Closer Black, Closer White…and distant from AirPods! In terms of design, the Realme Buds Air 2 come with a reasonably mainstream look and this time cannot be accused of being inspired by that fruity company in Cupertino. The buds come in a glossy case that is squoval (squarish oval) and compact and light enough, and has a single LED in front to show battery status. The buds themselves are about four grams each, and come with a stem and a top that are slightly shiny – our Closer Black one had dark blue accents on it....

The phone has been in the news for a long time now being teased and leaked endlessly and finally, has gone official with this launch in China.

Not Pro, but looks like it…GOOD! The Redmi K20 and the Redmi K20 Pro are two different devices but you actually cannot tell them apart. They are identical when it comes to design, which honestly is a great thing because both the phones look phenomenal. The two are actually amongst the best phones we have seen from Xiaomi in terms of design. You know how there are some phones with great fronts but just average backs or vice-versa?...

Looks and design This is one of the most lopsided rounds in the contest. No, it is not as if the Redmi Note 6 Pro is ugly or an eyesore, but it largely follows the design footsteps of its predecessor, with a metal body. The Zenfone Max Pro M2 does nothing of the sort, swapping the metal of its predecessor with some very classy glass, a much better-designed camera unit (putting the cameras against a white background is clever) and even slapping Gorilla Glass 6 on its display....

Redmi Note 9: Design and Display To begin with, the Redmi Note 9 appears to have a similar design as the Note 9 Pro and Note 9 Pro Max, with what Xiaomi calls, the “Aura Balance design” that has a quad-camera setup on the rear and a cutout on the front for the front-facing camera. It comes in three colorways: Arctic White, Aqua Green, and Pebble Grey. Towards the front, the device has a 6....

And now there are notebooks. Sub-Rs 30,000 notebooks? They could be coming That amazing Manu Jain and his sweethearts have launched the Mi Notebook series in India yesterday, you know. And the prices are very very amazing, as per everyone in this team (I am an old woman, darlings, for me, a notebook still is something that has paper in it). But a lot of people were also a little bit surprised at the fact that the Mi Notebook range started at around Rs 41,999, which is sort of like a mid-segment, like Rs 15,000 for phones, where there are already devices from other players....
