RedMagic 10S Pro series unveiled with Snapdragon 8 Elite

Nubia’s RedMagic lineup just got two powerful new additions — the RedMagic 10S Pro and RedMagic 10S Pro Plus. These gaming-focused smartphones pack the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, a cutting-edge cooling system, a fast AMOLED display, and blazing 165W charging support. In this article, let’s head into the specifications, features, and expected price of the RedMagic 10S Pro and RedMagic 10 Pro Plus in Nepal.

RedMagic 10S Pro and RedMagic 10s Pro+ Overview:

Elite Performance and Hardware

At the heart of the RedMagic 10S Pro is Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, built on a 4nm process. This top-tier processor is well known to push mobile performance to new heights. It is further supported by Nubia’s own Red Core R2 chip, which handles auxiliary gaming tasks like haptic feedback, audio, and RGB lighting independently. As for the memory and storage, the phone comes with up to 16GB of LPDDR5T RAM and up to 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage.

RedMagic 10S Pro Plus Performance

To keep temperatures in check, Nubia has equipped the RedMagic 10S Pro Series with an advanced Liquid Metal Cooling 2.0 system. It features a 10-layer thermal design, including a 3D VC vapor chamber, superconducting copper foil, graphene under the display, and an active cooling fan that spins at 23,000 RPM. This ensures sustained performance even during long gaming sessions. Plus, both phones come with a built-in PC emulator for some extra gaming actions. To complement all this, you get 520Hz gaming shoulder keys.

Gaming Design and Display

In terms of design, the RedMagic 10S Pro series sticks to the gaming phone aesthetics, featuring sharp edges, LED lighting, and a gaming vibe overall. The middle frame with exhaust vents and accented power key looks pretty slick while the rear side is itself enticing for all those gamers out there.

On the front, both phones sport a 6.8-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and 960Hz touch sampling rate. Other key features include 10-bit color depth, DCI-P3 100% coverage, 2000nits peak brightness, and 2160Hz PWM dimming. There’s no notch or punch-hole either — just pure screen. On top of that, these phones come equipped with a self-developed Red Core R3 Pro gaming chip that enables enhanced 2K resolution at 120FPS, supporting both high-resolution rendering and smooth frame synchronization.

Optics

Camera isn’t the main priority here, but Nubia still equips the RedMagic 10S Pro and 10S Pro+ with a 50MP Omnivision primary sensor, along with a 50MP ultra-wide and a 2MP macro lens. On the front, there’s a 16MP under-display selfie camera for a distraction-free experience.

Battery and Extras

The only difference between the Pro and Pro Plus versions lies in the battery and charging section. The former relies on a 7050mAh battery paired with 80W fast charging. On the other hand, the latter houses a bigger 7500mAh battery with faster 120W charging. Likewise, connectivity features remain the same: 5G, WiFi 7 (Tri-band), Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, GPS, 3.5mm audio jack, and USB-Type-C 3.2 Gen 2 port.

0

The Anker Soundcore Space One Pro is now available in Nepal and packs a lot of useful features. Here’s a quick rundown of what it offers, including its official price in Nepal.

Soundcore Space One Overview

Design and Build

Anker Soundcore Space One Pro Design

These headphones have a foldable design that shrinks their size by 50%. The ear cups swivel 180 degrees, and the headband folds up. The headband and ear cups are padded with soft synthetic material and come with a soft carrying bag, but no hard case.

Audio

The Space One Pro has active noise cancellation (ANC) that you can adjust through the Soundcore app, with intensity settings from 1 to 5. There’s also Transparency Mode that lets you hear outside sounds, which you can also tweak in the app. The physical controls let you play/pause music, adjust volume, toggle ANC, and manage calls. The Space One Pro has a bass-heavy sound, but you can adjust it with the app’s 8-band EQ or 23 preset options to suit your taste.

Connectivity and Battery

These headphones support Bluetooth 5.3, and they can connect to two devices at once. They also support SBC, AAC, and LDAC codecs (the last one is for Android users). You can use the 3.5mm audio cable for wired listening, and ANC and Transparency modes still work in wired mode.

As for battery life, they last up to 60 hours without ANC, or 40 hours with it on. Plus, just 5 minutes of charging gives you 5 hours of playback.

Additional Features

There’s no official IP rating, so don’t expect it to be water or sweat-resistant. You can activate your voice assistant through the power button. The Soundcore app also lets you customize ANC, Transparency Mode, and EQ.

Vivo V50 Lite 5G launched in Nepal with Dimensity 6300 SoC

Vivo launched the Vivo V50 Lite 5G in Nepal alongside the 4G iteration. This phone comes with a MediaTek 6300 chipset, unlike the Snapdragon 685 in the 4G model. In this article, we will discuss the Vivo V50 Lite 5G, including its specifications and official price in Nepal.

Vivo V50 Lite 5G Overview

Design and Display

The design of the Vivo V50 Lite 5G remains identical to the 4G model with a flat-edged design, a matte finish on the back, and a pill-shaped camera island. Upfront, it features a 6.7-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, offering a resolution of 1080+ and a peak brightness of up to 1,800 nits. For security, the device includes an optical fingerprint sensor beneath the screen.

The phone is IP65 rated, which means it’s dust-tight and can withstand weak water jets. Additionally, Vivo provides a custom protective case that uses air-cushion technology to safeguard the screen from drops and tumbles. The Vivo V50 Lite 5G comes in Titanium Gold, Phantom Black (with a purple tint), Fancy Purple, and Silk Green color options.

Performance and Battery

Under the hood, the Vivo V50 Lite 5G is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset, featuring 2 Cortex A76 cores and 6 Cortex A55 cores. For graphics, it has a Mali-G57 MP2 GPU. This combination should handle everyday tasks smoothly and even offer decent performance for gaming. Moreover, the phone comes with either 8GB or 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM, along with 256GB or 512GB of UFS 2.2 storage. However, there is no microSD slot for additional storage. On the software end, you will get Android 15.

As for the battery, the device boasts a large 6,500mAh battery, which Vivo claims will retain at least 80% of its capacity even after 5 years of usage. A full charge provides up to 10.5 hours of gaming, which is something impressive for a device with such a large battery.

Camera and Other Features

The Vivo V50 Lite 5G features a 50MP Sony IMX8882 main sensor, accompanied by an 8MP ultra-wide camera. Notably, the ultra-wide camera was absent in the 4G model. There’s also a 2MP helper camera alongside the main sensor. For selfies, the phone is equipped with a 32MP front camera, which is the same as the 4G version.
