The logo on the side of the graphics card was also made of a special material that can display different rainbow patterns at different angles. The logo has a built-in RGB lighting effect which can be customized through the GIGABYTE CONTROL CENTER software.
The graphics card comes with an upgraded metal back plate and a tailored anti-sag bracket for optimized reinforcement. The silver-white design of the bracket provides a more optimized reinforcement and improves the overall visual appearance. The AERO OC graphics card is perfect for installation in computer chassis with a light color and minimalistic style. If paired with an AERO series motherboard, the overall computer style will be even perfect.
The AERO OC graphics card is highly favoured by consumers for its impressive performance and elegant appearance. To deliver a better user experience, the AERO series graphics cards – GeForce RTX 4090 AERO OC 24G, GeForce RTX 4080 16GB AERO OC and GeForce RTX 4070 Ti AERO OC 12G provide customers with a 4-year warranty (requires online registration within 30 days of the purchase date) allowing consumers to immerse themselves in gaming or creation with peace of mind.
La Liga have announced the date and time of the next El Clasico of the season. Matchday 26 will see Barcelona host Real Madrid at the Camp Nou, in the third El Clasico of 22/23.
The first meeting between the two rivals in the league saw Real Madrid emerge as comfortable winners. But, it was the opposite outcome when the two met in Saudi Arabia. Barcelona defeated Madrid in the finals of the Supercopa de Espana to win their first trophy under Xavi Hernandez.
El Clasico 22/23 date and time revealed
🚨🚨✅ | Il y a une date précise fixée pour le retour de Dembele : 19 mars, El Clasico, Camp Nou.
The second El Clasico of the year will be played on March 19, at 2100 local time.
Barcelona have established a comfortable lead over the defending champions of Spain in the table. As things stand, they are at the top of the table with eight points more than Real Madrid who are second placed.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side have struggled to get consistent wins following the World Cup break, and have slipped up on several occasions. Barcelona, on the other hand, have maintained their consistency and have only conceded 7 goals from 22 games this season.
Their remarkable defence has been one of the main reasons behind their performance this season. And it now remains to be seen whether they can shut out their rivals one more time, or whether Real Madrid will be able to reduce the deficit in a few weeks’ time.
The Taiwan giant has been innovating off late with extreme laptops like this ZenBook 17 Fold OLED or ZenBook Pro 14 Duo OLED and others, but their OLED revolution has totally changed the laptop market forever. It’s due to them that most premium laptops these days have shifted to OLED and even they are the only ones to provide OLED panels at affordable pricing.
I like the fact that while disrupting the market they haven’t stopped innovating and they launched the Zenbook 17 Fold OLED last year. While we are a bit late receiving the laptop but still reviewing this wonder is always worth it! By the look of it, it again reminds me of the ZenBook premiumness, from packaging to minute details on the laptop.
As it comes folded one can never imagine how big this thing can be when stretched, like 17-inch is almost a monitor! Practically it exceeded my expectations and the design is clearly top-notch, if you remember, this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED resembles the flop Surface Duo that Microsoft launched.
While Microsoft did a disaster or say didn’t get it right in terms of how useful or polished the product will be for the customers, ASUS even handled this big challenge tactically. So, let’s do a deep dive into why this ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold OLED is an engineering marvel and does it justify the extraordinary price ASUS is asking.

Design & Build Quality
By the look of it, you will understand a lot of time has gone through designing this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED to perfection, there are two parts that have been merged carefully while still maintaining the ethnicity so that it doesn’t become too heavy or unusable. One irritating thing about the foldable has to be the crease between two screens which I also thought would be there on this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED but it isn’t to my surprise.
Whether you fold or unfold it, the careful design to hold the screen even when bent or kept in tent mode makes it an incredible thing. ASUS has made the display like a laptop and the hinge at the back is almost invisible, resulting in a huge uniform 17-inch foldable device which acts both as a huge display or a laptop or even a humongous tablet.
The best part of this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED is it isn’t a dream of concept anymore because you can readily buy it now and the advancement ASUS has done in its first attempt is truly appreciable. The hinge is rock-solid to hold the display, also you have support at the back which can be used to unfold and use this 17-inch display as an independent unit with the keyboard and a mouse.
While most won’t need this much luxury but having a laptop like this is itself a big deal, a foldable truth that truly exceeds any design. The build quality is also good and there’s no flaw of any sort I noticed but obviously, you have to be careful with how you fold or unfold, the rest of everything has been taken care of.
Display
Here I had full trust in ASUS having tested dozens of OLED laptops by them and this ZenBook 17 Fold OLED even with its 17.3-inch huge display there’s no compromise in quality. Promising up to 100% DCI-P3 color accuracy, this 2.5K display has a resolution of 2560 x 1920 and a 4:3 aspect ratio, going up to 500 nits of peak brightness.
With HDR support and VESA CERTIFIED display, both media consumption and productivity work can be done easily. Being PANTONE Validated display and having that blue light filter on it, helps a lot when you are working for long hours while still needing that perfection in work without hurting your eyes much.
Having a laptop like this ASUS ZenBook 17 Fold OLED is that you can use it as a big display for media consumption or casual stuff and work as well or just fold it, use the keyboard on top, and use it like a regular tablet. I was doing the latter because the practical use of that big 17-inch display in my work is less and so it depends on your use case completely.
Obviously, it’s a unique and niche product which will not be needed by the masses, targeted particularly for selective audiences who actually need this kind of flexibility. Let’s see how good the laptop’s display is in our SypderX Datacolor Pro tests:
As you see in the display tests, this ZenBook 17 Fold OLED’s massive 17.3-inch display performs as promised with up to 100% DCI-P3 color coverage. Not getting up to 500 nits of peak brightness but it’s still bright for taking it outdoors or for casual usage and with excellent contrast, overall, the display of the laptop is unique, foldable and impressive both in terms of color accuracy and brightness.
Performance
This ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold OLED is Intel EVO certified and is powered by the Core i7-1250U with 10 cores, which to be fair is efficient most of the time. However, with boost speeds of up to 4.7 GHz most demanding works are well met, however, you cannot do intense graphical work on this because of the lack of a dedicated GPU.
So, practically this is not for those heavy graphics editors or video editors but for mid-range users whose work is sufficed through web browsing, media consumption, quick reads, business calls and other casual stuff. Whenever I pushed for intense tasks, it could manage up to Photoshop or Lightroom to some extent or open multiple Chrome tabs but beyond that, it cannot sustain.
Now, you are paying over Rs.3lakh on this laptop for only doing basic work is kind of a shame but because ASUS has limitations to cool down the laptop and has to deal with design challenges, the need for strong hardware can’t be meant at least with this iteration of the laptop. So, here are some of the benchmarks of this ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold OLED for your reference so that you have a better idea about its performance:
In Performance mode, it does really perform well but mostly I used Whisper mode to conserve battery life as again this laptop draws a lot of power because of the all-display design. As you see in the benchmarks, this Core i7-1250U isn’t the most powerful out there you expect drawing from 9W to 15W but the performance is underwhelming considering it’s 2023.
In the new Geekbench 6, this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED came up with a 1900 single-core score and 4925 in multi-core, so its clear, the multi-core score is not very good, great for a low-TDP CPU but not for a laptop which is this expensive. During benchmarking too, the CPU remains controlled under 80 degrees celsius and the spike in temperature is not too high, so thermals are controlled.
If you also pay attention to the benchmarks, even the older Ryzen 4000 or 5000 series chips perform better at similar TDPs which again makes the use case of this laptop very limited. It’s only ideal for basic work and not pushing it to extreme workloads and productivity work, I hope ASUS works on the performance front in the next iteration of this extremely exciting laptop.
Connectivity & I/O
The ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold OLED comes with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, both supporting power delivery and display, and a 3.5mm Combo Audio Jack, that’s it, clean and minimal. However, you have to live a dongle life for those things which do not have Type-C ports which again comes as a con for a minimal design.
Also, you have the latest Wi-Fi 6E support which to be fair works pretty well and I do love the strong network coverage it has to offer. I was in another room from where my router was at home but still, I was getting a great signal and band-on download or upload speeds with very low latency.
Though ASUS used the older Bluetooth 5.0 standard there was no lag or problems connecting and using multiple Bluetooth devices like mouse, keyboard, etc.
Keyboard & Trackpad
The downside of having an all-display laptop is you have to rely on an on-screen keyboard but as human nature, we love the clickiness of a physical keyboard anyways. Previously as I remember, Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold had no physical keyboard and one had to rely on the on-screen one but ASUS played it right by including a soft detachable keyboard.
One can easily keep it on the second screen that automatically senses this and the folded display in front of you adapts right away, though then it becomes a Windows tablet for you, I didn’t mind doing my everyday work on it. Kind of I got used to doing work using the such setup as my work didn’t need the whole 17-inch display.
However, the supplied keyboard is very tactile and comfortable to type on and I loved using it every day, as the area is small, the trackpad is also small but still very usable for basic needs. Though a dedicated mouse is always good you still have the entire display with touch support to use any part of the screen using your hands itself.
Audio & Webcam
Coming to the audio, this ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold OLED won’t fail you like any other ASUS ZenBook laptop, having both Dolby Atmos and Vision support, it’s made for luxurious media consumption. You have a plethora of speakers across this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED that makes such great sounds that they can fill your entire room.
It is tuned to perfection and whether you listen to music or watch any movie or casual YouTube, the listening experience is really wholesome. Talking about the webcam of this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED, here you get a good 5MP camera with IR functionality and Windows Hello face recognition support as well, the quality is much better and very usable for taking business or casual video calls.
Battery Life
While ASUS advertises up to 9.5 hours of battery life with this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED, in reality, you can expect around 5 hours of actual usage if you keep the laptop folded, however, that reduces as you use the entire 17-inch display, decreases to 2-3 hours max.
I would have liked better battery life but still is quite decent and note we have used Whisper mode, so expect a further drop in battery life in Standard or Performance mode.
Verdict
Now comes the real question should you buy this ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold OLED for a hefty sum of ₹3,29,990 or not, personally I don’t have that amount to buy and I won’t be buying anyways because I still think this is more of a luxury for normal people. I do appreciate ASUS making such a unique product and I do think the future for foldable laptops is there.
However, making it available for the masses is still a job ASUS has to cope with but nevertheless, this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED is in itself a celebrity of its own. A totally unique laptop to brag about and if you are someone who likes impressive tech can actually go for it because a foldable laptop makes more sense than a smartphone.
Actually, this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED is in itself a design marvel though it has its own downside like it cannot be pushed with intense graphical workloads or its keyboard needs to be charged after every two-three days but for day-to-day usage, it’s very polished.
ASUS has given a lot of time designing and perfecting it and that is evident, having used it regularly never did I feel I was using a concept device or such. As of now, its pricing is high because of its uniqueness and making the tech is also expensive, so, if you can afford and want a foldable laptop you should definitely go for this Zenbook 17 Fold OLED.
Xiaomi is not having a good time now, while realme is not shy to use this opportunity in its favour and it seems to be cooking the realme C55 smartphone in its arsenal. Recently launched the realme 10 Pro Coca-Cola Edition and after that, it will surely bring more budget-centric smartphones which are its biggest target audience of course.
Already clearing BIS certification, the realme C55 has also cleared SIRIM certification and it seems realme is working to make this budget-centric smartphone ready for its fans. Not only that this phone has previously been spotted on Thai NBTC, European EEC and American FCC filings as well, making it increasingly evident of its existence.
This will be the successor to the popular realme C35 at the entry to the budget level segment, though not a lot of solid specs leak been heard of, but some features have been confirmed so far. So, this realme C55 is expected to feature a big 4,880mAh battery along with 33W USB Type-C fast charging support.
This phone has a model number RMX3710 and a battery having part number BLP875 and it will become the only realme C-series smartphone. In terms of pricing, most expect the starting price to be in line with the realme C35, however, it could start at Rs.13k in India.
The C33 sports a 6.5-inch HD+ display with 88.7% screen-to-body ratio, 400nits brightness, and 120Hz touch sampling rate. In terms of design, the phone comes with a boundless sea design with a right-angle bezel and 2D composite materials.
The C33 will come with a dual rear camerasetup with a 50MP main camera and the secondary camera might be a 2MP portrait shooter. The phone will feature a 5MP selfie camera on the front. As per the company, the camera has a new CHDR algorithm that enhances the highlight suppression and offers clearer backlit photos.
The phone is powered by a Unisoc T612 processor with a max clock speed of 1.8GHz. This SoC is paired with Arm Mai-G57 GPU. The phone comes in two configurations 一 3GB+32GB and 4GB+64GB. The phone also supports up to 1TB microSD card.
In a dominant win against Australia in the second Test, Virat Kohli reached the historic milestone of 25,000 international runs, becoming the fastest player to do so. The Indian captain surpassed the record previously held by Sachin Tendulkar, achieving the feat in just 549 innings.
Here are some highlights from ViratKohli’s achievement and the match:
Kohli’s impressive record: The Indian skipper has become the fastest player to cross 25,000 career runs in international cricket, doing so in just 549 innings. He has also surpassed Tendulkar’s record of reaching the same milestone in 577 innings.
Top 6 in international cricket: Kohli currently ranks sixth in international cricket in terms of runs, behind Jacques Kallis, Mahela Jayawardene, Ricky Ponting, Kumar Sangakkara, and Sachin Tendulkar.
Kohli’s red-ball performance: While Kohli has been in excellent form in white-ball cricket over the past few months, his red-ball performance fell short of expectations. He played two Tests against Bangladesh without scoring even a single fifty or higher. However, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy provides him with the ideal opportunity to score runs in the longest format of the game.
Kohli’s Nagpur record: Nagpur has been a fruitful hunting ground for Kohli, with the elegant batter amassing 354 runs in three games here. He has two centuries to his belt, including a double century against Sri Lanka in 2017.
Border-Gavaskar series: In the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series, Kohli has scored 1,682 runs in 36 innings, placing him eighth all-time after Tendulkar, Ponting, VVS Laxman, Rahul Dravid, Michael Clarke, and Cheteshwar Pujara.
India retains Border-Gavaskar Trophy: India’s dominant win in the second Test helped them retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Pat Cummins-led Australia began Day 3 with a 62-run lead, but India’s spin duo Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja outfoxed the rival batting unit. Jadeja returned a career-best seven-wicket haul, while Ashwin got three wickets to restrict the rival side to just 113 runs. India chased down the target of 115 runs, with Pujara and keeper-batter Srikar Bharat steering the side to victory.
A promise made with BDM, carried with Nike and full-filled with MRF! 🇮🇳
Virat Kohli’s achievement of becoming the fastest player to reach 25,000 international runs
This is a testament to his talent and hard work. With the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy providing him with the perfect opportunity to score runs in red-ball cricket, Kohli’s fans and admirers will be eagerly waiting to see him break more records in the future.
India vs Australia : India beat Australia by 6 wickets in the second test to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the four-match series. The dominant win was fueled by Jadeja’s brilliant bowling performance in the second innings, where he took 7 wickets for 42 runs in 12.1 overs. In response, India managed to chase down the target of 115 runs in 26.4 overs on the third day of the match. Captain Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara were batting on 12 and 1 respectively at lunch on day three.
Congratulations #TeamIndia on winning the Delhi test in grand style and further stamping authority over Australia in Test Cricket. Ashwin is a genius we must cherish more and Jadeja one of the best performers with bat and ball in Test cricket over the last 5 years. #IndvsAuspic.twitter.com/iKrrmQ7gvy
Here are some key takeaways from India vs Australia 2nd test match:
India’s spin bowling attack – India’s spin bowling attack took the game away from Australia. Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin were brilliant in the second innings. Jadeja’s performance was extraordinary as he spun the ball and exploited the conditions perfectly. Ashwin played a supporting role and helped Jadeja in bowling out the Australian team in the second innings.
Partnership between Jadeja and Virat, and then Axar-Ash was brilliant – Captain Rohit Sharma stated that the partnership between Jadeja and Virat Kohli and then Axar Patel and Ashwin was the game-changing moment of the match. The two partnerships helped India to take a lead in the first innings and chase down the target in the second innings. Both partnerships showed the importance of staying calm and focused while batting.
India’s batting performance – India’s batting performance was a mixed bag. While the openers failed to give India a good start, the middle order played well. Cheteshwar Pujara showed his class with his unbeaten knock of 22 runs off 70 balls in the second innings, which helped India to chase down the target. Rohit Sharma played a captain’s knock of 26 runs off 77 balls in the first innings, which helped India to take a lead of 131 runs.
Australia’s batting performance – Australia’s batting performance was disappointing in both innings. They failed to read the Indian spinners and lost wickets at regular intervals. Travis Head was the only Australian batsman who managed to score some runs and top-scored with 43 off 46 balls in the second innings.
India’s successive Tests at a venue without a defeat – India has played 13 successive Tests at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, without a defeat. The last time India lost a Test match at this venue was in 1987. This is a remarkable achievement and shows the strength of the Indian team at home.
Many congratulations #TeamIndia for retaining the #BorderGavaskarTrophy . Shami brillin the first inn, Ashwin and Jadeja were absolutely brilliant with the ball both innings, and then Axar Parel and Ashwin got India back into the match with a valiant partnership. #IndvsAuspic.twitter.com/1sRTMyr4jw
The man who’s fought tooth and nail for the Indian men’s test team for a 100 test matches… Test cricket can evolve, change but players like Pujara will always be the heart of it. Congratulations @cheteshwar1#INDvsAUSpic.twitter.com/o1JjHm2MOv
India’s win in the second test against Australia was a clinical performance. India’s spin bowling attack and partnerships between the middle order batsmen helped them to take a lead in the first innings and chase down the target in the second innings. Australia’s batting performance was disappointing, and they need to regroup and come back stronger in the next two tests. India has taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the four-match series and is well on the way to retaining the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
On Sunday, Saurashtra defeated Bengal by nine wickets to lift the Ranji Trophy title for the second time at the Eden Gardens. The winning captain, Jaydev Unadkat, picked up a six-wicket haul to lead his team home. He was named Man of the Match, and Arpit Vasavada was named Player of the Series, while Unadkat was named Player of the Match.
Saurashtra has won the Ranji Trophy for the second time in the last three seasons. In the second innings, Saurashtra only needed a 12-run target to chase. Harvik Desai scored the winning run, and Jay Gohil was dismissed for a golden duck.
Bengal struggled to put up a good fight throughout the final. Even though the moisture in the wicket made it difficult for their batsmen to perform, they still couldn’t match up to the performance of the Saurashtra players. Bengal tried their best to build partnerships but, unfortunately, it wasn’t enough.
However, despite the disappointing end, Bengal still had a good season. Saurashtra’s win was a fitting end to their red-ball season, as they dominated the Ranji Trophy throughout the season.
🏆 CHAMPIONS! Congratulations to the Saurashtra cricket team on winning the Ranji Trophy 2022-23. This is their 2nd title in 4 years.
Here are some highlights of Ranji Trophy 2023 Final – Saurashtra beats Bengal
Saurashtra’s dominating season – Saurashtra was dominant throughout the Ranji Trophy season, led by skipper Jaydev Unadkat.

Player of the Series – Arpit Vasavada was the player of the tournament. He scored 907 runs in 10 matches.
Bengal’s loss – Bengal failed to perform up to the mark, even after winning the toss. The moisture on the wicket was difficult for their batters to show their skill set. Bengal finished their second innings on 241, which gave Saurashtra only a 12-run target to chase.
Saurashtra’s dominant chase – Saurashtra’s opening pair, Harvik Desai and Jay Gohil, walked out to face Mukesh Kumar. They easily chased down the 12 runs and won the game with ease.
Unadkat’s fifer – Jaydev Unadkat picked up a five-wicket haul in the second innings and completed a six-wicket haul in the final. His impressive performance was instrumental in Saurashtra’s win.
Bengal’s positives – Manoj Tiwary stated that it had been a great season for Bengal, and they would work on their positives. He congratulated Saurashtra and BCCI for organizing the event so well.
A repeat of the 2019-20 final, and 🏆 number 2 for Saurashtra at the majestic Eden Gardens this time 🙌😍
In the battle between Tigers and Lions, the Lions have won this time, but Bengal will be much better prepared next time. According to Manoj Tiwary, there are always positives to take away from these matches, and they will work on those positives for next time.. Saurashtra’s win was a fitting end to their red-ball season, and they dominated the Ranji Trophy throughout the season. This win will definitely boost their confidence, and they will aim to carry this momentum in the upcoming seasons.
The match was full of excitement, with moments of nail-biting suspense as the last pair for Bengal tried to hold off the Saurashtra attack. However, the Saurashtra players proved too strong for their opponents in the end, securing their win with only one wicket left to take.
It was an exciting match to watch, and it was a great showcase of the best cricket players in India. Congratulations to Saurashtra on their well-deserved win!
Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta had to be rushed to the hospital after suffering a concussion on the pitch from a kick to the head.
The defender was struck by Sekou Mara, who attempted a bicycle kick without looking back. But, he instead caught Azpilicueta, who collapsed to the ground following a loud noise from the contact. And immediately, the medics had to rush to the pitch to take care of his injury.
Cesar Azpilicueta recovering steadily following horror injury
Hi everyone! Thank you all for your love and messages of support! My family and I would like to thank everyone who has been looking after me since yesterday’s incident… pic.twitter.com/suBCdIQbj6
“He’s in the hospital. He’s conscious and was speaking to his wife. We were obviously really concerned when it first happened. I think he was unconscious to begin with. It was worrying. A horrible incident,” Chelsea head coach Graham Potter said after the game was over.
Cesar Azpilicueta is conscious and is talking to his family now. He is recovering slowly, and should be discharged within the next few days. However, the time period for which he will be sidelined is unknown as of now.
The Spaniard recently made his 500th appearance for Chelsea, and is an iconic player for the club. His leadership and constant presence at the back has been vital to their success over the last decade. And given the injury crisis that the team has had to deal with this campaign, fans will be hopeful for a speedy recovery for the captain.
As we all know, Flipkart and Amazon are the two biggest online platforms in India to buy smartphones, in 2023, OnePlus made itself available in all price brackets in the country except the entry-level platform. However, people have appreciated that and on Amazon India, OnePlus is enjoying a great run of form, still its Nord CE 2 Lite 5G is the best-seller.
OnePlus is ruling the Amazon Bestsellers list
Now, after the recent launch of the OnePlus 11 series in India, literally, almost all smartphones sold on Amazon are overshadowed by Pete Lau’s company. Also, this is a byproduct of the fact that Xiaomi is distressed currently in India and its Redmi Note 12 5G didn’t have that much impact in the Indian market.
Xiaomi India’s long-term CEO left and though its subsidiary Poco is launching smartphones that are on Flipkart, this leaves OnePlus dominating on Amazon. In the top 10 Amazon bestsellers, you will notice 7 smartphones from the brand and in the top 12 it’s 8 by the smartphone giant.
This is mostly due to the brand again targeting its customers properly along with good products which again revived its prime status. The brand has a huge community in India and at the Cloud 11 event, this was very much evident, so, having a phone for every audience makes OnePlus powerful, especially in a mass market like India.
We feel the brand has a lot to achieve in 2023 because it has a plethora of products to offer, including its first tablet which we checked recently, TVs, routers and much more. Also, soon it will bring the Made-For-India flagship 11R on the 21st of Feb and after that expect this list to be filled with OnePlus smartphones only.
As per a statement issued by the company, the C55 model will be accessible for purchase in the Indian market, and they even announced the launch date officially. Posed by its new brand ambassador Hardik Pandya, the new C55 will be a rebranded Redmi 12C of China in India and that makes sense because Xiaomi has done this previously as well.
POCO C55: Launch Date & Specs
The POCO C55 model will finally become accessible in the Indian market on February 21, 2023.
As per rumours, it is a very budget-friendly smartphone.
The C55 is likely to include a dual camera configuration on the back side. t will feature a sizable camera island module with a fingerprint scanner installed on the back for additional security.
It has a MediaTek Helio G85 SoC and can support up to 6GB of RAM. The 50-megapixel main camera on the back is combined with a two-mp depth sensor.
