Following the success of Realme 1, the Oppo‘s sub-brand split up from its parent company to become an independent brand. Now, Realme is prepping up to launch the Realme 2, the successor of Realme 1 that was launched earlier this year.

The company has sent out media invites for the Realme 2 launch event, which is scheduled to take place in India on 28th August. Recently, the firm teased a couple of features of the upcoming phone, including the notched display and dual rear cameras.

Today, the company has confirmed that the phone will be backed by a 4,230mAh battery, which is an upgrade compared to the 3,300mAh battery on its predecessor.

Recently, the phone’s retail box and press renders were leaked online, which had revealed both the features that the company teased. The leaked render also confirms that there’ll be a fingerprint sensor on the back panel, unlike the Realme 1.

Currently, no more information is available regarding the phone. However, it is being speculated that the phone will carry a 6.23-inch Full HD+ display and pack MediaTek MT6771 Helio P60 processor — the same one that powers the Realme 1 and the newly announced Oppo F9 and F9 Pro. There’ll be a couple of variants of the phone, based on the memory configuration, which is believed to go up to 6GB.

While there’s no information about the phone’s pricing, we are confident that it’ll definitely be priced under Rs. 20,000 (approximately $285) to take on the likes of recently launched Xiaomi Mi A2. However, to know the phone’s specifications, pricing, and availability details, we’ll have to wait for the company to officially unveil the device, which doesn’t seem far away.

To recall, the Realme 1 comes with a 6-inch Full-HD+ display and is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio P60 SoC clocked at 2GHz with a dual-core AI-specific chip. It features a 13-megapixel rear camera and 8-megapixel front snapper. It runs on Android Oreo-based ColorOS and is fuelled by a 3,410mAh battery.

When 360 Mobiles announced the N6 Pro last year, the smartphone was said to have ticked all the boxes to emerge as the premium midrange king. The 360 N7 Pro seems to continue from where its predecessor left off and even adds more features to position the device ahead of its predecessor. The device is indeed a premium midrange phone at its best as can be seen on the specs table. Also, the design is superb, a flawless beauty the N7 Pro is, as can be seen from the hands-on pictures which we bring you in this article.

The 360 N7 Pro is one of the few mid-range models which come with an all-glass body and you’ll agree this usually accords a classy look to the model. The device features a metal fuselage and a premium glass covering at the back. This joins the fullscreen glass display up at the front. The phone adopts a 5.99-inch FHD+ screen with a 2160x1080pixels resolution and 18:9 aspect ratio. The beautiful design is highlighted on the model with a red paint job on the metal fuselage on all four sides while the glass panel at the front and rear come in black. There is also a variant painted in black all around.

The N7 Pro is different from its predecessor in the arrangement of its rear shooters. While the N6 Pro dual cameras are aligned vertically at the centre, the N7 Pro is arranged horizontally at the top left corner with the LED flash at the side. The device equally packs a fingerprint sensor at the rear mounted at the centre. The rear cameras adopt a split design and are not stacked in the same housing as on the N6 Pro and N7 Lite. The 360 brand name and logo are also stamped at the bottom part of the back panel. In addition, the N7 Pro has a USB-C port and despite having a thin build, it still packs a 3.5mm audio jack at the top edge.

The premium mid-range model is bundled along with a silicon protective case, tempered glass protection for the display, an adapter and USB-C cable as well as a complimentary earphone inside its retail packaging box.

Aug 21, 2018

Xiaomi Poco F1 smartphone is launching tomorrow. It is the first phone that will introduce Xiaomi’s new sub-brand named Poco.

Most of the currently available affordable flagship phones such as OnePlus 6 and Honor 10 are priced between Rs. 30,000 and Rs. 40,000 in India. However, it is speculated that the highest configuration variant of the Poco F1 would be priced under Rs. 30,000. Here is all that is known about the Poco F1 smartphone.

Design

From the front, the Poco F1 handset appears looks like the Xiaomi Mi 8 smartphone that was unveiled in China few months ago. In other words, it borrows the notched display design from the Mi 8. The handset features a wider notch because it not only houses the selfie camera and but IR camera too with flood illuminator. Also, instead of the S-AMOLED screen on the Mi 8, Xiaomi has employed IPS LCD panel display on the Poco F1.

The Mi 8 smartphone features a glass rear, but the affordable Poco F1 is fitted with a polycarbonate rear. The vertical dual camera and a fingerprint scanner are positioned on the rear shell of the F1.

Specifications and Features

The Poco F1 is expected to house a 6.18-inch IPS LCD screen that will offer an aspect ratio of 18.7:9 and Full HD+ resolution. The Snapdragon 845 chipset is accompanied by liquid cooling technology for maintaining the internal temperature while performing processor intensive tasks on the phone. Moreover, it is expected to arrive with a big battery of 4,000mAh capacity that will carry support Quick Charge 3.0.

Here are the rumored storage and color variants of the Xiaomi Poco F1:

64 GB storage + 6 GB RAM – Russo Red, Steel Blue, Graphite Black and Gradient

128 GB storage + 6 GB RAM – Russo Red, Steel Blue, Graphite Black and Gradient

256 GB storage + 8 GB RAM – Steel Blue, Graphite Black, Gradient and Armoured (Kevlar)

The 6 GB RAM and 8 GB RAM variants of the Poco F1 have surfaced on Geekbench benchmarking platform with impressive single-core and multi-core scores. Hence, it appears that the powerful SD845 chipset coupled with a long-lasting battery will allow the Poco F1 to deliver unmatched flagship performance. No wonder the Chinese manufacturer is teasing the smartphone with taglines like “master of speed” and “blazing speed at all times.”

The dual camera setup of the Poco Fi is expected to feature a 12-megapixel primary sensor and a 5-megapixel secondary sensor. For shooting selfies, it could be featuring a 20-megapixel frontal camera. The front and rear cameras of the Poco F1 are expected to carry numerous AI features for optimized photo shooting experience.

The Android 8.1 Oreo OS overlaid with Xiaomi’s proprietary ROM, most likely MIUI 10 will come preinstalled on the smartphone. It will be coming with usual connectivity features such as dual-SIM support, 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, USB-C and 3.5mm audio jack.

Pricing

The 128 GB storage + 8 GB RAM variant of the Xiaomi Poco F1 is rumored to be priced around Rs. 25,000. This indicates that the base model of the phone may cost around Rs. 22,000 whereas the model with 256 GB storage + 8 GB RAM may arrive with a pricing of Rs. 29,000. Apart from Mi.com, Flipkart will be the only third-party retailer that will be selling the Poco F1 smartphone in India.

Xiaomi is currently the number one smartphone brand in India thanks to mid-range Redmi and Redmi Note series phones. With the arrival of the affordable Poco F1, the Chinese manufacturer could be aiming to make it big in the flagship market in India which will make it possible to increase its market share in the country.

Huawei uses DSLR for Nova 3i camera samples, busted by its own brand ambassador

Aug 21, 2018

Huawei has been caught in an advert mess of its own doing. The manufacturer was “caught” using a DSLR in place of its own phone, the Nova 3/Nova 3i in this case for camera samples in a video ad.

The 30-second video ad which features Egyptian actress, Sarah Elshamy, has her significant trying to take a selfie of her while she tries to apply her makeup before he does. In the completed ad, the scene is to actually show off the AI beauty feature of the camera which takes beautified pictures of you that appears as if you have make-up on.

[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Kf7g2XEWwI[/embedyt]

Unfortunately, behind-the-scenes pictures posted by the actress on her Instagram page shows that in this particular scene, the man is actually not holding the Nova 3 or Nova 3i. He’s not even holding anything in this “selfie-taking position”, rather there is another man with a DSLR camera at an angle that makes it appear as if a selfie is being taken.

[envira-gallery id=”207161″]

We probably wouldn’t know that there was no actual selfie if not for Ms. Elshamy but seeing as a feature of the phone which may convince buyers to purchase the phone is being advertised and it has been revealed that the selfie was not taken by the phone, prospective buyers may not be so eager to buy any of the two phones anymore.

Ms. Elshamy has since deleted the picture but the damage has been done already. Huawei will most likely offer an explanation and an apology as to what happened and might even throw in a freebie or discount to entice customers but the deed has been done already.
