Realme unveils Concept Smartphone with 10,000mAh battery and 320W fast charging

Realme has introduced a groundbreaking concept smartphone featuring an enormous 10,000mAh battery. While the handset is still in its concept stage, it offers a glimpse into the future of long-lasting smartphones. In this article, we will discuss everything we know about the Realme GT Concept Phone rumor.

Realme GT Concept Phone

Realme’s new concept phone, which is a part of the GT lineup, challenges conventional smartphone design by packing a 10,000mAh battery into a slim and lightweight frame. The device measures 8.5mm thick and weighs just 215 grams. Those are impressive figures given the battery size, which is more commonly seen in power banks than smartphones. According to Realme, this concept phone can deliver multiple days of usage on a single charge, effectively tackling “battery anxiety” for users.

Realme Concept Smartphone

Central to this achievement is the use of an ultra-high silicon-content anode battery. This features a 10% silicon ratio (currently the highest in the industry) and boasts an energy density of 887Wh/L.

Mini Diamond Architecture and innovative design

The real innovation lies in the phone’s internal engineering. Realme has introduced what it calls the “Mini Diamond Architecture,” a unique internal layout that rearranges components to create space for the large battery. This design breakthrough enables the use of the world’s narrowest Android mainboard, which measures just 23.4mm in width. This reconfiguration has reportedly earned the company over 60 international patents.

Moreover, the concept phone also features a semi-transparent back cover. This will allow users a view of its internal components, including the compact mainboard and the enormous battery. The visual design element underscores Realme’s commitment to blending aesthetics with cutting-edge innovation.

Blazing-fast 320W charging support

Complementing the massive battery is support for 320W wired fast charging. That makes it one of the fastest charging technologies ever demonstrated in a smartphone. We were speculating on this Supersonic Charge a while ago, and it looks like it is coming to the real world finally. This advancement builds upon Realme’s earlier breakthroughs, such as the 150W charging on the GT Neo3 and 240W on the GT3. Though the 320W charging capability remains part of the concept stage, it reflects Realme’s continued focus on high-performance power solutions.

Realme has not disclosed when or if this concept phone will reach commercial production. However, the company has hinted that future GT-series smartphones, such as the anticipated Realme GT 7 lineup, could incorporate some of these innovations.

Best Gaming Laptops in Nepal Under Rs. 250,000 (रु 2.5 Lakhs) [2025]

We are already at 2025, and gaming laptops with the latest 14th-gen Intel and AMD Ryzen AI mobile CPUs are already here. The laptop market in Nepal is filled with some amazing gaming laptops that you can buy under NPR 2.5 lakh. And here, I’ll be discussing the best gaming laptops under 2.5 lakhs in Nepal you could buy right now.

Best Gaming Laptops Under 2.5 Lakhs in Nepal [2025 Update]

Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 (2023)

Kicking off our list of the best gaming laptops under 2.5 Lakhs in Nepal is the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 (2023). The Zephyrus Series from Asus is all about portable yet powerful machines. Which is why you are getting Intel’s Core i7-13620H CPU here paired with RTX 4070 GPU (120W Dynamic Boost) here.

Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 (2023)

And this has been paired with 16GB DDR4 RAM alongside 512GB of SSD for storage. The Zephyrus G16 also brings a nice-looking display. It’s got a 16″ IPS panel with FHD resolution, a 165Hz refresh rate, 100% sRGB colors, G-SYNC support, a MUX switch, and Dolby Vision support.

Whereas Asus has also impressed us with the design of this laptop. It looks quite premium. The Zephyrus G16 looks mighty premium, and it even brings that classic “ErgoLift” hinge for better airflow. There’s no RGB lighting anywhere onboard if that’s something you care about, but we would argue that its relatively thin and lightweight form factor more than makes up for that omission.

Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 (2023) Specifications:
Display 16″ FHD IPS 165Hz, 100% sRGB, Dolby Vision
CPU Intel Core i7-13620H (10 cores / 16 threads)

HP Omen 16 (2024)

Taking the third spot on our best gaming laptops under 2.5 lakhs in Nepal is the HP Omen 16 (2024). This thing is powered by the Intel Core i7-14700HX, which is notably more powerful than that 13th Gen CPU on the Zephyrus G16. And even in terms of GPU, HP went with a higher TGP RTX 4070 here (140W).

And since the Omen 16 also has a beefier chassis with more room for thermal management, it will yield a better gaming experience overall compared to the Zephyrus G16. Or also when you’re running demanding creative applications.

The Omen 16 has a similar 16.1-inch FHD IPS display with a 165Hz refresh rate, 7ms response time, 300 nits brightness, and 100% sRGB color accuracy. And unlike Asus, this gaming beast from Asus also has RGB-backlit keyboards.

Lenovo Legion Pro 5i (2024)

Up next is the Lenovo Legion Pro 5i (2024). While it does use an older generation 13th Gen CPU compared to the HP Omen 16 with fewer E-cores, we still found it to be a perfectly powerful processor to handle most games. It also has a similar 140W RTX 4070 GPU, so the reason we’re ranking it above the Omen 16 is mostly because of two things:

  • a nicer display,
  • and a better cooling system.

So, first things first, the Legion Pro 5i has a sharper 1600p (WQXGA) IPS panel with a 165Hz refresh rate. It even boasts 300 nits of brightness, a faster 3ms response time, G-SYNC support, and 100% sRGB colors that has been pre-calibrated and Pantone certified. That means not only is it perfect for gamers, but you can bet on it for stuff like photo/video editing as well.

The Legion Pro 5i also brings a 4-zone RGB backlit keyboard with numpad, an FHD webcam with privacy shutter, and robust port selection (including USB-C with Power Delivery). All adding to its versatility and user appeal.

Lenovo Legion Pro 5i (2024) Specifications:
Display 16″ WQXGA IPS 165Hz, 100% sRGB, 300 nits, Dolby Vision

Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 (2024)

Finally, our top pick on this list of the best gaming laptops under 2.5 lakhs in Nepal is the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 (2024). And what makes this guy stand out is its combination of the 14th Gen Intel Core i9-14900HX CPU and NVIDIA RTX 4070 (140W) GPU. Making it the most powerful gaming laptop in this segment.

You also get a whole terabyte of high-speed PCIe Gen4 SSD here. Which means whether that’s 1080p/1440p gaming, heavy multitasking, or other demanding workloads like video editing or 3D modeling, the Helios Neo 16 can push through them all like a champ.

The display is another major highlight of this laptop. You’re looking at a 16″ QHD IPS panel with a buttery-smooth 240Hz refresh rate, 500 nits of brightness, and 100% of the DCI-P3 color space. And just so you know, the DCI-P3 gamut covers a wider range of colors than sRGB, so the Helios Neo 16’s display is pretty much as good as it gets for an IPS panel.

Not only that, but Acer’s AeroBlade fan technology and liquid metal thermal solution also let you enjoy your gaming sessions for long durations without any thermal throttling. The only little thing we’re concerned about here is that you can actually go with the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 (2023) with a Core i9-13900HX CPU and the same RTX 4070 graphics if you want a better value for money. Since that thing is much more affordable at just NPR 208,999.

Best Gaming Laptops in Nepal Under Rs. 120,000 (रु 1.2 Lakhs) [2025]

With time, the gaming laptop market has become segmented. You can choose from the budget, mid-range, or flagship categories. Here, we’ve compiled a list of the best budget midrange gaming laptops under NPR 120000 (1.2 lakh) currently available in Nepal.

If you are looking to game on your laptop, a specialized “gaming laptop” will provide you with a much better experience than regular notebooks and ultrabooks. The barrier to entry for most gaming laptops available in Nepal is around the 1 lakh rupee mark. Here, we have curated a list of the best available laptops under 120000.

Note: In this list, we have also included a few of the best gaming laptops that cost more than NPR 120000, but not by a lot. We have done this so that you can further curate your choices, and also because we don’t want you to miss any good deal by spending NPR 5,000 – 10,000 more. The prices of such products are marked with an asterisk (*) at the end.

How to choose a gaming laptop under NPR 120000 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 to blaze through heavy games, but most titles should be playable without many hiccups.

The most readily available GPU for laptops in this segment is going to be an RTX 3050 (6GB) with DLSS support. Or even RTX 4050 with DLSS 3 and Frame Generation support if you’re lucky.

As for CPU, you can go with either Intel or AMD as long as you are getting the H-series processors (Intel 13/14th Gen or Ryzen 7000/8000 series). The Intel Core i5-13420H and the i5-12450H are currently DOMINANT in this segment, but under the hood, they are pretty much the same chip with slightly different clocks.

Instead, pay more attention to RAM and storage. Most gaming laptops under NPR 1.2 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 and 1TB SSD whenever you can, even if it means going over the budget by a bit.

144Hz refresh rate screens are common, but unless you are into competitive gaming, it should not bother you much, even if the machine is at 120Hz. 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.

HP Victus 15 (2024)

The 2024 HP Victus 15 secures 3rd place in our top 3 gaming laptops under NPR 120,000. For just NPR 110,000, you get the NVIDIA RTX 4050 (6GB GDDR6) paired with the AMD Ryzen 5 8645HS, a 6-core, 12-thread processor built on efficient 4nm fabrication delivering strong single and multi-core performance.

It’s similar in many ways to the Lenovo LOQ 15, in our 2nd spot, but lands in 3rd place mainly because of its lower TGP GPU. As well as slightly weaker thermals and a narrower display color gamut since it only covers 62.5% sRGB color space. There’s also an Intel version of the Victus, which comes with a Core i5-13420H CPU, but with the same RTX 4050 graphics.

Hp Victus 15 2024 Design

In terms of memory, the Victus 15 has 16GB DDR5 RAM and a 512GB Gen 4 SSD. Its 15.6″ FHD 144Hz IPS display delivers smooth visuals and decent viewing angles, though brightness (300 nits) and color coverage (62.5% sRGB) are just average.

On the design side, the Victus 15 keeps things minimal and office-friendly, with a mica silver backlit keyboard and numeric pad. You also get Wi-Fi 6, DTS: X Ultra audio, a 720p webcam, and a 70Wh battery, all packed into a 2.29 kg body.

Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024)

Taking the 2nd spot in our top 3 list is the Lenovo LOQ (2024), priced at NPR 117,499. And honestly, this is one of the most balanced options right now.

You’re getting the powerful Intel Core i5-12450HX CPU, paired with the NVIDIA RTX 4050 (6GB GDDR6) running at a high 105W TGP. That means you get noticeably better GPU performance compared to lower-TGP laptops in this price class (like the HP Victus 15 above).

Lenovo LOQ 15 2023 - Gaming

There are also other Lenovo LOQ 15 variants at a similar price, like those with Ryzen 5 8645HS, but we’re specifically picking this Intel version because it offers the best CPU + GPU combo in this price segment.

On top of that, it packs 24GB DDR5-4800 MHz RAM, 512GB SSD, and a 15.6″ 144Hz IPS display with 100% sRGB colors. Design-wise, the LOQ 15 comes in “Luna Grey” finish with a sturdy PC-ABS build, white backlit keyboard, Wi-Fi 6, Gigabit Ethernet, and great port selection. Including USB-C (140W PD + DisplayPort) and HDMI 2.1.

The upcoming OnePlus Nord 5 will bring a massive performance upgrade

It has been almost a year since OnePlus released the Nord 4 (review), and attention is now shifting to its successor. A recent leak on X (formerly Twitter) revealed several key specifications of the upcoming OnePlus Nord 5, hinting at some major upgrades. Especially in terms of performance, so let’s find out more.

OnePlus Nord 5 Rumors

Display and Design

The OnePlus Nord 5 is rumored to feature a flat OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It is expected to include an in-display fingerprint scanner as well. But unlike its predecessor, which has a full metal design, OnePlus may switch to a glass back and plastic frame for this guy. Reports also mention dual speakers and an IR blaster.

Performance

As for performance, the OnePlus Nord 5 is expected to feature the MediaTek Dimensity 9400e chipset. This has been cited by multiple leaksters including, Debayan Roy, Abhishek Yadav, and even Digital Chat Station.

And since the OnePlus Nord 4 was essentially a rebadged OnePlus Ace 3V (exclusive to China), we won’t be surprised if the Nord 5 will be Ace 5V in disguise. There likely won’t be a OnePlus Ace 4V in China since the number “4” is considered unlucky in the country.

By the way, that Dimensity 9400e chip is said to be a binned variant of MediaTek’s flagship Dimensity 9400. Reports suggest that the 9400e could deliver better performance than both the Dimensity 9300 Plus and the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor. Thus making it more powerful than the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chipset found in the OnePlus Nord 4.

Cameras

In terms of cameras, the OnePlus Nord 5 is rumored to feature a 50MP main camera with optical image stabilization (OIS) and an 8MP ultrawide sensor, similar to the Nord 4. The front camera is expected to remain at 16MP.

While the hardware appears largely unchanged, potential improvements could come from updated image processing or new camera software features compared to the previous model.

Massive battery

The OnePlus Nord 5 is rumored to feature a 7,000mAh battery, a notable increase from the 5,500mAh battery in the Nord 4. With support for 100W wired charging, which is the same as on its predecessor.

OnePlus Nord 5 Price and Availability

The rumors suggest that the OnePlus Nord 5 will make its debut in India pretty soon. At a starting price of INR 29,999 (~ USD 355). There is no official launch timeline revealed by OnePlus itself, but we expect to hear more about this midrange phone in the coming weeks.

In this article, we’ve listed the best laptops under NPR 80000 you could buy in Nepal right now. Among them, we point out which one we think is the best among available laptops in Nepal for casual users and students, while noting that it’s not meant for gaming, editing, and other demanding tasks.

Choosing a laptop under NPR 80000 (A mini-guide)

Basics aside, there are certain things that one should be looking out for when searching for the best laptops under NPR 80000 in Nepal. First, an IPS display with Full HD resolution should be your top priority. Furthermore, performance-wise, you aim for at least the 13th Gen Intel Core i5 processor or Ryzen 5 CPU, 8GB RAM, and 256GB SSD. The market is full of 12th/13th Gen Intel and Ryzen 5000/6000/7000 CPUs, but newer doesn’t always mean better in this regard. Anyway, don’t keep your hopes high in terms of graphics. You are less likely to get discrete graphics in this range but we have a few options that meet that criteria this time around. So, that being said, let us dive into our pick for the best laptops under NPR 80000 in Nepal.

Just missing out on the top 3 spots is another Vivobook. This time, it is the latest 2024 edition of the Vivobook 15, and there’s a lot to love about it. First of all, it’s got a Core 5 120U CPU with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, which is a good value for this price bracket.

It’s not all sunshine and rainbows, though, so you gotta compromise at this price bracket. The display isn’t the most color-accurate out there, and the physical size of the battery is also quite small for a large notebook.

4. Acer Swift Go 14 (2023)

Finally, the Acer Swift Go 14 is our top pick in this list of the best laptops for around 80,000 in Nepal. And right off the bat, this one doesn’t have a discrete GPU like most options before it. But if you’re just looking for a thin and light laptop for everyday usage with a premium design, reliable performance, a gorgeous display, and more, then there’s simply no option better than the Swift Go 14.

Acer Swift Go 14 2024 Review - battery comparision

Thanks to its capable Ryzen 5 7530U CPU inside, everyday performance is incredibly smooth on this guy. There’s also 16GB of RAM onboard, so multitasking isn’t going to be a trouble either. It also has a beautiful 14″ IPS display with excellent color accuracy (100% sRGB) and brightness levels. And the best part is that the Acer Swift Go 14 is also super lightweight at just 1.25 kg, making it a great choice for students, programmers, graphic designers, and casual users.

3. Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 15

Moving on, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i bags the bronze as the best laptop under 80,000 in Nepal. Right off the bat, it is running a 13th Gen Intel Core i5-13420H CPU, making it the god-tier contender for raw performance and the most powerful laptop at this price.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i

In terms of memory, most variants of this IdeaPad ship with soldered memory, so you can’t upgrade the RAM down the line. As such, we recommend spending a little extra upfront and getting at least 16GB. The IdeaPad Slim 3i can be a good choice for students, office folks, or someone starting out in IT.

Other highlights include a 720p webcam with a physical privacy shutter, Wi-Fi 6, and USB-C connectivity. Be aware that TN variants of this laptop are also sold in some stores, but they have really bad screens, and you are better off avoiding them completely.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 15 (2023) Specs:

Display 15.6” FHD (1920 x 1080), Anti-glare, 250 nits

2. Asus Zenbook 14 OLED (2024)

If you want an OLED panel with a good CPU and GPU power, the Zenbook 14 OLED is also a good deal, albeit for a higher price tag. It is the best non-gaming machine for everyday and office use that you can get under 1 lakh rupees in Nepal right now is the Zenbook 14 OLED from Asus. It’s got all the bells and whistles, spearheaded by Intel’s Meteor Lake Core Ultra 5 125H. The Zenbook is an Intel Evo machine that guarantees smooth performance and long-lasting battery life, which are essential needs of a casual user.

The built-in Arc graphics is also powerful enough to handle light graphical needs like working in Photoshop from time to time or running a game or two in low-medium settings. Although one of our gripes with this machine is its 8GB of soldered LPDDR5x memory, we think it’s workable even in today’s day and age. Of course, we would heartily recommend you get a 16GB variant if possible, but the Core Ultra 5 configuration is hard to come by with that much RAM. Regardless, all other aspects of the laptop are excellent, including a 1200p OLED display with touch support, a backlit keyboard, a premium feeling build, a lightweight 1.2 kg chassis, and a large 75Wh battery. The best part is that the MRP of the laptop was much higher when it initially launched, but now it’s available at a sweet discounted price.

1. Acer Aspire 15 (2024)

Securing the first spot on our list of best laptops is the new Aspire 15 from Acer. It’s got a very balanced spec sheet with a capable processor, sufficient memory, a nice display, and good battery life. Powering the device is an AMD Ryzen 5 8640HS processor with 6 cores and 12 threads. Pair that with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of Gen 4 SSD for fluent multitasking and enhanced productivity. The screen is in a taller 16:10 aspect ratio with WUXGA resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate.
