Huawei’s sub-brand Honor’s smartphones have always been known for value. And Honor 5 x And Honor 7 (Review) smartphones have retained this reputation. Honor 5X and Honor Holly 2 Plus in January Launch After being, the company has now launched its new smartphone Honor 5C.

This new product of Honor falls in the mid-range segment. Launched for Rs 10,999, this smartphone will compete with the most crowded budget segment smartphone in India. Honor 5C collision Moto G4 Plus, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 and Lenovo Zook Z 1 Like it will be from a great smartphone. Today we will review Honor 5C and know what shortcomings and features are in the smartphone.

Look and design
Honor 5C looks largely like Honor 5X. The rear panels of both phones are largely similar, especially brushed metal finish. The phone shows a slight difference in the phone towards the edges and at the bottom where the design and texture is slightly different from 5X. We feel that the 5C smartphone is far better than 5C. The camera lens and fingerprint sensor is also on the rear like the previous phone.

Apart from this, some other changes have also been made in this phone, the most important of which is the size of the phone. Honor 5C has a 5.2 -inch small screen. It is quite easy to catch the phone as it is small. When it comes to weight and thickness, the phone is quite different. Honor 5C looks quite strong.

The side of the phone is under standard layout. Power and volume buttons are given on the right side while there is a sim tray on the left. The micro-USB port and speaker is a 3.5 mm shock at the bottom and upwards. However, the phone has two grills, but the right side of these is really a speaker. Apart from this, there are roams on the side of the phone, which makes it good in hand but the grip of the phone becomes a bit difficult.

The phone has a 5.2-inch full-HD IPS LCD screen which covers 68.7 parts in the front. The phone has on-screen Android buttons instead of capacitive touch button. Talk about the screen, it is quite bright but not too shiny. Along with this, the color is also quite dull and in general we found the screen less vibrant and muted. Most of the time the screen is sharp, but if you spend the video or spend most of the time in sunlight, then you may find the screen a bit dull.

The Honor 5C has a fingerprint sensor on the rear which can be used to unlock the app with the phone unlocking. The fingerprint sensor is always on the standby and it does its work well even when the phone is in sleep mode. The fingerprint sensor is accurate but is not better than some of the devices we rejected recently. You have to put the finger on the sensor for some time to unlock the phone.

Specification and software
Honor 5C has most mid-range specifications like 5X but there is some difference. The most important of these is the use of Kirin 650 processor, which has been created by Huawei’s subsidiary Hisilicon. This is the new mid-range processor of the company. 5C is quite different in terms of processor from 5X coming with Qualcomm Snapdragon 616 processor. It is worth noting that 16 NM Finnfate+ is used to make this processor which promises better performance. Along with this, this processor also claims to give better battery life than Qualcomm and MediaTek.

Honor 5C has 2 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage (expandable up to 128 GB via microSD card) and a 3000 mAh battery. However, in this price, you will also find smartphones with 3 GB or more RAM. Honor 5C gives a good memory management system from 2 GB RAM that keeps the app out of the RAM so that the phone runs without any trouble. However, the phone will have limited work related to graphics and works well under most common conditions.

Honor 5C runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow, above which EMUI of Huawei is given 4.1 Skin. The change in the old and new EMUI version does not matter much because its well-known look remains intact. Which includes single layer user interface, notification shed and quick setting menu. One of the most special feature magazine lock screens in this UI is still given which replaces the lock screen background with a new picture each time. The phone manager app is very useful and this can do all the work like controlling the system optimization function, data ujase, app locking and battery consumption.

A lot of new features have also been received from Android Marshmallow including better performance, dose mode for battery optimization, now on tap and new app permission system. The OS given in this phone from the OS given in the previous Honor device is far better. But still we will prioritize the device that comes with MIUI and CyanogenOS due to more customization and control.

Camera
Hunar 5C has a 13 -megapixler rear and an 8 -megapixel front camera. Both cameras can record up to 1080 pixels and the rear camera has a single LED flash. Apart from this, there are HDR, slow-motion video, time laps videos and panorama mode.

The software found some more fun tricks that include Pro and Pro Video Mode so that you can adjust every setting, light painting, food mode and all-focus. The setting menu includes control, smile capture, self -timer and resolution for object tracking. There is a quick switcher between photos and videos with front and rear camera switcher, flash and filter.

Hunar 5C camera performance is better than Honor 5X. Photos from 5C come with good colors and detailing. The photos come fantastic in the well-lit settings and the pictures taken in low light are also fine. But there is a slight scatter in the pictures, but according to the phone coming in this price, the pictures are very good.

The focus speed has also improved from the previous phone and now the object tracking is better and the response is faster than before. The front camera has also improved. Macro shot is good and the camera brings good color and detailing pictures. However, like the second better camera phone available at this price, nothing special is found with the Honor 5C camera

Performance
Huawei did not provide its Hisilicon processor in Honor 5X. But the 5C has been given the Kirin 650 processor as usual. The performance of the phone is fantastic and the phone works well in almost every kind of situation. However, many better performing phones are available in other phones of this price. You will not get to see any special distress in Honor 5C.

The benchmarking test found good figures from Honor 5C. Graphics and video performance in the phone is fine but there is some problem while running several apps and playing heavy games simultaneously.

Honor 5C does not have any problem during the Qal quality, network and data connectivity. Despite the 3000 mAh battery, the battery life is also better than Honor 5X. In our video loop test, we got a battery life of 11 hours and 11 minutes from the phone and the battery is easily done at the time of normal use. Android dose mode helps a lot in reducing battery consumption and we note that despite 4G connectivity, the phone does not consume battery while not using.

Our decision
Honor 5C is a slightly better phone than its previous phone. Its high -capacity processors and little improvements in the camera make it better than 5X. The design and look of the phone is also better than before. There is not much to complain in the phone, especially with this price.

However, 5C cannot be called a tremendous phone. The phone does not have any special attractive feature and is an average device from all sides. If the price of the phone was a little less then it would have been better. Customers would prefer to buy some other phones like this Redmi Note 3 and Lenovo Zook Z1.

The demand for Sony brand’s mobile phone is steadily decreasing, although this Japanese electronics company is doing good work in the gaming and camera sensor department. After the Sony Xperia Z5 range, the company has introduced its new flagship phone under the X range. The smartphones of this range were launched at Mobile World Congress 2016.

Now talk about the company’s latest flagship handset Sony Xperia X Dual of. The Rs 48,990 Xperia X Dual clash with the big player in the market. Even though the specification of this phone is also weak compared to many affordable handsets, Sony has tried to overcome this deficiency by giving a lot of new in camera technology. Does Xperia X Dual prove its price correct? Let us know through its review.

Look and design
We were expecting a big change in the design since the name changes, but it did not see it. The new phone looks like Sony Xperia Z5 to a great extent. The company has reiterated the old formula with Xperia X Dual. As a result it is fantastic in appearance.

The entire metal body goes to its favor. It gives the phone a premium look and it also looks strong. The Xperia X dual smartphone has a 5 -inch screen. The texture is such that there is no problem in holding and gripping Xperia X dual.

Scratch protection is present on the screen of the phone. Two speakers are provided for Stereo Sound. The front camera, Sony’s logo and proximity sensor are on top.

The phone has been given metallic finish. The rear panel has Xperia logo, camera and flash. The top has a 3.5 mm socket. There is a power button on the right side. Camera buttons are also given on this side. Micro-USB ports are at the bottom. Hybrid dual-sim trays are present on the left side. You will not need an ejector pin to open the SIM tray. Your nails will be enough for this. It is worth noting that Xperia X is not a dual water resistant, which the company has now been presenting as a premium feature.

The fingerprint sensor in Sony Xperia X Dual is integrated in the power button, exactly like the Sony Xperia Z5. The sensor does not work in standby mode. For this, you have to bring the phone into active mode first. To do this, you have to press the power button and then keep the finger for a few seconds above the button. It works well many times and unlocks the phone rapidly, but not always.

Based on our experience, we can say that it is not the best place for fingerprint sensor. We did not have difficulty in using it many times.

The device has a 5-inch full-HD IPS LCD skin with a pixel density 441 PPI. Its screen is slightly smaller than the 5.2 -inch display of Xperia Z5, but you will not be able to tell the difference with open eyes. It is bright compared to the handset with AMOLED screen but is slightly weak in contrast, black level and color range.

Overall, the screen of Xperia X Dual is good. Sony has also made some useful changes to increase picture quality.

Specification and software
Most of the phones in this price segment are equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 chipset, but Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 chipset has been used in Sony Xperia X Dual. It has 3 GB RAM and 64 GB inbuilt storage. The funny thing is that Snapdragon 650 processor has also been used in Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, which is a quarter of this phone of Sony.

Coming with dual SIM 4G connectivity, this phone contains hybrid SIM slots, support for microSD cards up to 256 GB, Wi-Fi A/B/G/N/AC, Bluetooth 4.2 and NFC features. The phone has a 2620 mAh battery and supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 technology. By the way, we were given a mango 7.5 watt charger for the review. Sony’s popular stamina and ultra stamina mode are also given in this phone which will work to increase the battery life of your phone.

The Xperia X dual smartphone is equipped with Android 6.0.1 on which Sony’s Xperia UI has been used. There has been no change in the look of the interface. Notification sheds and Quick Toggle menu are like stock Android launcher. However, excessive apps on the phone are already installed and some of these cannot be removed.

This includes Amazon Kindle, AVG Protection, Clean Master, Hungama Play, Soni Live and a few select games. It is possible to disable them but not to remove permanently. Sony Live works to harass by sending notifications repeatedly. It can be blocked only through system settings. We think Sony is trying to popularize its partner apps. The app drawer is slightly different. Some additional features have been integrated into it.

Camera
Sony Xperia X Dual has a 23 -megapixel primary camera and a 13 -megapixel front camera. Both of them have used Sony’s own Examor RS sensor. The rear camera has LED flash. With both cameras, you will be able to record videos of full-HD resolution. The rear camera can record common videos from 60 frames per second and 120 frames per second slow motion video. The video recording 4 is not part of this handset that seems to be a shocking decision.

The camera app is made well. Flash comes with camera switcher, settings and gallery quick access. Standard shooting mode is superior auto, but you will be able to choose manual or video mode easily. The fourth option in the menu gives you access to AR Effect, Sweep Panorama, Timeshift and other features. You can also download additional camera apps through Sony’s Whats New App and Google Play. You are able to control a lot from the Settings menu.

It also has a digital image stabilization tool which has been named Standy Shot. This video tries to overcome the problems caused by moving during recording. But it does not emerge as an alternative to optical image stabilization from anywhere.

Sony Xperia X dual especially takes pictures with excellent color reproduction and details in good light. Due to the resolution of the picture, it is possible to capture maximum details. You will not have much problem with the generally taken photos.

The phone is amazing then takes pictures of low light. There will be a problem of grain, but the phone manages to take pictures with commendable level details and color even in low light. The autofocus works faster and is usually successful in focusing on the right part of the shot. The phone’s camera misses only on macro photography and closeup shot.

Video quality is excellent. The phone ensures that more moving photos come through your digital image stabilization feature. The front camera is quite good. Selfie fans will like this.

Performance
Sony has played in a way gambling using the mid -range processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 chipset in Excise X Dual. Even though it is a competent phone according to its own, it does not give equal performance to a range of Rs 50,000 from anywhere. If we ignore its price for a moment, then this phone gives equal performance to the flagship phone launched last year. This shows how many magnificent chipsets have come in the mid-range this year. The performance was usually satisfactory, but Soni Xperia X Dual disappointed us several times.

The phone became more heated while charging, gaming and video shooting. This is a matter of concern, especially when the phone stops video recording due to heating. This happened to us many times.

The phone got a respectable score in the benchmark test. The phone is good in terms of performance, but many great performances are available at even lower price.

We are satisfied with cellular, Wi-Fi network and call quality. The Xperia X dual comes with a front dual speaker setup. In such a situation, there is a good sound when watching videos and listening to songs.

The sound coming from the headphones is good. The battery life is satisfactory, but is far behind the rest of this price range. The phone battery lasted 10 hours 29 minutes in our video loop test. It should last for a day in common use. Overall, Xperia X Dual is not an excellent performance like its other handset. In such a situation, it is not possible for us to justify the price of Rs 48,990.

Our decision
Sony’s new flagship Xperia X Dual gave us a mixed feeling. It is a beautiful device in appearance with a good texture and the screen is also fantastic. It has a camera equipped with many features that take good pictures under most circumstances. Sadly, it has some big shortcomings. The phone heating reduction cannot be ignored. Apart from this, the fingerprint sensor also fails many times. The software is also a bit disturbing. UI is not very easy.

The biggest issue for us is the price of this phone. A slightly higher price for a big brand like Sony is valid, but this time the company has made a wrong decision. 15,000 rupees are also very high for Xperia X Dual. Even though Sony feels that better camera technology and tricks are its most important feature, but Xperia X Dual is not an all -rounder phone.

If you are planning to buy a powerful flagship phone equipped with many features, then OnePlus 3 is always a better option and its price is also very low. If you are looking for the top brand then Samsung Galaxy S7 and LG G5 ,Review) There are far better options. Xperia X Dual is not a bad phone. It will only like the gross pimples of Sony, at least until it costs it.

Selling a smartphone has never been so easy before now, and any smartphone can step into business these days. The smartphone market (both online and offline) is full of brands these days and you will not have heard about many. And these companies are selling low -cost smartphones in the budget. Such new companies are also growing these days because there is a market for such phones which are mostly left without being in the discussion.

For Gadgets 360, we have been requesting for reviews for the review of new smartphones with budget priced continuously, but it is not possible for us to check every phone. Today we have Rashmi Group’s subsidiary Reach Mobiles Reach aloor smart fone. This budget smartphone priced at around Rs 5,000 has been introduced as an iconic smartphone.

Look and design
According to its price, plastic body has been used instead of metal body in the alor. At first glance it gives an iPhone -like look and we think it has been deliberately made like a iPhone -like design. This phone is available in four color variants of iPhone (including Rose Gold). However, along with the quality of plastic, fit and finish is also not very spectacular. There is also a slight gap in plastic around the curved aase of the display. A physical home button has been given for navigation at the bottom and is a 5 megapixel camera at the top. The ring around the home button is made with the intention of giving a look like Apple’s touchID fingerprint sensor. But this is not a sensor. There is no notification LED in the phone.

The 5.5 inch QHD (540×960 pixels) given in this phone is not very bad except for its resolution. Brightness level is also fine but the screen wash out in sunlight. There is also a slight gap between the outer glass and actual display that can be seen while pressing on the screen. For this reason, the touch response in the phone is quite useless and sometimes the phone cans a tap gesture like a swipe. To meet the deficiency of protective glass, a screen guard already arrives on the alire display.
Micro-USB and headphone shocks are given upwards in the Reach Alore smartphone while there is a single speaker at the bottom. Volume and power buttons are not very well placed and do not run easily. Rear cover is not easy to remove but once you remove it, you can see two SIM card slots and a microSD card slot with removable battery. The 10 -megapixel rear camera single LED flash has been given in the aloor smartphone.

On purchasing Reach Alure you will find a power adapter, data cable and a flip cover in the box. The quality of the cable is good but the flip case is of extremely poor quality. If the case lasts for a month, then you should consider yourself lucky. Overall, the alire is made of extremely poor quality materials. Plastic fit and finish could be improved further. In our view, any user will buy this smartphone online only because it looks like an iPhone.

Specification and software
The Reach Alore phone has a 1.3 GHz quad-core MediaTek MT 6580 processor. This phone has 1 GB RAM and 8 GB storage, storage can be increased through microSD card (up to 32 GB). This phone of Reich has features like Wi-Fi B/G/N, Bluetooth 4.0, FM radio and GPS. The phone does not support 4G and only 3G will work on both SIMs.

Talk about software, this phone runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop with custom launcher. You get an option to choose an app drar and transition effect in the phone. The multi-pasa home button works for different functions but it depends on how you press it. In an app where a single press takes you a step back, an additional setting opens from the long press and from the double press you reach the home screen. However, if you are on the home screen then you will reach the recent app from the double press while the menu will open from the Long Press where you can customize wallpapers, themes and second settings. The home button performs very poorly and has to make a lot of efforts to use it.

Along with this, Reich has also included some gesture-based shortcuts so that you can run the app when the screen is off. The phone consists of Vichat, WhatsApp and some other Google app pre-install.

Performance
Reach Alore is not very convenient to use due to its size but the good thing is that it is quite light. Despite having 1 GB of RAM, the interface does not make much trouble. Sometimes the smartphone suddenly stops and you may have to wait a little to use back. In benchmark testing, we got good data from the phone. We did not face any problem in playing 3D games in this phone of Reach nor did we face any kind of heating problem.

The stock video player has been given to play video in this smartphone. Full-HD video can be played in the phone, but we had problems in playing some high-bitrate files. The music player is in the form of an old version of Android so it is not very appealing but can do his work. Out of 8 GB of inbuilt storage, 4.7 GB is the use of user.

The phone is said to have a 10 -megapixel autofocus rear camera and the same specifications have been told in everywhere and listing. But the footnote written on the back side on its box states that ‘the camera can be increased through software’. In our benchmarking test, we came to know about the 8 megapixel rear and 5 megapixel front camera from the phone. Apart from this, we captured some raw files from the phone camera using the engineeringmod app from the Play Store and we came to know about the 8 megapixel camera. It is not bad to have an 8 megapixel camera in an entry level smartphone and in our view the phone was done to show the phone better.

Photos taken at both resolution from the phone’s camera are less than average quality. The most problem is the slow focus in the phone, which makes it difficult to take a sharp picture. Slight motion also has a lewd picture. The camera does not bring the right color and the pictures are very dull. The phone has a burst shooting (up to 10 shots) feature but the capture speed is very slow.

A maximum of 1080 pixels can be recorded from both the cameras of the phone. The quality here is also less than average. A selfie taken from the front camera also disappoints.

battery life
The Reach Alor has a 2600 mAh battery which supported our video loop test for 5 hours and 27 minutes. This is very low compared to the second smartphone. During general use, we were able to run this phone in less than one day.

Our decision
The Reach Alore is priced at Rs 5,444 and is currently available exclusively on online retailer shopcluys. It is very difficult to tell any kind of special feature in this phone and this phone performs less than average in every case. Infocus bingo 10 ,Review) Compare to, aloire has a large and bright display that can make some customers unlike.

We can see that this phone can attract people who want a cheap iPhone clone but there is no other reason to buy it. The build quality of the phone is extremely bad. Battery life and camera are fine and performance is also not good. 4G deficiency is also unlikely.

The Chinese company OnePlus has taken a long way in a very short time. The company has a lot of discussion to create the best track smartphone in the world. So far the company has introduced four smartphones. OnePlus has introduced its flagship smartphone at the price that does not stop even around the flagship.

However, OnePlus has caught the attention of many smartphone buyers in the last two years, but they have not been a ‘flagship killer’. These smartphones were introduced by the company like a flagship smartphone. The performance of OnePlus 1 (Review) smartphone was fantastic but disappointed in the design, battery and camera departments. OnePlus 2 (review) saw a decrease in software and fingerprint sensor along with several other flaws. OnePlus X (Review) has so far been the company’s most affordable phone but we had some problems in its texture and camera. Except for all this, it was very difficult to buy OnePlus device under the company’s invite system.

It seems that OnePlus has heard the user’s mind. The company now finally has its Invite system ends Has announced to do and introduced a new flagship smartphone in its affordable phone series. OnePlus 3 It has been launched for Rs 27,999 and this smartphone is giving a new challenge with this price in the category of flagship phones. However, this smartphone has another successful smartphone Xiaomi Mi 5 ,Review) There will be a tough competition from. Will OnePlus 3 be able to become a successful phone? Learn the shortcomings and features of this phone in our review.
Look and design
In OnePlus 3, the company has made a huge change that has completely changed the design of the phone. The rear panel that comes with stand -up finishing has been abolished. It has been replaced by cold, hard aluminum. Apart from this, this phone is made of unibody with dull metallic finish so that this phone HTC One M9 reminds me of. OnePlus 3 is a beautiful, good -textured phone and finally it brings onePlus in the league of the company that offers the best design.

The phone front is also quite stylish. Corning Gorilla Glass 4 has been given with curves on the screen’s edge, which prevents some type of scratch and damage. Apart from this, the front has a capacitive home button with fingerprint censor inbuilt. There are two more capacitive buttons on either side of the home button. Usually these buttons are invisible but when touching the button, the backlight is activated. With the help of the software given in the phone, these buttons can also be deactivated and you can switch to your Suvidhanusa on-screen button. Our review unit already had a screen protector film installed but it does not cover the front completely and scratches easily. So we will like the phone without screen protector.

There has been a significant change in the fingerprint sensor given in OnePlus 3 compared to OnePlus 2. It easily unlocks the phone and the pone is unlocked even after activating the divaite made even when it is in standby mode. The fingerprint sensor of OnePlus 3 is quite faster than many other devices, Mi5 also has to press on the first physical home button to unlock the phone. OnePlus 3 can be stored up to five fingerprints and the sensor can also be used to overthrime and access the control of certain apps.

The edges of the phone are quite well designed. The well-known alert slider and volume button of OnePlus are given on the left side. The right side has a power button and dual sim tray. The bottom are speakers, USB Type-C port and 3.5mm shock. Although the phone is 7.35 mm thin, due to the curved rear, the phone looks very thin on the edges. Along with this, OnePlus 3 is also convenient in catching. It is worth noting that the primary camera is quite outward and if you use the phone without a protective case then it can be damaged. The user gets five plastic case options that you can buy with different looks and finish with the phone. Carbon, Betu, Apprix, Rosewood and Sandstone are five plastic case options. The texture on the case is very beautiful and the phone looks quite beautiful without a case.

OnePlus 3 has a 5.5 -inch screen of 1080×1920 pixels resolution, just like the previous phone and has a Dansity 401 PPI. However, OnePlus has used the AMOLED screen this time. OnePlus X was also given an AMOLED screen. There is a polarizing layer to make the phone readable in sunlight. Although it is not as crisp as crisp, 1440×2560 pixels coming in many flagship smartphones these days, but it is quite sharp and it gives a great picture quality.

Specification
Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor is finally coming into the limelight and now many devices are available in India with this processor. LG G5 ,ReviewExcept, then the price of all the models coming with this processor is only within Rs 30,000. Recently for Rs 22,999 Launched LEEC LE Max 2 It is also included in this list. Not only this powerful processor has been used in OnePlus 3 but it also has 6 GB LPDDR4 RAM and 64 GB non-exclusive internal storage.

Apart from this, the phone supports 4G connecting on both SIMs for FDD Band 3 and TDD Band 40. OnePlus 3 has features like Wi-Fi A/B/G/N/AC, Bluetooth 4.2 and NFC. The phone has a 3000 mAh non-removable battery to give power and is the company’s first device to come up with some fast charging technology. This phone comes with 20 watt dash charger, due to which the phone charges up to 60 percent in 30 minutes. The phone is fully charged in one hour charging.

Charging and connectivity in the phone is through USB 2.0 Type-C port and computer and charger can be connected to the cable coming with the phone.

The special thing is that OnePlus will also sell the dash charger especially for the car which can be installed in a standard 12 watt car shock. We connected this charger with the phone, although the charging from it was not as fast as a wall-shock charger, but if you travel most of the time, it can be a work accessory for you.

Software
Talk about the software of OnePlus 3, OnePlus 3 runs on OxygenoS 3.1.1 based on Android 6.0.1. The oxygen also acts like a stock Android Marshmallow. It also has some useful new features. OxygenoS provides a variety of customized options in the phone, while the marshmallow features are also maintained in the phone. These include the new colorful app permission system, now on tap, and dose mode. The bootloader can be unlocked quickly from oxygenoS.

One of the most important features of OnePlus 3 is the shelf, which can be accessed by swiping the right side on the home screen. With this, you can access information about the weather, mostly used apps, visits, and contacts. Other options like adaptive brightness, color temperature settings, ambient display mode can be accessed by going to the setting menu. Ambient display can give you basic information without using a display proximity sensor. Apart from this, you can also opt for Default Keyboard using Swiftki.

Apart from this, some other customization options also have a ‘dark mode’ to activate the phone from which the color of the menu can be converted into a dark shade, LED notification light color can be custom for different functions.

Camera
The primary camera of OnePlus 3 is 16 megapixels with Sony IMX 298 sensor while there is an 8 -megapixel front camera with 1.4 micron pixels. The rear camera can live 4K video records and the slow motion video can be recorded at 120 frames per second. While slow motion video from the front camera can be recorded at 30 frames per second with 1080 pixels. Apart from this, the rear camera also has optical image stabilization, Faze Detection Autofocus and RAW Imez format support.

The camera app is Google’s stock app that you see in the Nexus device. This app is designed in a normal way and mostly surrounds screen space for viewfinder. This is why there is a single shutter button to take photos and video recording is a two-step process. Modes like time laps, slow motion, video, manual and panorama can be accessed from a small tole in the left corner.

When taking photos, you can also togle the self -timer. Apart from this, there are also control options for flash, HD shooting, HDR mode and camera switcher. It is very easy to use the camera app but we have seen it better apps with more control in another device.

While shooting in outdoor in good light, sharp photos are found with detailing from the phone, but the pictures seem scattered a bit. The color comes to the vibrant and the pictures also look bright and good. Sometimes autofocus sounds very slow, but once a subject or scene is locked, pictures are good. Both optical and electronic image stabilization help in capturing good quality photos and videos. But in low light, pictures taken from the camera oversight and disintegrate.

A great video can also be made with detailing on full-HD resolution from the phone. And for better sharpness, you always have the option of 4K video recording. Slow motion and time laps mode gives good results. A lot of sharp photos have been taken from the front camera and there are much better pictures than other typical smartphones. Overall, the camera of OnePlus 3 gives far better results than a simple smartphone shooting.

Performance
So far, OnePlus 3 proves to be a powerhouse in smartphones reviewed by Snapdragon 820 processor. Everything works very well from playing games to loading web pages, opening the app to taking pictures. The performance of the phone with 6 GB RAM is great. There is no problem in the phone about the heat and some way in any way and the phone works well while doing heavy work.

Talk about benchmark data, OnePlus 3 has broken some records with its tremendous performance. OnePlus 3 is the best phone in the most powerful Android smartphone we used so far.

The phone worked well on the cellular network. The phone always works better on 4G and Wi-Fi connectivity. OnePlus 3 gives a better type of call quality and the device’s dual microphone setup also keeps a voice transmission. Phone battery in our video loop test 16 hours. Lasted for 45 minutes. Even while doing 4G networks and severe work, this phone goes easily without charging for a day.

Our decision
After the last three smartphones, OnePlus has finally managed to make OnePlus 3 a tremendous phone. Good work has been done in every department in the phone and OnePlus has finished all kinds of problems seen in the previous device in this phone. The phone has required features such as NFCs, accurate fingprin sensors, magnificent amoled screens and fast charging, so that this phone meets expectations everywhere.

However, OnePlus 3 is not completely perfect. Although 64 GB of internal storage is sufficient, some people may find a problem with the absence of expandable storage in the phone. The single speaker is a bit weak and in Fon we got to see some file format recognition issue so that we could not play some videos and audio files. The pictures taken in low light than the phone did not remain as expected. But except for all these small flaws, OnePlus 3 is a great smartphone. This phone, which comes with these features and capacity for Rs 27,999, can prove to be a ‘flagship killer’.

The smartphone has reached the ladder of development today where the user does not need to spend too much money for a good device. Today, a smartphone of the common need of the user is easily available at a price of less than Rs 15,000. Then the question is, what is the need of high -priced premium flagship smartphones? After all, what are the features in the high -priced smartphones that can make it different from these devices of budget category.

Overall, if you spend more money, then you will get a better and powerful phone, great camera quality, design and look experience.

Today we will review the LG G5 of Rs 52,990 in the list of flagship smartphones. This smartphone claims to have everything that a user expects from the flagship smartphone. The phone has many new features. LG G5 with a fully modular design has made a new beginning in the flagship category. Learn why buy this flagship modular smartphone.

Look and design
LG G5 A separate frame and a metal body with a rear shell. However, we did not like it for the first time holding the phone in hand. On taking the phone in hand, a flagship metal device was more than a phone made of mid-range plastic. But later the G5 proved to be a little better, but this phone does not make the same feel as we saw in many devices of this recently reviewed price.

The metal shell has been curved very well on the edges, but due to a separate frame, the phone does not always look good to hold in hand. In addition, despite having 5.3 inchesscreen in the G5, the phone looks like a heavy phone. Apart from this, there is also a problem in the remuel modular base which does not look perfectly fit and because of this it looks strange.

The rear has a dual camera setup, with laser autofocus window, flash and color sensor. The power button also acts as a fingerprint sensor. The fingerprint sensor unlocks the phone very accurate and rapidly. And separate from another device, despite not activating the phone, you can unlock the phone only by touching the fingers on the power button.

The next part of the phone has a screen on 70 percent. The glass given on the next part is quite good in our eyes. But it does not have any special function. Its most special feature at the bottom of the phone is modular and removable. Its appearance looks very attractive when looking forward. It seems that this is a removable unit and from this you remember that you have a better approach phone in your hand.

The hybrid-dual sim slot is given on the right side and the volume and module rock buttons are on the left side. The 3.5 mm shock and infrared blaster are upwards. Standard module coming with the phone is a simple phone base equipped with USB Type-C port, microphone and speaker. Removal battery will be seen on removing the rear cover of the phone.

LG has announced two optional modules for G5. The LG Came Plus of Rs 6,500 is a camera grip with a separate shutter, camera on/off and video recording, dial buttons for zoom. It also has a 1200 mAh battery, which increases the total battery capacity of the phone to 4000 mAh.

Hi-Fi Plus has been given as another option. It is a dack module made by Bang and Alluffesen. Its device claims to improve the audio output coming from the headphone or wired speaker. However, we did not get a chance to use any of these two modules. During our review, we can only test the standard module and this did not give us any benefit of any additional feature.

The LG G5 has a 5.3 -inch IPS LCD screen of 1440×2560 pixels with a density 554 PPI. For this reason, the screen is quite sharp and a pleasant feeling is also available during photos, videos games or surfing. Colors on the screen look quite vibrant and detailing.

Specification
Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor is being given in many devices these days. But in India Xiaomi Mi 5 ,Review) After this LG G5 coming with this processor is the second smartphone. These days it is Quacom’s flagship processor and is also one of the most powerful processors available in the market today.

The LG G5 has given 4G connectivity support on 4 GB RAM, 32 GB inbuilt storage (MicroSD card support from 200 GB), Wi-Fi A/G/N/AC and both bands (TDD band 40 and FDD Band 3). Along with this, USB 3.0 and 2800 mAh battery has been provided with Type-C connector. Several sensors such as compass, barometer and color spectrum sensors have also been provided. Talk about the audio, this device also has A2 DP and ATEX HD support with Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity.

In the specification, we found the weakest 32 GB inbuilt storage. Nowadays most of the devices of this category are coming with 64 GB storage. Although the phone has microSD card support, it is a hybrid SIM support phone. This means that the user has to choose one option from two SIMs or one SIM and a microSD card.

Software
The LG G5 runs on Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 with LG’s Optimus UI 5.0. Each is a single layer UI. Most Chinese smartphone companies give similar UIs in their devices. However, according to your convenience, you can switch to the traditional dual-level user interface in LG G5. The software is designed very well, which makes it look clean, clear.

The G5 has a work screen called Smartut Bulletin which can be activated by going to the setting app. With this, users can directly access the calendar, health tracker, quick remote app and other apps from the home screen itself. Apart from this, you can download another additional feature B to use this feature.

By going to the setting app, you can control many things, including SIM handling to Android Soft’s layout, the camera for the camera’s quick launch gesture. Quick Settings menu can also be customized.

LG has given an allways-on display in G5, so that the screen remains active even when the phone is on standby mode. The phone includes many LG apps already installed which include Back Up, Friends Manager, Health, Quick Remote and Smart World. Avnote also pre-loaded in LG G5 which cannot be uninstall.

Camera
Talking about the camera of LG G5, it has a dual rear camera setup on the rear. The phone has a 16 -megapixel main and 8 megapixel support sensor. Along with this, the phone has an 8 -megapixel front camera. The rear camera can shoot 30 frames per second of up to 2160 pixels per second, while the front camera can record 30 frames up to 10080 pixels per second. The rear camera has a slow motion mode which is recorded at 60 frames per second at full-HD resolution. Apart from this, optical image stabilization, laser autofocus and color spectrum sensors are also present.

The camera software is well designed and the layout is quite convenient. The layout has all the buttons of the need. Recording a video from the al-separate button on the camera’s viewfinder screen is a one-step process. Apart from this, there is also a button to exit the app quickly. Apart from this, there is also a standard togle for flash, camera switching and shooting mode. Other things like resolution, HDR settings, self -timer can be controlled from the detail setting menu. Along with this, there is a special togle through which a quick switch can be done between Armal and Wide Angle lens.

The camera can be easily focused, whether you are selecting autofacus or manually focal area. And good close shots can be taken with the help of laser system. Photos taken in the indoor are very spectacular. But this does not mean that good pictures cannot be taken from G5 in natural light. Details and clean with the shot shot focus.

The pictures taken in low light are also good, especially when it comes to color and detailing. It is very fun to take the shot taken on the wide angle and especially when you are taking natural landscape photos. Most of the photos taken from G5 are good. The front camera is also fine and it brings a great selfie.

When you are moving or shooting videos in a vehicle, optical image stabilization works a lot. It is good to have 4K video options in the phone, but due to large file size, you will be able to use it very little. The video also makes the video fantastic on full-HD.

Performance
The LG G5 runs on Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor. It is one of the most powerful processors present in the market. The LG G5 with 4 GB RAM is included in the best performance smartphone. From booting to opening apps, running gam and heavy apps, many tabs open together in webbuzer do the phone. Multitasking is also better and you can work together in several apps without any hassle at once.

LG G5 raised very good figures in the selling test. If you want to buy a powerful smartphone, then G5 is one of the most powerful smartphones in the market.

The phone is slightly hot at the time of playing games or more use, but it is convenient to use. In our video loop test, the battery supported 13 hours 6 minutes. At the time of normal use, the phone runs easily throughout the day. This phone charge, which comes with Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0 technology, also gets early.

Network connectivity is also good and works well not only on 4G network but also on weak Wi-Fi signals. Single speaker provides good sound quality but headphones are better than sound quality.

Our decision
Smartovas of LG’s G series are either always hits or are not successful at all. Last year, the G4 smartphone disappointed in many features, especially in terms of battery life and software. Apart from this, laser autofocus was also not as expected. All those problems have been solved in the LG G5. But the most different now seems to be that a smartphone is ultimately in the market to give a select to Samsung’s dominance.

The most attractive feature in LG G5 is LG G5, so that you can add additional features and functions to the phone. Currently, only Cam Plus module is available but we hope that LG will also provide other modules in the coming time. Good software, strong battery life, great performance and better cameras make this phone a real flagship smartphone.

However, the building’s build quality could have been better. Although LG has given a fully metal body in this phone, but it does not give many other flagship smartphones. The alignment given between the body and module of G5 makes the phone’s design feel a bit useless. Except for this, there is hardly any other deficiency in LG G5 besides high price. We will advise every user who wants to buy a premium flagship Android smartphone.

Efforts are on to define the flagship smartphone. The company now U unicorn Has released Before U utopia ,Review) A similar effort was made with. This phone was very strong on paper, but could not live up to expectations.

Through U Unicorn, the company has reiterated its old effort, but more attention is paid to software and service. This smartphone is of a range of Rs 15,000. This handset is going to get a tough challenge in this price range. What u unicorn smartphone Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 ,Review, Lenovo Zook Z1 ,Review) And Moto G4 Plus ,Review) Will you be able to challenge? Let’s try to know this.

Look and design
A look at the phone, and we can assure that Unicorn is the best looking U smartphone ever. Metal Unibody is built in the best way. The brushed look adds beauty to the phone. This phone with a thickness of 8.5 millimeters is very slim. The weight of 172 grams is slightly higher but we became accustomed to using it. Oppo F1 Plus in appearance of the phone’s front panel, while the rear camera section reminds us of Xiaomi Redmi Note 3. The design is not a shocking thing, but we prefer something new in terms of design.

The 5.5 inch full-HD display is sharp picture and sufficient pixel density for text. There is no problem in reading this display in sunlight. Touch response is also good. NEG protective glass is given on the screen. The borders on both sides of the screen are quite slim. There is a notification light on top of it and the physical home button is at the bottom. The fingerprint sensor in the physical home button is integrated, which works good to unlock the phone.

A single hybrid dual-sim tray is on the left side. Power and volume button on the right side. There is some difficulty in pressing these buttons. The headphone socket is at the top and in the micro-USB port bottom. There are speaker grills on either side of the USB port. Dual tone LED flash with 13 megapixel camera has been provided in the rear. The battery cannot be removed. The Unicorn 10 Watt’s power adapter, data cable and in-ear headset will come. One thing has to be believed that the quality of accessory given by the company has improved.

Specification and software
In U Unicorn, the company has used Octa-core MediaTek Helio P10 chipset and 4 GB RAM. With this you will get 32 ​​GB of storage which can be increased through microSD card up to 128 GB. It is equipped with Wi-Fi B/G/N, Bluetooth 4.1, USB-OTG and GPS. NFC and FM radio features are not present.

Talking about the software, there is a stock version of Android Lollipop 5.1, which the company has named ‘Android on Stroids’. The innounced launch has a custom icon set and has a new version of U’s Around feature. U Wallet is also present in the new Around Service. By using it, you will be able to use your mobile, DTH or data card.

There is not much app in it. But the work apps like file manager, sound recorder and uunar web browser are present. Unicorn has a U’s cloud service available on which you can have a backup of SMS, contact, call log settings and WhatsApp data.

Performance
U Unicorn works well in multitasking. Whether to load the app or play games. Overall, it is a good modern smartphone. The phone did not heat much during use. This complaint was received while charging a little bit and playing the game. The phone also did a good job in our 4G network. The metal back is about to slip slightly. During the use, this handset was about to fall from our hands once or twice. Performance is such that you will be able to play most of the games easily.

The phone also works well in multimedia playback. There is enough sound from the speaker. The music player is integrated with the song app and also has an equalizer.

Electronic image stabilization and 13-megapixel camera equipped with five-element lenses are present in the rear part. In the light of the day, the pictures taken from this come with good colors. However, while crop crops, you will find that there is a shortage of details. Focus around the object is not very sharp even in close-up shot. The photo in HDR mode comes with Bhutia Effect. This deficiency was also in Utopia. The biggest problem is a slow focus system which is the cause of trouble even during the day. The camera app takes about one second to lock the focus. After this, to save one or two second images.

This problem emerges in low light. You Unicorn seems to be completely lagging behind in low light and indoor shooting. The quality of the recorded video can be called well. You will also get slow motion mode but the resolution is limited to 640 pixels. In good light, a 5-megapixel front camera takes proper pictures. Overall, Unicorn’s camera is not the most important feature. If this is the most important feature for you, then consider another phone.

battery life
The 4000 mAh battery in the handset lasted for 14 hours and 46 minutes in our video loop test. In common use, the phone continued easily for one and a half days. Fast charging lacks, but with the charger given with it, you can get 20 percent battery in the charge of only half an hour.

Our decision
U Unicorn is priced at Rs 12,999. But this is the launch price. After a month, this handset will be available for Rs 13,499. The company is also working to bring this handset to some offline store. The most important feature of U Unicorn is build quality, texture, battery life and interesting software services. There are also some shortcomings, such as weak camera performance, weight and FM radio and Wi-Fi AC deficiency.

We can understand that it is very difficult to make a phone that gives the best performance in all departments, especially at this price. However, the users who shop in this price range are not looking for a supenah phone. They need an all -rounder handset. Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, Lenovo Zook Jade 1 and Moto G4 Plus offer all these things. In such a situation, it will not be easy for Unicorn to stand in front of these challenges.

A few months ago, the Leico company of China, which stepped into the Indian market through the Le 1S handset, has started launching rapid and cheap phones in the market. By making the phone a source, the company has introduced its content service ‘Leico, Membership’. The company hopes that these services will become the main source of its earnings in the future.

This is an interesting strategy, and some extent gambling. Will the customers pay for subscription from next year after one year free membership is over? It will be the viewer. Will Leico be able to offer such an offer that Indian smartphone users will not deny. Keeping all these things in mind Le 1 S Eco Let’s introduce the review of

Look and design
If you Le 1 S If you have seen or used, then there is nothing new to say about Le 1S Eco. Both phones are exactly the same. The new model is currently available only in gold variants, but there is no change in the structure of both that should be mentioned. There has been no change in terms of dimensions and weight. The old latev logo was still present in us in the given Test unit. This is shocking, as the company has got a long time to change it.

Material and build quality used to make Le1S are excellent. So we are completely satisfied with this phone. It feels more expensive in appearance. It is slightly sharp on the edges, but it is usually quite comfortable to keep and use it in hands.

All the important points can be easily reached, even if the fingerprint sensor on the rear area is there. A nano SIM and a micro SIM card can be used in the SIM card slot on the right. The handset does not have support for microSD card. The Le1S Eco comes with the USB Type-C port which can be used for charge and data transfer. You will also get a quick charger, which is more than the commonly received charger and weighty.

Specification
The Le 1 S Eco comes with a slightly lower clock -speed CPU than the Le1S. It also comes with an octa-core MediaTek Helio X10 processor, but the company has stated that it will give a 1.8 GHz clock speed compared to the 2.2 GHz clock speed of the old phone.

It has a 5.5 -inch display with 1080×1920 pixels resolution. The new variant also has 3 GB RAM and inbuilt storage is 32 GB. There has been no change in 3000 mAh battery, 13 megapixel rear camera and 5 megapixel front camera. You will also get a fingerprint sensor on the rear part.

It will support both SIM 4G LTE network with Wi-Fi AC, Bluetooth 4.1 and A-GPS. There is no space for microSD card, but the company will find 5 TB of cloud storage free in Le Membership. This is the best specification for any phone, which makes the Le 1S Eco more luxurious at this price.

This means that you are being given an old phone with a radical change, but at a low price. We have to see how low clock speed will affect the performance. Hopefully, its effect will not be much.

Software
The new Le 1S Eco in this department is separated from the old phone. The phone currently runs on Android 5.0.2 and we think the custom EUI needs to work more on the skin. We believe that non-essential changes have been made in the common capacity of Android. This custom UI can be improved further by using core software updates and some industry tricks.

However, the most important feature of this phone is Leico Membership package. This provides the user the facility of cinema, TV channels, songs and live streams. You can reach here by tapping the live icon seen at the bottom of the homescreen. Simply, this is the customized version of Yapp TV.

Currently, channel options are limited, but quality in sharp internet connection is not bad. You will find many news and music channels in 10 Indian languages. But the options of sports, movies, entertainment channels are not yet.

Performance
Even if the media feature is except, the Le 1S Eco is a strong phone. We found that the phone became very hot several times during video streaming and especially during charging. If you hold it in your hands continuously, it can be a bit uncomfortable. There was no difficulty in playing the game. The experience of watching cinema on the flower-HD screen was fantastic. Built in speakers are good, but not enough to watch videos in the group.

The impact of low clock speed did not show much in the benchmark results. The benchmark results of Le1S Eco remained around the old Le 1S.

In our battery loop test, the phone battery lasted for 6 hours and 7 minutes, which is disappointing. The phone battery went well in common use and standby time was also worth noting.

The performance of the camera was also like 1S. The pictures taken in the light of the day turned out to be quite good. Sometimes there was a problem of focus lock. The shots taken in low light turned out to be very bad. Photos taken in the light of streetlands, shop signs or Windows were also not useable. It is here that the reasons for this variant of Le 1S are cheap.

Our decision
Leico has taken an interesting decision to launch Le 1S Eco as a separate model rather than a special edition of the old phone. Both phones are almost the same. The price difference of Rs 100 and a slight difference in clock speed is nothing different. The company’s focus is on content and here Leicco will have to do a lot of work to agree between customers.

If the content given by this company is not of your use, then you will like to spend any other content of your choice of Rs 490 per month. However, 5 TB of Clide Storage is a great offer in this price range.

If the content is more important for you than a low clock speed processor, then think about Le 1S Eco instead of buying Le 1S. On the other hand, if you never use content, then you buy the old Le 1S. Both are good in appearance. If you are very vigilant about camera quality and battery life, then avoid both phones.

U Televernchers made its new flagship smartphone in New Delhi on Tuesday U unicorn Raised the curtain from The company has been continuously issuing teaser about Unicorn for the last few weeks. Some changes have also been made to make this smartphone separate from the previous model of U. Ureka, Euphoria, Ureka plus, Unique, Utopia And Ureka note After that U Unicorn is the seventh smartphone of the company.

Speaking to Gadgets 360 on the occasion of the event, the company’s founder Rahul Sharma stressed that U Unicorn should be compared to the budget or mid -range handset at this price.

U’s new flagship smartphone comes with full-HD display and metal body. Apart from this, it is the first U handset equipped with a physical home button working as a fingerprint sensor. This will be liked by the features’ fans. This smartphone runs on Android OS in which the company’s Around U feature is integrated. This is the company’s service agargator platform introduced with Utopia last year. We spent some time with U Unicorn during the launch event. Let us tell you in detail about it.

You Unicorn is beautiful in appearance, especially from the front. We believe that this is the best looking U smartphone ever. Aluminum finish gives it a look of strengthening. The curved edges give it a good grip. The metal back of U Unicorn slightly slightly slipping in the hands. We also said the same about other metal phones like HTC One (M8). This phone with 172 grams feels a little weighty, especially when it is compared to other smartphones of this price range.

Power and volume rocker buttons are on the right side. As long as we used this smartphone, there was no problem in using them. The micro-USB charging port is at the bottom of the port handset, while the audio socket top. This smartphone comes with DTS sound enhancement and has a dual microphone setup.

At first glance, the rear part of U Unicorn appears Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 As it looks. However, U has also intentionally made some changes in the design, such as giving the speaker a separate place. Dual-LED flash being vertical.

Unicorn is the company’s first smartphone equipped with integrated fingerprint sensor on home button. On the occasion of the launch, the company said that it comes with chip level security. When we asked Rahul Sharma about this feature, he said that if it did not get the right fingerprint, the sensor will not allow it to unlock it. He also told that this handset can store up to five fingerprints at a time. In a short time spent with the handset, we found that the fingerprint sensor of Unicorn works properly. The home button has been given such a position that small -handed users will be able to use it easily. It will be easy to use this handset with one hand.

The smartphone has a 5.5-inch full-HD (1080×1920 pixels) IPS display equipped with 2.5D curved glass. The screen is bright and crisp in appearance. We did not have difficulty in seeing it on its screen even in sunlight. The viewing angles of the smartphone are also good.

U has made the biggest change in its unicorn flagship smartphone using Stock Android instead of Cyanogen OS. The phone comes with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop in which some customizations of U are provided. At the launch event, the company said that the unicorn runs on “Android on Sterreods” which means, the integration of the Around You in Launcher. The handset’s customized interface comes with vertical app drawer.

U Unicorn has a 13-megapixel rear camera with dual-LED flash. It also has a 5 megapixel front camera. The rear camera comes with phase detection autofocus, electronic image stabilization and slow motion video recording feature. In unnatural light, we found the pictures taken from U Unicorn camera quite crisp. There was no shortage of details in them. Fine pictures came from the front camera. We will be able to get more information about the performance of the camera only after reviewing.

U Unicorn has a 4000 mAh battery. It has been claimed to give talk time of up to 20 hours and standby time up to 500 hours. The phone supports 4G LTE. On using U Unicorn, we found that this smartphone gave good response on touch input. There was no problem during multitasking. It has 4G RAM with an octa-core MediaTek Helio P10 processor. We will not say much about Unicorn’s performance right now. For this, you will have to wait for our detailed review.

Last idea
U Unicorn will fight in the market at the launch of Rs 12,999 with Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, Moto G4 Plus, Lenovo Fab and Zenfone Max (2016). Like other usual handsets, Unicorn will be sold exclusively through a flash cell on Flipkart. The company said that after a month, U Unicorn will be priced at Rs 13,499.

In Asus’s most popular smartphone Asus Zenfone Max ,Review) It is counted. Launched in January this year, this smartphone relieves battery problems like many other smartphones. Although most of the other specifications of the phone were good, but in terms of battery, this smartphone proved to be much better than expected.

Now the company has made a new variant of this phone at a price of Rs 9,999 Asus Zenfone Max (2016) Has launched Like the biggest feature of your previous smartphone (battery life), this phone is expected to have a great battery life. Apart from this, the second specification has also been upgraded in the phone. Asus has also launched this new smartphone at the original price of original Zenfone Max. So now it will be interesting to see if Asus’s Zenfone series benefits from the new Zenfone Max. Today we will review the new Zenfone Max (2016) and know all the features and shortcomings of this phone.

Look and design
The look, body, design and texture of Zenfone Max (2016) is also similar to the previous Zenfone Max. This includes detachable rear covers, gold trim along the edges, and the dislikes of Asus. The 2016 variants will also be found in two new color variants Blue and Orange. If you take a black or white color variant, then you may not be able to differentiate between new and old Zenfone Max.

Talk about design and layout, then Zenfone Max (2016) has all the basic features. Power and volume buttons are on the right side. At the bottom, there is a micro-USB port and upward 3.5mm audio shock. The rear panel can be removing that on removal shows two SIM slots and an expandable storage slot. The battery is non-removable. Asus has not converted his well-known design in this phone in 2016.

The 5.5 -inch IPA screen of 720×1280 pixels resolution given in the phone could be improved more. Despite the price of Rs 9,999 (price of 3 GB RAM variant at Rs 12,999) Asus has not given a good high-government screen in this phone. Other phones like Coolpad Note 3 Plus ,Review) It is disappointed when compared with full-HD display and 3 GB RAM at a low price. Apart from this, Zenfone Max (2016) also does not have a fingerprint sensor. The absence of a tough competition in the market also disappoints it.

The screen is the same as before and due to low resolution, battery life is definitely better. If the battery life matters the most for you, then low resolution and low detail screens may not be troublesome for you.

Specification and software
Asus can see a big difference as a specification on both generations of Asus Zenfone Max. The new Asus Zenfone Max (2016) has a more powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor. However, now more new processors are also available, but Snapdragon 615 is definitely upgraded and better than Snapdragon 410 given in Old Zenfone Max. Apart from this, the second biggest difference is to increase from 16 GB of inbuilt storage to 32 GB. In a variant of the new Zenfone Max (2016), RAM is 2 GB but you can buy 3 GB RAM variants for a price of Rs 12,999. It is worth noting that you get only 1 GB RAM more than giving a higher price of Rs 3000 because apart from this there is no other difference between the two variants.

The new phone also has a 5000 mAh battery like the old Zenfone Max. However, the power adapter is better than before and it is 5.2 watts. But it is extremely low to charge a 5000 mAh battery. It takes 5 hours to make the phone full-charged with this charger. If you buy Zenfone Max (2016), then you will definitely want to buy another better charger.

The 2016 variant has Android Marshmallow. Asus had issued a list that the old Zenfone Max would get Android Marshmallow updates. All the main features of Android M are present in this phone including ‘Do not disturb mode’, ‘Dose mode’, ‘Now on tap’ and new design of app permission.

However, the user interface is still Asus ZenuI. For the first time, about 50 apps need to be updated immediately. Apart from this, app and service continuously gives notifications to activate the battery saver mode, such as an account setup, for some things. However, despite some problems, this interface also has some benefits.

Camera
In the old Zenfone Max, the same camera with a laser autofocus system was given as the Asus Zenfone laser. The price of the company was to give the best camera performance at the time of its launch. Now the 2016 variant has also been launched with the same camera. The Zenfone Max (2016) has a 13 -megapixel rear camera and a 5 -megapixel front camera. Dual-tone LED flash and laser autofocus have been given on the rear itself. A video of 1080 pixels -30 frame/second resolution can be recorded from both cameras.

The camera app in the new Zenfone has improved a bit than before. The setting menu has improved compared to earlier but most apps are the same as before. The phone has a lot of photography modes and the focus is very fast and accurate due to the lazor system.

The camera performance in this phone with the camera and focus system given in the previous two Asus phones is the same as before. Indoor and close-up shots are very spectacular. The outdoor shots are a little washed out but can be said to be better. Videos and photos with front cameras come fantastic, especially during recording on 1080 pixels -30 frames/seconds.

Performance
The biggest difference in the old Asus Zenfone Max and 2016 variants is the performance of the phone. While the old device runs on the budget Snapdragon 410 processor, the new device has a more powerful upgraded Snapdragon 615 processor. Snapdragon 615 processor has proved to be a better performance in the mid-range smartphone earlier this year and earlier this year. However, at present, this price phone is being given a much better and powerful options and many users may not like an old processor.

Asus in the benchmarking test from Asus Zenfone Max (2016) got good as expected. Most of the tasks can be done easily from playing games in the phone. The new phone figures were better than the old Asus Zenfone Max.

The phone provides good call quality. Apart from this, along with 4G connectivity, the phone works excellent on Wi-Fi and mobile networks. The single speaker given in the phone is a bit weak but the sound quality found while using the headphone is good.

Talk about battery life, Asus Zenfone Max (2016) meets our expectations. In our video loop test, the phone’s battery lasted for 18 hours, 4 minutes while Original Zenfone Max’s battery life lasted for 25 hours. This is probably due to Snapdragon 410 having more energy efficient of Snapdragon 615. But, the phone’s battery is still very good and the phone lasts for two days when charged once during normal use.

Our decision
Through the Asus Zenfone Max (2016), the company definitely try to collect more customers than its best-selling product. The performance in the new phone has improved than before, while the battery life and cameras do the same work as before. Although the battery life is little less than the original phone, it is still enough to attract customers.

However, Asus has not improved many other important features. The phone has not given a fingerprint sensor, with this feature, this phone could have given a tough competition to many other phones in this price. 3 GB RAM could be given at a price of Rs 9,999, but it disappoints no other difference other than 1 GB RAM by paying Rs 3,000 more. ZenuI is worse than being better. This could be improved further by giving full-HD display in the phone.

Despite all this, if the battery life matters to you, then Asus Zenfone Max (2016) is a great phone at a price of Rs 10,000. Despite the second improvement in the phone and lack of features, the performance of the phone is good. So if you are looking for a phone with a price of less than Rs 10,000, then Asus’s new Zenfone cannot ignore Max.

Launched in October last year Coolpad Note 3 (Review) attracted our attention. This phone, which came with the perfect fingerprint sensor for Rs 8,499, attracted everyone’s attention. Soon after Coolpad Note 3 Lite ,Review) Good specifications were also given with fingerprint sensor in the launched Coolpad Note 3 Lite.

Now Coolpad has a third variant Coolpad Note 3 Plus Launch Has done This smartphone has been launched by the company at a price of Rs 8,999. Before the price cut The original price of Coolpad Note 3 was the same. This phone has little difference from the previous cooling note that makes it different from the old phone. Today we Coolpad Note 3 Plus Will review and learn about its merits and shortcomings.

Look and design
Two big differences can be clearly seen in Coolpad Note 3 and Note 3 Plus. The new Coolpad Note 3 Plus is slightly more heavy and has a full-HD screen while the Coolpad Note 3 had a 720×1280 pixel resolution screen. Apart from this, the Coolpad Note 3 Plus comes with new logo of coolpad but does not affect the second specification or feature of the phone. Apart from this, there is also no difference between Coolpad Note 3 Plus and Note 3.

The coolpad Note 3 Plus available at a price of Rs 8,999 is a great phone. The front of the phone looks quite good due to the edge-to-edge screen. However, a black border can be seen on both sides when viewed closely, but it does not have much effect. Additionally, the metallic strip (Champagne Gold in our review unit) present in the next part makes the phone more sharp and better.

Despite being made of plastic, the coolpad note 3 feels heavily felt when caught in the hand. Due to coming with a 5.5 inch screen, this phone is already in the phablet category but its extra weight also includes the phone in the phablet category. If you are fond of big screen then it is not bad to happen. Apart from this, the layout is similar to the previous phone, the power button on the right side, the volume button on the left, the top of the 3.5mm shock and the micro-USB port at the bottom. The rear has camera, flash and fingerprint sensors and speakers. Capacitive button is not backlit and it would have been better if these buttons were on-screen.

The biggest improvement in this new note of coolpad has been in the display. The Note 3 Plus has a 5.5-inch full-HD IPS screen, making it more sharp than the previous phone. Things like photos, videos and games can be seen with great experience in this display. However, it is not as bright and vibrant as we want. The color is slightly dull. But most of the devices in this price do not have a full-HD screen, so the screen of Note 3 Plus can be said to be much better.

Specification and software
Equality in Note 3 Plus and Note 3 continues here. The new device has exactly the same specifications as old phones. But, at the time of the review of Note 3, launched in October, this hardware could be called good, but now it seems a bit old. Most of the smartphones coming nowadays no longer the MediaTek MT6753 processor. Rather, smartphone makers are using new and more powerful MediaTek and Qualcomm processors instead.

As before, the coolpad Note 3 Plus has 3 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage. In this smartphone coming with dual SIM support, storage can be increased (up to 64 GB) with the help of microSD card. The phone has a 3000 mAh battery. FDD-Band 3 and TDD-Band 40 support on 4G connectivity on both SIM slots. Specifications in this smartphone coming at a price of Rs 8,999 are quite good.

Coolpad Note 3 Plus runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop on which CooluI 6.0 is given. The phone uses exactly the same UI which was in Note 3. Due to poor translation from Chinese to English language, many words in the system are very strange and overall we found the entire interface cartoon. The interface is sing-lyrical but you can activate a ‘traditional’ mode that the interface switchs into a dual layer with a deadly app drawer. The interface works without any problem, but the skin does not appear polished.

Setting apps and testipation sheds also show chronicness. This phone also has a coolpad explore keyboard with Yahoo search and tracking integrated. If you are in the desire of a phone whose interface is very clear then the coolpad note 3 plus is not for you.

The fingerprint sensor is very accurate and works at just once on most occasions. You will be able to unlock the handset by placing your finger in any angle. Five fingerprint scanners can be stored in the handset. And it can also decide which fingerprints have to open the app, call and take photos.

Camera
Coolpad Note 3 Plus has a camera like the previous phone. The camera performance is also as expected. A 13-megapixel rear camera with a single-tone LED flash takes pictures of landscape and macrose with details in natural light. However, we realized that sharpness was low in the closeup shot. Pictures taken in indoor and low lights were high. Panorama is easily stitch and their quality is also good.

In good light, good pictures come from the camera. Looking on the phone, the photos look vibrant and sharp. But the pictures look scattered on the big screen and the color also gets dalled. But according to the price, the camera is good and the user who buy this price phone will like it. The 5 megapixel front camera is effective in taking selfies, but only in daylight.

You will be able to record 1080 pixels videos and their quality is fine. The camera app is the same as before and not very good and there is no option to change it. However, its interface is simple and easy to use.

Performance
However, this phone runs on the old MediaTek MT6753 processor, but the performance of the phone is fine. The phone runs well due to 3 GB RAM.

You will easily play games like Ski Safari 2 on it. The phone did not even have difficulty in running games like Dead Tiger 2. We did not have much problem in multitasking. 1.8 GB RAM is available all the time. While playing the game and working for a long time, the phone gets slightly hot but does not look uncomfortable to use. There is no problem while watching the video in the phone.

Note 3 Light Plus gave the same results in the benchmark test just like its previous phone. But the graphic figures were slightly bad due to high-government screens.

The battery capacity in the phone is low after upgrade on the full-HD screen. The 3000 mAh battery lasted 10 hours 12 minutes in our video loop test. During normal use, we were able to easily run the phone throughout the day. Call quality is good and we did not have any problem in 4G networks. The single speaker also brings good quality.

Our decision
There is nothing in the Coolpad Note 3 Plus smartphone to say that some new features have been included in the coolpad note series. It seems that the company has launched this product with the intention of introducing just a new product. This smartphone, which comes with a high-government screen and fingerprint sensor, will compete with a category less than Rs 10,000. But some customers may be disappointed with its peculiar interface.

Coolpad Note 3 Plus is a great package that has good features according to the price. The phone has a fine screen, magnificent camera and instant and accurate fingerprint sensor. However, despite all this, it is not the best handset in its segment. In such a situation, you have to decide which features and specifications you need more.
