         The 6th gen Moto G smartphones are actually upto something. And that can be seen in their hardware upgrades, which is nothing like the previous generation Moto smartphones. Like the other G6 series phones, the G6 play also sports some good hardware and a special upgrade for the camera that most budget phones miss out (and that's where you get disappointment on buying one).         The Moto G6 play combines sufficient performance with a capable camera for a good price, just like the E5 plus. Else for the previous G4 play, which was quite a good phone, that did not meet the actual budget expectations, though that was 2 years ago. But this time, the G6 play did. It comes with a Snapdragon 430 (snapdragon 425 for USA variant) Chipset for providing all the power needed, an improved 13MP camera and a big 4000mAh battery with fast charging. Well specifications seem good, but is it a good buy? or just a waste of money? Read below Is the new Moto G6 Play a good buy???   

       The Moto G5 plus was quite of a impressive phone providing performance with a capable camera. Pricewise, Moto phones are always more budget friendly.

             The Moto E5 plus got launched recently and as of the E series smartphone, this one also comes with pretty much serious hardware for the small price. One of the key specification of the E5 plus is its huge 5000mAh battery pack that can provide almost more than 2 days of battery backup. And that matters  mostly for a budget is to provide sufficient battery performance with other specifications being good enough. The E5 does come with a good chipset, a new quality camera (better than previous E series phones) and with a big full body display with a comfortable body. The E5 plus is now around 12,000 INR (If you prefer online prices).                The E5 has a bigger battery than most of the phones (that have either of 3,400 or 4,100mAh), but few phones do come with 5000mAh battery (Lenovo P2, the new Asus zenfone max pro m1, previous generation Asus max phones), but do they offer better backup? Consistently. But there are flaws that prove that overall specifications of

        The moto E series phones have been one of the best budget phones from Motorola for the lower budget range. These phones do come up with one thing ; Huge battery sizes with amazing battery performance that other brand phones find hard to offer (Asus does, but not that efficiently).

              The Nokia X6 has been into some pretty much good competition from the midrange makers and it pretty much survived with some sensible hardwares. The first range nokia phones dint sport some serious hardware (Nokia 8 did, but the camera was not at similarly expected like that of LG G6, but it did well enough). But the next range of phones did come with some goods better than most brands and perfectly suited to the price. The Nokia X6 was one of the smartphones made for mostly the midrange competition and it does have some intense features fit for the money you will spend. The Nokia X6 dosent come with a friendly price tag                Other brands like to keep their phone above all and that just keeps the competition hot. Well, Nokia did think that through and the X6 seems like a sufficient phone for the job of the midrange champion. Or is it? The biggest flaw in the X6 was its battery, which was not sufficient for such a beast (A beast should have a big energy so

               Nokia has been quite around out of the mobile world and it is back again with a bang. Well,it dint sound like that much, but it has been able to grab the smartphone market well enough with incredible featured smartphones. Nokia phones have been quite around with one of the best hardwares and cameras (for which it is known for decades, and the incredible nokia lumias). The best nokia phones that have been around are the Nokia 7 plus, Nokia 6 2018, midrange focused Nokia X6(goes after the old nokia's 1st android) and Nokia 8 sirocco, Nokia 8. All of the nokia phones have been still like the old lumias, class performer with better cameras than the counterparts. And its still on. The Nokia X6 comes with a stabilized DEPTH SENSE Camera           The Nokia X6 is one of the best phones that came out in 2018, to battle against the similarly specd phones of other brands (mainly the Asus zenfone max pro m1 and the Redmi Note 5 pro). The X6 comes with intense features th

         Pop up cameras got attention recently with the new Oppo Find X that has a great pop up camera system. Not only that, it too does a good thing for the recent trend of Full Vision displays. And that is providing an actual one, which defines the definition of a Full Vision displays that have been employed on smartphone. But Find X nails it with an incredible body design too (bit better than the NEX S) with no camera body. Only Glass, metal and the display is what you see. Well, that may seem a good choice for the next generation of phones, do you think the pop up camera system is actually a good thing for flagships? Lets talk about that. The Oppo NEX S has a mini pop up front camera          Pop up cameras are different in the sense, that they actually pop up. No, Dual cameras dont get double from a single one. That would be absurd. The camera modules in the pop up mechanism still uses the same peripherals, lens, optics, sensors. DUAL setup in these actually come wit

        The Oppo Find X is the new flagship smartphone from the keen midrange maker and this is no ordinary flagship. The key feature of the Find X is that it has a pop up camera system. A particular module pops up by a weird motorized system which contains the DUAL rear camera system and the front camera along with the Face ID scanner. This is something innovative as it allows the Find X to achieve a FULL VISION Display (an actual FULL VISION Display) and provides the phone a camera less look. Well, this does amazes the body since what you see is clean body on one side and complete screen on another(front), without the distracting peripherals (and a notch too).        The Find X is may be one of Oppo's first Flagships, with flagship grade features. The Oppo F7 is near to a typical flagship, powered by the Helio P60 which is an actual High grade Chipset with AI features (and new architecture too). Technically, the Helio P60 is the first highly advanced flagship grade midrange c

      The Oppo Find X recently got released without a camera module on its body. And that is just amazing for a full body display without a camera on the either side, but as a pop up module which sports both the dual rear setup and the front camera. Oppo already had phones that came with impressive camera modules, much of the technology infused. But now that includes improved camera quality too with better sensors and optics. Quite an uncommon thing, but Oppo dosent stand that much in the flagship ground as it is much more concentrated in the midrange and budget segment.  But with the Find X, it did secure a place. It will be determined in the future whether this will be temporary or permanent. The Oppo Find X is more of the premium flagship        The Oppo Find X comes with incredible features, and also with a flagship level price that wont dissapoint flagship users. But it does have a possibility to stand against the premium flagship phones and also emerge out as a better one

       The Oppo Realme 1 came out recently. Probably with other Oppo  Phones but it somehow didn't fit the budget category, not even the lower midrange. Earlier we had simple more numbered power efficient core chipsets manufactured on smaller fabrication sizes so as to increase battery life. Exynos 7870 was the best battery efficient chipset used on any budget phone than the more famous Snapdragon 625 (also 626, recent 450, 630). It still being used inspite of better ones already there like the Exynos 7880 or the 7885. Well, Mediatek's chips in budgets had a higher number of cores always, like the Helio X25,X23 but its recent chips are somewhat different.        More and more battery life along with limitless processing power, this is what we have always wanted in our phones. No matter who did it. Well actually the less famous Mediatek did that for once. The new Helio P60 (and the P30) announced came with some incredible processors, those which are actually needed in a phon

             The Oppo Realme is not just one of the best budget phones right now, its actually "THE BEST BUDGET PHONE EVER" released into the market. The Chinese brand releases a wide variety of phones with good hardware (not good for the price though), and they somehow show good sales.  Well at this time, the Realme 1 brings another deal. Not just sufficient processing power with enough good features, the price you pay is only for the chipset itself and rest everything comes for free. Thats what it seems like. The Realme1 is the best budget and midrange smartphone you can buy right now           The Realme 1 comes with lots of new great features for the price, with prominently a high grade chipset, that most phones miss out. Wonder what are those? Check out below. HERE ARE 6 THE BEST FEATURES OF THE OPPO REALME 1 1. Well blended Plastic body            The Realme 1 dosent come in a metallic body like most phones do.
