Xiaomi Mi A2 launched under Android One program and Snapdragon 660 SoC

The much-awaited Xiaomi Mi A2 is here and it’s everything you hoped for. The Chinese manufacturer delivered the Android One based smartphone today in Spain. The smartphone is basically the Mi 6X with a different software experience. The Mi A2 comes with better specs, better camera, and a fairly similar UI compared to last year’s Mi A1.

The first thing that you notice is the Snapdragon 660 processor, which is a huge improvement over the Snapdragon 625 found in Mi A1. The custom Kryo cores and the 14nm process ensure good performance and minimum power consumption. The Adreno 512 GPU also complements the CPU very well.

The display, on the other hand, is a 5.99″ FHD+ panel with resolutions of 2160×1080 (18:9 aspect ratio). Xiaomi does love to brag about its LPDDR4x RAM types, and the A2 surely gets the same. The smartphone comes in three variants, one with 4GB/32GB, the other with 4GB/64GB and lastly a more premium 6GB/128GB version.

Like the Mi A1, the A2 also comes with a dual camera setup. The camera has obviously been improved, with a 12MP f/1.7 sensor aided by a 20MP f/1.75 lens. Xiaomi claims it will provide a much better camera experience, including better bokeh effects and brighter shots in dim light conditions.

The front camera is also another area where Xiaomi seems to have improved. The 20MP selfie cam is now AI enabled and can capture bokeh selfies.

The star feature of the Mi A2 remains the Pure Android experience, which was one of the defining features of the Mi A1, and also one of the main factors why the Mi A2 received such huge success.

However, the most disappointing feature on the Mi A2 has to be the size of the battery, which is a 3010mAh. It does get Quick Charge 3.0 though.

Xiaomi Mi A2 Price & Availability

The smartphone is all set to launch in Nepal as well, although availability and pricing are yet to be announced. What we do know is you can get the Mi A2 in Blue, Black, and Gold color options.

Samsung and LG makes new shotgun strategy to rebuild their business

Samsung and LG are the two biggest Korean smartphone companies which have been providing premium gadgets. However, they have been suffering from huge sales loss due to the rise in sales of Chinese smartphone in the market. Thus to rebuild their business, Samsung and LG have adopted a new shotgun strategy.

The shotgun approach is a strategy where a company aims for a larger audience to sell their products or services. Samsung and LG have mainly focused on high-end gadgets. And their sales mostly depend on their feature phones. Although these companies do have budget-friendly smartphones, they didn’t offer good features until recently. So now, they have shifted their focus from high-end models, to compete with other brands. They also plan on launching more models in every segment to target as many consumers as possible.

There was a time when Samsung, Nokia, and LG used to leverage the smartphone market with their models. Many companies even tried to approach Apple’s plan to focus and launch smartphones with high-end specs but failed. However, in the present context, the Chinese smartphones have dominated the market with midrange smartphones.

Rather than an expensive featured smartphone, a customer usually goes for a budget-friendly smartphone with better features. Many companies like Xiaomi, Huwaei are providing a wide variety of budget smartphones with many features. So it’s obvious why people prefer them more resulting in an increase in their sales drastically.

According to sources, Huawei has shipped over six million units of Huawei P20 since its launch in June. While Xiaomi has shipped over a million units of Xiaomi Mi 8 in its first 18 days of sales.

Corning brings Gorilla Glass 6 with better survival drops

When we hear that a smartphone display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass, we get a hint that the device has a strong display. Corning has been a top name when it comes to display protection. Today, Corning has come up with another version of Gorilla Glass, which is its sixth version! The Corning Gorilla 6, as said by the engineers, has better resistance to falls and better survives drops.

Further, sources add that the Gorilla Glass 6 can withstand twice as many drops as the Gorilla Glass 5. How it is done is by its new glass that has a different chemical composition than Gorilla Glass 5’s. Hence, because of that composition, the company claims that the new version can withstand more than Gorilla Glass 5.

During tests, this sixth version of Gorilla Glass is said to have survived 15 drops from the distance of 1 meter before breaking. Thus, claims are that it is made from a completely re-engineered process, which makes it easier to increase the level of compression.

“Corning Gorilla Glass 6 improves upon Gorilla Glass 5 by surviving drops from higher heights, but, more importantly, has been engineered to survive multiple drops. This enables the Gorilla Glass 6 to be more resistant to damage.,” -John Bayne (Corning Gorilla Glass vice president and general manager).

According to sources, Corning Gorilla has been designed into more than 6 Billion devices by more than 45 brands.

However, this new version of Gorilla Glass is in production now and it is being evaluated by multiple customers. After the tests will be over, it may take several months for it to be out in the market.

About Corning Gorilla Glass

Corning Gorilla Glass was launched in September 2011. Since its establishment, it has been used by many companies as their choice for device manufacturers all over the world. It produces items for not only Mobile Consumer Electronics, but for Automotive and Architecture applications as well.

Well, with the launch, we have also been confirmed of the speculations about the AI enabled Kirin 970 chipset and the incorporation of the all-new GPU Turbo technology in the Nova 3. If Kirin 970 sounds familiar, it’s because that is the same chipset used in Huawei’s latest flagship, the P20 Pro. Combination the Kirin 970 with the latest GPU Turbo technology certainly makes things interesting.

Talking about the device itself, design-wise, Huawei has ensured glass build protected by 3D double curved glass on both sides. Similarly, the display is 6.3 inches with an unusual 19.5:9 aspect ratio and FHD+ resolution. Huawei hasn’t forgotten to place the infamous notch too that is home for the ambient light sensor, proximity, IR sensor and dual cameras.

Like the other phones in the Nova series, this one also has a good focus on cameras besides other things. It seems like the inclusion of 4 cameras is a tradition for Huawei as the Nova 3, like the Nova 2i, Y9 2018, etc features 4 cameras. But unlike the P20 Pro, the distribution goes, 2 cameras at the front and two cameras at the back. On the rear side, there is 24+16 MP f/1.8 dual cameras and upfront there are 24+2 MP sensors, both of which support AI features.

If you are awed with these, wait a little longer because there is more! The Nova 3 supports IR face unlock, it’s got 6GB of RAM at disposal and a decent 3,750 mAh battery. On top of that, there is the GPU Turbo technology that boosts the gaming performance. Other than that, there is 3D AR Emoji support, the latest version of EMUI, EMUI 8.2, etc.

Huawei Nova 3i launched with Kirin 710, GPU Turbo, 128GB storage & more

Huawei’s much-anticipated successor of last year’s Nova 2i is here. The new Huawei Nova 3i comes with a much-needed improvement in the processor department and better design choices that almost makes its predecessor look outdated.

The smartphone comes packed with the HiSilicon Kirin 710, that should give the Snapdragon 710 a run for its money. It comes paired with 4GB of RAM and an ample 128GB of internal storage. Yes, it supports expandable storage but since it’s a hybrid setup, the huge storage should satisfy most.

Just like the Nova 3 (a high-end variant of the Nova 3i), this one also comes with a 6.3″ 1080×2340 resolution minimum bezel IPS display with a notch. The 3340mAh battery should deliver acceptable charging intervals and it comes with fast charging as well.

The four cameras on the Huawei Nova 3i totals to a whopping 44MP, not that it has anything to do with anything. The back comes with a 16MP f/2.2 lens aided by a secondary 2MP depth sensor. It’s video capabilities max out at 1080p@30fps. For selfies, it has a 24MP + 2MP camera setup, with the later used again for depth.

As it’s a mid-range smartphone, it comes equipped with the basics. The headphone jack is present at the bottom alongside the fingerprint sensor at the back. 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, Gyro sensor, and a bunch of other necessary sensors also come packed inside the 7.6mm glass back body.

The phone runs on the Android 8.1 Oreo with EMUI 8.2 on top. Since we are talking about the software, the AI features of the interface are all here joined by the much awaited GPU Turbo mode out of the box. There are three color options that include the Black, White, and Iris Purple.

Nokia X5 goes official: Notched display and a dual camera on a budget

Since 2017, we have seen almost all the smartphone brands following the bandwagon of slimming the bezels. Since removing the bezels altogether had been a bigger challenge in the smartphone industry, most of the smartphone brands are opting to leave a notch to adjust the front camera, earpiece, and other necessary sensors. Started by Essential PH-1 phone and seconded by the iPhone X, this trend spread like a wildfire. And Nokia seems to be pretty much impressed with this concept in the recent days. A few months back, Nokia revealed the Nokia X6, which had a notch on its display. With a view to expanding its X-series, this time Nokia launched the Nokia X5 aka Nokia 5.1 Plus, which too comes with a notched display and dual camera setup at the back.

Nokia X5 comes in an all-alluring body in a thickness of 8mm and weighing 160 grams. The handset comes with an adorable 5.86-inch display with an infamous notch on the top. The notch is slightly wider than what we see on the Nokia X6, however, the region for this notch expansion has not yet been divulged. Talking about the resolution, the Nokia 5.1 Plus features an HD+ resolution in 19:9 aspect ratio.

Powering the phone is a MediaTek Helio P60 chipset accompanied by either 3GB or 4GB of RAM. Helio P60 is a powerful yet power efficient chipset, which can also be found on the Oppo F7, Oppo F7 Youth, and Oppo RealMe 1. When we review the Oppo F7, the performance offered by the chipset thoroughly impressed us. And we can expect a similar performance from the Nokia X5 too. Talking about the onboard storage, the base variant boasts a decent 32GB and the premium variant enjoys an ample 64GB.

In the photography department, the handset sports a dual camera setup at the back. Nokia had provided only a single camera on the Nokia 5.1 and Nokia 6.1 (Nokia 6 2018). But this time, the smartphone maker has tried to sprinkle a premium handset by providing dual camera on its budget handset. The setup embraces a primary camera of 13MP, f/2.0 supported by a 5MP secondary camera to inject the depth details in the portrait images. And for the selfies, Nokia has equipped an AI-powered 8MP camera on the front. The selfie shooter has the features like AI beauty, AI stickers, AI background blurring effect and dual-view shooting mode also known as ‘Bothie’. Bothie allows users to use the front camera and rear cameras at the same time. It basically embeds the subject information from both the cameras in a single photo. In addition, Nokia X5 will use this selfie shooter while unlocking the handset through the Face Unlock feature.

The Nokia X5 includes a 3060mAh battery and comes in three color variants: namely Blue, Black, and White. On the software side, the phone relishes the Stock or the unadulterated version of the Android Oreo. Google has also promised the Android Pistachio (V9) update to the handset and other regular software patches.
