Vivo X80 vs X80 Pro: Specs Comparison

-

Apr 25, 2022

The new Asus ProArt Display PA147CDV is slated for release later this year. The portable monitor bears some remarkable semblance to the Duo lineup of laptops. It is a 14-inch touchscreen that can act as a secondary display for creative users. It has a small form factor and a 32:9 aspect ratio which is quite expansive.

The ProArt Display PA147CDV is currently being showcased at the 2022 NAB show in Las Vegas, United States. It is slated for a second-quarter release this year. The new Asus external monitor will debut first in North America although no price information is available at this time. The Asus ProArt Display monitor supports Microsoft’s Pen Protocol 2.0 and will be adaptable to Microsoft’s Surface Dial due to its built-in dial functionality. The display is equipped with an HDMI port and two USB-C ports. It also comes with a stand that enables either a horizontal or vertical orientation.

For the Asus ProArt Display PA147CDV to be inviting to its target customer base, it must be affordable and compact. As it is, it sits snugly between a conventional bulky second monitor or a touchscreen tablet. The pricing will be a major driver of demand for the ProArt Display PA147CDV.

Purported Redmi Display 1A Pro receives TUV Rheinland certification

Apr 25, 2022

Xiaomi‘s Redmi brand made its entry into the smart monitor market in 2020 with the launch of the Redmi Display 1A. Since then, the company has gone on to launch a number of high-end displays, including gaming monitors but none in the same price category as the 1A. Looks like the company will soon release another affordable smart display.

A certification listing spotted on Certipedia shows that a Redmi display believed to be the Redmi Display 1A Pro has been certified for low blue light by TUV Rheinland. This means the device will feature a similar display as the 1A which filters out harmful blue light.

The entire specs of the Redmi Monitor 1A aren’t known, we expect the monitor to some with some improvement over its predecessor. The display may feature a 144Hz or even higher refresh rate. We also expect features such as AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync functionality as well.

Xiaomi may likely not alter the design of the Pro version markedly from the Redmi Display 1A. However, we expect a refreshed specs lineup. The pricing will likely be higher than that of the Display 1A which is presently listed on Xiaomi Mall for 700 Yuan. The Redmi Display 1A Pro may come in slightly higher.

Exec: OnePlus can expand to 10,000 stores overnight if needed

By

Apr 25, 2022

Back in June 2021, OnePlus officially announced its merger with OPPO. OnePlus customers and fans alike were divided by this decision with many believing that the brand will lose its identity over time.

Although OnePlus merged its operating system codebase with OPPO’s ColorOS and the Chinese OnePlus devices come with ColorOS out of the box, the brand has largely been able to maintain its identity. Now, in an interview, OnePlus China’s president Li Jie has shared some of the advantages that have been gained from the merger.

In an interview with NetEase Technology and other media outlets, Li Jin revealed that they are now able to expand to 10,000 offline stores overnight in China. As we know, OnePlus for the large part has been an online-focused brand with most of its sales happening online. Using OPPO’s resources, OnePlus can now expand its physical stores to 2,800 county towns, 4,000 core business districts, and more than 5,000 experience points overnight.

The company is able to do so by opening its experience stores inside of existing OPPO outlets. Usually, it takes years for a manufacturer to establish 10,000 physical stores, and it also takes a lot of capital investment. But that’s not the case for OnePlus as Li Jin explains “OPPO’s store is ready-made, the rent has been paid, and the basic salary of the experienced consultant has been paid. For us, it is only on the counter. Find an area that belongs to OnePlus, put the product on it, and if the product generates some sales or services, you will get a commission. This is the benefit of integration, and the offline cost is very low.”

Li Jie also emphasized the importance of having offline experience store sayings “Our products and brands have always emphasized workmanship and texture, including detail polishing. If there is no offline experience link, many times users don’t know or perceive it!”

Using OPPO’s supply chain to achieve this will largely reduce the cost and investment for OnePlus. OnePlus president also pointed out many other benefits they enjoy with the merger. OnePlus recently launched the OnePlus Ace which features OPPO’s 150W SUPERVOOC fast charging. The cutting edge fast charging speed would’ve been difficult to achieve as OnePlus previously worked alone and only had one or two thousand engineers. After the integration, it cooperates with more than 10,000 engineers from OPPO expanding its R&D capabilities and increasing efficiency.

Separately, the recently launched OnePlus Ace will be rebranded for the global market and launch with the OnePlus 10R moniker in India on April 27. Check out our roundup story to learn more about the upcoming phone.

Apr 25, 2022

OnePlus is all set to launch a new budget smartphone this week in India. The OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G is said to be the cheapest 5G phone from the brand. So far, we have learned about the phone’s internals and even the rumored pricing. In this article, we are rounding up all the details learned so far about the Nord CE 2 Lite 5G.

Design and Display

The OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G will be a rebranded version of the Realme 9 Pro 5G that launched a few months back in India. As you’d expect, there will be a trio of camera sensors on the back with a patterned design around the camera island. It will boast a punch-hole screen which will be a regular LCD panel.

OnePlus will indeed be going with an LCD panel for the Nord CE 2 Lite 5G, mainly to keep the cost low. The phone will have a 6.58-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a Full-HD+ resolution. It will have thin bezels on three sides, but at the bottom, it will have a visible chin.

Cameras on the OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G

On to the cameras, we will see the phone feature a selfie camera placed in the upper left corner. It will be a 16MP sensor for shooting selfie shots and for making video calls.

The smartphone will have a triple rear camera system with a 64MP main lens, a 2MP macro sensor, and a 2MP depth-assist lens. As said above, to keep the price down, we won’t see any ultra-wide or telephoto snappers on the phone.

It will come with camera features like Dual View Video and Nightscape mode.

Hardware and Software

The Nord CE 2 Lite 5G will pack the current popular budget 5G chipset – Qualcomm Snapdragon 695. For those unaware, it is an octa-core chipset that powers most of the new 5G budget phones from brands like Realme, Xiaomi, and others.

That chipset will be paired with 6GB/8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. Although it isn’t confirmed, we expect it to have a microSD card slot for additional storage. The phone will house a 5,000mAh battery with support for 33W fast charging.

Unfortunately, the phone will lack an alert slider, which is there on almost all OnePlus phones right now. As for security, it will have a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. The smartphone will boot on OxygenOS 11 and is expected to come with Android 11 out of the box.

Pricing, Colors, and Sale details

The OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G is said to come at a starting price of Rs. 19,999 (~$261) for the 6GB RAM + 128GB storage variant. The top model with 8GB RAM + 128GB storage is rumored to cost Rs. 21,999 (~$285).

We expect the pricing to go even lower with bank discounts. The phone’s price could go as low as Rs. 17,999 (~$235) for the base model.

The smartphone will come in Black and Blue colors and is tipped to go on sale starting from April 30 in India.
