Next week, there are going to be four smartphone launches. All of them are for newer devices. Two of them will be hosted by realme in different markets, one by OPPO, and the last one will be by Nothing. The most exciting of all is definitely the latter. Because for the first time in a while, we know nothing (no pun intended) about a tech product before its announcement.
With that out of the way, let’s take a look at these phones one by one.
Within a year, realme will be debuting the third-gen realme GT NEO series model on March 22 in China. Officially called the realme GT NEO3, the handset will be marketed as a ‘fashionable gaming smartphone’. The conference will kickstart at 2 PM CST and can be live-streamed on Weibo and other Chinese video platforms.
The phone will sport a race car-inspired rear design with a triangular camera module. Its front will be occupied by a centered punch-hole display. One of its main highlights will be support for 150W fast charging.
It is expected to arrive with a 6.7-inch 120Hz FHD+ AMOLED display, MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC, LPDDR5 RAM, UFS 3.1 storage, 50MP (wide, IMX766) + 8MP (ultrawide) + 2MP (macro) triple camera system, 16MP front-facing camera, realme UI 3.0 based on Android 12, and 4,5000mAh battery.
2. realme narzo 50A Prime
The realme narzo 50A Prime will be officially unveiled on March 22 in Indonesia. It will be announced alongside the realme narzo 50 and realme GT2 Pro in the country. The event will be live-streamed on the brand’s official YouTube channel from 2 PM WIB.
The handset will have a flat frame with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and its 50MP triple camera module will be similar to the recently launched realme-branded phones. It will flaunt a 6.6-inch FHD+ display with a dewdrop notch and will be powered by a UNISOC T612 SoC.
The device will measure 8.1mm in thickness and house a 5,000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. Finally, it will boot realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11
3. OPPO K10
OPPO will take wraps off the OPPO K10 in India on March 23. The live stream for the event will begin at 12 PM IST. The handset will be sold via the brand’s official website and Flipkart from March 29.
The company has officially revealed some of its features. It will come with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 SoC, a 50MP triple camera setup, a 16MP selfie camera, a dedicated MicroSD card slot, and OPPO K Series Glow Design comprising of a dual-tone (matte, glossy) finish.
4. Nothing
OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei’s consumer tech startup Nothing has scheduled a conference called ‘Nothing (event): The Truth’ for March 23. It will be live-streamed on the company’s official YouTube channel from 2 PM GMT.
The company is expected to announce its first smartphone at this event. The handset could be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC.
Since this is all the information we have, it is probably the most anticipated tech event in a long time.
Sized 3.1GB, the update has been stated to increase system security along with optimizing some system apps and features, in the changelog.

Aside from the above, the MIUI 13 update for the POCO X3 Pro is fairly boring, with almost nothing new aside from new wallpapers. Some users have observed that the messed-up notification layout has also been finally fixed, but that’s about it.
Do note here that the update is currently only being rolled out to Mi Pilot Testers in India, according to Xiaomiui. If all’s found well with it, then expect a wider rollout within a couple of weeks. Alternatively, you can attempt a manual installation after downloading the ROM zip via this link, but that’s not recommended.
Asus upgraded their Zenfone 8 and the Zenfonr 8 Flip to Android 12 back in December 2021 and has now finally released stable Android 12 based builds for their ROG Phone 5 and the ROG Phone 5s devices.
The announcement was made on the Asus ZenTalk community forum on March 15th, and the update carries version number 31.0810.1226.57 for the ROG Phone 5 and the ROG Phone 5s. Asus has provided a manual download link if you don’t get the update option automatically which the ROG Phone 5 users can explore following this link while the Rog Phone 5s users can visit the page by clicking on this link.
ASUS ROG Phone 5 Series Specifications
The ASUS ROG Phone 5 series come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. The standard and Pro model max at 16GB RAM and 512GB internal storage, while the Ultimate version comes with a whopping 18GB RAM.
On the front, the phones in the lineup come with a 6.78-inch FHD+ Samsung Super AMOLED Display (E4) with up to 144Hz refresh rate, 24.3ms touch latency, 300Hz touch sampling rate, and an in-screen fingerprint sensor.
As for the optics, the devices feature a triple camera setup on the back consisting of a 64MP Sony IMX686 primary sensor, a 13MP ultra-wide unit, and a 5MP macro shooter. There is also a 24MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calls.
The devices run the latest Android 11 operating system out-of-the-box with both ZenUI and ROG UI on top. The phones are powered by a dual-3000mAh (6,000mAh) battery with support for 65W fast charging and Qualcomm Quick Charge 5.0.
A Dimensity 9000 version of the OPPO Find X5 Pro was scheduled to launch on March 18th as an alternative to the regular model powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. However, with a post on Weibo, OPPO now says that the launch has been postponed to April 1st in light of a fresh spike in COVID-19 cases in China.
“On the premise of strictly complying with local epidemic prevention and control policies and ensuring the health and safety of the company’s employees, we have adopted emergency plans to solve the problem,” says the post.
Chinese e-commerce platform JD.com subsequently updated its appointment dates to reflect on the changed plans, with the listing for the phone now showing an April 1st sale date.
Still, the launch postponement shouldn’t bar the OPPO Find X5 Pro Dimensity Edition from becoming the second phone to be powered by the flagship Dimensity 9000 chip, after the Redmi K50 Pro. The Redmi K50 series was launched successfully yesterday.
The OPPO Find X5 Pro Dimensity Edition will be sold in a sole 12GB+256GB variant at a price of 5,799 Yuan, which is around $911. This is cheaper compared to its Snapdragon counterpart, which sells for 5,999 Yuan (around $943) for the same config. Considering the Dimensity 9000 has been found to beat the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in most benchmark tests, it would not be unfair to say that the Dimensity Edition has slightly better value.
Earlier this month, OnePlus announced that it will be launching the OnePlus 10 Pro in India and other global markets by the end of March. Now, OnePlus India has released its first official teaser for the OnePlus 10 Pro.
The teaser features an image of a device that looks similar to the OnePlus One, the company’s first smartphone. Other than that, it states “someth10ng powerful is coming” with “10” and “power” written in a different font indicating that it is most likely the OnePlus 10 Pro.
The device was previously tipped to launch between March 22 and 24 in India. And as it has already launched in China, we already know all of its specs and features.
OnePlus 10 Pro specs
The OnePlus 10 Pro features a 6.7-inch LTPO 2.0 AMOLED display with support for variable refresh rates from 1Hz to 120Hz. The screen will have a resolution of 3216 x 1440 pixels, 525 PPI pixel density, 1300 nits peak brightness, 5000000:1 contrast ratio, 20.1:9 aspect ratio, 92.7% screen-to-body ratio, and Gorilla Glass Victus for protection.
It also comes with an under-display fingerprint sensor for added security. Under the hood, the device comes powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, coupled with up to 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB UFS 3.1 internal storage.
Coming to the camera configuration, the phone comes with a 48MP Sony IMX789 primary sensor with OIS, a 50MP Samsung ISOCELL JN1 sensor 150-degree ultra-wide unit, and an 8MP 3.3x telephoto shooter with OIS. On the front side, the device has a 32MP Sony IMX615 snapper for taking selfies and video calling. All these cameras are co-tuned by Hasselblad with features like Hasselblad Natural Color Optimization 2.0.
It is powered by a 5,000mAh battery and comes with support for 80W SuperVOOC fast charging, 50W AirVOOC fast wireless charging, and reverse wireless charging. The device will run Android 12 based OxygenOS 12 out of the box.
The OnePlus 10R has reportedly entered the private testing phase in India and will most likely launch sometime after the launch of the OnePlus 10 Pro.
After revealing that preorders for the ThinkBook 14+ and ThinkBook 16+ laptops will be starting this month, Lenovo has now officially launched both devices.
Equipped with Intel i5-12500H and i7-12700H processors, the laptops are built with portability in mind and are therefore fairly thin and light. The 12th Gen Intel chips are paired with the NVIDIA RTX 2050 GPU on some of the variants.
The configuration along with pricing of the notebooks has been given below (via IT Home):
ThinkBook 14+
i5-12500H: starting price of 4,999 Yuan (around $785)
i7-12700H: starting price of 6,099 Yuan (around $958)
The ThinkBook 14+ is equipped with a 14-inch 16:10 screen with a 2.8K resolution, a 90Hz refresh rate, and a 100% sRGB color gamut. It uses an all-metal body, with a thickness of 15.9mm thick. Interfaces include Thunderbolt 4, full-featured USB-C, HDMI 2.1, RJ45 network port, microSD card reader, etc.
The ThinkBook 16+ is equipped with a 16-inch 16:10 screen with a 2.5K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 100% sRGB color gamut. It again uses an all-metal body with a thickness of 16.5mm. Interfaces include Thunderbolt 4, full-featured USB-C, HDMI 2.1, RJ45 network port, SD card reader, etc.
In terms of configuration, the i5-12500H featured in this series of notebooks comprises 4 large cores + 8 small cores, while the i7-12700H comprises 6 large cores + 8 small cores. These are assisted by LPDDR5 memory, and standard 512GB PCIe 4.0 SSD.
The Lenovo ThinkBook 14+ and ThinkBook 16+ thin and light notebooks will be up for sale starting March 28th in China and a global launch should follow soon.
Samsung is now rolling out the One UI 4 update based on Android 12 to the Galaxy Tab S7 FE. The rollout is currently limited to the UK but should be expanded to more regions pretty soon.
Carrying firmware version T736BXXU1BVC2, the update includes the February security patch and improves device stability and security (via SamMobile). You can also expect all of the One UI 4 + Android 12 goodies on it like dynamic wallpaper-based theming, new animations, updated widgets, redesigned quick settings, and system apps improvements.
Also, according to Samsung’s documentation, the new security patch fixes more than 50 privacy and security-related vulnerabilities.
If you reside in the UK, you may have already received the update. But if you haven’t, then you can also check for it manually by heading over to Settings > Software update and then downloading and installing it.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE was released in June 2021 with One UI 3.1.1 based on Android 11. It has since then hasn’t received any major update but today’s rollout changes that. The tablet comes with a 12.4-inch TFT display with a resolution of 1600 x 2560. Its Wi-Fi model is powered by the Snapdragon 778G chip while the 5G model gets the Snapdragon 750G.
For photography, you get a single 8MP camera at the rear and a 5MP camera at the front. The battery is sized 10,090mAh with support for 45W fast charging.
After revealing the rear of the realme GT NEO 3 with a couple of hands-on images, realme has now also shown off its front, again with a real-life image. The upper-mid-range, performance-oriented phone is all set for a March 22nd launch.
The image posted by Xu Qi, president of realme China, shows that the realme GT NEO 3 will have a tiny center-aligned punch-hole for the selfie camera on the front. The front is occupied nearly completely by the display, which is surrounded by very slim bezels, although there’s a slight chin at the bottom.
The executive earlier today posted that the realme GT NEO 3 packs a very sophisticated thermal solution called “Diamond Ice Core Cooling System Max” with a total heat dissipation area of 39606mm² and VC heat dissipation area of 4129mm².
From this, it’s fair to assume that the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 chip under the hood will remain cool even during long gaming sessions. It has also been confirmed that the phone will pack an independent display chip for better performance and lower power consumption.
Last but not least, the realme GT NEO 3 will be the world’s first phone to support 150W light-speed charging, which has been claimed to fill up its battery from 0% to 50% in just 5 minutes.
In February, Oneplus launched two smart televisions called OnePlus TV Y1S and OnePlus TV Y1S Edge alongside the OnePlus Nord CE 2 in India. A month later, the company is now said to release yet another smart TV in the country dubbed as OnePlus TV Y1S Pro. As the name suggests, it will be a better version of the former two models.

According to Ishan Agarwal (via 91Mobiles), the OnePlus TV Y1S Pro will go official at the OnePlus 10 Pro launch event in India. The two products will be also accompanied by OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z2.
The new television from the brand will look somewhat similar to the recently released models. However, it will have a higher resolution screen.
The tipster says that the OnePlus TV Y1S Pro will be offered in a single 43-inch version initially. Unlike the regular Y1S, this one’s panel will offer a resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels (4K).
The television will arrive with 2GB RAM and 8GB internal storage. Interestingly, it will boot Android TV 10 instead of Android TV 11 like the Y1S and Y1S Edge. Anyway, it will have support for Chromecast Built-in, Miracast, OnePlus Connect 2.0, Google Assistant, and Amazon Alexa.
As far as connectivity and ports are concerned, the TV will come with dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth, 3 x HDMI, and 2 x USB. Finally, it will pack 24W speakers with support for Dolby Audio and Dolby Atmos.
We expect OnePlus to disclose the date for the OnePlus 10 Pro’s Indian launch event soon. At the same time, we are also looking forward to the pricing leak of all three products.
The OnePlus 8, OnePlus 8 Pro, and OnePlus 8T are beginning to receive the stable version of Android 12-based ColorOS 12 in China.
Users on public beta builds began receiving the update as OTA on March 16th, while users on HydrogenOS 11 are getting the same as part of a batch rollout that started March 17th.
OnePlus acknowledges that there are a couple of bugs common to the three devices on the build, though. Firstly, the status bar may occasionally show the camera indicator despite it not running, and secondly, face unlock may fail to work sometimes. When the latter strikes, the fix is simple — just restart the device or re-add the face.
Do note that the update being discussed here is only being rolled out in China at the moment but it should be rolled out globally as well soon enough, likely with the aforementioned bugs fixed.
Some global variants of the OnePlus 8, 8 Pro, and 8T are already undergoing testing through the OxygenOS 12 Open Beta program. Enrolled users get to enjoy various new goodies like a new system interface, adjustable dark mode, Shelf changes, Work-Life Balance feature, and more.
It’s worth mentioning here that OxygenOS 12 marks the software’s departure from being an independent skin and uses the same base as ColorOS 12. There were plans to unify the two skins further with a “Unified OS” but these were shelved.
Huawei had launched its latest Nova 9-series smartphone in its home market China, dubbed as Huawei Nova 9 SE, just a couple of days ago in two memory variants. The phone is now finally available for purchase from today, i.e. 18th March.
The 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage is priced at 2,199 yuan (~$346) while the 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage model costs 2,399 yuan (~$378).
The Huawei Nova 9 SE features a 6.78-inch IPS LCD display with a centrally positioned punch-hole. The screen produces a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2388 pixels, a refresh rate of 90Hz, and a touch sampling rate of 240Hz.
Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 SoC and has a 4,000mAh battery that supports 66W fast charging. The phone boots into EMUI 12 and similar to other Huawei phones, this one too lacks Google apps and services.
In the camera department, the device has a 108-megapixel primary camera, which is coupled with an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens, a 2-megapixel depth sensor, and a 2-megapixel macro camera. On the front side, the smartphone has a 16-megapixel snapper for taking selfies and video calling.
As for the connectivity features, the device supports the usual set, including dual SIM support, 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, NFC, and a USB-C port are also present on the device. For security, it also has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.
Realme has been teasing some of the key features of the upcoming Realme GT Neo3 flagship smartphone ahead of the phone’s official launch in its home market China next week on 22nd March.
In the latest teaser poster shared by Xu Qi, Vice President of Realme, President of Realme China, and President of Marketing for the company, it has been confirmed that the upcoming Realme GT Neo3 is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC.
The Dimensity 8100 processor will be coupled with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 internal storage. Along with that, it has also been confirmed that the smartphone will pack an independent display chip for better performance and lower power consumption.
Based on the information available so far, the Realme GT Neo3 smartphone will feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ screen resolution and a punch-hole cutout for housing the front-facing camera.
The phone will have a triple-camera setup on the back panel that will consist of a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 primary sensor, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 2-megapixel macro sensor. On the front side, the device will have a 16-megapixel snapper for taking selfies and video calling.
It will be running the Android 12 operating system out-of-the-box with the company’s own Realme UI on top. The phone will be powered by a 4,500mAh battery and is touted to be the world’s first to come with 150W light-speed fast charging technology. Realme says that the device goes from 0% to 50% in just 5 minutes.

Honor is unveiling its Earbuds 3 Pro headphones in its home market of China after announcing the revolutionary headphone back in February. The Honor Earbuds 3 Pro headset is being projected as a device with many firsts. The device is available for pre-ordering in China from March 17 while actual sales begin on March 25.
Honor Earbuds 3 Pro is the first coaxial dual-unit with a large amplitude moving coil and ceramic tweeter. It is also showcased as the first to garner an A-level high-end noise reduction certification. The Earbuds 3 Pro is the first earbuds to support body temperature measurement, with an impressive accuracy band of 0.3 degrees Celsius. To cap the list of firsts for the sleek earbud, it comes with 5C fast charging technology.
The earbud sports an exquisite and compact design and weighs about 5.1g. It is small and pebble-shaped. It offers a double vent hole front and rear acoustic cavity conduction design. The earphones are designed to effectively balance air and sound pressure for an optimized listening experience. It is compatible with iOS and Android devices including Honor and Samsung smartphones.
The AI credentials of the Earbuds 3 Pro are also impressive, as AI sound effect equalization and AI body temperature monitoring are possible. The fast charging technology means that the device can be fully charged in under 30 minutes. The battery and the charging case of the Earbuds 3 Pro combine to offer up to 24 hours of playback, although the battery life is reduced when using noise reduction.
The Honor Earbuds 3 Pro is priced at 899 yuan (~$142) in China, which as expected, is significantly lower than its price in Europe which is €199 (~$221). We expect that the impressive Honor earbuds will subsequently be available in other markets after its China unveiling.
Two amazing 2022 gaming phones are already on the shelves. If you are an advanced gamer or an esports lover, you will surely like the new REDMAGIC 7 Pro by Nubia and the Lenovo Legion Y90. None of these devices was released by a mainstream brand in the smartphone market, but at the moment, they are the best gaming phones out there. After their release, a lot of people are wondering which one is the best between these two handsets. We decided to answer this question through a comparison between the specifications of the Nubia REDMAGIC 7 Pro and the Lenovo Legion Y90.

Design
Both the phones come with an aggressive and gaming-centric design. It is hard to choose the most suggestive one and it mostly depends on personal tastes. The Lenovo Legion Y90 is very interesting because it comes with an RGB light panel on the rear side. The REDMAGIC 7 Pro is more compact and built with premium materials: glass for the back and aluminum for the frame (aviation aluminum, to be accurate). The Lenovo flagship includes four ultrasonic buttons for gaming, while the Nubia one comes with pressure sensitive zones with a 500 Hz touch sampling rate. For me, it is very hard to make a choice: which is your favorite phone when it comes to design? You can let us know in the comment box below this comparison.
Display
It looks like the REDMAGIC 7 Pro has a superior display in terms of image quality. It comes with a 6.8-inch panel sporting a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, one billion colors, and a 120 Hz refresh rate. On the other hand, the Lenovo Legion Y90 has better display specifications for gaming: the screen has a wider diagonal of 6.92 inches and a higher 144 Hz refresh rate, as well as higher brightness. It retains the Full HD+ resolution (with 1080 x 2460 pixels) and the HDR10+ certification. The fingerprint scanner is embedded in the display on both these gaming phones. With these handsets, you also get stereo speakers, but the REDMAGIC 7 Pro has superior audio and it is the only one with a 3.5 mm audio jack.
Specs & Software
The most important advantage of the Lenovo Legion Y90 and the REDMAGIC 7 Pro is definitely the hardware department. They are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 mobile platform running at a max frequency of 3 GHz: currently the most powerful chipset by Qualcomm. The Lenovo Legion Y90 provides up to 18 GB of RAM and it is also the first phone equipped with an SSD: that is why it wins the hardware comparison. The handset comes with a UFS storage of 512 GB and an additional SSD storage of 128 GB for a total of 640 GB. But REDMAGIC 7 Pro remains amazing with up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of internal storage. The operating system installed is Android 12 with custom user interfaces on top.
Camera
If you need a high-end camera phone, do not buy these handsets. They are gaming phones with flagship hardware but their cameras belong to the midrange segment. Between the two handsets, the most convincing camera phone is the Lenovo Legion Y90. It has a dual rear camera with a 64 MP main sensor, a 13 MP ultrawide lens, and 8K video recording support. But the REDMAGIC 7 Pro is not far away with its 64 + 8 + 2 MP triple camera.
The bigger battery of the Lenovo Legion Y90 allows for longer battery life. The RED MAGIC 7 Pro has a smaller 5000 mAh battery, but it features the fastest charging technology in the whole smartphone market, with a power of 135W.
Price
The starting price of the REDMAGIC 7 Pro by Nubia is €670/$743, while the Lenovo Legion Y90 starts from €570/$632 in its base variant. Both these phones are simply amazing for gamers and there is not a definitive winner, but now you know the differences and you can make a choice that makes sense.
