Oppo Find N Review: What’s special about it?
Although foldable android smartphones are not as prevalent as had been anticipated in 2021, they can be more available in 2022. Recently, Oppo has joined the folding smartphone market with the Oppo Find N, which rivals Samsung's formidable Z Fold series. Oppo has launched this phone on 17th December 2021. In this brief analysis, this article will examine the features of the folding smartphone.
Key Features of Oppo Find N
Design
When the OPPO Find N is closed, it is a very small smartphone. The dimensions are comparable to those of an iPhone 13 mini or something comparable. Such a "sandwich" is quite substantial in thickness. The external display's diagonal dimension is "only" 5.49 inches. Which is really rather small by contemporary standards. The remainder of the front panel is familiar: the front camera is housed in a circular hole, and the top section has a tiny speaker slot.
When opened, the device reveals a 7.1-inch tablet. The aspect ratio is very large: 8.4:9. Indeed, the screen seems to be virtually square in shape. The frames are discernible, which isn't necessarily a bad thing when using the device as a tablet. Additionally, there is a front camera on the inside. It is positioned in the hole in the screen's top-left corner.

The bezel around the screen does not extend excessively above it. It serves its protective purpose and does not obstruct the user's ability to utilize the display comfortably.
Most significantly, OPPO eliminated the fold nearly entirely. Even when seen from an angle, it is almost hard to detect any unevenness. Only tactilely can you detect the tiniest amount. This is quite amazing on an aesthetic and technical level.
The second critical design element is that there is no space between the smartphone's halves when folded. The components fit snugly together, which reduces dust and filth, among other benefits. The frame is entirely made of metal. Stereo speakers, USB Type-C, a microphone, and a tray are located on the bottom edge.

Display
To begin, the OPPO Find N has a foldable internal screen with a 7.1-inch AMOLED display. Samsung is a manufacturer. The resolution is 1920x1792, the aspect ratio is 9:8, and the pixel density is 370 pixels per inch. Manual brightness of 500 cd / m2 and a peak brightness of 1000 cd / m2 is predicted; HDR support is also included. Manual brightness of 500 cd / m2 and a peak brightness of 1000 cd / m2 is predicted;
HDR support is also included. Adaptive refresh rates of 1-120 Hz are supported by the display. Everything is familiar in the display settings: dark theme, scale, font, eye protection, and color modes, from the unfamiliar - a collection of enhancements for the Ultra Vision Engine.
There are no visual concerns about the screen, both in terms of brightness and image quality. According to hardware tests, the maximum brightness in Bright mode is 468.96 cd/m2, and the color gamut is substantially broader than sRGB. Due to a minor oversupply of blue, the color rendering somewhat shifts to the frigid hues.

The external camera is an AMOLED display with a diagonal of 5.49-inches and a resolution of 1972x988p, with a pixel density of 402 pixels per inch. The brightness settings stated are identical to those on the internal display. However, there is one disadvantage: the external display's refresh rate is 60 Hz. This is the only criticism. Everything else is satisfactory.
Rear Cameras
There are a total of five cameras on board, all of which function well in the daytime. The triple rear camera arrangement is led by a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 main sensor equipped with optical image stabilization. The main camera is supported by a 16-megapixel sensor and an ultrawide lens, while the secondary camera is backed by a 13-megapixel sensor and a telephoto lens with a 3x optical zoom. In the daytime, all three cameras create clean images, and night photography is similarly impressive. However, like with any smartphone, certain information may be lost.
Additionally, the cameras recorded natural colors, which may not be to everyone's taste. However, if the AI option is activated, you may get great saturation and contrast, resulting in an artificially edited finish. Additionally, there are other camera options to experiment with.

Front Camera
The two 32-megapixel front cameras are a little unimpressive due to their apparent lack of OIS functionality. In such a situation, the majority of photographs will be flat and devoid of detail, similar to the Oppo Find X3 phone. This might be why Oppo made few mentions of the camera sensors since the foldable smartphone is primarily focused on productivity.
Performance and Software
The Oppo Find N is powered by the same Snapdragon 888 processor as the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Due to the fact that this is a China-specific device, the phone does not come pre-loaded with Google or Meta applications.
This also means that we were unable to evaluate the smartphone's software to its full potential since many applications have yet to be optimized for this size factor. Additionally, the phone operates on Android 11-based ColorOS 12, although the company has stated that it will eventually get Android 12-based ColorOS.

For this review, users will get the top-of-the-line 12GB RAM + 512GB variant. As with previous Oppo phones, the Oppo Find N offers RAM expansion technology, which enlarges the RAM capacity by using idle ROM.
However, the Snapdragon 888 processor beneath the hood remains a strong one on the market, and the phone is still capable of handling work and gaming applications. Additionally, I appreciated popular games such as Asphalt 9 and Fruit Ninja that used the 8.4:9 aspect ratio. Needless to say, both applications functioned flawlessly and showed no evidence of overheating.
Battery and Charging
Without a strong battery, every productivity-oriented smartphone is incomplete. The Oppo Find N has a 4500mAh battery, which is somewhat larger than the Galaxy Z Fold 3's 4400mAh battery. While we do receive an all-day battery, bear in mind that we were unable to test the phone's boundaries due to the fact that this is a China-specific device.

Users will also get 33W SuperVOOC cable charging support, which is promised to charge the battery to 50% capacity in half an hour. It takes around 80 minutes for the phone to reach full battery. Additionally, we get support for wireless and reverse wireless charging.
Price of OPPO Find N in Bangladesh
The phone has not yet been officially launched in Bangladesh. The 8GB 256GB model is priced at BDT 1,03,311 in the China. The USD to BDT exchange rate is 1 CNY = 13.42 BDT in this case.
Conclusion
Oppo's Find N demonstrates that there are several approaches to the book-style foldable. Without turning to a behemoth of a phone, you may have a large screen on the inside and a usable screen on the outside.

It's perhaps more practical in that regard than the Galaxy Z Fold 3, which has a far larger aspect ratio and a skinnier display on the exterior.
Even at first glance, we can see that it is not ideal, but it is not far off. Its primary disadvantage is that it will be unavailable outside of China. However, if this serves as a prototype for future folding smartphones from OnePlus, Oppo, and Realme, the future of the flexible phone industry seems quite bright.

Why are Smartphone Makers Increasing Prices?
In 2021, the worldwide chipset scarcity has had a significant effect, as several OEMs failed to satisfy demand due to the consequences of the epidemic. However, this issue has the potential to worsen the situation, particularly for Smartphone consumers. According to recent research, when manufacturing expenses will climb next year, the price of chipsets, and hence smartphones, might rise even more. Let's dig out the reasons why the price of smartphones will increase in 2022?
3 Reasons Why Smartphone Makers are Increasing Prices
There are many reasons why manufacturers can increase prices for their phones. According to the market movement, the following reasons are the prime factors that are mainly pulling the strings.
Global Shortage for the Supply of Smartphone Components
The smartphone market has been expanding day by day. The demand and shipments are likely to increase more in 2022. The price ranges of smartphone components like memory and chipsets are rising due to their ongoing scarcity.
Read Best Camera Phones Released in 2021
There are significant limits of chipsets, posing a problem in the budget-friendly section of the market. The worldwide chip shortage still has not had an effect on the smartphone segment since the demand-supply balance has been reached. This may alter in the following quarters, resulting in a rise in the worldwide average price of cellphones.
Now the smartphone producers have to decide their next steps whether they want to absorb the expense or push it off to their customers. The expense seems to have been passed on to customers by different brands. The majority of the price increases will affect the entry-level or budget segments.

Smartphone Components Price Hike
Earlier this year, experts have cautioned about the rise in smartphone pricing. Aside from the scarcity of 4G CPUs, the cost of components such as charting adapters, motherboard components, memory chipsets, and others has risen. This price rise has resulted in a minimum of a 10% increase in the expenses of manufacturing cellophane, which will ultimately reach the end-user.
Xiaomi President Xang Wiang issued a similar warning in March. He remarked that the corporation will endeavor to reduce expenses to a certain extent but that anything beyond that would be passed on to customers. Because the margins on low-cost phones are so small, they suffer the most.

The Advent of the 5G Technology
The cost of smartphones is projected to grow further as many nations are adopting 5G- networks and supportive phones are widespread. With people eager to shift to 5G-enabled handsets, there will be an increase in demand for all these smartphones.
Though the world has seen the influx of affordable 5G handsets, the technology isn't yet accessible in many countries, and the pricing is exorbitant. When 5G will be available throughout the world, there will be greater demand for supportive phones, and consumers will have to pay more for them.

Conclusion
The epidemic has had a detrimental effect on supply chains in general, with chips being especially heavily struck. Manufacturers are doing their best to cope up with the situation, but chip scarcity is a serious impediment right now.

Walton Primo GH10 Full Review with Price in Bangladesh
The Walton Primo GH10 has been unveiled, a much-anticipated mid-range smartphone. It is popular among users in the low-cost smartphone market because of its inexpensive characteristics and features. On October 6, the phone was launched in India. It has been a hit among phone fans, especially those searching for a good affordable phone, since its first introduction. Let's have a look at the features and capabilities of the Walton Primo GH10.
Key Features of Walton Primo GH10
Design
The Walton Primo GH10 sports a high-end luxury design while maintaining a comparable appearance to other Walton series phones.
The back and frame of the Primo GH10 are both made of plastic. For a flat finish, just a little finger staining may appear on the back. The phone is 165.1 mm x 67.3 mm x 9.7 mm in size and weighs just 211 g. As a consequence, the Walton phone is a tad on the heavy side. Nonetheless, it is comfortable to hold and operate. Matte Black, Royal Blue, and Emerald Green are the three colors available for the phone.

On the right, you'll find volume controls and a side-mounted quick fingerprint scanner. On the bottom, there is a 3.5mm audio connector. There's a USB Type-C connection, as well as a loudspeaker and a speaker.
Display
The Walton Primo GH10 has a 6.52-inch IPS INCELL display with 2.5D Curved Glass. It features a screen resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels, a maximum level of 16M color rasterizing, a 20:9 aspect ratio, and a pixel density of 395 pixels per inch. The display has HD+ technology, which improves the picture quality on the screen.
The display's color representation capabilities and viewing angles are adequate for a normal viewing experience. Typing and reading may be challenging for users. On services like Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Prime, users may view movies in Full HD. The front of the phone is protected with Panda glass.

Rear Cameras
The Primo GH10 has opted to provide more than the minimal configuration accessible at this price range in terms of cameras. On the triple camera panel, users will find an 8MP wide, 0.3MP depth, and 0.3MP macro lens.
A 2MP depth sensor, on the other hand, might be more useful. Some of the phone's fundamental features are Face Detection, BSI, Digital Zoom, 5P lens, Self-timer, Touch Focus, Volume Capture, and Smile Shutter. The main camera will be able to capture video at a maximum resolution of 1920x1080p at 30 frames per second.
The daylight images are fantastic, with vibrant colors and a well-balanced tone. The features of the foliage and plants may seem a little hazy at times. There is a setting that allows users to boost the saturation of the image. It would appeal to those who like vibrant hues.

The dedicated 8MP lens generates photographs with a lot of noise that is good in quality.
The camera provides noisy photos with smeared characteristics in low-light environments. When the night mode is on, the lenses' exposure level is increased to some amount. When shooting images in the night mode, a loud impression and broken details show.
Front Camera
In a low-end phone, a 5MP lens is justified. The selfie camera takes beautiful self-portraits in good lighting, but it's nothing out of the ordinary. As a result, selfie lovers will be happy with the Walton Primo GH10. The photographs are well-presented and detailed. In portrait mode, the camera performs well. Users may capture 720p video at 30 frames per second with its front camera.

Performance, Software, and Skin
The Primo GH10 is equipped with a 1.6GHz Octa-Core ARM Cortex-A55 CPU. Overall, it is promising and delivers a benefit for this relatively low-cost phone. It doesn't have any difficulties with touch responsiveness or latency, as the previous non-Pro model had.
The GH10 has a limited capacity to run games. High-definition games such as Asphalt 9, PUBG, and Call of Duty don't run without obvious overheating or slowness. The PowerVR Rogue GE8322 is used to support the octa-core CPU.
The phone runs Android 11, which has all of the same capabilities as the conventional Android skin, but with a few extra features.
Read Vivo iQOO Z5 Review: What does it offer?
Battery and Charging
The Primo GH10 is equipped with a long-lasting 4,000mAh High Capacity Li-Polymer Battery. Even with half the battery capacity, users will get a full day of battery life with moderate use. The battery will not be depleted by a whole day of intense play. The phone will be ready to use for a whole day if you charge it overnight.
Price in Bangladesh
The Walton Primo GH10 is available for BDT 7,599 in Bangladesh and comes with 32GB of storage and 2GB of RAM. The storage is expandable to up to 128GB by using a micro-SD card.
Bottom Line
The Walton Primo GH10 is a capable and efficient smartphone that shines in certain areas while falling short in others. It seems to be a conventional phone, but appearances don't often tell the whole story. The ARM Cortex- A55 is a solid option for consumers who seek performance, particularly at this price range. Other rivals may give a bit more bang for your buck. Aside from that, the 8MP camera system isn't enough to set it apart from other phones in the same price range. However, considering the Primo GH10's extensive features, the price seems to be fairly reasonable.

Xiaomi Redmi 10 Prime Review: Is it worth it?
Xiaomi's latest smartphone, the Redmi 10 Prime, is part of a highly desired series of cheap and mid-range smartphones. Nowadays, people hardly make a list of the top budget or mid-range smartphones without at least one Redmi handset. Naturally, expectations and demand for the Redmi 10 Prime have been raised after its first release on 7th September 2021 in India. But as much as can be foretold, the experience with it won't leave anyone in awe. Having said that, the Redmi 10 Prime offers certain points where it makes a compelling choice to smartphone consumers.
Xiaomi Redmi 10 Prime Full Review
Design
Xiaomi has maintained the design language introduced with the Redmi Note 10 series. This design adds to the Redmi 10 Prime a recognizable appearance. Weighing about 192g, the smartphone has a large body (161.2 x 75.6 x 9.6 mm dimension) with visible bezels on all sides.
Read Xiaomi 11T Pro Review: What’s Special About It?
A punch-hole for the selfie camera is located in the center of the display, towards the top. The frame is constructed of plastic and is contoured to make the gadget easier to grasp. The rear panel is also composed of plastic. When placed on a flat surface, the lens module containing four cameras protrudes slightly, causing the gadget to rock.
The phone has a fingerprint scanner built into the power button at the right. The volume controls are located above it. The left side is entirely devoted to the SIM tray. As with the Redmi 9 Prime, the frame's top and bottom have been kept flat. The top has a 3.5mm audio socket, an IR emitter, and two speaker holes, while the bottom features a USB Type-C connector, main microphone, and loudspeaker.

Display
Xiaomi Redmi 10 Prime’s 6.5-inch full HD+ display is powered by an LCD screen featuring 1080 x 2400 pixels resolutions, 20:9 ratio, and ~405 PPI density. It is adequate for regular applications. For light users, the 90Hz refresh rate will make the phone seem more premium, which makes a big difference in the cheap smartphone market.
The display is nice to look at and provides vibrant colors with no noticeable oversaturation. Additionally, it provides adequate color fidelity, but there is a small color shift at acute angles — this is particularly noticeable when viewing darker material.

While the touch responsiveness is excellent, the Redmi 10 Prime's adaptive brightness is not the greatest in the industry. In this situation, we suggest that you change your brightness manually. However, the auto-adapting refresh rate works well, and the display is one of the finest aspects of this phone. Its display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3.
Rear Cameras
The Redmi 10 Prime has a quad-camera system with the main camera of 50mp (f/1.8), an ultra-wide-angle camera of 8mp (f/2.2), a macro camera of 2mp (f/2.4), and a depth sensor of 2mp (f/2.4). The camera application is almost identical to the ancestor redmi 10 phone. There are easy toggles for both HDR and AI, and a Pro mode provides full control over settings.

Photos taken in the daytime come out quite well with average detail. Additionally, the frames' borders were somewhat blurry. While the 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera, featuring a 120-degree field-of-view, allows for a larger frame, users will find the output to be much worse in quality than the main sensor. Additionally, the output exhibited some edge distortion.
Close-up pictures showed excellent clarity, and the AI can be fast to identify where the smartphone is pointing. The colors are pretty realistic, and the phone is capable of distinguishing between the subject and the backdrop to create a sense of depth. Portrait pictures feature excellent edge recognition, and the phone is capable of successfully blurring the backdrop.
The video recording capacity for the rear cameras is 1080p at 30fps.
Read Samsung Galaxy F22 Review: What does it Offer?
Front Camera
Xiaomi has used an 8mp (f/2.0) lens as the front camera. Selfies shot with the front camera come great in the daytime. Additionally, the output seems to have been sharpened, with blacks forcefully increased.
Portrait pictures show excellent edge recognition, and in the daytime, the phone produces an acceptable amount of background blur. Selfies taken in low light beneath a street lighting perform poorly, but those taken with a stronger light source nearby performs well.
Read: Xiaomi Redmi 9 Review: Is It Offering the Best Value for Money?
The selfie camera captures video at a maximum resolution of 1080p@30fps. While filming in the daytime or at night, the footage was not properly stabilized.
Performance
The Redmi 10 Prime's MediaTek Helio G88 (12nm) processor is not quite a performance beast. Its Octa-core CPU is built with two Cortex-A75 cores featuring 2.0 GHz clock speed combined with six numbers of Cortex-A55 cores with 1.8 GHz clock speed at maximum. The graphic unit is enriched with Mali-G52 MC2 GPU.
This phone is available in two variants: 64GB by 4GB RAM, 128GB by 6GB RAM. Here eMMC 5.1 data transfer technology has been applied which is a pity in the era of UFS technology.

After booting, the phone takes some time to achieve a condition of smooth operation. The users might face noticeable stutters when they open or use five or six applications at a time. Therefore, for heavy users, purchasing the 6GB RAM version would be the best option. The top variant's overall performance is very smooth.
Despite the phone's 90Hz display, gaming performance lacks fluidity compared to the other devices with higher processing capabilities. To be fair, games on the Redmi 10 Prime are not completely unplayable, but they lack the fluidity seen on the finest mid-range phones.

Software and Charging
The Redmi 10 Prime is powered by MIUI 12.5, one of the most popular and modified interfaces of Android 11 available today. Xiaomi has recently made a few of its bloatware removable. But even so, it is clear how Xiaomi's version of Android is distinct from standard Android and has both positive and negative aspects.
The Redmi 10 Prime's battery life is excellent, lasting a full day with heavier-than-average use for its huge 6000mAh battery. However, once run out, the phone takes a long time to be refilled than most other phones. With a similar but slightly shorter battery life, the Realme Narzo 30 charges in approximately half the time.

Users should charge 10 Prime overnight to ensure that it is fully charged for the next day or blame its 18W charging system.
Price in Bangladesh
The Redmi 10 Prime is not officially available in Bangladesh yet. However, it has been launched in India beginning at Rs. 12,499 or BDT 14386 for the 4GB RAM and 64GB storage configuration. A higher-end version is also available for Rs. 14,499, or BDT 16,687, which has 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The INR to BDT covert rate here is 1 INR = 1.51 BDT.

Conclusion
Even with 6GB RAM, the Redmi 10 Prime performs averagely and offers a nice display. The back camera performs well for daytime use, and the battery life is adequate as well. However, it takes unimpressive selfies, charges slowly, and looks like a cheap choice. People who need prolonged battery support, and want to save some money in exchange for a few obvious sacrifices, can buy Redmi 10 Prime.
