It has only been a few weeks since Samsung showcased a couple of displays it has been working on. Fast forward a few weeks, Huawei looks set to emulate one of those displays on a new smartphone. The smartphone, rumored to be named the Nova 3S will be among the first devices to feature this sort of display cut-out.
2018 has seen the trend of mobile phones featuring a high screen-to-body ratio with a number of devices going absolutely bezel-less. Complying with that trend, Samsung had only recently unveiled designs of display that have three types of notches.
Huawei has just released a teaser on one of its social media account citing a smartphone launch for December. What’s more interesting here is the sparkling light on the top right corner of the device. This design certainly reminds us of the Infinity-O display.
This design looks very similar to the renders of the Galaxy A8s which will have the same cut out to equip the selfie camera, according to various leaks. Up until now, Samsung has always stuck with no cutouts for its display, so it will be interesting to see how the company moves here onwards.
It will be interesting to see how the public reacts to this new smartphone from Huawei, as a lot of people have been waiting to see the end of notches on smartphones.
Love iPads? Then surely the new 2018 update of the iPad Pros were on your wish list. Well, thanks to Oliz Store now that wish-list can finally come true. The two new Apple iPad Pro 2018 have got a design overhaul. And now the new iPad Pros looks much cleaner and feature just a USB C port. The display on the smaller 11″ iPad has a 2388 x 1668 pixels resolution panel, while the 12.9″ comes with a slightly denser 2732 x 2048 pixels display.
Both come equipped with ProMotion technology (which automatically adjusts the display rate for up to 120Hz), True Tone support, and a max brightness of 600nits. The bezels are now even thinner, with a layer of anti-reflective coating on top.
Both iPads come with the new A12X Bionic chip from Apple. It’s built on a 7nm process with an 8-Core CPU and 7-Core GPU. These CPUs are pretty much as good as it gets even for high demanding tasks like creating 3D models, editing photos, etc.
There is even a Neural Engine Chip that works alongside the A12X chip for better machine learning. Storage options start from 64GB all the way to 1TB with 4G LTE support on selected models.
The iconic home button is now gone, replaced fully by the FaceID that utilizes the 7MP front-facing True-Depth camera. It’s usable for securely unlocking your iPad, as well as Apple Pay. The back gets a 12MP camera with up to 4k video recording.
The batteries on these iPad Pros are rated to last about 10 hours while doing certain Apple approved tasks. Company figures aside, the smaller iPad Pro comes with a 29.37Wh battery while bigger one has a 36.71Wh unit.
Apple became the first trillion dollars company recently. The milestone cues the formidable stature of the company. However, the sales of the recent iPhones say otherwise. Lately, Apple’s sales are going downhill. It already has been two months of the launch of the new iPhones. However, the sales are not going the way the silicon-based tech titan expected. So to promote the sales, Apple restarted the production of the iPhone X and slashed the price of iPhone XR in certain regions.
iPhone X production
During the announcement of the iPhone XS and XS Max, the company declared the discontinuation of the iPhone X. Except for the chipset and OS, there were no any major differences between the iPhone X and iPhone XS. Probably that could be the reason for launching the new iPhone XS at the price of the iPhone X.
So Apple hasn’t been true to its words. But according to the rumors flying around in the tech community, there are two broad reasons. The first reason suggests that the tech giant is facing a huge blow in terms of sales. So many people believe that this step of Apple is to supplement the sales and revenue and to meet the target.
Apple surely is a profit-oriented company. But a company of that stature may not go against its words just to increase its sales. So the second reason suggests that the company is being obliged to restart the production. The rumor elaborates that Apple had a contract with Samsung to purchase certain units of Super AMOLED displays for the iPhone X. But in the one year’s time, Apple did not make use of all the contracted amount of display units from Samsung. So due to the mere obligation of Apple to use the contracted number of Super AMOLED displays from Samsung, Apple had to restart the iPhone X production.
iPhone XR Price Drop
iPhone XR is the most affordable iPhone of this year. Cutting some premium specs of the iPhone XS and XS Max, Apple tried to make the iPhone XR somewhat budget-friendly. Despite the affordable nature, the XR was still powerful in many aspects than its competitors. Also, Apple released the XR in many variants of colors to lure the customers and hence to create an upsurge in sales. But sadly, things did not go as planned and on the favor of Apple. Since there are a lot of capable smartphones (mostly Chinese) available at similar or a lower price than the iPhone XR, people shifted their attention to the other phones.
With two months passed already, this kind of decline in sales can be really disastrous for Apple. And if things go like this, it would be even harder to compete with other smartphones when the calendar hits 2019. So the company slashed the price of iPhone XR in certain regions to lure people into iPhones and finally to create an upsurge in its sales.
A few months ago, Huawei surpassed Apple in terms of sales. And Huawei’s sales is going uphill. Other Chinese companies like OnePlus and Xiaomi are also making quite an impact in the smartphone market with their value for money phones. This can worsen the things even more for Apple. So due to the overpricing nature of Apple, the company seems to be losing its grip on the smartphone. But with these stunts, can Apple discourage the declining sales? Drop your thoughts in the comments below.
When the presence of a dual camera in a smartphone is becoming mainstream and the concept of triple cameras is still a sapling, Samsung pushed all its limits to provide four cameras in its smartphone. With four cameras at the back, the Samsung Galaxy A9 2018 features a total of five cameras. With plenty of cameras, this smartphone does sound interesting. But how does this smartphone really fares when it comes to real life usage? Find out in this Samsung Galaxy A9 2018 review.
Camera
Since the cameras are the major highlight of the phone, let’s begin the review with the camera. As mentioned earlier, the phone carries a quad camera setup at the back. Accompanying the primary shooter, there are three additional lenses – each one doing a unique task. So let me explain each one of them.
The topmost camera among the four is an ultra-wide angle lens. This camera lens is an 8MP sensor and a f/2.4 aperture. It basically extends the field-of-view up to 120-degrees, just as wide as the pair of human eyes can see.
The second camera on the Galaxy A9 is the telephoto lens. Paired with a 10MP sensor and f/2.4 aperture, this camera promises to capture images with 2x zooming without any loss in the image quality.
The primary shooter lies on the third from the top. It is equipped with a 24MP sensor and a wide f/1.7 aperture. The major purpose of the wide aperture is to let in a plenty of light into the sensor which helps capture amazing images even in the low light settings.
The last one is a 5 MP depth-sensor with f/2.2 aperture. Now, you all know what a depth sensor does – highlighting the subject and blurring the background to give portrait images with bokeh effects.
Yes, the phone seems to have all sorts of lenses. And so, I had all sorts of expectations from it. But it was a huge blow when I took photos. The primary camera, despite being rich on the megapixel count with a 24MP resolution, couldn’t quite pack sufficient details into the images. It wasn’t the case all the time but I also had problems while focusing on the subject. And that’s not all, some of the captured images even had slightly inaccurate colors.

In low light settings, things worsen more. The already not-so-sharp images lose details further with noise and what not. And some of the images were absolutely useless.

Disappointed with the primary camera, I toggled to the ultra-wide angle setting. The ultra-wide angle lens also did not fare any better. It, too, lacked the punch when it comes to details. I also noticed a slight change in color temperature in the images from the primary camera and the ultra-wide camera. The captured images also seem to have a fish-eye effect with a slight visual distortion near the edges due to which the images quite look slightly hemispherical.

With these disappointments, I was still expecting positive results from the telephoto camera. But adding insult to the injury, the telephoto camera dejected me further. Although Samsung claims it can shoot with lossless zooming, the captured photos said otherwise.

And lastly, I toggled to the Live Focus option to turn on the depth-sensing camera. I captured a fair amount of portrait images. Just look at these portraits, you can yourself observe the jittery edge detection and unnatural blurs. Yes, it has the option to select the focus area and the blur intensity; it still was hard to obtain a decent portrait image sometimes.

The rear camera on the phone failed to bring decent results. So, the Quad camera setup on this phone looks simply appears to be a gimmick and nothing more than a stunt – which, they failed. We have seen Samsung making compromises on other aspects of the phone previously, but never on the camera front. The A9 failed to bring decent results on my tests, and this was a hard truth to swallow.
So I thought to reach out to Samsung, thinking that this may be a faulty review unit. And promptly, I was told that the review units everyone is getting are betas, i.e. not fully functioning well. I was told that the retail units, which would go to the customers, would have polished software and won’t have such kind of issues. But during the review period, the phone was not available for sale to the customers and I couldn’t check the differences. When they do become available, we might have to perform an in-depth camera review for everyone out there if Samsung indeed delivers as promised. But for now, it is what it is.
Continuing with the camera, there is also a 24MP selfie camera on the front, which, unlike the rear camera captures amazing images. And this is also why I refused to believe that the rear cameras are the way they are. There is also a selfie focus feature to capture the portrait selfies. Since there is just a single camera on the front, software does all the works on blurring the background. So the portrait selfies lack proper edge detection but it was decent enough for my liking. I sincerely hope, for the sake of Samsung fans, and Samsung themselves, that the retail units do perform better than these.

Design and Build
Now, let’s dive into some other aspects of the phone. When it comes to design, the Galaxy A9 looks absolutely stunning. It comes with a tall and sleek body wrapped in a plastic back and reinforced with a metallic frame. A plastic body on a premium mid-ranger surely does not sound appealing. But it is so cleverly crafted that it gives a feel of a glass back. And while holding the phone during my usage, it offered me a premium impression.
All the buttons are on the right, at least all the important ones, anyway. The dedicated Bixby button is on the left, which I accidentally pressed countless times often being mistaking it with the volume button. I don’t use it much, and I can’t think of anyone who does either. But the sad part it is, it neither can be turned off nor can be remapped. So you have to learn to live with that!
At the back, the fingerprint sensor is at a good location. Just where my finger rests while holding a smartphone. So, unlocking the device wasn’t a problem for me at all.
Display
On the display front, the phone comes with a 6.3-inch Full-HD+ display featuring a Super AMOLED panel. With a Super AMOLED panel at disposal, the contents on the handset look lively with appreciable contrast ratio. Viewing angles and color accuracy are also impressive. During the review, I got a chance to compare it with the OnePlus 6 and in the comparison, I did not find any major differences. That definitely cues a premium quality display. So Kudos to Samsung!
Furthermore, the screen on the phone is also sufficiently bright and I did not have any issues even while viewing the contents even on a bright sunny day. But the thing that bugged me on this phone is the absence of notification LED lights. This phone, however, has “Always On display” feature as a replacement for that. But this feature does not quite alert the users about the notifications and it also consumes a considerable amount of power than the notification LEDs. So the replacement did not quite console me. And all this even with bezels on the phone is questionable.
Performance
As for the performance, the phone is powered by the Snapdragon 660 chipset and is not bad by any means. But since the OnePlus is offering a Snapdragon 845 chipset on a smartphone available at a somewhat similar price and Xiaomi offering the same chipset on a smartphone half the price of this phone, the choice of the chipset on the A9 2018 did not please me.
But, what did please me was the generosity in the memory side. The phone has a good 6GB RAM and 128GB of storage. On top of it, there is a dedicated SD card to expand the storage further.
So with plenty of RAM at the helm and a decent chipset on board, the phone performs remarkably well. Multitasking and switching between apps is also blazing fast. Similarly, while playing games, the phone does not sigh with the fatigue. Playing light games was a breeze on this phone.
It did try to maintain the consistency even while playing graphics intensive games but hadn’t been quite successful. Although the counts were minimum, I noticed lags and stutters, which occurred mainly while playing Asphalt 9 in high settings and PUBG in medium settings. Considering the price, it’s not very convincing.
Software and UI
The Galaxy A9 2018 comes with the Android Oreo out of the box with Experience UI on the top as usual. Like all the other Samsung smartphones, this one too comes with tons of bloatware. But since most of them can be disabled or uninstalled, there is nothing much to worry about.
But what did bug me was the inclusion of Android 8.0 Oreo on the phone. Since the phone was launched after the rollout of the stable version of Android Pie, I was hopeful about the phone receiving the latest software, which is not the case here. But maybe, the retail units, like Samsung claims, will come out with Android Pie or, if not, the phone might receive one pretty soon. Until then, it’s fingers crossed.
Battery
The aspect, where the Galaxy A9 2018 shines is on the battery front. The phone rocks with a massive 3800mAh battery, that’s truly respectable. Since the A9 2018 features an efficient processor and a low power consuming display, it does really well when it comes to backup. The phone lasts easily for a day and a half on normal use. I always ended up with 35 to 40% at the end of the day. So I am entirely satisfied with the backup.
The phone also comes with a quick charging support. Although it is marketed as fast charging, it was not fast enough for my liking. The handset takes around 1 hour and 40 minutes to get the battery fully charged. So when it comes to charging speed, the phone lags behind the smartphones like OnePlus 6T and Vivo V11 Pro by a huge margin.
Verdict
To sum it up, the A9 2018 is really a great device. It has got the fancy design, capable chipset, remarkable display, and a respectable battery life. On the camera department, we couldn’t pass a solid judgment. But even if the cameras were great as Samsung promised, the phone still doesn’t make sense at this price despite having so many great features already. At a similar price, if you can buy the OnePlus 6T, which is better than the Galaxy A9 2018 in almost every aspect. So why settle for the A9?
It is not a Black Friday offer or any sort of other deals. But Vivo recently slashed the price of the Vivo V11. So this is going to be a permanent price drop. And at the new price, the handset has become the most affordable smartphone in Nepal to come up with a whopping 128GB of storage. Other specs of the smartphone is pretty good as well. So this Vivo V11 price drop seems to bring a strong competition among the mid-range smartphones in Nepal.
Vivo V11 Overview
When it comes to looks, Vivo V11 is really appealing. It comes in three color variants: Starry Night, Dazzling Gold, and Nebula. All these colors complement the design of the phone pretty well. So the handset looks absolutely stunning. This gorgeous smartphone is equipped with a 6.3-inch IPS display, which features Full-HD+ resolution. The display on the device comes in 19:9 aspect ratio with a notch on the top. The notch on the Vivo V11 is really tiny. And with this little notch, the display on it looks more or less similar to the waterdrop display on the Oppo F9. Vivo likes to call the display on the device as a Halo display. With the pixel density of 400PPI, this so-called Halo display looks sufficiently sharp.
On the performance front, the phone comes with MediaTek Helio P60 chipset accompanied by 4GB of RAM. And as mentioned earlier, the phone flaunts a massive 128GB of storage, which is absolutely respectable at its price. In addition, there is an SD card slot to expand the storage further.
Like all the Vivo phones, Vivo V11 is also a camera-centric smartphone. The phone enjoys a dual camera setup at the back, which comprises of a 16MP and 5MP sensors. Upfront, there is a 25MP camera dedicated for the selfies.
On the software front, the phone comes with Android Oreo with FunTouch OS on the top. Vivo V11 also features a 3400mAh non-removable battery to supply the power juice to the phone.
There’s a new Honor phone in town. Six months after the launch of the Honor 10, we now have the Honor 10 Lite – a phone that is targeted towards the younger audience, or so they claim. The Honor 10 Lite is slightly different than the Honor 10 in terms of design, and in internals, it matches the Honor 8X. But the major difference is the new fancy gradient colors they’re flaunting.
Honor 10 Lite Overview
The new Honor 10 Lite has a large 6.21″ LCD screen up front with Full HD+ resolution. Pixels wise, we might not be able to expect flagship level display, but it might be impressive, nevertheless. The screen is packed in a body that flaunts gradient colors in an eye-candy design.
In the camera department, the rear setup packs dual cameras – a 13 MP primary lens with f/1.8 aperture, and a 2 MP depth sensor. The front camera is a 24 MP lens with f/2.0 aperture. But with its new AI capabilities, they claim that this camera will be a game changer. It supposedly features pixel-binning to emulate 1.8 micrometers of pixel size and learns from your selfie preferences over time. Also, it enables you to change the shape of a face, color, eye-colors, surrounding light, and even whiten your teeth! Talk about a misleading Tinder profile, right? But well, seems AI in the camera is going places.
Inside the shiny body, a HiSilicon Kirin 710 powers the phone, which can deliver good mid-tier performance. There are also 4 GB / 6 GB RAM variants, with 64 GB / 128 GB internal storage. There is also an option for expandable storage of up to 512 GB that uses the secondary SIM slot. This phone packs a 3400 mAh battery with Fast Charging features and USB-C. And this phone, thankfully, features the 3.5mm headphone jack.
The phone will be running on the latest EMUI 9.0.1 based on Android 9.0 Pie, with features like Adaptive Battery, Adaptive Brightness and Android Dashboard out of the box. Also, it features the Turbo Boost 2.0 as well.
Honor 10 Lite Specifications:
Design: Dual Gradient colors on shiny finish
Display: 6.21″ IPS LCD Full HD+ (1080 x 2340 pixels)
Colors: Gradient Blue, Gradient Red, Night Black, Lily White
Prices: CNY 1399 (US $200) for 4/64 GB, CNY 1699 (US $245) for 6/64GB, CNY 1899 (US $275) for 6/128GB
All of that specs packed into a phone that costs less than $300 seems pretty great. But it is quite unfortunate that the Honor brand doesn’t come to Nepal. But what do you think about the new Honor 10 Lite? Do let us know.
The batteries that are in wide-spread use today, Lithium-Ion is said to have reached its peak potential. i.e., it’s in a state, where now, no further development on it is possible to optimize it make it better. These Lithium-ion batteries were popular for their high energy density, and low self-discharge. But that is never enough. And so, companies were looking further to develop batteries that would have higher-energy density, higher resistance to heat, making them more durable. And so, Solid State Batteries were supposed to be the answer.
What are Solid State Batteries?
Solid State Batteries are those that use both solid electrodes and solid electrolytes, instead of the liquid electrolytes used in today’s Lithium-ion batteries. The problem with this is that liquid electrolytes batteries are more flammable, and so, packing large-sized batteries always raises concern. They can lead to accidents, as seen on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7, although we aren’t sure if that is exactly what caused them.
With Solid State Batteries, however, using solid electrolytes in the battery would be immensely safer. Also, they are more resistant to heat, so, they’re able to withstand higher temperatures. And that in turn can help charge batteries faster with more watts. In addition, these solid electrolytes have higher energy densities. A single unit can have 30% more energy density, i.e 400 Wh/kg. This makes them retain energy for longer periods of time, preventing self-discharge. A kind of battery, that charges fast, holds more power and is safer. All the requirements of a good kind of battery.
Development
The only problem was to figure out what to use as a solid electrolyte. And also, that they’re expensive to mass produce. But now, finally, it seems a Chinese startup company has figured out a solution. Qing Tao Energy Development Co, a startup company claims to have deployed a production line of such batteries in East China. And it is already capable of producing 100 MWh worth cells per year. Although, there are no reports on how the company managed to do so. Maybe a trade secret?
But they plan to increase production to 700 MWh by 2020. And that may very well be the answer to our problems caused by conventional present batteries. These batteries are primarily for usage in cars and such. But we can only hope they will be integrated into mobile phones too!
When other smartphone manufacturers started providing multiple camera setup at a single side, Samsung had been hesitant to provide such kind of setups at first. But the tech titan changed its mind and later brought the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 with a dual camera setup at the back. Since then the phone company released a number of smartphones with multiple camera setup on a single side. And the recent examples are Samsung Galaxy A7 2018 and Samsung Galaxy A9 2018, which come with three and four cameras at the back and a total of four of five cameras respectively. But even with that many cameras, Samsung has not yet been satisfied. This time, Samsung is planning a smartphone, which will be boasting a total of six cameras. This alleged Samsung six camera smartphone will feature two cameras on the front and four at the back.
With so many cameras, it seems like Samsung seems strictly following the routes of Huawei. But unlike Huawei’s smartphones, Samsung handsets were not quite impressive on the camera front. While we tested the smartphones like the A9 2018 and A7 2018, the camera setups were more or less like a gimmick. But this time, the sources claim that these new cameras “promise richer photos and better spatial perception”. And according to the report, this alleged six-camera smartphone is referred to as “Beyond X”, which is also said to feature 5G connectivity. And the display on the handset is rumored to be a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED panel, which would make it bigger than the mighty Note 9.
The report also gave a few insights about Samsung’s upcoming flagships, the Galaxy S10. According to the sources, there will be two or three new smartphones in the Galaxy S10 family except for the “Beyond X”. These smartphones will go with different display sizes and will be available at different prices. The Galaxy S10 family is also supposed to feature some big upgrades over the predecessors. There will be an under-display fingerprint sensor, a total of four or five cameras, big battery, infinity O, U, V or all infinity display and reverse wireless charging to name a few. The Galaxy S10 smartphones are also rumored to be launched in MWC 2019, which will start from February 25, 2019.
Samsung also has also been working on the foldable smartphone, which might go by the name “Samsung Flex” or “Galaxy Flex”. So in a few months’ time, we are going to witness, some awesome pieces of technology. So are you guys excited? Let us know in the comment section down below.
Oppo A3s was launched in mid-September of this 2018. Considering its price and specs, the smartphone was highly overpriced. However, Oppo has dropped the price of OPPO A3s in Nepal. So, let’s check out the complete specs, updated price, and availability of Oppo A3s in Nepal here.
Oppo A3s Overview
Performance and Memory
The OPPO A3s spec-sheet looks quite compelling at the price point. For less than Rs. 20,000 (for the base variant), you can get the Octa-core Snapdragon 450 chipset for performance. That’s the same chip available in the Samsung Galaxy A6+ and Samsung Galaxy J8. Oppo A3s combines 2/3 GB RAM to the processor for a good performance. Also, it has a whopping 4230 mAh battery that can easily last you for more than a day. It comes with 16/32 GB internal storage option in Nepal but has an expandable storage option via microSD for up to 256 GB. All that rests under a smooth glossy design that looks premium.
Design and Display
The phone sports a large 6.2″ IPS LCD screen with an HD+ resolution of 720 x 1520 with 271 PPI. Also, the bezels are only 2.05 mm thin, making it a super full screen! For the price, a super full screen with that resolution seems good enough. However, as it’s with Oppo, the highlight of the phone is the camera.
Camera
Oppo A3s packs a dual-camera setup at the back, a 13 MP + 2 MP sensor for vivid and crisp pictures. The 2 MP lens helps you use shallow depth effect for sharper photos and wide-angle pictures. The selfie camera is an 8 MP sensor integrated with AI Smart Beauty technology, that allows you to take stunning selfies! The phone runs on Android Oreo 8.1 with Color OS 5.1 on top.
Another interesting feature, the phone packs is it’s “Music Party” function. With this, you can open up a hotspot and connect multiple smartphones with the Color OS, to play the same track on all phones. Now that’s a fun solution if you want to ramp up your music, isn’t it? And talking about the color options, the Oppo A3s debuts in two different colors – Red and Dark Purple.
Oppo A3s Specifications:
6.2-inch (1520 x 720 pixels) 18:9 FullView 2.5D curved glass display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection

Oppo A3s Price in Nepal & Availability
The new price of A3s in Nepal is NPR. 15,990 for the 2/16GB variant and NPR. 24,590 for the 3/32GB variant. It is available through both online and offline retail shops in Nepal
The Colors Pride 5E, one of the first smartphones from Colors with an 18:9 display just received a 12% drop in its price. At the new price of Rs 7,925, the smartphone just got even more compelling.
The highlight of the smartphone is the 5-inch 18:9 display, which you rarely get on a price this low. Add 1GB of RAM, dual-SIM support, 8GB internal memory, and a 2,300mAh battery (which should be ample for the config), it just becomes a more complete package.
Judging from its price tag, most buyers won’t really care about the Android Go implementation. Still, it will make a huge difference in the end user experience, something most of the good children will keep a look out for while choosing a smartphone for their parents.
The smartphone comes with 5MP cameras with LED flash on both sides. Not saying it’s a good camera but what can you expect at this price anyway.
Judging by the price alone, one can look away from the fact that it’s an FWVGA display, or the slow processor or the underwhelming cameras. If you want a smartphone, more specifically an Android at a price this low, there aren’t many options.
Colors are offering 3000MB of free mobile data from Ncell for free with every purchase. In conclusion, if you want a smartphone for your dad or your mom or a secondary backup smartphone, it should do just fine.
