Intel announces 10th Gen Comet Lake CPUs: Fixed the worst thing about thin laptops

Intel has released quite a few things in the past couple of weeks. The new models from the 10^th Gen Core CPU lineup come first in that context. And now, it has announced chips in the new Comet lake family. Though it is based on a different architecture, the targeted segment is the same. The previously announced chips based on Intel’s Ice lake architecture will be the first 10nm process chips to be mass-marketed from the company.

However, these newly announced Comet Lake chips will use quite antiquated 14nm process. Both the CPU’s will be sold as the 10^th Gen Intel Core U-series and Y-series models. Furthermore, the chips are aimed at the thin and light notebook segment.

Both the U-series and Y- series have 4 Comet Lake models. 15W nominal TDP for the U-series and 17W nominal TDP for the Y-series is claimed by the company. However, OEMs have the option to configure them as per requirements. The U-series models can be configured up to 25 W. Whereas the models in the Y-series can be configured between 4.5W-9W considering the thermal environment.

Vivo launches iQOO Pro: Can it usurp the existing players?

Gaming smartphones are very much on the rise. With the spending on mobile gaming being at least 2.3 times lower than that of the spending on a gaming PC, it’s an obvious rise. The ROG Phone series and the Black Shark dominate this segment. However, Vivo is not far behind either. iQOO, Vivo’s gaming-focused brand, just today released a new smartphone.

Overview:

Labeled as Vivo iQOO Pro, the device comes in two variants. One supports 4G connectivity whereas the other one comes with 5G support. However, other than the network connectivity, both the devices are almost identical. They have a 6.41” Super AMOLED screen with resolution 1080 x 2340 pixels. And as it is with devices with an AMOLED screen, the device supports an in-display fingerprint.

As for the processor, the device runs on Snapdragon 855+ chipset. The processor has 4 x Kryo 485 Silver cores operating at 1.8GHz, 3 x Kryo 485 Gold operating at 2.42GHz. The third and the final set of the CPU core is 1 x Kryo 485 Gold core operating at 2.84GHz. Furthermore, the chipset integrated the Adreno 640 GPU. The Snapdragon 855+ is probably the best gaming chipset from Qualcomm. And both the variants of the iQOO Pro packs this chipset.

Talking about the camera, it has a 48MP f/1.79 primary rear lens. Additionally, it comes along with a 12MP, f/2.2 ultrawide lens and a 2MP depth sensor. The selfie shooter is a 12MP f/2.0 lens. The battery on this device is a 4,500 mAh battery that supports 44W ultra-fast charging.

Both the version will run on Android 9 Pie with Funtouch 9 on to. He 4G variant of the device will have a base version with RAM 8GB and 128 GB storage. The other one will have 12GB RAM. Prices for the 8GB variant and the 12GB variant are $451 and $493 respectively.

The 5G version, however, will have three versions. A 8GB/128GB available for $536, a 8GB/256GB priced at $564 and a 12/128GB for $578. Both the devices have the same dimension: 158.77 x 75.73 x 9.325mm. Though they differ in weight by 2 grams. The 4G one weighs 215g whereas the 5G version weighs 217g.

As for their availability, the iQOO Pro 4G is available for pre-order in China. Its shipping will start from August 30. However, the 5G model will be available for pre-sell from tonight. Also, its availability will be limited too. It will officially release on September 2. A full list of their specifications can be found below.

With iQOO Pro, Vivo aims to make its mark in the gaming device segment. However, already existing players in this segment will make this one a tough task. Furthermore, ASUS has just recently released its ROG Phone II. So, usurping that will certainly be difficult.

But nothing can be said with certainty right now. The actual evaluation of those devices can only be said after using them. Moreover, their release might also be only China limited. Which further makes the task of evaluating them a lot more difficult.

OPPO Reno 2 Specifications Revealed: Looks like a very good Midranger!

A lot has been said about the OPPO Reno 2 20x zoom. But what about the standard version? It too will launch alongside the 20x zoom variant next week. So, finally, the company has decided to release info about the standard OPPO Reno 2.

The device will be the first one in the industry to be powered by the Snapdragon 730G. The chipset is gaming-focused octa-core chipset. It has 2 x A76 running at 2.2GHz and 6 x A55 running at 1.8GHz. What makes this chipset stand out from its standard version is the overclocked Adreno 618 GPU. This GPU supposedly improves gaming performance by 15%.

Furthermore, the chipset provides anti-cheat extensions and Jank Reducer to reduce in-game stutter. Also, there’s the Wi-Fi latency manager and HDR gaming support. Moreover, OPPO has also included its Frame and touch boost technology to provide better gaming experience to the users.

Upfront the device offers a 6.55” OLED display. And with a speculated 93.1% scree-to-body ratio, we’ll probably get to see a pop-up selfie camera too. The base variant will pack 8GB of RAM and 256GB storage onboard. And to top it all up, the device will be powered by a 4,000mAh battery capable of VOOC 3.0 fast charging.

Till now no information regarding wither the rear or the front camera has been released. However, we probably think that this standard version will have a 48MP + 13 MP + 8MP + 2MP rear camera setup. Moreover, the front camera will probably be a 16MP selfie shooter.

That’s about it regarding the information we have about the OPPO Reno 2 standard version. With the launch date nearing, I am certain that more information will flow in. Nevertheless, with the information that we’ve till now, we can safely say that the device will be a proper upgrade from its predecessor. Though no official word has come out, I do have an expected set of specifications for the device.

Redmi Note 8 Pro to have new design, 64MP camera, and Helio G90T Gaming processor

The buzz surrounding the Redmi Note 8 series is real. And why shouldn’t it be? After all, its predecessor, the Redmi Note 7 series is the undisputed king in the budget segment. However, with the specs that have been pack into the Note 8 series devices, the Note 7 series will probably be dethroned by its own successor.

August 29 is the scheduled launch date for the Note 8 series. And the new Helio G90T will power one of the devices in the series. The Helio G90T is the first gaming processor from MediaTek. The processor supports 90Hz display and a quad-camera setup with a 64MP camera sensor.

Redmi had already announced that it will be releasing a 64MP camera smartphone. Thus, Helio G90T is the perfect fit in order to include the mentioned camera setup. So, probably the Pro version of the Note 8 will get a 64MP main lens.

However, the aforementioned was the information that most of us already had some idea about. The new update about the device that we have received is about one of its color variants and its design. A leaked image of the dark green colored Redmi Note 8 Pro had already surfaced on Weibo. However, we now have a confirmed photo of it that gives us a closer look at the rear design.

From the image that we have, we can see that the device looks similar to the Redmi K20 and K20 Pro. It has curved edges. And the texture also resembles that of the Redi K20. Furthermore, the color appears dark towards the center. And light towards the edges.

The phone has a vertically arranged camera array on the rear. Three of the sensors are arranged vertically and just below them is the fingerprint scanner. On the right side just below the LED flash, is the fourth lens.

And that’s pretty much the information that we got from the images. And as far as Note 8 is concerned, we know that it too will have a quad-camera setup. However, its primary lens is said to be of 48MP only. So, it will probably use the slightly inferior Helio G90 processor. Other details about the devices are still pretty much shrouded in mystery. Hopefully, we’ll get to know a bit more about them before the actual release date.

Arkophone: Exchange your current smartphone for a new one

We all know about the hassle one has to go through in order to exchange their existing smartphone. Going from one store to another trying to get the best possible price for your device is a tedious task. However, with digitization taking over everything, things are already changing. There are various websites available through which you can exchange or sell your current device. These websites decrease the hassle one previously had to go through in order to exchange their phone. One such site that currently allows you to do something similar is arkophone.com

This website currently allows users to exchange Samsung devices only. Using the website is simple too. Just head to the website and click on the “Get Started” button. The rest of the process is then clearly laid out for you. Select the type of device, the series it belongs to. And bam! You have the initial estimate for your current device.

Furthermore, after getting the initial evaluation the site asks you about the condition of the device. Another question that will be asked to you is about the availability of the various accessories and bills that comes with the device. The initial estimate will not increase, however, it might decrease based upon the answers you provide. In the end, you have to enter your contact details, the IMEI number of the phone and you then will receive a token. The token can be used to exchange your device from the specified outlets within one week. Also, there’s the option to place a counteroffer if you are not satisfied with the given initial estimate.

One has to go to the mentioned outlets along with their valid identity and some photographs. There might be those who are not familiar with such sites. Well, they have aptly placed a solution for it. There’s a short clip placed on the homepage that guides one through the process.

Well, this website certainly provides an easy way to exchange and possibly get the best value for your current device. However, they do not mention anywhere how they provide the initial estimate. This might bug some users as they would obviously want to know the basis for the given estimate. The site valued my three months old Samsung A80 at Rs. 43,995. Okay, but on what basis? There’s no explanation to that.

Moreover, when we placed a counteroffer for our Galaxy S10, there was no reply whatsoever from them. No phone calls, no emails. Nothing! Furthermore, currently, users can only exchange certain Samsung devices through the website. It would have been great if multiple device options were available.

The website has a simplistic design and is easy to use. This idea that they are trying to capitalize on is certainly a great one. Easy exchange for mobile devices is not something that has been prevalent in our market. So, what they are trying to do here is great. But they obviously need some improvement. Improved customer service. And a detailed explanation about their initial price estimate should be on their priority list for now. If the company is able to do so and further build on this idea, they undeniably have a huge potential.

Relme XT: world’s first 64MP camera smartphone?

With the launch of Realme 5 and 5 Pro, the company hopes to shake up the entire budget segment. It was launched at an event yesterday. However, it did not end with just the launch of those two. In fact, a teaser of the company’s first 64MP camera was presented in the end.

Labeled as Realme XT, the device is going to be probably going to be the world’s first 64MP camera smartphone. I’ve marked it as probably the world’s first cause other tech giants are also in the running to release their 64MP smartphones. And we do not know when they will launch them. However, the song played after the teaser does give us something to speculate about. “Wake Me Up When September Ends” by Green Day played as the event came to a conclusion. So maybe early October will mark its announcement.

The device will use Samsung’s ISOCELL Bright GW1 sensor. This sensor helps to produce 16MP images in low-light. How you might ask? Well, it is able to do so by merging four pixels into one using the Tetracell technology.

On August 8, Realme introduced the world to the 64MP camera tech at an event. In fact, during the event, the device was also shown. However, a case shrouded the exteriors of the device. And the only thing that the people present there got to witness was the camera technology. The quad-camera setup should probably be similar to the one on the Realme 5 Pro. From what we know the device will also have a wide-angle lens, a macro camera, and a depth sensor. Also made public were the camera samples from the device. And believe me, they look great.

Well, the August 8 event also was mentioned that the camera tech is just the first surprise. And others are yet to be revealed. Till now all we know is the devices name and its rear camera technology. We will probably find out more about the mentioned surprises in the days to come. Until then all we can do is wait for an official announcement or as it is on the internet, wait for leaks!

ENCO Q1: OPPO announces its first noise-cancelling wireless headphones

Last month, OPPO trademarked the OPPO ENCO series. Many speculated that this would probably be a new smartphone lineup from the company. However, OPPO today laid rest to all the speculation surrounding this. Rather than a smartphone lineup, the ENCO series will be OPPO’s first noise-canceling wireless headphones. And OPPO ENCO Q1 is going to be the first device in this series.

The ENCO Q1 has a 3D neckband design. It is thick at the end and thin around the center. It is made from a single piece that is designed to go around your neck. The one-piece design means that it does not have any splits or cuts.

Talking about its noise cancellation system, the headphone will feature Active Noise Cancellation with 4 Mics. So, basically, it will use a hybrid noise cancellation that has both a feedforward and feedback ANC. Among the previously mentioned 4 Mics, two of them will be on the outside. Their task will be to listen to ambient noise and feed that into the system. This is a feedforward process that sends a signal to the speakers by extracting ambient noise.

Furthermore, the headphone has two mics on the inside. They are tasked with listening to noise within your ear. They will help to cancel out noise that could be induced due to the shape inconsistencies of different ears. Additionally, for the acoustical signal reduction, there’s a filter.

The OPPO ENCO Q1 will come in three different colors. Sunshine Orange, Polar Night Black, and Star Silver. However, this the extent of our knowledge regarding the ENCO Q1. Furthermore, the official OPPO website is yet to list the headphones. The announcement today just gave us a sneak-peak about what the ENCO series really is. The launch of this headphone is speculated to be alongside the launch of OPPO Reno 2.

The headset’s price is not yet known. However, I think that it will be one of the premium offerings from the company. High-end headphones and amplifiers were what OPPO previously renowned for. So, I guess with this series the company is trying to head back to its roots. But these are all speculations, isn’t it? We’ll have to wait and see what this device actually has to offer.

Battery capacities revealed for Mate 30 and Mate 30 Pro

There’s been a lot of speculation surrounding the release of Mate 30 and Mate 30 Pro. October usually marks the launch of the new Mate devices. However, this year things are set to take a different turn. The announcement made at the Huawei’s Developer Conference suggested that the Mate 30 series will probably release sometime around September.

Well, whenever the release date may be, the rumors about the device’s specs are already generating a lot of buzz in the tech world. A phone in the new Mate series will also feature Huawei’s new HarmonyOS. The internet of things (IoT) is what this new OS primarily focuses on.

However, the new OS is not the only thing that’s been generating so much buzz around the device. In fact, the batteries on Mate30 and Mate 30 pro too are seemingly on course to break some records. Per reports, the devices will support 25W wireless charging. And in addition to that, they will support 55W wired charging. If this is true, then they both will be the fastest in their respective category. Now that’s two records at once.

So, their charging capacity is great. But what about the actual battery capacity? Mate 30 and Mate 30 Pro’s probable battery has come up on a new report on China’s Weibo. If the post is true, then Mate 30 should have a 4,200mAh battery whereas Mate 30 Pro will have a 4,500mAh battery. However, these are just rumors, so better take them with a pinch of salt.

This rumored battery in the Mate 30 series means that there will be a significant improvement in the battery capacity of the devices. Compared to Mate 20, Mate 30 should ha a 5% increase in capacity. Similarly, Mate 30Pro will have a 7% increase in battery capacity as compared to its predecessor. Furthermore, the devices will probably use the Kirin 990 chipset. They are rumored to be built on a very efficient process. Thus, the should theoretically improve battery life as compared to the previous Mate series.

Motorola One Action unveiled; days numbered for action cams?

Cameras in smartphones are developing at a rapid rate. Dual, triple and now Quad. Who knew that many cameras could be added into a single smartphone? However, one thing that smartphones till now have not been able to properly integrate is the action cams.

Lens capable of capturing action-packed clips. This is what generally characterizes an Action Cam. They have wide-angle lenses and can record 60fps videos. They probably fall into the 1% of digital camera categories that have not yet been dethroned by smartphone cameras. However, this might change real soon. Because Motorola has recently unveiled the Motorola One Action.

The device gets its name from the action camera that is integrated on its backside. It has an ultra-wide-angle lens that provides 117-degree FOV and can capture videos at 1080p/60. The camera is capable of 4-in-1 pixel binning. This it owns to the 16MP sensor that it uses. The 4-in-1 pixel binning helps to improve low light image quality and also helps in image stabilization. The interesting fact about the action cam is that it shoots landscape video when held vertically. This feature will certainly make it easier to mount the device in automobiles.

However, the action cam cannot shoot still images. For that purpose, the phone uses its 12MP primary camera and a 5MP depth sensor. The primary lens is still capable of recording 4K videos at 30fps. Furthermore, the device has a 6.3” IPS LCD display and features a punch-hole design. The punch hole houses its 12MP selfie shooter.

The device is a part of the Android One program and features the Android 9.0 Pie as its OS. Exynos 9609 chipset powers the device. And it comes with 4GB of RAM. The onboard storage is of 128GB. However, it can be expanded as there is a dedicated microSD slot. Unlike other currently available smartphones, the Motorola One Action does feature a headphone jack. It has a 3.5mm headphone jack on top and a loudspeaker on the bottom rim. Moreover, a 3500mAh non-removable battery powers this device.

New Xiaomi devices on 3C listing. Could it be the Redmi Note 8?

Redmi Note 7 and Note 7 pro garnered a huge fan base. Great specs coupled with an affordable price. What more does a user want right? Well, a new report has emerged online that might excite the Redmi fanbase. We’ve known for quite a while that Redmi is working on the Redmi Note 8 series. The emergence of two new Xiaomi devices on 3C authority has led to many speculating that one of them might just be the Redmi Note 8.

One of the listed Xiaomi smartphone to be certified by China’s 3C authority comes with MDY-09-EK charger. It means that the phone with M1908C3IE and M1908C3IC variants supports only a 10W charging. Considering the fact that the Redmi Note 7 itself supported an 18W charging, we can safely say that this model is not the Redmi Note 8.

Also Read: Xiaomi Mobiles Price in Nepal

However, the other device with variants, M1906G7E and M1906G7T comes with an MDY-10-EC charger. Meaning, it supports up to 18W rapid charging. This feature of this device in the listing has sprung rumors claiming that this might just be the Redmi Note 8. Although, there’s a possibility that none of these devices is the Note 8. And they both belong to a completely different series. Thus it would be wise to wait for an official announcement from Xiaomi.

The constant rumors surrounding the Redmi Note 8 suggests that it will be the first Redmi phone with a 64MP quad-camera setup. It might still have a waterdrop notch on the front similar to its predecessor. Furthermore, the fingerprint sensor might be an in-display or a side-mounted one. Also, Redmi has previously teased a gaming smartphone using MediaTek Helio G90T chipset. So, there’s also a possibility that the tease might have been some sort of reference to the Redmi Note 8.

Once released, the Redmi Note 8 will certainly receive stiff competition from Realme 5 and Realme 5 pro. Additionally, Realme is also expected to launch a 64MP camera smartphone by October. The phone will probably be the new Realme X Pro. To compete with it, Redmi is working on an upgraded version of Redmi K20 Pro. So, there’s a lot to come from Redmi. Thus, the rumors on the internet might be about any one of the Redmi phones. What I’m trying to say with all this is that the rumors at the end of the day are just rumor. Take them with a grain of salt. And wait for an official confirmation before believing anything completely.
