After making a mark with their M-series, it’s now time for the 2019 edition of their Galaxy A-series to shine. With rumors of over nine smartphones based on the A-series, Samsung looks aggressive. The company is said to launch one smartphone every month, starting from March till June. This means we will see a total of three phones, likely the A10, A30, and the A50, while the rest will be revealed at a later date.
Samsung Galaxy A-series Overview
According to a Samsung representative, pricing will start at $141 and will climb to a maximum of $703. The list will start from the entry-level Galaxy A10 to the premium Galaxy A90. Other than that, very few details of the smartphone have been outed by the company up till now. The same representative did add Samsung’s expected sales of over $4 billion in 2019 from only the A-series.
Samsung Galaxy A10
The Galaxy A10 is the entry-level smartphone in its series and gets a 6.2-inch infinity-V display with an HD+ resolution. It will run on an octa-core Exynos 7884B clocked at 1.6GHz. The chipset is paired with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The back gets a 13MP f/1.9 single camera set up while the front will house a 5MP f/2.0 unit.
Powering the device is a 4000mAh battery. A micro USB port is in-charge of charging and there is no fast charging support. Also, the phone lacks a fingerprint sensor. Color options include Black and Gold, while the back is made up of Glossy Plastic. Pricing is expected to be around Rs 10,990 and is expected to go official sometime in the month of March.
Samsung Galaxy A30
The Galaxy A30 gets a 3D glossy plastic design, a 6.4″ FHD+ Super AMOLED panel and an Infinity U notch. Powered by an Exynos 7904 SoC, the phone will come in either 3/32GB or 4/64GB variants. The storage is expandable via MicroSD card of up to 512GB. This one also features a 4000mAh battery, but with a USB-C port and fast charging support.
The back gets a 16MP f/1.9 main lens alongside a 5MP f/2.2 ultrawide sensor at the back, while the front only has a 16MP f/1.9 lens. Color options include Black, White, and Blue. The device will also come with Samsung’s Bixby Assistant, Samsung Pay, Pixel merging, and a bunch of other features the A10 misses out on.
Samsung Galaxy A50
The Galaxy A50 shares the same display, design, extra features, color options and battery setup as the A30. The differences start with the SoC, given a more powerful Exynos 9610 chipset. An Octa-Core processor clocked at 2.3GHz paired to either 4/64GB or 6/128GB setup. Cameras also receive an improvement, with a 25MP f/1.7 main lens aided by a 5MP f/2.2 depth sensor and an 8MP f/2.4 ultrawide. At the front, a 25MP f/2.0 sensor takes care of the selfies.
The Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 is now official, boasting entry levels specs and a fairly low price tag. Huawei hasn’t had quite a great time in the entry-level segment, but this phone could change its current standing. Priced at around $135, this phone should rival the likes of the Galaxy M10 or the Realme C1.
The spec sheet shows a 6.09″ 720 x 1560px IPS LCD display with a waterdrop notch. Powered by an Helio A22 SoC, based on four Cortex A53 cores clocked at 2.0GHz. The 12nm SoC is paired to the PowerVR GE8320 GPU.
Finally, it gets 3GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable internal storage. As for the cameras, the notch at the front gets an 8MP f/2.0 sensor with LED flash. Similarly, the back also comprised of just one sensor, a 13MP f/1.8 unit, again with an LED flash. Both cameras can record videos at 1080p@30fps max, although quality might differ.
The Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 runs on Android Pie with EMUI 9.0 out of the box. Powering the device is a 3,020mAh battery while refueling responsibilities have been given to a micro USB port. Color options include Midnight Black and Sapphire Blue. The phone also misses out on a fingerprint sensor.
The phone, as said earlier, is priced at $135, converted from the original price of PHP 6,990. The Y6 Pro 2019 will go up for preorders starting February 18, and you can score a free speaker, earphones or a Lazada voucher coupon. As for the actual date of availability, that starts on February 23.
So now, all of those in the process of acquiring a license can breathe a small sigh of relief. As, from now on, they will not have to keep visiting the DoTM office to check the status of their license exams.
The Department of Transport Management (DoTM) has initiated a new system to inform people about the results of their driving license test and information on smart card print status through SMS. The system is now live, after an agreement signed at DoTM head office. Lawanya Kumar Dhakal, Director General of DoTM and Arvind Sah, Managing Director of Sparrow SMS signed the agreement. This is a good example of effectively implementing ICT in administrative tasks.
DoTM started distributing Smart License since the end of 2015. These digital licenses incorporate electronic chips that are similar to SIM cards. And they contain information about the driver’s identity. And similar to conventional licenses, the procedure to acquire it is similar – a written test followed by a trial.
However, people need to wait for a long time their smart cards even after they complete the procedure. It is, of course, due to the lack of technology to efficiently do so. In addition, there was only one way of knowing if their smart licenses had been issued: to visit the DoTM office and enquire. But with this system in work, at least one part of the troubles seem far away.
It may still take over 5 months to acquire a smart license after your trial. But at least, you don’t have to visit the DoTM office to know about the status now. With this system, you can know about the written test result and the print status of your smart license. You can simply do it via SMS to 33001 for Rs.5.
How to Check the results of the Driving License’s Written Test Exam?
To check the result of your written test, users have to follow few simple steps mentioned below:
Compose an SMS on your phone with the text WT<space>[application id number]
Send the SMS to 33001.
After a while, you will receive an SMS with your results.
How to Check the print status of your smart card license?
Compose an SMS on your phone with the text LC<space>[application id]
Send the SMS to 33003 or 33001.
After a while, you will receive an SMS with the print status of your smart card license.
With the prices of phones getting more premium and people getting less reluctant to pay for them, the budget segment is something that many companies might not invest in. But, there, still, exist some phones in the budget and entry-level devices. And how much sense does this kind of phones make in 2019? Well, it remains to be seen. And so, the Lenovo A5s is a recent launch that has a price tag of less than $100, making it an entry level device. So, what does this phone bring to the table? And does it make sense to get a phone of this kind today? We tried to find out in this Lenovo A5s review.
Lenovo A5s Specifications:
Design: Plastic design with glossy finish, removable back
Display: 5.45″ IPS LCD, HD+ resolution (1440 x 720 pixels)
Rear Camera: 13 MP, Normal mode, HDR
Selfie Camera: 13 MP, Normal Mode, HDR
CPU: Quad-core MT6761 Helio A22 chipset
GPU: PowerVR GE8300
RAM: 2 GB
Storage: 16 GB onboard, expandable up to 128 GB via microSD
Battery: Removable 3100 mAh
Price: Rs.12,500
Design
In terms of design, the Lenovo A5s looks like a typical budget phone of today – with bezels and a chin. It has a plastic body with a glossy finish, which makes it look good, actually. It does not look like a budget phone at first glance. You’ll only know that this is a budget phone because of its small size, and the single camera at the back.

Bezels and Chin
Plus, there is a weight to consider. This phone is very light on the hands, and since it is small in size, it is comfortable to hold as well. The glossy back will attract some fingerprints and smudges, but at this point, that’s nothing new in any kind of phones. The frame is metal, so, it can handle small drops and impacts. The back is removable and you can access the removable battery, Dual SIM, and a memory card. Overall, the design is appealing, considering this is a budget phone.
Display
The display here is a 5.45” IPS LCD panel with HD+ resolution and an 18:9 aspect ratio. There are considerable bezels all around the device, but that doesn’t make the phone look unappealing.
The HD+ resolution on a display this size looks good enough. There is no visible pixelation. The viewing angles look good. Colors are not as punchy, neither do they stand out, but there is not much you can complain about this. It is bright enough to use under sunlight and harsh lighting, and there is a presence of adaptive brightness feature as well.
So, overall, it is an okay display.
Performance, Software, and Storage
The performance is the part which is make or break for budget phones. This phone packs a modest quad-core Helio A22 chipset. Paired with 2 GB RAM, the performance is as expected from this one.
Day to day tasks can run okay, but apps like Messenger, Instagram and YouTube can take a while to open up. Multi-tasking is not very good, and switching between apps is not seamless. With multiple tabs in your messenger, you can notice the sluggishness. In addition, it cannot keep the apps open in the background for very long.
As for games, you cannot play high-end games all that well. You won’t be able to play Asphalt 9 as it’s not even available in the PlayStore for this phone. However, PUBG is playable in the lowest settings and with a very minimal amount of lags and stutters. Normal low-end games can run okay, though.
The phone runs on the latest Android Pie, and so the User Experience is pretty smooth. I feel like the less RAM is the bottleneck for the device to perform as smooth as it can.
As for the storage, there is only 16 GB onboard, but since there is a microSD card slot to expand the memory, that’s all well.
Camera
On the camera front, it has single cameras of 13 MP, both at the back and front. And the images from the camera are what you would expect from a phone of this caliber.
Washed out colors
1 of 5
Most of the aspects on this one are good enough, but the colors appear a bit washed out. The color accuracy is there, but it’s not as punchy as I’d like it to be. The amount of details in the photos are acceptable, and definitely social media worthy. But don’t expect anything super high-quality, though. Let’s just say it packs enough details for you to take photos of your college notes and send it.

The autofocus takes a slight amount of time to get the subject in focus, but besides that, it works alright. The HDR mode does a good job, too. As good as you can expect from a phone at this price. In this mode, colors tend to be slightly punchier than normal ones.

However, there does not seem to be any other features on the camera. Maybe, because ours was a review unit we received pre-launch, it only has this “Normal Mode” option. Because, if not, the modes selection is just pointless!

For nighttime images, you can’t expect very much either. The images will come out grainy, and won’t pack enough details. But this is actually somewhat better than I expected it to be.

The selfie camera has the same story. It clicks social media worthy pictures, but nothing that you can brag about. You might be able to see a good amount of details when the subject is up close, but the same can’t be said for every situation. Like I said, there seems to be no portrait mode – not even a software-based one. So, no bokeh pictures for you.
Video quality seems okay. Not something that you can vlog or such, but just good enough to capture some moments for you to watch later. And definitely post it in your social media.
Battery
As for the battery, you get a 3100 mAh unit, which is typical for a phone at this price. Due to the power efficient chipset, and a low-res screen, it will last for a day easily with your day to day usage. There is no Fast Charging of any kind, and it cannot be expected either. The phone takes nearly 2 hours to charge fully from an empty battery.
Verdict
Bottom line, for a $100 phone, this seems it is a device of decent value. There are very few options in this price range, and most of them revolve around Android Go. And you know, there are limitations to Android Go as well. But with this, you can get the full Android experience, which will not be very disappointing. Of course, you will have to cut some corners, but the price you pay for it is good enough.
Having said that, if you could add a few bucks, you can get phones like Galaxy M10, Realme C1, and Redmi 6 which are literally better in every aspect.
This is the 8th piece on the yet un-launched Galaxy S10 trio. And yet, the leaks keep on coming. So, what we know till now for certain? The smartphone trio will share the stage with an unnamed foldable galaxy smartphone. The event is taking place on the 20th of February, and there will be a total of three Galaxy S10 devices. Take a look at the newly found leaked information:

Cameras
Starting off with the interesting bit that everyone is eagerly waiting for, the cameras. Samsung flagships have had their fair share of great cameras, and if Samsung wants their 10th-anniversary flagships to succeed, their cameras sure need to be the best. Following which, a few details on the subject have surfaced.
Reports claim the new phones will get a 10MP f/1.9 selfie camera, with 4k video recording capabilities. The selfie shooter will come with dual-pixel AF feature and will include optical stabilization. There is also an 8MP f/2.2 sensor on the bigger Galaxy S10+ model for better depth sensing.
As for the back, all three phones will share a 16MP f/2.2 ultrawide fixed-focus sensor with a FOV of 123 degrees. The primary sensor will be a 12MP f/1.5 dual aperture lens with OIS and a 77-degree FOV. Furthermore, the S10 and S10+ will also feature a third 12MP f/2.4 telephoto lens with a 45-degree FOV and OIS.
Slow-motion has also been improved and is now 2x longer compared to its direct predecessor. The camera software has also been improved, with 10 scene optimizers added bumping the total number to 30 scenes. Apart from that, you are greeted with Live focus feature, color point effect, spin effect and zoom effect.
Battery
As for the battery, the Galaxy S10+ will come with a relatively huge 4100mAh unit. Followed by a 3400mAh for the normal Galaxy S10 and a 3100mAh for the Galaxy S10e. All of them will need a USB-C cable to top up or your usual wireless charging will also do. The wireless power share technology is also present on all three phones.
Display
The biggest of the bunch sports a 6.3-inch QHD+ (3040×1440 pixel) display. The regular sized S10 will feature a 6.1″ QHD+ (3040×1440 pixel) panel while the S10e gets a 5.8″ FHD+ (2280×1080 resolution) screen. All of these displays are based on the Infinity O concept.
Front
They are based on, what Samsung calls Dynamic AMOLED technology, which could just be a marketing term. It also features HDR+ support and a maximum brightness of around 800 nits. The S10 and S10+ also get Gorilla Glass 6 protection and Ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner. The S10e has to make do with Gorilla Glass 5 and side mounted fingerprint scanner.
Storage, RAM and Color Option
The S10+ will be available in 6GB/128GB, and 8GB/512GB version in Prism White, Prism Green and Prism Black color options. There is also a third 12GB/1TB version available with Luxurious Ceramic coating in both Black and White.
The S10 only gets 6GB/128GB and 8GB/ 512GB versions with color options limited to Prism White, Prism Green and Prism Black. Finally, the S10e comes in 6GB/128GB and 8GB/256GB variants, with color options of Prism White, Prism Green, Prism Black and a yet unseen Canary Yellow.
Extras
The whole squad will come with Samsung’s new OneUI out of the box. Underneath it, the phones will run on Android Pie. You get AKG headphones, as always. The phones will run on Exynos 9820 chip based on the 8nm architecture. All of these phones are IP68 certified and if you want to check out the expected pricing, head over here.
A few days ago, Huawei launched the P Smart 2019. And keeping a few days gap, the Chinese smartphone giant recently announced the Huawei Y7 Pro 2019, which is almost the same smartphone, with downgraded internals and at a lower price. The smartphone was first seen in Huawei’s Vietnamese page and on Lazda, a Vietnamese online retailer.
Going by the specs, the newly announced Huawei Y7 Pro 2019 flaunts a tall 6.26″ LCD panel with an HD+ resolution. The display on the handset also features a tiny water drop style notch just like the Vivo V11 and Oppo F9.
Despite the vast similarities of the handset with the P Smart 2019, it packs different specifications when it comes to the internals. The Y9 Pro 2019 comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 SoC, with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable storage. This one actually gets an even bigger battery, a 4000mAh unit.
The back is comprised of zero fingerprint sensors and dual camera setup. The primary sensor is a 13MP f/1.8 shooter while a 2MP lens helps with depth sensing. In addition to them, there is a 16MP selfie camera fitted into the notch at the front.
The absence of a fingerprint sensor on a smartphone in today’s date is quite a bummer. But to console the user, Huawei has added Face Unlock feature, which is quite on the trend these days. The device runs on Android Oreo with EMUI 8.2 while connectivity includes 2.4GHz Wi-Fi receiver and Bluetooth 4.2.
As previously mentioned, Vietnamese locals can buy the Huawei Y7 Pro 2019 from the online retailer Lazada starting January 5. Pricing starts at ₫3,990,000 which is approximately 20k Nepali or $175. It is available in two colors, Black or Blue and Huawei is offering a Bluetooth Speaker as a gift for early adopters. The Huawei Y7 Pro will soon be launching in Nepal at an attractive price.
Seems like every manufacturer is gearing up for foldable phones. Who can blame them, the saturated smartphone market needs something to get the consumers excited again. And seems like foldable phones are the way to go. Joining the party is Nubia, confirming its first foldable smartphone, scheduled for launch, this MWC.
The MWC is the world’s biggest smartphone event of the year. So, it’s only justifiable that smartphone makers will attempt to make a mark. The event will take place in Barcelona with an expected attendance of over 70,000 visitors. The audience list includes Journalists from over 160 counties and over 1200 speakers.
The teaser form Nubia reads, “Flex Your Life”, while details about the phone remain unknown. We are not sure if it is even a phone, all we are certain of is a flexible device. And yet, having seen the teaser from Samsung for their foldable phone, while Xiaomi and Huawei also seem pretty interested. Seems like foldable smartphones are making a proper comeback.
In a past event (IFA 2018), Nubia did show off a flexible wearable prototype. The device dubbed Nubia Alpha is pretty unique in its own way. On the contrary, what Nubia brings to the table this time remains to be seen. Take a look at the teaser below:
Nubia entered the Nepali market in 2018, with a moto “Mobile Photography Expert”. Since then, Nepali mobile photography enthusiasts have been quite attracted to Nubia smartphones. The brand is renowned for its innovations in the mobile industry, the Nubia Red Magic Mars standing as an example. Furthermore, the gaming flagship is expected to launch in Nepal soon.
After the success of Huawei Nova 3 and Nova 3i in the Nepali smartphone market, Huawei has launched the all-new Huawei Nova 4. The Nova 4 is the latest iteration of the Nova-series from the company. And it was launched only over a month ago in the international market. Let’s find more about the Huawei Nova 4 along with its official price in Nepal here.
Huawei Nova 3 Overview
The Huawei Nova 4 was the first phone in Nepal to feature a punch-hole display. It had a tiny circular cut-out on the display to house the front camera. Most of the mid-range and flagship these days follow the trend of punch-hole display.
Design and Display
The Nova 4 has the same design and build to the Nova 3 -glass body with two-tone gradient coloring. But we can see more color options on this one. On that body, it flaunts a large 6.41″ bezel-less punch-hole Full HD+ display. Despite the popularity of in-display fingerprint sensors on high-level mid-rangers, this one sticks with a traditional rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. But that’s all well, they are faster and I like it more anyway.
Camera
The Nova 4 still packs 4 cameras. But this time, it has a single selfie camera and a triple camera setup at the back. The triple camera setup comprises of a 48 MP primary lens with f/1.8 aperture, a 16 MP wide-angle lens with f/2.2 aperture and a 2 MP depth sensor. But this variant is not available in Nepal. We will only get the variant with another camera setup comprising of 20 MP + 16 MP + 2 MP. The rear camera setup does well under properly lit condition but the image processing on this one is slow. The front features a 25 MP selfie camera. And of course, these cameras will be AI integrated which phone companies love so much these days.
Performance and Memory
Inside, the phone runs on Huawei’s Kirin 970 chipset with 8 GB RAM. The RAM on this device is based on LPDDR4X technology. There is 128GB memory on board and you can’t expand it as there’s no microSD card slot. While the performance will still be snappy, I felt that they should’ve gone with the latest Kirin 980 instead. guess, they were trying to save their beast of a chipset for flagships only. In our review, we didn’t encounter any hiccups while using the phone, and we even managed to play PUBG at its high setting without facing any issue.
Battery and others
On the software end, the device comes with EMUI 9.0.1 based on Android Pie. We found the custom skin well-optimized thus resulting in a smoother experience. But the UI does com with bloatware. For security, the device comes with a capacitative fingerprint sensor mounted on the back. It also supports Face unlock. The phone comes with a 3750 mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging.
Huawei Nova 4 Specifications:
Design: Glass body, two-tone gradient coloring
Display: 6.41″ Full HD+ IPS LCD display with Punch-hole
The Huawei Nova 4 is now available in select smartphone retail shops all across Nepal at a price of Rs 64,900. However, finding stock of Huawei Nova 4 is really hard these days.
Samsung is all set to launch its first foldable smartphone on February 20. The Youtube teaser didn’t reveal much and yet has managed to get us pretty excited. Take a look at the video below:
So, are you excited for the Samsung unpacked event? The phone has very well managed to be a mystery at this point, we do not even have an exact name. The rumor mill is filled with speculations of the device’s name. Viable options among those would be the Galaxy F, Galaxy X, Galaxy Flex or Galaxy Fold.
While the smartphone industry has reached a point of saturation, most believe foldable phones to be the next big thing. That and 5G connectivity seem very promising. With the decreasing sales figures for smartphones in general, many manufacturers are counting on them to drive sales.
It’s not just Samsung that’s in the race, Chinese companies have already announced their plans of launching foldable phones too. This might not be a surprise for most invested in the tech world. The Royale FlexPai has launched and is the first flexible phone, albeit a bit rushed and unpolished.
OMG! It seems like Samsung has shown us the foldable phone in its newest video which it seems to have deleted now. Watch the video below now and see the screenshots from the video in the next tweet showing Galaxy F/Fold.#GalaxyFold#GalaxyF#Samsung#FoladablePhonepic.twitter.com/oRYyuVoDWw
Back to the actual phone, it will come with a 7-inch large foldable AMOLED display and another secondary 4-inch panel. So, for unfolded usage, the 7-inch will take the lead while on folded mode, and use the smaller display normally. The video isn’t solid evidence of the Galaxy Flex, but it’s still something.
Internally, it’s expected to come with an Exynos 9820 or the Snapdragon 855, with around 512GB of internal storage. It is also said to come with two batteries, each with a capacity of 2,190mAh for a total of 4,380mAh. The phone is expected to cost around $1800 and will launch alongside their new Galaxy S10 series.
Digital Kagaj is something that looks more like a concept of a product for something bigger. This is something that is very simple and minimalistic and doesn’t do much. It is as advertised – just a digital paper that you, well…write on, nothing more.
Design and Display
As this is something that does not do much, the design is also pretty simple. It’s this big black slab of plastic material with some thickness to it. It looks like a mini black-board of sorts, the ones that used to be in schools. And the functionality is also about pretty much the same.
It is made out of all plastic and might give the impression of a tablet on first glance. The button on the top makes it look more like a tablet. But let me assure you, it is nothing but a slab to write on. The button on top acts as an eraser of sorts – it is a delete button. There’s a slot to keep the stylus at the back and a battery slot right beside it. However, this one doesn’t have any kind of rechargeable feature. This is just your regular battery that promises up to 100,000 writings on it.

Battery slot
stylus slot
The construction looks pretty durable too even though it’s all plastic. It does flex quite a bit when pressure is applied, but not to the point it will break. Of course, if you do it forcefully, it will break…but this means that it can handle your everyday abuse. It is also pretty lightweight, weighing less than 200 grams. So, very easy to carry, too.
The stylus looks like a cheap pen and is very lightweight too. But the stylus is nothing but a pen-shaped plastic, anyway. As it has no internal mechanism or anything. You can also easily write with any pointed object, like your nails, or something like that. So, even if you lose the stylus, there’s nothing to worry about. And this device can only write in green. There are no color options available, for now. But if it did have them, that would be quite interesting.
The display is LCD. And by the display, I mean the part which you write on. It is not a “real display”. However, it is pressure sensitive, so, you can apply different levels of pressure to write in various styles too. The display is resistant to bright lights, so, you can also use it in the sun. But due to the lack of any kind of screen lighting mechanism, it cannot be used all that much in dark environments.
Also, this thing is not water-proof, so, be careful in the rain…or just keep it away from water.
Usage and Performance
Talking about the usage and such, I have already said quite a few times that it doesn’t do much. After all, it’s technically a paper. So, this is something you primarily use to pass the time. I, mostly played “Tic-tac-toe” on it, just for the heck of it. And while we used to waste paper for that, now, we don’t need to!
But this is also a good way to get kids engaged in stuff. You can teach them alphabets, or numbers, calculations or drawings and stuff. If your kids like to just scribble on paper, this will also be a relief. It will reduce the paper wastage and be less messy around the house, too. Plus, it is a great alternative to getting kids hooked to mobile phones from an early age.
This can, also, be a good utility for students. It can serve as a way to do rough calculations or scribble notes in rough for memorizing. It can come in handy while doing maths, as you don’t have to keep doing it in the corners of your notebook, or do it on the table and rub it off later. Plus, this can be used in small restaurants to take orders from customers without wasting paper!
For office workers, it can be a way to keep track of everyday tasks. It is a better alternative to those sticky notes which you have to stick on your walls and look untidy. But for those of us, who work only on their computers, or laptops, this may not be very useful. For people like us, we even have sticky notes in our laptops itself. So…this is for those, who are not on their computers 24 / 7.
In addition, this is a good tool for designers as well. If you need to provide a rough layout for the designs, this is a good way to do so. And if you like to simply doodle on, then, you can do that too.
The major drawback is the lack of an eraser. There is a delete button, but when you press it, everything on it will be deleted. If this only had an eraser or a one-step undo button, it would be much more practical for designers and artists as well. And not only them, but it would be practical for everyone. Because, if you just make a single mistake, then, you have to delete everything! And that is very impractical…so, an eraser would make a big difference!
Also, this one has got no storage of any kind. It is only a simple writing page. You cannot store anything in it, you have to take pictures of it. There is a lock button on the bigger model, which when triggered can prevent accidentally erasing the contents as well. So, if you are doing something important, you can use that.
Conclusion
Digital Kagaz sizes
1 of 2
8.5-inch model
10-inch model
This Digital Kagaj is priced at Rs.1950 for the bigger 10-inch model and Rs.1450 for the smaller 8.5-inch model. Maybe, they could have included a storage mechanism, but that would make it more expensive and a different device altogether.
However, this is a very good concept, with the objective of “Say Goodbye to Paper“. And what I think is, this is still in its starting phase. You can purchase it commercially, but what I want to see is a full-fledged digital copy with storage, so that you can write notes on it, and can replace your whole notebook. And we can save more paper!
But for now, as it stands, this is also a great product for casual usage. It is a great concept, and I like it quite a bit. What do you think of it, do let us know. And if you can think of any other practical usages, do let us know that too!
On the camera front, it has single cameras of 13 MP, both at the back and front. And the images from the camera are what you would expect from a phone of this caliber.
