It’s the start of the second half of this year, and we have some exciting launches in the pipeline. We have launches expected from the budget segment like the OnePlus Nord 2 and even from the flagship segment like the Huawei P50. There are also some camera and gaming-centric phones like the Realme GT 5G Master Edition and the POCO F3 GT. That said, buyers will get a variety of options to choose from in different price segments this month. 

Let’s have a look at the full list of the phones launching in July 2021

OnePlus Nord 2 

The OnePlus Nord 2 will be the successor to the original Nord that launched back in August 2020. With the successive launch of the original, the company is all set to once again offer a OnePlus experience on a budget. 

So far, we’ve seen that the phone will flaunt a similar design and form factor to that of the original OnePlus Nord. The smartphone should sport a 6.43-inch punch-hole AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate. 

In-display fingerprint scanner, 50MP triple rear cameras, and MediaTek Dimensity 1200 will be some highlights of the Nord 2. The phone should also pack a 4,500mAh battery with Warp Charge 30T. Finally, it is expected to come with Oxygen OS based on Android 12 out of the box. 

Xiaomi Redmi 10 Series 

The popular entry-level segment is all set to get a bunch of Redmi 10 devices. Xiaomi has already launched the Redmi Note 10 phones in major markets, and with the upcoming launch of Redmi 10 phones, buyers will be getting some variety to choose from. 

Just like last year, the Redmi 10 series will get a couple of versions. We can expect a vanilla Redmi 10, a Redmi 10A, and some other versions depending on the market. The specs for the series are still under wraps but as the series was teased recently, we can expect the phones to debut in the mid-end of July. 

Huawei Nova 8i (Update: Launched)

Huawei Nova 8i is on the leak spree for a while. Recently, the company confirmed that the phone will make its first appearance on July 7 in Malaysia. One of the major highlights of the phone will be the eye-catching camera island. 

Apart from it, the smartphone will sport a 6.67-inch IPS LCD screen, Snapdragon 662 processor, and a whopping 66W fast charging support. Huawei has already teased its fast charging speeds showcasing that the phone can go from 0% to 100% in just 38 minutes. 

It is worth noting that the phone will launch with the EMUI 11 operating system on top of the old Android 10. Rumors reveal that the phone will get the HarmonyOS update in the future. 

Vivo S10 

The Vivo S10 had made rounds on various certifications hinting for a launch closer than expected. The phone will succeed the Vivo S9 that launched earlier this year in China. The phone was recently spotted on Geekbench with MediaTek Dimensity 1100 SoC. 

It is said to come with 12GB of RAM and a battery with 44W fast charging support. As per its leaked specs sheet, the phone will be good at capturing pictures, thanks to its 108MP rear triple cameras and the 44MP selfie camera. Just like Huawei’s Nova 8i, the Vivo S10 will also boast fast charging support that will juice up the entire device in 38 minutes. 

With more certifications on the way, we can expect the device to hit the floors this month. 

Samsung Galaxy F22 

In between these Chinese giants, we have Samsung, touted to unveil a mid-range phone dubbed Galaxy F22. The Samsung Galaxy F22 has been officially scheduled to launch on July 6 in the Indian market. Fans can expect a Made in India 4G handset with crazy battery life. 

The Galaxy F22 will feature a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate. One bummer would be the rumored HD+ screen on the device. Other specs of the phone are quite impressive, a 6,000mAh battery, 48MP quadruple cameras, and a side-facing fingerprint scanner. 

Poco F3 GT

Xiaomi’s Poco is likely to launch the F3 GT in the Indian market. For those who are unaware, the phone has already made it to the Chinese market but the Indian launch has been delayed since last month. This month, Poco could bring it to the Indian market in the mid-range segment. 

Some of the specs of the gaming smartphone are a Dimensity 1200 5G chipset, 5,065mAh battery, and dedicated trigger buttons. The smartphone also has a 64MP triple rear camera and a 6.67-inch 120Hz OLED display. For all the gamers in India, this could be one of the gadgets you should be waiting for. 

Realme X9/ Realme GT 5G Master Edition 

Realme will launch a successor to the Realme X7 smartphone this month. Although an exact launch date is unknown, the leaks point out a July launch. The Chinese phone maker could launch a camera-centric phone in China dubbed Realme GT 5G Master Edition. 

The specs for the Realme X9 series are scarce but what we know is that it will be offering a flagship-like premium experience in the mid-range segment. The X9 could also be joined by a sibling dubbed Realme X9 Pro. The vanilla Realme X9 is tipped to offer Snapdragon 778G and the Realme X9 Pro will be powered by the Snapdragon 870 SoC. 

On the other hand, the Realme GT 5G Master Edition will sport 108MP triple rear cameras, a 6.5-inch screen, a 4,500mAh battery, and support for 65W rapid charging. Recently, there were talks that Realme is working with Kodak in co-producing a camera-centric device. Rumors are rife that the GT 5G master edition could be the one with Kodak powered camera. 

Huawei P50 Series 

Huawei P50 series is one the most anticipated flagship series launching this month. According to sources, the series will include a vanilla Huawei P50, a P50 Pro, and a P50 Pro+ smartphone.

Interestingly, the trio will come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset but not the usual 5G version. It is said that Huawei only has the consent to use 4G-enabled Qualcomm processors. The Chinese variants will be powered by the in-house Kirin 9000 SoC. 

Here we end with our list of the upcoming phones launching this month. Which one are you most excited about? Tell us in the comments.
