Samsung’s latest midrange phone under Rs. 50,000, the Galaxy A34, has been quite a success. And now, the Galaxy M34 is official in India with an Exynos 1280 chip. So let’s delve into the specifications, features, and expected price of the Samsung Galaxy M34 in this article.
Samsung Galaxy M34 Overview:
Design and Display
The Galaxy M34 looks similar to the A34. On the front side, you get the same U-shaped notch. While Samsung has also retained a plastic frame and plastic back panel. However, the Galaxy M34 is void of IP67 dust and water resistance. As for the display, the M34 features a 6.5-inch AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and Full HD resolution. Samsung flaunts this device in three options: Midnight Blue, Prism Silver, and Waterfall Blue.
Performance
The Galaxy M34 uses a homegrown Exynos 1280 chipset like its predecessor, the M33. This is a 5G silicon with two Cortex-A78 cores at 2.4GHz for performance and six Cortex-A55 units at 2.0GHz for efficiency. Samsung has paired the chip with 6GB and 8GB of RAM and up to 128GB of internal storage. On the software side, the smartphone boots on OneUI 5.1 built on top of Android 13 with four years of OS and five years of security updates promise.
Camera
Getting to the optics, the Galaxy M34 possesses a triple camera setup. It is headlined by a 50MP shooter with OIS, accompanied by an 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro unit. Upfront, there is a 13MP camera for snapping selfies and taking video calls.
Samsung has always amped the battery size on M series phones and this might is also no exception. The M34 packs a 6000mAh battery under the hood. And the charging speed is capped at 25 watts. But to no one’s surprise, you will have to buy the charger separately. Furthermore, the connectivity options include 5G, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a USB Type-C port.
Battery: 6000mAh with 25W fast charging (no charger inside the box)
Color Options: Midnight Blue, Prism Silver, Waterfall Blue.
Samsung Galaxy M34 Price in Nepal and Availability
In India, the Galaxy M34’s official price starts at INR 16,999 for the base 6/128GB version. We can expect the Samsung Galaxy M34 price in Nepal to start at Rs. 27,999 for the 6/128GB variant when it launches here.

Garmin, widely recognized for its GPS-equipped wearables, has launched the new “Epix Pro” smartwatch in India. Geared towards outdoor activity enthusiasts, it offers a bunch of impressive features such as up to 31-day battery life and a built-in flashlight. Let’s dive into the specifications, features, and expected price of the Garmin Epix Pro smartwatch in Nepal.
Garmin Epix Pro Overview:
Design and Display
When it comes to the design, the Epix Pro has a circular body crafted with a fiber-reinforced polymer case, complemented by a titanium bezel and a steel rear cover. It is available in three dial sizes: 42mm, 47mm, and 51mm — each featuring a 1.2-inch, 1.3-inch, and 1.4-inch display, respectively.
And Garmin says this smartwatch has also passed U.S. military standard tests for thermal, shock, and water resistance. As aforementioned, you get a built-in flashlight to navigate in the dark, while the Epix Pro is 10 ATM water resistant too. As for the display itself, the Epix Pro watch sports an AMOLED panel with Always On Display support.
Health and Navigation features
Like other Garmin watches, the Epix Pro features heart rate, SpO2 (blood oxygen saturation), sleep, and stress monitoring. It also has women’s health tracking, body energy, 24/7 wellness monitoring, HRV status, and morning report features
Whereas navigation features on the Garmin Epix Pro include multi-band GPS, access to enhanced topo maps, and ABC sensors (Altimeter, Barometer, and 3-axis Compass). Other features like multi-continent maps, Skyview maps, and golf course maps enable easy navigation in your adventures. You can also access turn-by-turn directions and round-trip routing on this smartwatch.
Epix Pro encourages you to train better with different features like Training Readiness, Real-Time Stamina, Suggested Workouts, and Performance Metrics. And to improve your form, there’s Visual Race Indicator, Recovery Time indicator, and Garmin Coach.
You can use Activity Profiles to get data and insight from your activities or track your HIIT workouts using the Epix Pro. There are also Animated Workouts to follow along with if you’re out of ideas. The watch also provides separate modes for activities like surfing or MTB cycling where you can track the details of wave surfaced or total distance traveled.
Garmin Epix Pro Specifications:
Case: 42mm / 47mm / 51mm
Material: Titanium bezel, Fiber-reinforced polymer with steel rear cover
The official price of the Garmin Epix Pro starts at INR 111,990 in India and USD 900 in the US for the 42mm and 47mm versions. Similarly, the 51mm model costs INR 123,490 or USD 1000. While it’s highly unlikely this smartwatch officially launches in Nepal, we expect the Garmin Epix Pro price in Nepal to start at NPR 182,000 if and when it does.
I had recently published a review of Samsung’s Galaxy A24 last week, and I thought that phone was the best phone under 30 thousand rupees! But Samsung has now launched the Galaxy M14 model in the Nepali market for just around 25 thousand rupees. After testing this phone for some time, what I can say is: Please, don’t buy the Galaxy M14.
M14 is not a bad phone, but for just an additional 4 thousand rupees, you can buy the Galaxy A24, which is a much better phone. The only thing that M14 is better than A24 is that M14 supports 5G while A24 is a 4G phone.
However, considering the context of Nepal, it will still take around 2 more years for 5G to be officially available from NTC and Ncell in Nepal, and it will take even more time for 5G to be widely available. So, honestly speaking, 5G doesn’t hold much importance in Nepal. And overall, Galaxy M14 is an average offering.
Samsung Galaxy M14 5G Specifications:
Dimensions: 166.8 × 77.2 × 9.4mm
Display: 6.6″ PLS LCD, 90Hz, FHD+ resolution
Chipset: Samsung Exynos 1330 5G (5nm)
Memory: 4/6GB RAM, 64/128GB storage (expandable)
OS: Android 13 with One UI Core 5.1 on top
Rear Cameras: Triple (with LED flash)
– 50MP, f/1.8 primary sensor
– 2MP, f/2.4 macro sensor
– 2MP, f/2.4 depth sensor
– Up to 1080p @ 30fps videos
Front Camera: 13MP f/2.0 (Up to 1080p @ 30 fps videos)
Battery: 6000mAh with 25W fast charging
Biometrics: Side-mounted fingerprint reader
Wireless Connectivity: WiFi 5 (dual-band), Bluetooth 5.2
Starting with the design, I didn’t find it particularly attractive. Samsung has provided attractive designs and color options in their A-series phones. From the 20 thousand rupees A14 to the 60 thousand rupees Galaxy A54, all A-series phones have a high-end design similar to the S23 series. But Samsung has given the M14 an outdated design. Plus, the material used on the back feels cheap.
Also, I’m pretty sure that if you use this phone without a cover, it will develop scratches on the back within a year or so and will lose its shine.
The hands-on feel is decent. The phone is not too heavy. The curved sides provide a good grip. The placement of the fingerprint scanner is also good. Although the fingerprint scanner takes a little time to read, it is accurate.
Battery and Charging
6,000mAh battery
25W fast charging
No charger in the box
The major selling point of the Galaxy M14 is its 6,000mAh battery. With a full charge, this phone can last up to 2 days with normal usage, including social media, video streaming, and light gaming. Even heavy users can easily get a day’s usage out of this phone.
For charging, Samsung has provided 25W fast charging support in this phone, which can charge the large battery from 0 to 100% in around 2 hours. However, like other Samsung phones, the charger is not included in the M14’s box. So, you will have to spend an additional 2000 rupees to buy a Samsung charger!
Now, one of the main reasons why I am not recommending the Galaxy M14 5G is its display. Looking at the specs, the display may seem fine, but the brightness aspect of this phone’s display is really weak!
Under normal usage, it may not make much difference, but when you use it outside in bright sunlight, the visibility becomes really poor, especially when compared to the A24.
The display quality is decent. However, it is not an AMOLED panel, but an LCD. So, I felt that the vibrancy and black levels were lacking. In fact, the display quality of this phone is even inferior to the much cheaper Redmi Note 12!
Performance
Octa-core Exynos 1330 (5nm Mobile Platform)
4/6/8GB RAM, 64/128GB Storage (expandable)
Likewise, in the Galaxy M14, you’ll get Samsung’s Exynos 1330 chip, which was also used in the A14 5G. Specs-wise, this chipset is quite impressive. It features a 5nm processor with two powerful Cortex-A78 CPU cores and a Mali G68 GPU. In terms of benchmarks, the Exynos 1330 outperforms the Snapdragon 685 found in the Redmi Note 12 and is on par with the Helio G99 found in the Galaxy A24.
However, just like the A14, Samsung hasn’t optimized this chipset well in the M14. Based on my experience, the M14 doesn’t provide as smooth a day-to-day experience as the A24. There are slight lags here and there.
Similarly, games are not well-optimized on this phone. For example, in PUBG, you can only play at up to 30 fps, and in games like COD Mobile, Mech Arena, and Critical Ops, even at higher fps, you may experience occasional frame drops. The phone’s cooling solution is not very effective either, so it tends to heat up during prolonged gaming sessions.
Software and UI
Android 13 with One UI Core 5.0 on top
2 years of OS, 4 years of guaranteed security updates
In terms of software, the M14 runs on the latest Android 13 with One UI Core 5. Samsung’s UI is good, and there aren’t many bugs. The overall UI feels smooth, even in 90Hz mode, without noticeable stuttering.
Moreover, Samsung promises 2 years of Android updates and 4 years of security updates for the M14, which is more than what other companies typically offer in this price range.
Camera
Triple camera setup at the back

16MP selfie camera (notch cutout)
In terms of the camera, the M14 performs consistently better than most Chinese brand phones. Samsung’s optimization and color science engineering are better in this regard.

So, most of the time, the photos taken with this phone turn out well, with good skin tones and dynamic range in portraits and selfies.

I compared the camera of this phone with that of the Redmi Note 12, and as you can see, the M14’s photos are slightly better most of the time.

However, the downside of the M14’s camera is that it can only record videos up to Full HD resolution, and it lacks an ultra-wide-angle camera. The low-light performance is not particularly impressive either.

Samsung Galaxy M14 Review: Conclusion
So, considering everything I’ve mentioned, if you spend just 4000 more, you can get a much better device with the Galaxy A24. With the A24, you’ll have a superior AMOLED screen with better brightness, more optimized performance, an ultra-wide-angle camera, and better low-light photography. Additionally, the A24 has a premium look and feel, and it offers 4 years of OS updates compared to the M14’s 2 years.
Therefore, even if you have a budget of around 25,000, I think the Redmi Note 12 is a better option than the M14 overall. With the Note 12, you’ll get a 120Hz AMOLED display, better performance, a nice design, and a 33W fast charger included in the box.
Alongside the Narzo 60 Series, Realme has also launched the Realme Buds Wireless 3 in India. This neckband boasts some impressive specs like Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) of up to 30dB and 13.6mm dynamic bass drivers. So in this article, we’ll walk through the specs, features, and expected price of the Realme Buds Wireless 3 in Nepal.
Realme Buds Wireless 3 Overview:
Design
Starting with the design, Realme Buds Wireless 3 brings a dual-tone vibe on two color options: Bass Yellow and Vitality White color variants. The Pure Black version maintains the single-tone black color. This time, the neckband brings an IP55 for water and dust resistance, an upgrade from the IPX5 from its predecessor, Realme Buds Wireless 2.
The buds boast a magnetic instant connection. Users can simply turn on the neckband by operating the earbuds.
Audio
Producing the audio on the neckband is a 13.6mm dynamic bass driver. Realme has also provided a 360 degrees Spatial audio effect. On top of that, it also supports SBC and AAC codecs for high-quality playback. While the main USP becomes the 40dB noise cancellation on the Buds Wireless 3, thanks to ANC support. Likewise, it also offers 45ms latency for gaming.
The battery life on the Realme Buds Wireless 3 is rated for up to 40 hours with ANC off. While with ANC on, you get up to 26 hours of usage time. The neckband also supports fast charging which can fill up the cell in just 50 minutes. Furthermore, the neckband comes with Google Fast Pair support and dual device connection.
Realme Buds Wireless 3 Specifications:
Driver: 13.6mm dynamic bass driver
Connectivity: Wireless (Bluetooth v5.3, up to 10 meters range)
Color: Bass Yellow, Vitality White, and Pure Black
Realme Buds Wireless 3 Price in Nepal and Availability
In India, the Buds Wireless 3 is priced at INR 2,999. However, the preorder price is set at INR 1,699. We can expect the Realme Buds Wireless 3 price in Nepal to be NPR 5,499 when it launches here.

In this review, I will be talking about the Redmi Note 12 5G — the latest mid-range phone from Xiaomi in Nepal. A few months ago, Xiaomi launched the 4G version of this phone, which was a great value-for-money product. However, that phone had some shortcomings, such as an average camera and the use of the Snapdragon 685 chipset, which didn’t offer the best gaming performance. Additionally, the 4G version didn’t support 5G connectivity.
With the Note 12 5G, Xiaomi has addressed these shortcomings by providing better cameras, improved performance, and, as I mentioned earlier, 5G support. Despite these upgrades, the price of the Note 12 5G is only slightly higher.
This phone is available in two variants: the 6+128GB variant, priced at around 30,000 Nepali Rupees, and the 8+256GB variant, priced at 32,000 Nepali Rupees. In my opinion, paying an additional 2,000 Nepali Rupees for 2GB of extra RAM and double the storage is a smart decision.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 5G (Global) Specifications:
Body: 165.88 x 76.21 x 7.98mm, 188gm, IP53 dust/water resistant
Okay, let’s start the video. Inside the box of this phone, besides the phone itself, you’ll find the regular Xiaomi mid-range phone accessories, including a clear case, a SIM ejector tool, paperwork, and a 33W charger. Unlike Samsung, Xiaomi hasn’t removed the charger, so there are no additional costs.
Design and Display
165.88 x 76.21 x 7.98mm, 188gm
IP53 dust/water resistant
6.67″ FHD AMOLED
120Hz refresh rate. 1200 nits peak brightness
The Note 12 5G has a slightly different design compared to the 4G model. The back of the phone is slightly curved, and the camera module stands out a bit. The curved design provides a good grip, and the matte finish on the phone doesn’t attract smudges. Overall, I don’t have any major complaints about the design; it looks good and feels comfortable to hold. Xiaomi has also retained the IR blaster and headphone jack, which I’m pretty satisfied with.
Moving on to the display, things look really good. The Note 12 5G features a Samsung-made AMOLED panel, which offers vibrant colors and excellent contrast. Xiaomi has also optimized the display with a 120Hz refresh rate, providing a smooth experience while watching videos or interacting with the screen.
Performance and Software
Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 (6nm)
Up to 8GB LPDDR4x RAM, Up to 256GB UFS 2.2
Android 12-based MIUI 13
In terms of performance, this phone delivers. The Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 chipset handles regular tasks well, and it’s a good option for gaming too. Games like PUBG, COD, and Mech Arena run smoothly, even in high settings. The phone’s heat management is also impressive; even during extended gaming sessions, I didn’t notice significant heating issues. I also conducted a CPU throttling test, and as you can see, the results were great, with no significant throttling even at 95%. The phone’s sustained performance is excellent.
However, when it comes to software, Xiaomi still has some work to do. For some strange reason, the Note 12 5G still runs on Android 12, while the 4G version comes with Android 13 out of the box. Recently, the Note 12 5G received the MIUI 14 update, but there’s no news about an Android update yet. Xiaomi hasn’t provided any official information, but it’s unlikely that this phone will receive updates beyond 2 years, which means it may not receive Android 14.
Camera
Triple rear camera
48MP primary + 8MP ultrawide + 2MP macro
8MP selfie
Now, let’s talk about the camera. The Note 12 5G comes with a triple camera setup consisting of a 48MP primary camera, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro sensor. In most lighting conditions, the camera of this phone captures decent photos, but it lacks the typical contrast seen in Redmi phones. Sometimes, it struggles to maintain a good dynamic range, but most of the time, it delivers satisfactory results.

On the other hand, the 8MP ultra-wide camera is average, lacking in detail, and the main camera’s dynamic range and colors are not exceptional.
In terms of video, the phone can shoot up to 1080p at 30fps using both the front and back cameras. However, the stabilization is not particularly great, but it’s acceptable for casual video recording.
Rest of the features
5000mAh battery
33W fast charging
The battery life of the Redmi Note 12 5G is impressive. The 5000mAh battery easily lasts throughout the day, and the included 33W charger can fully charge the phone in about an hour. Lastly, let’s discuss the 5G capabilities of this phone. It supports a total of 12 5G bands, so if NTC/Ncell brings 5G to Nepal in the future, you’ll be able to enjoy 5G speeds on this device.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 5G Review: Conclusion
So, overall, the Redmi Note 12 5G is a great phone for its price of around 30,000 Nepali Rupees. Redmi has managed to offer competitive pricing compared to the Indian market, and the specifications of this phone are well-balanced.
In the 30,000 Rupees price range, there aren’t many options for a 5G phone with good overall specs. For example, the Realme 9i 5G, available within the same price range, has mediocre specs, and Samsung’s Galaxy A14 5G is not as impressive. In such a scenario, the Note 12 5G stands out as a really good option.

Alongside the highly anticipated Red Magic 8S Pro series of smartphones, Nubia recently announced its first tablet as well. The new Red Magic Gaming Tablet brings all the bells and whistles you’d expect from a premium tablet, so let’s get into its features, specifications, and expected price in Nepal.
Red Magic Gaming Tabet Overview:
Design and Display
Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet has a modern-looking boxy design like the latest iPad Pros. There’s a rectangular camera island at the back while its power button on the side has an accented red highlight too. The tablet weighs 613 grams and measures 6.5mm at its thinnest point.
Up front, Red Magic Gaming Tablet sports a 12.1-inch IPS panel with a 2.5K (2500 x 1600 pixels) resolution. It has a 144Hz refresh rate, 240Hz touch sampling rate, and can reach a peak brightness of 600 nits. Moreover, the bezels surrounding the screen are slim and uniform — thus giving the tablet a pretty slim profile.
Under the hood, Red Magic Gaming Tablet is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip. It’s a 4nm processor with an octa-core CPU, led by one Cortex-X2 core. Whereas an integrated Adreno 730 GPU handles the graphics part.

Honor’s revival is going strong and the company has launched a plethora of smartphones lately. And the company has now unveiled the Honor X50 and Honor X50i in China. So let’s get into the specs, features, and expected price of the Honor X50i in Nepal.
Honor X50i Overview:
Design and Display
The Honor X50i cares a lot about aesthetics. The phone boasts a slim profile with flat frames at 7.48mm thickness. Plus, it weighs 179 grams only. Looking at the back, there is the Venn diagram-type camera module intersecting each other. Honor ships this phone in four color options: Magic Night Balck, Blue, Apricot Flower Feather, and Willow Wind.
Things get more interesting on the front. The X50i sports a narrow bezel LTPS LCD panel with a 90Hz refresh rate and a 93.6% screen ratio. This FHD+ display bags a “Low Blue Light” protection from TÜV Rheinland too.
Performance
Under the hood, the Honor X50i gets a Dimensity 6020 5G processor. This 7nm SoC from MediaTek features two Cortex-A76 cores at 2.2 GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores at 2.0 GHz. Built on a 7nm process, it has Mali-G57 MC2 GPU for handling the graphics. And yeah, the Dimensity 6020 is just a rebranded version of the Dimensity 700 5G from 2021.
In terms of memory and storage, you get two variants: 8/256GB and 12/256GB. And the Honor X50i boots on MagicOS 7.1 built on top of Android 13.
As for the optics, this phone rocks a dual camera setup, headlined by a 100MP f/1.9 main and a 2MP f/2.4 depth-sensing unit. With that high-res primary camera, you can even take 10x digital zoom shots. Upfront, there is an 8MP f/2.0 snapper for selfies and video calls.
