OPPO F23 5G goes official with 120Hz IPS display, 67W fast charging

OPPO’s “F” series is a pretty popular lineup of midrange smartphones from the Chinese tech giant. And OPPO F23 5G is the latest addition to this series, which is an apparent successor to 2021’s OPPO F19 since last year’s OPPO F21 Pro series didn’t have a vanilla F21 model. By the way, OPPO F23 5G is a simple rebrand of the OPPO A98 that launched in Malaysia a week ago. So let’s get into the specs, features, and expected price of OPPO F23 5G in Nepal.

OPPO F23 5G Overview:

Design and Display

Like how most OPPO phones have a special emphasis on visual aesthetics, the F23 5G gets a similar treatment. It boasts a boxy form factor with 8mm thick flat frames. Looking at the rear side, the circular camera module is encased in a pill-shaped frame with a shiny glowing pattern flowing below. The back panel is also 3D curved and carries a glossy outlook, especially on the “Bold Gold” color variant. Whereas the “Cool Black” derives a subtle dark look.

Oppo F23 5G Design and DisplayOn the front, you get a 6.72-inch IPS LCD panel with an FHD resolution. This screen has a 120Hz refresh rate, a 240Hz touch sampling rate, and covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut too. Thanks to its LTPS technology, the display also features a 6-level variable refresh rate option.

Performance

And running the show on the OPPO F23 5G is Qualcoomm’s Snapdragon 695 5G chipset, which is almost two years old now. This mid-range silicon consists of two Kryo 660 Gold (Cortex-A78 @2.2 GHz) and six Kryo 660 Silver cores (Cortex-A55 @1.7 GHz). Handling the graphics here is an Adreno 619 GPU.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G SoC

For a 2023 smartphone, this chip should still suffice the needs for casual everyday usage and some gaming. But something newer like the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 would’ve been a much better choice. The phone is available in a sole 8GB RAM and 256GB storage configuration and boots on ColorOS 13.1 built on top of Android 13.

Camera

Moving on, OPPO F23 5G houses a triple camera setup, headlined by a 64MP f/1.7 primary shooter. It is followed by a 2MP microscopic sensor with 20/40x zoom and a 2MP monochrome unit. Yep, there’s no ultrawide camera here. Upfront, you get a 32MP f/2.4 selfie camera with 89° FoV. Sadly, both the front and back cameras can only record up to 1080p 30fps videos.

Battery and Others

This smartphone gets its juice from a 5000mAh battery with 67W SUPERVOOC and 18W USB-PD charging support. For connectivity, it has 5G, WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.1, a USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Furthermore, OPPO F23 5G houses a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and dual stereo speakers.

OPPO F23 5G Specifications:

  • Display: 6.72″ FHD+ IPS LCD, 120Hz refresh rate, 240Hz touch sampling rate
  • Chipset: Snapdragon 695 5G (6nm)
  • Memory: 8GB LPDDR4x RAM, 256GB UFS 2.2 (expandable)
  • Software & UI: Android 13 with ColorOS 13.1 on top
  • Rear Camera: Triple (64MP main, 2MP microscope, 2MP monochrome)
  • Front Camera: 32MP (hole-punch cutout)
  • Security: Face-unlock, Fingerprint sensor (side-mounted)
  • Battery: 5000mAh with 67W charging

OPPO F23 5G Price in Nepal and Availability

Amazfit Pop 2 launched in Nepal with AMOLED screen and Bluetooth calling

Right after the launch of the Amazfit GTR Mini, Amazfit Pop 2 is now available in Nepal as well. This budget smartwatch comes with some pretty interesting features like an AMOLED display and Bluetooth calling. In this article, we’ll walk through the specs, features, and official price of the Amazfit Pop 2 smartwatch in Nepal.

Amazfit Pop 2 Overview:

Design and Display

Amazfit Pop 2 resembles the design language of the company’s “Bip” series of budget smartwatches. As such, it doesn’t have that premium look you’d expect from the more premium “GTS” or “GTR” lineup here. Still and all, it does come with a 2.5D curved screen encased in a glossy metallic frame.

Amazfit Pop 2 Design and Display

Its 1.78-inch AMOLED panel boasts a 368 x 448 pixels resolution and supports Always on Display (AOD) as well. Besides that, you’ll find the speaker and a button on the right frame while there’s a mic on the left and a PPG sensor at the bottom. For protection against dust and water damage, Amazfit Pop 2 is IP68 rated too.

Health and Fitness Tracking

This budget smartwatch bears all the basic health tracking features such as step counting, sleep tracking, heart rate, and SpO2 monitoring. As for sports and fitness, the watch provides 100+ sports modes to try, such as running, climbing, walking, basketball, football, and more. But Amazfit Pop 2 lacks built-in GPS, so you’ll have to carry your smartphone for recording location data.

Bluetooth Calling, OS, Connectivity

Moving on, one of the main highlights of this smartwatch is its Bluetooth calling feature. So users can receive and make calls from the watch itself. And since this watch is manufactured by LinWear Smartwatch, an ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) brand, its UI is a bit different than usual Amazfit smartwatches. Even the companion app for Pop 2 is “Zepp Active” instead of the regular “Zepp” app.

Still, this thing boasts all the goodies such as custom watch faces, music playback control, a camera shutter button, a weather app, a voice assistant, etc. It connects to your Android or iOS smartphone via Bluetooth 5.2.

Battery

Fueling this smartwatch is a 270mAh battery that gets filled with a magnetic charging connector in 2 hours. Its battery is rated to last for up to 10 days on typical usage.

  • Body: 51.7 x 38.8 x 13.2 mm, 59.4 gm (with strap)

Alongside the flagship Xperia 1 V, Sony also announced the midrange Xperia 10 V last week. It is the successor to last year’s Xperia 10 IV and brings a couple of upgrades like a brighter display, larger image sensors, and more. So let’s get right into the specifications, features, availability, and expected price in Nepal of the Sony Xperia 10 V.

Sony Xperia 10 V Overview:

Design and Build 

Sony Xperia 10 V camera

Like its predecessor, Sony Xperia 10 V has a plastic back and Gorilla Glass Victus-protected display. The phone is IP65 and IP68 dust/water resistant, and it weighs just 159 grams. It comes in Black, White, Lavender, and Sage Green color options.

The display here is a 6.1-inch FHD OLED panel with a tall 21:9 aspect ratio. Unfortunately, Sony hasn’t upgraded to a higher refresh rate this time either as the Xperia 10 V’s display still refreshes at just 60Hz. But Sony does say this screen can get up to 50% brighter than the one on the Xperia 10 IV, so that’s something.

Camera

Moving on, Xperia 10 V has three cameras at the back housed in a pill-shaped array. Sony has replaced the 12MP main camera with a 48MP 1/2.0″ Exmor RS sensor here. But its 8MP ultrawide, 8MP telephone zoom, and 8MP selfie camera remain pretty much the same.

Performance

Likewise, Xperia 10 V doesn’t get any upgrade in the performance department either. It is powered by the same-old Snapdragon 695 5G chipset which is complemented by 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. There’s still a microSD slot for expanding the memory though. The phone runs on Android 13 and is fueled by a big 5000mAh battery that supports USB-PD charging.

Sony Xperia 10 V Price in Nepal and Availability 

As for price, Sony Xperia 10 V will cost EUR 449 and it will be available in Europe from mid-June. While it’s unlikely that this phone officially arrives here, we expect the Sony Xperia 10 V price in Nepal to be NPR 77,000 if it does.

Asus ROG Ally is a $599 answer to Valve’s Steam Deck

Asus ROG Ally is a $599 answer to Valve’s Steam Deck

The handheld gaming console market is populated by the likes of Valve (Steam Deck), AYANEO, GPD, and more. And Asus—a veteran in the gaming phone and gaming laptop/PC industry—has officially joined in on the fun with the “ROG Ally”. So let’s learn more about the Asus ROG Ally including its features, specs, availability, expected price in Nepal, and more.

Asus ROG Ally Overview:

By the way, the company first announced the ROG Ally on April 1, which most of us dismissed as a simple April Fools’ joke. But no, it’s an actual product that you’ll be able to purchase starting next month.

Design

Asus says it has designed ROG Ally with optimal comfort in mind. This consists of slanted chassis for easier grip, careful button placements, and a fairly thin and lightweight design. Compared to the Steam Deck which measures 45mm thick and weighs 669 grams, the Ally is just 32mm thick while weighing around 608 grams.

Available in a single white color option, this Windows handheld machine has all the control options you could ask for. Including ABXY, directional buttons (D-pad), left/right analog thumb sticks with customizable RGB, left/right bumpers, and left/right hall triggers. On top of this, the ROG Ally also has view and command center buttons on the left, a menu and Armoury Crate button on the right, and a couple of programmable macro keys at the back.

Interestingly, Asus has reserved all the I/O options at the top of the device. You can find one 3.5mm headphone jack, one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port (with DisplayPort 1.4), one microSD card reader (UHS-II), and one ROG XG mobile interface. Then there’s a power button with Windows Hello-certified fingerprint reader embedded into it and the volume rockers too.

Display and Audio

Getting to the display, Asus ROG Ally has a glossy 7″ IPS LCD screen with an FHD resolution, a 16:9 aspect ratio, and a 120Hz refresh rate. To compare, Steam Deck features a 7″ FHD IPS display too, but with a 60Hz refresh rate and a taller 16:10 aspect ratio. With a 7ms response time and AMD FreeSync Premium support, ROG Ally’s display is also a step above most other Windows handheld devices.

Asus ROG Ally - Speakers

As for color accuracy, this touchscreen covers 100% sRGB and 75.35% AdobeRGB color gamut. To maintain better outdoor visibility, the ROG Ally gets as bright as 500 nits while there is Corning’s DXC coating to minimize screen reflections. Oh, and the display itself is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus. In terms of audio, Asus has set up a couple of front-firing speakers that support Dolby Atmos.

Performance

Performance-wise, the Asus ROG Ally comes in two flavors of AMD chips; Ryzen Z1 and Ryzen Z1 Extreme. Both of these processors are pretty similar to AMD’s latest “Phoenix” Ryzen 7040 series of APUs but customized for handheld devices.

Here, Ryzen Z1 is 6 cores/12 threads CPU with 2.8 teraflops of performance, a boost clock of 4.90 GHz, and a 4-core Radeon 740M GPU. While the Z1 Extreme is the real deal with 8 cores/16 threads CPU and a whopping 8.6 teraflops of performance, 5.10 GHz of max turbo frequency, and a 12-core Radeon 780M GPU. Built on TSMC’s 4nm process, Zen 4 CPU architecture, and RDNA 3 GPU architecture, Asus is promising some serious performance from these APUs. Around 50 – 60 fps at 1080p in most modern AAA titles.

AMD Ryzen Z1 series CPU

And if you’ve been keeping score, you’ll know that the Z1 Extreme is pretty similar to Ryzen 7 7840U. Anyway, can configure the Asus ROG Ally with three power profiles in total, ranging between 9 – 30W. Here, the “Silent” keeps the power consumption to a minimum at 9W, while the “Performance” and “Turbo” modes crank it up to 15W and 25W, respectively. And if you’re on AC power, this Windows handheld can even suck up to 30W of power.

More. power.

If that’s not enough GPU horsepower for you, then Asus even gives you the option to hook up an NVIDIA RTX 4090 or AMD RX 6850M XT external GPU via the aforementioned ROG XG Mobile Interface. Besides the extra bit of performance itself, Asus ROG XG Mobile docks also add a bunch of I/O options, including one HDMI 2.1, one ethernet (RJ45), one SD card reader, and one USB Type-A port. And in the case of ROG XG Mobile GC33 (the one with RTX 4090), an additional USB Type-C port too.

Memory options for the ROG Ally include 16GB LPDDR5 RAM in dual channel and 256GB SSD in the Ryzen Z1 or 512GB SSD in the Ryzen Z1 Extreme version. Both of them use an M.2 2230 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, by the way. To keep things nice and cool, Asus has used a dual-fan design with something called “anti-gravity” heat pipes that apparently provides better airflow when the device is upside down.

Asus ROG Ally - ROG XG Mobile Interface

And of course, it runs on Windows 11 (Home). So, unlike the Steam Deck which can only play games from your Steam library, the ROG Ally essentially lets you enjoy all the PC games. Asus is even throwing away 3 months of free “Xbox Game Pass Ultimate” here. On a related note, the Asus-made “Armoury Crate SE” app is there to help you make all sorts of customizations like limiting FPS, key mapping, power presets, and more. Or it can just double as a hub for all your installed games as well.

Battery and others

ROG Ally gets its juice from a modest 40Wh battery. And according to Asus, you can expect up to 2 hours of screen time with heavy gaming under “Performance” mode. Or up to 6.8 hours of YouTube/Netflix playback under “Silent” mode. On the other hand, it has WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 wireless connectivity.

While the vanilla Huawei Watch 4 has a 46mm dial, the Pro model features a bigger 48mm case. It is also forged with more durable materials.

Sony Xperia 1 V launched with a 52MP “EXMOR T” main sensor, 4K OLED display

After the multiple rumors sprouts, the Sony Xperia 1 V is finally here. This flagship phone bears some impressive specs, such as an EXMOR T sensor for mobile, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, and more. Let’s get into the specs, features, and expected price of the Sony Xperia 1 V in Nepal.

Sony Xperia 1 V Overview:

As the name suggests, the Xperia 1 V is the successor to last year’s Xperia 1 IV, which came with a 4K display and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset. Sony has only been launching one flagship phone per year—although the company did experiment with a “PRO” lineup as well in 2021.

EXMOR tech from the Alpha cameras

Sony is one of the pioneers when it comes to camera tech. What’s new here is that its 52MP 1/1.35″ primary camera uses an “EXMOR T sensor for mobile”, borrowed from Sony’s “Alpha” lineup of cameras for better pro-grade photographic capability. Here, instead of placing photodiodes and pixel transistors in the same substrate, the EXMOR T sensor’s “dual-layer” technology places them in different layers and then stacks them on top.

This optimization allows for a wider dynamic range with more details and higher contrast. And Sony claims 2x improvement in low light photography compared to its predecessor.

Likewise, there’s a 12MP ultrawide (16mm) and a 12MP telephoto camera (85 – 125mm) with OIS and f/2.3 – f/2.8 variable aperture. For selfies and video calls, a 12MP 24mm sensor is present upfront. Sony has also used its “EXMOR RS for mobile” tech on Xperia 1 V’s cameras. Furthermore, there is ZEISS T* anti-reflective coating on all lenses, whereas the ToF sensor says “hasta la vista” this time.

Design and Display

As a flagship phone, Sony has also emphasized on the build quality of this thing. Its rear side uses hardened glass in a frosted finish with tiny convex shapes for better resistance against fingerprint smudges and scratches. The phone is IP65 and IP68 dust/water resistant too. Not to forget, the Xperia 1 V has Gorilla Glass Victus protection at the back and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection on the display. The phone is available in three color options: Black, Platinum Silver, and Khaki Green.

And Sony continues to provide a 4K resolution alongside a 120Hz refresh rate on the Xperia 1 V as well. To top it all off, this screen also adapts the BRAVIA HDR remaster technology for high-quality visuals and colors.

Performance

Moving on, the Xperia 1 IV gets the horsepower of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip on the core. This 4nm processor houses a Kryo Prime core (3.2 GHz) based on Cortex-X3. It is backed by four performance cores (2.8 GHz) and three efficiency cores (2.0 GHz). The chip is paired with 12GB RAM and either 256GB or 512GB of internal storage. On the software side, the phone boots on Android 13 out of the box.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

More importantly, Sony says it has also improved the thermal solution here. The Xperia 1 V gets a 60% larger heat diffusion sheet, which should help with overheating concerns.

Battery and Others

Moving on, Xperia 1 V is fueled by a 5000mAh battery with 30W fast charging and Qi wireless charging support. The phone also retains a 3.5mm headphone jack and storage expansion of up to 1TB via a microSD card. To note, Sony is one of the very few smartphone makers to still offer both of these features on its flagship phones. Moving on, the connectivity options consist of WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, USB Type-C Gen 3.2, and NFC.
