Realme official twitter account tweeted a new teaser video probably the first official announcement of the Realme 7 series with a promo video. The video tweet has a caption “Redefining fastest” and in the video, we can see the word FASTEST with the letter “F” replaced by “7”. The indication is clearly towards the faster speed of the Realme 7 series.
Well if you are thinking that this might be the upcoming Realme X7 series, which will launch in China, then it is not. It is the sequel of the Realme 6 series and this time this will be the Realme 7 series.

The new Asus Zenfone 7 Pro uses the same Snapdragon 865+ chipset as the ROG phone 3. But Zenfone 7 Pro as well as the normal version are not the gaming phones. This time, the main focus of Asus is its camera. Both phones are launched today in Taiwan.
Asus is step by step improving its flip-up camera first by adding a telephoto zoom lens, and also improving the flip-up mechanism itself. In this phone, Asus uses a smaller motor that has more than double the torque. Camera and main body connection are improved and rated for 100 flips a day for 5 years straight. Also, once open, it can withstand 35 kg of weight pushing it forward.
Camera
Coming to its camera, the telephoto cam has an 80mm lens, which means you will get 3x optical zoom by this. An extra advantage of Asus Zenfone 7 Pro is its telephoto camera has optical image stabilization. That means. less shaky and sharp images you can click. On the vanilla model, neither camera has optical image stabilization.
It has a main camera of a 64-megapixel Sony IMX686 sensor with 2×1 OCL autofocus. You can shoot 8K videos at 30 fps and 120 fps slow motion is supported at 4K. Night mode has also been improved with HDR video mode.
Apart from its main camera, it has a 12-megapixel ultrawide-angle camera that uses the IMX363 sensor. This wide-angle camera offers autofocus, which is very rare for ultra wides. Also, it has Dual Pixel AF to boot. This sensor is capable to shoot 4K videos, which is used in HyperSteady Video mode. This camera also doubles as a macro lens, the autofocus system can focus at just 4 cm distance.
Stellar selfies is another interesting and rare feature of Zenfone 7 duo. It has the large 1/1.72″ sensor plus dual ED flash. Still most of the flagship phones do not have the auto focus technology on their front cameras. As it is a flip-up camera, you can record 8K/30 fps and 4K/120 fps selfie videos. Also, you can use the ultrawide sensor to click wide selfies.
Display
Coming to the display of this phone, both the Zenfone 7 smartphones use a Samsung-made AMOLED panel, a 6.67-inch huge screen, and protected by Gorilla Glass 6. The resolution of the screen is 1080+ (20:9), a peak brightness of 1,000 nits, DC dimming for flicker-free low-brightness operation, plus Always On mode, 110% DCI-P3 coverage and an accurate color calibration out of the box.
Refresh rate of the screen is 90Hz and 200Hz touch sampling rate. This phone is powered by the S865+ chipset on the pro model, and that’s why you can play such powerful games without lag just like a gaming phone. The vanilla model is also powered by S865, but it is non plus in this model.
Storage
Zenfone 7 has two variants of RAM (6GB and 8GB) and Zenfone 7 Pro comes up with only 8GB RAM. Storage is UFS 3.1, 128GB for the vanilla model, and 256GB for the Pro model. Both have triple card slots. Two slots for dual SIMs and most importantly, a dedicated slot for microSD. Both the phones also support 5G connectivity, if it wasn’t clear from the chipset.
Battery and Charging
Coming to its battery part, there is a major improvement in this year’s model, which is the 30W fast charging support for the 5,000 mAH battery. 34 minutes of charging gets you from completely drained to 60%. If we compare it with Zenfone 6 (18W charging), Zenfone 6 needed 57 minutes to accomplish the same.
Also you can control your charging limit in this phone, just like other ROG phones from Asus. You can limit the maximum charge to 80% or 90% and also we can set a charging schedule so it goes slowly at night and fast charging in the morning. So, in the case of charging, you will have absolutely zero issue.
The Zenfone 7 duo is pretty sturdy with a series 6000 aluminium body, between two layers of glass. Also there is a support of GG6 on the front and GG3 on the back – Corning’s mot scratch-resistant glass.
Others
These phones have a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. As the Zenfone duo has an OLED display, on display fingerprint sensor was not a bad option too. But it was the choice of the officials to make it side-mounted. Unfortunately, the 3.5 mm headphone jack was axed. But, you will get aptX Adaptive support.
Price and Availability
The Asus will provide the Asus active cases to protect the phone and its flip-up camera. You don’t have to buy it. This case comes in the box itself. Coming to its release date, The Asus Zenfone 7 and 7 Pro will be released globally on September 1.
Zenfone 7 Pro 8GB 256GB NT$27,990/ €800/ $950 (debut in Taiwan market)
Global pricing will be confirmed in the upcoming weeks. As per officials, they may not be as cheap as we are hoping. These phones have such strong specifications which we can hardly find in most of the flagships. The OnePlus Pros also have stong specs but do not have expandable storage and costs are even more.

Everton is ready to bring James Rodríguez on a permanent deal from Real Madrid. Several reports claim that Everton will have to pay 20M for James.
According to Italian reporter Fabrizio Romano, ‘Real Madrid are in advanced talks with Everton for James Rodriguez to be sold in the next days. The deal is not done – but Carlo Ancelotti already contacted James to convince him.’
Real Madrid are in advanced talks with Everton for James Rodriguez to be sold on next days. The deal is not done – but Carlo Ancelotti already contacted James to convince him. Real are also in negotiations with AC Milan to loan out Brahim Diaz. 🇪🇸 #RealMadrid#Real#EFC#Everton
James joined Real Madrid in 2014 after his brilliant display in the 2014 World Cup. He won the World Cup golden boot that year. Every big European Club was interested to sign him then. But he chose Real Madrid.
However, he has struggled to secure his place in the team and became out of favor of their manager Zinedine Zidane. He was sent to Bayern Munich on loan for two seasons and won back to back Bundesliga with them. But nothing has changed after his return to Santiago Bernabeu.
In his four seasons with Real Madrid [excluding 2 years of the loan with Bayern Munich] he just made 85 appearances for them and scored only 29 goals. Last season he made only 8 appearances in La Liga.
The 29-year-old Colombian international wants a team where he can get much more game time to play. Everton can be a suitable destination for him. Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti brought him to Madrid and he likes James.
Now he wants the Colombian in Everton to compete in English Premier League. It will be a good addition to the Merseyside Club if the deal has been made.
LG has been showing us dual-screen smartphones along with other leading brands in the market. The foldable dial screen smartphones of LG are pretty expensive. Even with the trend of foldable smartphones are going on in the market the company is trying to keep up with it. The LG G8X is the last foldable smartphone from the company with dual screen display like the Microsoft Duo. It is now available at Rs.45,000 in Flipkart’s Qualcomm sale.
Recently a video shared by Android Authority shows a new design or prototype of a LG smartphone. The name is given LG Wing, might be because of its ‘T-shaped’ design that looks like a ‘Wing’ of the smartphone. To describe it properly, you have to understand that the phone has two segments, one that rotates and one that is the base which is still. In the video we can see a full view display said to be of 6.8-inches and a smaller display at the side of the phone, said to be of 4-inches.
Now coming to the mechanism, we can see the mobile holder in the car holding the tilted portion of the smartphone, which is originally the base of the smartphone. The upper portion of the phone is rotatable which has the larger screen and thus forming a ‘T-shaped’ design with the base which has a 4-inch display. The bigger screen has the normal primary display functions for the smartphone, the secondary screen can be used for other purposes to be accessed simultaneously.
This smartphone seems to be a prototype model of the smartphone. The phone seems to run the Google Maps in the main screen and the secondary screen is playing music and the call came later on displayed on the secondary small screen. Thus it seems the priority app is being displayed on the main display while the others get its place on the smaller one.
The phone is expected to have Snapdragon 765G this time with an upper mid-range chipset to reduce the cost of phone. Otherwise the Snapdragon 865 chipset along with this phone might have made it crazy expensive.
The Indian e-commerce platform Flipkart yesterday announced its aim to fully switch to electronics vehicles from normal fleets by 2030. Taking this step, Flipkart is joining EV100, the Climate Group’s global electronic mobility initiative.
To fulfill the target Flipkart is planning to go forward phase by phase.

Awareness programs and incentives delivery executives also will be conducted.
In a statement, the CEO of Flipkart Kalyan Krishnamurthy said, “Our commitment to the Climate Group’s EV100 initiative ties in with this larger vision of environmental sustainability and allows us to learn from the most forward-thinking global perspectives as part of the EV100 ecosystem.

“Flipkart will play a significant role in fostering innovation in technology and exchanging knowledge on e-mobility within our global network of committed businesses. To help make swift emissions cuts and improve air quality for the long-term, we urge more Indian companies to follow suit, sending a powerful signal of support to policymakers wishing to see a faster roll-out of EVs,” – Divya Sharma, the Indian Executive Director of Climate Group.
After spending about 20 years at the club, Lionel Messi, arguably the greatest footballer of this generation wants to leave his dream club. Till now it was a joke and rumour which almost no one cared because Messi always wants to retire at Camp Nou.
However, this is the closest-ever this situation has gone through as Messi faxed the club on Tuesday that he wants to leave. The forward has a clause in his contract that allows him to walk away for free, after each season that expired on June 11.
This time the season has been stretched longer due to the Coronavirus pandemic, so technically Messi still has this month to ask to leave for free. The Barcelona board wants to go through a legal scrap with Messi this time.
According to a report by El Pais, Fifa will NOT stand in Messi’s way if he wants a swift Barcelona exit. They see the transfer as perfectly valid – and even if Barca want to go to CAS – it could be resolved quickly.
It is reported that the English club has about 300 million euros to invest in signings this summer and they have already started calculating how they can afford Messi.
According to El Mundo journalist Francesc Aguilar, Manchester City football chief Ferran Soriano has “has made it known to Messi that the club are capable of financing the operation even if they are forced to pay a transfer [fee].”
The news of Manchester City could finance a deal for Messi has sent shockwaves through the football world. If this transfer happens this would definitely be the biggest signing ever to arrive in English football.
Lionel is on the verge of leaving the club and it has been confirmed that with a bureaufax the Argentine has communicated to the club that he wants to leave the club. The forward has a clause in his contract that allows him to walk away for free, after each season that expired on June 11.
This time the season has been stretched longer due to the Coronavirus pandemic, so technically Messi still has this month to ask to leave for free. The Barcelona board wants to go through a legal scrap with Messi this time.
It seems the Lionel Messi transfer saga will continue for the next few days with the possibility of the Argentine joining Premier League side Manchester City looming large.
Although there are not many clubs who can afford Lionel Messi, Manchester City are among the few who can actually afford the Argentine.
There’s another advantage for City in the form of Pep Guardiola. He shares a good relationship with Messi and he always liked him to come to the Etihad stadium. Guardiola brought the best out of Messi during their time together at Camp Nou.
But now the biggest question is can Lionel Messi do it in England even at 33 years of age?
This is Lionel Messi’s stat against the big six clubs of Premier League:
Arsenal – 6 games, 9 goals
Manchester City – 6 games, 6 goals
Manchester United – 6 games, 4 goals
Chelsea – 10 games, 3 goals
Liverpool – 4 games, 2 goals
Tottenham Hotspur – 1 game, 2 goals
If Messi can do it against the big six, he can definitely do it against the other Premier League clubs as well.
Lionel Messi moving to Manchester City could prove to be a masterstroke as both Messi and Guardiola hopes to win a Champions League after a long gap. Guardiola last won the European competition with Barcelona which had Lionel Messi in the team.
So yes, Messi could very well prosper in the Premier League even at 33 years.
