Realme Buds T200 Lite launched in India at an affordable price!

Realme has announced a pair of budget earbuds alongside its Buds Air 7, and P series smartphones in India today. The Buds T200 Lite brings features such as dynamic bass drivers, dual device connection, and long-lasting battery life at an affordable price point. In this piece, let’s check out the Realme Buds T200 Lite alongside its expected price in Nepal, specs, and features.

Realme Buds T200 Lite Overview

Design and Audio

The Buds T200 Lite looks like your typical pair of in-ear buds with a silicone tip and long-stemmed design. The buds feature an IPX4 water and sweat resistance for protection against splashes but the case itself doesn’t feature an IP rating. That being said, there are things to love about it as well like the fun purple color option, the golden ring (on the black variant), and the endurance it adds. More on that later!

In terms of audio drivers, Realme has shipped the Buds T200 Lite with 12.4mm ‘Dynamic Bass’ drivers this time around. Being roughly a quarter size larger than their predecessor, Buds T200 Lite should deliver thumper bass and louder audio. Since all the marketing around the earbuds is surrounded around “Top Bass”, you should expect uplifted lows and heavy bass over a flat or neutral sound profile.

Battery Life and Connectivity

Realme claims that the Buds T200 Lite can last up to 48 hours with the case at 50% volume using the AAC codec. Note that the buds also support SBC audio codec but there’s no fancy LDAC or high-res audio. The buds themselves can last up to 7 hours (50%, AAC) so you can charge your buds up to 6 times from your case. And if you ever run out completely a quick 10-minute charge can add an additional 5 hours of playback. Buds T200 Lite will retain at least 80% of its original battery health even after 500 cycles so there’s no worry about longevity as well.

The Buds T200 Lite has Bluetooth 5.4 for connectivity and there’s dual-device pairing as well. Alongside that, the brand also mentions an ultra-low latency mode for gamers and dual microphones with AI for ENC during calls.

HP Victus 15 (2025) is here with lots of configuration options!

While HP refreshed its Victus 15 lineup at CES, they have added a few more configurations into the mix now. There are just way too many CPU and GPU options to choose from now. In this article, let’s talk about the HP Victus 15 (2025), its specifications, availability, and price in Nepal.

HP Victus 15 (2025) Overview

Plenty of CPU and GPU options

The Victus 15 is very popular among the budget gaming crowd for its affordable price point as well as bang-for-buck performance. Well, HP has offered quite a number of configurations for that audience with at least three generations of Intel and AMD CPUs.

You can configure your 2025 Victus 15 with Intel’s 13th Gen Raptor Lake chips (Core i7-13620H or Core i7-13650HX), 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh chips (Core i7-14650HX), or the “newer” Raptor Lake Refresh Core 7 240H chips. Essentially, they are all based on the same architecture but span three different generations.

Things are just as chaotic on the red team, with AMD CPUs ranging from the relatively newer Kracken Point (Ryzen AI 7 350) to 2023’s Hawk Point (Ryzen 9 8945HS) not excluding the rebranded Hawk Point Refresh (Ryzen 7 260).

We see that trend continue to the GPU as well, where you can have a Victus 15 with the latest RTX 50 series, the RTX 40 series, the 30 series, and even the 20 series. That might be a little too many choices for your average Joe to navigate but fret not as we’ll keep you updated as these machines make their way here a few months from now.

Display and Build

The display is essentially unchanged from the previous generation with a 15.6” FHD IPS screen running at 144Hz with up to 300 nits of brightness. But HP says there’s an option for an upgraded FHD webcam with Windows Hello support on select models which was missing before. The Victus 15 also finally gets a second SSD slot for storage expansion; a feature exclusive to the bigger Victus 16 in the years prior.

Since there’s no mention of any changes to the chassis or thermals, we reckon the Victus 15 (2025) will be made out of a similar plastic body to its predecessors. The design also looks pretty much identical to the Victus 15 (2024) but now there’s a new “Powder Pink” option alongside the classic “Performance Blue” and “Mica Silver” colorways.

Connectivity and Extras

In terms of connectivity, you get pretty much the same ports: a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port (with 100W PD support), two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, an RJ45, an HDMI, and a headphone microphone jack. There’s WiFi 6 or 6E depending on the variant and there are a total of 2 SO-DIMM and 2 M.2 slots now. RAM and Storage options are also diverse with HP offering both DDR4-3200 and DDR5-5600 alongside a 512GB or a 1TB NVME SSD.

Realme P3 5G launched in India with a 6,000 mAh battery!

Realme has introduced its latest smartphone, the Realme P3 5G in India. This model features impressive specs that include a 120Hz AMOLED screen, a 6,000 mAh battery, and an IP69 rating. In this article, we will go over the specifications of the Realme P3 5G and its expected price in Nepal.

Realme P3 5G Overview

Design and Display

The Realme P3 5G caught my attention with its sleek design. It’s got a nice slim profile at 163.15×75.65×7.97 mm and weighs just 194 grams, so it must be comfortable in hand. It ships in three different colors among which the Nebula Pink and Comet Grey offer a clean minimalist look while the Space Silver has a futuristic vibe. The camera module on the back comes with two sensors and an LED flash. But what truly stands out for me is the power button which comes in a striking orange color. It’s such a cool little detail that gives the phone some personality.

Another thing that’s worth mentioning is its IP69 rating which makes the phone dust and water-resistant. It’s not something you usually find on budget phones so Realme has really done some work here. Finally, the in-display fingerprint sensor adds a nice touch of security and convenience. All in all, I’m genuinely impressed with what Realme has packed into this phone.

On the front, it offers a 6.67-inch FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED screen with a punch-hole display. The slim bezels provide an elegant finish. While the Realme P3 Pro 5G has a quad-curved AMOLED display the Realme P3 comes with a flat screen. But being a base variant we can’t really complain, alright. With a peak brightness of 2,000 nits, a 1,500 nits touch sampling rate, and a 92.65% screen-to-body ratio this handset aims to deliver a premium viewing experience.

Performance and Battery

Under the hood, Realme P3 5G is powered by an octa-core Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 SoC which makes the device the first smartphone in India to feature this chipset. This processor has one Cortex A-720 core running at 2.3 GHz, three Cortex A-720 cores at 2.2 GHz, and four Cortex-A520 cores at 1.8 GHz. The use of this chipset is something appreciable point from the company for a budget phone. Additionally, it features a 6050mm² aerospace-grade cooling system that supports 90fps in BGMI. With this feature, your phone won’t heat much even while playing high-end games like PUBG and Freefire. So if you are someone who’s looking for a good gaming phone at a decent price, the Realme P3 5G might be the right choice for you.

The Realme P3 5G houses a massive 6,000 mAh Titan battery with 45W fast charging. One of the unique features of this phone is it supports Bypass Charging (the power is supplied directly to the components instead of the battery which prevents the battery from heating up) so, no heating issue again! Additionally, you can choose from three configurations: 6GB/128GB, 8GB/128GB, and 8GB/256 GB. On the software side, it runs on Android 15 with Realme UI 6.0.

Camera and Rest

The camera specs didn’t impress me that well. For photography the Realme P3 5G features a 50MP rear camera with an f/1.8 aperture and a 2MP portrait sensor but the wide camera is missing. On the front, there’s a 16MP selfie camera with an f/2.4 aperture. What’s good about this guy is you can shoot videos at 4k 30fps with stabilization.

In terms of connectivity, the device supports USB Type-C charging and Bluetooth 5.2. Other features include 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11 ax, 2.4GHz + 5GHz), Beidou/GPS/GLONASS/Galileo/QZSS, NFC, and stereo speakers.

Moreover, the Realme P3 5G includes a GT Boost feature for AI enhancements like AI Motion Control and AI Ultra Touch Control. The Antenna Array Matrix 2.0 it comes with promises 30% smoother connectivity in difficult environments, such as subways and underground garages.
