Realme is gearing up to expand its smartphone lineup with the upcoming launch of the Realme Neo 7x 5G. This model could potentially be rebranded as the Realme 14 5G for global markets. Even if it’s true it won’t come as a surprise from Realme, as the brand has been using this strategy for some time. A prime example of this is Realme P1 Speed which is essentially a rebrand of Realme 13+. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at the leaked details and rumors surrounding the Realme Neo 7x 5G, including its specifications and expected price in Nepal.
Realme Neo 7x 5G Rumor Roundup
The Realme Neo 7x 5G has already appeared for pre-order on JD.com, a popular online shopping platform in China. It was also spotted on China’s TENAA certification site with the model number RMX5071, which suggests the confirmation of its official launch.
Design and Display
According to the TENAA listing, the Realme Neo 7x 5G will feature a 6.67-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels. The device will have dimensions of 163.15 x 75.65 x 7.97mm and weigh 194 grams. Additionally, it will include an in-display fingerprint scanner for added security.
Performance and Battery
Under the hood, the Neo 7x 5G will likely pack a 2.3GHz processor, most likely the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset. This octa-core processor consists of a Kyro Prime core (Cortex-A720) clocked at 2300 MHz, three Kryo Gold cores (Cortex-A720) at 2200 MHz, and four Kryo Silver cores (Cortex-A520) running at 1800 MHz, all built on a 4nm process.
Furthermore, the device will offer multiple RAM options, including 6GB, 8GB, 12GB, and 16GB, along with storage variants such as 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB.
For power, the phone will be powered by a 5,860mAh battery, with the typical capacity likely reaching 6,000mAh. Additionally, it will support 45W fast charging. The device will run on Realme UI 6, based on Android 14.
Camera and Rest
On the camera front, the Neo 7x 5G will feature a 16-megapixel selfie camera. The rear camera setup will include a 50-megapixel primary sensor paired with a 2-megapixel secondary lens. Other than that, the phone will come with a microSD card slot for expandable storage.

Realme Neo 7x 5G Availability
The company is expected to unveil the Neo 7x 5G later this month in China, with the Neo 7 SE likely launching alongside it. Furthermore, a Realme device with the model number RMX5070 has been spotted online, suggesting it could be the Realme 14 5G. Given the similarity to the RMX5071 (Neo 7x model number), it’s highly probable that the Realme 14 5G will be the global rebranded version of the Neo 7x. However, Realme has yet to share full details, including an official launch date, so we’ll need to wait for confirmation.
So today I have the recently launched OnePlus Nord 4 in for review. As expected, this OnePlus phone is a bit overpriced here in Nepal compared to India — but if you look at its overall specs — you’ll see that the Nord 4 is a pretty well-rounded midrange phone.
But there are definitely a few things OnePlus should have done better with this thing! Starting with the fact that OnePlus has finally settled by including cheap bloatware apps and recommendations in the UI just like Realme and OPPO phones. It’s… disappointing, I know! And I have a feeling, things are going to get even worse in the future unless the community speaks up about it! Now without any further ado, let’s dive into the review with a quick rundown of its specifications first.
OnePlus Nord 4 review: Specifications
Design and Build: 162.6 x 75 x 7.99 mm, 199.5 gm, IP65 rating
Anyway, other than the bloatware situation, I have loved using this device. First of all, I really like the fusion of this metal & glass back design. It looks so much different from the rest of the bunch! Actually, this phone reminds me of the Huawei P10 from 2017! Good old days!
You also get metal frames here, instead of the usual plastic you get on every midrange phone so that’s nice too! And because of this, the Nord 4 is a tad bit heavier and I really liked its overall heft. It has a premium feel!
But one thing you have to be super careful with the Nord 4 is with the handling. Because this phone is quite slippery and I have already dropped it like few times. Another problem with metal design phones is with the 5G reception. To solve this, OnePlus says they have used new antennas and technology that utilizes the metal back to amplify the signal. And during my time, I didn’t encounter any problems with the 4G and 5G connectivity!
Likewise, you get a basic IP65 dust and water resistance, but I am surprised to see OnePlus not including any kind of Gorilla Glass protection for the display! At this price, most phones come with Gorilla Glass Victus or Victus 2 Protection.
Display
6.74-inch 1.5K AMOLED panel
120Hz refresh rate, 2,150 nits (peak brightness)
Quality-wise, this display is quite good though. I love the fact that the bezels here are almost non-existent. The flat screen is a bonus for me since I play a lot of AAA games, and I don’t want accidental touches which you get with curved displays!
But there are a few things about Nord 4’s display that are not the most competitive. Like… even though the Nord 4 has a good enough 1100 nits of brightness in HBM, its screen is not as bright as the Realme GT 6T (review). And even Motorola Edge 50 Pro while using it outdoors. However, HDR playback on YouTube and streaming platforms works well here.
And the haptic feedback on the OnePlus Nord 4 is to die for. Like seriously. It has the most precise, tight feedback I have used on a mid-range device recently. The Realme GT 6T is somewhat close enough, but the vibration feedback you get here while using the alert slider, or in the UI here is something else. So if you are someone who types a lot, and sends a lot of messages and emails from your phone, you are going to have a good time interacting with the Nord 4’s display.
I do have to let you know that the fingerprint sensor is placed a bit lower, so you might have to get used to that. Also, the stereo speakers are not the most balanced, they are loud and do the job for you, but I’ve heard better!
Performance
Qualcomm Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 (4nm)
12/16GB RAM, 256/512GB storage (non-expandable)
Android 14 with OnePlus OxygenOS 14.1 on top
4 years of OS and 6 years of security updates
Anyway, another thing I like about this phone is the performance.
I mean, when I started using it, my first reaction was, wow this phone is fast!
I am also very impressed with the gaming results. You can play PUBG at around 85 – 90 fps, even games like Genshin Impact play smoothly with good stability. And the best thing is, this phone does not heat up or throttle while gaming for a longer time.
It does get warm after like 30 minutes into games like Genshin Impact, but I have noticed that the heat is not localized in one area. And it gets dissipated around the chassis. Plus, since metal is a good conductor of heat, the phone cools down relatively quickly too.
Even while running demanding benchmarks, I recorded a max of 43°C on the Nord 4 while something like the Realme GT 6T with the same Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chipset, would reach 45 – 46°C easily. OnePlus has been clever about this because it seems like they have throttled the performance a little when the phone starts to heat up. This does not affect the gaming performance so much, but you will get slightly lower benchmark numbers on the Nord 4 than other 7+ Gen 3 phones.
What about the software?
But in real life,you won’t find even a hint of stutter on the Nord 4 while using the UI, multitasking, or playing games. OnePlus has also promised 4 years of OS and 6 years of security updates which is even better than what Samsung promises in their mid-range phones.
Cameras
Dual camera setup at the back
(50MP main, 8MP ultrawide)
16MP selfie camera (hole-punch cutout)
OnePlus has downgraded the main sensor this time (IMX890 vs LTY-600) but I don’t know if it’s the high-end image processor at work, the images don’t have a downgrade in quality.
Comparing it with the Realme GT 6T, I am happy to report that the Nord 4 did not disappoint. The details are there and the dynamic range is well preserved too. I wouldn’t say OnePlus does better than Realme but it competes quite well.
In fact, I found the colors to be more digestible on the Nord 4 than the GT 6T. Or even the Moto Edge 50 Pro for that matter.
Daytime
1 of 12
When it comes to ultrawide images, they are nothing to write home about with okay details and slightly worse dynamic range than the primary images.
Ultrawide
1 of 5
The only thing I missed while using the Nord 4 is the lack of a telephoto lens! Yes, the digitally cropped 2x portraits from it look nice enough, but it just doesn’t compete with a dedicated zoom lens. Like that 3x lens on the Edge 50 Pro.
Selfies
1 of 4
Sometimes the punchy colors on Motorola do make the portraits look a bit overbearing, but most of the time the 3x portraits from Motorola look more appealing!
Night
1 of 4
And if you are someone who loves taking selfies and selfie videos, I have bad news for you. First, most selfies from the Nord 4 appear a bit pale, and second, it can only record 1080p 30 fps selfie videos, which if you compare it with Motorola’s 4K selfies, you can see Moto can provide rich color processing with a hint of contrast that looks good to my eyes.
And videos?
From the back camera though, you can click up to 4k 60 fps videos, and EIS works well to stabilize the video. OnePlus does need to tone down the contrast a bit with updates, but other than that the 4K videos are workable.
But hold on.
I recently compared the Nord 4’s cameras with the POCO X7 Pro (review), and I was quite shocked to see that its camera quality has actually gotten worse with updates. Especially in terms of things like highlight management and color consistency. So I hope OnePlus can undo its mistakes with a few more updates.
Battery
5,500 mAh battery (100W wired charging)
No power adapter inside the box
Lastly, another best thing about the Nord 4 has to be its battery life! Like with most OnePlus phones, you get a big 5,500 mAh battery and the screen time I’ve been getting here is superb. Even using the phone at constant 120Hz, I am getting about 7.5 to 8 hours of screen on time – that too on intensive use!
And when I am home all day watching videos, the SOT would go around 9 hours or more! Even when the battery is about to die, the 100W charger that comes with the phone is super fast! It gets the phone from 0-100% within 30 minutes.
OnePlus Nord 4 review: Conclusion
So, overall, to sum up my experience, I had a pretty good time using the OnePlus Nord 4! I believe this is one of the safest midrange phones to get right now under NPR 70,000 in Nepal. Even though I completely agree that OnePlus Nepal could’ve done a much better job in terms of the price.
I love its fast fluid performance, interacting with the display is great thanks to the excellent haptics, you get an all-day excellent battery life, and it is easily the best-looking phone in its class. Overall, a pretty well-balanced phone!
But if the camera is your topmost priority and you like to click a lot of selfies and portraits, you should definitely go with the Honor 200 (review). Since that one has a dedicated 2.5x telephoto lens for excellent zoom and portrait shots. Not just that but the Honor 200 has a better set of cameras overall compared to the Nord 4.
Hamro Patro is set to introduce its own OTT (Over-the-Top) streaming service, bringing Nepali films to its platform. Sudina Gautam, Hamro Patro’s Fintech Operations Director, confirmed the company’s plan to acquire and stream Nepali movies. This article will discuss everything about the Hamro Patro’s latest OTT Service
Hamro Patro Enters the OTT Market
Film Acquisition and Royalties
The platform will buy films from producers and implement a royalty-based model, where earnings will be distributed based on the number of views each film receives. However, It remains uncertain whether existing subscribers will gain access to the OTT service or if Hamro Patro will introduce a separate subscription model.
Platform Integration vs. Separate App
Hamro Patro has not confirmed whether the streaming service will be integrated into the existing app or launched as a standalone OTT platform. A similar strategy was previously seen with Hamro Pay, which started within the main app but later became a separate service.
The new OTT service will compete with Netflix and domestic platforms like Cinemaghar and Kantipur Cinemas. However, Hamro Patro holds a significant advantage with its 10 million+ user base, providing a strong foundation to expand its streaming service.

Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 series is making waves, and one of the most exciting updates is the inclusion of Samsung’s M14 OLED panels across the entire lineup, including the new iPhone 17 Air. This move marks a significant shift in Apple’s approach to display technology, as the M14 OLED was previously reserved for Pro models in the iPhone 16 series. Now, all iPhone 17 models are set to benefit from this advanced display. This article will discuss everything we know so far about the upcoming iPhone 17 series, particularly on the display front.
iPhone 17 Series Rumors
What Makes the M14 OLED Special?
The M14 OLED is Samsung’s most advanced display technology, offering 20-30% higher brightness compared to the previous M13 panel, which was used in the Galaxy S24 series. The M13+, which is used in the Galaxy S25 Ultra, offers improved features but is still not as advanced as the M14 OLED panel that Apple is adopting for the iPhone 17 lineup. Apple’s here looks serious enough to provide a premium display experience across all models, reducing the distinction between the standard and Pro versions.
Why the Galaxy S25 Won’t Feature the M14 OLED?
While Apple has embraced the M14 OLED for its iPhone 17 series, Samsung decided not to include the M14 OLED in the Galaxy S25 lineup. The decision comes down to cost considerations. The M14 panels are likely more expensive to produce compared to the M13 or M13+ panels, and by not using them in the Galaxy S25 series, Samsung can save on production costs.
But Samsung’s decision also ties into its broader strategy of not including the M14 OLED in the Galaxy S25. As Samsung can differentiate its products from Apple’s iPhone 17 series while still offering AI ProScaler technology to enhance the display experience. However, this technological workaround can’t fully compensate for the hardware gap left by the absence of the M14 OLED.
Implications for Apple and Samsung Display
For Apple fans, the adoption of the M14 OLED across the entire iPhone 17 lineup is excellent news. It means that even the standard models will feature brighter, more vibrant displays, narrowing the distinction between the regular and Pro variants. This shift signals Apple’s commitment to providing high-end display technology to a wider audience, making the iPhone 17 series an attractive option for those seeking premium displays without necessarily opting for the Pro models.
Meanwhile, it’s pretty evident that Samsung Display profits from supplying Apple with the higher-cost M14 panels, boosting its revenue.

Although ZTE is the world’s fourth-largest mobile phone manufacturer, we do not hear its name very frequently. Maybe it’s because the company does not advertise its devices like any other smartphone company. Well, the company recently introduced its new smartphone: the Blade V70 Max. In this article, we will discuss the ZTE Blade V70 Max, including its specifications and expected price in Nepal.
ZTE Blade V70 Max Overview
The V70 Max serves as the successor to the previous variants, Blade V70 and Blade V70 Design, which debuted in November.
Design and Display
ZTE has not been consistent with the design of its smartphones, and this model follows a similar trend. The Blade V70 Max features a circular camera island with four cameras, a design that differs from the square camera island seen on the Blade V70 and Blade V70 Design. The top of the phone includes an LED light, and the bottom displays the company’s name. Moreover, the phone has three color options: purple, green, and pink.
On the front, the Blade V70 Max features a 6.9-inch display with noticeable bezels, offering a 120Hz refresh rate. Furthermore, the phone also has an IP54 rating, indicating it is somewhat resistant to dust and water splashes and can withstand drops from up to 1.5 meters. Additionally, it includes a waterdrop notch at the top of the display.
It looks like the company is somewhat inspired by the way Apple designs its phone. Last time Blade V70 came looking like an iPhone on its back and this time the company integrated ZTE’s “Live Island 2.0” feature similar to Apple’s Dynamic Island that offers quick access to notifications and control. For security, the phone supports both face and fingerprint unlock.
Performance and Camera
This is a bit uncommon that even after the announcement of the phone already, the ZTE has not revealed the entire specifications. This includes the chipset as well. Having said that, we are expecting the phone to pack the Unisoc T606 chipset (12nm), featuring an octa-core CPU with two Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 1.6 GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores at 1.6 GHz. Moreover, on the graphic side, we might get the Mali-G57 MP1. In terms of memory, the Blade V70 Max offers two configurations: 6GB/8GB RAM with 128GB of storage.
The camera details have not been fully revealed either, but it is known that the phone features a 50MP main camera along with two additional lenses.
