The Realme 10 Pro 5G is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 chipset.
The Realme 10 Pro Coca-Cola phone launch in India is scheduled on February 10th.
The Realme 10 Pro Coca-Cola Editionwill get these special coke-themed customisations. Chinese smartphone brand Realme is all set to unveil the Coca-Cola edition of the recently launched smartphone – Realme 10 Pro 5G in India on February 10th.
However, ahead of that, tipster Ishan Agarwal, on Twitter, has shared a video of the smartphone that reveals the look of the upcoming Realme 10 Pro 5G Coca-Cola edition.
Let us take a closer look at the design and the specifications of the Realme 10 Pro 5G Coca-Cola edition.
In the video, it can be seen that following a brief transition, the video reveals the standard version of the Realme 10 Pro 5G and its limited-edition Coca-Cola variant.
It is designed in a two-tone pattern of black and red. The black portion of the phone has dual camera rings with red accents and the Realme logo towards the bottom of the device. On the back of the phone, the right-hand side bears the Coca-Cola logo, which is set against a red background.
The Realme 10 Pro Coca-Cola edition’s design has been made public in advance of its February 10 launch in India. The Realme 10 Pro’s back panel has a matte black finish, and on the right side is clearly branded with the Coca-Cola logo, according to the official poster. To complement the design of the FMCG brand, the rims around the rear cameras also feature a Coca-Cola red finish. The silver Realme logo is clearly discernible at the lower left. In addition to physical design modifications, the smartphone might come pre-installed with a customised Coca-Cola theme. This unique edition of the Realme 10 Pro is the first time Realme and Coca-Cola have worked together. But Realme has already released a limited edition of its cellphones.

POCO X5 Pro Pros & Cons & Detailed Review
Pros
– Thin and lightweight – Lovely AMOLED screen – Stereo speakers – Decent battery life
Cons
– Protruding rear camera’s wobble is irksome – Chipset could have been better – Runs Android 12 out of the box
POCO X5 Pro Design
Design-wise, it hasn’t changed much for the new POCO X-series smartphone. The POCO X5 Pro 5G still rocks the same flat edges and a centred punch-hole display as introduced last year. Even the ports, buttons, and stereo speakers placements are unchanged.
The 3.5mm headphone jack is inconveniently placed on the top edge of the smartphone, alongside the speaker grille and an IR Blaster.
The bottom edge packs a USB Type-C port sandwiched in between the secondary speaker grille and a SIM ejector tray.
All the buttons are on the right fascia of the handset, with the power button rocking a fingerprint scanner, which unlocks the device in a jiffy. POCO X5 Pro 5G looks exactly like its predecessor.
POCO has tweaked the handset’s back panel slightly to give it a new look. The X5 Pro 5G now comes with frosty glass around the back instead of glossy which does a good job of hiding fingerprints and smudges.
There is no oversized camera bump. This has been replaced by a small rectangular module that houses triple cameras and an LED flash. The module has a shiny finish that extends all the way to the POCO branding and adds a good contrasty look to the phone.
That said, the X5 Pro’s camera juts out of the frame quite a bit and makes the device wobble while lying flat on a surface. The smartphone is nicely built.
It has a plastic unibody design that does not creak or flex when pressure is applied. The handset is also just about thin and lightweight to make it feel comfortably snug in hand. The phone comes in at 7.9mm in thickness and 181 grams.
There’s even an IP53 rating for dust and splash protection.
POCO X5 Pro Display
The POCO X5 Pro 5G also shares a few traits with the X4 Pro in the display department.
The 6.67-inch AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection, FHD+ (2,400 x 1,080p) resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and DCI-P3 wide colour gamut remain unchanged.
POCO claims the X5 Pro 5G has slimmer bezels than the previous-gen X-series offering.
The handset also has Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support available out of the box for true picture quality.
The Display can exhibit over 1 billion colours through 10-bit technology and a high 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio. All this comes to an ultra-immersive viewing experience with life-like colours and deep blacks.
The POCO smartphone is Widevine L1 certified too. The handset can stream content in FHD resolution from OTT platforms.
The viewing angles are excellent on this device as well, while the 120Hz refresh rate feels smooth across UI and supported apps. The refresh rate on the POCO X5 Pro 5G can either adjust dynamically based on the content played on the screen to reduce power consumption or stay locked in at preferred settings between 60Hz and 120Hz.
It has an excellent screen to look at both indoors and outdoors. The display is paired with Dolby Atmos-backed stereo speakers, which are loud and balanced for consuming multi-media stuff and playing games. The audio setup hardly distorts at maximum volume.
POCO X5 Pro Performance
The POCO X5 Pro 5G has Snapdragon 778G SoC ticking at its core. This is a 6nm chipset with eight Kyro 670 cores and up to 2.4GHz clock speed.
The chipset is aided by Adreno 642L GPU and 6GB/ 8GB of RAM + 3GB of virtual RAM.
As for the storage, the phone has up to 256GB UFS 2.2 ROM onboard, which is not user-expandable.
The variant should be selected carefully but the performance is great. Synthetically, the handset performed better than some of the MediaTek Dimensity 1080 SoC-powered phones in the price range.
The device delivered 5,25,085 points on AnTuTu, while its Geekbench 5’s multi-core score was 2,943.
Additionally, there was no performance throttle while running 50 threads for half an hour on the CPU Throttle test. There is some minor heating on a 12-layered graphite coolingphone. But the device was pushed to its limit, and some thermal issues couldn’t be avoided.
The two-year-old chipset coolly handled everything thrown at it. Free Fire Max at ‘Ultra’ graphics and ‘Normal’ resolution ran smoothly on the smartphone, while multi-tasking, with a dozen Chrome tabs open and a bunch of apps running in the background, worked like a charm.
My only qualm with the POCO X5 Pro is that it doesn’t pack the latest mid-range Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC from Qualcomm.
The SoC is more power and battery-efficient than the Snapdragon 778G chipset. Let’s look at the POCO X5 Pro’s battery life.
POCO X5 Pro Battery
The POCO X5 Pro packs a 5,000mAh battery, which is the same as last year; however, its PC Mark 3.0 battery benchmark test score was significantly lower. The handset could only return a score of 12 hours and 15 minutes.
POCO X4 Pro scored 16 hours and 57 minutes on the same test. The handset lasts close to a day between charges, with usage involving going through emails, checking Slack, streaming an episode or two of a web series, playing games, and browsing.
There is no need to plug the phone in for charging before going to bed. Good thing though the X5 Pro is backed by a 67W fast charging solution, which takes around 45 minutes for a full charge from nothing.
POCO X5 Pro Camera
In terms of optics, the POCO X5 Pro 5G packs triple rear cameras, which comprise a 108MP Samsung ISOCELL HM2 primary sensor paired with an 8MP ultra-wide lens and a 2MP macro sensor, while the front camera is a 16MP shooter.
The 108MP sensor captures images in 12MP resolution by default. The results looked good in sunny and bright environments.
The images captured had ample detail, and there was hardly any issue with the sensor’s shutter speed and focus.
HDR on POCO X5 Pro over-saturates the colours slightly. It does make the images more likeable and social media-ready, which is what most people want, but not ‘photophiles’.
The latter group might not like the handset’s extra processing, where RGBs are enhanced to make the images look more vibrant and peppy.
Moreover, the 108MP sensor creates a shallow depth of field, which blurs the background, if you get close to the object. The lowlight photography of the sensor was not quite as good as I expected, but the results were usable.
The night mode does a nice job of brightening the image while keeping the noise level down and preserving the key details.
The X5 Pro 5G uses a typical 8MP ultra-wide lens for landscape shots found in other budget and mid-range smartphones.
The lens offers a wider 120-degree field of view (FOV) than the primary camera. However, due to its small sensor size, the images appeared gloomy, owing to the low dynamic range and contrast ratio, even in daylight. The colours also seemed muted.
In low light, the sensor performed average at best. Besides this, the phone uses a 2MP macro shooter, which does a decent job of taking pictures of subjects up close. This is true as long as there is enough light source and frame stability.
The X5 Pro doesn’t ship with a dedicated depth sensor, but there is a software-based portrait mode that offers impressive results with the 108MP primary camera. The edge detection and background blur both worked like a charm.
The front-facing 16MP sensor of the phone captured selfies with good facial detailing and accurate skin tones when the sun was out. However, the portrait mode of the sensor was hit-and-miss as it had some trouble with edge detection.
POCO X5 Pro Software, Network & Connectivity
Software-wise, the POCO X5 Pro has the latest custom skin MIUI 14 running atop the slightly dated Android 12 OS out of the box. Much like the previous MIUI build, the new custom Android skin is also bereft of advertisements.
The phone has a few pre-installed apps, but they can be uninstalled. MIUI 14 features are missing on the POCO X5 Pro, while the animation and UI look pretty much the same as the 13. This could be due to Android 12.
Once Android 13 is rolled out, the device may get all the features of MIUI 14.
POCO promises two years of major software and three years of security updates for the X5 Pro smartphone.
The 5G-enabled smartphone supports as many as seven bands in India and is compatible with both Airtel 5G and Jio 5G networks.
Ans) POCO X5 Pro price in India is Rs 22,999 for the6GB + 128GB and Rs 24,999 for the 8GB +256GB version.

Ans) The POCO X5 Pro 5G does not come cheap, and the handset is the most-expensive X-series smartphone in India yet. But this shouldn’t come as a surprise to you as prices of the handsets across segments have been increasing lately. The X5 Pro 5G competes against the Realme 10 Pro Plus (review), with which it has a lot in common.
However, the Realme smartphone runs Android 13 out of the box, which isn’t the case with the POCO phone. The X5 Pro also lags behind in the camera department, which has a 108MP HM2 primary sensor instead of the latest 108MP HM6 sensor.
POCO X5 Pro does a better job than its counterpart in the performance and display departments. The handset also has a good audio setup to go with that beautiful screen. What’s more, the smartphone is more affordable than the Realme 10 Pro Plus. These things make the POCO X5 Pro 5G smartphone a good buy for its price, at least for now. The handset is selling in India at Rs 22,999 for the 6GB RAM variant, while the 8GB RAM option is priced at Rs 24,999.

* Vivo X90 Pro Plus still remains a China-exclusive device for the time being.
* The Vivo X90 pricing starts at MYR 3,699 (approx. Rs 70,000).
Vivo X90 and Vivo X90 Pro have launched globally after being unveiled in China back in November 2022. While the lineup also consisted of the Vivo X90 Pro Plus, this particular handset is currently exclusive to China, for now.
The X90 Pro is far from the first smartphone to ship with a 1-inch-type sensor, nor is it the first to use this specific component from Sony.
But while we saw Xiaomi announce both Xiaomi 12S Ultra and Xiaomi 13 Pro using Sony’s IMX989 sensor last year, neither of them have been released internationally (yet).
That makes today’s Vivo launch more significant for international buyers. Coming back to the Vivo X90 and X90 Pro, these smartphones pack in high-grade cameras, flagship chipsets, and ultra-fast charging capabilities.
Furthermore, both these devices will gradually launch in several European and Asian markets including India.
Vivo did not reveal any details about the pricing of these phones. We only know the vivo X90 will be available in Black and Blue in Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Thailand, and Malaysia.
The vivo X90 Pro will be sold only in Legendary Black, which has a leather-like finish on the back. The available markets are: Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Thailand, Malaysia in Asia, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, Czechia, Austria, Romania, Croatia, Slovenia, Greece, and Serbia.
Key specifications of the Vivo X90 and X90 Pro include a large AMOLED display, the MediaTek Dimensity 9200, 50MP primary cameras tuned in collaboration with Zeiss, a dedicated V2 chip for enhanced photography and gaming, and up to 120W fast charging support.
Vivo X90, Vivo X90 Pro prices, availability
The Vivo X90 and Vivo X90 Pro have been officially launched in Malaysia today in a single storage configuration of 12GB RAM and 256GB ROM each. The vanilla X90 is priced at MYR 3,699 (approx. Rs 70,000) while the X90 Pro costs MYR 4,999 (approx. 95,000).
As for the colour options, the standard X90 comes in Breeze Blue and Asteroid Black, and the X90 Pro in a single Legend Black vegan leather option.3 Early buyers of the devices can grab a free Vivo TWS Air along with a Protection Plus plan that includes 1 year of extended phone warranty, 1 year of screen crack protection, and 1 year of battery warranty.
Indian pricing of the Vivo X90 and X90 Pro will be revealed at a later date when the handsets are officially unveiled in the country.

Ans)The cost will be between Rs 69,221 and Rs 99,162.
Q3) How is the Vivo X90 and X90 Pro camera?
Ans)The Vivo X90 will have three cameras placed up at the back. A 12MP ultrawide lens and a 12MP portrait sensor will be used in addition to the 50MP core sensor. The Vivo X90 Pro, on the other hand, has a 50 MP main camera, a 50MP telephoto lens and a 12MP ultrawide sensor.
Q4) How is the Vivo X90 Pro battery?
The X90 Pro has a 4,780-mAh battery, which can be replenished with a bundled 120-watt charger or a 50-watt wireless charger (sold separetly). The phone offers two charging modes, fast charging and balanced mode. Vivo says the X90 Pro can be charged to 50% in 8 minutes and 10 seconds using the former mode. Balanced mode is apparently ideal for everyday charging, and takes 29 minutes to revitalize the battery to a full charge, according to Vivo.
Q5) What is the X90 Pro’s odd design choice on the back?
For a phone in 2023, the X90 Pro’s design appears relatively ordinary from the front. The rectangular display has curved edges and features a a punch-hole cutout in the center housing the selfie camera. But flip it over, and you’ll see a narrow bar running through the width of the chassis (below the camera module).
No, it’s not a camera bar as seen on Google’s Pixel 7 lineup, it’s simply a flat bar emblazoned with the words “Xtreme Imagination” running across the rear of the phone.
Frankly, it makes for a bizarre choice that undermines the overall design of an otherwise sleek phone. Above this perplexing bar, is the circular camera bump housing three lenses. There’s also bold vivo branding at the bottom.
Q6) What is the X90 Pro’s Zeiss lenses?
Ans)Vivo says this phone gives you a piece of pro photography equipment in your pocket. That’s why it makes sense that the company has flexed its camera partnership with Zeiss, a 176-year old company considered a pioneer in optical photography. There are three cameras on the X90 Pro: a 50-megapixel main camera, a 50-megapixel portrait camera and a 12-megapixel wide-angle lens.
Q7) What are the New Vivo X90 Pro features?
Ans)Vivo changed an array of features from the phone’s predecessor, the V80 Pro. Apart from swapping out the chip from Qualcomm to a Mediatek one, it ditched the ultrasonic fingerprint reader, telephoto camera and reduced display resolution. The 3D Sonic Max feature was one that set the X80 Pro apart from a number of Android flagships, so it’s disappointing to see it go.

Galaxy S23 Series Smartphones Sold in India will be manufactured at Samsung’s Noida Factory
Samsung has announced that all flagship GalaxyS23 series devices that will be sold in India would be manufacturedlocally at the company’s Noida facility.
The Korean electronics company currently manufactures the Galaxy S series flagship smartphones at its Vietnam facility and imports them for sale in India.
The latest flagships have been designed with the planet in mind. It is made using more recycled materials than the Galaxy S22 series, including pre-consumer recycled aluminium and recycled glass, and post-consumer recycled plastics sourced from discarded fishing nets, water barrels and Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) bottles.
Galaxy S23 series comes with Samsung Knox protection, which has received more government and industry certifications than any other mobile device, platform, or solution on the market.
For an added layer of security, Knox Vault, which was first introduced on the Galaxy S21 series, protects critical information on the Galaxy S23 series by isolating it from the rest of the device, including the OS, for added protection against vulnerabilities.
Notably, Apple also manufactures the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus in India.
The Samsung Galaxy S23 series was recently launched at the company’s Unpacked event and is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, which gets up to 1TB of internal storage, 45W fast charging support and a new 200MP main camera sensor.
Samsung inaugurated the World’s LargestMobile Factory in Noida in 2018, with the vision to make India a global manufacturing hub. This factory was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Samsung also set up the World’s Largest Mobile Experience Centre at the iconic Opera House in Bengaluru, further strengthening its commitment to India.
The newly launched Galaxy S23 series – Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 – are the new standard-bearers of a trustworthy premium smartphone experience, merging power and lasting innovation in devices that have less environmental impact.
Galaxy S23 series smartphones come with “Snapdragon® 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform for Galaxy” to deliver a premium experience, including groundbreaking AI, future-ready mobile gaming experience and powerfully sustained game play with the world’s fastest mobile graphics.

The announcement comes on the lines of the announcement of the Union Budget 2023-24, wherein import duties on mobile phone camera lenses have been reduced, positively affecting manufacturing in India.
While Samsung has been manufacturing its phones in India since 2007, the recent developments have come courtesy of the company’s drive to commit to India’s ‘Make in India’ policies. The Samsung Galaxy S23 flagship series of smartphones will be manufactured at the company’s Noida facility in the state of Uttar Pradesh.
The massive facility was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi back in 2018 and its the world’s largest mobile phone manufacturing facility. This facility is working in full swing and already caters to the domestic demand for Samsung phones.
The drive to manufacture high-end electronic devices in India has been adopted by many other companies and companies such as Apple have started manufacturing iPhones in India in a bid shift focus from its manufacturing facilities in China. Apple manufactures iPhone 12 series onwards in India, barring the Pro models.
