All you need to know about Xiaomi HyperOS 3 and its stable release

About a month ago, Xiaomi officially announced HyperOS 3, based on Android 16, marking a new chapter in the company’s operating system development. Now, they have officially published the stable rollout schedule for China. And this latest version focuses on making the system smoother, more responsive, and more intuitive for users. In this article, we’ll go over everything you need to know about HyperOS 3, including its key features and the complete list of devices eligible for the update.

 

Xiaomi HyperOS 3 (Android 16) is here

The president of Xiaomi Group Partner and Mobile Phone Division, Mr. Lu Weibing, said that HyperOS 3 is now a new starting point of Xiaomi’s operating system development. This fresh phase focuses on making the system smoother, more responsive, and more intuitive for its users.

What is new in HyperOS 3?

Xiaomi says its latest take on Android has some significant optimization in terms of performance as well. Besides smoother animations across the system, HyperOS 3 reportedly reduces app load time by 21%.

Gamers can expect an even better experience here with 15% better 1% low fps and 9% lower power draw as well.

The new Super Island

Besides all those under-the-hood optimizations, HyperOS 3 brings a lot of iOS-inspired features too.

Super Island in Xiaomi HyperOS 3

Like Xiaomi’s take on Apple’s Dynamic Island, called “Super Island”, which offers contextual information about real-time app activities. But unlike iOS, Super Island remains active in the notification panel as well.

Xiaomi HyperOS 3 - MacBook and iPad Sync

Whereas HyperOS 3-powered smartphones will work a lot better with different Apple devices, too. You will be able to run your Xiaomi phone’s app directly on your iPad or MacBook, and even share images and sync notifications between your Xiaomi phone and an iPhone.

Other changes

Xiaomi has also introduced a notable visual refresh across the UI. Including redesigned app and status bar icons, and better notification organization. The company has also updated the “Dynamic Wallpaper” we first saw on HyperOS 2 (Android 15) to add more cinematic depth effects and better lockscreen customization.

The one new feature that caught my eye is HyperOS 3’s offline positioning, which should let you find supported devices when it’s offline or switched off.

Which devices will get the Xiaomi HyperOS 3 update?

Honor Play10 lands in Nepal with Helio G81 and a 5,000 mAh battery

0

Honor just dropped the Play10 in Nepal, and it’s Honor’s most affordable phone in the country right now. Although given its price, this budget phone has pretty generous specs. So in this article, I will be going through everything you need to know about the new Honor Play10 (aka Honor Play 10), including its official price in Nepal.

Honor Play10 4G Overview:

Display and Design

The Honor Play10 has a 6.74-inch LCD panel with an HD (1600 x 720 px) resolution. It’s got a teardrop notch to house the front and pretty thick bezels at the bottom. At 167.7 x 77.7 x 8.55 mm and 189 grams, the Honor Play10 isn’t exactly tiny, but it’s manageable.

The Play10’s “Starry Purple” color option didn’t make its way to Nepal, but it’s available in Ocean Cyan and Midnight Black finishes. Other than this, Honor’s super-affordable budget phone also gets an official IP52 rating, a side-mounted fingerprint reader, WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, and 4G LTE connectivity.

Performance and software

Inside, there’s a MediaTek Helio G81 (12nm) chipset with up to 4GB RAM and 128GB storage. Its storage is available up to a terabyte using a microSD card as well, although the Play10 is available in a 3/64GB configuration only in Nepal.

We’ve also seen that MediaTek chip in a couple dozen phones at this point, and we can already tell you that the Honor Play10 should handle basic social media usage and video playback. But nothing beyond that. It runs on Android Go (most likely the Go Edition of Android 15), and we’re not expecting much in terms of software updates either.

Camera and battery

A 13MP rear camera and a 5MP selfie camera handle the photography and video call side of things on the Honor Play10. It’s powered by a decent 5,000 mAh battery that supports 10W charging, which should last you around two days under normal use.

Honor has been aggressively pushing silicon-carbon battery tech on most of its phones, so we’re a little surprised that the Play10 is still using a traditional Lithium-Polymer battery. Maybe Si-Ca batteries don’t make economic sense on ultra-affordable phones for now.

Honor Play10 Specifications:

  • Design, build: 167.7 x 77.7 x 8.55 mm, 189 gm, IP52 rating
  • Display: 6.74-inch IPS screen, HD+, 60Hz refresh rate
  • Chipset: Mediatek Helio G81 (12nm mobile platform)
  • Memory: 3/4GB RAM, 64/128GB storage (expandable up to 1TB via microSD card)
  • Software & UI: Android Go
  • Rear Camera: Single (13MP main)
  • Front Camera: 5MP sensor (teardrop notch)
  • Security: Fingerprint sensor (side-mounted)
  • Connectivity: Dual-SIM (Nano), WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS / A-GPS / Glonass / Galileo / BeiDou, USB-C, 4G LTE
  • Sensors: Accelerometer, Proximity, Light, Magnetometer
  • Battery: 5000 mAh with 10W charging (10W power adapter provided)

Honor Play10 Price in Nepal and Availability

In Nepal, the official price of the Honor Play10 is NPR 10,999 for the sole 3/64GB variant. You can buy this budget phone in Nepal from Honor-authorized stores across the country.

Redmi 15C 5G launched in Nepal with 5G support and Dimensity 6300

0

The 4G variant was launched at the start of this month, now the Chinese smartphone giant has launched its 5G variant, which features almost identical specs but among the obvious changes are 5G connectivity and a new chipset. Now, let’s jump in this article, where I will discuss everything about the latest Redmi 15C 5G, including its price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.

Redmi 15C 5G Overview

Display and Design

Redmi 15c 5G price in nepal

The 5G model keeps the same large 6.9-inch IPS LCD with a 120Hz refresh rate. The waterdrop notch is still there, holding the front camera. The phone is just slightly bigger and heavier than the 4G variant, with a thickness of 8.2mm and weighs 211 grams, which puts it on a heavier side compared to the 4G variant. It comes in three colors: Midnight Black, Dusk Purple, and Mint Green, and keeps the IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance. The side-mounted fingerprint scanner is still in place, and the 3.5mm headphone jack hasn’t gone anywhere.

Performance and Software

The only noticable upgrade is under the hood. The Helio G81 from the 4G model is replaced by the Dimensity 6300, a 6nm chipset with two Cortex-A76 cores at 2.4GHz and six A55 cores at 2.0GHz. Mali-G57 MC2 handles graphics. RAM remains at 4GB, with either 128GB or 256GB of storage, expandable via microSD. Android 15 is on board, with HyperOS 2 as a skin on top.

Camera and Battery

The rear camera stays at 50MP with an f/1.8 lens and 1080p video at 30fps. The front camera drops from 13MP on the 4G model to 8MP, also recording 1080p. The battery is still a massive 6,000mAh with 33W charging, so battery life shouldn’t be different from the 4G variant either. You’re getting Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.4, GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and Beidou. NFC support appears in some regions.

Redmi 15C 5G Specifications

  • Design, build: 173.2 x 81 x 8.2mm, 211g, IP64, side fingerprint scanner
  • Display: 6.9-inch IPS LCD, 120Hz, waterdrop notch
  • Chipset: MediaTek Dimensity 6300, Mali-G57 MC2 GPU
  • Memory: 4GB RAM, 128/256GB storage, expandable via microSD
  • Software & UI: Android (version unspecified)
  • Rear Camera: 50MP f/1.8, 1080p@30fps
  • Front Camera: 8MP f/2.0, 1080p@30fps

Samsung Galaxy A17 4G launched with Helio G99 Chipset

0

The Galaxy A17 5G was launched in Nepal last month, and now the company, following tradition, has released the 4G variant for one of the most popular segments in the world. This phone keeps the same Helio G99 chipset as before, which is already showing its age, but it does come with a few subtle upgrades. Now, let’s jump into this article, where I will discuss everything about the latest Galaxy A17 4G, including its price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.

Galaxy A17 4G Overview

Display and Design

Galaxy A17 4G Design and Display

The phone packs a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate, so visually its almost exact as its predecessor. But Samsung has also added Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection this time. It retains the IP54 rating for dust and splash resistance, and the side-mounted fingerprint sensor on the Key Island remains unchanged. The design is slimmer than the A16 4G, coming in at 7.5mm and 190 grams. And compared to the recently released A17 5G, the minor downside, as evident from its naming, is that it lacks 5G connectivity, which you’d obviously only get in the 5G variant.

Performance and Software

Inside, the phone runs on the MediaTek Helio G99 chipset. Which, in my opinon is getting old at this point because even phones like the Galaxy A07, a lower-tier model, also feature the same chip. But it’s paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, which is a step up from the A16 4G’s 4GB configuration. The phone boots One UI 7 based on Android 15, and Samsung promises six years of updates. But still, for anyone hoping for a noticeable performance bump over last year’s budget models, it’s nonexistent.

Camera and Battery

The camera setup is identical to the A16 4G: 50MP main camera with OIS, a 5MP ultrawide lens, and a 2MP macro shooter. Up front, there’s a 13MP camera. Video recording is capped at 1080p 30fps. The battery is 5,000mAh with 25W fast charging.

Connectivity and Extras

It has 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and USB Type-C. Samsung also added a few small software touches like the Gemini AI assistant and Circle to Search, though these are subtle and won’t dramatically change daily use.

Galaxy A17 4G Specifications

  • Design, Build: Slim 7.5mm, 190g, Gorilla Glass Victus+, IP54
  • Display: 6.7-inch Super AMOLED, FHD+, 90Hz
  • Chipset: MediaTek Helio G99
  • Memory: 6GB RAM, 128GB storage, expandable up to 2TB via microSD
  • Software & UI: Android 15, One UI 7, six years of updates
  • Rear Camera: 50MP main (OIS) + 5MP ultrawide + 2MP macro
  • Front Camera: 13MP
  • Security: Side-mounted fingerprint sensor, Face Unlock
  • Connectivity: 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, USB Type-C, GPS
  • Battery: 5,000mAh, 25W fast charging

Galaxy A17 4G Price in Nepal and Availability

Last year, this phone wasn’t launched in Nepal at all. But looking at its features, it shouldn’t cost more than NPR 20,000–22,000 once it arrives in the market.

MSI Crosshair 16 HX AI 2025 launched in Nepal with Core Ultra and RTX 50-series processor

Just last month, MSI unveiled their brand new MSI Crosshair 16 HX AI laptops. And now the laptops has arrived in Nepal sooner than expected. This new gaming laptop, which is packed with the Intel Core Ultra Series processor and RTX 50-series, might be the one for the gamers. So, without wasting any time, let’s dive into what it has to offer as well as the expected MSI Crosshair 16 HX AI 2025 price in Nepal.

MSI Crosshair 16 HX AI 2025 Overview

Build and display

The MSI Crosshair 16 HX AI looks exactly the same, both from the top and bottom, as the non-AI variant. We can see the RGB logo on top of the lid and also the crosshair touch near the trackpad. The keyboard includes a dedicated co-pilot button with 24 zones of RGB backlighting. The built-in HD camera is kind of a disappointment, though.

MSI Crosshair 16 HX AI build

And unfortunately, we don’t see any changes regarding the display, either. This 16-inch, like its predecessor, boasts the same QHD+ resolution with a variable refresh rate of up to 240 Hz. And yes, it is an IPS LCD panel with 100% DCI-P3 coverage. Nevertheless, it is still pretty good and should not make a difference when you are gaming.

Redesigned Cooling

One of the most crucial changes MSI has made is regarding the cooling for this gaming beast. This new cooling design, which is called “Cooler Boost 5,” is said to be more efficient in cooling. This design features dual fans along with five shared pipes between the CPU and GPU. Additionally, it has a larger thermal pipe diameter and also includes MSI’s exclusive thermal grease. MSI claims it can perform at its best even under heavy load gaming.

Processor and graphics

The new model also tastes the Intel Core Ultra processor. Hence, the added “AI” in the name is due to the processor’s AI capabilities from the NPU inside. As for the graphics, it will now be paired with the new RTX 50-series card.

Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor inside the MSI Crosshair 16 HX AI 2025

The laptop is available in two options for the CPU and GPU. Firstly, the Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX processor, consisting of 20 cores and 20 threads with a max speed of 5.2 GHz, is paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060. And later, the more powerful Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX with 24 cores and 24 threads and a 5.4 GHz turbo speed, which is paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070.

The combined power of both the CPU and GPU equates to a maximum of 170W with the use of MSI OverBoost Technology. Hence, it will ensure both of the processors are using their maximum power.

Memory

Both of the mentioned variants come with 16GB of DDR5 RAM in the 8GB x2 configuration. So, if you wish to upgrade your memory, you will have to remove one of the 8-gig sticks. Nevertheless, it supports up to 96 GB RAM.

As for the primary storage, it comes with 1TB of NVMe PCIe Gen 4 SSD. And yes, it is upgradable with an extra M.2 SSD slot that supports Gen 5 as well.

The rest of the features

For connectivity, we get Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. There are two 2W speakers for audio output with a headphone combo jack. Moreover, you get one Thunderbolt 4 port with a couple of Type A ports as well. If you prefer to game on an external monitor, you can plug in an HDMI 2.1 cable, which is capable of 8K resolution but at 60 Hz; for 120 Hz, you have to switch to 4K.

Keeping the laptop alive is the 90 Wh 4-cell battery, which is charged via a 240 W adapter. If you are engaged in long gaming sessions, I recommend you plug in the power supply at all times.
