* OPPO 300W fast charging solution is tipped to be in the works. * This will match Redmi’s 300W charging tech that was announced in February. * The OPPO 300W solution is expected to break covers before the end of this year. * OPPO’s whopping 300W fast charging solution appears to be on its way.
Redmi 300Wultra-fast charging tech was amnounced back in February. Although the new charging solution is yet to be available on a commercial device, the tech surpassed Realme’s 240W charging solution.
OPPO seems to be working on a new solution that will match the 300W charging rate, according to noted tipster DigitalChatStation.
The new solution is said to be in development at the moment but will be paired with a 4,450mAh battery (4,600mAh battery typical).
We can probably expect the solution to break covers before the end of this year.
Over the past few years, there has been a rapid development of mobile phone charging tech. A few years ago, we only had 27W fast charging max.
However, by 2020, the charging power of mobile phones jumped to 65W. As of 2021, we already have 125W fast charging which slowly increased to 200W – 210W. Now, the industry is trying to take a huge leap to 300W super fast charging.
Redmi unveiled a modifiedRedmi Note 12 Pro+ a month ago. This device is able to handle a 300W fairy second charge and could be fully charged in only 5 minutes.
According to recent reports, a mass-produced model could be launched in the second part of the year. However, Redmi is not alone in the development of fast-charging tech.
OPPO 300W Charging Tech
Redmi in its announcement claimed that its 300W charging solution took 2 minutes and 11 seconds to reach 50 percent and under 5 minutes to charge fully. The battery capacity the brand used for the test was a 4,100mAh unit.
We can probably speculate the same turnaround time for the OPPO as well but then again this is largely dependent on the battery capacity as well.
Unlike Redmi’s 300W charging solution that could only touch 290W (not the claimed 300W) only once and that too for about 3 seconds of time, we hope OPPO’s SuperVOOC solution retains the same speed at least till the battery reaches 80 percent.
We should know more details about the new SuperVOOC solution in the days to come. Fast charging solution is not just about the speed at which the phone charges but also how efficient it is in regulating heat and also how well it can manage the current.
The current highest fast-charging solution available in India is 180W, present on the Infinix Zero Ultra.
The Realme GT 3 currently is the fastest charging commercially available phone in the world at 240W, and is expected to come to India. We doubt the 300W solution will be available in India anytime soon.
FAQ’s on Oppo 300 W Fast Charging Tech
1) What Oppo 300W fast charging tech?
Ans) Another Chinese brand, Oppo, is also working on similar tech. There are reports that Oppo has also developed equivalent technologies and that the 300W level of rapid charging has no limits in terms of brand.
A new report from @DCS a popular Weibo tech blogger reveals that the Oga system has special 2220 / 2230 mAh 15C system high-rate batteries.
The equivalent capacity should be 4600 mAh and this should be ready for 300W-level rapid charging.
Nevertheless, using a high-rate battery alone will not enable 300W high-power rapid charging. The entire link, such as chargers, mobile phones or devices, and charging designs, needs optimization and improvement.
In order to further minimize volume, the 300W charging chip design must use the most recent GaN (gallium nitride) tech. Without this, it will be difficult to control the volume of the charging head and the mobile phone.
The 300W battery capacity is still smaller than the more known 100W fast charging + 5000 mAh battery, and the battery life will be somewhat lower.
But the charging time is way shorter, therefore there are trade-offs to be made.
2) What are the details of Oppo SuperVooc Charging ?
Ans) OPPO (or its parent corporation) is already responsible for some of the fastest charging smartphones on the market. Now, the OEM is tipped to go even further with the next generation of its SuperVOOC charging, slated to pack triple-figure wattage into a battery that could fit into a wide range of mobile devices.
Realme owes its place in the “Oga Group” (a catch-all term applied to a number of smartphone brands that started out as BBK Electronics subsidiaries) for the class-leading 240W charging found in its new international flagship smartphone the GT3 (or GT Neo5 for the Chinese market). This Group also contains OPPO, a company that debuted the high-speed SuperVOOC charging accessory line in the first place.
Now, the series is tipped to get even more extreme in its next iteration. According to the reliable leaker Digital Chat Station, OPPO (or possibly the Oga Group in general) is working on a new “15C” battery designed to match Xiaomi’s new top-end 300W charging rate.

* Motorola might soon launch its Motorola Razr 40 Ultra smartphone in the global market. * The device will likely launch as the Motorola Razr+ 2023 in some regions, including China and Canada. * Both devices have been spotted on several certification websites, which confirm their monikers and some key specifications.
Motorola is reportedly in the works to launch its Motorola Razr+ 2023 smartphone. The device will soon launch in China, as it has begun its certification journey in the country.
The device was recently spotted on the Chinese CQC certification website, which revealed its battery capacity and fast charging capacity and now, the same device has been spotted on the TDRA certification and the Canadian REL certification websites, leading to some interesting developments.
Let’s take a look.
Motorola Razr 40 Ultra and Motorola Razr+ 2023 appear to be the same device with different names
As seen in the TDRA certification and the REL certification images above, both Motorola Razr+ 2023 and Motorola Razr 40 Ultra have the same model number (Motorola XT2321-3 and Motorola XT2321-1, so we can expect them to launch with different names in different regions.
This is nothing new, and has been a pretty common trend in the smartphone market for ages now.
Sadly enough, neither of the certification listings tells us anything about the specifications and features of the device(s) in question. That said, the CQC listing the Motorola Razr+ 2023 was spotted in the past (with the model number Motorola XT2321-2) confirmed that the device would feature 33W fast charging.
Plus, the device is said to feature a somewhat larger battery capacity compared to its predecessor, and will reportedly sport a 3,640mAh battery.
This is the first time that the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra moniker has popped up, and details surrounding its specifications are pretty scarce for now.
That said, the Motorola Razr+ 2023 is rumoured to launch sometime during Q2, 2023 in China, so we will automatically get to know pretty much everything about the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra anyway.
1) What is Expected and known specifications of smartphone Motorola Razr 40 ultra ?
Ans) According to the FCC certification, the upcoming Razr+ (2023) smartphone will support 33W fast charging and boast a dual-cell battery capacity of 3,640mAh.
The device will also offer connectivity features such as Wi-Fi 802.11ax, Bluetooth 5, and NFC.
Several reports have suggested that the Razr+ will be an enhanced version of last year’s Razr, with improvements in various areas.
The phone is expected to feature a 6.7-inch foldable P-OLED display with Full HD+ resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it may be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset.
The Razr+ (2023) will run on the My UX-based Android 13 operating system and include a side-facing fingerprint scanner. While other details about the device remain unknown at this time, it appears that the Razr+ will be a premium smartphone with advanced features and a focus on foldable technology.
2) What are details of Motorola Razr 40 Ultra on Chinese Certification Website?
Ans) Motorola Razr 40 Ultra on the TDRA certification website with the model number X2321-1.
This same model number has already appeared on the Chinese 3C certification website.
According to the FCC certification, there are three model numbers for the Motorola Razr 2023:
XT2321-1, XT2321-3, and XT2321-5, suggesting that Motorola is planning to launch smartphones with different names in the global market.
According to the tipster, model number XT2321-5 has been registered in Canada via REL certification with the name Motorola Razr+ 2023. The TDRA certification website now shows the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra, indicating that Motorola plans to launch this smartphone under different names in different countries.
3) How is the display of Motorola Razr 2023?
Ans) The cover display of the device Motorola Razr 2023 occupies almost the whole top rear panel, which has a dual camera setup alongside an LED flash. The exact size of the cover display is unknown at the moment, but we can expect it to be around 3.26-inch, much like the one found on the OPPO Find N2 Flip.
Moving on to the main display, strangely, the Motorola Razr 2023 does not appear to have any sort of cutout for the selfie camera, which could either mean that the device might feature an under-display front camera or might skip it entirely.
The latter is also a plausible theory, considering the fact that the outer cover display could potentially be used as a viewfinder for taking selfies, that too via the device’s main camera. This could eliminate the need for a hole in the display, thereby ensuring a more immersive viewing experience.
4) How is the design of Motorola Razr 2023?
Ans) The Motorola Razr 2023 design renders have leaked ahead of the foldable phone’s official launch. The device will have a big cover display. The leaked renders of the upcoming Motorola foldable phone were uploaded by tipster Evan Blass.
The renders show that the cover display almost occupies the whole top rear panel shell. The foldable phone’s outer display will have three cutouts at the bottom right. These are for the dual-camera setup and an LED flash.
The exact size of the cover display is unknown. However, by the looks of it, the Razr 2023 might have a cover display bigger than the OPPO Find N2 Flip, which has a 3.26-inch outer screen.
On the inside, the phone does not have any cutout for the front camera, according to the leaked design renders shared by The Tech Outlook.
It could be possible that Motorola launches the phone with an under-screen front camera or none at all. And it might make sense as the cover display itself is large enough to be used as a viewfinder for clicking selfies.
This will also help get an immersive viewing experience when using the foldable screen. The bezels around the foldable display are fairly narrow.
The frame is also curved, which should help offer comfortable grip. At the moment, no specifications of the phone have leaked online.
5) What are the details Motorola Razr+ 2023 3C, EEC Certified ?
Ans) The Motorola Razr+ 2023 will take on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 and OPPO Find N2 Flip when it is launched in China and other markets.
Ahead of the launch, the phone has been spotted on the 3C certification website. As per the listing, the phone has the model number XT-2321-2. The listing reveals that the Razr+ 2023 will offer support for 33W fast charging.
In addition to the 3C certification, the foldable phone from Motorola also visited the EEC certification website.
While the EEC listing does not confirm any details other than its model number, it does hint at an imminent launch of the phone.
The phone was recently spotted on the FCC certification website, which revealed that it will pack a dual-cell battery.
The device will have two cells in a combination of 2850mAh and 790mAh. This, in total, would be 3640mAh.
The Razr Plus 2023 will have a slightly bigger battery than the outgoing model, which came with a 3500mAh battery.
Some other details about the foldable phone have leaked in the past. The phone has a big cover display that covers almost the entire top half of the rear panel when unfolded.
The remaining half of the phone will have a magenta colour back panel. At the top of the cover screen are cutouts for the dual-camera setup with an LED flash.
In addition to this, the phone is said to sport a 6.7/ 6.8-inch foldable OLED display with a Full HD+ resolution.
The front camera will be located under the screen. Other details about the Razr Plus 2023 are unknown.

It has been a few weeks since the S23 series went on sale in India and other markets and the rumour mill has already starting churning out details about the upcoming Galaxy S24 series.
A new leak has now revealed the RAM, storage and some other details of the Samsung Galaxy S24 series.
A separate report also claims that the Galaxy S24 series will revive Samsung’s in-house Exynos SoC next year.
Let’s take a look at the Samsung Galaxy S24 series early leaks, specifications, features and other details known so far.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Series tipped to get more power under the hood
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 series is about 10 months away from launch, however, that doesn’t deter tipsters from speculating about it.
A new tweet now suggests that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 flagship series could now get improved hardware under the skin.
The tipster claims that the Samsung Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ could get more RAM in the figure of 12GB instead of the usual 8GB. The base storage option could also be boosted to 256GB.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra which will be the most expensive device out of the lineup is expected to be equipped with up to 16GB of RAM. This variant could be paired with 512GB or 1TB of internal storage. Samsung could continue to offer a 12GB RAM base variant as is the case with the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra.
A Korean report suggests that the upcoming flagship series from Samsung for 2024could also feature an Exynos 2400 chipset-based variant.
The Exynos 2400 SoC could get a 10-core CPU with one Prime X4 core, two Cortex-A720 gold cores, 3x Cortex-A720 silver cores and four Cortex-A520 efficiency cores.
However, reliable tipster Ice Universe has nullified such rumours suggesting that the chances of such are next to none.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Series: What the Early Leaks Suggest
Samsung Galaxy S24 series is months away from its rumoured launch timeline.
The Galaxy S24 series might debut in February 2024.
Almost 10 months ahead of the rumoured launch, a new leak claims that the Galaxy S24, S24 Plus and S24 Ultra will get an upgrade in the RAM and storage departments.
The Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Plus will reportedly have 12GB of RAM in their base models.
In comparison, the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23 Plus have 8GB of RAM as standard. The storage capacity of the baseline S24 and S24 Plus is also said to increase.
The tipster claims that the S24 and S24 Plus will come with 256GB of storage.
While the Galaxy S23 is available in 128GB and 256GB storage options, the S23 Plus is available in 256GB and 512GB storage options. Therefore, there is a possibility that the base model of the vanilla S24 also gets 256GB of storage.
The tipster also revealed that the Galaxy S24 Ultra will sit at the top of the lineup, will feature up to 16GB of RAM.
Samsung might launch the phone with the base model packing 12GB of RAM, which is also the case with the Galaxy S23 Ultra. The 16GB RAM variant could possibly pack 512GB or 1TB of storage.
If the leaked details are true, the Galaxy S24 Ultra will possibly be the first Samsung smartphone to offer a 16GB RAM option.
A separate report from Korea suggests that the upcoming Galaxy S24 series might feature an Exynos 2400 SoC variant. Samsung will launch a Snapdragon variant of the phone as well.
The rumoured Exynos 2400 SoC is tipped to feature a 10-core CPU with one Prime X4 core, two Cortex-A720 gold cores, 3x Cortex-A720 silver cores and four Cortex-A520 efficiency cores.
However, tipster Ice Universe, who is one of the reliable tipsters out there, says otherwise.
While some of the leaks look impressive, it is too early to say that the details are anywhere close to being legitimate.

Ans) Samsung initially used Galaxy S series with ‘Snapdragon,’ an AP produced by Exynos and Qualcomm. Samsung’s share in the global AP market has shrunk sharply, falling to 5th place with 7% in the third quarter of last year.
This is due to increased competition from products designed by competitors such as Taiwan’s MediaTek, even in entry-level models. Qualcomm took second place with 31%, followed by Apple in third place and China’s UniSOC in fourth place.
2) Is Exynos yield and heat problems leading to cost burden for Samsung?
Ans) The sluggishness of Exynos has led to a cost burden for Samsung’s mobile experience (MX) division, which produces smartphones. Mobile AP purchases last year increased by about 49.9% year-on-year to 9,313.8 billion won.
The DX division accounted for 12.8% of the total purchase amount, which was the largest, beating out camera modules and display panels. The rapid increase in usage of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon AP is causing an increased burden on mobile AP purchasers.
3) What are Samsung’s Exynos improvement and plans for future development?
Ans) Samsung Electronics has redesigned the Exynos 2200 to increase its presence in the AP market and improve yield. The Galaxy S23 FE with the Exynos 2200 is expected to release in Q4 2023. Samsung is also developing the Exynos 2400 for use in the Galaxy S24 next year.
4) What is Exynos lineup in low-end smartphones?
Ans) Samsung Electronics is expanding its Exynos lineup in both flagship and low-end smartphones, represented by the A series.
The proportion of A series sales determines the company’s smartphone performance for the year. The recently launched Exynos 1380 is evaluated as having premium AP performance despite being low-end. The lower model Exynos 1330 is also expected to be installed in the A14 series and target emerging markets such as India.
Samsung Electronics is speeding up the development of next-generation APs like Galaxy-specific chips to regain the position it lost to Qualcomm in the premium market. The company’s System LSI Division set up the ‘AP Solution Development Team’ and hired core developers from AMD and ARM to optimize AP and CPU research.
5) How has Samsung expanded Exynos brand in communication chip market?
Ans) Samsung Electronics expands the Exynos brand and aims to enter the communication chip market beyond the AP. The first product of the Exynos Connect brand, UWB-based short-range wireless communication semiconductor ‘Exynos Connect U100’, is recently launched.
It accurately measures distance and location between devices in several centimeters range, suitable for smart home and factory. The product’s optimized power mode makes it useful for IoT devices like mobile or location-aware tags that need to operate with a low-capacity battery for a long time.
