iQOO 3 : Worth buying in 2021?

iQOO, for those of you who don’t know, is a subsidiary of Chinese manufacturer Vivo, whose Parent company, in-turn is BBK Electronics. The first smartphone that iQOO launched here in India was the iQOO 3 , which quite surprisingly launched at a good price, considering what it came packed with. It was launched at 37K INR. But in a year’s time, the price’s has dropped significantly. It currently retails at 25K on Flipkart . iQOO 3 Shot on iPhone 5s (Blogger compression killed it -_-)  Having got it on Flipkart, I’ve been using the iQOO 3 for about two weeks now and here’s my review of the same.  Performance The iQOO 3’s got 2020’s flagship SoC, Snapdragon 865 . And just like any other flagship chip, this too performs exceptionally well. Day-to-day tasks are child’s play and graphically intensive tasks too are handled really well. For me, who previously used the Redmi 7, with the Snapdragon 632, this feels so much faster. What betters the experience is the 8 Gigabytes of DDR5 RAM...

October 13 : A Big One!

The title for this one might be a bit peculiar, but it's really going to be a BIG day (In the tech world). Why?
Apple is launching its iPhone 12 lineup, which was one of the most anticipated phone of the year. As always, their launch is going to be simplest of all. And ZERO hype is created by Apple, just a simple poster with the caption, "Hi, Speed."

Here are some of it's EXPECTED highlights:

  • 4 Variants: iPhone 12 (May also be called as iPhone 12 Mini, iPhone 12 Max, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max
  • The difference between the Pro and the Non-Pro will be in the performance and the cameras, with the Pro variant having a higher hand. 
  • A14 on the non-Pro and a more powerful one on the Pros. This time, with most smartphone manufacturers trying to be future-proof, so is Apple. The iPhone 12 might have a 5G modem built-in with that monstrous A14 Bionic. 
  • The same AMAZING glass build with an aluminium frame. 
  • And as the legacy continues, even the iPhone 12s will have a really good LG display, maybe a higher refresh rate this time. Even if not, the displays on iPhones have always been great and you can surely expect the same this time as well. 
  • The cameras: The non-Pro variants might have a dual-camera setup and the Pro variants having a triple-camera setup and probably a LiDar sensor as well. And all these cameras are by Sony, which is known for exceptional cameras and it's the same case here.

So,  those were some of the EXPECTED specs of the upcoming iPhone 12 lineup. I'll also be uploading another blog once they're launched.
 This too was a short one, hope you liked it :)

 In the Second Apple event this year, the new generation iPads were launched featuring massive upgrades , which wasn't quite expected. The iPad 10.2 8th Gen and the iPad Air were launched in that event, both of which have featured in my previous blog ( Check it out here if you haven't yet ). Which one's the best value among them (including the Pro) and can it replace your laptop / consider it for your new laptop? Know it here:  Here's a bit about the iPad 10.2 Inch 8th Gen: Image Courtesy: Apple Powered by the A12 Bionic , which featured in the iPhone XS, XS Max and iPhone XR, was considered a very efficient and extremely powerful and capable chipset. Here too, the iPad 10.2 Inch 8th Gen delivers and it flies over our expectation. The A12 Bionic, along with the verywell optimised iPadOS , outperforms most budget laptops.  I'm saying this because, most budget PCs struggle to get past Video Editing.  It's " Cake Walk " for the iPad.  .
