Realme 6i Gaming Review Video

The Realme 6i has finally been launched in the Philippines and it’s the world’s first smartphone to sport the Helio G80 chipset which is a chipset that is focused on gaming and today, we’re gonna do a gaming review of the Realme 6i using Gamebench.

To give you an idea about the chipset, it is built on the 12nm process and it comes with Cortex-A75 cores that can go up to 2GHz, and then there are the six Cortex-A55 cores for gaming and for the GPU, there’s the ARM Mali-G52 graphics processor.

So we tried different games on the smartphone ranging from the not-so-demanding Mobile Legends: Bang Bang up to one of the graphically intensive games on smartphones — Black Desert Mobile.

For Mobile Legends: Bang bang, we were able to set up the game with HD Mode on, HFR Mode on and at high settings. While with Call of Duty: Mobile, the smartphone isn’t optimized yet but we do get here some favorable results and with PUBG, we were able to run the game at up to ultra framerates. While with Black Desert, we were able to run the game at the max settings possible. Check out our gaming review of the Realme 6i below:

Performance metrics were captured using GameBench Pro, the most accurate, enterprise testing tool in the industry. Check out the link to learn more: https://bit.ly/JamOnlineGamebench

RUMOR: Samsung Galaxy Fold Lite will be unveiled this July for $1099

Foldable smartphones are really expensive right now but according to Max Weinbach, we might see a more affordable foldable smartphone from Samsung very soon with the Samsung Galaxy Fold Lite. Basically, it’s the Samsung Galaxy Fold but with some changes in the hardware inside.

According to Max, The Samsung Galaxy Fold Lite will come in 4G with a smaller 256GB internal storage and it will come with mixed parts from 2018-2020. Aside from that, the smartphone will come with an updated Snapdragon 865 processor with no 5G support and the display will not have the ultra-thin glass like the Galaxy Z Flip. The smartphone will come in Mirror Black, and Mirror Purple too and it will be built on Aluminum and glass on the outside. The price is expected to be $1099 according to Max.

 

Ross Young of DSCC has backed Max’s claims and he says that the smartphone brand will announce the Galaxy Fold Special Edition soon in July with a starting price of $1099. The smartphone will also be limited to 55,000 units worldwide just to give way for clearing out the inventory for the Galaxy Fold 1.

This is actually good as the rumored pricing for this one is almost $900 cheaper than the starting price of the Samsung Galaxy Fold.

Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo Resumes Smartphone Manufacturing in India

The COVID-19 pandemic spares no industry as countries undergo nationwide lockdowns to prevent the spread of the virus. India on the other hand, starts to slowly lift its restrictions as the country transitions to “a new normal.” These actions forced manufacturers like Samsung, Oppo, and Xiaomi to suspend their smartphone production line but are slowly recovering as restrictions slowly lift.

We have received requisite permissions to restart production at our Noida factory. On Thursday, the factory started limited operations, which will be scaled up over a period of time. Employee safety and well-being remaining our absolute priority, we have ensured that all hygiene and social distancing measures are maintained at the premises, as per government guidelines

Samsung India issued a statement confirming its smartphone production in Noida has resumed albeit in a limited capacity. Xiaomi also confirmed that Foxconn, its manufacturing partner, has been approved to resume its operations in Andhra and Pradesh. Oppo also wants to resume operations in its Greater Noida factory. Vivo also confirmed that it resumed its factory operations but only at 30% production capacity.

Considering restrictions, and limited supply and manpower, we might see smartphone prices for newer models. The smartphone brands mentioned earlier are also cutting their smartphone camera lens orders for Q2 2020.
