Jul 22, 2022

The gaming phone niche became incredibly high, so high that now, every time a flagship gaming series gets launched, it is composed of several variants and configurations. Today, we are putting the accent on three vanilla versions of the latest flagship gaming series from the best brands in this niche. We are talking about the Asus ROG Phone 6, the Black Shark 5 by Xiaomi, and the REDMAGIC 7 by Nubia. All of these devices have a Pro variant, but it is not needed if you do not need certain advanced components. And thanks to these vanilla versions, you can get better prices. This is a comparison between the specifications of the Asus ROG Phone 6, the Xiaomi Black Shark 5, and the Redmagic 7 by Nubia.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES	Dual SIM slot, 5G, reverse charging, IPX4 water resistant, RGB rear logo, pressure sensitive zones	Dual SIM slot, 5G, pop-up gaming triggers	Dual SIM slot, 5G, pressure sensitive zones, built-in cooling fan,

Design

The Black Shark 5 by Xiaomi has nothing special when it comes to design. The REDMAGIC 7 is more interesting with its glass back and aluminum frame, but the most incredible one is the Asus ROG Phone 6 sporting an aluminum frame and a glass back protected by Gorilla Glass 3 with an illuminated RGB logo. So it wins the comparison and there is also to say that it is the only one with the IPX4 certification guaranteeing water resistance. The REDMAGIC 7 and the Asus ROG Phone 6 include pressure sensitive zones on the rear side which can be used as gaming triggers, while the Black Shark 5 by Xiaomi has two physical pop-up triggers on the right side. Do you prefer pressure sensitive areas or physical gaming triggers?

Display

The display of the Asus ROG Phone 6 is the most advanced one, at least on paper. It has a 6.78-inch panel with AMOLED technology able to show up to one billion colors with great image quality. It has a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2448 pixels, a 165 Hz refresh rate, the HDR10+ certification, the Gorilla Glass Victus protection by Corning, and an in-display fingerprint scanner. The silver medal goes to the REDMAGIC 7 equipped with an AMOLED display sporting a 6.8-inch diagonal. This panel is able to show one billion colors as well, with a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 165 Hz refresh rate, and the Gorilla Glass 5 protection by Corning, as well as an in-display fingerprint reader. The Black Shark 5 has an inferior AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.67 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 144 Hz refresh rate, and a side-mounted fingerprint reader.

Specs & Software

The most powerful phone of this trio is the Asus ROG Phone 6 because it has the strongest processor: the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 by Qualcomm built at 4 nm with an octa-core architecture composed of one Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at 2.75 GHz, 4 Cortex A510 CPUs running at 1.8 GHz, and an Adreno 730 GPU. The chipset is paired with up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of native storage. But you should not underestimate the REDMAGIC 7 with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 mobile platform, up to 18 GB of RAM, up to 512 GB of native storage, and a built-in cooling fan lowering the heat even during long gaming sessions. All of these phones run Android 12 out of the box.

Camera

It looks like the Asus ROG Phone 6 has the most interesting camera department, composed of a 50 MP main camera, a 13 MP ultrawide sensor, and a 5 MP macro lens. The Nubia REDMAGIC 7 and the Black Shark 5 are more or less at the same level with their 64 MP triple cameras, but the former has a disappointing 8 MP selfie camera.

Battery

With the Asus ROG Phone 6, you get the biggest battery, one of the biggest ones even found on a flagship phone: it has a capacity of 6000 mAh and it supports 65W fast charging.

Price

Asus ROG Phone 6 costs $1100/€1100, REDMAGIC 7 starts from €630/$630, and Black Shark 5 costs €500/$500 in its base configuration. The ROG Phone 6 is definitely a better phone thanks to its superior chipset, bigger battery, and better display, but the REDMAGIC 7 provides the best value for money.

Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event is scheduled for August 10th. The South Korean brand is set to unveil the next generation Galaxy Z Flip 4, Galaxy Z Fold 4, and the Galaxy Watch 5 series. Additionally, Samsung is also expected to announce its next-generation Galaxy Buds TWS earphone.

Until now, Samsung’s upcoming audio device was rumoured to be called Galaxy Buds 2 Pro or the Galaxy Buds Pro 2. Now, publication Gizpaw has spotted the TWS earphones on a European e-commerce retailer’s website. As per the listing, the upcoming offering will be called Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and it carries the model number SM-R510. The model number corroborates our previous report of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro’s FCC listing.

To recall, Samsung launched the Galaxy Buds Pro in January 2021 and its affordable variant called the Galaxy Buds 2 arrived in August 2021. Key specifications of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro remain a mystery, however, since it will arrive as the next-generation TWS earphone from the company, we can expect them to pack premium features like ANC, wireless charging, and more.

The European retailer listing also reveals the price of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. It will carry a price tag of EUR 213 and will be available in White, Purple, and Grey colours. We expect more details about the TWS earphones to surface in the coming days.

The Android 13 is expected to debut sometime in the next month, i.e. August 2022. Xiaomi is also expected to launch its Android 13-based MIUI 14 skin in the coming months.

miui 13 material you support featured — MIUI 13

Now, a new report from Xiaomiui has revealed the MIUI 14 name on the codebase while also confirming its availability on Xiaomi 13 series smartphones.

The MIUI 14 moniker has been spotted on the codebase, as seen in the above image. To summarise, the above code is intended to do the following – If the nuwa codenamed device (Xiaomi 13) has MIUI 14 or higher, the code displays the STK (SIM Toolkit) icon on the interface. To put it simply, this code checks the system app for MIUI 14.

The report predicts that the MIUI 14 could be officially unveiled in August, and will likely debut in the upcoming “nuwa” and “fuxi” smartphones which are expected to launch in November. So far, rumors suggest that the “nuwa” and “fuxi” are the codenames for the upcoming Xiaomi 13 series devices. This makes sense as Xiaomi debuted the MIUI 13 with the launch of the Xiaomi 12 series in December 2021.

The report also points out that Xiaomi could stop software support for the Mi 10 smartphone when the MIUI 14 launches. This, however, is a hunch based on the fact that Xiaomi stopped software support for the Mi 9 when the MIUI 13 launched last year.

Ever since Huawei faced various sanctions from the US, it saw a massive decline in its smartphone business operations. But, a new report has revealed some interesting details regarding the brand’s next gen flagship smartphone.

For those unaware, the US had placed sanctions on the Chinese tech giant, which had it lose access to its primary chip supplier TSMC. The company typically used its proprietary HiSilicon Kirin chipsets, especially for its flagship smartphone models. But now, a new report from HuaweiCentral has offered us more information regarding the upcoming Huawei P60 model. Apparently, the new flagship phone will feature a new Kirin chipset that is based on the 14nm process and will be dubbed as the Kirin 9100 SoC.

The news arrives from a tipster who shared the information on Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website). In the social media post, the tipster reveled that despite being based on the 14nm process, the new chip’s performance will be comparable to a current gen 5nm process. Furthermore, this also signifies the company’s attempts at reviving its chipmaking subsidiary, HiSilicon, as well as production of its own integrated circuits. It is rumored that the premium P60 smartphone model will launch sometime in 2023.

For comparison, flagship processor from Qualcomm or Apple are based on the 5nm process, which houses 15 billion transistors. On the other hand, the 14nm process can only house around 2 billion transistors, and was used by Apple for its iPhone 6s back in 2015, which featured the A9 chipset. Keep in mind that this is still unconfirmed news at the moment, so stick around for more updates.
