Honor Play 10C goes official with a massive 6,000mAh battery

Honor has announced the release of the new budget phone — the Honor Play 10C — in China. It brings quite a few upgrades over last year’s Honor Play 9C, so let’s learn everything about the new Honor Play 10C, including its expected price in Nepal.

Honor Play 10C Overview

Design and Display

There have been quite a few changes regarding the design this time. Both for the front camera and the ones at the back. So the Honor Play 10C has a hole-punch cutout instead of the teardrop design, while the circular rear camera module looks slightly bigger now. It uses a dual-ring design with the main lens, flash, and decorative element on a textured back for a more modern look.

Honor Play 10C comes in a total of 3 colors — White, Black, and Green. It’s also IP64 dust and splash resistant, meaning it can withstand some water splashes, but it’s not designed for prolonged rain exposure. Up front, it has a 6.61-inch TFT LCD display with up to 120Hz refresh rate and 1,010 nits of full-screen brightness.

As for the cameras, it has a single 13MP rear camera and a 5MP selfie unit.

But the biggest upgrade on the Honor Play 10C is definitely in terms of battery. Since it now has a 6,000mAh battery versus a 5,200mAh battery on its predecessor. The charging speed has also slightly gone up from 10W to 15W, with an option for 2.5W reverse wired charging.

NepMeds secures NPR 2 crore deal on Shark Tank Nepal for its online pharmacy platform

Another startup walked away with funding on Shark Tank Nepal, this time it’s NepMeds – an online pharmacy and digital healthcare platform that landed NPR 2 crore for 40% equity. This article will discuss everything about NepMeds, including their business model, services, and current market position in Nepal.

NepMeds Platform Overview

Digital Pharmacy Business

NepMeds operates as Nepal’s online pharmacy, and it lets users order prescription and over-the-counter medicines through their website or mobile app.

Nepmeds

They’re covering the basics you’d expect – generic medicines, branded drugs, wellness products, vitamins, supplements, and even Ayurveda items. But they’re not stopping at just medicines. The platform also stocks beauty products, baby care items, surgical consumables, and medical devices.

Beyond Medicine Delivery

Here’s where it gets more interesting – they’ve expanded beyond just selling pills. You can book online doctor consultations, schedule lab tests, arrange vaccinations, and store health records on their platform. They’ve also built a health and wellness content library. Whether people actually want all these services bundled together or prefer specialized platforms for different needs is something the market will decide.

User Experience and Payments

The platform lets you upload prescriptions, track orders, and set refill reminders. Payment options include cash on delivery, mobile banking through e-Sewa and Khalti, cards, or their in-app wallet.  One feature they highlight is the ability to order medicines from abroad for family back home. Could be useful for the large Nepali diaspora.

Revenue Claims

During their Shark Tank pitch, the founders claimed they’ve generated NPR 7 crore in total revenue since inception. Now, let’s see how it goes for them in the long run.

VayuDrishti bags NPR 1 crore deal on Shark Tank Nepal with air quality monitors

A Nepali startup just secured NPR 1 crore for 40% equity on Shark Tank Nepal, and their pitch was pretty compelling – a locally-made air quality monitoring device that costs 90% less than imported alternatives. This article will discuss everything about VayuDrishti’s air monitoring device, including its price in Nepal, specifications, and what makes it different from smartphone apps.

VayuDrishti Air Monitor Overview

The Hyper-Local Pitch

VayuDrishti Air monitor

When the sharks asked why anyone would buy a separate device instead of just checking air quality on their phone, the founders had their answer ready. Phone apps, they claimed, only show generalized data for larger areas – but air quality can supposedly vary dramatically even within short distances.

Their argument was that your phone might show the same reading whether you’re near a busy road or in your backyard.

The Device Claims

The device tracks PM2.5, PM10, CO₂, and O₃ levels, plus environmental factors like temperature, humidity, wind speed, and direction. All this data syncs to a dashboard in real-time.

It costs around USD 350, which they say is roughly 90% cheaper than imported monitoring systems. But whether most people actually need this level of hyper-local data monitoring is debatable – especially when basic air quality info is already available for free, and in my opinion, the climate crisis is impending in such an catastrophic way, that we might have even expected, such tech “solution” could probably be washed up in vain if bigger issues are not adressed first.

Power and Practicality

Anyway, the system supports both solar and grid power, so you can install it basically anywhere. This flexibility should be crucial for Nepal, where power reliability can be an issue in some areas. The team also mentioned they also have an air purifier to complement the monitoring device.

Technical Capabilities

The device covers a wide range of measurements. PM2.5 and PM10 go up to 1000 μg/m³, CO₂ measures up to 5000 ppm, and ozone tracks up to 1000 ppb. Temperature range is massive too – from -40°C to 85°C, which should handle any climate conditions in Nepal.

Wind speed measurement goes up to 60 m/s, and humidity covers the full 0-100% range. All things considered, it’s a comprehensive monitoring solution.

VayuDrishti Monitor Price in Nepal and Availability

The device costs around USD 350 internationally, and in Nepal, it is priced at approximately NPR 20,000. After securing NPR 1 crore funding on Shark Tank Nepal, the startup should be able to scale production and potentially bring costs down further.

Infinix GT 30 5G+ launched with gaming shoulder triggers 

Infinix just dropped their latest gaming phone, and they’re targeting mobile gamers hard with dedicated shoulder triggers and a 144Hz AMOLED display. Now, let’s read this article, where I will discuss everything about the latest Infinix GT 30 5G+, including its expected price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.

Infinix GT 30 5G+ Overview:

Display and gaming features

You’re getting a massive 6.78-inch AMOLED screen with a 144Hz refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling. The peak brightness hits 1,600 nits (HBM), which is pretty wild for this price range. And it is also protected by Gorilla Glass 7i.

Infinix GT 30 5G+

But here’s the thing that caught my attention. The Infinix GT 30 5G+ actually includes dedicated shoulder triggers, which is something you’d usually find on phones costing twice as much. As you can see from the image above, it also has customizable lights at the back.

And if you are wondering about what “Shoulder triggers” I mean here, then, to simply put, it’s a capacitive button positioned on the sides of the phone that works like shoulder buttons found on game console controllers. 

The display also packs 2304Hz PWM dimming, and if you’re into BGMI, it supports 90fps gameplay, which is solid.

Performance and software

At its core is the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 SoC paired with 8GB LPDDR5X RAM. While storage options range between 128GB and 256GB (UFS 2.2). As I already mentioned before, the performance of the GT 30 5G+ should be smooth for most games.

You’re getting Android 15 with XOS 15 on top, so at least the software is current. And to keep things nice and cool, Infinix has also included a 3D vapor chamber cooling system on this phone.

Camera and battery

The camera setup on the Infinix GT 30 5G+ is pretty basic. With a 64MP main (Sony IMX682), an 8MP ultrawide, and a 13MP front shooter. They’re clearly not trying to compete with camera phones here, and that makes sense given the gaming focus.

Infinix GT 30 5G Plus design

Battery life should be decent with the 5,500mAh capacity, plus 45W fast charging is pretty decent as well. To make sure the phone doesn’t heat up that much when you’re playing some games while keeping it plugged in, it also supports bypass charging.

Build and connectivity

For security, the Infinix GT 30 5G+ has an in-display fingerprint scanner. Whereas the company has also onboarded stereo speakers and an IP64 rating for basic water resistance for this phone. Connectivity options include Bluetooth 5.4, WiFi 6, and they even threw in an IR blaster.

Infinix GT 30 5G+ Specifications:

  • Display: 6.78-inch AMOLED, 144Hz, 1.5K resolution, 1,600 nits (HBM), 4,500 nits (HDR) peak brightness
  • Processor: MediaTek Dimensity 7400 (4nm)
  • Memory: 8GB LPDDR5X RAM, 128/256GB UFS 2.2 storage
  • Rear Cameras: 64MP main + 8MP ultrawide
  • Front Camera: 13MP (hole-punch cutout)
  • Battery: 5,500mAh with 45W fast charging
  • OS: Android 15 with XOS 15
  • Special features: Gaming shoulder triggers, in-display fingerprint
  • Protection: IP64 rating
  • Connectivity: 5G, Bluetooth 5.4, WiFi 6, IR blaster

Infinix GT 30 5G+ Price in Nepal and Availability

In India, this phone goes on sale from August 14, 2025, where it costs INR 19,499 for the 8/128GB and INR 20,999 for the 8/256GB variant. We expect the price of the Infinix GT 30 5G+ in Nepal to start at around NPR 35,499 when it launches here.

Infinix GT 30 5G+ Price in India (Official) Price in Nepal (Expected)

Redmi 15 5G launched with a massive 7,000mAh battery and a 144Hz display

Xiaomi just dropped the Redmi 15 5G in Malaysia, and they’re going all-in on battery life with a whopping 7,000mAh cell – the largest they’ve ever put in a global smartphone. This article will discuss everything about the latest Redmi 15 5G, including its price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.

Redmi 15 5G Overview

Display and Design

You’re getting a huge 6.9-inch Full HD+ screen with 144Hz refresh rate and 288Hz touch sampling. But here’s something interesting – they added Wet Touch Technology 2.0, which means the screen actually works properly when your fingers are wet.

More often than not, budget phones struggle with this, so it’s a nice touch. The phone comes in three colors: Ripple Green, Titan Gray, and Midnight Black.

Performance and Software

At its core is the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 processor paired with 8GB RAM. Which is, of course, a flagship or anything super powerful type chip, but I think you’ll be able to game well, and it’s also decent for everyday multitasking.

Meanwhile, you’re also getting Xiaomi’s HyperOS 2.0 based on Android 15, plus virtual RAM expansion up to 16GB if you need the extra headroom. Storage is generous at 256GB internal, and they threw in microSD support up to 2TB.

Battery life champion

Okay, so here’s the main event – that 7,000mAh battery. This thing should easily last two days of normal use, maybe even more if you’re not a heavy user. Yeah, 33W charging isn’t the fastest around, but with this much capacity, you probably won’t need to charge daily anyway.

They also included 18W reverse charging, so you can juice up other devices in a pinch. All things considered, this is clearly a good sign that most smartphones are moving in a good direction, focusing on batteries. I really hope Samsung does the same as well.

Camera and Features

Redmi 15 5G

The camera setup is – 50MP main sensor with an unspecified auxiliary lens, plus an 8MP front camera. They’re not trying to compete with camera phones here, and that makes sense given the focus on battery life and affordability.

Security is handled by a side-facing fingerprint sensor, and you get IP64 water resistance for basic protection. Audio gets Hi-Res Audio and Dolby Atmos support.  They packed in some AI tricks too – Circle to Search, AI Eraser, AI Sky, and Dynamic Shots. These are becoming standard on most Xiaomi phones now, so it’s good to see them trickle down to budget devices.

Redmi 15 5G Specifications

  • Display: 6.9-inch Full HD+, 144Hz, 288Hz touch sampling, Wet Touch Technology 2.0
  • Processor: Snapdragon 6s Gen 3
  • RAM: 8GB (expandable up to 16GB virtual)
  • Storage: 256GB + microSD up to 2TB
  • Rear Camera: 50MP main + auxiliary lens
  • Front Camera: 8MP
  • Battery: 7,000mAh with 33W charging, 18W reverse charging
  • OS: HyperOS 2.0 based on Android 15
  • Security: Side-facing fingerprint sensor
  • Protection: IP64 water resistance
  • Audio: Hi-Res Audio, Dolby Atmos
  • Colors: Ripple Green, Titan Gray, Midnight Black

Redmi 15 5G Price in Nepal and Availability

The phone launched in Malaysia at MYR 729 (around USD 170), and when it makes it to Nepal, it would start at no less than NPR 24,999. Xiaomi has scheduled the India launch for August 18, 2025, so Nepal shouldn’t be too far behind either.

OpenAI’s “PhD-level” GPT-5 model is finally here

OpenAI’s “PhD-level” GPT-5 model is finally here

When talking about AI, all of our minds go straight to OpenAI’s ChatGPT. With the AI race reaching new heights, we can always expect them to bring something new. And after months of waiting, the new GPT-5 model from OpenAI is finally here. The best part is that it is also available for free users.

What is new in the OpenAI GPT-5 model?

According to the company, this is the “smartest, fastest, most useful model yet”. And that it has “PhD-level intelligence”. It supposedly has improved performance across various areas like coding, health, creative writing, and visual perception.

And impressively enough, GPT-5 has already climbed to the number 1 spot in LMArena’s leaderboard less than 24 hours after its launch.

OpenAI GPT-5

The best part is that GPT-5 is a reasoning model that offers a unified experience. This means you no longer need to switch between different models to get the right kind of response. It’s built around a “real-time router” that can quickly decide which model to use based on what you’re asking it. 

Coding

The one area where this model excels the most is coding. OpenAI reports it outperforms the o3 model in over 70% of internal “frontend coding” evaluations. It also shows stronger results across broader coding benchmarks and is now used in agentic tools like Cursor, Windsurf, and GitHub Copilot to improve developer workflows.

On “Aider Polyglot”, an evaluation of code editing with GPT‑5 recorded a new high of 88%, a one-third reduction in error rate compared to o3. Along with that, it also recorded the highest in the SWE-bench with 74.9% accuracy.

More honest, safer, and helpful responses

Other than this, OpenAI says they have worked hard to make GPT‑5 significantly less susceptible to hallucinations. It shows a sixfold drop in hallucinations compared to GPT‑4o, based on benchmarks like LongFact and FActScore.

They found that OpenAI o3 still gave confident answers about nonexistent images 86.7% of the time, versus just 9% for GPT‑5. It recognizes when tasks can’t be completed rather than manipulating the user.

In GPT‑5, OpenAI has also introduced a new form of safety training called “safe completions,” which helps the model to give the most helpful answer. And if the model needs to refuse a response, it will provide an answer to why it is refusing, as well as provide other safer alternatives.

Whereas it also supposedly reduces its rate of sycophantic replies — aka insincere flattery — from 14.5% to less than 6%.

How to access GPT-5 model?

The GPT-5 model started rolling out yesterday to all OpenAI subscribers, including free users. Although you will default to “GPT-5 mini” — a smaller model — once you hit your usage limits.

And you might wanna upgrade to OpenAI’s “Plus” subscription for USD 20/month for extended access. Or to the USD 200/month “Pro” tier for unlimited access. Moreover, “Pro” users will also get access to “GPT-5 Pro” that thinks for longer for the most comprehensive results.

For developers, GPT-5 will be available in three API sizes: gpt-5, gpt-5-mini, and gpt-5-nano. With prices ranging from as low as USD 0.05 per 1 million input tokens for the “gpt-5-nano” to USD 1.25 per 1 million input tokens for “gpt-5”.

Honor 400 Smart 5G launched in Europe with a 6,500mAh battery

Honor has added yet another entry in its 400 series of smartphones: the Honor 400 Smart 5G. It’s the most affordable phone in the lineup, which already consisted of Honor 400 (review), Honor 400 Pro (review), and Honor 400 Lite (review). So let’s learn more about the Honor 400 Smart 5G, including its specs, features, and expected price in Nepal.

Honor 400 Smart 5G Overview

Design and Display

Honor 400 Smart 5G is available in two colors: Black and Grey. It has a squarish camera module that we have seen on Honor’s budget phones, like Honor X8c (review). Other than this, the phone weighs around 189 grams, is IP64 dust/splash resistant, and is also SGS-certified for drop and crush resistance.

Honor 400 Smart 5G - Display

Up front, the Honor 400 Smart 5G brings a 6.77-inch TFT LCD panel with an HD resolution. This is actually a downgrade compared to the FHD+ display on the Honor 200 Smart, by the way. Along with that, the peak brightness has also gone down from 850 nits to 700 nits. Although you’re still getting a smooth 120Hz refresh rate here.

In terms of performance, this Honor phone is powered by a Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 (6nm) chip. This has been paired with 4GB RAM and 128GB storage, while we expect Honor to add some more memory configurations for the phone shortly.

And software-wise, it runs on Android 15 with Honor’s Magic OS 9.0 on top. The company also promises 5 years of OS + security updates for this guy.

The Honor 400 Smart 5G gets a big upgrade in the battery department, though. That’s because compared to a 5,200 mAh battery on its predecessor, it now has a massive 6,500 mAh unit. Then again, the charging speed has remained the same at 35W.

Honor has kept things almost boringly simple for the cameras on this phone. So you have a 50MP f/1.8 main camera and a 2MP depth sensor at the back, followed by a 5MP selfie shooter that sits inside the hole-punch cutout.

Honor 400 Smart 5G Specifications:

  • Body: 166.9 x 76.8 x 8.4 mm, 189 gm
  • Durability: IP64 dust/splash resistant
  • Display: 6.77-inch TFT LCD, HD resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 700 nits

Xiaomi is apparently testing a Redmi phone with a massive 9,000mAh battery

Digital Chat Station just dropped some wild info about Xiaomi testing a Redmi phone with an absolutely bonkers 8,500-9,000mAh battery. And the crazy par is that they’re apparently keeping it at just 8.5mm thick. This article will discuss everything about the latest Redmi battery rumors, including specifications and what this could mean for the smartphone market.

Redmi Battery Beast Rumors

The Numbers Game

Redmi phones

The idea of getting a 5000 mAh battery was a mere fiction back in the day. But it is absolute bonkers that we are now in a timeline, where we are talking about a battery that’s pushing 9,000mAh territory here. To put that in perspective, most flagship phones barely crack 5,000mAh. Xiaomi’s current battery champ is the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro with 7,550mAh, just imagine the jump, and the amount of hours this phone will hold.

What’s really interesting is they’re claiming 8.5mm thickness — basically the same as regular Redmi phones. Makes you wonder what kind of battery tech wizardry they’re pulling off behind the scenes.

Self-Developed Battery Tech

Xiaomi’s apparently cooking up their own battery solution for this beast. The key selling point or this would be, as they say, it won’t mess with charging cycle lifespan, which is usually the trade-off with these massive batteries. Most high-capacity batteries tend to degrade faster, but if Xiaomi’s cracked that code, this could be a game-changer.

The Competition Heats Up

But Xiaomi is not only one in this battle, as Honor is supposedly working on a 10,000mAh phone, and iQOO’s already shipping 8,000mAh devices. It’s like everyone suddenly realized people are tired of charging their phones twice a day.

Mystery Model

We don’t know which Redmi phone will get this battery treatment first. Could be a new Turbo variant, or maybe they’re planning something completely different. Given Redmi’s track record, it’ll probably hit the mid-range market first before trickling down.

But in think its also worth noting that, getting 9,000mAh into an 8.5mm phone sounds almost too good to be true. Battery density improvements have been incremental for years, so either Xiaomi’s made a breakthrough or they’re optimizing space usage in ways nobody else has figured out. The charging cycle claim is equally ambitious. Usually, higher capacity means more stress on the battery chemistry, leading to faster degradation. If they’ve solved that, it’s huge.

Redmi Battery Availability

No official word on pricing or launch dates yet. This is still in testing phase according to the rumors.
