In a few days, Realme will be launching its flagship Realme X2 Pro with Snapdragon Plus and they have already teased a lot of things about the smartphone. Now, recently Flipkart is teasing that another smartphone named Realme 5s will be launching alongside the flagship smartphone.
Yesterday, only the back portion of the smartphone and now Flipkart has updated the page along with the total smartphone that sports a waterdrop-stye notch, and also mentioning some key specs of the smartphone as well.
The tagline that is being used to promote the upcoming device is “48MP Quad Camera Powerhouse” and the tagline justifies the smartphone’s real essence. It will be a 48MP quad-camera bearing smartphone that will bridge the gap between the Realme 5 and Realme 5 Pro.
Featuring the same diamond-cut design on the back as you see on the Realme 5 series and a quad-camera setup. The setup features a 48-megapixel primary camera, a wide-angle lens, a depth sensor, and a macro lens.
The teaser page confirms that the Realme 5s will pack a 5,000mAh battery and apart from this there are no confirmed details regarding the internal specifications of the smartphone. Still, we expect the Realme 5s to pack the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 SoC, 6.5-inch HD+ screen, 13MP front camera and run on ColorOS 6.
Leaked specs even reveal that the smartphone will carry 4GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage. This smartphone has been named RMX1925 and surely will be priced around Rs.10-11k price segment so that more people can get access to 48MP camera.
One of the most anticipated smartphones goes official, Motorola’s new Moto Razr 2019 with Foldable Display is here. This will be refreshed version to the original Moto Razr phone that was indeed the best selling device of the last decade.
This new smartphone looks like to the original Moto Razr from the outside and packs a foldable display underneath. Moto Razr 2019 is a cool smartphone by the Lenovo-owned brand that comes in a clamshell form factor, carrying the nostalgia of the original one.
Features and Specifications
The Moto Razr 2019 has a cool design and features two displays – a bigger primary display that can be used when the phone is unfolded, and a small secondary display outside that shows basic things including time, notifications, chats, incoming calls and other such info while the phone is kept folded.
One of the main highlights of this phone is the Razr’s hinge mechanism that is getting most of the attention in the press. This unique designed hinge allows the flexible display to curl into a small flip phone in order to prevent creases and to keep dust out.
The main display here features a 6.2-inch 2142×876 plastic OLED foldable display with a 21:9 aspect ratio, on the other hand, the secondary display is a ‘Quick View’ 2.7-inch OLED 600×800 screen designed for implementing simple functions.
On the camera front, we have a 5 MP front-facing camera underneath the small notch of the primary folding display which comes into action while unfolded. Otherwise, there’s the main 16MP Sony IMX 519 rear sensor that is used to take pictures while it’s unfolded and can also be used as a selfie camera while folded.
Coming to the performance of this unique smartphone, Motorola has done some compromises to keep this form factor intact. They have used a mid-range Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 SoC paired with 6 GB of LPDDR4 RAM and 128 GB of non-expandable storage.
Like the old Razr phone, Motorola has kept a chin at the bottom that holds the fingerprint reader, 4G antenna, and the primary speaker. The plastic back covers a modest 2510 mAh battery which comes included 15 Watt USB-C fast charger. As it has Motorola’s own “nanocoating” waterproofing, the new Moto Razr will remain splashproof.
Surprisingly, there’s also no SIM slot present rather, network connections are handled via an eSIM. Adding to that, the Moto Razr 2019 will ship with Android 9 Pie out-of-box but Motorola promises for a quick Android 10 upgrade as well.
Pricing & Availability
Talking about price, this unique yet nostalgic foldable phone will cost you a hefty US $1499.99 and shipping will start from January and will be exclusively available on Verizon Wireless.
Last night, Motorola India on Twitter updated its header image to the Motorola Razr which roused speculations and with its tweet of “all-new #motorolarazr is coming soon to India!”. we all know it will be available in India soon. But yes as it’s priced at $1499.99, roughly Rs.1,10,000, in India inclusive of taxes price of it might go up to Rs.1,25,000.

The new El Clasico date and time has been officially confirmed by Laliga.
The first El Clasico of this season was due to held on 26th October at Camp Nou. But the match was postponed due to the ongoing disturbances in the Catalan region in north-east Spain.
Violent protests have been taking place in the Catalan region. Spanish supreme court jailed nine Catalan separatist leaders over their roles in organising an independence referendum in 2017.
So, Barcelona and Real Madrid agreed on a new El Clasico date. This season’s first El Clasico will now take place at the Camp Nou on 18th December 2019, which will kick-off at 20:00 CET. LaLiga has now officially confirmed this date and time.
Initially, LaLiga’s preference was 7th December, so it could stage its showpiece fixture on a Saturday and confirmed it would assess the possibility of legal action following RFEF’s announcement. But now they have officially confirmed that they too have accepted the 18th December showdown.
The El Clasico will now take place on a Wednesday evening. Barcelona will play against Real Sociedad, meanwhile, Real Madrid will face Valencia before the El Clasico.
Barcelona and Real Madrid are now level on 25 points at the top of LaLiga after 12 matches this season, with the Blaugrana leading on goal difference. Atletico Madrid are a point behind but have played a game more as a result of the El Clasico postponement.

Chip giant Qualcomm’s next major SoC is coming in a few weeks, which was previously thought to be launched in November. But now, it’s pretty clear that Qualcomm will be launching the Snapdragon 865 at its annual Tech Summit scheduled for early December.
Considering the fact that we are a few weeks away from the launch, leaks were expected to be flooding, even though some info has been leaked via a Chinese forum Weibo user Digital Chat Station. According to this guy the Snapdragon 865 is apparently sticking to the 8-core formula but with decent upgrades in the cores.
Expected to be formulated on TSMC’s 7nm+ technology, this new SoC packs a high-performance Kryo Gold Cortex-A77 core clocked at 2.84 GHz along with 3 slightly underclocked A77 cores running at 2.42 GHz. To balance the high-performance cores there are 4 Kryo Silver cores with 1.8 GHz clock speeds.
Leaks further state that this new 8 core cluster should provide 20% increased performance than the previous Snapdragon 855 model. Also, the Snapdragon 865 SoC is equipped with an improved Adreno 650 GPU clocked at 587 MHz, providing 17-20% better graphical performance than the previous Adreno 640 GPU.
Even though the specs seem impressive but cannot guarantee a victory over Apple’s stronger A13 Bionic SoC which is almost up to 50% faster than the predecessor Snapdragon 855 Plus.
Still, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 will be the flagship chipset for 2020, built on an improved 7nm+ node, bringing decent improvements over last-gen and implementing much-required features like 5G modem and LPDDR5 RAM support.
HP launches the world’s lightest business convertible laptop – the HP Elite Dragonfly with 8th Gen Intel Core U-series vPro processor at Rs.1,49,990
HP originally announced the Elite Dragonfly 2-in-1 business-oriented laptop back in September this year. This new ultra-portable business-focussed convertible laptop is a powerhouse even though weighing less than 1kg.
This thin and light laptop is a premium one by the looks of it, comes in the shade of deep blue. The laptop has a CNC machined magnesium construction that makes it light and durable.
It is MIL-STD 810G standard certified, so it can survive drops from a height of up to 76cm. The Elite Dragonfly is lighter than all the previous generations of Elite notebooks by HP and its directly challenges LG’s Gram series.
The default variant features a 13.3-inch touchscreen FHD display with 86% screen-to-body ratio and 400 nits of brightness that consumes only 1W of power. You’ll be getting best battery life with the FHD one, but if you are looking for a sharper, brighter screen, HP is also offering a UHD display panel with HDR support and 550 nits of brightness.
The new HP Elite Dragonfly is designed for the modern workforce that will empower professionals to be free to work in their own way and unlock their potential to succeed in the new digital economy
Vinay Awasthi, Managing Director, HP India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka
Being a 2-in-1 laptop, you can bend it to 360 degrees, in case if you want to use it as a tablet or write on its display using a stylus. It supports active styluses, but they need to purchased separately not like the HP Pavilion x360 series where the HP stylus is included.
Coming to the internal specs, the Elite Dragonfly is powered by 8th Gen Intel Core U-series vPro processor which according to Intel, is “enterprise-class, but consumer-friendly.” You can choose from the Intel Core i3-8145U to the Intel Core i7-8565U that comes Intel UHD Graphics 620 iGPU.
The laptop can be configured up to 16GB of dual-channel LPDDR3 RAM, and 2TB of NVMe SSD storage. The entry-level models ship with 8GB of RAM and relatively slower 128GB M.2 SATA drive.
Among other features, the inclusion of the latest Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), allows for 5x faster internet speeds than 802.11ac. Also, there’s the option of 4G LTE version if you want always-on connectivity feature. HP has even added 4×4 antennas to the laptop that enhances the network reception of the laptop.
HP claims that it has redesigned the laptop’s keyboard to be quieter than ever before but still offers a decent 1.3-millimetre key travel. For the ports & connectivity, we have 2 Thunderbolt 3 ports, a USB 3.1 Gen-1 port, an HDMI port, 3.5mm audio jack, and a Kensington lock.

By default the laptop that weighs less than 1kg packs in a 38Wh battery which gives a good 16.5 hours of continuous performance. Now, if battery life is your main concern, then sacrifice the 1kg weight and you have the option of 56Wh battery that gives you a nonstop 24.5 hours of battery life which is just insane!
Both of these batteries support HP’s Fast Charge feature, that can charge up to 50 per cent in just 30 minutes. HP has priced the Elite Dragonfly 2-in-1 notebook at Rs.1,49,990 for the base variant and will be available in the country from December 1.
“Indian workforce is extremely mobile and needs computing devices that are light, durable, always connected and secure,” added Vickram Bedi, Senior Director, Personal Systems, HP India.
“We designed the HP Elite Dragonfly to enable today’s mobile workers to unleash their potential wherever they are, whenever they want,” said Bedi.
This professional business-oriented laptop will be handy for professionals who need performance without sacrificing portability and long battery life. Though this is more commercially oriented, normal consumers will also benefit from buying this productive 2-in-1 laptop.
Deepak Chahar scripted history as he became the first Indian male to claim a hat-trick in Twenty20 Internationals (T20I) during the third T20I against Bangladesh in Nagpur on Sunday.
Chahar’s sensational bowling figures at Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur brought Bangladesh down on its knees as the Indian pacer shattered several records in a match that was once in visitor’s favour thanks to Mohammad Naim’s (81 off 48) blinder.
Chahar broke the back of Bangladeshi batting line up by bagging 6/7 in his four overs (3.2), taking a hat-trick to finish the business as Bangladesh tumbled and lost the match by 30 runs and series 2-1.
But it didn’t stop there. This was Chahar’s maiden five-wicket haul and his bowling figures on Sunday night happened to be the best T20I figures ever. He was awarded Man of the Match and Man of the Series for his invaluable contribution to the Rohit Sharma-led squad.
Chahar’s sensational bowling figures of 3.2-0-7-6 brought Bangladesh down on its knees. He is the 2nd Indian bowler to claim a T20I hat-trick.
Left-arm spinner and first International woman cricketer from Uttarakhand Ekta Bisht achieved the feat seven years ago in a T20I match against Sri Lanka.
Chahar went past Sri Lanka’s Ajantha Mendis who had taken six wickets for eight runs against Zimbabwe back in 2012.
Apart from Chahar and Mendis, who has picked up six wickets twice in T20Is, Yuzvendra Chahal is the only other bowler who has claimed six wickets in a T20I match.
In the match, India posted 174 for five after being put into bat by Bangladesh in the series-decider in Nagpur.
Shreyas Iyer top-scored for India with a knock of 62 while KL Rahul chipped in with a half-century.
Chasing 175 for the win, Bangladesh fell short by 30 runs as Deepak Chahar (6/7) and Shivam Dube, playing his third T20I, claimed three wickets.
Chahar finished the game in the last over by picking up two wickets in two balls to bowl out Bangladesh.

Realme X2 Pro with Snapdragon 855 Plus SoC, 90Hz display and 50W fast charging to debut in India on November 20, expected to be priced under Rs.30,000
Realme is the only smartphone brand that has stormed the smartphone market since its evolution in 2018. The company was started to have grabbed 16% of the smartphone market share in India in Q3 2019 and in world Realme has made its mark by ranking 7th globally.
It is surprising to see that even though Realme is more of a budget-oriented smartphone manufacturer, still it has shipped more than 10 million units in Q3 2019 worldwide, India being its major market. After separating from Oppo, Realme never looked back, launching over 13 smartphones in just 18 months time.
Most of its smartphones deliver amazing specs at affordable price segments, which was in fact, the motto for Xiaomi. With the advent of Realme, the stagnant budget smartphone market got revived and we got to see some amazing smartphones from Realme, Xiaomi, and Samsung.
Realme’s best smartphone till date might be the Realme 3 Pro which truly shook the mid-range smartphone market, followed by the Realme X, Realme 5 Pro and Realme XT.
India is the only place that has an amazing smartphone market, that’s why we are seeing key players concentrating in India, even Apple is now looking to make iPhones in India as well. The premium smartphone is growing steadily in the country and OnePlus & Samsung are the key players in this segment followed by Apple, Oppo and Vivo as well.
OnePlus smartphones have also become quite costly these days especially the Pro ones, Xiaomi’s Redmi K20 series tried to eradicate this and got decent success in India. Realme now wants to make a bigger move this time, launching its much-awaited Realme X2 Pro which will be the company’s first-ever “true flagship” smartphone.
Both the Realme X2 and Realme X2 Pro has been launched worldwide, and now the wait is over, as Realme is teasing the launch of its new flagship series on November 20th. Most of the specs of these two smartphones are know and here the specs:
Realme X2 Specs
6.4-inch dew-drop Super AMOLED display with 2340-by-1080-pixel resolution & 91.9% screen-to-body ratio
8nm Octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G SoC with up to 2.2GHz clock speed
6GB/8GB LPDDR4X RAM
64GB/128GB UFS 2.1 ROM
Take amazing photos like this with our #realmeX2 and its:
-64MP camera with ultra-clear mode -Ultra-wide angle camera -Macro lens -Portrait lens -32MP selfie camera
4000mAh battery with 50W SuperVOOC Flash Charge support
4*4 MIMO WIFI support
Dual Stereo Speakers with Dolby Atmos
In-display fingerprint scanner
ColorOS 6
Honestly, the Realme X2 Pro is truly a flagship smartphone in every aspect, considering the fact that it will be priced around Rs.26,000 this will be a great deal for smartphone buyers. This smartphone’s three key specs are the 90Hz display, Snapdragon 855+ SoC and the 50W SuperVOOC Flash Charge support.
In this price segment, this will be the first smartphone to offer a 90Hz display feature and featuring the best ever Snapdragon 855+ SoC at this price, gamers can get a really killer smartphone after the Poco F1.
Another important feature that generally smartphone vendors miss is the fast charge support and with the Realme X2 Pro Realme has taken the game up to some other level. It is because the 50W SuperVOOC Flash Charge claims that it can fully charge the device in just 33 minutes, which is insane!
On the camera front, we have a 64MP Quad Camera with 20x Hybrid Zoom that seems to be promising. Realme have had never compromised on the camera quality and its user reviews say it all and we can expect great camera performance from the Realme X2 Pro as well. Also, the camera supports 4K video recording at 60fps along with Ultra image stabilization for the rear camera.
Even though there might be some compromises, but the killer specs at this price segment makes this smartphone a true flagship in the mid-range smartphone section. The glass back with beautiful design along with fast in-display fingerprint scanner, Realme has taken care of the most needed features of a smartphone perfectly.
The Realme X2 Pro is all set to launch on November 20 and will be priced under Rs 30,000 in India giving a tough competition to OnePlus 7T and the Redmi K20 Pro. There will be 3 versions of the smartphone: 6GB of RAM and 64GB UFS 2.1 internal storage and 8GB + 128GB and 12GB + 256GB variants featuring a faster UFS 3.0 storage.
The much-awaited online gaming service by Google is here, the mobile version of Google Stadia will be available via its app which is already released on its popular Play Store for Android devices in the US only. Stadia which is Google’s own cloud-based game streaming service will officially commence from November 19.
9to5Google reported on Friday that opening the app, we see Google promoting the game Destiny 2, which will be one of the first games that will be offered to Stadia users. On clicking the “Get Started” link, users get redirected to a screen stating that it is “Waking up the GPUs.”
The app even asks for your Google account confirmation and other gaming quotes like “Building Rome” and “Reticulating Splines” have also been spotted by readers. For playing a game, sadly, you’ll need an invite code to join the service, and without having one, all you’ll be able to do is to explore as for now.
According to Google: “To play Stadia, you’ll also need a code that will be provided to you with a qualified purchase, such as Stadia Founder’s Edition or Stadia Premiere Edition”.
Stadia is a revolutionary gaming service by Google that will be using Google’s own servers. Google’s servers will be able to deliver 10.7 teraflops of GPU power, which is more than the 4.2 teraflops of the PS4 Pro and the 6 teraflops of power on the Xbox One X.
Each Stadia instance will also be powered by a custom 2.7GHz x86 processor with 16GB of RAM. Google has promised to provide rich graphics quality for every kind of device including basic graphics for smartphone, 720p or 1080p graphics for laptops or PCs at 60fps.
Google will be launching its new cloud gaming service Stadia to 14 countries this month at $9.99 a month starting off with 31 popular gaming titles from 21 different publishers.
The list of countries includes the US, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the UK. Sadly, India will not be part of the first release but nevertheless, it will surely arrive soon.
To get access to Stadia’s library of games you will have to subscribe to Stadia Pro that will cost $9.99 (Rs.700 approx) a month while the free version will let you buy games outright and play them on any device with Chrome installed. Buyers will be able to purchase Founder’s Edition of Google Stadia for $129.99.
According to the app’s Play Store listing page, the gaming service will support a number of different devices at launch, including the Pixel Slate, Acer Chromebook Tab 10, HP Chromebook X2, and Pixel devices including Pixel 2, Pixel 3, Pixel 3a and Pixel 4.
Here is the list of games that will available to you via Stadia gaming service:

Most of these games are very popular and demanding, few of them like Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Doom Eternal, Borderlands 3 are the latest ones. There are also undisclosed game titles coming from developers and game studios such as Capcom, Electronic Arts and Rockstar Games.
It’s impressive to see Google launch its service via smartphone so fast, as for the Indian enthusiasts, all I can say is to wait to until next year when the country will be part of the first round of expansions early next year.
We all know that AMD is very professional to make quality APUs, being the first company to start this feature. Its Ryzen APUs are quite famous among budget gamers who get decent frame rates in games by using these inbuilt Vega graphics.
When AMD launched the Ryzen 3000 CPUs, it also launched the second generation of Ryzen CPUs with integrated Vega graphics. These APUs were built on Zen+ architecture, possessing some minor improvements over the last-gen, what we were looking for was the 7nm Renoir APUs with Vega graphics.
So, according to prolific tech leaker Komachi, AMD’s upcoming Renoir Zen2 APUs could feature a Vega 12 iGPU and it is also being speculated that a Vega 15 iGPU is also highly probable. Though previously it was speculated that these APUs would be launching in November, now it seems that we have to wait until CES 2020.
Komachi on Twitter did identify several Renoir listings with B12 in the nomenclature indicating a 12 Compute Units iGPU. As the architecture is based on 7nm process, it does make sense more space is available in the APU to stack some more Compute units of Vega graphics, but number of cores remains unclear.
When Vega 12 is mostly expected to make its debut in the iGPU segment, hardware enthusiast Locuza even feels that Vega 13 or even a Vega 15 configuration can also be spotted.
Comparing the Vega CUs and their caches, Locuza speculates that the Vega 13 might have a 3+3+3+3+1 CU configuration with each CU cluster featuring 32 KB L1 instruction cache and 16 KB constant cache. Or there could be a more probable 3+3+3+2+2 config, on the other hand, the Vega 15 could be seen with a 3+3+3+3+3 configuration.
Clinging on to the Vega graphics with 7nm Renoir APUs, AMD might be reserving the Navi iGPU for Zen 2+ instead. This could be possible as AMD might not have enough time to figure out 7nm Navi for the Zen 2 based Ryzen 4000 Renoir APUs.
Also, if everything goes as expected, then the Renoir APUs can possibly beat the Intel Ice Lake Iris Plus G7 graphics and also eclipse the newer NVIDIA GeForce MX250 graphics, which eventually depends more on both the memory implementation and available bandwidth.
