The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 series is the successor to last year’s Galaxy Watch 4 series and will consist of two smartwatches: the standard Galaxy Watch 5 and Galaxy Watch 5 Pro.

Although the upcoming smartwatches have not yet been officially teased nor have their design formally revealed by Samsung yet, we already know all the details about Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Watch 5 series via electronics safety certification databases and leaks online. In today’s article, here at Gizmochina, we have gathered all the info, pricing, specs and design renders that are available online so far.

Galaxy Watch 5 Series Design and Specs

Let’s start with the design, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 and 5 Pro sport a circular screen form factor like its predecessor the Galaxy Watch 4, however this year, both the Galaxy Watch 5 and 5 Pro will not feature the rotating bezel found on the previous generation Galaxy Watch 3 Classic and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic.

Colours for the Galaxy Watch 5 series can be described as suited for those who are sporting a youthful and active lifestyle. For the standard model, leaked official renders online show that the Galaxy Watch 5 will be available in four colours: Gold, Purple, Navy Green and Blue. 

For the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, it is said to be available in more muted yet professional colours such as black or gray titanium. And this time around, leaks indicate that Samsung will be equipping its higher end Galaxy Watch 5 Pro with a Sapphire glass front display with a titanium built body.

As flagship smartwatches, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 series are expected to arrive with exceptional durability standards as well such as an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, MIL-STD-810G for salt, shock and radiation protection.

Under the hood, we expect the Galaxy Watch 5 series to sport similar internals to the Galaxy Watch 4 series. For context, the Galaxy Watch 4 featured Samsung’s industry-leading Exynos W920 smartwatch SoC, with 1.5 GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage.

Endurance on the hand, both the Watch 5 and 5 Pro are said to have better battery life than its predecessor. The Galaxy Watch 5 will be available with a 276 mAh for the 40mm model or a 398mAh battery for the 44mm model.  The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is said to offer a massive upgrade in the battery department, coming in at a 572mAh battery capacity. Notably, Samsung is also said to offer 10W fast charging support on the Galaxy Watch 5 and Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, which is nearly double of what’s currently offered by the Galaxy Watch 4 series.

Lastly, both watches will run Google’s latest wearOS 3.5 skinned with Samsung’s One UI Watch 4.5.

Pricing and Availability

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 will be available in two size options: 40mm and 44mm, while the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro comes only with a single option – 46mm.

The Galaxy Watch 5 40mm will be available in Pink Gold, Gray, and Silver. The 40mm variant will reportedly cost €300 for the Bluetooth model and €350 for the LTE model.

The 44mm variant of the regular Galaxy Watch 5 would be available in Blue, Gray, and Silver colours, and the 44mm model is to cost €350 for the Bluetooth model and €400 for the LTE model.

The highest-end 46mm Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is to set you back at €490 for the Bluetooth variant and €540 for the LTE variant and be available in Black or Titanium Gray.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Roundup: Launch Date, Design, Specs, and Expected Pricing

Samsung really changed the fate of foldable smartphones with its Galaxy Z Flip 3. The phone came at a reasonable price and featured the same processor as the Galaxy S21 series. It felt like the first foldable that actually appealed to the masses. Now, the company is ready to bring the successor to the Flip 3 and it definitely has big shoes to fill in.

The company hasn’t announced the foldable by name, but some promising rumors, press renders, and leaks have already revealed a lot about the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 4. So, here’s everything that we know so far.

Samsung Galaxy Unpacked Event Poster

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Launch Date

Just like last year, Samsung is said to announce the next Galaxy Z Flip this August. The company is holding its Galaxy Unpacked event on August 10th at 9 AM and that’s when we can expect the Galaxy Z Flip 4 to launch. Alongside it, we’ll likely see the Galaxy Z Fold 4, Galaxy Watch 5 series, and some new earbuds.

The launch date is almost certain because the promotional images and teasers clearly show us the silhouette of a foldable that clearly looks like a Flip phone. In addition, Samsung’s smartphone head also teased new foldables in a recent blog post.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Design

Numerous leaks and renders suggest that the design of the Galaxy Z Flip 4 will be almost identical to its predecessor. Sure, the device will carry a few changes here and there but nothing too prominent. The foldable is said to have tweaked dimensions, it will be slightly smaller and thicker with dimensions of 165.1 x 71.9 x 7.2mm.

We can expect the Flip 4 to feature a cover display placed in a black strip up top, along with the two cameras. The internal folding screen will likely be 6.7-inches while the cover screen is said to be bumped from 1.83-inches up to 1.9-inches. Moreover, rumors suggest that the crease will likely be less noticeable. The hinge on the device is said to be slightly thinner but there will still be a gap between the two sides of the smartphone when it’s folded closed.

The device is said to be coming in Graphite, Bora Purple, Pink Gold, and Blue colorways. Moreover, reports suggest that Samsung will bring back the “Bespoke edition” which will allow people to customize the color of the front, back, and frame of the phone.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Specifications

The specifications of the Galaxy Z Flip 4 are all over the internet. The device is said to feature a foldable AMOLED 2X display that will offer a Full HD+ resolution of 2640 x 1080 pixels and 120Hz refresh rate.

If we talk about the processor, the Z Flip 4 will likely draw power from a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 Soc and since the launch of Moto Razr 2022 is postponed, it may even get the title of the world’s first foldable device to feature this processor. The device could come with at least 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of built-in storage. The device will likely match the performance of Samsung’s Galaxy S22 series, in fact, it may even outperform them.

The device is expected to carry a slightly bigger battery than its predecessor. Leaks suggest it will be backed by 3700mAh dual-cell battery. The device is expected to support a maximum of 25W fast wired charging and sluggish 10W wireless charging.

On the software front, the device will run Android 12L based on One UI 4 out of the box. For the unversed, Android 12L is a version of Android that is optimized for foldable devices. The device will receive 3 years of Android updates and 5 years of security updates (If it lasts that long).

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Cameras

From what we know so far, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 will likely come with the same set of cameras as the previous Galaxy Z Flip 3. However, the Galaxy Z Fold 4, which is launching alongside the device, is rumored to flaunt several camera improvements.

The device is expected to have the same 12-megapixel main camera, 12-megapixel ultra-wide, and 10-megapixel selfie shooter as that of its predecessor. But it is possible that the new snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset that is said to be under the hood of the Flip 4 may bring new camera features and better photo and video quality.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Price

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 is said to have only a minor increase in pricing. Samsung understands that in order to make foldables mainstream, it has to keep the prices under control. We think consumers will be more than happy to purchase the new Galaxy Z Flip 4 if the prices are somewhat similar to its predecessor.

A Report suggests the Galaxy Z Flip 4 will be priced at €1109 for the base 128GB variant. The 256 GB storage model is said to come at a price of €1169 (roughly $1191).

So you get the max performance but a few compromises when it comes to the display and the cameras, in order to obtain a competitive price. Before this deivce, OnePlus released a top-tier premium flagship: the OnePlus 10 Pro. Given that it is older, the new 10T has a few advantages over the predecessor, but the Pro variant remains a top-tier flagship. So which one to buy and which offers the highest value for money? We will try to answer this question appropriately by giving you this comparison between the main specifications of the OnePlus 10T and the OnePlus 10 Pro.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES 5G, dual SIM 5G, dual SIM, reverse wireless charging

Design

At first glance, the OnePlus 10T and the OnePlus 10 Pro have the same look. But there are a few important differences you should consider. First of all, there is no doubt about the fact that the OnePlus 10 Pro is the winner of the design comparison. It offers two main advantages: the presence of a curved screen at the sides, and the presence of an aluminum frame, as well as a rear glass protected by Gorilla Glass Victus. The OnePlus 10T comes with a glass back as well, but it is protected by Gorilla Glass 5 and the frame is made of plastic. Further, the phone is thicker, even though it has a smaller battery. So the Pro variant is definitely better in terms of aesthetics. Note that the U.S. version of the OnePlus 10 Pro comes with the IP68 certification making it dustproof and waterproof, while the 10T and the other global variants of the 10 Pro do not offer a certification against water and dust.

 

Display

One of the most important advantages of the OnePlus 10 Pro over the OnePlus 10T is the display. First of all, it comes with a higher Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels. Further, it has the LTPO 2.0 enabling an adaptive refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz. The 10T has a lower Full HD+ resolution and it lacks the LTPO technology. For the rest, the two AMOLED panels are not so different. They are able to show up to one billion colors and they support the HDR10+ certification, as well as an in-display fingerprint reader. These phones also come with good stereo speakers for an improved audio experience. Note that the display of the Pro variant is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus just like the glass back, while the 10T has the weaker Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

 

Specs & Software

When it comes to the hardware, the OnePlus 10T is the winner of this comparison. Indeed, it has a more powerful chipset: the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 found on the 10T is actually an upgraded version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 found on the OnePlus 10 Pro. It is a chipset built with a 4 nm production process sporting an octa-core architecture. It is composed of a Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at 2.85 GHz, and four Cortex A510 CPUs running at 1.8 GHz, as well as an Adreno 730 GPU. The chipset is paired with up to 16 GB of RAM, while the max amount of RAM found on the Pro version is 12 GB. The software is the same and there is not any change: Android 12 customized by OxygenOS 12.1.

 

Camera

The camera setup of the OnePlus 10 Pro is actually more advanced than the one found on the 10T. It is composed of a 48 MP main camera with OIS and laser autofocus, an 8 MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom and OIS, and a 50 MP ultrawide camera with a FOV of 150 degrees, all with the Hasselblad Camera for Mobile features such as realistic color calibration and XPan mode. The cameras of the OnePlus 10T are not co-engineered with Hasselblad and, while the main sensor is a more interesting 50 MP Sony IMX766 camera, the secondary sensor are way inferior with their 8 + 2 MP resoultion. The OnePlus 10T loses even when it comes to the selfie camera, with a 16 MP snapper instead of a 32 MP one.

 

Battery

The OnePlus 10 Pro provides a longer battery life thanks to its bigger 5000 mAh battery, but the 10T charges faster thanks to 150W fast charging. However, the 10T lacks the 50W wireless charging technology found on the Pro variant.

 

Price

The OnePlus 10T is priced at €720/$720 in its base variant (prices vary depending on the market, while the OnePlus 10 Pro can currently be found at about €800/$800 thanks to online street prices. Now you know the differences: which one would you pick?

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 Roundup – design, pricing, specs & more

Samsung is gearing up for the Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled for August 10. The company is expected to launch many new devices at this event, however, the show-stopper will undoubtedly be the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4. So, let’s take a look at what we know so far about the upcoming foldable flagship.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 renders by 91mobiles

Design & display

Design-wise, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 is expected to look quite similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 3, but with a slightly slimmer body compared to the previous generation. It is also said to have 6.1 x 5.1 x 0.27 inches (155 x 130 x 7.1 mm) dimensions, which would make it a little shorter but wider and thicker than its predecessor. Other than these differences, the smartphone will ditch the camera module design of the previous generation in favor of a design more akin to that of the Galaxy S22 Ultra.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4

Coming to the display, leaks so far suggest that the smartphone will have 6.2 inches (exterior) and 7.6 inches (interior) display panels like the Galaxy Z Fold 3, however, it is said to have a 6:5 aspect ratio, which is more square compared to the 5:4 ratio found on the current gen foldable. The outer display is expected to have an HD+ AMOLED panel, while the inner display will likely offer a QXGA+ AMOLED panel. Both displays are expected to carry support for a refresh rate of 120Hz.

Specs

Under the hood, the smartphone will house Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen Plus SoC which is built on TSMC’s industry-leading 4nm node and boasts up to 30% battery efficiency compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip. The chipset will come paired with either 12GB or 16GB RAM and will be available in 256GB and 512GB storage options.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4

The device is said to have a 4,400mAh capacity battery with 25W fast charging. On the software front, the foldable will get an Android 12-based UI packed with features like an easy split screen and bottom-mounted taskbar which are features introduced with Android 12L.

Cameras

Rumors surrounding the cameras suggest that the Galaxy Z Fold 4 will have a triple camera setup on the back consisting of a 50-megapixel main camera, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 12-megapixel telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom support.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4

The device is said to have a 10-megapixel front-facing camera on the outer display, however, the under-display camera on the foldable’s inner panel has leakers divided. Some suggest that the company will offer an improved 16-megapixel under-display camera on the device, while others state that it’ll be the same 4-megapixel sensor featured on the Galaxy Z Fold 3.

Pricing

So far, reliable tipsters like Ross Young have stated that there is a chance of a price cut with the upcoming foldable from Samsung including the Galaxy Z Fold 4. This would be quite the welcome news considering the fact that the Galaxy Z Fold 3 debuted with a starting price of $1,799.

However, recent leaks from European retailers suggest that the device will be getting a price hike rather than a price cut, starting at €1,799 for the 256GB storage model, while the 512GB model is said to cost €1919. We would suggest our readers take these pricing leaks with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for the official reveal scheduled for August 10.

Best Wireless Mouse 2022 – Logitech, Razer & More

Getting the right mouse can boost your productivity to a considerable extent. And a mouse isn’t just an ideal companion for your desktop, as it can be a great addition to your laptop too. After all, having a mouse will provide a lot of relief to your fingers. These days, you can get a mouse for as cheap as $10 and it go up to even $100. But if you are confused as to which mouse to get for your PC, laptop, or even your tablet, we are here to help. 

g305 logitech lightspeed

In this article about the best wireless mouse of 2022, we mention the best mice from Logitech, Razer, and even Microsoft, so you’ll have at least one option which suits your budget and your need. 

Note that if you wish to use the mouse on multiple devices, it might be a good idea to pay a little extra and get a mouse with Bluetooth support that can connect to your laptop, desktop, or even your tablet. But if you are going to stick to using the mouse on a single device, you have a bunch of cheaper options that feature a USB dongle for connection. 

So, let’s take a look at the Best Wireless Mouse of 2022. 

 

Logitech MX Master 3S – Best Overall

Logitech MX Master 3S

The Logitech MX Master 3S is one of the best mice that you can buy on the market right now. It comes with a very comfortable grip, plenty of customizable buttons, and multiple connectivity options like Bluetooth LE and Logi Bolt USB receiver, offering you an excellent user experience. 

The Master 3, its predecessor, was already a fantastic mouse for your daily needs, but the new model brings higher sensitivity and quieter clicks, enhancing your experience further. There are multiple side buttons and scroll wheels that you can customize for different applications like Adobe Photoshop, Premiere, Microsoft Office suite, etc., offering a truly customized user experience. 

We agree that this mouse is on the expensive side, but if you have $100 to spare, it won’t disappoint you. Note that if you are left-handed, you will have to look for something else, as this Master 3S series model is specifically designed for the right-handed consumer segment. 

WHERE TO BUY
Buy Logitech MX Master 3S @ AmazonIn or @AmazonGlobal 

 

Logitech MX Vertical – Best Ergo Mouse

MX_VERTICAL Logitech

Ergonomic mice are gaining popularity these days, given the long hours we spend scrolling and clicking on our large screens. These mice are specifically designed to give a comfortable grip to your palm with the least amount of stress to your fingers and thumb. The resulting design might look very weird and will take some getting used to, however, in the long term, such an ergo mouse would minimize the damage to your hand, especially if you use a PC for a long period of time. 

The Logitech MX Vertical is one of the best in this niche segment, offering a unique vertical shape that provides great comfort to your arm, wrist, and fingers. It comes with features that are similar to any other high-end Logitech mouse, so you do get customizable buttons and scroll wheels. 

Like the Logitech MX Master 3S, the MX vertical also supports Bluetooth LE and USB dongle receiver and can switch between 3 wireless connections, using a dedicated quick swap button at the bottom. 

You should get around four months on a single charge, which is pretty good for a high-end mouse. The Logitech MX Vertical retails for around the same price as the Master 3S series, but you’ll often find it at good discounts under $100.

WHERE TO BUY
Buy Logitech MX Vertical @ Amazon or @Aliexpress or AmazonIn or @Walmart

If you are looking for something more casual, with a relatively ergonomic design, Logitech has another ergo mouse in their lineup, the Logitech Lift Vertical, which retails at a cheaper price than the MX Vertical model. 

 

Logitech G305 Lightspeed – Best for Budget Gamers

An ergonomic mouse is good for your day-to-day productivity tasks, but when it comes to gaming, you need something a lot faster and more accurate. Meet Logitech’s G305 Lightspeed gaming mouse, which comes with a rated sensitivity of 12,000 CPI, all thanks to Logitech’s proprietary Hero sensor. The Hero sensor can hit a max velocity of over 400 inches per second with up to 40G of acceleration. 

While the G305 Lightspeed is marketed as a gaming mouse, it lacks RGB lighting. However, to make that up, the brand offers the mouse in multiple color options, often unseen in the gaming mouse market. It offers a comfortable experience even during long hours of gaming sessions, and also features the nifty G-Shift button found on Logitech’s other gaming mice. 

The G305 also comes with an extender for its 2.4GHz USB Type-A dongle, ensuring lag-free connectivity, and is rated for up to 250 hours of gaming. 

WHERE TO BUY
Buy Logitech G305 LightSpeed Gaming Mouse @ Amazon or @Aliexpress or AmazonIn or @Walmart

 

 

Razer Viper V2 Pro – Best for Hardcore Gamers

Razer Viper V2 Pro

While the Logitech G305 Lightspeed is good for gamers who are on a budget, the Razer Viper V2 Pro, the latest addition to Razer’s premium gaming mouse lineup, goes all out when it comes to the gaming experience. 

It’s ideal for hardcore gamers and comes in a lightweight form factor. The mouse features Razer’s excellent Focus Pro 30K Optical Sensor which offers extremely accurate tracking, while its 2.4GHz dongle ensures a zero-lag gaming experience. There’s a reason why gamers prefer Razer’s hardware, and it’s because of its impeccable performance. The same continues with the new generation Razer Viper V2 Pro. You’ll get somewhere around 80 hours on a single charge, which is decent for a performance-oriented gaming mouse. 

This extreme gaming performance does come at a staggering price – the Viper V2 Pro is priced at $149.99, but if you have the money to spare and are a competitive gamer, the Viper V2 Pro will eventually justify its price tag. 

WHERE TO BUY
Buy Razer Viper V2 Pro @ Amazon or @Aliexpress or AmazonIn or @Walmart

 

Razer Pro Click Mini – Best Portable Mouse

Not all Razer mice are ridiculously priced. For example, one of the best portable and compact mice on the market right now, the Razer Pro Click Mini comes for under $60. For this price, Razer offers a comfortable design, seven programmable buttons with two scrolling modes, both Bluetooth and Wireless 2.4Ghz connections, and pairing with up to four devices at a time. 

Its optical sensor has a maximum resolution of 12,000dpi and offers excellent precision and accuracy. Clearly, looking at the compact design, you would realize that this is a mouse ideal for your laptop. Plus, you get a pretty long battery life, up to 465 hours with a 2.4GHz link or 725 hours with Bluetooth. 

WHERE TO BUY
Buy Razer Viper V2 Pro @ Amazon or @Walmart

 

Logitech M720 Triathlon – Best for Multi-device Setup

The Logitech M720 Triathlon is good for users who want an affordable mouse with multiple programmable buttons. In addition to offering good precision and accuracy while scrolling between multiple monitors, the M720 Triathlon brings up to 8 buttons. The mouse is targeted at users handling a multi-device setup, as it includes a dedicated toggle-and-connect button that can switch between three connected devices at a time. 

The M720 Triathlon comes with Logitech’s Advanced Optical Tracking sensor, boasting a resolution of up to 1000 dpi. It can also be connected via Bluetooth, which isn’t surprising given its multi-device support, however, note that it does not support iOS devices. 

That said, for under $40, the M720 brings a comfortable design and built quality, with precision tracking, and multiple programmable buttons, making it easy to recommend it for consumers who are on a budget.

OnePlus Nord Watch color options, specifications leaked online; could launch soon

Now, rumors are rife that the company is working on another smartwatch that will be called the OnePlus Nord Watch. Details about the watch are still short.  However, a noted tipster is here with information about the OnePlus Nord Watch’s color options and features.

OnePlus 10T First sale in India Starts Today: Price, Specifications, Offers

OnePlus 10T is all set to go on sale in India today. The new OnePlus smartphone was launched in the country earlier this week. It comes packed with a powerful chipset, immersive display, and a decent camera setup. The smartphone is probably the best choice under Rs. 50,000 but it’s also the most “generic” OnePlus flagship ever. It neither has the company’s iconic alert slider, nor the Hasselblad tuned cameras or wireless charging. Let’s take a look at its specifications, pricing, and other details.

OnePlus 10T Specifications

OnePlus 10T flaunts a 6.7-inch Full HD+ Fluid AMOLED display that offers a resolution of 1080 x 2412 pixels, 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ support, and 10-bit color depth. The display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass and also houses an optical in-display fingerprint sensor. The smartphone draws power from Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 Soc paired with up to 16GB RAM and 256GB internal storage.

OnePlus 10T 5G

For photography, the OnePlus 10T features the tried and tested 50-megapixel Sony IMX769 primary camera sensor which is also found on the Nothing Phone (1), Asus Zenfone 9, and a slew of other phones. The main sensor is accompanied by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2-megapixel macro sensor. On the front, the device gets a 16-megapixel shooter for selfies and video calls. The handset is backed by a decent 4,800mAh battery that supports 150W fast charging because why not?

On the software front, the OnePlus 10T runs Android 12-based OxygenOS 12. The OS is basically ColorOS 12 with a few (unnecessary) tweaks.

OnePlus 10T Price in India, Availability

OnePlus 10T price in India is set at Rs. Rs 49,999 for the base 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variant. The phone also comes in a 12GB + 256GB model at Rs. Rs 54,999 and the 16GB + 256GB option at Rs 55,999. It comes in Jade Green and Moonstone Black finishes.

Sale offers on the OnePlus 10T include a 10% instant discount for customers purchasing through an SBI card. Further, if you decide to buy the device from the official OnePlus store, you can avail yourself of a 10% discount with an ICICI Credit Card. The device will go for sale at 12 PM IST today through Amazon and the OnePlus store.

OnePlus 10T vs iQOO 9T: Specs Comparison

OnePlus already released a top-tier flagship phone in the first half of this year: the OnePlus 10 Pro. That is why, for the second half of the year, it decided to opt for a flagship killer: the OnePlus 10T. Meanwhile, another device identified by the letter T went official, and it is a flagship killer just like the OnePlus one. We are talking about the iQOO 9T. Both of these devices are amazing phones for gamers and for all of those people who seek awesome performance with a pretty low budget if compared to the most expensive phones in the market. That is exactly the reason why we decided to publish this comparison between the specifications of the OnePlus 10T and the iQOO 9T. This will surely be a very interesting comparison for gamers and power users out there.

16 MP f/2.5 front camera
BATTERY 4800 mAh, fast charging 150W 4700 mAh, Fast Charging 120W
ADDITIONAL FEATURES 5G, dual SIM 5G, dual SIM

Design

The design of the iQOO 9T is more original than the one of the OnePlus 10T, even though it is a bigger phone in terms of overall dimensions. Its rear side is made of two different textures and it is also bi-color. Further, it is made with premium materials: aluminum for the frame and glass for the rear side, with a front glass protected by Gorilla Glass 5. Last but not least, it has the IP52 certification protecting the body against dust and water. The OnePlus 10T comes with a glass back, a front glass protected by Gorilla Glass 5, and a plastic frame. It does not have any certification against dust and water, but it is a more compact phone thanks to the presence of a smaller display. Its design is reminiscent of the one of the OnePlus 10 Pro, with a big camera module and a 2×2 matrix of sensors.

 

Display

The display of the iQOO 9T is slightly wider with a diagonal of 6.78 inches, but these two panels have the same specifications. They come with the AMOLED technology guaranteeing brilliant colors and deep blacks, as well as a Full HD+ resolution of 1080p. They have a 120 Hz max refresh rate and the HDR10+ certification, as well as a very high peak brightness and an in-display fingerprint reader. The iQOO 9T adds an important technology for gaming: the Monster Touch, allowing the touch screen to be pressure sensitive. This is important in the most competitive games as it allows for more commands in a single screen area, without the need for air triggers or physical triggers outside the display. Both these phones are equipped with stereo speakers providing a great audio experience, but they lack a 3.5 mm audio jack.

 

Specs & Software

The chipset powering the OnePlus 10T and the iQOO 9T is exactly the same: the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, currently the most powerful chipset released by Qualcomm to date. It is built with a 4 nm production process and it has an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at a max frequency of 2.75 GHz, four Cortex A510 CPUs running at a max frequency of 1.8 GHz, and an Adreno 730 GPU. What makes the difference is the memory configuration, better on the OnePlus 10T which provides up to 16 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 256 GB of native UFS 3.1 storage, while the iQOO 9T stops at 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of native storage. Both the handsets come with a very advanced cooling system and Android 12 out of the box, as well as highly customized user interfaces on top.

 

Camera

If you are searching for the most advanced camera phone, you should opt for the iQOO 9T without thinking twice. It is equipped with a triple camera setup including a 50 MP Sony IMX766 main sensor supporting OIS, a 12 MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom, and a 13 MP ultrawide camera with a FOV of 120 degrees. The OnePlus 10T has exactly the same main camera (and even the same 16 MP selfie shooter), but the secondary sensors are inferior: an 8 MP ultrawide camera and a useless 2 MP macro lens.

 

Battery

The OnePlus 10T has a slightly bigger battery with a capacity of 4800 mAh and it should last a bit more on a single charge, due to similar hardware components. It also features a faster charging technology, with a power of 150W. The iQOO 9T has a smaller 4700 mAh battery with 120W fast charging.

 

Price

The iQOO 9T carries a $630 or Rs. 49,999 starting price in the Indian market, and you need at least $630 or Rs. 49,999 even to purchase the OnePlus 10T in India (for the base configuration with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of native storage). The iQOO 9T looks a bit more interesting because of its premium design, Monster Touch, and better cameras, but the OnePlus 10T has more RAM, a bigger battery, and faster charging.

Which one would you pick?

 

OnePlus 10T vs Vivo iQOO 9T: PRO and CONS

OnePlus 10T

PRO

  • Superior memory configuration
  • Wider availability
  • More compact
  • Bigger battery
  • Faster charging

CONS

  • Inferior camera

OnePlus 10T vs OnePlus 10R – Specs Comparison

OnePlus 10T vs OnePlus 10R

Design

The OnePlus 10T adopts the same design philosophy as its more expensive sibling, the OnePlus 10 Pro. The phone features a slab design with rounded corners and a camera housing that curves into the left side. In fact, you would have had a hard time distinguishing the two models if not for the placement of the LED flash in the camera housing. The OnePlus Pro features the LED ring flash near the bottom right corner of the housing while the OnePlus 10T shifts it to the top right corner. 

As for the OnePlus 10R, the phone features a different design philosophy than its more expensive siblings, coming with a flatter and half-textured back. The design is different from what you see on OnePlus devices, so it stands out. The 10R is also slimmer and lighter than the 10T at 8.2mm (vs 8.8mm) and 182 grams (206g). 

Notably, both the OnePlus 10T and the 10R skip the iconic alert slider usually found on OnePlus smartphones. They also do not feature any IP certification. 

In the design department, it all boils down to individual preferences. The 10T’s design feels more premium with its curvier profile, but some people may prefer the 10R’s flatter and unique design.

 

Display

Surprisingly, both the phones have the exact same displays. 

The 10T and 10R models come with a 6.7-inch FHD+ Fluid AMOLED display with HDR10+ certification. The displays are protected by Corning’s Gorilla Glass 5 and have a 120Hz refresh rate. 

Since the two phones have the same displays, there’s no point in picking a winner in this department. Your buying decision will be influenced by the other departments in the comparison, especially the next one – performance. 

 

Specs & Software

While smartphone processors, especially in the mid-range segment have evolved significantly over the past few years, smartphones with the fastest performance are still valued in the market. And that’s why the OnePlus 10T has a significant edge in this comparison. It’s one of the fastest smartphones in the market today, all thanks to the Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 processor inside with up to 16GB of RAM. Notably, even the OnePlus 10 Pro, which is costlier than the 10T comes with an older processor. 

On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R features the MediaTek Dimensity 8100-Max. The processor is pretty good in the mid-range segment, but will definitely lag behind the 10T in terms of performance and speed. 

For gaming and resource-intensive tasks, there is no doubt that the OnePlus 10T would outperform the 10R. 

Being two phones from the OnePlus stable, both the models run on Android 12-based OxygenOS 12.1 and will have a similar software experience. 

 

 

Camera

Like the display department, the camera setup is also exactly the same in both models. 

The two phones feature a 50MP primary camera with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide shooter, and finally, a 2MP macro camera. Even the selfie cameras are exactly the same – a 16MP punch hole shooter. 

Despite having the exact same camera setups, the OnePlus 10T is likely to have an advantage. With the fastest and the latest Qualcomm processor inside, the image processing is also expected to get an upgrade, meaning the 10T could output slightly better images than the 10R. 

However, we’ll have to wait and see a real-life camera comparison between the two models to make the final call. 

 

Battery

Both have similar battery capacities. The OnePlus 10T comes with a slightly larger 4800mAh battery on board with an ultra-fast 150W charging support. On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R (top-end model) features a 4500mAh battery with the same ultra-fast 150W charging technology. 

These are the two of the fastest charging smartphones in the world right now, and you won’t go wrong getting either of them.

 

Price

The OnePlus 10T starts at ₹44,999/$649/£629/€699. On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R is available for a slightly cheaper price tag in India at ₹39,999

The final purchase decision will boil down to two main areas – performance and budget. If you want a smartphone with the best performance on the market, the OnePlus 10T, even at its slightly higher price tag, will be a no-brainer for you. On the other hand, if you are looking for a phone that’s cheaper, performs like a mid-ranger, and charges extremely fast, it makes sense to get the 150W version of the OnePlus 10R.
