    Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro Vs Honor 9N Vs Asus Zenfone Max Pro

    Xiaomi launched the Redmi 6 Pro in India today. The company claims that the device offers the best specifications in its price bracket. We decided to put this to the test, so here’s a comparison between the Redmi 6 Pro, the Honor 9N and the Asus Zenfone Max Pro. For the review, we are comparing the base models of all the three devices.

    Design & Display:

    In terms of design, the three devices are a bit different. The Redmi 6 Pro and Honor 9N have a display notch on their 5.84 inch screens. The Asus Zenfone Max Pro has a 5.99 inch screen, without a notch.

    The Redmi 6 Pro and Honor 9N have a 19:9 ratio display with a resolution of 2280 x 1080 pixels. The Asus Zenfone Max Pro has a 18:9 aspect ratio with 2160 x 1080 pixels. The Zenfone Max Pro lags behind in pixel density with 403 ppi while the other two devices have a pixel density of 432 ppi.

    Battery & Storage:

    Zenfone Max Pro

    The Zenfone Max Pro is clearly the winner with a massive 5000 mAh battery. The Redmi 6 Pro follows with a 4000 mAh battery while the Honor 9N has a 3000 mAh battery. In terms of storage, both the Zenfone Max Pro and Redmi 6 Pro have 32 GB of storage while the Honor 9N has 64 GB of storage. The Redmi 6 Pro and Honor 9N have expandable storage up to 256 GB.

  • Valentine’s Day Offer: OnePlus 5T Lava Red Available At A Discounted Price

    Valentine’s Day Offer: OnePlus 5T Lava Red Available At A Discounted Price

    OnePlus launched the OnePlus 5T Lava Red in India in late-January. It was sold via a flash sale on Amazon and went out of stock pretty quick. However, the demand for the Lava Red OnePlus 5T has made the company restock the Indian shores with the device. As a part of Valentine’s Day offer, the Lava Red OnePlus 5T is back in sale via Amazon, OnePlus.com and OnePlus Experience Stores.

    [amazon_link asins=’B0756ZFXVB’ template=’ProductAd’ store=’igyaan-21′ marketplace=’IN’ link_id=’0eca23c2-0bfd-11e8-8c6d-576e87b479c7′]

    It is priced at Rs. 37999 as it is only available in the 8GB RAM variant. The Valentine’s Day offer will run until the 14th of February and has a few good deals for prospective buyers. People who buy the Lava Red OnePlus 5T from Amazon can get an instant discount of up to Rs. 1,500 by using an SBI credit card. They will also be eligible for 3 months of zero-interest EMIs.

    People who buy the OnePlus 5T Lava Red from the OnePlus Experience Stores or OnePlus.com will get a cashback of Rs. 1500. OnePlus has also announced a new referral program for users who bought either the OnePlus 5 or the OnePlus 5T before the 30th of January. All such eligible customers will get two referral codes via email. Using these codes, if anyone purchases the OnePlus 5T, both the referrer and the new buyer will get a warranty extension of up to three months each. The company is also offering the first 500 successful referrers and referees a pair of Bullet V2 earphones each.

    OnePlus 5T Lava Red First Impressions

    The Lava Red OnePlus 5T looks and feels exactly the same as the Midnight Black variant except it is red in colour. The smartphone has the same matte finish on the back which makes it a bit slippery to hold but, otherwise it’s a very sturdy phone. Depending on which side you’re on, you’ll be happy or sad to know that OnePlus has retained the black colour for the front of the smartphone, something that a lot of people wanted in the Product Red iPhone 7 and 7 Plus.

    The power button, volume rockers and the fingerprint sensor are also red in colour with the black OnePlus logo providing a bit of contrast on the back. There is a small camera bump on the back which means that the OnePlus 5T doesn’t lay flat on a surface which may bug a few people while others won’t even notice it. The headphone jack, USB C port and the single bottom firing speaker reside on the bottom of the smartphone.

    Are you buying a new Lava Red OnePlus 5T this Valentine’s Day?

    Apple iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, MacBook Air On Discount During Flipkart’s Apple Week Sale

    Despite the recent controversy, there is no denying that Apple iPhones age very well and you won’t have to worry about Apple’s software tweaks kicking in at least a couple of years after you buy a new iPhone. With great discounts on iPhone 6s all the way up to iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, this might be the ideal time to upgrade from an older smartphone. Also, the MacBook Air is available at a great discount as well.

    MacBook Air Core i5 5th Gen Processor

    The Apple MacBook Air is ideal for people who want to be a part of the Apple ecosystem but, do not need the power of a MacBook Pro.

  • Top 5 Shows On Netflix You Should Watch This Weekend

    Top 5 Shows On Netflix You Should Watch This Weekend

    Netflix India still doesn’t stream Friends yet which might be called an abomination by a few. But, Netflix has recently added some amazing shows to its repertoire while one of the most famous TV series ever released its new season. So, if your plan for the weekend is to Netflix and chill, then these five shows need to be on your list:

    Dark

    If watching Narcos was tough with all the Spanish being thrown around, then Dark can cause another level of confusion for us non-German speaking peoplem, if we don’t pay attention that is. The first-ever German language Netflix original has elements of Stranger Things and Twin Peaks but, has its own twists to make it a brilliant little series. The show has everything from time travel to corporate conspiracy set in a small town of Winden, Germany. The first season has 10 episodes and Netflix has already announced that the show will return for a second season. Without giving much away about the show, it follows the lives of people of a small town in Germany and the secrets surrounding a nuclear plant. Secrets start unravelling when kids from around the town start disappearing. The series has a supernatural angle but, tries to justify the events through science.

    Black Mirror

    This British black comedy gained mainstream attention when Netflix bought the rights after its second season. The dystopian thriller is an analogy and the fourth season consists of six episodes. The show examines modern society, particularly with regard to the unanticipated consequences of new technologies. Even though it is considered to be a comedy and satire, there are a few episodes of Black Mirror where it is tough to laugh at something which might be true in the coming years. The fourth season of the show along with the previous seasons is streaming on Netflix right now.

    Mindhunter

    Sometimes, it is hard to fathom that what you’re watching is based on real events that happened to real people. Mindhunter takes you through a similar journey. The series follows two FBI detectives who travel from city to city interviewing convicted serial killers to build a profile of a serial killers. It is a fascinating yet sometimes gut-wrenching story of how the term “serial killer” was coined. Excellent performances and great cinematography combined with a satisfying story arch make the Mindhunter an absolutely brilliant series. It will be surprising if Mindhunter doesn’t bag a few awards this year.

    Manhunt: Unabomber

    Another series based on real events, Manhunt: Unabomber has received a lot of media attention for apparently fictionalising the events that lead to the capture of the infamous Unabomber. Agent Jim Fitzgerald is a new profiler on the FBI block and immediately becomes an integral part of the country’s longest and costliest manhunt till now. It is a fascinating deep dive into the trials and tribulations of a law enforcement officer looking for the most famous terrorist the country had ever known until that point. With great actors like Paul Bettany and Chris Noh, the series is a visual and mental treat for the lovers of a good police drama.

    The Sinner

    There have been numerous TV series and movies that chronicle a murder investigation. But, what leads to a murder? What is going on inside the head of a person while committing the crime? The Sinner, a gripping mini-series tries to unravel just that. The series follows the aftermath of a murder on the beach in a small town as the detective in charge tries to find the reason behind the main character’s abrupt actions. The main character, Cora Tannetti is played Jessica Beil who is also the executive producer of the show delivers an outstanding performance.

  • Honor View10 Vs The Competition

    Honor View10 Vs The Competition

    Huawei’s sub-brand Honor globally launched the Honor View10 at an event in London on the 5th of December. At the time of the launch, the View10 was priced at 499 Euros which roughly translates to about Rs. 38000 in India but, considering the competitive pricing of the Honor 7X, it won’t be surprising if the Honor View10 is priced close to the 30K mark.

    Irrespective of its Indian pricing, the View10 will enter the sub-40K category of flagship devices where the likes of the OnePlus 5T and Nokia 8 already exist. Just like the other two devices, the Honor View10 has a flagship chipset, a dual-camera setup and a great display to go with it. So, how does it stack up against the other sub-40K flagship devices? Let’s find out:

    It will be interesting to see how Honor prices the Honor View10 considering the Indian market is extremely price-sensitive. With strong competition from the OnePlus 5T and Nokia 8, the Honor View10 will have an uphill task to sway the consumers towards the new entrant rather than the OnePlus 5T or even the Nokia 8.

New features like wireless charging, a bezel-less display and the much talked-about Face ID make the iPhone X one of the most interesting iPhones launched in the recent years.

    Let’s check out the top accessories that you can buy to compliment your shiny new Apple iPhone X:

    Rhinoshield Screen Protector

    With wireless charging, comes an all glass design. The glass used on the iPhone X is the hardest glass Apple has ever used on a smartphone but, if you are clumsy and a case doesn’t cut it for you then the Rhinoshield screen protector is just what you need. You can buy a protector for the back of the phone as well and give your new iPhone X an all-round protection from your clumsy hands.

    Anker PowerTouch 10 Wireless Charger

    Apple finally introduced wireless charging in its iPhone lineup this year. This means that if you have bought an iPhone X, you will definitely buy a wireless charger as well. Fret not, because the Anker PowerTouch 10 is the ideal wireless charger in India. It has a nice sturdy built and comes in a nice matte black colour. It supports 10V output so when Apple enables fast wireless charging on the iPhone X, you won’t have to look for another one.

    SanDisk iXpand

    The iPhones have never had expandable storage. There are people still, who own an iPhone with 16GB of onboard storage and continue to live like that. If you had saved up for the iPhone X but, spending over a lakh on a phone was not ideal and you went for the 64GB variant instead, then the SanDisk iXpand is the best tool you can buy. It connects to your iPhone via the lightning port and you can store images, songs, movies and a host of other things in this little expandable storage tool and keep your iPhone X free for those 4K 60fps videos.
