Fitbit Charge 4 fitness tracker unveiled with integrated GPS functionality

As people are becoming more conscious about their health and fitness, wearables such as fitness band and smartwatch are getting more popular than ever. These smart gadgets help people to reflect on their lifestyle, allowing them to make necessary changes for an active life. When we talk about fitness and wearables, Fitbit ranks above all. It has been so good in the wearable market that Google couldn’t resist acquiring it. While the $2.1 billion deal is yet to be finalized, Fitbit has released Fitbit Charge 4, which comes with a built-in GPS and some other upgrades compared to its predecessor. Let’s look at the specs, launch date, and expected price in Nepal of the Fitbit Charge 4.

Fitbit Charge 4 Overview

Design and Display

Design-wise, there is no significant difference between Fitbit Charge 4 and its predecessor. Both Charge 4 and Charge 3 bear the same design, but the former is a little larger. It weighs around 30g and has a maximum thickness of 12.5mm. We don’t see any physical button emerging from the side as the Charge 4 comes with pressure-sensitive buttons instead. It features a grey-scale OLED display with a diagonal length of an inch. With a new intelligent feature, the brand even claims that you can wake the display by simply raising it

Features

The highlight of Charge 4 is its GPS functionality. Now, you will be able to access locations, even without having to rely on your smartphone’s hardware. It is a handy feature if you love riding, hiking, or even running. The next prominent feature is the Active Zone Minutes that keeps track of the time you spend in different heart-rate zones during workouts. You will also be able to control Spotify using the band. Other features included are 24/7 heart monitoring, sleep monitoring, automatic exercise tracking using SmartTrack, and all-day activities tracking. Subscribe to Fitbit Premium, and you will have access to more extensive features.

Battery and Others

Like its predecessor, Fitbit Charge 4 also boasts a battery life of up to 7 days. But you can have a different experience depending upon the feature you use and how often you use them. For instance, if you use the GPS, the battery life will drop to just 5 hours. It comes with NFC support that you can utilize using the Fitbit Pay. You can even check notifications and send quick replies on your Android using the Charge 4. With the 5ATM rating, the band will withstand water damage of up to 100m.

Corsair Cooling Fans Price in Nepal

Though cases come with fans, people still prefer third party fans. There are a lot of things to consider when choosing a CPU fan. There are fans with size ranging from 80mm to up to 200mm. A larger fan pushes more air out than smaller ones while running at the same RPM. Look for fans with a lower sound level if you don’t want the noise of your fan to distract you while gaming. The fan should also be compatible with your system. CFM (Cubic Feet per Meter) determines the volume of the air the fan can move in a minute. You will also have to decide between Static Pressure and Airflow. The latter is ideal when nothing is blocking the fan, but when objects like radiators are blocking the fan; you will need the extra power of static pressure fan.

Corsair Liquid Coolers Price in Nepal

If you are looking to build a gaming PC, chances are you will be looking for an excellent cooling system. Stock Air coolers aren’t horrible, but if you are thinking of overclocking your system, chances are they won’t be enough. Liquid cooling systems may be expensive, but those are the ones you need if you are serious about gaming. They are quite and easier to integrate but require regular maintenance to avoid any kind of leakage. There are a lot of elements to consider while buying a cooler for your computer. The TDP of the cooler should at least match the TDP of your processor. The cooler should also be compatible with your CPU, and the radiator should be small enough to fit inside your case.

Power Supply Unit is what provides power to your whole setup. Before you go out in the market looking for a PSU, you need to calculate how much power your system will actually use. Several online power supply calculators can tell you that once you have entered your components. You will need to choose a PSU that at least meets the power requirement of your system. A higher rated PSU can leave room for some future upgrade; however, if you go for overboard on this, it might have a severe impact on your electricity bill. But its not just about wattage – your needs to be efficient as well. Check if your PSU comes with an 80 Plus rating. It is a certification that categorizes PSU from 80 Plus to 80 Plus Titanium according to their efficiency.

Corsair offers PSU under different series. The VS and CX series provide a balance between price and quality. The RMX and TMX series are quieter and have better efficiency.

Corsair Gaming Headphones Price in Nepal [Updated 2020]

Is your Kill to Death ratio on a decline because you can’t figure out the direction of your enemy based on their footsteps? If yes, you are not alone, and it’s time that you invest in a proper gaming headset. Many of us don’t even realize how much of a positive impact a good gaming headphone (or headset) can have on your gaming performance. In this post, we are listing some of the best Corsair gaming headphones (headsets), along with their specs and price, that you can buy in Nepal.

Corsair is a brand that manufactures and sells gaming peripherals and hardware. It started as a RAM manufacturer back in 1994, and it is now one of the most recognized gaming accessories brands in the world. Their portfolio includes mechanical keyboards, gaming mouse/mice, gaming headsets, and gaming chairs. On top of those, their selection of PC components is even more significant. For instance, they sell high-performance RAM, Power supplies, liquid coolers, FANs, storage to custom coolers.

How to decide on a good Gaming Headphone (Headset)?

Several times headphones and headsets are used interchangeably, but they do have differences. Headphones are designed for the best sound quality, and they usually don’t come with any mic. Most of the time, a headset with some gaming features will do just right. You also need to choose between wired and wireless connectivity. The former restricts your body movements while the latter comes with a heftier price tag and may suffer from battery and latency issues. You will also want to look for features such as surround sound or 3D sound; both try to provide realistic sound, but the latter uses more advanced technology and thus is found on only premium models. Check the quality of the mic and see if it can be retracted or detached as well.

However, the most important aspects of any headphone or headset are the design, build, and feel. A headphone with an arc made up of metal or wireframe is better than that made up of plastic. It shouldn’t bother you with its weight. The earcups should be able to cover your entire ear for better sound isolation. It should be soft yet durable.

Corsair Gaming Keyboards Price in Nepal [Updated 2020]

For anyone who is looking to build a new gaming PC or upgrade their existing one, the struggle of finding authentic PC component and gaming accessories are real. There are only a handful of brands dedicated to the gaming industry that are officially available in Nepal. One such brand is Corsair, which entered the Nepali market last year and now has a wide range of products to offer to the still-growing Nepali gaming scenario. Today, we will be looking at some of the best Corsair gaming keyboards that you can buy in Nepal, along with their features, specs, and price.

Corsair is a brand that manufactures and sells gaming peripherals and hardware. It started as a RAM manufacturer back in 1994, and it is now one of the most recognized gaming accessories brands in the world. Their portfolio includes mechanical keyboards, gaming mouse/mice, gaming headsets, and gaming chairs. On top of those, their selection of PC components is even more significant. For instance, they sell high-performance RAM, Power supplies, liquid coolers, FANs, storage to custom coolers.

Choosing a Gaming Keyboard

No matter which game you prefer to play, you need a reliable keyboard that lets you control every aspect of the game. The idea of the best gaming keyboard is subjective as all keyboards are made different, and each appeals to different groups of players. The first thing to look at in a keyboard is the key mechanism. Generally, there are two of them – membrane and mechanical. The former uses a pressure-sensitive layer to detect the keystroke while the latter uses spring-based switches. Mechanical keyboards are faster, durable, customizable, and provide better feedback to the users and thus have a more significant reputation in the market. On the other hand, the membrane keyboard is quieter and is easy on the wallet. There are also keyboards with hybrid mechanisms that are popular with laptops and low-profile gaming desktop.

If you are into gaming, a mechanical keyboard is a way to go, but mechanical keyboards differ in switch type. Switches are assigned to different groups (represent by color) with respect to their features such as facility, speed, sound, actuation point, and force. Different brands have come up with their own color scheme; however, the keyboards on this list all follow Cherry MX’s color scheme, which has been the industry standard for decades now. Other things to consider are the size of the keyboard, availability of number pad, media control, and programmable macro keys, n-key rollover, anti-ghosting features, and USB passthrough options.

Corsair Gaming Mouse Price in Nepal [Updated 2020]

For instance, they sell high-performance RAM, Power supplies, liquid coolers, FANs, storage to custom coolers.

Choosing a Gaming Mouse

When it comes to a gaming mouse, people are divided between optical and laser sensors. Laser sensors are more accurate, and expensive, and are thus used by brands in their flagship products. Optical sensors, on the other hand, don’t have lag and are easier on the wallet. The other thing to consider is the DPI. DPI rating indicates how fast the cursor moves on the screen. Are higher DPI better? It all depends on the kind of player using the mouse. If you make shorter mouse movements, you would require a high DPI mouse.

On the other hand, if you make longer drags, a low DPI mouse will be ideal. To sum it up, look for a mouse with customizable DPI over a wide range so that you can customize it for the best performance possible. Besides this, another thing of equal importance is the design and feel of the mouse. Make sure that the mouse suits your gripping style and is light enough to drag and move around. If you are going for a wireless mouse, you will also have to take the battery and latency into consideration. Other things to consider are polling rate, acceleration, and lift-off distance. A higher polling rate means faster communication between the mouse and the system. Also, we recommend you to go with a mouse with a low lift-off distance and without acceleration.

Corsair Gaming Mouse

Corsair mice are designed with a particular genre of games in Mind. You will find that Corsair mice are categorized as FPS, MOBA, and MMO according to the kind of games that they are designed to play.

Samsung Galaxy A71 Review: Premium Midrange Phone Done Right

Samsung Galaxy A71 is the latest premium midrange phone from the Korean giants. Priced just under Rs. 50,000 in Nepal, the Galaxy A71 promises awesome display, camera, and battery life. But, is it a good premium midrange phone to buy in 2020? Let’s find out in our review here.

Samsung Galaxy A71 Specifications

Body: 6.44 x 2.99 x 0.30 inches; 179 gms
Display: 6.7-inches “Infinity-O” Super AMOLED panel
Resolution: Full-HD+ (2400 x 1080 pixels); 20:9 aspect ratio
Chipset: Snapdragon 730; 8nm Mobile Platform

Audio: 3.5mm headphone jack
Connectivity: Dual-SIM (Nano), MicroSD card, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS/AGPS/GLONASS/Galileo/BDS, USB Type-C
Battery: 4500 mAh with 25W Quick Charge

DESIGN:

Design-wise, the most apparent change from its predecessor is the camera module and an addition of a macro lens. We also have this patterned gradient back that looks lovely.

But don’t be mistaken by the looks, because it seems like a glass back but in reality, the rear panel and frames are plastic. And during my time with the phone, the back surprisingly hasn’t developed any scratches, though I would strongly suggest you don’t take chances and case it up!

Another reason for using a case is for the camera bump that creates an imbalance when placing on a flat surface. But keeping those things aside, I absolutely adore this design choice from Samsung. I love how slim and ergonomic it is despite having a 4,500 mAh battery inside.

PERFORMANCE

Let’s talk performance, and one thing about Samsung’s mid-range phones we absolutely hate is their generosity in providing great chipset. And Although the Snapdragon 730 chipset that this phone has, is somewhat a decent choice but cmon its 2020, and you get cheaper phones these days with SD 730 or 730G.

So maybe Samsung could have gone with their in-house Exynos 9820 that was used on its last year’s Galaxy S10 flagship. Nevertheless, real-life usage is ‘good’ with the 6GB RAM it has. I have zero complaints in that matter, whether it be for normal tasks or rigorous multitasking.

For the hard-core gamers out there, yes, you are going to face a few stutters here and there while pushing the phone to its limits with high-end games. But let me assure you, it’s really only a few stutters and nothing more. Even after some continuous PUBG and COD sessions, I didn’t feel the device break down or heat up, so that’s impressive!

Samsung One UI:

With Samsung’s mid-range phones, it’s usually the slow UI that made us overlook even the good things about those phones. But with the A71, I’ve had quite a good experience.Unlike what you would typically expect on a Samsung midrange phone, the UI on the A71 is very swift. Working around the phone is smooth and I never felt even an s- of stutter while using it.

Also, this might be a minor thing, but I am fond of the icons here too which are subtle and not that flashy. Having said that, the One UI 2.0 is not as polished as, say, the Galaxy S20 that I recently reviewed. But for a mid-range device, the things you get in here is actually good.

DISPLAY

Playing games has been pleasing in this big AMOLED display. Sadly, the A71 does not support a higher refresh rate. Therefore, I’m shying away from calling its display the best in its range. Well, we cannot rule out the fact that a 120Hz display is all the rage right now, can we?

Even so, quality-wise, it’s hard not to admire this screen. The ever so tiny notch up top is non-intrusive and looks very nice actually. At a time when smartphone brands are either going for traditional notches or those god-awful dual punch holes, this one is a good-looking implementation in comparison!

The indoor brightness is more than enough and even outdoors in bright sunny days, you won’t be disappointed. The device is Widevine L1 certified but for unknown reasons, is not HDR10 compatible. And Samsung is still using the older Gorilla Glass 3 protection here. So, make sure you install a good screen protector. I, on the other hand, haven’t used any tempered glass on the unit I have and there are already few evident scratches.

Likewise, because of the price restriction, the display doesn’t have those fancy curves. But the bezels are minimal and the display has an impressive 20:9 aspect ratio! So, display-wise, things look great here, although I hope the next iteration comes with a higher refresh rate display!

But since it’s the signature AMOLED panel from Samsung, you get perks like having an Always-On Display that you can customize to show whenever you want. There’s also an in-display fingerprint sensor which I’ll talk about later.

BATTERY

And about the battery, I have to say that it’s very enduring. For the heavy users out there, this phone is the way to go.

It gets you through a couple of hours of gaming, a lot of social media & YouTube and some photography with a little juice left at the end of the day. Plus, it’s a 60 Hz screen so there won’t be excessive drainage too. In very basic usage, it will get you through a day and a half of battery life, so that’s pretty cool.

Also, it fills in very fast as well. The 25-watt charger you get inside the box fills the battery in slightly over one hour and ten minutes. The faster charging is also the result of the Type-C to Type-C power delivery mechanism the phone employs. This might be something unique in a device of this price range, but if your laptop does not have a USB C port, data sharing might be some trouble for you. You will need an extra USB cable or a dongle.

CAMERA

Samsung’s mid-range devices never disappoint when it comes to camera performance and it really shows here.

The Galaxy A71 has a quad camera setup with a 64MP primary lens, followed by a 12MP ultra-wide-angle lens, a 5MP depth sensor, and an additional 5MP macro lens. And although the A71 here uses the same 64MP Samsung GW1 sensor like the Realme X2 and the Redmi Note 8 Pro, Samsung’s optimization is better if you nitpick aspects like details, color reproduction and sometimes HDR too!

Normal

1 of 4

The primary pixel binned 16MP images from the A71 are very rich in colors. Although some might think that they are a bit on the saturated side, I think it looks pleasing, to be honest. The details captured look fine and HDR works considerably well. The best images from the A71 are mostly reflected in natural elements like flowers and landscapes because Samsung’s optimization works best here.

1 of 4

The Ultra-Wide-angle sensor is also another impressive thing about the A71. Mostly, you get a standard 8MP sensor in midrange phones, but Samsung has gone a step further with a 12MP one, so you are getting more details. And not only that, the HDR works well too and the colors are as good as the primary lens.

The portrait shots also do not disappoint. The subject focus is on point and the background is definitely nice too. The edge detection isn’t as good as say the flagship one’s but overall, you will like them most of the times.

Portrait

1 of 4

Speaking of disappointment, it has to be the macro lens here. Not only you cannot focus on the images while taking it, the captured images produced, most of the times, are not very appealing in terms of quality. Maybe with the best possible lighting, you can get a few good enough shots & that’s about it.

Now talking about the 32MP selfie camera, it is very very good. Selfies usually have a good color tone and look good overall. Unlike Realme X2’s, this one has good HDR capabilities. So, even if I clicked selfies during sunny days, I got good looking pictures. Portrait selfies are not the best as its software at work but not anything to complain about either.

Selfie & Portrait Selfie

1 of 8

For the Tiktok users, this selfie camera even has a slow-mo video feature with which you can add a little flair to your videos. And even for others, you can definitely have some fun with this feature.

Talking of videos, quality-wise, they look good. You can crank the resolution up to 4K, but all the resolutions only support up to 30 fps, which, I think works for an average person, but for me, I think Samsung should have given a 60-fps option at least in FHD resolution. Also, talking of stabilization, 4k videos come out wobbly but 1080p videos have good stabilization.

While I have liked the images from the back camera, night time images are nothing out of the ordinary. So, most of the time I used the night mode which improves the exposure and details in images. It does crop the picture a little bit, which I don’t understand why. You can click wide-angle images from the night mode as well, which balances the exposure a little bit. But the normal night time wide-angle-images are not so impressive by themselves, as it is just a slight improvement and nothing else.

Nighttime

1 of 2

So, Overall, in terms of the camera, the only aspect where the Galaxy A71 left me wanting for more is the 60fps videos. Skip that and the rest are fine by my standards. I particularly liked the ultra-wide-angle shots, which I personally think more and more brands on their midrange lineup should focus on.

BIOMETRICS

But something that I have always wanted Samsung to improve on is their slow in-display fingerprint sensors. Although its slightly faster than last gen Galaxy A70, but its still slow when you speed-test against its Chinese counterparts. So, yes, I think Samsung needs to work on it a little bit. Another biometric option, the face unlock is fast and unlocks the phone before the fingerprint sensor does, all the time!

AUDIO

The single firing speaker is also good, not the flagship stereo speaker level, but I would rate it, like B+. But one thing to note here is the sound gets blocked mostly when you play games and watch videos in landscape. So, I‘ve had to frequently adjust how I held the phone, which has been some trouble for me.

VERDICT

So, to sum it up, like I said in the beginning of this video, I’ve had a very good experience with the Galaxy A71. However, what makes for a good experience in my case, might not be the same for everyone else. For instance, phones like the Realme X2 Pro or the Oneplus 7 definitely have better performance when compared to the A71, so if your priority is gaming, you are better off with those options.

But, if you are looking for a smartphone, that does every bit for you, the A71 is one of the most viable choices available. And here in Nepal, since the Realme X2 Pro hasn’t launched yet, I think the Galaxy A71 is a very good choice for some 50,000 rupees.

Best mobile phones under INR. 20000 in India

The 20,000 price segment is one of the most competitive in India. With a large cluster of choices, it is often difficult for people to choose the best option. With that in mind, in this article, we will be learning about the best smartphone that you can get for 20,000 ($250) Indian Rupees. These are the best value for money smartphones for that price range.

Summary list of best mobile phones under 20,000 in India

S.N.	Best phones under 20,000 in India	Price
1.	Realme 6 Pro	INR 17,999 (6GB+ 64GB) INR 18,999 (6GB+ 128 GB) INR 19,999 (8GB+128GB)
2.	Poco X2	INR 16,999 (6GB+ 64GB) INR 18,499 (6GB+ 128GB)
3.	Realme X2	INR 19,999 (6GB+ 128GB) INR 17,999 (4GB+64GB)
4.	Samsung Galaxy M31	INR 16,999 (6GB+ 128GB) INR 15,999 (6GB+ 64GB)
5.	Redmi Note 9 Pro Max	INR 16,999 (6GB+128GB)
6.	Samsung Galaxy A50s	INR 18,570 (4GB+128GB)

Samsung Galaxy A50s

If you remember, the Galaxy A50s was initially launched for a high price, but now it goes for below 20K in India. One thing that differentiates it from the rest of the bunch is the design. At a time when all the Chinese brands are heavy and boxy, Samsung, on the other hand, is making their designs slimmer and more ergonomic with every new launch.

Anyway, coming back to the design of the A50s, you get this absolutely stunning looking phone. The glasstic back has these really cool looking patterns which make the phone look classy and stylish. Plus, the phone is very ergonomic and feels light on the hands which further adds to the niceties.

What’s also nice is the front of the A50s, it’s got a pleasing Super AMOLED display which is one of the best panels you can get for the price. Additionally, the AMOLED display complements the dark theme of the UI very well. So, if you are someone who likes the dark mode, you will love what you see on the A50s. Further, the display is home to an in-display fingerprint sensor.

The triple cameras on it have very good performance too which is all thanks to Samsung’s excellent optimization. The details, HDR, saturation all have a good balance in normal as well as the ultra-wide shots as evident from these samples here.

Samsung has also provided the One UI 2.0 based on Android 10 last month. But what I do need to tell you is that performance over here is just average. The dated 10 nm based Exynos 9611 does not quite match up to the contemporaries like Snapdragon 720G or 730G or the Helio G90T. For an average user though, it should still serve you well.

Redmi Note 9 Pro max:

The Redmi Note 9 pro and Redmi Note 9 Pro Max are the two recent additions to Xiaomi’s lineup. And both are basically the same phone, except for some minor changes here and there. So, if you want to save some money, get the Pro version instead.

Also, maybe Xiaomi could have done some more differentiation with the specs between the two. For instance, they could have provided a Super AMOLED display or a higher refresh rate to make the Pro Max version stand out a little bit.

But even so, the Redmi Note 9 pro max is one of the good mid-range phones in today’s date. It offers some good things to the table like the latest Snapdragon 720G chipset which performs very well, a big 5020 mAh battery with 30-watt fast charging support, and a refreshing new look.

Similarly, Camera-wise, you get very good performance with the 64MP Samsung GW1 sensor that you get here. The details are on point and colors as well as dynamic range are very well preserved too. Overall, the Note 9 pro max is one worthy phone in this list!

Samsung Galaxy M31:

If you are a Samsung fan and the Galaxy A50s or the newly launched Galaxy A51 is a little too expensive for your budget, the Galaxy M31 is a great alternative.

It is almost the same as the A50s minus the good looks plus a bigger battery. While you get a standard 4,000 mAh cell on the A50s, the M31 offers you a humongous 6,000 mAh one that can go on and on. However, note that it only has a 15- watt fast charging support so charging the phone can be a bit of a pain.

Additionally, the design of it is not very appealing either. You get a thick phone with a glossy polycarbonate back that looks rather outdated.

Keeping these things aside, you can be assured that you get a good camera setup in the M31. Well, Samsung never fails to make a mark with their cameras! There’s a quad-camera setup tucked inside a square module, all of which have impressive performance, except for the macro lens which is just average.

However, in regards to performance, you have the same old Samsung saga of average chipsets powering their phones. It is powered by the same Exynos 9611 that’s there on the M21, A50s, and countless other Galaxy devices.

Although I am not saying that its performance is bad, when compared to the likes of Helio G90T or the Snapdragon 720G, you are certainly getting a strictly average performance. On the brighter side though, you get the One UI 2.0 here which you guys know how much I prefer over others.

Samsung Galaxy M31 Specifications:

Body: 6.26 x 2.96 x 0.35 inches; 191 gm
Display: 6.4-inches Super AMOLED panel
Resolution: FHD+ (2340 x 1080 pixels); 19.5:9 aspect ratio

Realme X2:

Realme has brought out a lot of good midrange phones since last year and one of the most notable ones has to be the Realme X2.

Powered by the Snapdragon 730G chipset, this phone gives you one of the best performances in this price range. And except for the Samsung phones, this is the only phone that offers an AMOLED display at this price, so that’s a major plus for it. Talking about the quality of the display, it’s excellent in terms of colors, contrast, and also has acceptable brightness levels. Also, having the AMOLED screen means you get the perks of an in-display fingerprint sensor, which is fast and accurate.

Furthermore, the design of the Realme X2 also looks good to me. Although I would say that I am inclined towards the A50s’ more ergonomic and lightweight design, this one has its own thing going and I am sure many prefer it too. Plus, the back is protected by the Gorilla Glass 5 which makes it more premium than plastic back phones.

The Quad- cameras on it have good performance too. Although the macro and depth sensors are more gimmicky than useful, the other two, the primary and the wide-angle lenses work well. And it’s worth pointing out that Realme X2 is one of the best points to shoot cameras out there for this price.

And one more thing that’s good about the X2 is that Realme has generously provided a 30- watt VOOC fast charging support that can fill the 4,000 mAh battery in around an hour.

Realme X2 Specifications & Price

Display: 6.4″ Super AMOLED display
Resolution: 1080 x 2340pixels
Rear Camera: Quad, 64 MP primary lens with f/1.7 aperture + 8 MP Ultra-wide-angle lens with f/2.3 aperture + 2 MP dedicated macro with f/2.4 aperture + 2 MP depth sensor with f/2.4 aperture

Storage: 64/128GB
Battery: 4000 mAh, 30W Fast Charging
Sensors: Fingerprint (in-display), accelerometer, gyro, compass, proximity
Connectivity: Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, Wi-Fi Direct, hotspot
Color Options: Pearl White, Pearl Blue, Pearl Green

Poco X2:

Okay, now we have reached almost to the end of our list, and choosing the first and second place has been a tough choice. However, there has to be a winner and evidently it is not the Poco X2. It has secured second place by just a thin line of difference.

Talking of the performance, the Poco X2 is also powered by the Snapdragon 730G chipset and you can expect it to perform as well as the Realme X2. Similarly, you get a glass design in here that looks quite good. Although the phone is hefty and slightly unergonomic, many people liked it so, it will be fair to say that it totally depends upon your preference.

Coming to the front, you are getting a good- quality IPS LCD screen with good colors and contrast levels. Yes, it’s not an AMOLED panel, but it has a 120Hz refresh rate that gives it an edge. So, when it comes to gaming, it will give you a little bit of extra smooth performance than the Realme X2, which is also one of the reasons why it is a step ahead than the Realme X2 on this list.

Furthermore, camera- wise, here you get a quad-camera setup like many others in this list. However, Poco uses a much superior Sony IMX 686 primary sensor that offers better details and HDR capability. However, color optimization looks better on the Realme X2. So, choosing one among them is actually a tough call.

In terms of battery- life, the 120Hz screen does devour the battery comparatively faster than the regular 60Hz. However, that is recovered by the big 4500mAh battery along with 27-watt fast charging support that fills its battery in about 70 minutes.

POCO X2 Specifications

Body: 6.51 x 3.02 x 0.35 inches; 208 gm; P2i coating
Display: 6.67-inches “RealityFlow” IPS LCD panel with HDR10 support; 386 PPI and up to 500 nits of brightness

Battery: 4500 mAh with 27W fast charging
Colors: Atlantis Blue, Matrix Purple, Phoenix Red

Realme 6 Pro:

Okay, finally we have reached the top of this list. As evident from our tests, he Realme 6 Pro offers the best value for money under 250 dollars. However, it is worth mentioning that the choice totally depends on the user as well.

If one feels more comfortable with the MIUI, then, one should definitely go for the Poco X2, otherwise Realme 6 Pro is an equally good option. But the reasons to give the 6 Pro the top spot is, number 1: It has a more versatile camera setup consisting of a telephoto zoom lens and number 2: The selfies here are much better than the Poco X2. Also, its dual notch comes with a more useful ultra-wide selfie camera, instead of the depth sensor.

The other specs of the Realme 6 Pro are pretty decent too. You get a good-quality IPS panel with a 90Hz refresh rate. The Snapdragon 720G here performs as well as what the Poco X2 offers. And Battery- wise you get a good-sized 4,300 mAh cell that gives excellent endurance which further is supported by the 30- watt VOOC charging!

Will Pi Coin be the next big thing in the world of cryptocurrency?

Will Pi Coin be the next big thing in the world of cryptocurrency?

Money has continuously evolved and changed its form. Today, digital currencies are what suits the requirements of the digital world. Digital currencies focus on decentralizing the currency to make the privacy-oriented transactions. Cryptocurrency is a digital currency that can be used to transfer assets from person to person in a decentralized way. They are not regulated by any banks or any other central authorities. These coins are all digital and have no physical presence. Cryptocurrencies can be bought from exchanges and stored in wallets, exchange wallets, or hardware storage disk. They are also distributed across the whole network, so even if one part fails no data is lost. And interestingly, Pi coin is the first & only cryptocurrency that you can mine on your phone.

Pi Coin & Pi Network

“Pi Network” is a smart platform that allows users to earn Pi cryptocurrency from any mobile device. Beta version of the app was launched in March 2019 by three individuals from Stanford. And two of them hold PhDs. They aim to create a secure, immutable, non-counterfeit and interoperable source of digital money. They are going to do this by using distributed ledger technology and making use of the stellar consensus protocol.

Download Pi Network App: Android | iOS

Pi Network is secured and operated by its community, i.e. its users and their joint engagement. Pi is mined through proof of consensus, which is basically where your phone communicates with a bunch of nodes, and the nodes collectively decide on what the solution to the next block is. Whereas in Bitcoin, the solution is already set and whoever gets it first gets the reward.

How to “mine” Pi Coin?

There are simple steps to connect to a Pi network and start mining the cryptocurrency – Pi Coin. First, you download their app and specify the registration method: Facebook or phone number. You will also be required to fill in an invitation code to join the network as it relies on secure circles. Each user receives one “Pi” per account upon registration. To mine, you just have to open the app and click on the ‘mine’ button every 24-hours to prove that you are a credible contributor to the network. The app doesn’t need to run in the background, so you can close it and open it after 24-hours and click on the button to mine. There is currently no way to invest in shares but more options will hopefully become available as the app gains more popularity. The mining for Pi Network is done a four-tier basis:

Pioneer

Someone who uses the mobile app to interact with the network daily. They do this by signing in to verify their identity and requesting transactions that can be sent or receive Pi over the Pi network. It is the entry-level rank for all users. Initially, it’s production size is 0.39 pi/h, which you can increase to 0.49 pi/h by participating in the referral program during registration.

Contributor

Someone who adds other people to their network within Pi. This information then goes together to create a shared trust graph. You need to mine cryptocurrency for three days to receive this rank.

Ambassador

Somebody who recruits other individuals to come over and join Pi network whether they are pioneers, contributors, or ambassadors. The ambassador and the referee will receive a 25% referral bonus for signing up to the network. This rank is for the users who invite other members to connect to the Pi Network.

Node

Someone who is physically running a node on a desktop or laptop and will maintain the distributed ledger. This is for members who have connected additional equipment to the network. It is still under development.

It is possible to be all four of these tiers of mining and receive contributions based on all four of them.

This app doesn’t drain your battery or use your RAM in the background. This is because it doesn’t rely on proof of work. Instead, it relies on the number of users you have in your secure circles. And the more your mining rate is, the more Pi coin you get. To withdraw coins (once that becomes an option), your device needs to be verified. And if you’re not from the US or Canada, this will entail sending a text to the UK or US number, which may subject to certain rates and restrictions in your jurisdiction. Creators have published the whitepaper of the project on their site which gives you some more detailed information on how it all works so you can examine for yourself if you want to give it a shot or not.

How is it different from other cryptocurrency?

Some of the key differences between Pi Network and other blockchains are the fact that rewards are paid out daily. They are not paid out per block, and they are also spread across the entire network so as long as you interact with the network, you will receive a payout at the end of the day. The white paper discusses the availability of free transactions depending on network congestion. Once the network becomes heavily congested, then miners will be able to sort through transactions based on a fee system with higher fees being dealt with first and everybody else having to wait based on the amount of fee they want to pay.

At present, there is no fixed supply and the total supply is unknown. Once the project officially launches, the total supply will be worked out. The tokens that people are earning right now are acting as a faucet and are a visual representation of tokens that will be created in the Genesis block when the main net launches.

Pi network is rapidly expanding and as of right now it has more than 800k engaged users. It could be the next big thing for all we know. It is free to join so no one stands anything to lose by downloading the app. But it is highly recommended to do your research before you decide to delve further. You can also find the Pi network on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter for more information.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro in Nepal: Best Midrange Phones of 2020?

Despite being more than 6 months old, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro is still one of the best midrange phones at its price range in Nepal. I think it still takes the crown of the best phone under a price of Rs. 30,000. Let’s learn more about the phone down below.

Redmi Note 8 Pro: Best Phone under 30K in Nepal?

Moving on, the other midrange phone to look out is the Redmi Note 8 Pro. It comes as a direct successor of the Note 7 Pro and is one of the most hyped Xiaomi devices in recent dates. Though the device will launch with the MIUI 10 in the beginning, users should expect the recently launched MIUI 11 as of reading this article.

The Redmi Note 8 Pro has a bigger 6.53-inch display as compared to the Note 8. It has a Full HD+ resolution and an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. It too is protected by the Corning Gorilla Glass 5 on both sides. And similar to the Note 8, it too has a waterdrop notch upfront.

One of the most exciting aspects of this device is that it is the first one to be powered by the MediaTek Helio G90T processor. It is a gaming-centric processor and should allow users to play graphic-intensive games on their devices. Furthermore, the device also comes with liquid cooling technology and Game Turbo 2.0 to complement its gaming capabilities.

Redmi Note 8 Pro Camera: Is it any good?

Talking about the camera, the Redmi Note 8 Pro has a quad-camera setup on the back. However, its primary lens is a 64MP ISOCELL Bright GW1 sensor. Hence, you get better images as compared to the cheaper Redmi Note 8.

The cam setup is completed by an 8MP ultra-wide lens, a 2MP dedicated ultra-macro lens, and a 2MP depth sensor. As for the front camera, a powerful 20MP selfie shooter is housed inside the waterdrop notch.

And that’s not it. The cameras come with an array of features too. For instance, it supports 64MP HD, Ultra nightscape mode, Smart Ultra-Wide Angle to name a few. Furthermore, the front camera too supports features such as Panorama selfie, AI scene detection, Palm shutter and many more.

It too will be available in two RAM variants with the base variant being 6GB and the other of 8GB. The storage on board will be either 64GB or 128GB on the 6GB variant and 128GB for the 8GB variant. Furthermore, there is a dedicated microSD slot available for those who want to upgrade their internal storage.

Moreover, for its daily tasks, the device will rely on a huge 4,500mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging. And similar to the Redmi Note 8, the fast charger will be bundled along with the retail box.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro Price in Nepal [Updated]

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro is still available in Nepal. The official price of Redmi Note 8 Pro for the base 6/64GB version in Nepal is Rs. 26,999. You can also get the 6/128GB variant for a price of Rs. 29,999 if higher storage is your priority. Similarly, the 8GB variant with 128GB storage costs Rs. 32,999.

As for value, I think you should buy the 6/128GB variant. For me, 64GB is not ample in 2020, and 8GB is just overkill.
