Some Interesting Smartphone Launches !
OnePlus 10R
OnePlus 9RT is out now and its performing out of expectations from the information shared by reviewers in their initial impressions and thought. I felt so like they are doing great compared to their competitor Samsung S21 FE. I can assure that 9RT is worth than S21 FE for this price for sure. Anyways let's comeback to the launch of 10R. What made me interesting to this phone is the chipset and the performance from 9RT. Yeah talking about the chipset here they uses Dimensity 9000 which makes a standout for the current situation. I have already done an article on Snapdragon 8Gen 1 chipset's launch and specs, where i have noted a problem of heating. Now experts states that it's the problem with manufacturer - Samsung. As you all know Samsung is the manufacturer of Snapdragon chipset from the launch of Snapdragon 888. And Snapdragon is facing major issue of over heating in mobile phones using both 888 and 8th gen 1 chipsets. So this is the chance for MediaTek to overlap Snapdragon in upcoming devices. Actually Snapdragon has got the potential and I can recommend those devices using them once they switch back the manufacturer to TSMC. So that's a considerable check point in upcoming devices for the time being.
Spec Sheet
The OnePlus 10R is could feature an AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rates and at least 8GB RAM paired to 128GB internal storage. The device could be launching towards the end of June, largely because of the delays that OnePlus faced in the release of its predecessor, the OnePlus 9RT in India. The device was originally slated to roll-out in October but issues around chipset shortage and Oxygen OS 12 stability pushed it to January 2022. The OnePlus 9RT is priced in the Rs.42,999 to Rs. 46,999 range and it was rumored that the upcoming OnePlus 10R (or would it be OnePlus 10RT in India?) could be had for a cheaper price due to the MediaTek chipset. So I think it would be priced around 35-38K.
Unexpected Google Products
Pixel 6a
The Pixel 6a is set to debut sometime in May 2022. Reports suggest that the upcoming Pixel 6a might have a similar design as the new Pixel 6 series with camera modules placed at a horizontal strip and a triple-tone colour scheme on the rear side. Rumours indicate that the phone could be the first affordable one from Google’s inventory to ditch an 3.5mm audio jack. The phone is expected to get a 6.2-inch OLED display. It could have Google’s in-house Tensor GS101 chipset on board. The same silicon sits under the vanilla Pixel 6 phone. The Pixel 6a will likely get at least 8GB of RAM. On the camera front, it is tipped to get a 50-mp sensor and an ultra-wide sensor. The phone might equip an 8-megapixel camera upfront. The Pixel 6a will flaunt a glass back and measure a dimension of 152.2 x 71.8 x 8.7mm. Actually this device remind me of the FE phones by Samsung but here Google really fooled all of us. Always India and some other countries always unlisted out of their best products and services. I can assure that this Pixel 6a is good but it's just glitter to our eyes from google. Always the gold is Pixel 6 and pro. I won't recommend to buy one of those. Let the phone come to hands let's see their performance and worth for the price or not.
Google is also rumoured to bring its first smartwatch around the same time. The Pixel smartwatch to debut on May 26. He even shared an alleged image of the Google Pixel smartwatch that showed the gadget feature a sleek round dial tied in three colourful straps- Blue, Orange, and Grey. The design somewhat reiterates Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Active 2, although the latter has a slightly thick body. Actually I'm really looking forward to this to see how really good the wear OS works. We already discussed about the experience and all earlier. They may also give updates on upcoming products on that day. Let's see how these all comes out for the time being it's - Edwin K Jayesh.
