Oppo Find X
July 4, 2018
The Find X was launched a few weeks ago and India should be among the first batch of countries to obtain it. The Find X has a beautiful glass body with a motorized camera module. The front has a curved Amoled screen of 6.4 inches (without notch), which gives it a 93% screento-body ratio. Inside is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, 8GB of RAM, 128/256GB of storage and a 3,730mAh battery. The motorized camera module hides a 16MP + 20MP dual rear camera and a 25MP front camera. It also has a 3D face recognition function (with infrared emitters, similar to the iPhone X) and a VOOC fast charge support. Other features include two SIM slots, USB Type-C and Android 8.1.
Expected Price: Rs 60,000 and over

Asus Zenfone 5Z
July 4, 2018
The Zenfone 5Z will be the second smartphone available in India with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor. It features an IPS screen of 6.2 inches in 19: 9 format with a resolution of 2246 x 1080 pixels. The phone should be launched with 6 / 8GB RAM and 64/128 / 256GB storage options. In the camera department, it has a dual camera configuration of 12MP + 8MP with OIS on the back and an 8MP front camera. Other features include a 3300mAh battery with fast support, a dual SIM hybrid slot, expandable storage, a rear fingerprint scanner, a USB C port and Android 8.0 with face unlocking. Asus seems ready to take OnePlus and we are therefore expecting them to lower OnePlus prices, making it one of the cheapest Snapdragon 845 phones on the market.
Price: Rs 29,999
