Samsung will continue its multi-year partnership with AMD

Samsung announced its partnership with AMD nearly four years ago, with the intention of using AMD’s RDNA architecture-based GPU in its mobile processors. The South Korean tech giant has decided to extend their partnership for another several years. In this article, we’ll learn more about the Samsung-AMD collaboration.

Samsung-AMD Partnership History

Samsung previously used ARM-Mali GPUs in their Exynos processors, but their performance was inadequate to defeat market leader Qualcomm. As a result, in June 2019, Samsung announced an alliance with AMD to use RDNA GPUs in Exynos. Last year, Samsung and AMD worked together on designing RDNA 2 architecture, and Samsung introduced its own Xclipse 920 GPU based on that architecture.

AMD RDNA 2 GPU in Samsung Exynos 2200 intial test 3D Mark WildlifeWith the promise of console-like gameplay on mobile devices, Xclipse was the industry’s first mobile GPU with hardware-accelerated ray tracing and variable rate shading features. That GPU was then used in Exynos 2200 which we witnessed in the Galaxy S22 series (Europe variant). However, the Exynos 2200 couldn’t compete with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 as expected. In case you don’t know, AMD technology is also used in gaming consoles like PS4 and Xbox One. But most surprisingly, AMD graphics can also be found in some Intel CPUs!

Partnership Extension

According to a recent press release from Samsung, Exynos will continue to use AMD GPUs. Seogjun Lee, Executive Vice President of Application Processor (AP) Development at Samsung Electronics said that “Together with AMD, Samsung has been revolutionizing mobile graphics, including our recent collaboration that brought ray tracing capability to mobile processors for the first time in the industry.”

AMD GPUs will likely be included in the budget and midrange chipsets as well. Xclipse GPU may soon be seen in Galaxy A, Galaxy F, and Galaxy M series smartphones, as well as more affordable Galaxy Tab series devices. With this collaboration, Samsung will get a stronger GPU, while AMD will gain more audience exposure.

Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G is the old wine in a new bottle

Seems like the Redmi Note 12 Series is not stopping with three or four basic models. Xiaomi has sneakily refreshed the Note 10 Pro Max as the Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G moniker with identical specs in the Indonesian and some European markets. So, let’s get into the specs, features, and expected price of the Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G in Nepal.

Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G Overview:

Xiaomi has packed the same old Snapdragon 732G chipset on the Note 12 Pro 4G model, reminiscing the Note 10 Pro Max. The 4G silicon from 2020 features two Kryo 470 Gold cores (Cortex-A76) at 2300MHz and 6 Kryo 470 Silver cores (Cortex-A55) at 1800MHz.

Based on an 8nm process, it is accompanied by Adreno 618 GPU for graphics. The chipset is paired with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of expandable internal storage. As for the software, the phone boots on MIUI 13.

Design and Display

The Note 12 Pro 4G follows the flat frame boxy design language as its Note 12 Series siblings. To remind you, the Note 10 Pro came with curved frames. Besides that, the camera module also has a new look this time around.  Nonetheless, you still get a side-mounted fingerprint scanner embedded in the power key.

Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G Design and Display

Moving to the display, the phone sports a 6.67-inch AMOLED panel with a Full HD+ resolution. The punch-hole screen retains the same 120Hz refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling rate from the Note 10 Pro Max. What’s new here is the addition of Dolby Vision support.

Camera

For the optics, you get a quad-camera setup on the back headlined by a 108MP main series. Joining it is an 8MP ultrawide, 2MP depth, and 5MP macro unit. This setup is capable of recording 4K videos. Upfront, you get a 16MP selfie snapper.

Rest of the specs

Fueling the smartphone is a 5000mAh battery. The brand has doubled the charging speed this time from 33W to 67W fast charging support. Talking of the connectivity options, it includes Dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 ac (2.4GHz + 5GHz), Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, NFC, IR blaster, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a USB Type-C port.

Sony A6100 Price in Nepal [Updated]

Sony A6100 is an entry level camera designed for beginners. Boasting a 24MP APS-C CMOS sensor with Autofocus, the camera offers significant improvements over its predecessor, the A6000. Let’s get into the specs, features, and official price of the Sony A6100 camera in this article.

Sony A6100 Overview:

Being an entry-level device Sony A6100 lacks professional-grade features. But the handset packs some modest specs and can please the ones, who are early into photography.

Just like the A6600 on the older A6400, A6100 gets a 24.2MP APS-C sensor. But unlike the A6600, there is no in-body stabilization. So the users entirely have to depend on the in-lens stabilization or a tripod to get steady shots.

Although Sony differentiated the A6100 from A6600 by removing the in-body stabilization, most of the specs still remain the same. You get the same BIONZ X image processor, 3-inch flip-up touchscreen LCD oversampled 4K video recording with full-pixel readout, Sony’s Real-Time Tracking autofocus system, and 425-point hybrid autofocus system with 84% frame coverage. You can also attain burst shooting of 11fps with focus tracking.

sony a6100 specs

But when it comes to the viewfinder, the A6100 genuinely falls short of its expensive sibling. The Sony A6100 features a 1.44M-dot EVF, which is significantly lower than the 2.36M-dot EVF on the A6600 and A6400. Similarly, the ISO range maxes out at 51200 on A6100, whereas it’s 102,400 on the A6600. Furthermore, the A6100 lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack but you can get a mic jack. And since it’s an entry-level model, you can’t use Eye AF during video recording.

Sony A6100 Price in Nepal & Availability

The official price of Sony A6100 price in Nepal is NPR 99,000. You can purchase the camera from stores in New Road, Kathmandu.

Sony A7R IV Price in Nepal [Updated]

Sony Electronics announced the launch of a 61 MP Sony A7R IV Mirrorless camera a while ago. However, after months of waiting, the Sony A7 R IV is finally available in Nepal. It is available for purchase from Sony Stores located in Kathmandu.

Sony A7R IV Overview

Sony has certainly given their best with this camera. A whopping 40% increase in the resolution of the camera is really saying something! But the increase in pixel density can make the dynamic range and high ISO performance can suffer. However, Sony claims 15 stops of dynamic range and excellent high ISO performance for their new high-res sensor. Not only this, Sony claims 10 frames per second and burst of up to 68 images at full resolution. Now, you can have it all and have it very soon, it seems.

sony alpha a7r iv specs

Some camera enthusiasts may claim, the 24 MP provides a balance between adequate resolution together with manageable file size. However, Sony lovers are gravitating towards the higher resolution options for maximum print quality or aggressive cropping in post-production. It seems to me, this camera is a viable option which is a portable package that includes a larger range of lenses and vastly superior AF performance i.e. compared to Medium format options.

Sony WF-C700N earbuds launched with ANC, IPX4 water resistance

Sony has launched a new pair of wireless earbuds called “WF-C700N” ahead of the rumored WF-1000XM5. It’s the successor to 2021’s Sony WF-C500 and brings active noise cancellation (ANC) among other upgrades. Let’s learn more about the Sony WF-C700N, including its full specifications, availability, and expected price in Nepal.

Sony WF-C700N Overview:

Design

To come up with the design of these earbuds, Sony claims it has used ear shape data collected all the way since 1982. And the company is confident that the WF-C700N “perfectly matches the human with an ergonomic surface design for a more stable fit”. Additionally, its housing is 37% lighter and 38% smaller than its predecessor.

Sony WF-C700N Design

The earbuds weigh approximately 4.6 gm each, while the case weighs approximately 31 gm. Furthermore, the Sony WF-C700N is water-resistant to IPX4 too. Sony sells these earbuds in black, white, lavender, and sage green color options.

Audio

In terms of audio, Sony has included 5mm drivers here. There’s also DSEE (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) support which restores details in compressed audio files for a richer listening experience. You can create a custom equalizer for the WF-C700N via the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app.

Sony WF-C700N - Case

As aforementioned, these earbuds support ANC too. And Sony has gone one step further by including adaptive ambient sound control, which automatically adjusts ambient sound levels based on where you are and what you’re doing. Sony says WF-C700N has a more natural-sounding ambient mode too. Its onboard microphone with mesh structure is said to reduce wind noise for clearer phone calls as well.

Rest of the specs

Moving on, Sony has not disclosed the exact battery capacity of these earbuds but says they’re good for 7.5 hours of playback with ANC on. Or 10 hours with ANC turned off. And unlike the premium Sony WF-1000XM4, you don’t get wireless charging support here. For connectivity, it has Bluetooth 5.2 with SBC and AAC codecs.
