Deals: OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite, Galaxy Unpacked pre-reservations, Redmi 13 5G coming soon – GSMArena.com news

29 June 2024

Last week, we looked at several Nord models, including the Nord 3, which was down to ₹20,000. Amazon is out of stock now though. Instead, have a look at the new OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite at the same price. Well, actually a bit lower if you have Amazon Prime – subscribers get an additional ₹1,000 discount. Keep in mind that 12 months of Prime cost ₹1,500, so it will almost pay for itself.

Samsung officially set the date for the next Galaxy Unpacked event on July 10. You can already pre-reserve a unit with a refundable ₹2,000 deposit. If you do, you’re in for rewards up to ₹7,000. The offer is for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6, but new Galaxy Buds and Galaxy Watches will be part of the offer too.

Actually, there is a separate pre-reservation page for the new Galaxy Buds, which promises benefits of up to ₹2,300. The phones, the buds and the watches are shown only as sketches for now.

The Z Flip6 will be preempted by the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra. That is coming on July 4. There isn’t much to do now, but you can check out the landing page for a look at the phone’s highlight features.

Xiaomi has been teasing the Redmi 13 5G for a while now and it will work with Amazon to release it on July 9. Check out the landing page linked below. The phone will be powered by the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 and a 5,030mAh battery with 33W fast charging. It will have glass on both the front and the back and, speaking of the back, the phone will boast a 108MP camera.

You can also have a look at the Redmi 12 5G from last year. It uses the same SD 4 Gen 2 chip and has a 5,000mAh battery with slower 18W charging. Also, the main camera has only 50MP resolution. The 2023 model does also have glass on the front and back.

The Redmi Note 13 Pro is another device from 2023, but Xiaomi just released a bold, new Scarlet Red colorway, which looks pretty cool.

Moving up to this year, the Poco X6 is a 5G phone with a more powerful Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset and a premium 6.67” display with 12-bit colors (1220p+ resolution, 120Hz). The 64+8+2MP camera is decidedly less premium, but the 5,100mAh battery supports 67W charging.

The Oppo F27 Pro+ launched last week. It uses a Dimensity 7050 for its 5G connectivity and has an even more basic 64+2MP camera. The 6.7” 10-bit display is just large, but it’s not as sharp with its 1080p+ resolution (the refresh rate is the same at 120Hz). The battery is comparable – 5,000mAh capacity and 67W charging. If you’re wondering why it’s so pricey, the F27 Pro+ has a stylish design. It is also is quite rugged with a rare IP69 rating and it has been drop tested onto concrete from 1.8m.

If you want to get a 5G phone on the cheap, the Poco M6 Pro 5G is under ₹10,000 if you collect the ₹500 voucher. It has a roomy 6.79” IPS LCD (1080p+, 90Hz) and the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chip, which is proving to be quite popular. At this price, the 50+2MP camera setup doesn’t come as a surprise, nor does the 5,000mAh battery with 18W charging. At least you get reasonably fast UFS 2.2 storage and a microSD slot, plus a 3.5mm headphone jack and there is even an IP53 rating. It’s not much, but this phone is about as cheap as 5G phones come.
