Here’s the latest price of DJI Mavic 3 Classic in Nepal

1

DJI Mavic 3 is an excellent drone, but it’s an expensive affair for many. So the company announced the Mavic 3 Classic for a more palatable price point. Yes, there are some changes to the drone, but it’s an excellent bargain. So let’s go through the specs, features, availability, and official price of the DJI Mavic 3 Classic in Nepal.

DJI Mavic 3 Classic Overview:

Camera

The Mavic 3 Classic is nearly identical to the Mavic 3, but there is one significant difference. There is no telephoto lens here. Other than that, it is identical to the Mavic 3.DJI Mavic 3 Classic DesignThat means you’ll be relying on a 4/3 CMOS 20MP camera that can capture video at 5.1K/50fps, 4K/60fps, and 1080p/60fps. You can also record slow-motion videos at 4K / 120fps and 1080p / 200fps.

Furthermore, the Mavic 3 Classic camera has a 24mm equivalent focal length lens and an adjustable aperture ranging from f/2.8 to f/11 for 12.8 stops of dynamic range. The drone also includes DJI’s automated Quickshots shooting mode as well as timelapse, hyper-lapse, and panorama shooting modes.

It also has a cruise control feature to set a constant flight speed. And the ActiveTrack 5.0 feature automatically recognizes and locks the subject for more stable footage.

Security, Transmission

Mavic 3 Classic also comes with a slew of safety features to keep the drone safe. The eight visual sensors equipped in the Mavic 3 Classic work in conjunction with APAS 5.0 obstacle avoidance system to autonomously plan routes around hazards.

Similarly, the Return To Home system can navigate the best path back to its starting point after scanning its immediate surroundings with a 200-meter range. In a densely populated area, the drone can also detect nearby planes and helicopters by sending ADS-B signals.

DJI’s GEO 2.0 geofencing is another excellent system for such situations, as it alerts drone pilots to potential flight hazards in the area. Also, it will inform you about local airspace restrictions.

Furthermore, Mavic 3 Classic uses the same O3+ transmission system that debuted with the Mavic 3. It will have a control range of up to 15 kilometers and a live feed transmission rate of 1080p/60 frames per second. In Sport mode, the drone has a maximum flight distance of 30km.

Realme’s 320W SuperSonic Charge : Speeding into the future!

0

Realme has unveiled its latest advancements in fast-changing technology the ‘world’s fastest charging solution’. While it already has a good impression on charging speed, Realme is determined to push the boundaries even further. In this article, we’ll delve into all the details about this exciting 320W charging speed.

Realme’s 320W SuperSonic Charge Overview

Realme’s charging speed saga

In the race for the fastest wired charging, Realme took the crown with its GT Neo 5, featuring a blistering 240W charging speed. This device later made its international debut as the Realme GT3 in 2023. While the company promised a full charge from 0 to 100% in under 10 minutes, real-world tests came close, achieving it in just 11 minutes and 16 seconds. That’s still remarkably fast!

Realme's 300W charging tech

17% charge in 35 seconds —talk about a quick boost!

Now, Realme has revealed its 320W SuperSonic charging technology, which is the ‘world’s fastest charging solution,’ during a special event in China on August 14.

A video has surfaced online showcasing the technology in action, and it appeared before the official launch. Whether this leak was accidental or intentionally planned to build excitement before the big reveal remains unclear. Regardless of the motive, the video is now out and says a lot.

As you can see in the video, it takes the phone to reach 15% charge in just 32 seconds, with a quick jump to 17% in the following 3 seconds.

Using a 4-cell battery

The 320W charging feat is achieved by using a 4-cell battery. The prototype charger is known as “Pocket Cannon” which looks similar to last year’s 240W brick. It has a new power density value of  3.3 Watts per centimeter (W/cm). The test battery was also just 4,400mAh while we have already seen Realme going a higher power battery in its phones. This compatible battery got its juice filled in just 4 minutes and 30 seconds which is mindboggling.

Realme 320W Charging in Just 4 minutes

Been there, done that…

Well, this isn’t the first time a company has promised such stunning charging speeds. Last year, Redmi demoed their 300W solution by charging a Redmi Note 12 with a 4100mAh battery from 0% to 100% in just 5 minutes. But this time, Realme has just snatched the crown, rightfully.

However, we haven’t seen any devices using this technology yet, likely due to some issues like overheating. Let’s hope, it will be commercially available in the coming times.

U4IA Sonic launched in Nepal with Bluetooth v5.4

U4IA is a Nepali smartphone accessories brand that recently entered the market. The company initially launched chargers, a pair of earbuds, and a speaker. Now, they are widening their offerings and are launching new products. Among these, U4IA Sonic earbuds are one of them. Let’s look into these earbuds in further detail and also discuss their price in Nepal.

U4IA Sonic Earbuds Overview

Design and Audio

The U4IA Sonic is somewhat reminiscent of the Realme T100 and Realme T110, due to its colour combination. That being said, they come in an in-ear fit with IPX5 water resistance. These earbuds are available in two colours: Black, and White. They have a yellow and a grey interior respectively, giving the whole package, a dual-tone finish.

U4IA Sonic Design

For audio, the U4IA Sonic relies on 10mm drivers on each bud. With these, the company claims to offer “immersive sound quality”. They do not seem to have any form of noise cancellation. Hence, these earbuds are a pretty standard pair and are ideal to “start your wireless journey”, as the company puts it.

Features and Battery

The U4IA Sonic is pretty limited in terms of features as well. It does have the latest Bluetooth v5.4, which should offer a stable connection with your smartphone. The brand mentions “one-step pairing”, which could be referring to Google Pair support, but it’s unclear if that’s the case. These earbuds apparently also offer latency as low as 50ms and can tap into the phone’s voice assistant.

U4IA Sonic

Talking of the battery, it packs 35mAh cells on the earpieces while the charging case has a 250mAh unit. Considering both, the U4IA Sonic can last up to 40 hours. Meanwhile, the earbuds alone are good to go for a quarter of the day. Once depleted of charge, you can plug it in via the USB Type-C port sitting at the bottom of the case.

U4IA Sonic Earbuds Specifications

  • Design: In-ear with IPX5 rating
  • Sound Driver: 10mm drivers
  • Connectivity: Bluetooth v5.4
  • Battery: 35 mAh (Buds), 250 mAh (Case)
  • Playback: Up to 6 hours (Buds), Up to 40 hours (Case)

Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold is official with the biggest screen on a foldable!

Google has officially unveiled its latest innovation in its Fold series. Building on the success of its predecessor, the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold looks eye-catching with promises of improved features and refinements. Let’s explore this smartphone including its features, specifications, expected price in Nepal, and more.

Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Overview

Google phones have always been all about software, but they have really stepped up their hardware game with the latest Pro Fold. It looks more premium than ever, being the ‘biggest ever display on a phone into an even thinner foldable device’. Well, the software improvements are of course there.

Design and Display

Starting off with the design, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold stands out with a sleek and sophisticated look, with noticeably thinner bezels than its predecessor. It comes with a massive 8-inch Super Actua Flex Display, making it the largest foldable screen to date – outdoing the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4’s 7.98-inch display.

pixel 9 fold pro thin displayFeaturing the same IPX8 rating as its predecessor, the new Pixel Fold can withstand being submerged in water up to 1.5 meters deep for up to 30 minutes. Not bad! But it could have worked better with the dust resistance as Galaxy Z Fold6 offers at least an IP48 rating.

On the outside, the phone features a 6.3-inch Actua Display, larger than the Pixel Fold’s and comparable to the Z Fold 6’s outer screen. Additionally, the 9 Pro Fold can reach a peak brightness of up to 2,700 nits, which is 80% brighter than the og Pixel Fold. It also ships with tougher Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection which offers better drop and scratch resistance.

In terms of weight, the Pro Fold is lighter than the previous model at 257g. However, it is still heavier than the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and OnePlus Open both of which weigh 239g.

Performance and Battery

Under the hood, the Pixel Pro Fold features the new Google Tensor G4 chip built on a 4 nm process, an upgrade from the Pixel Fold’s Tensor G2 (5 nm). Google says this chip is 20% faster with web browsing and 17% faster with app launching.

While details about the clock speed and core architecture are not out yet, we have high hopes for Google’s in-house silicon this time around. The Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold will run on Android 14, supporting up to 7 major Android updates. In terms of storage, it ships with 16GB of RAM and 256GB/512GB of UFS memory.

pixel 9 fold pro iconThe battery life could be a point of concern. The previous Pixel Fold had a 4,821 mAh cell and typically lasted a full day on a single charge. With the 9 Pro Fold now equipped with a smaller 4,650 mAh battery, it’s quite uncertain how its battery life will hold up. That being said, the capacity of the Google Fold still surpasses Samsung’s offering with a 4,400 mAh cell.

Camera

The camera bump on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is of the polarizing kind with most thinking it “ruins the design”. It’s a triple-camera setup featuring a 48-megapixel main sensor, a 10.8-megapixel ultrawide sensor, and a 10.8-megapixel 5x telephoto sensor.

Both front selfie cameras are housed inside punch-holes, offer ‘Face Unlock’, and have the same 10MP sensors. The Ultrawide also doubles as a macro with a close focus option.

AI Features and the rest

With the bigger display come features like Split Screen, drag-drop photos, and Dual Screen with Google Meet. Additionally, the Google AI features on Pixel include Pixel Screenshots, Pixel Studio, Circle to Search, Summarize, and Gemini. Moreover, some photography features including Magic Editor, Best Take, Video Boost, Add Me and Pro Controls are also coming to this phone.

Lastly, Google has announced a partnership with several developers to enhance certain games for the interior screen. It will be interesting to see which games Google optimizes, as Google is not quite known for gaming features.

Here’s a first look at the Samsung Galaxy A06!

Samsung is gearing up to launch its offering for 2025. It usually kicks things off with its affordable lineup, and that’s what the company is working on. We’ve got some tea on the Samsung Galaxy A06 as well as the Galaxy A16! Here, we will be discussing all that we know about the former.

Samsung Galaxy A06 Rumours Round-up

First Look

A leaker by the name of @evleaks posted the renders of the Samsung Galaxy A06 on X. The post has been limited by the tipster, but the phone seems to have gotten a design update. Firstly, Samsung seems to have switched up the phone colours a bit, introducing a new golden yellow-ish option. The phone has a linear pattern on the back, but it is likely just a print. Its predecessor also took a similar approach with a printed pattern and not having an actual texture.

Samsung Galaxy A06 First Look

The “Key Island” is here — a protrusion housing all the buttons. It was introduced in Galaxy A15 and A25 has been a staple on all A-series phones from that point onwards. Since the Samsung Galaxy A05 launched before those models, it missed out on this design update.

Certifications

The upcoming Samsung phone has already bagged FCC certifications that reveal some of its key specs. Moreover, the Samsung Galaxy A06 carries the model number “SM-A065F/DS”.

The FCC listing also reveals some of the key specs of the phone. As per the listing, the Samsung Galaxy A06 will be 167.30 mm in length and 77.31 mm wide. The thickness of the phone is still unknown though. Moreover, it will be a 4G phone and we can see the distribution and patterns of antenna as well. Likewise, Samsung’s upcoming entry-level phone will have a 5,000 mAh battery, with a rated capacity of 4,855 mAh.

Performance reveal

The Samsung Galaxy A06 has appeared multiple times on Geekbench testing. Initially, it appeared on Geekbench 4.2, a much older version of the benchmarking platform. It scored 1,644 and 5,326 points for single-core and multi-core performance respectively. This phone is working with a 6GB RAM alongside the processor.

The phone was later rerun on Geekbench 6.3.0 where its score unsurprisingly dropped — by nearly four times! It now has a single-core score of 419, and a multi-core score of 1,391 points. However, this time around the memory on this thing was just 4GB. This might have influenced the score to some extent.

Apart from that, other info on the phone remains unchanged. It has the same motherboard, the same OS i.e. Android 14, and the same processor. Talking of the processor, it appears that the Samsung Galaxy A06 will be rocking the same one as its predecessor — MediaTek Helio G85.

Samsung Galaxy A06 Launch and Availability

Looking at the launch trend of the base Galaxy A-series, we can expect the upcoming member to debut near the end of 2024. However, sources are expecting it as early as next month! Regarding price, it will likely be in the same bracket as the A05, maybe a slight hike at most.

Google Pixel 9 Pro XL is official, but don’t let the “XL” fool you

The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL has been launched alongside Pixel 9 and 9 Pro. This model builds on the Pixel 9 Pro with a larger display and enhanced battery life. In this article, let’s discuss the latest Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, including its expected price in Nepal and full specifications.  

Google Pixel 9 Pro XL Overview

Design and Display

The naming of current Pixel 9 Pro phones can be quite confusing. So, before starting, let me clear you… The Pixel 9 Pro XL is almost the same size as the previous Pixel 8 Pro. However, now the regular Pixel 9 Pro comes in a much smaller size. For instance, the Pixel 9 Pro XL measures 162.8 x 76.6 x 8.5 mm and weighs 221 grams.  It features a glass front and back protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and an aluminum frame. The phone is IP68-rated, providing resistance to dust and water immersion up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. 

Google Pixel 9 Pro vs Pro XL Display size

The device sports a 6.8-inch LTPO OLED display compared to the 6.3-inch display in the Pixel 9 Pro and 6.7-inch display found in the Pixel 8 Pro. It comes with a resolution of 1344 x 2992 pixels. It supports a 120Hz refresh rate and HDR10+, with a peak brightness of 3000 nits. 

Performance

The Pixel 9 Pro XL runs on Android 14 and is powered by the Google Tensor G4 chipset. It includes up to 16GB of RAM and storage options from 128GB to 1TB, which are the same as those in the Pixel 9 Pro.

Camera System

Google Pixel 9 Pro XL Cameras

The Pixel 9 Pro XL features a triple-camera system: a 50 MP wide camera with optical image stabilization (OIS), a 48 MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom and OIS, and a 48 MP ultrawide camera. This setup supports 8K video recording and includes dual-LED flash and Ultra-HDR. The Pixel 9 Pro has a similar camera system but lacks the dedicated 5x optical zoom found in the Pro XL.

Battery and Charging

The Pixel 9 Pro XL has a 5060 mAh battery, larger than the 4700 mAh battery in the Pixel 9 Pro. It supports 37W wired charging, compared to 27W on the Pixel 9 Pro.
