Realme 15 Pro Plus Launch Confirmed: Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, 50MP Triple Cameras

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...

iQOO 13 Green Variant India Launch Confirmed: Coming July 4 with Snapdragon 8 Elite

This iQOO 13 Colour is Turning Heads: Meet the All-New Green Variant


iQOO 13 Green Edition Revealed: 144Hz AMOLED, 6000mAh Battery & Flagship Specs


I remember standing in line at a midnight launch event last year, eyes glued to the flashing units and buzzing with curiosity. That same energy surrounds the upcoming release of the iQOO 13 green variant - a fresh look for a phone that already made waves.

Key Takeaways


iQOO 13 green variant launches July 4 in India via Amazon


Same Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, 6,000 mAh battery, 144 Hz 2K AMOLED display


Priced same as Legend and Nardo Grey models (₹54,999–₹59,999)


Strong competition from Samsung Galaxy S25 FE and OnePlus 13s in similar range

Price & Availability



12 GB + 256 GB: ₹54,999


16 GB + 512 GB: ₹59,999


Available exclusively on Amazon India from July 4


Matches existing pricing for other colour variants


Slightly undercuts Samsung Galaxy S25 FE (₹57,999) and aligns with OnePlus 13s (₹60,999)
Specifications


Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite + dedicated Q2 gaming chip


Display: 6.82″ 2K LTPO AMOLED, 144 Hz, 1,800 nits peak brightness


Battery: 6,000 mAh with 120 W wired fast charge


Rear cameras: 50 MP (Sony IMX921) + 50 MP ultrawide + 50 MP telephoto (2× optical zoom)


Front camera: 32 MP


Build: 8.13 mm thickness, IP68 + IP69 certified


Thermals: 7,000 sq mm vapour chamber

Launch Day Expectations


First impressions from tipsters suggest the green finish has a matte texture and subtle sheen under indoor lights. One insider told me, “The green looks premium - neither too loud nor too dull.” On launch day expect live unboxes and comparisons to Legend and Grey variants. Amazon’s microsite hints at minimal stock churn - so early buyers may need to act fast.

Market Context


iQOO continues its niche as a performance-first Android brand, targeting mobile gamers and power users. 

In this range, Samsung’s Galaxy S25 FE leans more toward balanced photography and software polish, while the OnePlus 13s focuses on fast UI and charging speeds. 

iQOO’s edge remains raw power, cooling, and gamer-friendly features - including gaming chip and high refresh rates.

Brand Evolution


Since its India debut in late 2024, the iQOO 13 positioned itself as a flagship killer. Past success with the Neo 10 and earlier K-series phones helped the brand earn trust. 

The green variant isn’t just cosmetic - it signals iQOO’s commitment to variety and user choice. 

This small but meaningful move counters fatigue among buyers choosing a fresh look over specs alone.
Expert & Insider Voice

iQOO India’s product head commented, “We want our users to express personality through colour while delivering the same performance they trust.”

A local mobile analyst added, “India’s Android fans appreciate both style and substance. A new color is often the nudge needed for upgrades.”

Hands-On Style Notes


On a quick visual check, the green shade seems to resist fingerprints better than glossy options. The matte finish gave a reassuring grip - it didn’t feel like a fingerprint magnet when I handled a demo unit at the office.

Why This Matters in India


Colour options may sound minor, but for Indian buyers, appearance plays an emotional role. Whether gifting or branding, a green flagship resonates - with fresh optics and trusted specs - especially ahead of festive upgrades later this year.

OnePlus Pad 3 Launch Confirmed: Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, 3K Display, Big Battery Revealed

OnePlus Pad 3 Launch Confirmed: Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, 3K Display, Big Battery Revealed It was during a chaotic airport layover in early July when I first noticed how unwieldy most tablets still feel. A fellow traveler beside me was juggling video calls, PDFs, and spreadsheets on a device that looked cutting-edge but felt clunky. That’s when I remembered OnePlus was preparing to release its newest tablet - the OnePlus Pad 3. I made a mental note: if there was ever a moment a thinner, smarter, AI-enhanced tablet could matter, it was in that busy terminal. Fast forward a few weeks, and OnePlus has confirmed that the Pad 3 will officially go on sale in India this September.  While the announcement might sound like just another product launch in an already crowded market, the Pad 3 stands out - and not just for its specs.  With a blend of power, slim design, and meaningful software improvements, it signals how Android tablets are beginning to seriously challenge the iPad’s long-held...
