Realme has been teasing the arrival of Realme X7 series in India since December. Hence, it was speculated that the company may announce it in the country at some point in January. Finally, the company began sending out invites for Realme X7 series launch event starting from today in India. The invite confirms that the Realme X7 lineup will land in India on Feb. 4.

The launch invites states that the Realme X7 series launch event will be held at 12:30 PM (local time) on Feb. 4 in India. The event will be streamed through YouTube and other social media accounts. To recollect, the Dimensity 800U powered Realme X7 and Dimensity 1000+ powered Realme X7 Pro was made official first in China in September last year.

— Ishan Agarwal (@ishanagarwal24) January 27, 2021

As it can be seen in Ishan Agarwal’s tweet, the launch invite includes a MediaTek chip with MT6853V text on it. The “TN” identifier mentioned on it is a giveaway that one of the Realme phones debuting on Feb. 4 in India is fueled by the Dimensity 800U. Hence, it appears that the Realme X7 could be landing in India as the company’s first Dimensity 800U powered smartphone in the country.

The Realme X7 has a 6.4-inch AMOLED display and a 4,300mAh battery. It has a 32-megapixel selfie camera and a 64-megapixel (Samsung GW1) + 8-megapixel (ultrawide) + 2-megapixel (macro) + 2-megapixel (depth) rear-mounted quad-camera system.

The Realme X7 Pro has a 6.55-iinch AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 4,500mAh battery. It is fitted with the same cameras that are found on the X7 model. However, it features a Sony IMX682 lens as the primary shooter. Both phones support 65W fast charging and are fitted with in-screen fingerprint sensors.

MediaTek’s latest chipsets, the Dimensity 1200 and Dimensity 1100, are both 6nm chipsets but its upcoming budget 5G chipsets under the Dimensity 700 and Dimensity 800 series may be built on larger node size.

Latest news says that the Taiwanese semiconductor company is planning to announce a new Dimensity 700 processor in the second quarter of the year while a new Dimensity 800 processor will be announced later at MWC 2021 which is scheduled for late June.

News of new chipsets should definitely sound exciting but that may not be the case for these new SoCs as it has been reported by Digitimes that they may be built using TSMC’s more mature 10nm or 12nm process. That sure sounds like the manufacturer is regressing seeing as the Dimensity 700 and Dimensity 800 chipsets are fabbed on TSMC’s 7nm node.

Sources have said that the focus for these new chips will be power-efficiency, sub-6GHz support, and multimedia and gaming performance. Our guess is that the chipsets will feature a CPU configuration with four Cortex-A55 cores and two Cortex-A76 cores. Differences between the chipsets should include CPU clock speed, maximum resolution display support, and number of GPU cores and clock speed.

These chipsets will go head-to-head against Qualcomm’s own Snapdragon 480 5G processor which has been released for entry-level and budget 5G smartphones.

OPPO’s Reno series has gotten a refresh six months after the Reno4 series was announced in China. The new Reno5 series was announced in China today and it comes along with a pro model.

Reno5 Series Design

The Reno5 series comes with an upgraded design language. OPPO says the new patented process uses a pyramid-like crystal structure for the glass back panel that gives it an extra shine. They have also added an oleophobic coating to reduce smudges. The Galaxy Dream version of the two phones has a color-shifting feature as a result of the different refractive indexes of the thousands of nano-film coating used. OPPO has also added a fluorescent coating to the top of the phone and the camera housing which absorbs light and then glows in the dark.

Both phones are also light and thin. The Reno5 is 172 grams with a thickness of 7.9mm while the pro model is 173 grams but is thinner at 7.6mm. The Reno5 and Reno5 Pro will be available in Galaxy Dream, Aurora Blue, and Moonlit Night color variants.

Reno5 5G Specs

The Reno5 has a flat 6.43-inch OLED screen with a 2400 x 1080 resolution. The display has a 90Hz refresh rate and a 180Hz touch sampling rate. It has a pixel density of 410 PPI and a peak brightness of 750 nits. There is a hole at the top left corner of the screen for the front-facing camera.

The standard model comes with the same Snapdragon 765G processor as its predecessors – the Reno4 5G and the Reno4 Pro 5G. Buyers will be able to pick up the phone in two configurations – an 8GB RAM version with 128GB of storage and a 12GB RAM version with 256GB of storage. The storage type is UFS 2.1 (dual lane) and there is no support for expansion.

There are four rear cameras on the back of the phone, though we are sure only two of them will get much use. The primary camera is a 64MP f/1.7 sensor with 6P Lens and it comes along with an 8MP f/2.2 ultrawide angle camera, a 2MP f/2.4 macro camera, and another 2MP f/2.4 camera for capturing depth details. The selfie camera is a 32MP f/2.4 sensor. There is no OIS but OPPO claims its electronic image stabilization does a good job.

There are a number of interesting camera features bundled with the phone. You can record from both the front and rear cameras at the same time; live HDR for videos even when recording at night; bokeh videos; and a professional portrait photo tool.

The Reno5 5G has a 4300mAh battery and supports 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging. It is also backward compatible with SuperVOOC and VOOC 3.0 and has support for 18W power delivery and Quick Charge.

Other features are an in-display fingerprint scanner, support for face unlock, dual SIM card (nano only), Bluetooth 5.1, USB-C, and an audio jack. OPPO ships it with ColorOS 11 based on Android 11.

Reno5 Pro 5G

The Reno5 Pro 5G has a slightly bigger display. It is a 6.55-inch curved OLED panel with the same resolution as the standard variant. It also has a punch hole, a 90Hz refresh rate, and a 120Hz touch sampling rate. Its peak brightness is also much higher at 1100 nits.

OPPO specifically states on the website that the Reno5 phones use displays sourced from different manufacturers, so there may be a difference in the displays of different units due to the varying manufacturing technology. The display supplier is stated on the retail box of the phone.

Unlike the Reno4 Pro 5G that has a Snapdragon 765G processor, the Reno5 Pro 5G is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 1000+ processor. It comes in the same configuration as the standard model.

For cameras, OPPO has carried over the exact configuration from the standard model but the 32MP camera has a slightly lower field of view. You also get practically the same camera features.

The Reno5 Pro has multifunctional NFC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, and a USB-C port but skips the audio jack. It has dual SIM support and runs Android 11 out of the box. Its battery capacity is 4350mAh with 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast wired charging along with support for the other charging protocols as the standard model.

Price and Availability

The standard model is ¥2699 (~$413) for the 8+128GB version but if you want more RAM and storage, you can pick up the 12+256GB version for ¥2999 (~$458). The Reno5 Pro 5G is priced at ¥3399 (~$519) for the 8+128GB version while the 12+256GB version is ¥3799 (~$580). Both phones will be available for purchase starting December 18 but they can be pre-ordered now.

There is a New Year’s Edition of the Reno5 Pro 5G that has 8GB RAM and 128GB of storage but it will go on sale on December 29.

The Huawei Mate 40 series is all set to go official on Oct. 22. After launching the Mate 40 series, the company will shift its focus to the Nova 8 series. A reliable tipster from China has claimed that the Nova 8 will be announced in November.

Apart from claiming that the Nova 8 series is coming next month, the tipster did not share new information on the specifications of the expected devices. Past reports have revealed that the Nova 8 family will include three handsets such as the Nova 8 SE, Nova 8, and Nova 8 Pro. It is speculated that the HJC-AN00 / TN00 and JSC-AN00 / TN00 model numbers are associated with the Nova 8 models.

The alleged Nova 8 Pro had recently appeared in leaked shots to reveal that its screen features curved edges and a pill-shaped cutout for its dual selfie snappers. It is speculated that the Nova 8 Pro has an OLED panel that offers a 120Hz refresh rate. The device could be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ chipset and it may arrive in China with a price tag of 3,999 Yuan (~$598).

Editor’s Pick: Huawei Mate X2’s design maybe similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 2: Patent

The alleged Nova 8 Pro can be seen sporting a similar display design. However, there are some elements that suggest that the handset that has appeared is not the Mate 40 Pro. First, the curved edges of the smartphone in the leaked shots are not as curvy as the waterfall screen that will be available on the Mate 40 Pro. Also, the top edge of the phone seems to be fitted with an earpiece, which the Mate 40 Pro is unlikely to feature.

Recent reports have revealed that the Huawei Nova 8 Pro will come with specs like 120Hz OLED screen and Dimensity 1000+ 5G chipset. It is likely to be priced at 3,999 Yuan (~$585).

The Huawei Nova 8 may come with a 90Hz display and Dimensity 820. The device could be priced at 3,299 Yuan (~$483). The Nova 8 SE with specs like Dimensity 800, 8 GB of RAM, and 128 GB of storage could be coming with 2,799 Yuan (~$410).

Reno4 5G and Reno4 Pro 5G phones were made official in China in June. Fresh information reveals that the company could be planning to launch another Reno series phone called Reno4 SE in the home market. A Chinese leakster has shared the entire specifications of the Reno4 SE along with its speculated pricing.

OPPO Reno4 SE specifications (Rumored)

The leak states that the OPPO Reno4 SE will have a punch-hole display of 6.43 inches. The S-AMOLED E3 screen is expected to offer a 20:9 aspect ratio, Full HD+ resolution, and 90Hz refresh rate.

According to the tipster, the Dimensity 800 chipset could fuel the Reno4 SE. The phone may come with 8 GB of RAM and built-in storage of 128 GB. The phone may arrive with 65W fast charging support for its 4,300mAh dual-cell battery.

For capturing selfies, the Reno4 SE may possess a Samsung GD1 32-megapixel front camera. The rear side of the phone will have a triple camera system featuring the Sony IMX586 48-megapixel as the main camera, a superwide lens of 2-megapixel that will be also capable of shooting macro shots, and a B&W portrait shooter of 2-megapixel. The thickness of the device is 7.85mm and it weighs 169 grams.

In August, China’s TENAA telecom authority had certified an OPPO phone with PEAM00 / PEAT00 model number. The specifications of the smartphone match with Reno4 SE’s leaked specs. Hence, it is likely that the PEAM00 / PEAT00 smartphone could be arriving in China as OPPO Reno4 SE.

OPPO Reno4 SE pricing (Rumored)

The OPPO Reno4 SE could be priced at 2,599 Yuan (~$380) for the 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage. The device may rival the likes of Vivo S7 and Realme X7 in the Chinese markets.

At the beginning of this year, Huawei announced the Huawei Nova 7i smartphone and in April, it introduced Nova 7 SE, Nova 7, and Nova 7 Pro. In December last year, the company had announced Nova 6 series. Hence, it is speculated that after the Mate 40 series of flagship phones that may go official this month or in October, the Chinese firm may announce the Nova series by the end of the year. A tipster from China has shared speculated information on the Nova 8 series.

The tipster claimed that the Huawei Nova 8 series will have three models. The Nova 8 SE could be equipped with Dimensity 800 chipset. The Nova 8 SE and Nova 8 Pro could be featuring Dimensity 800U and Dimensity 1000+ chipset, respectively.

Editor’s Pick:  Huawei Chairman: Continued investment in HiSilicon can help Kirin chips in this crisis

The Huawei Nova 7 series was driven by chipsets like Kirin 810, Kirin 820, and Kirin 985. However, it appears that due to the recent revision in the trade ban, the upcoming Nova 8 series may not feature chipsets. This could be the reason why recently announced phones such as the Enjoy 20 5G and Enjoy 20 Plus 5G are fueled by the Dimensity 720 SoC.

The leakster has speculated on the pricing of the 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage versions of the Nova 8 SE, Nova 8, and Nova 8 Pro. These variants could be priced at 2,799 Yuan (~$409), 3,299 Yuan (~$482), and 3,999 Yuan (~$585). There is no official on the arrival of the Nova 8 series from Huawei since it currently focused on the launch of the Mate 40 series of flagship phones.

Recent reports have revealed that the FRA-AN00a / FRL-TN00 model number belongs to the upcoming Huawei Enjoy 20+ smartphone. The ‘FRA’ is the model number of the device is a short form of its ‘Franklin’ codename. Past reports had claimed that the Huawei Enjoy 20 Plus will be powered by the Kirin 820 chipset. However, a well-known tipster from China has claimed that Kirin SoC has been replaced by a MediaTek’s low-end 5G chipset.

MediaTek now has a couple of low-end 5G chipsets such as Dimensity 800, Dimensity 720, and the recently announced Dimensity 800U. It remains to be seen which of these will be powering the Enjoy 20+. As far as the other specs are concerned, the Enjoy 20+ is expected to arrive with a notch-less LCD panel with Full HD+ resolution support. It will feature an elevating selfie camera.

The leakster further stated that a 48-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera setup will be available on the rear shell of the Huawei Enjoy 20. The phone will draw power from a 4,200mAh battery that will support 40W fast charging. The handset measures 8.95 in thickness and weighs 197 grams.

Editor’s Pick: Rumor: Huawei is working on a tablet with a high refresh rate

Probably, the recently announced revision in the ban on Huawei may have caused it to swap Kirin SoC with the MediaTek chip on the Enjoy 20+. On Aug. 17, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) that belongs to the U.S. Department of Commerce issued a revised ban on Huawei since it was found using evasive measures. In May, the US administration extended the ban on Huawei which prevented it from obtaining semiconductors without a special license. However, it was reportedly found that Huawei had been purchasing American components through third-party companies. The ban that was further revised on Aug. 17 brings a ban on 38 more companies affiliated with Huawei across 21 countries.

This further limits Huawei from accessing U.S chipset and prevents it from circumventing U.S. laws by alternative chip production and providing off-the-shelf (OTS) chips produced with tools obtains from the U.S. Probably, Huawei already knew that it would happen sooner or later as this could be the reason why it recently ordered 120 million chips from MediaTek. It is speculated that seven of the phones released this year by Huawei will be fueled by MediaTek chips.

MediaTek made a comeback into the high-end and mid-range smartphone chipset segment last year with the introduction of Dimensity 5G chips. But for some unknown reasons, handsets with these SoCs have remained exclusive to China for a very long time. Thankfully, they are now confirmed by the company to debut in global markets sometime in Q3 2020 (current quarter).

The first-ever Dimensity series chipset by MediaTek is Dimensity 1000. But there is not a single smartphone in the world with this chip. Instead, we have got a device powered by Dimensity 1000L (OPPO Reno3 5G) and Dimensity 1000+ (iQOO Z1 5G) respectively. These two chips are toned-down and beefed-up models of the standard Dimensity 1000, which is yet to see the light of the day.

Further, the Taiwanese chipmaker continued to debut a number of Dimensity mid-range 5G chipsets such as Dimensty 800, Dimensity 820, and Dimensity 720. These chips power some of the cheapest 5G smartphones available in the Chinese market.

But as mentioned in the beginning, none of them is available outside China. However, we might soon see them powering smartphones sold in global markets. MediaTek itself confirmed in its Q2 2020 earning call.

We think the LG Velvet series handset spotted on Google Play Console with Dimensity 800 could be the first-ever MediaTek Dimensity 5G smartphone for international markets. That’s not all, we may also witness the launch of already available Chinese Dimensity handsets in global markets.

After teasing the upcoming smartphone, Realme has now confirmed that the company will launch the Realme V5 smartphone in China. Now, the brand has revealed the launch date, confirming that it will be launched on 27th July.

While the company has teased the smartphone’s design through teasers, nothing about the device’s specifications and features has been revealed by the company so far. But, we have some idea about what to expect.

Realme has said that the phone will be made up of a brand new material. It seems that the device will have an AG glass back with matte-finish and will feature a larger Realme branding.

Recently, RMX2111/RMX2112 5G smartphones got certified by TENNA, which reveals that the phone will come with a 6.5-inch Full HD+ LCD display with a 20:9 aspect ratio and a punch-hole cutout from the front-facing camera.

From the TENAA listing, it seems that we could see Realme launch the V5 series of smartphones and just a single phone. There could be some other variants of the Realme V5 as well, including the Pro model. To know for sure, we’ll have to wait for few more days.

Honor announced its large screen flagship, the Honor X10 Max in China today. This is the company’s largest smartphone in 2020 featuring a massive 7.09-inch display, ideal for entertainment and gaming. The phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 800 chipset, making it the third such Huawei/ Honor device in the past few weeks.

Honor X10 Max 5G Design & Display

The phone follows a similar design scheme as the Honor X10 that was announced back in May. This includes a rectangular camera housing and a slightly curved back. However, instead of a pop-up selfie camera like the Honor X10, the Max features a traditional waterdrop display on the screen. In case you are wondering, the Max retains the 3.5mm headphone jack as well as the side-mounted fingerprint (power button) similar to its smaller sibling.

The Honor X10 Max measures 174.37 x 84.91 x 8.3mm and weighs 227 grams. Clearly it’s not going to be a device for one-handed use. But still, the company has managed to shave off some bezels on the new model. If you recall, the 2018 Honor 8X Max with a 7-inch+ display had a slightly larger form factor: 177.6 x 86.3 x 8.1 mm.

You get a large 7.09-inch IPS LCD display with 1080p resolution. The LCD panel supports 100% DCI-P3 color gamut and HDR10. It’s pretty bright as well with a peak brightness of 780 nits.

The Honor X10 Max comes with an RGBW panel instead of the traditional RGB. The additional W – white subpixels will reduce the power consumption of the panel when white is being displayed. Therefore, Honor claims that by using an RBGW panel, the X10 Max will ensure reduced power consumption as compared to traditional LCD panel phones. The panel also filters out harmful Blue light (415-455nm) via software.

Note that the display doesn’t support a high refresh rate. So it’s a standard 60Hz panel.

Honor X10 Max Hardware

Under the hood, the Honor X10 Max is powered by the Dimensity 800 5G chipset. You get to choose between 6GB RAM and 8GB RAM and up to 128GB of internal storage. It’s clear that the company is looking to keep the price low as you don’t even get a 256GB ROM option.

The primary camera on the phone is a 48MP shooter that’s paired with an 8MP ultrawide and 2MP depth sensor. Up front, you get an 8MP selfie shooter on the waterdrop notch.

Given the humongous size of the screen, the phone features an appropriately sized battery too. You get a 5000mAh battery with 22.5W fast charging, much larger than X10’s 4300mAh capacity.

The Honor X10 Max also features dual 1217 linear stereo speakers with smart PA for amplifying its sound. The phone also supports Huawei Histen 6.1 sound.

Other features include 802.11 ca Wi-Fi, AGPS, Glonass, Beidou, and NFC.

Honor X10 Max Price & Availability

The Honor X10 Max comes in three colors: Racing Blue, Black, and Silver. There are three variants of the device and the pricing is as follows.

Earlier today, Honor confirmed that the Honor X10 Max will be debuting in China on July 2. Soon after the confirmation, a well-known Chinese tipster shared the specs sheet of the smartphone. The smartphone is now up for reservations in China through Suning.com. The listing has the front renders of the smartphone. Through a new Weibo post, the same tipster has revealed some vital information on the screen of the X10 Max.

According to the tipster, the Honor X10 Max features a screen supplied by Japan Display (JDI). As previous rumors had claimed, the X10 Max’s display supports 100 percent DCI-P3 color gamut. It supports the highest brightness of 780nits.

Honor announced the Honor X10 5G in China last month. The Chinese firm is now gearing up to launch another X10 series phone called the Honor X10 Max. The handset will be arriving as a spiritual successor of the Honor 8X Max that debuted back in 2018. Today, Honor released an official confirmation through its Weibo account that the Honor X10 Max will be made official on July 2.

The Snapdragon 690 Mobile Platform has been announced as the first Snapdragon 600-series 5G chipset. The processor should appear in affordable 5G phones later this year; a category that is currently dominated by MediaTek with its Dimensity 800 5G processor. If you want to know which processor is more powerful, you are on the right page.

Node size

The Snapdragon 690 is built on Samsung’s 8nm LPP process while the Dimensity 800 is built on TSMC’s FinFET 7nm process. A smaller node size translates to better efficiency, so MediaTek has got this round.

CPU

The two chipsets are octa-core processors but with different core arrangement. The Snapdragon 690 uses a 2+6 core arrangement while the Dimensity 800 uses a 4+4 core arrangement. Below are their CPU configurations:

• Snapdragon 690 = 2x Kryo 560 cores (Cortex-A77) clocked at 2.0GHz + 6x Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.7GHz
• Dimensity 800 = 4x Cortex-A76 cores clocked at 2.0GHz + 4x Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 2.0GHz.

So which chipset has better CPU performance? The Cortex-A77 cores in the Snapdragon 690 are definitely more powerful than the Cortex-A76 cores in the Dimensity 800. However, there are just two of them whereas the Dimensity 800 has four Cortex-A76 cores. The higher number of performance cores, albeit less-powerful ones, should result in better performance for the Dimensity 800 over the Snapdragon 690. The Cortex-A55 cores are also clocked higher on the Dimensity 800. MediaTek wins this round too.

EDITOR’S PICK: Samsung may not supply Huawei with chips for its smartphones

GPU

The Snapdragon 690 has an Adreno 619L GPU inside it while the Dimensity 800 has a Mali-G57 GPU. Which GPU is more powerful? First, there is no benchmark result for the Snapdragon 690 5G but we can infer its GPU performance from that of close siblings.

Based on the naming, the Adreno 619L should be more powerful than the Adreno 618 GPU inside the Snapdragon 720G. But that may not entirely be the case.

Qualcomm is known to use a higher nomenclature for some GPUs that are not practically more powerful than those with a lower number, though they may have some additional features.

When we compared the GPU of the Snapdragon 720G against that of the Snapdragon 690, the only difference seems to be the Adreno 619L having support for DX12 while the Adreno 618 doesn’t. Based on this, we believe the Adreno 619L should offer similar GPU performance to the Adreno 618.

Comparing the AnTutu results of the Huawei Enjoy Z 5G which is powered by the Dimensity 800 and that of the Realme 6 Pro powered by the Snapdragon 720G (Adreno 618), the Mali-G57 is a much more powerful GPU. Even if the Adreno 619L scores higher than the Adreno 618, the chances of it catching up to the Mali-G57 are really slim.

Other features

The two chipsets support Bluetooth 5.1 but only the Snapdragon 690 supports Wi-Fi 6. The two SoCs also support FHD+ displays with a refresh rate up to 120Hz but the Snapdragon 690 also adds support for QHD+ displays at 60Hz.

Conclusion

The Dimensity 800 is definitely the more powerful processor when it comes to CPU and GPU performance. We expect more phones powered by the chipset will continue to launch but it may lose some of its share of the budget 5G smartphone market to Qualcomm. With the arrival of the Snapdragon 690, it should be the chipset of choice for manufacturers that will be launching their products outside China.

Some manufacturers that have said they will launch Snapdragon 690 phones are HMD Global, LG, Motorola, Sharp, and TCL. For Dimensity 800 phones, we expect more from brands such as Xiaomi, Huawei/Honor, OPPO, and ZTE to continue using the chipsets. If you want to grab a Dimensity 800 phone, your options include Huawei’s Enjoy Z 5G, OPPO A92s, and the ZTE Axon 11 SE 5G.

HMD Global has announced just one 5G smartphone and that is the Nokia 8.3 5G. The Snapdragon 765G-powered phone is yet to go on sale but when it does, it will cost as much as €599 which is pretty expensive for a mid-range device. If you don’t mind waiting, you will be able to get a cheaper 5G Nokia phone in the future.

An exclusive report by Nokia Power User has revealed that HMD Global is developing an affordable Nokia 5G phone that will be powered by one of MediaTek’s Dimensity 800 series processors. The particular chipset was not mentioned, so it may be the Dimensity 800 or the Dimensity 820.

The specific device was also not mentioned but it most likely will not be the Nokia 7.3 as the Nokia-focused blog said a source informed them it may come with a Snapdragon processor. The Nokia 7.3 is also revealed to have both a 5G and a 4G prototype at the moment.

The possible time frame for the release of this Dimensity  800 series affordable 5G Nokia phone is stated to be in early 2021 according to the source. This is more than six months away and a pretty long time at that.

If HMD Global is serious about catching up to its competitors, it will have to launch this affordable 5G phone device this year; even before the fourth quarter.
