When Nokia launched the Beacon 3 router last year, it followed a different approach with a more homely looking device instead of antennas projecting out of a box. Of course, there are others like this such as Amazon’s Eero and Netgear Orbi. But Nokia’s venture into home accessories is a new thing. And now, it launched the Nokia Beacon 1 – a similar mesh router with some limitations but new features, too!
For perspective, Nokia’s Beacon 3 is a $200 mesh-router that offers speeds of up to AC3000. The Nokia Beacon 1 is a similar mesh-router, cheaper at $129, works on the same 802.11 ac Wi-Fi standard, but is limited to speeds of only AC1200. In layman’s terms, that number refers to the maximum theoretical bandwidth (in Mbps) the router is capable of reaching.
But despite that, the Beacon 1 has some new features that enables it to make the most out of its available bandwidth. It’s Intelligent Channel Selection feature allows it to switch between available 2.4 GHz to 5 GHz channels or bandwidths. This means, that it can pick the best one with less congestion. Also, it will avoid interference with local devices like micro-waves, or some audio equipment, or such. It can identify the devices in your network and optimize their connection accordingly. For instance, if you’re streaming movies on your laptop, it can prioritize that device and choose a less congested channel. For now, this is the only affordable home router capable of switching between channels automatically.
Besides that major difference, the Beacon 1 is smaller, and only has one gigabit Ethernet LAN and one WAN port. Whereas, the Beacon 3 sports one WAN port and 3 LAN ports. In addition, the Beacon also has a Bridge mode. This comes in handy to use it as an Access point, for the router from the default ISP.
Another good thing about the Beacon devices is that they work with the Beacon app on your phone. That app makes for easy installation and also features a detailed heat map showing the network signal strength around the house. So, you can also know where the signal is the strongest or the weakest.
That’s a lot of interesting features for a home router. If only we could get such routers here in Nepal as well…
Did you know Qualcomm had 200-series chipsets? Well, they do, but are long forgotten. These Snapdragon 200-series chipsets are for entry level smartphones. But with the mid-range market expanding rapidly, the company was focusing on its Snapdragon 600 and 700-series processors. And so, after 4 years , Qualcomm announced another Snapdragon 200-chipset, the Snapdragon 215. It’s a successor to the Snapdragon 212, launched back in 2015.
So, yes, the Snapdragon 215 surely took a considerable amount of time. After such a long time, we expect significant upgrades. And it actually does.
Snapdragon 215 Overview
While the older SD212 had a 32-bit Cortex-A7 processor, the new SD215 comes with 64-bit Cortex-A53 CPU clocked at 1.3 GHz. With this switch, Qualcomm promises a steep 50% boost in performance.
On to the graphics front, Qualcomm embedded the Adreno 308 GPU. It’s the same which is also employed by the SD 425, which was targeted at budget and lower-midrange phones at its launch. With that GPU, the SD215 will deliver a 28% bump in graphics performance.
And since multiple camera setups are a trend even on low-end phones, there’s a dual ISP in the Snapdragon 215 as well. This enables it unleash new possibilities in the entry-level camera phones, too. With the new Image Signal Processor on board, the chip can handle a single 13MP camera module, or two 8MP camera modules. This means the upcoming entry-level phones might be able to capture portrait images – at hardware level. Another notable upgrade on the optics department has to be its ability to record 1080p videos. The older SD212 could only record up to 720p.
On the display side, it’s the same old story, though. The chip supports a maximum display resolution of 720p. But unlike the older SD212, which merely supports the 16:9 aspect ratio, this one can go up to 19.5:9.
Furthermore, the company managed to improve connectivity as well. The new chip comes with the support for Wi-Fi 5 (Wi-Fi ac) and Bluetooth 4.2. There is also the inclusion of NFC. That means even the upcoming entry-level devices will support the Android Pay feature. In addition, with VoLTE and EVS Voice calls (“Ultra HD Voice Calls”) support, the call quality can be expected to improve.
There surely are a lot of advancements. But even after all these years, some things haven’t changed. The first thing is the modem on this SoC. It still houses the X5 LTE modem (150/50 Mbps). Also, memory support is the same, too – LPDDR3 RAM, eMMC 4.5 built-in storage and UHS-I micro SD cards.
The Snapdragon 215 also promises a better battery life. Qualcomm has incorporated Hexagon digital signal processor (DSP), with which, users can get 10+ hours of video playback, 20+ hours of voice calls or days of music playback. However, the new chip only offers Quick Charge 1.0. The Snapdragon 212 used to support Quick Charge 2.0 charge, which used to accept power injection up to 18-watts. But the newbie can only handle power up to 10-watts. This is an odd step down, because after so much improvements, why compromise here, though?
Even if you don’t have access to Spotify, you probably know about it…unless you live under a rock! Spotify is one of the most popular music streaming sites. It also allows downloads and such but requires paid subscription (duh!). But the Swedish audio streaming app can prove to be a bit “heavy”, in terms of app size and data storage for all kinds of phones. So, following the trend of big companies to launch a lighter version of their apps, Spotify is launching the Spotify Lite.
The app is already launched, and targets those regions where Internet access is poor and people use old phones. These markets consist of regions like Asia, Latin America, Middle East and Africa, including Brazil, Mexico, Honduras, the Philippines and India as well. The Spotify Lite app is only 10 MB in size and allows you to set a data limit. For perspective, the regular Spotify app is a 100 MB. So, you can say it also works for people with smaller data plans and older devices. So, listeners can clear their song cache if they run out of storage.
This app was in the works since mid 2018. Spotify Lite works the same as the regular one. But it’s optimized for slower connections and phones with lesser data plans. In addition, it allows users to set a data limit, and notifies once you reach the limit. It is officially available in the Google Play Store, and will work with Android versions 4.3 or above. So, this is good news for those who want to use Spotify but don’t have an expensive phone or an extensive data plan.
It’s July 7 and we finally have an estimate, or at least, an idea of how these 3rd Gen Ryzen CPUs perform. After going through a bunch of reviews, articles, performance benchmarks; I have some interesting things to share. The reason we are using someone else’s benchmarks is that AMD didn’t provide us with any CPUs to test out. Nevertheless, that’s not going to stop us from helping you decide which your next CPU should be, given your consideration list includes the 9900k, 9700k, 3900X or the 9700X. So basically just the high-end segment.
Here are a few scenarios for you to choose from:
Gaming
Let’s start with gaming – a territory massively dominated by Intel’s 9900k and the 9700k. And it still does, given the neck to neck pricing between manufacturers. The ones from Intel still manage to push out more fps at 1080p. It comes with better boost clocks, draws more power and is slightly more expensive. Then there is the overclocking part to consider, MCE, sustained fps, the coolers you use.
Surprisingly, the 3900X and the 3700X both come with stock coolers out of the box, a trait Intel discontinued generations ago. So, the cost for a separate cooler does add up, and you could end up choosing the wrong coolers. But I think most people won’t care. You are buying a $400 to $500 CPU, so, you might as well add a cheap 120mm water cooling!
In the end, if you want a CPU strictly for gaming, I would say go for Intel. But we have finally come to a point that going for AMD with the purpose for gaming isn’t an actual deal breaker either.
Winner: Tie

Content Creation
AMD has been smoking Intel out of the park in this category for a few generations now. Programs like the Adobe Premiere Pro or After Effects love the extra core and thread counts, both within the application and plain render times. Intel still manages to perform better in single threaded performance but it doesn’t even come close in terms of multi-threaded workload. And this year, the lead has just grown further for AMD.
So, if you are someone who needs to edit lots of videos, wants minimal render times or often live stream your gameplay online, go with AMD’s 3700X or the 3900X.
Based on a benchmark test from Forbes.com, the Cinebench R20 multi-core score for the i7-9700k was 3711 in stock and 4038 overclocked. This is basically the lowest of the bunch. After that comes the 3700X with its 4837 stock and 5217 on OC. This is already a huge leap over the 9700k and a lot closer to the i9-9900K‘s 4906 stock and 5247 OC. Granted we are looking at just the multicore for now, but it’s still overwhelmingly closer to Intel’s greatest. Completing the list is the 3900X, which comes in at a whopping 7223 stock and 7667 OC. The numbers speak for itself.
Moving on to another test performed by JayzTwoCents (very nice guy, great Youtube contents). He ran both the Cinebench R15 and Blender Benchmark (BMW) both of which puts the 3900X on top, way above the 9900K on multicore tests. The same results can be seen between the 3700X and the 9700K, which the gap between the 3700K and the 9900K has come up to a point of insignificance. As for the single core scores, the 9900K was on top followed by the 9700K while the AMD duo came out at the bottom, although by a small margin.
But at the end of the day, AMD was leaps and bounds ahead of the two Intel CPUs in terms of multicore performance while gaining just a slight lead in the single core tests. Basically, the numbers don’t lie, and AMD comes out as a clear winner here.
Winner: AMD
General Users
The first point goes to AMD on this one as they do provide you with a stock cooler. The users have always had the option to opt for an aftermarket cooler, but at least it comes in as an option. As for Intel buyers, they will have to add a cooler to the cart while buying a CPU. This makes buying an AMD both easier and a tad bit cheaper. But then again, no integrated GPUs for AMD, so you may not need to buy a cooler, but a GPU will be a must, even just to get your system going. At the end of the day, this particular aspect seems a bit pointless to compare.
There is literally no competition here, AMD clearly gives you the most value for your money. You get more cores, more L3 Cache memory, as good of a feature set, and the gaming performance isn’t bad either. The 3900X even offers higher IPC as compared to the 9900k (at 4GHz). So, at least for the time being or until Intel decides to give it’s CPUs a price cut, AMD is the clear winner when it comes to value for money proposition.
Winner: AMD
Conclusion
AMD truly showed off its full potential. Starting off with the 7nm process, following that with great IPC, lots of core counts and ending it off with a really compelling price tag. It took AMD 3 generations to get here and almost a decade to finally give Intel a proper competition. While we did see Intel change its strategies to counter the 1st gen Ryzens, seems like what they did wasn’t enough. To conclude, if you are going to game, and just game on your PC, Intel’s i9-9900k or the i7-9700k might be able to push out more frame rates. But for any other task that’s not gaming, AMD is the clear winner here.
AMD announced two new graphics cards recently in the E3 2019. The AMD RX 5700XT and the 5700 are mid-tier graphics cards, with an impressive price tag. And that price tag got even more impressive with their price drop! Originally launched for $450 (RX 5700XT) and $380 (RX 5700), AMD managed to shock everyone at the event with a price cut of $50 for the RX 5700XT (now $400) and $30 for the RX 5700 (now $350). This comes in after Nvidia’s announcement of it’s SUPER graphics chips. But the question remains- How will these AMD cards fair against’s Nvidia’s latest?
At $400, the RX 5700XT will now take on the RTX 2060 Super while the RX 5700 will go head on with the RTX 2060. With this, the GPU market finally is getting interesting, and, in addition, new GPU buyers will heavily benefit from it.
The Feature Set
Before we get to the GFLOPs scores and the comparisons, there are a few things we should know first. The new GPUs feature new architectural improvement but we might not see the same reflection on the end user’s gaming experience. Plus there are a few things that the AMD counterpart misses out on, for instance, Ray Tracing. Be it Direct X Ray-tracing or even the Vulkan RT. Basically, there is no hardware level RT acceleration for AMD.
And couple that with the lack of tensor processing clusters for AI and machine learning. But then again, AMD’s Finewine technology does show some promise. The new cards can also output up to an 8k@60fps (Visually lossless) thanks to Display Stream Compression 1.2a. You also get Radeon Image sharpening, Radeon Anti Lag, PCIe Express 4.0 and the new open source FidelityFX. But none of these will matter for most, what will make a difference are the FPS numbers.
Benchmarks
Benchmarks can give you a clear cut idea of how the cards will perform in real life. Take for instance the scores from 3DMark TimSpy where the 5700XT scores 8911 points as compared to the 8960 of the 2060 SUPER. The 5700 follows the same with 7954 points sitting above the RTX 2060’s 7604. The same results follow across the other benchmark test with the RX 5700XT leading the pack, followed by the RTX 2060 SUPER.

There were even a few cases like the 3D Mark Fire Strike test where the 5700 actually beats the 2060 SUPER by a small margin. You can check out the results above, credits for the scores go to JayzTwoCents.
FPS (Frames per second) numbers
While we may not have the cards to test them for ourselves, the internet is filled with fps numbers. And all of the results reflect one thing, AMD once more did what they do best, undercut the competition. The RX 5700XT outpaces the 2060 Super and the 5700 does the same with RTX 2060. You already saw it in the benchmark scores and you are about to see it again in the fps results below:

1 of 5
This concludes it, as far as raw fps numbers are concerned AMD completely annihilates Nvidia’s offerings.
Conclusion
So did the RX 5700 and the 5700XT succeed in bending the rules? Well sort of. But it depends on who you ask, actually. If you want the most fps for your money, sure, the AMD duo should do just fine. But what if you want Ray Tracing, which, is now supported by over 5 games and is expected to finally rise soon. Then there is the DLSS, which is supposed to improve the frame rates of the said supported games. According to a recently surfaced news, over 17 games are expected to support RayTracing and almost 28 will integrate DLSS near future.
In the end, the choice is yours. Do you prefer more fps per dollar or do you want to experience the ever-growing ray tracing segment?
With the latest smartphone iterations, their displays are getting bigger. It seems that smartphone companies are obsessed with giving us larger displays, and we’re just accepting it. But while displays get bigger, the batteries on our smartphones don’t grow proportionately. However, a team of researchers have successfully introduced a new OLED technology breakthrough, which can make for longer lasting batteries.
The team of researchers belong to Imperial College of London. They discovered a way to make the OLED displays even more power efficient than it already is – by cutting down the present limitations of OLED. The present OLED technology is more power efficient than LCD, that’s a known fact. They can switch off pixels when not in use, giving them deeper blacks, and saving energy too.
But still, OLED displays have to add various filters to counter the glares from external light sources. That is, when you use your phones outside, they have to counter the glares by using various filters to improve readability. The filters can do that very well, but those filters also limit the amount of light that comes out of the display. Hence, the necessity to brighten up your smartphone outdoors. So, even if there is battery saving, it still wastes a significant amount of energy.
And the researchers found a solution for exactly this new OLED technology breakthrough. They found a way to control the chemistry of OLED materials (i.e. the structure) used in the display to bypass the the need for the anti-glare filter, which will extend the battery life.
They discovered that it’s possible to produce OLED displays that emit special type of polarized light, which, is not affected by external glares. So, there would be no necessity of a filter. Hence, phones wouldn’t have to brighten up the displays in external environments, making them more power efficient. In addition, this also makes for a lower carbon footprint.
This breakthrough can, very well, be the way to make screens of all kinds brighter, with better contrast and longer life. Also, this will not only help smartphones, but also TVs and smartwatches as well.
However, real life implications can be different. And we can’t be sure of the display quality just yet. So, we’re waiting for further test results. Still, this is a possible breakthrough for the smartphone world!
Facebook is always under some seize, one way or the other. Granted, they don’t have a great track record when it comes to privacy. Leading up from their 2016 Cambridge Analytica scandal to the one some months ago, when it was spying on people who don’t even use Facebook! And they did try to convince users about how they’re bringing new kinds of security and privacy measures in their Facebook Developer Conference 2019. But then again, there are people who trust them, and there are who don’t. And then, there are people like me who don’t trust them, and yet won’t stop using it! But just recently, Apple Co-founder, Steve Wozniak, advised people to get off of Facebook.
It didn’t happen out of the blue, though. TMZ, the celebrated celebrity online magazine had a run-in with Steve Wozniak at the National Regan Airport in Washington D.C. When questioned about certain privacy-related stuff, Steve Wozniak went on to express his views and finally advised the people to get off Facebook if they could. Steve Wozniak also deleted his own Facebook account last year.
When asked if he was worried about smart devices spying, he said he was. But there was nothing we could do to stop it. And that makes sense. With many of us using features like smart home appliances, things like Google Home and Alexa have an easy way to access our data. In our bid to stay interconnected, we might be exposing our conversations for all of them to hear. And the level of privacy we think we may have is just not there.
Wozniak even went on to say that social networking companies such as this, should give the users options. Meaning, users can pay for using the platform while the platform keeps the data secure and not sell it to advertisers. And according to various researches, the average cost for using such services ads-free would amount to only $15 a year! And in order to save that, we’re selling off our data, through which these companies make millions!
Also, he said it was smart to delete our Facebook and Instagram accounts. Of course, for many, it doesn’t matter if their information leaks. But if you’re anyone with influence or worth something, or just value your privacy, it’s very smart to do so. Of course, Facebook is only one of such sites. But it comes under constant fire, because well, they can’t seem to keep themselves out of scandals. However, Google has more data on you than anyone else. Because, with their tracking code on almost every website you visit, they have a front row seat to what you’re doing!
But getting rid of Facebook is a start, I guess. Yes, we can’t stop Google, but Facebook is a platform we willingly upload our data to. And with all of this, it’s even more difficult to trust Facebook’s cryptocurrency, Libra.
While we cannot stop doing that altogether, we can control what we upload on it. And let’s see if Mark Zuckerberg means to actually resolve such issues as he put it on Facebook Developer Conference 2019. He stated Facebook is implementing end to end encryption on Messenger, WhatsApp, and Instagram, too, and wants to improve users’ trust in how they store data. But only time will tell if he’ll keep his word.
Having a good camera is not just enough for photography and videography. Although your camera determines the capability of the camera system, it is the lenses, which determines the perspective. The lens also determines the attributes (field of view, depth of field, etc.) of a subject you will get in an image. So without a good lens, you cannot just yet sit back and relax despite owning a flagship camera. Hence, having a good lens is equally important here. And in order to help you make a purchase, here I have tried to compile some of the popular camera lenses available in Nepal listing out their latest price as well.
Sony Lenses Price in Nepal
Since Sony has an official presence in Nepal, you can buy a genuine Sony lens through the authorized channel. Nepa Hima Trade Link is the authorized distributor of Sony products in Nepal and it has various official showrooms spread in the Kathmandu valley.
In addition to selling genuine products, Nepa Hima Trade Link also provides one year of warranty on every purchase of Sony products in Nepal. And since there are service centers as well, you don’t have to worry even if your lens stops functioning well. Below is the list of all the Sony Lenses available in Nepal along with their latest price.
There is an authorized distributor for Canon products as well. Primax International is the designated official to handle the sales of genuine Canon Products in Nepal. Primax International has a complete lineup of Canon’s DSLRs and mirrorless cameras in Nepal. And it has introduced various lenses that would fit into the cameras it’s been selling.
Currently, there are two showrooms of Canon camera and lenses in Nepal. They sell genuine products and offer 1-year of warranty on every product you buy from them. There is also a service center to fix all the mishaps you have on your Canon Camera or the lenses. Below is the list of all the Canon lenses available in Nepal along with their price.
Sigma lenses are not officially available in Nepal. But if you want one, you can make a purchase through the gray channel (however, we do not recommend it). And there are various shops in Nepal, which sale the Sigma lenses. In order to write this article, I visited various camera shops in the New Road area and I compiled a list of some popular Sigma lenses and their price in Nepal.
Below is the list of some of the lenses that came into my mind while doing the research. If you want a lens different from the types I mentioned below, you can visit a camera store and make an order. They will surely make it available to you. And talking about the pricing, the rate for each lens tend to differ from shop to shop. But on studying the pattern, I found the prices to be somewhat close to international pricing.
Tamron lenses are also quite popular. However, there is no authorized distributor of Tamron products in Nepal. So, they are not available for purchase in Nepal through an official channel. Nonetheless, you can buy a Tamron lens if you need one. There are various shops from where you can buy a Tamron lens, which obviously would be through a gray channel (we don’t intend to promote gray markets by the way).
To research the Tamron lenses price in Nepal, I visited some shops in New Road (just like I did for the price of Sigma lenses). And below is the list of Tamron lenses, which I managed to get the price of.
Apple is a company that interests even those who don’t really like Apple products. And rumors surrounding Apple are also the most interesting ones! Rumors for the iPhone XI started quite some time ago, but now the rumor mill is kicking into high gear! There are a lot of interesting insights. And while we can’t say for sure if all of them will be true, Apple products rumors have good credibility, generally speaking. So, here are the latest iPhone XI leaks and rumors.
New features
The new iPhones will ship with iOS 13, that’s for sure. After all, they announced that back in the WWDC 2019, and it might have been for this very purpose, primarily. Of course, we’re calling them iPhone 11s for now, because we don’t have official names for them, yet. But the iPhone 11’s will most likely have the same product lineup as the iPhone XS series – an XS, an XS Max, and an XR. Hence, the name confusion thing.
Source: Slash Leaks
The new iPhone leaks actually go all the way up to their logic boards, actually. A couple of trusted leaksters have leaked the images and blueprints of the new logic boards. So, it looks like Apple is switching their internals as well, to make some changes. And since leaks from multiple sources gave the same result, we can have an extra amount of confidence in these leaks. Of course, Apple is very serious about its security measures and leaks, and they claim to be chasing down each leakster. But, they’re not doing a good job, apparently. Anyway, it means more tech tidbits for us!
Another leak that we have is the battery capacity of the new iPhones. Now, iPhones never really pack big batteries, compared to the Android World. But iOS has a pretty neat battery optimization. However, the iPhone XI Max is going to have a 3650 mAh battery over the XS Max’s 3174 mAh, which is like a 10 – 13% increment. That’s not much, but given the new iOS 13, and with the new Apple A13 chip, it will make great changes! Also, the same source claims that the iPhone XI will have a 3320 mAh battery. And since there were rumors that they will also support Reverse Wireless Charging like the Huawei P30 Pro and the Galaxy S10, the bigger batteries are a must!
New Design
This year too, we’ll probably not see refreshed designs on the new iPhones. Sure, there are leaked and rendered images, that show what the new iPhones will look like. And sure enough, the form factor remains the same. The only changes are in the rear camera module, which shows a more square-shaped camera bump.
Since we’re expecting a similar iPhone lineup to the XS lineup, we’ll get a 5.8″ and 6.5″ OLED iPhones along with a 6.1″ LCD iPhone. These are most likely the successors of the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and the iPhone XR. And according to the images, the 2019 iPhone XR will have a dual camera set up while the other two will have triple cameras. The two cameras on the 2019 XR will be a wide-angle lens and a telephoto one. As for the triple camera setup, we’re not quite sure what they will pack.
In addition, more prototypes leaks show various colors of the 2019 iPhone XR. As usual, it will offer more color options than the other iPhones. But what legitimizes the leaked designs, even more, is the arrival of the iPhone clones like that from the Gu Phone – which has been making iPhone clones since a long time ago!
But I guess, those are the final designs that Jony Ive made before he left Apple.
What’s more, is that Apple is making a special edition iPhones for the Chinese market with TouchID on the display itself. Apple sales are already down in China, and the Huawei-US scandal hasn’t helped them any. So, to attract more Chinese customers, they’re taking a few extra steps.
Also, the new iPhones will be releasing this fall of 2019.
Other new Apple Products
Now, there are also rumors of other Apple devices in the works. There are claims that Apple is working on a foldable iPad. With every other big company making their own foldable devices, Apple would have to start, too. So, maybe they chose to make a foldable iPad instead of a foldable iPhone. That’s interesting, but given that Apple likes to implement new technologies on their iPads first, it’s not surprising.
In addition, Apple is also working on future AirPods. The current AirPod 2 is already great, but the latest patents show that they’ve improved sound leaks on the new AirPod. But the most exciting part about that is that they might also be available in black color!
Final news about Apple is that they’ll solve their keyboard issues with their MacBook Air by going back to their Scissor switch style keyboard layout. This will be a relief for anyone wanting to get the new MacBook Airs in 2020.
So, that’s all about the iPhone XI Leaks and Rumors. What do you think about them? Do let us know.
I think smartphone companies are still in the denial stage that tablets are not a popular demand anymore. Tablet sales are going down, and the market just doesn’t demand them anymore. Maybe because smartphones are getting bigger and better, or tablets just don’t deliver as per expectations. Yet, companies are launching new tablets. And Samsung is one of them. They very recently launched their Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 2019, an entry-level tablet.
Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 2019 Overview
Being an entry-level tablet, you cannot expect a lot from it, that’s a given. Just like the name, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 2019 features an 8″ display. Sadly, the display is not Full-HD, which is a bummer for a screen of that size. It’s just an HD+ screen, and not an AMOLED panel, either. Also, the screen has a 16:10 aspect ratio, and comes surrounded by bezels everywhere. So, this is like an old-school tablet, making it all the more pointless in 2019.
People don’t really care about the cameras on tablets, but nevertheless, there is an 8 MP rear camera with a 2 MP selfie camera. There’s about 32 GB onboard storage, and you can expand it up to 512 GB via a microSD card. That might be okay, but this tablet is powered by a Snapdragon 429 processor and supported by 2 GB RAM. And this makes it even more difficult to recommend.
However, the best thing about this is a massive 5100 mAh battery, so, it can go on and on, but I don’t see much use for such an underwhelming device. But maybe, it can be a great media consumption device, as it features stereo speakers, too. In addition, it comes with a 2-month free YouTube Premium and 3-month Spotify Premium subscriptions.
There is no word on the pricing or availability yet. But it will be available in two colors: Black and Silver.
