NOKIA RETURNS

Nokia has ruled the World market for more than a  decade. But as Nokia has produced smartphones on unpopular windows OS rather than popular Android OS, leads to decline of Nokia. Due to downfall of Nokia’s market share, they sold their devices and service unit to Microsoft. But also under Microsoft, Nokia sale has fallen down, due to fall in sale, Microsoft has sold Nokia phone manufacturing and marketing rights to a Finnish company HMD Global. HMD Global has launched a smartphone named Nokia 6 which runs on popular Android OS. There is also a strong rumors that HMD Global will launch another 5 smartphones under the name of Nokia. The smartphones are from low budget to high budget.

625 VS 650 WHICH IS BETTER?

Qualcomm has launched the snapdragon 650 in December 2015, and again in February 2016 they launched another chipset in the 600 series i.e. named snapdragon 625. After the launch of 625 many people are confused that which one is powerful and which one is power efficient between these two chipsets and me as a techie guy investigated a lot about the chipsets and presented a comparison before you. Firstly I shall give you information about both these chipsets.

Snapdragon 650

This chipset is a hexa-core processor in which there are two powerful cortex A-72 cores and four less powerful cortex A-53 cores. The powerful cores are clocked at 1.8 GHz and the less powerful cores are clocked at 1.4 GHz. Here, you should know that the performance of A-72 core is better than A-52 core. It is made on older 28 nm technology. It has adreno 510 GPU. It supports 2K Display.

Snapdragon 625

On the other hand this chipset is an octa-core processor in which there are 8 similar A-53 cores are present, which is clocked at 2GHz. It is made on superior 14nm architecture. It had adreno 506 GPU. It supports FULL HD display.

FINAL BITES-

On paper the 650 chipset looks more powerful when compared with 625 but in real life there is not much difference in the performance of the chipsets. As 650 has two A-72 cores, therefore when we push it more, it has a slight edge over 625. But as the 650 has more powerful A-72 cores therefore it consumes much battery and tends to heat while very heavy usage. Heating throttle the processor and then it tends to lag.

As the 625 is made on 14 nm fin fit technology it consumes less battery and therefore it is much power efficient.

So in my view 625 is an overall good chipset which gives performance as well as power efficiency but at the same time I am also not saying that 650 is a bad chip

XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 4 REVIEW

Xiaomi has again unveiled a budget smart phone in the starting of the year 2k17,this budget phone has been launched in china in the month of august. This device is the successor of redmi note 3 which has been launched in the mid of 2k16. As it is the successor of redmi note 3,it has many things similar to it. The design and build quality looks similar but as you hold the device in your hand you can easily find the difference between the both phones. The successor has chamfered edges and it gives good feel and grip in the hand. The phone comes with FULL HD Display, Fingerprint sensor and other basic sensors. It gets the power from 4100 mAh built-in battery.

SPECIFICATIONS:-

REDMI NOTE 4

SCREEN:- FULL HD(1080*1920) 5.5 INCH

PROCESSOR:- SNAPDRAGON 625 2GHZ OCTACORE

RAM:-2/3/4 GB

STORAGE:- 32/64 GB

BATTERY :- 4100 mAh

CAMERA:-

                                    I.  REAR:- 13MP

                       II. FRONT:-5MP

OS:- ANDROID MARSHMALLOW 6.0.1

EXPANDABLE STORAGE :-UP TO 128GB

SIM:- DUAL, BOTH SUPPORTS 4G

REVIEW:-

PERFORMANCE:-

The device is powered by snapdragon 625 SOC which is a degrade from its predecessor redmi note 3 as it has snapdragon 650 SOC. But in regular uses you can’t find any difference between these two phones. And in fact if you push these phones more the note 4 performs better. If you do heavy gaming on these two phones the note 3 starts to heat and lag after just 10-20 minutes of usage. But this is not so in the case of redmi note 4 as it is powered by snapdragon 625 SOC which is made on much superior 14nm architecture with fin fit technology. So it performs better than 650 SOC present in note 3 which is made on 28 nm older technology. So when we play heavy games on Redmi note 3 more than 20 minutes its tends to heat and lag. So performance on heavy usage is better in redmi note 4.

BATTERY:-

The redmi note 4 is powered by a 4100 mAh built-in battery which gives you a backup of up to 2 days on normal usage with screen on time somewhere between 7-8 hours. Xiaomi has claimed that it has 25% more battery than redmi note 3.

CAMERA:- There is a 13MP rear camera with dual tone led flash and phase detection auto focus(PDAF). It has also a 5MP front camera. The performance of the camera is good in day light conditions but in low lighting and artificial lighting the performance is decent. The performance of camera has slightly increased as compare to redmi note 3.

OS- It runs on android 6.0.1 on the xiaomi custom skin MIUI 8. The UI is very fluid and it never lags in usage

Variants:-

                                I. 2GB RAM 32GB STORAGE

                               II. 3GB RAM 32 GB STORAGE

                              III. 4GB RAM 64GB STORAGE

The colour variants are also available.

CONS:- The only con is the average camera performance and lots of preloaded apps present in the phone and it takes approximately 3 hrs to charge.

FINAL BITE-  The redmi note 4 is a great device if you are looking for a phone with smooth performance good battery life and good build quality
