Realme 15 Pro Plus India Launch: Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, 7,000 mAh Battery, ₹28,999 Starting Price I still remember standing in a small mobile shop in Connaught Place five years ago, holding my first Realme phone. The device was surprisingly snappy, yet affordable - an unusual combination at the time. It felt like Realme had cracked the code for Indian buyers seeking high performance without spending a fortune. Today, the launch of the Realme 15 Pro Plus promises to revisit that philosophy, but with a far more ambitious approach. This article evaluates whether Realme’s latest midrange flagship lives up to the hype, combining real-world hands-on impressions, local insights, and verified specifications. Power Under the Hood: Midrange Performance Redefined The Realme 15 Pro Plus is powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, while the standard Realme 15 comes with the MediaTek Dimensity 7300+ SoC. Both are built on efficient 4nm fabrication processes, promising higher performance and better th...
Motorola Edge 60 Pro Launch Confirmed: India Debut with 50MP Triple Camera
It was around 8:30 AM when I walked into a narrow mobile shop in Delhi’s Karol Bagh market, a place buzzing with the scent of fresh parathas and bootleg iPhone cases.
The shopkeeper, a wiry man in his 40s with a Motorola keychain dangling from his belt loop, looked up and grinned, “Bro new moto phone has finally arrivied - Edge 60 Pro. Dimensity 8350! Public showing alot of interest in it.”
What struck me wasn’t the excitement over the brand. It was who was excited.

In a world dominated by flashy Chinese brands and the relentless OnePlus vs Samsung tug-of-war, Motorola’s name rarely comes up first. But today, it had people waiting outside shuttered stores.

The phone offers a triple-camera system, OLED curved display, and 90W fast charging, all packed into a sleek frame under ₹35,000.

Real-World First Impressions
Several early users on Reddit India and local tech Telegram channels noted how cool the phone runs under load, especially while gaming.
One user shared a screen recording of Genshin Impact running on high settings - no throttling after 25 minutes. That’s unusual for this price segment.
Another noticeable factor? The 4500 nits peak brightness. Under direct Delhi sun, this display holds its own - even outperforming the Galaxy A55’s panel in side-by-side brightness tests.

There’s also HDR10+ support, and the screen curves just enough to look premium without constant palm touches triggering false inputs.

Key Differences
Battery and Charging: The 6000mAh capacity with 90W charging is one of the highest combinations in this price tier.
In real use, a full charge takes under 45 minutes, and battery life exceeds 1.5 days with moderate usage, even with the always-on display enabled.
Camera System: Motorola’s use of the Sony LYT-700C sensor for the main shooter and a proper 3x optical zoom lens sets it apart.

Most phones in this segment use digital zoom or hybrid setups, but Motorola is offering real glass here - literally.
One test photo shared in a local camera comparison group showed sharper zoom detail on a signboard 70 meters away, where both the Galaxy A55 and Nord 4 lost clarity.
Design & Build: While subjective, the Pantone-certified colors and curved screen give the Edge 60 Pro a premium-in-hand feel that is closer to the Vivo X90 than the Nord 4’s flat, boxy build.
Software Support and UI
The Edge 60 Pro ships with Android 14, and Motorola has publicly committed to 3 years of major OS updates and 4 years of security patches.
Importantly, Motorola’s UI is close to stock Android, with a few smart additions like Moto Secure, Moto Connect, and custom gestures.

No heavy skins, no bloatware, and no app spam - something rivals like iQOO and even Samsung can't always promise.
The device supports 11 5G bands, including n1, n3, n5, n8, n28, n78 - making it future-ready across Jio and Airtel’s coverage zones. Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, and NFC are also present.
Non-hyped, specs-first approach: Unlike some flashy reveals, Motorola let the product speak through early listings and silent rollouts before launch-day press coverage.
No AI-generated “AI features”: While others are stuffing phones with vague “AI camera” claims, Motorola focused on optics and battery, which users actually care about.
Retail-first momentum: Many local stores in Delhi, Mumbai, and Chennai already had demo units before the online release.

What Makes This Launch Different?
Here’s what sets this phone apart from other April 2025 launches:
Non-hyped, specs-first approach: Unlike some flashy reveals, Motorola let the product speak through early listings and silent rollouts before launch-day press coverage.
No AI-generated “AI features”: While others are stuffing phones with vague “AI camera” claims, Motorola focused on optics and battery, which users actually care about.
Retail-first momentum: Many local stores in Delhi, Mumbai, and Chennai already had demo units before the online release.
Early buyers from Croma shared receipts and unboxing videos before Flipkart even updated their listing.
No wireless charging, a feature still reserved for upper-premium Motorola models.
No official IP rating, although past Edge models had basic splash resistance.
The Dimensity 8350, while fast, isn’t as widely tested in Indian markets yet as Snapdragon’s counterparts.
If Motorola continues to ship stock units fast, avoids inventory gaps (an issue with past Edge devices), and keeps post-sale software updates timely, the Edge 60 Pro could be the strongest Motorola mid-ranger in years.
In a market currently fixated on camera gimmicks and AI buzzwords, this phone delivers on the basics that matter: display, battery, camera, performance.
It’s not perfect - but it feels like someone actually used it before designing it.
