Xiaomi Redmi 3 Pro Review: Budget friendly meets the premium

Since its establishment, Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi has taken budget phones to a whole new level. Following the footsteps of its predecessor Redmi 1 and Redmi 2, the recently launched Redmi 3 pro brings upgraded features like the fingerprint sensor, huge 4100mah battery and an impressive metal body for an asking price of Rs. 23,500. But Specs are not everything, so let’s find out in our review if this phone is worth all your money?

Design

The Redmi 3 Pro showcases full metal body, which gives it a premium finish. Even though the metal finish makes the phone slightly slippery, it can be used easily with one hand thanks to its compact form factor. The phone feels light in hand despite the huge battery inside it. The quick and responsive fingerprint scanner is on the back and is easily reachable by the index finger.

Display

The Redmi 3 pro features a 5-inch 720p IPS display, which is bright but nothing out of the ordinary about it. The display is very much visible under sunlight. Apart from the good viewing angles, it also features a read mode, which only makes the display a bit warmer and easy on the eyes.

Hardware and Performance

The Redmi 3 pro uses the 64-bit octa-core Snapdragon 616 chip clocked at 1.5 GHz. With 3GB RAM onboard, the phone is quick, handles multitasking with ease and the gaming performance is surprisingly good. But, the phone gets warm while playing heavy games for more than 10mins, and then you will notice dropped frame rates and lags. If you are looking for a better performing phone at this price bracket, you could get the Redmi Note3.  Furthermore, it includes 32 GB of ample expandable storage via the microSD slot, but bear in mind that it’s not a dedicated slot but rather is a dual Hybrid slot.

Software

Redmi 3 Pro comes with Xiaomi’s own MIUI 7.2, which is built on top of Android 5.1. If you are not aware of MIUI, it is just like Apple’s iOS, doesn’t include an app drawer, i.e. all the installed apps sit on the home screen. MIUI offers lots of customization option that include a wide variety of themes, and other features like one handed mode. Though the UI is packed with features, it also includes bloatware that is pretty much redundant.

Camera

The rear camera in Redmi 3 Pro is decent with 13 megapixels that include flashlight and autofocus. The images lack details while the color reproduction is average. The front camera is a 5 megapixels shooter and the images taken by the front camera is not that good but will be enough for social uploads. In addition, the camera clicks pictures really fast and the camera app includes tons of filters and features like HDR, panorama and face detection.

Battery

The redmi 3 pro sports a huge 4,100 mAh non-removable battery with fast charging technology, undoubtedly one of the best features of the smartphone. The battery easily lasts a full day even with heavy usage and it takes just over three hours to fully charge the phone.

Connectivity

The redmi 3 pro has dual SIM slot (GSM+GSM/CDMA); one of which is a hybrid slot (the slot can be used as an SIM slot or a microSD slot). It features other connectivity options such as WIFI, Bluetooth 4.1 and GPS. In addition, the redmi 3 pro has infrared blaster, which enables the phone to act as a remote for TVs and other devices.

Verdict:

Xiaomi has definitely upped their game in the midrange market with the introduction of their budget friendly Redmi 3 pro. The battery as well as the built quality and design is solid and Xiaomi has really set the standard for mid-range phones with the Redmi 3 Pro. However, the only place where the phone is lacking is in its ordinary display and its low-quality camera images. So, the phone is not recommended for people who like taking quality pictures with their phones. Having said that, Redmi 3 Pro will not disappoint in performance, and the built is very sturdy and good looking. With 64-bit Snapdragon chip, doing every function smoothly, the phone is a great offer for the market price when compared to other smartphones at the same price range.

Facebook Messenger now Supports Text Messaging on Android

Texting has been a major thing now, instead of calling people, we text them and notify about stuff or just for a flat breakup. On android, the trend of text messaging apps has been really overwhelming and there are quiet few notable texting apps that enhance your messaging experiences like Textra, Mighty Text, Google Messenger, Chomp, and Evolve. On such a saturated market for texting apps, today Facebook has made a  bold move launching the integration of text messaging feature baked into the Messenger app for Android.

Facebook is trying hard to make its users stick with the platform and has been heading towards supremacy when it comes to messaging. It’s not a bad thing that Facebook wants to be your everything as long as we get an outstanding platform for our daily needs. Not needing to have two apps for the sake of both texting(in general) is a relief for me. Facebook Messenger already provides many cool features like Uber, payment options, bots, mini games which have made Messenger one of the most versatile instant messaging app.

Facebook Messenger

It is optional if you want to want to make Facebook Messenger as your default SMS app. Your instant messaging thread will be colored blue as default although Messenger has the option to change them and the SMS threads will be colored purple as default. Besides this, you get the cool floating chat head feature for your SMS as well. You won’t be able to use Messenger’s other features as of now but you’ll be able to send your favorite Facebook stickers. But in the future, it is certain that we’ll see bots and other features on the SMS front as well.  Talking about privacy, Facebook has made sure that they won’t keep a record of the SMS and everything occurs locally on your phone.

From today, SMS feature has been available for various countries and until Friday, the update will be available worldwide. Standard SMS charges do apply here. Facebook is also trying to integrate this feature on iOS  but it doesn’t allow permissions to access text messages. So it might be in a long run that we see this feature on iOS.

Nepalese brand Colors Mobile has officially launched a new budget-oriented smartphone, Colors Pride P50 in the Nepali market. Priced just at Rs. 7,495, it offers the latest operating system — Android Marshmallow 6.0 out of the box. This is one of the few phones in this price range to come equipped with Android Marshmallow.

Detailed Specification of Colors Pride P50

Colors Pride P50 sports a 5-inch display with a resolution of 854×480 pixels, which is not too many pixels in a 5-inch phone, but it is completely acceptable for its price tag. The phone is powered by a 1.3Ghz quad-core processor (MediaTek MT6580M) and Mali MP2 GPU. In terms of memory, it has 1GB of RAM and 8GB of onboard storage which can be further expanded via a dedicated microSD card slot up to 32GB.

Connectivity wise, the Pride P50 has dual SIM support with 3G support, WiFI, GPS, Bluetooth, FM radio, microUSB, and 3.5mm headphone jack. Just like the Elite E15 and Pride P80, the Pride P50 also comes with a data saving feature called Colors Lite. With this feature turned on, the company claims that a user can save up to 50% of data. It has 5MP rear camera with LED flash, and a 2MP front camera. The Pride P50 has a 2200mAh battery.

Talking at the launch Event, the CEO of Teletalk Pvt. Ltd. (authorized distributor of Colors mobile) said ““Here we are back again with P50, which is the biggest and best smartphone with the latest android operating system in such price bracket. With the apt specifications that make life easier with best features, we have lots of hope with this new product in this line, with the sleek and stylish design like no other product in Nepalese Market”

The main highlight of the phone is its running Android Marshmallow 6.0. While most of the phones are still running on Android Lollipop 5.1, to have the latest OS in the Pride P50 is a bonus. The Android marshmallow 6.0 brings plenty of features such as doze mode that increases the battery life of the phone.

Samsung Galaxy A5, A7 2016 gets a price cut in Nepal

Samsung Electronics Nepal has slashed the prices of recently launched metal clad phones, the Galaxy A5 and Galaxy A7 2016. The Galaxy A5 is now priced at Rs. 41,900 (previously priced at Rs.48,490) and the Galaxy A7 is now available for Rs. 50,900 (previously priced at Rs. 55,490).

The Samsung Galaxy A5 and A7 offer excellent build quality thanks to a full metal body reminiscent of Apple iPhones. The Galaxy A5 has a 5.2-inch display and the Galaxy A7 with a bigger 5.7-inch display. Both these phones offer vivid AMOLED display with 1080P resolution and Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection. Powering the phones is a 64bit cortex A53 octacore processor with a maximum frequency of 1.6Ghz. While the Galaxy A5 boasts a modest 2GB RAM and 16GB onboard storage, the Galaxy A7 comes equipped with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage.

Samsung Galaxy A7 2016

Camera wise, both the phone offers 13MP rear camera with f/1.9 aperture, OIS, and LED flash and the front houses a 5MP front facing camera with f/1.9 aperture. There is a fingerprint scanner that’s embedded in the home button. Both these phones run on Android 5.1.1 with TouchWiz UI layered on top.

Verdict:

The first and the very reason you’ll buy the A5 and A7 is for its look, build quality and the screen it offers and despite that, for a normal consumer there might be a lot of compromises with this phone; for example its price. Despite Samsung claiming that the Samsung Galaxy A5, Galaxy A7 2016 Launched in Nepal is a mid-range, the phone’s cost is above average to what we Nepalese customers are used to. But taking into consideration of all the specs, it might be feasible to have that price tag, but there are still other better options like the Nexus 5X, OnePlus Two and even the Galaxy S5 for what it offers. Also as a phone that is released on 2016, both of these phones run on 5.1.1 lollipop, this is where people cringe over Samsung phones. Although Samsung has promised the Marshmallow update, it is a long way till we get it for this particular variant.

Samsung Galaxy A5 2016

And if you’re wondering what else you could be missing on such an expensive phone, let me remind you there’s no LED notification. So, you never know if you have a new notification and you have to unlock your phone every time to check for notifications. Also, the phone is running on last year’s mid-range chipset Exynos 7580 which is only a very decent performer but results in a great battery life. Overall, if you want an average performing phone with a great AMOLED screen, flagship build and a sturdy design this might be the phone for you.
