The biggest highlight, however, is definitely the larger cover display on the Razr 40 Ultra. Compared to the 7.7-inch cover screen on the Razr 2022, this guy has an almost edge-to-edge 3.6-inch AMOLED display with a 1066 x 1056 pixel resolution.

So, this 10-bit panel also dethrones OPPO’s Find N2 Flip which previously held the top spot for the biggest cover display on a clamshell foldable that measures 3.26 inches. Furthermore, it is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus and bears a 144Hz fast refresh rate.

Main display

Coming to the main display, the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra sports a 6.9-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a whopping 165Hz refresh rate. This FHD+ panel has HDR10+ support and 1400 nits peak brightness too. Here, Motorola has also used Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG) with 5 layers of protection, while maintaining no gap when closed thanks to the teardrop hinge mechanism.

Performance

Under the hood, Razr 40 Ultra is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor; instead of the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. This chip is paired with up to 12GB RAM and 512GB storage. This clamshell boots on Android 13-based My UX out-of-the-box, while Motorola has also promised 3 OS updates for this phone.

Cameras

Moving to the cameras, you get a dual camera setup on both Razr siblings. The Ultra model houses a 12MP primary shooter with OIS and a 13MP ultrawide unit that can also take macro shots. Here, the cameras and LED flash come protruding from the cover display. Up front, it sports a 32MP snapper for selfies and video calls.

HMD Fusion arrives with replaceable and customisable back covers

HMD Fusion arrives with replaceable and customisable back covers

After launching a one-of-a-kind collab phone with Mattel, HMD is back on track with their “regular” repairable phones. Their latest offering takes a page from CMF Phone 1‘s book, allowing users to replace the back panel with first-party “Fusion outfits” or go a little custom even. Anyway, this article will discuss the HMD Fusion in further detail along with its price in Nepal.

HMD Fusion Overview

Design and Outfits

As I mentioned earlier, the HMD Fusion comes with replaceable backs similar to the CMF Phone 1. However, unlike the CMF offering, users don’t have to screw down the back panel every time they change it. They can simply snap into place — thanks to the Smart Pin which sits near the the phone’s bottom edge. HMD Fusion comes in Black with an exposed back and a visible battery pack by default. Despite its open nature, it is still IP54-rated — able to shrug off specs of dust and splashes of water with no issue.

HMD offers four “Fusion Outfits” (replaceable covers). Firstly, there is the casual outfit which is a basic translucent cover that comes in Blue, Magenta, and Green colours. Then there is a wireless charging outfit which does exactly what it sounds like, available in Turquoise, Black, and Magenta. Next up, they have the rugged outfit that comes in a single black colour option and gives the phone extra protection against drops and such. Lastly, there is the flashy outfit which will ship in Blue and Magenta colourings and is basically a ring light built into the phone cover. If any of those options don’t resonate with you, then you can 3D print a custom Smart Outfit using the HMD Fusion Development Toolkit V2.0.

Technical Aspects

Moving on to the phone’s hardware, it has the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 on the driver’s seat. It is accompanied by either 6GB or 8GB of memory coupled with 128GB or 256GB storage. Furthermore, HMD Fusion allows you to extend the memory and storage of the phone by up to 12GB virtually and up to 1TB via MicroSD card respectively.

On the front, it has a 6.56-inch LCD panel with HD+ resolution. Additionally, it can go as bright as 600 nits and offers a smooth 90Hz refresh rate. Talking of the cameras, it has two on the back. The primary shooter is a 108MP unit with autofocus and EIS. It is assisted by a measly 2MP depth sensor. In the meantime, HMD Fusion has dedicated a 50MP camera for the selfies. Everything is powered by a 5,000 mAh battery with 33W charging support.

In a true HMD fashion, this phone features Gen2 repairability allowing you to easily swap out the display, back cover, battery, and charging port when needed. This separates the HMD Fusion from CMF Phone 1 because, unlike the HMD, CMF does not allow manual repair of its phone to the users. Also, the Finnish company will be providing spare parts on iFixit for the coming seven years.

HMD Fusion Specifications

Dimensions: 164.15 mm x 75.50 mm x 8.32 mm

HMD Fusion Price in Nepal and Availability

The phone was announced on 5 September 2024 with a starting price tag of EUR 249. Similarly, it will cost GBP 199, at least for the British chaps. Meanwhile, their cross-Atlantic neighbours will only receive the phone after some time. While there’s that, we Nepali folks will not get this phone in our hands, as the brand is simply non-existent in our country. However, if the HMD Fusion did arrive in Nepal by some miracle, we expect its price to start at NPR 44,499.

Honor MagicBook Art 14 comes with a detachable webcam and two CPU platforms

Even though the Honor MagicBook Art 14 has been around for some time, the laptop just received a Snapdragon update. That is not the only highlight of this device though, as it takes a really innovative approach with its webcam too! Let’s discuss the Honor MagicBook Art 14 more in this article and its expected price in Nepal too.

Honor MagicBook Art 14 Overview

Detachable Webcam

The main “wow” factor of this laptop is definitely its webcam. Normally, it sits hidden inside the laptop, pretending to be a button on the side. However, after you press it, the 1080P FHD camera reveals itself. Then you can magnetically attach it on top of your screen and voila! It works just like a regular webcam, which you can also flip to the other side if you want to show whatever is behind you.

Design and Display

This innovative approach has allowed Honor to keep thin bezels around the screen of the MagicBook Art 14. Despite having an all-metal body, the laptop is slim and light measuring just 11.50 mm in thickness and weighing approximately 1.03 kg. It comes in two colours: monotone Emerald Green, and Sunrise White with a gradient finish.

Due to its thin build, it does not cram wide port options. However, with a Thunderbolt 4, a full-function USB-C, one USB-A, an HDMI, and a combo audio jack, it should facilitate regular folks and business personnel well enough.

Moving on to the front, this laptop comes with a 14.6-inch touchscreen. It is an OLED panel with a 3:2 aspect ratio and a 3.1K resolution. The Honor MagicBook Art 14 can switch between 60Hz and 120Hz refresh rate and offers 700 nits of typical brightness. It also covers 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut and gives a vibrant viewing experience. Furthermore, it has TÜV Rheinland hardware-level low blue light and flicker-free certification along with 4,320Hz PWM dimming.

Performance

The Honor MagicBook Art 14 comes in two processor choices — Intel and Qualcomm. If you choose Intel you can either have Intel Core Ultra 5 125H or Ultra 7 155H. Meanwhile, if you go with Qualcomm, it appears the only option available right now is the Snapdragon X Elite X1E-80-100. It isn’t the strongest processor in the series, but it should hold enough capability to help you power through your tasks and on-device AI demands.

Additionally, the laptop can be configured with dual-channel LPDDR5X memory with a frequency of 7,467MHz. There are only two choices for the RAM capacity, which are 16GB and 32GB. Contrarily, the Honor MagicBook Art 14 comes in a single storage option i.e. 1TB. Powering everything is a 60Wh battery, which can fully charge in just over 1.5 hours. The company does not clarify the wattage of the charging speed though. Likewise, the laptop has a cooling system as well, complete with a heat dissipation vapour chamber.

Honor MagicBook Art 14 Price in Nepal and Availability

This laptop was initially launched with Intel processors in China — its home country a few months back. In the meantime, Honor MagicBook Art 14 Snapdragon was announced at the IFA 2024 with expansion to other regions. The Intel options start at CNY 7,999 and go up to CNY 9,499. However, the price of the Qualcomm variant is still under wraps.

Regardless, if the Honor MagicBook Art 14 makes its way to Nepal, we expect its price to start at NPR 181,999.

What’s glowing on in the Apple’s “It’s Glowtime.” event?

Well, well, well! It’s that time of the year again! Yes, after so much hush-hush, finally the new iPhones are coming. Not just iPhone though. Apple has dubbed this event “It’s Glowtime.” and we are here to discuss the details of it and also talk about what might go down.

Apple “It’s Glowtime.” Event Overview

Initially, Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman predicted the event would be held on 10 September. However, he was off the mark by a day. Regardless, here is what you can expect from the event:

New iPhones, of course

The iPhone 16 series is definitely the key highlight of the Apple “It’s Glowtime.” event. The series will include the base model, Plus, Pro, and Pro Max.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are also expected to come with a separate camera button on the left corner of the iPhone. Moreover, rumours hint that the new iPhones will come with a few design tweaks and Apple A18 chipsets across the board. The Pro models will obviously go with the Pro chipset. Meanwhile, the base and the Plus variants will be getting the regular Apple A18 processor, which might be the Apple A17 Pro in disguise.

Siri with AI and iOS 18

The American tech giant announced that it was revamping its voice assistant — Siri in the WWDC24 “Action Packed.” event back in June. During the announcement, we saw that the entire screen glowed when activating Siri. And now we know that there will be a redesigned Siri, which is no longer a floating orb at the bottom of your screen, instead it now extends along the edges of your display.

In the same event, Apple also introduced iOS 18, which has been available in beta for some time now. We can expect the final release of the OS at the event. Furthermore, the new iPhone should boot on iOS 18 straight out of the box. However, it seems like the much-expected Apple Intelligence features won’t be available in IOS 18.0, a clear disappointment for many eagerly awaiting these advancements.

Apple Watch 10

Sources are also expecting the launch of the tenth-generation Apple Watch at the “It’s Glowtime.” event. Ideally, it would be named “Apple Watch 10”. However, we know what happened with the iPhone naming. So, there is a chance that it might be dubbed “Apple Watch X” instead.

There isn’t much buzz about what the new Apple Watch will bring. However, it is expected to come with an upgraded chip, a slimmer case, and possibly an Action button similar to that on the Apple Watch Ultra 2. Additionally, a switch to a microLED display and the ability to detect hypertension and sleep apnea are in the talks. If this turns out to be true, the new feature might not be available at launch but could be introduced later via a software update to watchOS 11.

Along with that, there is also chatter of an Apple Watch Ultra 3. Even though the current version was released just last year it might seem early for a new model, but Apple could be adding new features, like better specs, new watch faces, and possibly improved battery life. We will have to wait and watch what happens with the watch this time. 👀

New AirPods?

Apple doesn’t update its earbuds every year like its other devices. The last time the base AirPods got an update was in 2021 with the introduction of 3rd Gen. The Pro model did get a refresh in 2022, but it’s been some time since the regular AirPods got one. Hence, Apple will likely launch the AirPods 4th Gen in the “It’s Glowtime.” event.

There are talks of AirPods rocking IR blasters, but that won’t happen until 2026. Apple will apparently be giving active noise cancellation to the base AirPods this time. Sources speculate that this move is in response to Samsung offering ANC on their base Buds3. It’s good news regardless of whatever the intent was. Additionally, the AirPods 4th Gen will likely switch to USB-C charging as well.

Additionally, Mark Gurman has hinted that we’ll see two new AirPods today, so the other one is mostly likely the AirPods Max 2 which will be announced today but will “be coming later” most likely at the October event.

No Ipads?

While an iPad may not be on the immediate list of the much-anticipated “It’s Glowtime.”, we can look forward to the possibility of a redesigned Mac mini and the debut of M4-powered MacBooks. For that stay tuned for an exciting October.

When and where to watch the Apple “It’s Glowtime.” Event?

The Apple “It’s Glowtime.” event will be held on 9 September 2024 at 10 AM PST. The high-profile individuals who received an invite will join the event in person at the Steve Jobs Theatre at Apple Park. For us regular folks, we can tune into the live stream of the event on Apple’s official website, YouTube, or Apple TV. Lastly, for Nepali viewers, the event will go live at 10:45 PM on the same day. With that, it is important to remember that if any of the products mentioned above are not released today, they will likely be launched at the October event.
