Valve’s Steam Deck handheld gaming PC is a $399 Nintendo Switch killer

Valve has announced its first Nintendo Switch-like handheld gaming console, called the Steam Deck. It lets you play your favorites Steam games on the go. So, let’s get into the specs, features, availability, and expected price of Valve Steam Deck in Nepal.

Valve Steam Deck Overview:

If you’re unaware, Valve is a video-game developer company that also has its hands in the hardware business. It is behind the popular titles like Dota 2, CS: GO, and others.

Design and Display

Here, the Steam Deck is similar to the Nintendo Switch (or Switch OLED) in that it is a handheld gaming machine with full-sized controllers. It also has a detachable dock that allows you to easily connect it to an external monitor.

Steam Deck features a 7-inch optically bonded LCD screen with a 60Hz refresh rate, 400 nits brightness, and an ambient light sensor. This handheld gaming PC measures 298mm x 117mm x 49mm and weighs 669 grams.

Valve Steam Deck Design and Display

Performance

As per its specifications, it is more than a simple game console—it’s a portable PC. Powering the device is an AMD APU with Zen 2-based 4C/8T CPU that has a max turbo frequency of 3.5GHz. On the GPU front, it features octa-core Radeon graphics based on RDNA 2 architecture. Valve says this APU has a configurable TDP between 4 – 15W.

Memory-wise, it comes with 16GB LPDDR5 RAM, and three storage options to choose from. The base variant has 64GB eMMC (PCIe Gen 2 x1), 256GB NVMe SSD (PCIe Gen 3 x4), 512GB high-speed NVMe SSD (PCIe Gen 3 x4). There’s also a micro SD card slot to expand the storage.

However, the company has confirmed that despite the difference in storage protocols, “there is no in-game difference in frame rates or graphics quality”. In terms of software, the Deck boots on Arch-based SteamOS 3.0. You can even install Windows on the Steam Deck if you’d like.

Controls

Furthermore, this handheld gaming PC is crammed with all the controls you’d expect to see on a console. It has A, B, X, and Y buttons, as well as a D-pad, L and R analog triggers and bumpers, View and Menu buttons, and four assignable grip buttons.

Similarly, there are two 32.5mm square trackpads on the left and right. When compared to the Steam Controller, these trackpads offer 55% lower latency. For easier control, it includes a 6-axis IMU gyroscope too.

Valve Steam Deck Controls

On the wireless connectivity front, it utilizes Bluetooth 5.0 and dual-band WiFi (ca). Unlike the Nintendo Switch, it supports Bluetooth audio as well. Additionally, there’s a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port with DisplayPort 1.4 support that is capable of transferring up to 8K videos at 60Hz.

Rest of the specs

Besides all of this, the console boasts a stereo speaker setup with a dual-microphone array and stereo 3.5mm headphone jacks. Likewise, with 40Whr of battery, Valve promises up to 8 hours of gameplay (depending on the game).

A dock sold separately

Steam Deck, like the Nintendo Switch, has a dock that lets you connect it to your computer or monitor. This USB Dock provides Display Port, HDMI 2.0, an Ethernet adapter, and three USB (2x USB-A 2.0, 1x USB-A 3.1) inputs. As expected, you’ll have to buy it separately although Valve hasn’t confirmed the price just yet.

Valve Steam Deck Specifications:

  • Body: 11.7 x 4.6 x 1.8-inches, 669 grams
  • Display: 7-inches diagonal, 1280 x 800 (16:10), 60Hz LCD touchscreen

    • 512GB high-speed NVMe SSD (PCIe Gen 3 x4)
  • Audio: Stereo speakers, 3.5mm stereo jack, dual mics
  • Controls: Two analog sticks with capacitive touch, D-pad, face buttons, analog triggers, bumpers, assignable grip buttons, “view” and “menu” buttons, gyro
  • Trackpads: Two (left and right)
  • Wireless connectivity: Dual-band Wi-Fi (a/b/g/n/ac) and Bluetooth 5.0

Valve Steam Deck Price in Nepal and Availability

The price of Valve Steam Deck starts at USD 399 for the 64GB model. The company will start its shipping in December in the US, UK, Canada, and EU while other regions will have to wait until 2022. We expect the price of the Valve Steam Deck in Nepal to start at around NPR 57,000 if it launches here.

Vivo S10 and S10 Pro Overview:

Design and Display

Here, the Vivo S10 and S10 Pro are similar in a lot of aspects, including their design and display. Both come with a 6.44″ flat Super AMOLED panel which supports a 90Hz refresh rate. Vivo S10 series has a bathtub-like notch which is quite rare in Android phones these days. There is an optical fingerprint scanner underneath the screen.

Vivo S10 Pro Display and Design

The thickness and weight of these phones vary according to the color variant. The gradient version is the heaviest and the thickest at 175 grams and 7.43mm, respectively. Vivo has used a photochromic material for the back. Thus, these phones will reflect differently depending on how light strikes their surface.

This tiny wearable strip can turn your sweat into electricity!

This tiny wearable strip can turn your sweat into electricity!

Researchers at the University of California have developed a tiny sweat-powered wearable device that can use the sweat of the wearer to produce electricity. Though its capacity is limited for now, researchers believe they can scale the technology to a point where it can power a smartphone.

Sweat-powered Wearable Overview:

This sweat-powered wearable resembles a Band-Aid. It comes in the form of a thin and flexible strip that you can wrap around your fingertip.

Passive energy generation

Unlike other similar power-generating wearables, this doesn’t require active user participation. It can produce electricity when the wearer is passive as well. Even when the wearer is asleep, the device won’t stop generating electricity.

In addition, it can also generate power from physical activities that involve finger pressing, such as typing, playing piano, and tapping Morse code.

How does it work?

Here, the carbon foam electrodes in the device absorb the user’s sweat. The enzymes present in the electrode initiates a chemical reaction between the lactate and oxygen molecules of human sweat to produce electricity.

In addition, there is a piezoelectric material that produces electricity separately when pressed. The electricity produced this way is stored in a small capacitor and discharged when necessary.

Why fingertips?

Here, fingertips are among the sweatiest parts of the human body. Each fingertip has over a thousand sweat glands. They result in sweat volume that is 100 to 1000 times bigger than any other body part. However, we rarely feel the sweat on our fingers as they are always exposed to air.

Sweat glands at fingertips

Present Scale

At its current state, the sweat-powered wearable can generate up to 400 millijoules of energy from ten hours of sleep. Researchers believe it can power a smartwatch for 24 hours. However, it is the production capacity from a single fingertip. Applying it over all ten fingers will produce 10 times the energy. In the initial test, it has powered a display-equipped Vitamin C indicator.

Nepal Rastra Bank launches its own Android app

Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB), the central bank of Nepal, has announced a smartphone app of its own. This app notifies users about the latest notices and updates from NRB and is available on early access for now.

Nepal Rastra Bank App: Overview

Nepal Rastra Bank has many grounds to cover when it comes to its digital presence. To note, it doesn’t even have an official social media handle right now, which most government bodies have these days.

To make matters worse, NRB had to clarify through a press release earlier this month as people were being scammed by fake Facebook pages pretending to be Nepal Rastra Bank. In this regard, the announcement of an official app does look like a step forward in bridging the information gap between the general public and NRB.

Nepal Rastra Bank App Snapshots

Talking about the app itself, let me once again remind you that it is still in development. It has a simple and minimalistic UI. As of now, it contains information including directives, circulars, foreign exchange rates, monthly statistics, and reports—all of which are available on NRB’s website.

You can enable notifications from the settings too. Here, you will be able to choose the category of information you are interested in.

Still in the development phase

In its official press release, the central bank of Nepal has said that it is open to suggestions and feedback from the public for the app’s refinement. For the final version, NRB can add a feature to submit and track Financial Consumer Protection complaints from within the app. Right now, the app redirects users to NRB’s website for the same.

Nepal Rastra Bank App: Availability

The beta version of the app is available for early access via Google Play Store. Additionally, its iOS version is also under development.

After its debut in the Chinese market last month, the Oppo Reno 6 series has finally arrived in the Indian market. However, only the Reno 6 and Reno 6 Pro 5G have made it outside of China. That being said, let’s get into the specifications, features, and expected price of the Oppo Reno 6 and 6 Pro 5G in Nepal. 

Oppo Reno 6, 6 Pro 5G Overview:

Design and Display 

Here, the standard Reno 6 features a 6.43-inch AMOLED panel while the Pro variant debuts with a larger 6.55-inch AMOLED screen instead. Both of them support FHD+ resolution, 90Hz refresh rate, and HDR 10+. Plus, Oppo has secured SGS Eye Care and Netflix HD certification for these phones as well.

Oppo Reno 6 Display

Coming to the design, the Reno 6 series appears to have been inspired by the iPhone 12 with its flat edges. However, the higher-end 6 Pro has a curved layout.

Similarly, both smartphones have a quad-camera arrangement on the back and a punch-hole on the left side of the screen. Oppo says it secured 20 global patents to come up with the shimmering anti-glare design for the Reno6 series.

Performance

Over on the performance, unlike the Reno 6 Pro+ 5G available in China, these smartphones are powered by MediaTek mobile platforms. The standard Reno 6 is driven by Dimensity 900 while the Pro variant is powered by the company’s flagship Dimensity 1200 SoC. In terms of memory, they are available with up to 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB of storage. To note, Reno 6 has UFS 2.1 storage while the Pro variant adopts UFS 3.1 protocol.

Rest of the specs

Moving on, Reno 6 and 6 Pro have an identical camera arrangement, with one difference. The latter features an additional 2MP lens for portrait shots. Otherwise, both the devices have a 64MP primary, an 8MP ultra-wide, and a 2MP macro sensor.

Aside from that, the Pro variant has a 4,500mAh battery, while the vanilla Reno 6 gets a smaller 4,300mAh battery. Both of them support 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging though. Running the show is Oppo’s ColorOS 11.3 on top of Android 11. Similarly, you’ll find an optical in-display fingerprint scanner on both devices.

HiFuture TidyBuds Pro Review: Earbuds And A Mini Power Bank

Battery life is a major concern for anyone looking to buy a pair of budget wireless earbuds. Most of them only offer 3-4 hours of playback and 2-3 charge cycles with the carrying case. Thus, it was a big deal when HiFuture launched TidyBuds Pro in Nepal last year. Not only does it boast 8 hours of playback time on a single charge, but HiFuture also claims that its case can provide 96 hours of additional battery life with its massive 3000mAh case. After having used it for a couple of weeks, here’s our review of the HiFuture TidyBuds Pro.

HiFuture TidyBuds Pro TWS Specifications:

  • Body: 7.5 x 2.5 x 4.5cm, 87 grams (case)
  • Sound Driver: 6mm graphene drivers
  • Chipset: Realtek 8763B
  • Battery: 70mAh (earbuds), 3000mAh (case)
  • Music Time:
    • Earbuds: Up to 8 hours
    • With case: Up to 96 hours
  • Connectivity: Bluetooth 5.0
  • Audio Codec: AAC, SBC
  • Control: Touch
  • Noise Cancellation: No
  • Color options: Black, White
  • Water resistance: IPX5 rating
  • Companion app: No
  • Extra: Case doubles as a power bank
  • Price in Nepal: Rs. 4,999

HiFuture TidyBuds Pro Review:

Design and Build

  • In-ear design, IPX5 certified

HiFuture TidyBuds Pro comes in an in-ear design that doesn’t stick out much from the ear. It’s made out of plastic, and the one I tested had a black finish. It is also available in a white color option.

Additionally, these earbuds are quite bulky, as they fit a 70mAh battery each. It has a tiny stalk that goes into the ear. You will find an eartip at its end, while HiFuture provides additional eartips in the box as well.

As for their comfort, these earbuds fit quite nicely to my ears. For a firm grip, put it in the ear and twist it a little until it conceals the ear canal. Like I mentioned earlier, TidyBuds Pro is comparatively heavier than other budget TWS earbuds I have tested so far.

TidyBuds Pro - Case

Regardless, the default eartips are small and not that great in terms of comfort. Thus, you would want to swap it with something bigger and more comfortable. Anyway, these earbuds are IPX5 rated and thus, can be worn during workouts. You need not worry about sweat damage here.

  • Meanwhile, check out all the latest prices and specs of HiFuture earbuds here

Charging case

Because of its massive 3,000mAh battery, as expected, TidyBuds Pro’s charging case is quite large. You’ll also feel its weight when carrying it around in your pocket. It has an LED battery indicator on the front with a “HiFuture” branding just below it.

At the back, there is a USB Type-C and a Type-A port. The latter is a power-out connection so that you can charge your phone and other compatible gadgets via this case. Like the earbuds, it also has plastic construction. However, fingerprint marks and smudges are more prominent here.

Pairing

  • Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity

These earbuds connect to your smartphone, tablet, or laptop via Bluetooth 5.0. You can even use one earbud at a time. Pairing it with your device is quite standard. Simply take the earbuds out of the case, turn on Bluetooth on your phone, and hit pair once it detects the TidyBuds Pro.

Throughout my usage, these earbuds maintained a strong connection no matter what device I connected them to. Yet, in a couple of instances, one of the earbuds would be subject to nearby interferences. That being said, it never disconnected.

Controls

  • Touch sensor on either earbud
  • Volume, playback control options
  • No companion app for customization

HiFuture TidyBuds Pro feature touch-enabled controls. And thankfully, there is a lot you can do here. Like with other TWS earbuds, there’s the option to play/pause the music with a simple tap. In addition, you can adjust the volume with a double-tap while it lets you summon your phone’s voice assistant with a triple-tap.

TidyBuds Pro - Design 2

To change tracks, you’ll need to long-press on either earbud. Unfortunately, the controls are not that snappy. And most of the time, they won’t even recognize your touch. This made changing tracks so frustrating that I had to reach out to my phone most of the time.

Fair to say, I would have liked it more had the controls been customizable. Alas, this issue seems to be unfixable since TidyBuds Pro doesn’t sync with a companion app so that HiFuture may push an OTA update addressing it.

Audio, Call Quality

  • 6mm graphene drivers
  • Built-in microphones

While these earbuds don’t have active noise cancellation, their passive noise isolation is impressively competent at dampening most of the outside noise. It obviously doesn’t magically make the noise disappear but subdues it largely. You will need to achieve a pretty tight fit to achieve this though.

Coming to the actual sound quality, TidyBuds Pro will be more appealing to the bassheads. The bass is fairly deep and even overpowers the instruments and vocals at times. That was the case during the chorus of “all i know” by Machine Gun Kelly and Trippie Redd. The vocals are not downright awful but lack clarity.

Even in acoustic songs like Machine Gun Kelly’s “bloody valentine – Acoustic”, the audio output sounds muffled while the mids and highs aren’t clear enough to be enjoyed. Moving on, the call quality is not that great either. People on the receiving end often complained about the clarity of my voice.

Battery

  • 70mAh (earbud), 3000mAh (case)
  • 8/96 hours playback (earbuds/case)

Nevertheless, with its 70mAh battery, these earbuds lasted me over 5 hours on a single charge when listening to songs at over 80% volume most of the time. That’s quite impressive if you ask me. Additionally, I didn’t have to charge the case as frequently as I’ve had to with other TWS earbuds in the past either.

TidyBuds Pro - Design 1

A full charge was enough to get me through the week. Here, the case juices up over a Type-C port while the entire process takes around 2 hours to complete. Its 3,000mAh capacity means you can even use it to charge other accessories including smartphones—through the aforementioned Type-A connection.

HiFuture TidyBuds Pro Review: Conclusion

To conclude, HiFuture TidyBuds Pro offers unmatchable battery life in the budget segment. There is practically no other TWS in the market whose carrying case can double as a mini-power bank. If you travel a lot, these could be the earbuds right for you.

On the other hand, its sound quality is just passable for the price. And if you are not that into bass, you’re better off looking at some alternatives like the OPPO Enco W11—while upping your budget by a little gets you the Realme Buds Air 2 Neo which is our current favorite pick for the best budget TWS earbuds.

HiFuture TidyBuds Pro Review: Pros & Cons

Pros:

  • Tight and comfortable fit
  • Good passive noise isolation
  • Bass-heavy sound signature
  • Tremendous battery endurance

Cons:

  • Default eartips aren’t that good
  • Touch control is not snappy
  • Highs and mids are overshadowed
  • Call quality is pretty dismal

Apple announces MagSafe Battery Pack for iPhone 12 series

Months after the iPhone 12 series announcement, Apple has introduced a new MagSafe accessory for these phones. While unofficial battery packs from third-party vendors are readily available, the company’s move to launch an official battery pack is fascinating. So, let get into the features, specifications of the Apple MagSafe Battery Pack along with its expected price in Nepal.

Apple MagSafe Battery Pack Overview:

Snap-Snap

To begin with, the Apple MagSafe Battery Pack has a capacity of 1460mAh and can charge any model of iPhone 12 with up to 5 Watts of power. That’s comparable to the old square iPhone wall chargers and it’s less than 15 Watts you get from a regular MagSafe charger.

Apple MagSafe Battery Pack Design

You can snap the Battery Pack on the back of an iPhone, thanks to its embedded magnets. Similarly, it works with all four phones of the iPhone 12 family – the iPhone 12, 12 Mini, 12 Pro, and 12 Pro Max. It is available in a single white color option and has a silicone coating on the front.

Charging

The pack itself charges via a lighting cable and can also recharge iPhone at the same time. According to Apple, charging the pack using a 20W or higher USB-C power adapter increases the 5W charging speed to 15W. Maybe if it was able to supply 15W of power even without connecting the cord, things could’ve been a lot more impressive.

Moreover, the MagSafe Battery Pack will only work on iPhones running iOS 14.7 or later. Similarly, the battery percentage of the case will appear in the battery widget and on the lock screen of the iPhone.

Apple MagSafe Battery Pack Price in Nepal

Apple has launched the MagSafe Battery Pack for USD 99 and it is available in the sole white color option. You can pre-order it right now while the actual shipping will begin next week. We expect the price of the Apple MagSafe Battery Pack in Nepal to be NPR 15,000 if and when it launches here.

Charger Price in the US Price in Nepal (Expected)
Apple MagSafe Battery Pack USD 99 NPR 15,000
