For the longest time, OPPO’s Enco Air lineup quietly disappeared from conversations around the best TWS earbuds in India. Other brands took over the segment with aggressive tuning, flashy features, and overloaded apps. Now, OPPO is finally back with the Enco Air5 Pro, and this comeback lands properly. At ₹5,000, these earbuds bring almost everything …

Compact and near-compact flagships are no longer niche products. Initially, I expected the Find X9s to be a proper 6.3-inch compact flagship. That unfortunately did not happen. Instead, the Find X9s ships with a 6.59-inch display, which still makes it smaller and easier to use than many traditional flagships, though it does not feel as …

The Infinix Note 60 Pro focuses on design, battery life, charging, display quality, and a few unique additions like the Active Matrix display on the back. It also marks an important shift for Infinix, as one of its first mainstream phones powered by a Snapdragon chipset. The phone starts at ₹30,999 and brings an aluminum …

The Nord CE Lite series is back after a two-year gap, and OnePlus has a lot riding on this return. The Nord CE4 Lite was among the highest-selling Android phones in its price segment during Amazon India’s Great Indian Festival 2024, which is a tough act to follow. The Nord CE6 Lite starts at ₹20,999 …

There is a question every serious smartphone buyer eventually asks themselves, usually while standing in a store, weighing a phone they already know they’ll probably buy: Is this really the best I can do? For years, the honest answer has been frustratingly predictable. An iPhone Pro Max. Or a Samsung Galaxy Ultra. Everything else? Runner-up. …

The iQOO 15R brings a substantial shift in the company’s lineup. Earlier, this position in the series was held by the Neo models. This year iQOO has introduced the R branding alongside the main iQOO 15, presenting it as a more accessible companion while keeping the core philosophy of the series intact. At first glance, …

Foldables have improved massively over the last few years, though one issue always remained visible (literally): the crease. Every brand tried reducing it, hiding it, minimizing reflections around it, or making users forget about it entirely. The OPPO Find N6 is probably the first foldable where the crease actually stops being something you constantly notice …

The vivo T-series has historically focused on balancing performance, cameras, and battery life at a relatively competitive price between the ₹25,000 to ₹35,000 range. Last year’s T4 Pro followed that formula remarkably well, with a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, a 50MP 3x periscope zoom, and a 6,500 mAh battery, making it one of the …

OnePlus is back with the Pad 4, and this time, you get a faster chip, a bigger battery, and software that is more polished with more features. It builds on what the previous Pad already did well, and with the chip upgrade, battery upgrade, and a few other improvements, this one just takes things further. …

Last year, Circuit House, a startup founded by former Xiaomi and Flipkart team members, launched the Lumio Vision series in India and quickly made a mark in the premium TV segment. Their 2026 model features an EVA QD-MiniLED panel with 7,000:1 native contrast, 4K 144Hz refresh rate, a 50-watt dual-subwoofer audio system, and Android 14 …

The Nord CE lineup has usually focused on balancing performance, battery life, and software while keeping prices slightly lower than the main Nord series. The Nord CE5 followed that formula fairly well with a capable Dimensity chipset, decent cameras, and surprisingly good software support. The Nord CE6 changes that approach quite a bit. OnePlus has …

The vivo X300 FE arrives as the successor to the vivo X200 FE, and the idea is familiar at first glance. A compact flagship that tries to balance size with serious hardware. This time, the positioning feels slightly different. The standard vivo X300 is also compact, which puts the FE in a tighter spot. What …

The 14-inch laptop is the hardest category to get right. It has to be genuinely compact and light enough to carry everywhere, yet powerful enough to justify its price over a 13-inch budget option. For years, Apple’s MacBook Air owned this space without serious Windows competition. The Samsung Galaxy Book6 Pro 14-inch (NP940XJG-KG6IN) is the …

Samsung’s Plus model has usually sat in a slightly awkward spot. The Ultra gets most of the attention, the base model gets picked for its size and price, and the Plus ends up in between. This year, it still sits in that same position. The Galaxy S26+ keeps things straightforward. You get a large high-resolution …

Apple has never cared about the budget laptop market, dominated by Chromebooks and Windows laptops. For years, the cheapest MacBook people bought set them back by around ₹80,000 to ₹90,000, depending on the prevalent pricing and offers, unless you decided to get a four or five-year-old machine at ridiculously discounted prices.Then one day, Apple …

I picked up the Galaxy S26, and found its pitch quite convincing. A compact, premium build, powerful phone that features the world’s first 2nm chipset, and a mature camera system backed by Samsung’s increasingly capable AI. While One UI offers a clean and refined user interface, it also takes care of long-term users. On paper, …

The OPPO F-series usually targets buyers who care about design, cameras, battery life, and a polished everyday experience more than benchmark numbers. The OPPO F33 Pro follows that same formula closely. At first glance, it checks a lot of boxes people usually like. It looks premium, is pretty slim, charges quickly, has a bright AMOLED …

The Quick Take: Score: 7.5/10 The Renault Kiger is the car you’d go for if you want something fun and engaging to drive at a budget. Only the turbo petrol, however, is for those who want driving pleasure. The infotainment display feels outdated, but it is still better-equipped than competition despite the slight imperfections in …

For years, Samsung’s earbud strategy felt like a restless search for an identity. We had the “beans” (Buds Live), the “buds” (Buds 2 Pro), and last year’s sudden pivot to the “blade” stems. It often felt like Samsung was more interested in reacting to Apple than defining its own path. I tested the Samsung Galaxy …

Wireless charging has finally matured, and if you use both an iPhone and an Apple Watch, carrying separate chargers starts to feel unnecessary. GM Modular, the same brand behind the TravelEase Pro adapter we reviewed last year, has now launched the G+ iSmart Qi2 2-in-1 Wireless Charger. It is a compact magnetic charger with 15W …
