The location of the fingerprint sensor is ideal. For accessing it requires minimal effort. On the phone's right side are the volume rocker and power button. The sim card slot is located on the left, while the speakers and charging ports are located at the bottom. There is a 3.5mm audio jack on the top. Clearly, consumers will get more than the bare necessities. Display It sports a 6.82-inch IPS LCD display that supports resolutions up to 1640p x 720p. This is much more than comparable entry-level phones. It is uncommon for low-cost phones to have a screen with a larger size and higher quality. The display refresh rate of 60 Hz contributes to the phone's durability. This indicates that the touch reaction will likewise provide consumers with a positive experience.

The colors shown on the screen seem less normal, and the screen turns entirely black under direct sunlight. Therefore, the brightness level must be adjusted to the maximum for operation. In the upper right corner of the display, you will find a camera-housing shaped like a teardrop. Additionally, the phone's chin and bezel are somewhat slimmer. Therefore, they will not significantly annoy users when watching movies or playing games. Camera The main camera panel has a triple 16MP camera configuration. The photographs produced by these lenses are mediocre, and Benco V90 cameras will not produce anything extraordinary.

Sometimes the tone enhances the overall appearance of the photographs, while other times it destroys the atmosphere. In dim lighting, contrast increases. Taking high-quality nighttime photographs takes additional effort. The main camera can capture movies at 30fps with a maximum quality of 1080p. The teardrop-shaped front camera holder houses an 8MP selfie camera. Benco V90 may easily have a front-facing camera with at least 8MP resolution, given the trend among other low-cost smartphones. The front camera just boosts the image's brightness level. This creates clear photographs; nevertheless, the image becomes less distinct owing to a loss of detail and sharpness. Portrait mode photographs are of ordinary quality and contribute nothing to their side. Read more: Walton Primo R10 Review: Does it offer value for money? Performance and Software The device has an eight-core Spreadtrum SC9832E processor. This chipset is more likely to be found in lower-to-middle-tier smartphones. However, the Benco V90 has made it into their budget phone lineup. Alongside the CPU, the IMG8322 GPU is integrated. In conjunction with its capabilities, the phone provides excellent processing performance for routine tasks and low-level gaming. The newly announced 4GB 64GB configuration performs somewhat better in multitasking and app navigation. However, the overall performance is subpar since the phone has slowness while running high-configuration games such as PUBG and Call of Duty. Such games should not be played on this phone, since doing so would strain the CPU.

Battery and Charging Here comes another advantage of Benco V90. It has a 5000mAh battery that can power the device for up to two days for the average user. Long hours of video viewing and gaming may extend the battery life of a smartphone by at least a day. However, it is heartbreaking to find that a phone still provides a 10W charger. It would be like giving a pail of water to fill an empty ocean. A 15W battery would be optimum in this situation. The charger takes around three to four hours to fully charge the battery.

It is difficult to lift one's head among such a throng. The Benco V90 tries with its attractive appearance, big display, competitive RAM and storage, and large battery. Compared to the pricing, the remaining deficiencies will not seem to be a problem.

Indonesia’s most volatile volcano erupted Friday, releasing plumes of ash high into the air and sending streams of lava with searing gas clouds flowing down its slopes. No casualties were reported. Clouds of hot ash shot 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) into the sky and an avalanche of lava and searing gas spilled down Mount Merapi’s trembling slopes up to 3 kilometers (1.8 miles) at least six times since the morning as the volcano groaned and rumbled, said Hanik Humaida, the head of Yogyakarta’s Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation Center. READ: Volcano spews lava on Galapagos island A series of strong pyroclastic flows were released from the actively growing lava dome in the inner summit crater of the 2,968-meter (9,737-foot) high volcano, Humaida said. Pyroclastic flow is a volcanic phenomenon includes turbulent and hot avalanches of hot lava rocks, ash and volcanic gasses mixed together. She described the volcano’s lava dome as growing rapidly, causing hot lava and gas clouds to flow down its slopes. Parts of the lava dome were collapsing, sending rocks and ash flowing down the southwest flank of the volcano. Ash covered several villages and nearby towns, she said. Mount Merapi has seen increased volcanic activity in recent weeks and ash plumes extended about 1.8 kilometers (1.2 miles) to the southwest of the volcano before dawn, Humaida said. Indonesia’s Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation Center did not raise Merapi’s alert status, which already was at the second-highest of four levels since it began erupting last November. Villagers living on Merapi’s fertile slopes are advised to stay 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) from the crater’s mouth and should be aware of the peril of lava, the agency said.

It is the most active of more than 120 active volcanoes in Indonesia and has repeatedly erupted with lava and gas clouds recently. Merapi’s last major eruption in 2010 killed 347 people. Indonesia, an archipelago of 270 million people, is prone to earthquakes and volcanic activity because it sits along the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” a horseshoe-shaped series of seismic fault lines around the ocean.

Red-hot lava gushed out of a Philippine volcano Monday after a sudden eruption of ash and steam that forced villagers to flee en masse and shut down Manila's international airport, offices and schools.
