The standout feature of the device is the 4,000 mAh battery which is said to offer a standby time of 34 days on 2G, 29 days on 3G and 30.5 days on 4G. As for the rest of its specs, what we’re look at are pretty common for a mid-range handset: 5-inch 720p IPS display 2GB RAM 16GB internal memory, microSD card slot for additional 32GB 64-bit octa-core SoC with eight Cortex A53 cores from MediaTek at 1....
Build and Design The first impression is the best impression, they say, and that’s unfortunately not in favor of Lenovo HT20. The polycarbonate housing feels rather cheap in the hand and the fact that it doesn’t feel dense isn’t reassuring either. The case is quite bulky and is not easily pocketable. The Lenovo branding boldly sits on the front and with the micro-USB port on the bottom accompanied by four LEDs representing battery status....

The launch hasn’t been made official by LG yet (at least not worldwide), but all the specs have leaked to a Dutch website. Instead of following Sony’s Xperia Z Compact example with top-of-the-line features in a smaller form-factor, LG has decided profit from the popularity of its larger namesake, as the specs of the smartphone seem to be rather disappointing. Here they are: 4.7 inch qHD 540 x 960 resolution LCD display 1....

The Sacred Games is akin to a part thriller part true story that dissects into the world of organised crimes, corruptions, power games and political ordeals with the Indian context. The series is also expected to traverse through the story of how the rich and the ones that weave power will go to extreme extents for their personal gains. Sacred Games is not just restricted to the present day political liaisons but it also imbibes the themes from the rather gruesome violence of the 1947 partition....
Confused? Let us explain. VoIP calls aren’t new. From Skype and Yahoo Messenger back then to WhatsApp and Google Duo calls now, VoIP calls have come a long way. But the limitation with these services is that it requires both the clients to have the same app/software to be installed in order for it to work. Wi-Fi calling aims to fix that as you can place and accept calls without the need for any app/software, with the only requirement being a Wi-Fi connection....
Noke is a Bluetooth enabled padlock that lets you control it through apps available for Android and iOS. Once you have downloaded the app, it automatically finds and pairs to your smartphone. By default, the lock is at idle, protecting your possessions. However, as soon as you press the skank, it wakes up and hooks up with the paired device. To make things even more convenient, Noke automatically unlocks itself if the paired device is at within 10 feet distance....
Nokia 7.2 Cameras Let’s begin with what appeals the most in the Nokia 7.2, the cameras. The new circular design of the module houses three camera lenses by Zeiss. The primary sensor is the now-famous Sony IMX 586 48MP shooter with an aperture of f/1.79. The secondary lens is a wide-angle shooter with a resolution of 8MP, and the third camera is just a depth sensor for portrait shots. It would have been nice to see a telephoto lens instead....
The Nokia 7 rocks the characteristic design that has been brought forward by the new HMD Global. Just like its other siblings, the Nokia 7 features an unibody built that has been achieved by using 7000 series aluminum. The rear features a 3D glass curvature and the edges sports diamond cut bevels. The mid-ranger comes in two color options – Gloss Black and Matte White. In terms of specs, the Nokia 7 comes with a 5....
The renders for the alleged OnePlus 8 Lite stem from the collaboration between 91mobiles and OnLeaks, which provides a 360-degree video to detail the same. Based on the CAD renders, it appears that the OnePlus 8 Lite will feature a flat display panel with a hole-punch cutout in the center, which appears to be the trend with smartphones going forward. Towards the rear, the phone seems to sport a rectangular camera module that houses two lenses along with a bunch of sensors....
Now, to retain its mojo, it is again stepping into the mid-tier segment with an all-new device, called OnePlus Nord. Nord, the name, represents North in European languages, and as per OnePlus, it signifies the company’s tread in its journey over the years — upwards, North! Let’s dive in to find out more about the device. OnePlus Nord: Design and Display In terms of design, the OnePlus Nord features an all-glass body with a plastic frame sandwiched in between....
The brand recently introduced the Oppo Enco Buds, and along with being completely and utterly wire-free, these buds also come with a highly affordable price tag of Rs. 1,999. Relatively routine looks The looks of the Oppo Enco Buds are nothing out of the ordinary. It is just a pill-shaped box with tiny round earbuds inside. The TWS only come in one color option that is white, and the combination of a glossy plastic build and the color white, which we suspect is not likely to age well....

FaceID, but no notch please We think Face ID is a must on the iPad Pro, simply because it would be so much more convenient to just look and unlock the display rather than look for the fingerprint sensor, which appears even tinier than it does on the iPhone, thanks to it being right next to an even larger display. We also think it would be kind of cool if all those sensors on the front would enable you to lock the display by just waving your hand across it – sometimes that is SO necessary to keep away those prying eyes (much more of an issue with a large display tablet than a smaller phone)....
Interestingly, all these three brands have of late been largely focusing on the premium side of the market, but the past few months have seen them go for this mid-stream. And no, we do not think the reduced expenditures spurred by the COVID pandemic has caused it – all three phones had been in the works for a while, well before the pandemic even became news. No, the main motive of the three brands seems to be to grab a bit of the very lucrative mid and upper mid-segment that lies below the premium one....
After a few alleged Redmi clones in its M series this year, Poco has again gotten into original mode and come out with what we think could well be the best phone you could get for under Rs 20,000. Moreover, it even manages to challenge the devices that have defined this segment for a few years now – the Redmi Note series. A Pro with hardly any cons The biggest strength of the Poco X4 Pro is that it does not really have any major weaknesses....
