The smartphone doesn’t have a strong IP Rating, has bloatware, an underwhelming display, and a 4500mAh battery.

The battery lasts an entire day with moderate usage but drains out faster when long gaming sessions or content consumption sessions are done on the device.

The battery could have been bumped up to 5000mAh for sure, which is pretty standard nowadays.

7) How is the camera of Vivo Y100?

Ans) Vivo Y100 packs a 4500mAh battery under the hood. The battery lasts an entire day with moderate usage but drains out faster when long gaming sessions or content consumption sessions are done on the device. It comes with 44W Flash fast charging that charges the device from 0 to 100% in just under an hour which is good. The battery could have been bumped up to 5000mAh for sure, which is pretty standard nowadays.
The camera also comes with features like panorama, live photo, slow-mo, time-lapse, pro, double exposure, and dual view.

8) How is the performance of Vivo Y100?

Ans) Vivo Y100 is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 900 chipset that is fast as well as efficient. The 6nm chipset allows a multitude of apps to open and load quickly and there are no lags when switching between different running apps. There is 8GB RAM and it did its part well as even 15-20 apps ran in the background smoothly without any slowing down or crashing.

The smartphone runs FunTouch OS 13 based on Android 13 and although the UI is user-friendly, colorful, and good-looking, there’s loads of pre-installed bloatware. Apps like Moj, Snapchat, Dailyhunt, Byjus, share chat, Josh, and Netflix are already loaded and you will have to remove those which you don’t want. For a device that costs above 20,000, bloatware should have been minimized.

Connectivity options include Bluetooth 5.2, WiFi, GPS, OTG, USB Type-C, and more, and the device is 5G capable. This is where it will earn more brownie points as many might prefer spending 25k on a 5G smartphone. It comes with a good quality speaker that supports Hi-Res audio and Dolby Atmos and the calling experience is decent as well.

9) What are Vivo Y100, Y100A New Prices, and Bank Offers?

Ans) Vivo had priced the base variant of both Vivo Y100 and Y100A at Rs 24,999.

TikTok CEO comments India banning TikTok is ‘hypothetical’ during the US Congress hearing

0
TikTok app

The robustly growing privacy and security concerns around TikTok, has drawn Shou Chew, chief executive officer of TikTok Inc. under some questions in the House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing session in Washington, DC, US, on Thursday.

Introduction

TikTok stops working for users in India after govt bans the app | Tech News

TikTok has been banned in India, as this Chinese app, just like other Chinese apps, was erupting in the case of security breaches.

While cutting this notion recently, On Thursday against the House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing session in Washington, DC, US, Shou Chew, chief executive officer of TikTok Inc.said that ban on TikTok by India was nothing but ‘hypothetical’.

TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew, while justifying the increasing privacy aspect and the potential role of the Chinese government impacting the company’s lookout before the US Congress. Amid the four hour long hearing the important questions were answered with well explanations.

Let’s briefly address the hearing and point to note here. This hearing basically revolved around the company’s stance on national security concerns from the US and the “real action” taken by the social media giant to correct some recurring concerns.

TikTok app and security it offers!

The chinese app, owned by Bytedance, a Chinese technology company concerning the new users with the security issues. For which, Shou Zi Chew numerous times focused on the social media giant has maintained the privacy of the data for prolonged periods and is not risk ridden to share the data  with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) of its 150 million U.S. users.

US Lawmaker Debbie Lesko asked on the ban of TikTok in India and other countries “This (TikTok) is a tool which is ultimately under the control of the Chinese government and screams out with national security concerns Mr Chew, how can all of these countries and our FBI director be wrong?”

For the response Chew stated  “I think a lot of risks pointed out are hypothetical and theoretical risks. I have not seen any evidence,”

Debbie Lesko, again questioned, this time focusing on the ban on TikTok in India alongwith informing her colleagues “India banned TikTok in 2020. In March 21, a Forbes article revealed how data of Indian citizens who used TikTok remained accessible to employees at the company and its Beijing-based parent.

A current TikTok employee told Forbes that nearly anyone with basic access to company tools can easily look up the closest contact and other sensitive information about any user,”

In response to this Chew states that “This is a recent article; I have asked my team to look into it. We have rigorous data access protocols. There is no such thing that anybody can access the tools. So, I disagree with a lot of the conclusions,”

Debunking the statement by chew on improved security and providing privacy Lawmaker Kat Cammack of Florida told Chew that “You damn well know that you cannot protect the data and security of this committee or the 150 million users of your app because it is an extension of the CCP,” indicating it by playing a threatening video still making round on the platform for more than the month after being posted, crossing the community guidelines.

Republican representative Cathy McMorris-Rodgers, asked the CEO of TikTok during the hearing that the company was not successful to provide “100 percent guarantee” on Beijing not having an influential part in the app.

TikTok can threaten America's safety, national security: White House

Chew responded in defence for the laid acquisition by assuring the company firewalling U.S. user data from “all unwanted foreign access”. Moreover, will be committed to keep the content  “free from any manipulation from any government.”

The hearing went ahead with lawmaker from New Jersey putting his concern forward with not sure with the security plans of TikTok by stating  “I still believe that the Beijing communist government will still control and have the ability to influence what you do,” also added that Tiktok “a benign company that’s just performing a public service … I don’t buy it.”

Before starting the hearing, China committed not to farcesale TikTok. Additionally, China’s Commerce Ministry stated that approval of the Chinese government will be required before accepting any sale demanding the export of Chinese technology.

India banned TikTok

India Bans TikTok and 58 Other Chinese Apps from Their Domestic Market

Even after giving time to companies to remedy the concerns of privacy security, India made the ban permanent worldwide  in January 2021.

TikTok And the US!

TikTok's potential ban in U.S. could be boon for Meta and Snap

In the US too, not convinced with the privacy and security degree TikTok can provide. The country has already laid the embargo on TikTok across federal government devices, such as  military devices. Besides this, a number of states in the US are applying the banning policy on state government devices as well.

Infinix Hot 30i comes in a stylish look and feel. The back looks very eye-catchy and the boxy design reacts to the light, making it appear shiny at times and matt otherwise. The good thing is that smartphone’s body finish doesn’t attract any fingerprints or smudges.

Dual camera setup on the back with flash and at the bottom we see all the ports. There’s a headphone jack, a USB-C port and a single speaker.

The smartphone is quite slim with flat size and it provides a really good grip in your hand. There’s a side capacity fingerprint scanner that also works as a standby button. It’s pretty fast responsive and works really well.

Infinix Hot 30i Display

Infinix Hot 30i

As you open the box of the Infinix Hot 30i, you’ll be greeted with a sleek and stylish smartphone. The first thing you’ll notice is the large 6.6 inches IPS LCD display that offers immersive visuals with its 720 x 1612 pixels resolution and 267ppi pixel density.

The colour reporter action is pretty good, vibrant and crisp. The display comes with 500 nits of peak brightness, which might not sound a lot on the specification sheet but we briefly used it outdoors and it was very much visible.

You can spot the teardrop notch on the top, which houses the 5-megapixel front camera. The 90 Hertz refresh rate is a breeze and makes everyday scrolling and general navigating a lot more smoother.

We streamed some content on Hot 30i to test the display performance and were quite impressed with what the smartphone has to offer. It was quite clear and fun to watch while the display goes edge to edge.

It has the White Wine L3 Certification and so streaming apps such as Netflix and Prime Videos will stream at 540p. Again, this might not mean anything much on paper, but it’s good enough for a phone in this price range.

As for YouTube, it will stream up to full HD without any problem.

Infinix Hot 30i Performance

Infinix Hot 30i

Infinix Hot 30i comes with the MediaTek Helio G37 chipset. Now there’s nothing to rave about it as this is a pretty basic hardware and can handle day-to-day tasks really well.

The good thing is that Infinix has equipped this smartphone with a massive 8GB LP DDR4X RAM with additional support to expand it further by 8GB, giving it a total of 16 GB RAM. This is great for multitasking and the best part is it keeps most of your often-used apps still in memory.

We also get 128 GB internal storage, which is EMMC storage and it’s good enough to save tons of media files without any issues.

Infinix Hot 30i runs on Android 12 out of the box and comes with xos UI. It’s nice with boxy icons and overall quite smooth in general operation.

We do, however, see some bloatware apps such as v-sharp player and x-club. And the downside is that we can’t delete these unwanted apps, which is a little disappointing.

Although you can game on this phone we would strictly recommend you stick to basic gaming such as Candy Crush or Temple Run. Any high graphic games are clear no for Infinix Hot 30i.

Overall, if you want a smartphone for WhatsApp, for social media apps, for emails and light gaming, then the performance of Infinix Hot 30i is more than adequate in every aspect.

Infinix Hot 30i Camera

Infinix Hot 30i

As for the camera, it is definitely very impressive for a budget smartphone. We tried to take some pictures using the 50-megapixel dual AI rear sensor and had nothing to complain about the results. Some of this camera’s basic settings are HDR Mode, Digital Zoom, Continuous Shooting Mode, Face Detection and Touch to Focus.

We got good colour reproduction and there were details in the shadow that was clearly visible. Also, the camera offers an impressive dynamic range while the picture clarity is genuinely good.

You can record full high-definition videos of up to 30 FPS using the rear sensors.

The front 5-megapixel camera gives selfies that are clear and crisp. In fact, you can even use AR feature to make your selfies even more fun. The front camera too can record at full high definition 30 FPS, which is really good for a smartphone of this price range.

Infinix Hot 30i Battery

Infinix Hot 30i

Battery backup is where Infinix Hot 30i scores well and compensates for any other minor shortcomings that one might have noticed to complain about. This smartphone comes with a massive 5000mAh battery, which easily lasts one and a half to two days with media use.

Another positive is that see we get a USB-C port on this budget phone and that’s great considering there are many smartphones still getting launched with micro USB ports. It’s great that Infinix has chosen USB-C.

It is accompanied by an 18-watt charger that should not take more than two to three hours to fully charge from 0 to 100 per cent.

Infinix Hot 30i Price and Availability

Infinix Hot 30i

Infinix Hot 30i price in India starts from Rs. 8,999. Available at various offline and online stores, however, the lowest price of Infinix Hot 30i at Rs. 8,999 can be grabbed at Flipkart.
This smartphone comes in only one base variant with 8 GB RAM (expandable up to 16GB) and 128 GB internal storage specifications.

Moreover, Infinix Hot 30i is available in Mirror Black, Glacier Blue, Diamond White, and Marigold colour variants.

Verdict

Infinix Hot 30i

Overall, the Infinix Hot 30i is a real value-for-money smartphone. Rs 8,999 for an 8 GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage variant could be the only reason to pick this up. But you also get a 90Hertz refresh rate and an impressive 50-megapixel camera on top of that.
The 5000mAh battery with an 18-watt charger provides perfect support to ensure a perfect everyday smartphone experience.

If you are still confused, here are some reasons why you should be considering Infinix Hot 30i for your next smartphone purchase.

Wings Phantom 380 Review

Highlights

  • Wings Lifestyle launched Wings Phantom 380 TWS earbuds in India recently.
  • Wings Phantom 380 earbuds feature 13mm drivers, ANC and ENC support and offer up to 50 hours of playback time.
  • The Phantom 380 earbuds come at a special launch price of Rs 1,299 and come in two colour options – Black and White. The earbuds can be purchased on Flipkart, Amazon, and Wings’ official website.
  • In this blog, we are looking closely at the product and sharing our in-depth hands-on Wings Phantom 380 review.

The True Wireless Stereo earbuds under Rs 1500 market segment has been visibility oversaturated with manufacturers almost hitting the wall when it comes to innovations. The only thing driving this segment is the price point and effectiveness of the Advance Noise Cancelling feature.

Any brand that can manage to outdo the previous best in these two aspects can surely emerge as the segment winner. Keeping this in mind, all TWS manufacturers are now fighting for the spot of the best ANC technology at the most competitive price.

Wings Lifestyle is not behind in this aspect. The latest to join the range of Wings Audio products is the Wings Phantom 380.

A major highlight of Wings Phantom 380 is the ANC support. There’s a 30dB ANC support that is expected to cut off some outside noise. Wings Lifestyle has also offered ENC on the earbuds so the calls are clear.

Furthermore, the Phantom 380 pack a battery that will offer a total playback of up to 50 hours without ANC. With ANC support, the earbuds can get you 35 hours of playback.

Moreover, Phantom 380 feature Bullet Charge support which the brand claims will charge the earbuds fully in less time. The earbuds have an IPX5 rating and the latest Bluetooth 5.3 support.

Wings Phantom 380 Review

Also, Wings has offered different EQ settings in the Wings Sync app available on both iOS for iPhone and Play Store for Android.

Wings Phantom 380 Unboxing

Wings Phantom 380 Review

Wings Phantom 380 comes in a standard Wings Lifestyle purple colour packaging with product branding and details printed on the top. Inside the package, we get one pair of earbuds, a charging case, a charging cable, extra ear cushions, a user manual, a Wing Sync app download guide, a warranty card, and some other paperwork.

The earbuds come nicely tucked inside the charging case.

Overall, the packaging is standard and there is nothing really to highlight. We get what we would expect from a product in this segment.

Wings Phantom 380 Design

Wings Phantom 380 Review

In the design department, Wings has done a decent job with Wings Phantom 380. We had the White colour variant for the review and at first glance, it gives off a decent appearance.

The first to notice in the device is the charging case with a little shiny Wings branding on top, right above the notification LEDs. There is also a Type C port at the bottom of the charging case as expected.

The charging case is lightweight and compact that can be easily tucked in the smallest of pockets, an important aspect of design for on-the-go users. The magnetic case top cover hinge, however, could have been a bit more sturdy. We are not sure how long this case cover would last even with a little bit of rough usage.

The TWS earbuds design, on the other hand, is quite impressive for the product segment. The buds have a glossy finish at the backside with Wings branding and a matt finish at the front. The buds along with the case come with an ergonomic design and feature quad microphones with ENC support.

Wings Phantom 380 ANC and Sound Quality

Wings Phantom 380 Review

With Phantom 380, Wings Lifestyle has officially managed to overcome all the previous criticism the brand may have received with its previous TWS earbuds. The Phantom 380 come with 13mm drivers and promises premium sound quality.

Wings Phantom 380, available at the launch price of Rs 1,299, is definitely one of the most affordable TWS earbuds available in the market at the moment that offers advanced noise-cancelling features.

The performance of the feature, however, is close to decent than good. You can feel the difference in sound quality once the ANC is turned on and cuts off the outside clutter but still, the 30db ANC doesn’t completely help in cancelling the outside noise.

These TWS earbuds also come with Transparency Mode which allows the user to hear the outside noise through a microphone.

As for input mic and calling support, the bullet technology with four microphones provided on the buds helps in reducing ambient noises while making calls.

Wings Phantom 380 – Wings Sync App Support

Wings Phantom 380 Review

Wings Sync is an IOT-based app which is all set to bring never-before features to the Gaming TWS ecosystem. The Wings Phantom 380, when paired with the Sync App, completely transforms its performance taking the quality and performance of the TWS earbuds only a notch higher.

Some of the commonly used Wings Sync App functions

  • Locate your earbuds
  • Customise touch controls
  • Customise EQ
  • Toggle ANC Mode

Wings Phantom 380 Battery Life

Wings Phantom 380 Review

Wings Phantom 380 provides a whopping 50 hours of battery life with ANC turned off and around 35 hours with ANC turned on. As we set out to test this, it turned out that the claim made by Wings is entirely based on ideal user circumstances and no one can get this exact number of playback times in practical use.

Moreover, the only TWS earbuds backup is somewhere around 8-10 hours with ANC turned off and 5-7 hours with ANC turned on. It supports fast charging via a USB-C port.

Wings Phantom 380 Verdict

Wings Phantom 380 Review

The Wings Phantom 380 earbuds are for all those users who value style and function in equal measure. Affordably priced, the product USP of these earbuds is the ANC and transparency modes. The impressively long battery life is an added bonus.

Moreover, what really got us excited is the Wings Sync App support. Once you connect the device to the app, it uplifts the whole sound quality and completely changes the perception of the product.

Overall, Wings Phantom 380 is a decent pair of TWS earbuds with its immense playtime, ANC and Transparency mode features, Quad ENG microphone and dedicated gaming mode.

Reasons To Buy Wings Phantom 380

  • Value for money
  • Stylish design and function in equal measure
  • 13 mm High Fidelity Composite Driver
  • ANC and transparency modes
  • Dedicated gaming mode
  • Wings Sync App support for customised sound

Even the most ardent Android supporters out there would admit that in the world of tablets, the output of Android-based devices has dwindled in recent years.

Apple’s iPad today sails through with little to no competition as not very many brands seem to be interested in presenting a product that stands a real chance against Apple’s lineup. Now, it appears this tide is changing.

With Google’s Pixel Tablet on the way, we now have OnePlus joining the fray with their OnePlus Pad.

OnePlus Pad Review

Our team, at My Mobiles, have managed to spend some time with this new addition to the Indian tablet market and here’s our in-depth OnePlus Pad Review.

Before we get to the in-depth review, let’s take a quick look at the product overview, its features and pros & cons.

OnePlus has powered its first pad with the reliable MediaTek Dimencity 9000 5G SOC while the tablet sports a 11.61-inch LCD display with narrow bezels and a 144hz variable refresh rate.
The display comes in a 7×5 aspect ratio which OnePlus claims will provide a book-like reading experience and should be comfortable for all-day use.

The OnePlus Pad Price in India starts at Rs. 37,999 and it is expected to go on sale on 28th April 2023.

The OnePlus Pad has been launched in a single colour variant called Halo Green and the pad features an aluminium chassis with a matte finish back panel. This slim and lightweight pad design definitely stands out and so is the camera module centred along the length of the tablet in a unique look.

The pad has a 13-megapixel single rear camera that can shoot up to 4K 30 FPS videos and will be available in two variants of 8 GB RAM with 128 GB internal storage and 12 GB RAM with 256 GB of internal storage.
OnePlus pad uses an 8-megapixel front camera that can record videos up to 1080p at 30 FPS.

The pad also supports the new OnePlus Stylo Pen stylus for sketching, note-taking or various other tasks.
It uses a quad-speaker setup that supports Dolby Atmos and has the ability to automatically orient its left and right audio channels depending on how you are holding the device.

The OnePlus pad comes equipped with a 9510mh battery that supports 67-watt SUPERVOOC fast charging via the bundled adapter.

Moreover, as part of the OnePlus ecosystem push, users will be able to unlock additional features on the pad such as seamless 5G tethering, copy and paste between two devices and more.

This will be possible if you have a compatible OnePlus smartphone with the latest software and are signed in with the same account

So, let’s take a quick look at the key features and some device pros & cons.

OnePlus Pad Unboxing

OnePlus Pad Review

The OnePlus Pad is a highly anticipated tablet device from the popular Chinese smartphone manufacturer OnePlus. The device comes in a sleek and elegant package that is designed to catch the eye of its potential users.

The packaging is minimalistic and showcases the tablet’s design with an image of the device on the front cover.

Opening the box, the first thing you will find is the OnePlus Pad neatly placed on top, securely held in place with from packaging. Removing the tablet from the box, you will notice its slim profile and sleek design.

The tablet is made of premium materials and has a beautiful finish that looks and feels premium.

Underneath the tablet, you will find a bunch of in-box content that comes bundled with the OnePlus Pad. These include a SUPERVOOC Power Adapter, Type-C Cable, a Quick Start Guide and the Safety Information and Warranty Card.
The charging cable is of high quality and allows for fast charging, while the charging brick is compact and easy to carry around.

Turning on the device, you will be greeted with a vibrant and clear 11.61-inch display ready to showcase the tablet’s powerful performance.

At first glance, the OnePlus Pad appears to be a beautifully designed and highly functional tablet that is made to impress. The unboxing experience is also smooth and satisfying.

OnePlus Pad Design

OnePlus Pad Review

The OnePlus Pad has a stylish premium design that sets it apart from other tablets in the market. OnePlus comes in only one colour option – the Halo Green.

However, it’s the popular OnePlus subtle green hue and nothing too bright, thus, the OnePlus fans shouldn’t have an issue.

The slim aluminium body of just 6.5 mm in thickness has a stylized metal back with a star orbit pattern, according to the company. This is how OnePlus is describing the machine’s circular lines that surround the large camera lens in the centre of the device’s back. This feature distinguishes it from the average Android tablet and from Apple’s iPads as well.

The camera lens is nice and noticeable on the back making it a standout feature.

The back panel of the OnePlus pad has an engraved OnePlus logo.

Meanwhile, the pad’s edges are mostly rounded with softly curved corners and the overall design is nothing but lovely. And there are uniform bezels around the display.

Interestingly, we also loved that there is a flat rather than rounded magnetic strip on the top right corner that allows you to attach and charge the stylus.

The OnePlus Pad is also relatively lightweight at just 552 grams. In fact, during our usage, we found it to be lighter than the Lenovo Duet 3i or even Apple’s iPad Pro 12.9, making it a comfortable-to-use device.

OnePlus is also offering a separate stylus and folio case similar to what the iPad and the Lenovo Duet 3i offer. Based on our limited experience, the keyboard is pleasant to type on. Also, the trackpad beneath the keyboard and the stylus have good responsiveness.

The OnePlus Pad has a connector on the bottom edge that allows it to securely snap into the folio case and there’s a power button on the top edge.

Though it lacks a fingerprint sensor, instead you can use Face Unlock or a Passcode to unlock this tablet. The volume rocker is located on the right edge and there’s also a USB-C charging along with an audio port. When in landscape mode the speakers are located on the top and bottom edges.

OnePlus Pad Display

OnePlus Pad hands-on: A solid first attempt

The 11.61-inch LCD display of the OnePlus Pad has a resolution of 2800 x 2000 pixels and a pixel density of 296 PPI. Now, this is something fairly typical for a tablet whether Android or iOS.

However, Samsung’s tablets have moly displays rather than LCD, which is one aspect to consider before purchasing any one of these. Also, we can’t deny the fact that not having a higher-end display could surely be a deal breaker for many tab users today.

The OnePlus Pad appears to offer plenty of detail as well as decent brightness. It tops out at 500 nits, a little higher than the Lenovo Duet 3i and we noticed good viewing angles based on our initial impressions. The colours on the screen are vibrant and punchy as well.

During our usage, we also noticed that the screen has a slightly different aspect ratio than the norm at 7:5 which is intended to be similar to a piece of A4 paper and works extremely well.

Because the screen-to-body ratio is slightly higher than 88 per cent, the bezels are lovely and slim and they also look great.

There’s also an adaptive 144hz refresh rate on board as well as a touch sampling rate of 120 hertz or 144 Hertz.

OnePlus Pad Performance

OnePlus Pad Performance

The OnePlus Pad is powered by a high-end MediaTek Demensity 9000 Chipset with a clock speed of up to 3.05 gigahertz. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor found in the OnePlus 11 and many other Android Flagship phones is set to hit the market in 2023 and isn’t quite as powerful but as tablets go the OnePlus pad is a capable beast.

OnePlus has made a big deal about the pad’s multitasking capabilities and its 8 or 12 GB RAM. In conjunction with the RAM-vita, this pad is claimed to be able to allow the user to run up to 24 Live apps at the same time

Now, during our hands-on session with the device, we attempted to do just that and while there weren’t 24 different apps to test, the OnePlus Pad seemed to comfortably handle simultaneously running more apps than I’d ever reasonably care to use at the same time ever.

Interestingly, the tablet’s gaming performance does suffer when 23 other apps are open at the same time but the fact that the tablet had that many apps running along with a heavy gaming session and was still standing strong is definitely impressive.

For more on how multitasking on OnePlus Pad actually feels, we will have to wait till more users come out with their experiences after the recent India launch.

And there are no 4G or 5G options for the OnePlus Pad. So you’ll have to rely on Wi-Fi for internet-related tasks.

The OnePlus Pad is powered by the brand’s Android 13-based Oxygen OS 13, which began rolling out to OnePlus smartphones in early 2023.

As a result, all of Oxygen OS bells and whistles are present and correct here with the split screen option which allows you to display two apps at the same time for easier multitasking.

This especially suits the OnePlus pads tablet form factor.

OnePlus Pad Camera

OnePlus Pad Review

The OnePlus Pad is equipped with two cameras – a 13-megapixel primary sensor on the back and an 8-megapixel selfie camera on the front.

Now, neither lenses are particularly innovative in function or design but the positioning of these cameras is definitely more intriguing than the OnePlus Pad’s actual camera setup.

The 13-megapixel circular rear sensor on the rear side of the tablet is smack dab in the middle of the frame. This is something OnePlus claims will help make photos appear a lot more natural.

With only a few sample shots during our hands-on testing of the device, it’s difficult to say whether that OnePlus decision about camera placement actually paid off or not. The shots we tried taking using the rear camera came out quite nice, even though there was nothing extraordinary.

The single 13-megapixel camera can shoot up to 4K 30 FPS videos and during our tests, the video results were quite satisfactory.

What will be interesting to compare is the look of pictures taken on the OnePlus Pad to those taken on any of Apple’s iPads. This will definitely give more clarity regarding the camera capabilities.

OnePlus Pad Battery

OnePlus Pad review: a new cheaper Android iPad challenger | Tablet computers | The Guardian

On paper, the OnePlus Pad comes with a massive 9510mAh battery that should outlast some of the best tablets available in the Indian tablet market in 2023.

Moreover, the pad can be fully charged in approximately 80 minutes using its 67-watt SUPERVOOC charging mechanism. As per OnePlus’s claim, the pad will be able to provide over 12.4 hours of video watching and one-month standby life.

Now, the battery specification definitely looks promising on paper and our usage experience definitely displayed the strength of the battery,

Verdict

OnePlus Pad Performance

The OnePlus Pad is a lovely slim and slender tablet with a design that is a little different from other Android tablets. It has a premium build quality and some great features that make it an overall ideal choice when it comes to Andriod tablets.

Also, the keyboard on the folio case is great to type on from what we’ve seen so far.

There is no denying the fact that the OnePlus Pad has been launched with the intention to make a difference.

The stylish device with its really impressive battery power along with inbuilt functionalities will definitely give the device a boost in the market once the user experience starts rolling out as the sale starts.

The device is being marketed as a multitask pad that can be used throughout the day in a seamless manner and in our experience.

OnePlus’s well thought move to have 128GB internal storage along with the standard camera setup on both sides promises to cater exclusively to both work and entertainment requirements.

Lastly, an inbuilt 4G VoLTE voice calling facility is a good added feature to have.

Overall, if you are an Android enthusiast and looking for a large device with multitasking capabilities, the new OnePlus Pad is something we will surely recommend you to look at. Priced at Rs 37,999, this one packs everything that you might need in your everyday usage.
