<ul><li>This Nokia phone offers an upgraded experience to those who want a stock Android smartphone in the budget segment. </li><li>The device, true to its promise, delivers a bloatware-free experience, standing apart from the competition. </li><li>But is the clean software enough to justify the slightly less powerful hardware when compared to other phones? I find out in my review. </li></ul>The <keyword id="10355180" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Nokia-5-4">Nokia 5.4</keyword> is the latest smartphone from Finland-based <keyword id="3368145" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="HMD-Global">HMD Global</keyword> to launch in India, promising to offer a clean and bloatware-free experience. As part of the Android One programme, Nokia smartphones offer 3 years of monthly security updates and 2 years of operating system updates. While this is an added advantage if you want to buy a Nokia smartphone, you might have to sacrifice a bit in terms of hardware features. A similar pattern is evident with the Nokia 5.4, but a great smartphone is a sum of its good software and hardware. HMD Global tries to strike a balance between the two aspects with the Nokia 5.4, so I was intrigued to see how it actually works out in real life. Nokia 5.4 price and availability The phone is priced at ₹13,999 for the 4GB variant, and ₹15,499 for the 6GB variant. It comes in two colours – Polar Night and Dusk. Here are some of the phones the Nokia 5.4 is competing with: <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Phone </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Price </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Poco M3 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹10,999 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Poco M2 Pro </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹12,999 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹12,999 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Realme 7 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹14,999 </td></tr></tbody></table> Design, build quality and display HMD Global has kept things simple when it comes to design, but at the same time, it has added some flair to keep things interesting. The front of the phone is noticeable for its thick chin with the Nokia branding. <div type="image" title="Nokia 5.4 back" msid="81034243" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Nokia 5.4 back&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> On the back, the company has opted for a gradient finish but the glossy plastic panel makes it a fingerprint magnet. It does look good but you might want to use a case if a clean phone is important to you. The build quality is good and there are no noticeable squeaky noises. The phone has a 6.39-inch display that gets bright enough in most situations when you’re indoors. However, readability takes a hit under direct sunlight. On the downside, the display resolution is just HD+. For context, most phones in this price range feature a Full HD+ display. The immediate effect of this is on media consumption – the video quality is restricted to just 720p. Software One of the key selling points of the Nokia 5.4 is its software. It comes with Android 10 out of the box and should receive the Android 11 update in the near future. <div type="image" title="Nokia 5 4 software" msid="81035127" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The Nokia 5.4 offers a clean and clutter-free experience&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Sticking to its promise of a clean experience, the Nokia 5.4 comes without any bloatware. This comes as a breath of fresh air – more so because there is a dearth of Android One smartphones, with the only comparable alternative being the Xiaomi Mi A3 which was launched in 2019. The Nokia 5.4 should have come with Android 11 out of the box, especially since Google announced Android 11 back in September, 2020. That being said, it is expected to get the update in the near future. Performance and battery life The Nokia 5.4 was mostly a smooth performer, especially while performing basic tasks like messaging, calling, streaming music or videos. I noticed minor stutters while scrolling across the interface, but those were few and far between. <div type="image" title="Nokia 5.4" msid="81034313" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Nokia 5.4&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Given that the phone is powered by the Snapdragon 662 chipset, I had not expected a lot from it, especially when it comes to gaming. I was able to play some basic puzzle games like 2048, Sudoku, and even Subway Surf without any issues. However, the phone stuttered while playing graphic-intensive games like Call of Duty: Mobile and Asphalt 9. The Nokia 5.4 is powered by a 4,000mAh battery that easily lasted me an entire day of usage, with dozens of calls, hundreds of messages and moderate video streaming. Camera <div type="image" title="Nokia 5.4 camera" msid="81034357" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Nokia 5.4 cameras&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Nokia 5.4 offers a quad-camera setup, with a 48MP primary camera and a 5MP ultrawide camera, along with two 2MP cameras. In real life, the Nokia 5.4 delivers okay-ish results. It manages to capture a good amount of detail in daylight conditions, but the colours are not as rich or true as they should be. <div type="image" title="Daylight photo" msid="81034589" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Nokia 5.4 daylight photo&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The phone fared well enough in indoor lighting conditions, but on the whole it could have done better. <div type="image" title="Nokia 5.4 indoor" msid="81034782" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Nokia 5.4 indoor photo&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Verdict The Nokia 5.4 has its task cut out, especially in a sea of smartphones with relatively more powerful hardware. Theoretically, phones like the Poco M3, Poco M2 Pro, Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro and the Realme 7 offer similar or better hardware at comparable prices. However, the software experience redeems the Nokia 5.4, especially if you prefer a bloatware-free experience. If you want a clean, clutter-free experience, the Nokia 5.4 is a good option.

Like other Motorola devices, the Moto G10 Power offers a near-stock Android experience and is free from bloatware and ads, which are usually found in budget devices. But the clean, near-stock Android experience is not the main selling point of the Moto G10 Power – it’s the battery life. When you combine a budget smartphone that doesn’t use a lot of power with a big 6,000mAh battery, the end result is a phone that refuses to die for days. However, is that enough? Is really long battery life the only thing that the Moto G10 Power is good at? Let’s find out in our detailed review of Motorola’s latest smartphone. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Moto G10 Power price and availability" comment="subhead" text="Moto G10 Power price and availability">Moto G10 Power price and availability</cmsannotation> The Moto G10 Power has been priced at ₹9,999 and is available in Aurora Grey and Breeze Blue colours from Flipkart. At this price point, the Moto G10 Power competes with the following phones: <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#000000;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Phone </td><td style="border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#000000;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Price </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime </td><td style="border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹9,499 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Realme Narzo 30a </td><td style="border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹8,999 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Vivo Y12s </td><td style="border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹9,990 </td></tr></tbody></table> <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Design, build quality and display" comment="subhead" text="Design, build quality and display">Design, build quality and display</cmsannotation> <div type="image" title="Moto G10 Power" msid="81583646" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto G10 Power&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Like its mid-range sibling – the Moto G30 – the Moto G10 Power also sports a chunky design. This is not bad in itself, and it doesn’t really hinder usability, but there are slimmer phones out there that feel much better to hold. The primary reason for this is, of course, the big 6,000mAh battery. The phone has curves on the sides to make it easier to hold the device, but you still can’t escape the fact that this is a thick phone, and at 220 grams, it is heavy, too. <div type="image" title="Moto G10 Power" msid="81583656" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto G10 Power&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Another area where Motorola could have done a better job is the design of the phone’s back. It has a textured back, but the choice of the colour shade makes it a little less appealing. But apart from that, the phone is sturdy and feels solid to hold. Like the G30, this phone also feels as if it’s built like a tank – something that cannot always be said about phones these days. <div type="image" title="Moto G10 Power" msid="81583663" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto G10 Power&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Moto G10 Power sports a 6.5-inch HD+ resolution display. It is bright enough at 100% brightness level, but anything less than 60% brightness is too dull in regular indoor usage. I also struggled a bit while trying to use the phone under direct sunlight. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Software" comment="subhead" text="Software">Software</cmsannotation> It runs on stock Android with almost zero bloatware. This is one of the highlights of the device as most devices in this range feature a custom UI and come with several pre-loaded apps. The built-in Motorola app allows you to customise the phone in terms of themes, colour schemes and icon shapes. You can also enable up to six different gestures to quickly access the camera, turn on the flashlight, unlock the phone and more. If you want a budget phone that doesn’t flood you with ads and bloatware, the Moto G10 Power should be on your list. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Performance and battery life" comment="subhead" text="Performance and battery life">Performance and battery life</cmsannotation> Running the Moto G10 Power is the Snapdragon 460 chipset, paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB of storage. The internal storage can be expanded using a microSD card. To put it bluntly, the Moto G10 Power is not the smoothest phone in this price segment. The bloat-free operating system is an advantage, but it does not completely make up for the lack of power. Switching between apps, clicking photos or even scrolling might sometimes test your patience, but then again, there’s only so much you can expect from an entry-level phone. The highlight of the phone is its massive 6,000mAh battery, and it shines in real world usage. The phone simply refuses to die, and in our usage, it lasted for more than two days with moderate usage. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Camera" comment="subhead" text="Camera">Camera</cmsannotation> <div type="image" title="Moto G10 Power" msid="81583670" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto G10 Power&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Moto G10 Power sports a quad camera setup on the back along with an 8MP selfie camera on the front. There is a 48MP primary camera, an 8MP ultrawide camera and two 2MP cameras. <div type="image" title="Moto G10 Power camera sample" msid="81583698" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Images captured in daylight conditions&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Daylight photos were okayish, but the colours were surprisingly more washed out when taken with the primary 48MP camera, when compared to the 8MP ultrawide camera. Overall, the cameras are serviceable but nothing to write home about. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Verdict" comment="subhead" text="Verdict">Verdict</cmsannotation> The Moto G10 Power is aimed at those who want an ad-free, bloat-free smartphone under ₹10,000 with amazing battery life. It gets those things right, and everything beyond that is an added bonus. Sure, it might not be the snappiest, smoothest phone in this segment but it is one of the longest-lasting phones amongst its competitors.

Offering an almost-stock Android experience, the unique selling point of these Moto smartphones is that they are free of bloatware and ads. The Moto G30 is a step-up when compared to other recently launched Motorola phones. It is still a budget phone but it packs in a little more power and features. The hardware is similar to the Realme 7i that is priced similarly and the bloat-free interface might help keep the experience smooth. We have been testing the Moto G30 for two weeks now and here’s our detailed review. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Moto G30 price and availability" comment="subhead" text="Moto G30 price and availability">Moto G30 price and availability</cmsannotation> The Moto G30 is priced at ₹10,999. It comes in two colour options – Dark Pearl and Pastel Sky. It will be available for purchase from Flipkart starting March 17. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Design, build quality and display" comment="subhead" text="Design, build quality and display">Design, build quality and display</cmsannotation> <div type="image" title="Moto G30" msid="81407303" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto G30&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Moto G30 sports a chunky design. While it does feel solid to hold, Motorola could have improved the experience by using a subtle curved back design. The device weighs 200 grams. <div type="image" title="Moto G30" msid="81407464" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto G30&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The colour choice doesn’t sit too well with me. This is extremely subjective, though, so you might want to check out both the colours in person before making a judgement. Apart from that, the build quality is great. There were no squeaks and the phone didn't flex. It almost feels as if it’s built like a tank. <div type="image" title="Moto G30 front" msid="81407317" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto G30 display&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Moto G30 sports a 6.5-inch HD+ display with 90Hz refresh rate. The display size and refresh rate are positives, and while the resolution is low, it is acceptable at this price point. I also struggled a bit when viewing the contents on the phone under direct sunlight. Overall, Motorola could have done a better job with the design and display. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Software" comment="subhead" text="Software">Software</cmsannotation> Software is one of the strengths of the Moto G30. It comes with Android 11 installed out of the box, and despite offering an almost-stock Android experience, Motorola has included several customisation options without breaking the user experience. The phone comes with the Moto app pre-installed which lets you customise the theme with different colour schemes and icon shapes. You can also enable up to six different gestures to quickly access the camera, turn on the flashlight, unlock the phone and more. If you are a stock Android fan but still want some customisation options, then the Moto G30 could be on your list. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Performance and battery life" comment="subhead" text="Performance and battery life">Performance and battery life</cmsannotation> Motorola has opted for a Snapdragon 662 chipset which is paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. There’s no 6GB version, which might be a bummer for those who want to future-proof their phones. In terms of real-world usage, the Moto G30 was adequately fast and smooth. The Snapdragon 662 chipset is no slouch, but it’s not very powerful either. While the general usage was smooth enough, I did notice some minor stutters while gaming and scrolling. The phone is powered by a 5,000mAh battery and supports 20W fast charging. It lasted me an entire day easily with moderate gaming, streaming, messaging and calls. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Camera" comment="subhead" text="Camera">Camera</cmsannotation> <div type="image" title="Moto G30 camera" msid="81407350" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto G30 camera&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Moto G30 comes with a quad-camera setup, with a 64MP primary camera, an 8MP wide angle camera and two 2MP cameras. It has a 13MP selfie camera on the front. <div type="image" title="Moto G30" msid="81407354" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Images captured in daylight conditions.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Daylight shots were alright, but the colours were slightly washed out. This has been an issue with some Motorola phones and we hope it gets sorted out via updates. The phone does struggle a bit in slightly more challenging conditions, especially when indoors and with the macro mode enabled. The bottomline is that the cameras are decent in good lighting conditions. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Verdict" comment="subhead" text="Verdict">Verdict</cmsannotation> The Moto G30 is a good option if you are looking for a budget smartphone without ads and bloatware. It offers a smooth and clean user experience while still offering decent performance and long battery life.

Moto G30 review – a decent budget phone with a bloat-free user experience

<keyword id="6355629" type="DEFINITION" weightage="20" keywordseo="google">Google</keyword> is reportedly planning to roll out a feature for its Pixel smartphones in the <keyword id="9173880" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Android-12">Android 12</keyword> that will automatically rotate the display based on a user's face. The face-based version of Auto-Rotate to <keyword id="3702746" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="pixel-phones">Pixel phones</keyword> will use the front-facing camera to check if anyone is looking at the screen. If it detects that someone is indeed looking at the screen then it will try to determine in which way their head is turned, reports 9to5Google. It is possible that this face-based version of Auto-Rotate could launch as a broader Android 12 feature, but for now it will be exclusively for Pixel phones. Android 12's developer preview release is expected to be released on February 19, while its public release is expected in early September. As usual, <keyword id="3623609" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Google-Pixel">Google Pixel</keyword> owners will likely be among the first to receive updates to Google's latest software. Google is also planning to add double-tap gesture support for Pixel phones with Android 12. The double tap could allow Pixel users to summon Google Assistant, it could also be used for different tasks such as dismissing a timer or snoozing an alarm. Android 12 double-tap feature would include the ability to adjust the sensitivity to only recognise 'firm' taps. Users can also use the gesture to take a screenshot, pause or resume media playback, open the recent apps view, and open the notification panel.

Android 12 rolls out: These smartphones will get the latest update

<ul><li>The primary highlight of the Moto E7 Power is undoubtedly stock Android and the bloatware-free experience it offers.</li><li>While a clean experience is always a great addition, it’s also worth considering the entire package that a phone offers in terms of display, performance and cameras.</li><li>Does the Moto E7 Power strike a good balance between good software and adequately robust hardware? Let’s find out.</li></ul>The entry-level phone segment is still one of the most competitive segments in India, offering buyers a wide variety of options, each with a varying degree of value for money. There are alternatives from Xiaomi, Realme, Oppo and Vivo that offer similar features but each with its own customised experiences. However, not all entry-level phones are made equal. Often phones in this segment are riddled with ads and bloatware – the two things which have an immediate impact on the user experience. That is where phones like the Moto E7 Power come in offering a clean, bloat-free experience at competitive prices. If you are in the market for a phone that doesn’t scream ads at you, the Moto E7 Power promises to be a good option. I put this phone through the paces to understand if it is worth your consideration. Moto E7 Power price and availability The Moto E7 Power is priced at ₹7,499 for the 2GB RAM varaint and ₹8,299 for the 4GB RAM variant in India. It comes in two colours – Tahiti Blue and Coral Red. It will be available for purchase on Flipkart starting from February 28. At this price point, the Moto E7 Power competes with these phones: <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Phone </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Price </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Xiaomi Redmi 9A </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹6,999 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Poco C3 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹7,499 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Xiaomi Redmi 9i </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹8,299 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Xiaomi Redmi 9 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹8,999 </td></tr></tbody></table> Design, build quality and display The Moto E7 Power comes with a plastic build and the phone I tested had a matte finish. However, the first look at the phone is enough to tell you it is an entry-level device. The plastic build doesn’t inspire confidence, and the phone feels blocky to hold. <div type="image" title="Moto E7 Power" msid="81102473" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto E7 Power&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> As far as design and build quality are concerned, Motorola could have done a better job. The buttons on the right feel wonky to use, but thankfully, there were no squeaky noises during my tests. The phone sports a 6.5-inch HD+ display, with slightly thick bezels and a noticeably thick chin. The display gets bright enough indoors, but readability under direct sunlight can be challenging. The colour reproduction is good and uniform. Software Software is unarguably the biggest strength of the Moto E7 Power. It runs on stock Android with almost zero bloatware. This comes as a breath of fresh air in this price segment, so kudos to Motorola -- owned by Chinese firm Lenovo -- for this. It comes with the Facebook app bundled, but it can be uninstalled. Apart from this, the Moto E7 Power sticks to stock Android, with zero modifications to the interface. It does have a dedicated button to summon Google Assistant, which can be useful if you use it frequently. The one area where Motorola could have done better is the Android version – the Moto E7 Power comes with Android 10 out of the box instead of Android 11, which has been out for over 5 months now. Performance and battery life An octa-core MediaTek chipset drives the phone, paired with up to 4GB memory and 64GB storage. In my tests, I noticed the Moto E7 Power stutter while scrolling and navigating. However, it is worth remembering that this is an entry-level phone, so sheer power is not the important consideration here. The phone is powered by a 5,000mAh battery that lasts for over a day of usage, with intermittent calls and messages, streaming a few videos on YouTube and browsing social media. It comes with a standard 10W charger. Camera <div type="image" title="Moto E7 Power camera" msid="81102483" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The Moto E7 Power has two cameras on the back&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Moto E7 Power sports a dual camera setup on the back with a 13MP primary camera and a 2MP secondary camera. <div type="image" title="Moto E7 Power daylight" msid="81102495" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Moto E7 Power daylight sample&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Daylight shots were decent, but colours were slightly washed out. The phone struggled a bit in slightly more challenging conditions. Essentially, the camera is serviceable but you shouldn’t expect it to do wonders. Verdict The Moto E7 Power is an entry-level smartphone and as such, the primary focus is on the basics like the software and ease of use. It does well in these two areas since it runs on stock Android and features almost no bloatware. The memory and storage are adequate as well, so that is another point in Motorola’s favour. The display quality and camera performance could have been better, though. The design and build feel unfinished, too. But if you need a simple, no-frills entry-level phone, the Moto E7 Power is worth considering.

The new Galaxy F62 promises to deliver the best of Galaxy M51 with even better performance, thanks to the slightly better chipset. This is especially important in the mid-range segment that is getting crowded with some very competitive offerings from Xiaomi, OnePlus and Realme. Has Samsung managed to exceed its own phone, the Galaxy M51, and the rest of the competition? Let’s find out. <keyword id="10373435" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Samsung-Galaxy-F62">Samsung Galaxy F62</keyword> price and availability The phone is available at a price of ₹23,999 for the 6GB variant and ₹25,999 for the 8GB variant. It comes in Laser Blue, Laser Green and Laser Grey colours and can be purchased from Flipkart, Samsung online store, Reliance Digital and select Jio stores. At this price point, the Galaxy F62 competes with these phones: <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Phone </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Price </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Samsung Galaxy M51 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹22,999 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Xiaomi Mi 10i </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹20,999 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">OnePlus Nord </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹24,999 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Realme X7 Pro 5G </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.5pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:0pt 5.75pt 0pt 5.75pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹29,999 </td></tr></tbody></table> Design and build quality Samsung continues with its glasstic design philosophy with the Galaxy F62 as well. Glasstic here means a combination of glass and plastic, for the outer shell of the phone. Sadly, the phone’s back scratches easily, and a few days of use has already left a few noticeable scratches on the back. Unfortunately, Samsung has not included a case in the box, so you will have to buy one yourself. <div type="image" title="Samsung Galaxy F62 back" msid="81084383" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Samsung Galaxy F62 comes with a glasstic back.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Galaxy F62 joins a growing list of phones that have the fingerprint sensor integrated with the power button on the left. Some other phones which use the same approach are the Galaxy M31s, the Redmi Note 9 Pro and Pro Max, among others. <div type="image" title="Samsung Galaxy F62 side" msid="81084394" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Samsung Galaxy F62 features a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Overall, the design and build quality are good, except for the easily scratchable back. Display The Galaxy F62 comes with a 6.67-inch AMOLED display, with Full HD+ resolution just like the one on the Galaxy M51. It is bright, crisp and also supports Widevine L1 certification, which is needed if you want to stream content in Full HD resolution. However, it is a 60Hz panel, unlike the OnePlus Nord which comes with a 90Hz display. In my usage, the phone was readable even under direct sunlight. It has a hole punch notch on the top that houses the selfie camera. Software Samsung packs in plenty of features with its custom skin One UI. The Galaxy F62 comes with Android 11 and One UI 3.1 out of the box – both being the latest versions currently available. You can start using the Galaxy F62 out of the box without any customization and you will still appreciate the balance Samsung has struck in terms of ease of use and power features like the Edge panel that houses shortcuts. If that is not enough, you can customise the phone to your heart’s content by going into the Settings and playing with the options available. Overall, Samsung’s One UI skin offers a great balance between simplicity, performance and customizability. Performance and battery life The Galaxy F62 is powered by the Exynos 9825 chipset that promises to deliver fast performance, rivalling its competitors or even exceeding them. It is paired with up to 8GB of memory and 128GB of storage. In my tests, I found that the Galaxy F62 delivers smooth performance in regular usage. There were no noticeable lags or stutters in apps, browsing the internet or using the camera. Even while playing games, the performance was smooth for the most part – but after extended sessions of gaming, the phone did heat up a bit, which is fairly normal for most phones. In terms of battery life, it has a massive 7,000mAh battery that refuses to die out in a single day. With normal usage, I could easily complete two days on a single charge, which is impressive no matter what. The downside of this big battery is the weight – at 218 grams, the Galaxy F62 can seem a bit heavy, but it’s easy to get adjusted once you use it for a while. Camera <div type="image" title="Samsung Galaxy F62" msid="81084437" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Samsung Galaxy F62&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The Galaxy F62 has four cameras on the back and one selfie snapper on the front. The rear cameras are a combination of a 64MP primary camera, a 12MP ultra wide angle camera and two 5MP shooters. The front has a 32MP selfie camera. <div type="image" title="Samsung Galaxy F62 daylight" msid="81084452" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Image captured in daylight conditions.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The phone focuses quickly in daylight as well as indoor lighting conditions. The colour reproduction is accurate and the photos have a good amount of detail. The built-in Scene Optimiser feature identifies the objects and optimizes the settings accordingly. <div type="image" title="Samsung Galaxy F62" msid="81084467" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Image captured using 1X and 2X zoom.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Verdict The Samsung Galaxy F62 is a strong contender for the crown as the best mid-range smartphone. It has been priced aggressively in a segment that is increasingly getting crowded. What helps the F62 set itself apart is the software, performance, battery life and arguably, even the cameras. The overall package that Samsung has delivered here means the Galaxy F62 is worth considering if you are looking for a phone under ₹25,000.

			IBM CEO Ginni Rometty
	
	



	In her keynote at MWC this morning, IBM CEO Virginia Rometty made it clear that the company sees Africa as a huge opportunity over the next decade. 

	What sets Africa apart from other markets, according to Rometty, is that its infrastructure was built with mobile in mind. Payments and communications are already built on top of <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/africas-technology-market-2013-2" target="_blank">a booming phone market and incomes continue to rise</a>, driving demand for better gadgets and services.

	That's why IBM is pushing for a bigger presence on the continent. It already has locations in 20 of the 54 countries in Africa, and last year opened the first of its 12 major research labs in the world in Nairobi, the capital and largest city of Kenya. Rometty herself visited the continent four times last year; a visit to the continent earlier this month was <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/africas-technology-market-2013-2" target="_blank">actually the first time the whole top brass had assembled outside New York</a> since she became the boss just over a year ago.

	In addition to pushing its mobile capabilities, IBM will also be deploying its Watson supercomputer in Africa, where it will be put to use in education and cervical cancer research.

	Rometty's statements mirror a common thread running through the presentations being given at this year's Mobile World Congress going on in Barcelona: the rising importance of mobile in low-income nations.

	Earlier this week, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/its-a-race-to-the-bottom-2014-2" target="_blank">people were talking</a> about the slew of phones coming in the $25 to $35 price range that will bring the versatility of the mobile Web to a price category dominated by feature (or "dumb") phones.

	Nokia, much to Microsoft's chagrin, also <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/nokia-x-microsoft-2014-2" target="_blank">unveiled three low-cost Android phones</a> built on top of Microsoft services for release in international markets.

	It's increasingly looking like Apple and Samsung own the high end of the smartphone market. With everybody else in the space pursuing the burgeoning low end, it'll be interesting to see what kinds of services IBM will be able to offer to an unusual but quickly growing market.

IBM Says Africa Will Be A Huge Growth Opportunity

I’m not a city guy. Growing up in the suburbs, some memories still stick. Baba’s office senior bought a swanky penthouse in the city. Cut to the housewarming party. The company MD arrives. Everybody stands up. I hear a ring. The MD takes out a black alien device. I remember reading the words ‘<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Blackberry">Blackberry</a>’. That’s the enduring image most 90s kids have – their rich dads, or richer neighborhood uncles using a device that doubled up as a weapon if you’re cornered in an alley. 
 
<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Blackberry">Blackberry</a>, you were the voluptuous diva of the 90s. A symbolic, if possible polite middle finger to announce one has arrived. The coolest features were ‘email’ and ‘camera’. Then the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=iPhone">iPhone</a> boomed, smartphones, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Android">Android</a>, and cut to now. The world went and got itself into a goddamn hurry. 
 
Your bullishness to have an enterprise focused OS proved fatal. When most brands jumped on the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Android">Android</a> bandwagon, you took your time. Today, the then leader Nokia’s dead, and it’s too late for you too. While you’ve pledged to keep the Priv secure, nobody cares while <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Apple">Apple</a>’s around. 
 
I repeat, there’s nothing wrong with you baby. You just ain’t the ‘cool crowd' anymore. Your forte, the QWERTY keypad is now a double-edged sword. It’s what makes the Priv special, and also a deal-breaker. 
 
The Priv is attractive (a bit fat though) and has a 5.4-inch quad HD display with Gorilla Glass 4. The display’s sharp, and the colors vibrant. The 18-megapixel Schneider-Kreuznach camera is fine, even though the 2-megapixel selfie camera sucks. 
 
Hardware isn't top class, but won't disappoint either. It’s a 64-bit Snapdragon 808 hexa-core system-on-chip (SoC). It handles hardware-intensive games and multi-tasking well, though the device will get a bit hot. The Priv's 3,410mAh battery may not be better than the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Samsung+Galaxy+Note+5">Samsung Galaxy Note 5</a> or <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Samsung+Galaxy+S6">Samsung Galaxy S6</a>, but we’ll let that pass too. 
 
In the age of vulgar specifications, ‘fine’ isn’t just fine anymore. You just ain’t got the booty to attract eyeballs. Every design is done to death, what ‘new’ could you possibly bring to the table. <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=LeEco">LeEco</a> sells metal body for Rs. 10,999, and fingerprint sensor wielding <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Coolpad">Coolpad</a> Note 3 Lite comes as cheap as Rs. 6,999. Also, these despos (slang for desperate individuals) are slashing prices left, right and center to get my attention. They make me feel special. At Rs. 62,000 you’re not a part of that rat race either darling. Why even try! 
 
Maybe you’ll find the rare suitor – one who’s uncompromisingly on his need for a physical keyboard, that security pedigree, and access to the full <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Android">Android</a> <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=App+Store">App Store</a>. Maybe it’s the same retired business honcho who’s been cribbing about typing on glass. But how many folks like that will you fish out! My friend Justin typed out his 7,000 words postgraduate dissertation on his <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=iPhone">iPhone</a>. 
 
It’s the world where everybody wants to swipe right to a night of boom boom (I meant shooting games). You ain’t getting any action buddy! 
 
People don’t base their buys on nostalgia. It’s cold and hard capitalism – ‘how much more can I get at a lesser price’, and everybody’s in on it. Don’t let anybody else tell you otherwise. Few romantics pay more on ‘design’ and ‘flexibility’, but they’re mostly sidelined as snobs and geeks anyway. 
 
Listen, I don’t want this to be bad breakup. You were my dream. Don’t ruin it for me. I’d love to love you, but I’m sorry. I’m joining the queue for the next Mi/Lenovo sale. It’s been good knowing you <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Blackberry">Blackberry</a>, but it’s time you move on. 
 
Hey, that slider really looks…something on you.
