Vivo V80 vs Vivo V70

Highlights

• OPPO F35 Pro costs ₹7,000 more than the F35, offering a larger 6.78″ 1.5K AMOLED 144Hz display versus the F35’s 6.57″ FHD+ 120Hz panel.
• The Pro model upgrades to a Dimensity 7360 MAX chipset (4nm, higher CPU/GPU performance) and adds a 50MP OIS + 8MP ultrawide rear camera, while the F35 has a 50MP + 2MP setup.
• Storage tops out at 128GB on the F35, but the Pro offers up to 256GB; both share the same 8,000mAh battery, 80W charging, and 50MP ultra-wide selfie camera.

OPPO has recently launched the OPPO F35 and OPPO F35 Pro in India as the latest additions to its F-series lineup. While both phones share an 8,000mAh battery, 80W charging and a 50MP ultra-wide selfie camera, the F35 Pro brings a larger 144Hz 1.5K AMOLED display, a more powerful Dimensity 7360 MAX chipset and a more advanced rear camera setup.

But what exactly do you get by spending Rs 7,000 more on the OPPO F35 Pro?

OPPO F35 vs OPPO F35 Pro Price in India

The OPPO F35 starts at Rs 38,999, while the OPPO F35 Pro starts at Rs 45,999. The Pro model also gets a higher 8GB + 256GB variant priced at Rs 54,999.

Starting price difference: Rs 7,000

So, the key question is whether the F35 Pro’s display, processor and camera upgrades are worth paying extra for.

OPPO F35 vs OPPO F35 Pro: 5 Biggest Differences at a Glance

Difference 1: Display – 120Hz vs 144Hz

The display is one of the biggest differences between the two phones.

The OPPO F35 has a 6.57-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1.07 billion colours and a 1.67mm narrow bezel.

The OPPO F35 Pro, meanwhile, gets a larger 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a faster 144Hz refresh rate. It also has 450ppi pixel density and can reach up to 3,600 nits peak brightness, according to OPPO.

In simple terms, the F35 Pro gives you a larger, sharper and smoother display.

Difference 2: Processor – Dimensity 6360 MAX vs 7360 MAX

The OPPO F35 uses the MediaTek Dimensity 6360 MAX, while the F35 Pro gets the higher-tier Dimensity 7360 MAX.

The F35 Pro’s chipset is built on a 4nm process. OPPO claims that it delivers 30% higher multi-core CPU performance and 35% higher GPU performance compared with the previous generation in its own testing. Both phones support 5G, but the F35 Pro is clearly positioned as the more powerful option.

The key differences are:

• F35: Dimensity 6360 MAX
• F35 Pro: Dimensity 7360 MAX
• F35 Pro uses a 4nm process
• Both phones support 5G

If performance is a priority, the F35 Pro is the better choice.

Difference 3: Rear Cameras – 50MP + 2MP vs 50MP OIS + 8MP

The rear camera setup is another important upgrade on the Pro model. The OPPO F35 has a 50MP main camera and a 2MP portrait camera. The F35 Pro gets a 50MP main camera with OIS and an 8MP ultrawide camera.

This gives the Pro model a more versatile camera setup. OIS should also help with keeping shots steadier, particularly when shooting in situations where camera shake is more noticeable.

What about the selfie camera?

There is less difference here. Both phones feature a 50MP ultra-wide selfie camera with a 100-degree field of view. OPPO positions both models around this feature under its “Group Selfie Expert” branding.

So, while the rear cameras are a major Pro upgrade, the headline selfie camera remains the same.

Difference 4: RAM and Storage

The OPPO F35 is available in two configurations, while the F35 Pro gets three.

The biggest difference is that the F35 Pro offers up to 256GB of storage, while the F35 tops out at 128GB. If you store a lot of photos, videos, apps and other files on your phone, the 256GB Pro variant could be worth considering.

Difference 5: Design and Durability

The two phones also have different design approaches. The OPPO F35 is available in Wave Blue, Titanium Grey and Mist Pink. It has a slim vertical camera module that resembles the design seen on some recent Vivo S-series phones. The F35 Pro comes in Sunrise Orange, Twilight Brown and Wave Blue. It has a larger camera module and takes heavy inspiration from the current iPhone-style rear camera design.

The Pro model also gets OPPO’s “Damage-Proof 360° Armour Body” positioning.

Both phones have IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings, giving them strong water and dust resistance. The F35 also specifically gets IP69K water and dust resistance positioning. Phones also support Rainstorm Touch, which is designed to make the touchscreen more usable when the display is exposed to water.

OPPO F35 vs F35 Pro Battery and Charging

This is one area where there is no major difference. Both the OPPO F35 and F35 Pro pack an 8,000mAh battery and support 80W SUPERVOOC charging. OPPO officially lists the 8,000mAh battery capacity for both models. So, unlike the display, processor and rear cameras, you don’t have to pay extra for a bigger battery with the Pro.

• F35: 8,000mAh + 80W SUPERVOOC
• F35 Pro: 8,000mAh + 80W SUPERVOOC

• OnePlus Ace 7 Pro leak suggests a 1.5K LTPS OLED display with an ultra‑fast 185Hz refresh rate.
• The phone will likely use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 paired with up to 16GB RAM, 1TB storage, and a built‑in active cooling fan.
• It is also expected to feature a 200MP + 50MP rear camera setup and 16MP front camera; battery details remain unconfirmed, launch timeline and pricing are not yet official.

OnePlus appears to be working on a new Ace Series smartphone that could bring some hardware upgrades. A new leak has now revealed key specifications of the OnePlus Ace 7 Pro including a 185Hz display, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset and a built-in active cooling fan. Here is everything the latest leak suggests about the upcoming OnePlus smartphone.

OnePlus Ace 7 Pro Could Get a 185Hz Display

The OnePlus Ace 7 Pro is reportedly being tested with a 1.5K LTPS OLED display featuring a 185Hz refresh rate. The combination of OLED technology and high resolution could make the screen suitable for both everyday use and gaming.

The 185Hz refresh rate is particularly interesting for gamers as higher refresh rate allows the display to show more frames per second, which can make supported games feel smoother and more responsive. It could be especially useful for fast-paced titles where quick movements and reactions matter.

Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Could Power the OnePlus Ace 7 Pro

According to the leak, the OnePlus Ace 7 Pro could be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. This is expected to be a flagship-level processor, making it a natural fit for a phone aimed at demanding performance and gaming.

The chipset could also be paired with the reported active cooling system. This combination suggests that OnePlus may be focusing on maintaining performance during longer gaming sessions rather than simply offering high peak performance.

The leak also claims that the phone could be available with up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage, although these configurations have not been confirmed.

OnePlus Ace 7 Pro May Have a Built-in Cooling Fan

Another feature mentioned in the leak is a built-in active cooling fan. If this feature makes it to the final product, it could further reinforce the Ace 7 Pro’s gaming and performance-focused positioning. An active fan could help dissipate heat more aggressively during demanding workloads such as extended gaming sessions.

OnePlus Ace 7 Pro Camera Details

The leak points to a 200MP primary rear camera paired with a 50MP secondary camera. Details about the secondary sensor and its purpose are not available yet. For selfies and video calls, the phone is reportedly expected to feature a 16MP front camera.

While the 200MP sensor is one of the headline specifications in the leak, actual camera performance will depend on factors such as sensor size, image processing and software tuning.

OnePlus Ace 7 Pro Battery and Charging

There is currently no confirmed battery or charging information for the OnePlus Ace 7 Pro. The latest leak only mentions a large battery without revealing its capacity or charging speed.

OnePlus Ace 7 Pro Expected Price and India Launch

OnePlus has not officially announced the launch date of the Ace 7 Pro. The phone is reportedly part of the Ace 7 series, but there is currently no confirmed information about when OnePlus could introduce it.

For now, the OnePlus Ace 7 Pro price in India also remains unknown. All leaked specifications, pricing expectations and launch details should be treated as unconfirmed until OnePlus makes an official announcement.

Realme P4s Lite 4G Full Specifications

Highlights

• Xiaomi 18 Ultra project reportedly cancelled due to the high proposed price of ¥9,999 for 12GB + 256GB, raising concerns over sales sustainability.
• It was reportedly planned with three 200MP cameras (main, ultra-wide, periscope) with continuous optical zoom, a magnetic external lens, a multispectral sensor and Snapdragon flagship chip.
• Previous leaks have revealed a 1mm narrow-bezel flat display, symmetrical dual speakers and benchmark scores above 5 million.

Xiaomi’s reportedly cancelled 18 Ultra could have been one of the company’s most ambitious camera smartphones yet. A new leak from tipster Digital Chat Station (DCS) reveals the planned camera setup, which reportedly included three 200MP cameras, continuous optical zoom, a multispectral sensor and a magnetic external lens.

The tipster also claims that Xiaomi had considered a 12GB RAM + 256GB storage version priced at ¥9,999. However, the project was reportedly cancelled internally because of concerns that the high price could make sales difficult to sustain.

Xiaomi 18 Ultra Project Was Reportedly Cancelled

According to Digital Chat Station, Xiaomi has already cancelled the 18 Ultra project. The reason reportedly came down to its proposed price, with internal concerns that the phone would be too expensive and that sales would not be sustainable at that level.

The tipster says Xiaomi had considered a 12GB + 256GB configuration at ¥9,999. It is important to note that the Xiaomi 18 Ultra was a planned/prototype device and not an officially announced retail smartphone. Xiaomi has not confirmed the cancellation.

If the report is accurate, the cancellation means the company may have decided that the ambitious hardware planned for the phone would have pushed its price beyond a commercially viable level.

Xiaomi 18 Ultra has been cancelled, and its specs just leaked 👀

As per Digital Chat Station, Xiaomi planned a crazy camera phone but killed it because the price would have been too high.

– Three 200MP cameras
– 1/1.12 inch LOFIC main camera, a new sensor tech that keeps bright skies and lights from getting blown out
– 1/1.28 inch periscope with continuous optical zoom, up from 1/1.4 inch on the 17 Ultra
– Flat display with 1mm bezels on all four sides
– Benchmark score above 5 million

So this time there is no Ultra. Xiaomi 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max already launched in China last month, and the standard Xiaomi 18 is expected in December. Ultra is expected to return with Xiaomi 19 Ultra.

Xiaomi 18 Ultra Was Planned With Three 200MP Cameras

The camera setup appears to have been the biggest highlight of the planned Xiaomi 18 Ultra. The leaked configuration reportedly included three 200MP cameras, with large sensors across the main, ultra-wide and periscope cameras.

Xiaomi 18 Ultra Camera Setup

• 200MP Main Camera with 1/1.12-inch sensor and LOFIC technology
• 200MP Ultra-Wide Camera with 1/1.56-inch sensor
• 200MP Periscope Camera with 1/1.28-inch sensor and LOFIC technology

This would have made the Xiaomi 18 Ultra an unusually camera-focused flagship, particularly because all three major rear cameras were reportedly planned around 200MP sensors.

200MP Periscope With Continuous Optical Zoom

The planned telephoto camera was reportedly even more ambitious. Xiaomi was said to be working on a 200MP periscope camera with a 1/1.28-inch sensor and LOFIC technology.

The camera was also tipped to support continuous optical zoom. Unlike conventional fixed optical zoom systems that offer specific zoom levels, continuous optical zoom would allow the lens to move through a range of optical focal lengths.

Magnetic External Lens Was Also Planned

The Xiaomi 18 Ultra’s camera system reportedly had another unusual feature: a magnetic external lens.

The DCS post also mentions a multispectral lens and a 0916 motor as part of the planned hardware. Together, these features suggest Xiaomi was exploring a much more extensive photography system for the Ultra model.

Xiaomi 18 Ultra Could Have Cost ¥9,999

The reported pricing was another major part of the Xiaomi 18 Ultra leak.

For comparison, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra started at ¥6,999 in China. That means the proposed starting configuration of the 18 Ultra would have been significantly more expensive.

A separate report had also suggested that the planned Xiaomi 18 Ultra could cross the ¥10,000 mark. However, Digital Chat Station’s latest information specifically mentions ¥9,999 for the 12GB + 256GB version.

This unusually high proposed price also fits with the claim that cost and sales concerns played a role in the reported cancellation.

1mm-Level Four-Sided Narrow-Bezel Display

The camera hardware was not the only ambitious part of the planned device. The Xiaomi 18 Ultra was reportedly designed with a four-sided flat display featuring around 1mm bezels.

The narrow bezels would have given the phone a more immersive flagship appearance while keeping the screen flat rather than curved.

Snapdragon Flagship Chip With 5 Million+ Benchmark Score

The Xiaomi 18 Ultra was also expected to use a Snapdragon flagship chipset. Digital Chat Station reportedly mentioned a benchmark score of more than 5 million points.

While the leaked information highlights the performance level, the specific Snapdragon chipset for the cancelled device has not been confirmed in the supplied details.

Symmetrical Dual Speakers and Other Features

The planned Xiaomi 18 Ultra was also said to feature symmetrical dual speakers.

Other hardware mentioned in the leak includes the 0916 motor, multispectral lens and magnetic external lens. These additions further indicate that Xiaomi was exploring a high-end photography-focused device with more specialised camera hardware than a typical flagship.

Xiaomi 18 Ultra vs Xiaomi 17 Ultra

The leaked Xiaomi 18 Ultra would have represented a major change in Xiaomi’s Ultra camera strategy if it had reached the market.

The biggest reported difference is clearly the proposed camera hardware. The 18 Ultra was tipped to feature three 200MP cameras and continuous optical zoom, while its proposed ¥9,999 price would have placed it well above the 17 Ultra’s starting price.

Xiaomi 18 Ultra Full Leaked Specifications

Since the Xiaomi 18 Ultra was reportedly cancelled before becoming an official retail product, the following specifications should be treated as leaked or planned specifications, rather than confirmed final specifications.

If the leak is accurate, the Xiaomi 18 Ultra could have been an extremely ambitious camera flagship. However, since the phone was reportedly cancelled before an official launch, these specifications and the proposed pricing should be treated as leaked plans rather than final product specifications.
