New Oura Ring 5, features, price and technical sheet

by

Why would you buy a smart ring? The most immediate answer is simple: because it can measure sleep, activity, heart rate and other health data without forcing us to carry another screen with us. But there is a second, equally important reason: if it is well thought out, it can be done without taking up the wrist, without replacing a traditional watch and without reminding us every moment that we carry technology on our bodies. The problem appears when that balance is broken and the product begins to look less like a conventional ring and more like a small piece of technology accepted on the finger. That’s where the Oura Ring 5 wants to make a move: not only does it promise to measure better, it also wants to be noticed less. Oura’s movement is going right in that direction. According to the companythe Oura Ring 5 has 40% less volume than the Oura Ring 4 and measures 6.09 mm wide and 2.28 mm thick. According to the information available, its weight ranges between 2 and 2.69 grams, depending on size. On paper, the difference may seem small because we are still talking about millimeters and grams, but in a product designed to be worn during the day, at night and during training, everything indicates that this cut should be noticeable. You’ll have to check it with the ring on your hand and on your finger, because that’s where you really decide if miniaturization changes the experience. A smaller ring, but not simpler This reduction does not come, at least according to the firm, from simply squeezing the same components into a thinner casing. The company assures that the Ring 5 has been redesigned from the inside, with an architecture designed to fit sensors, battery and electronics in a much more limited space. In his technical explanation, Oura talks about a domino effect: by modifying one part in such a small product, the rest of the design has to change too. The most delicate part of this redesign is in the sensors. Oura assures that the Ring 5 incorporates low-profile sensors to improve contact with the skin, more efficient LEDs and 12 signal paths designed to obtain more consistent readings on different fingers and skin tones. The company also claims that this generation can obtain a pulse signal up to 100 times stronger than that of wrist wearables, a fact that should be read as a brand argument, but that helps to understand why the finger continues to be an interesting territory to measure constants. Compared to the Oura Ring 4, Oura speaks of 12% more accuracy in nighttime HRV and 19% more accuracy in measuring heart rate during activities such as running, walking or cycling. All of this would be left half-done if the ring was not prepared to survive everyday use. The Ring 5 is made of titanium, a material Oura says it chose for its strength-to-weight ratio, and features a more scratch-resistant PVD coating than previous generations. Oura also presents it as water resistant up to 100 meters and with IP68 certification, so the brand proposes it as a device to sleep, train, swim or wear during the day without having to treat it as a fragile piece. Autonomy accompanies this approach of continuous use. Oura speaks of between 6 and 9 days of battery life on a charge, depending on size, and an optional case, sold separately, capable of providing up to five full charges. But the Ring 5 doesn’t just arrive with hardware changes: the company also announces new features such as Health Radar, GLP-1 Insights and AI-assisted personalized medical guidance in collaboration with Counsel Health. Price and availability In Spain, the Oura Ring 5 can be reserved from May 28, 2026 and reserved orders will begin to ship from June 4, 2026, according to Oura information for our market. Entry to the new generation starts at 429 euros, but goes up to 529 euros in various finishes. It is a relevant point because it is advisable to add the subscription to the price of the ring if we want to access the advanced functions of the platform. Silver: 429 euros Black: 429 euros Stealth: 529 euros Brushed Silver: 529 euros Gold: 529 euros Deep Rose: 529 euros It will be available in six finishes: Silver, Black, Stealth, Brushed Silver, Gold and Deep Rose.

Xiaomi is making its debut, and it is one of the greats. For the first time, the company brings large appliances such as refrigerators and dishwashers to Spain, as well as new air conditioners, robot vacuum cleaners and TVs. But although its catalog is much larger, there is still room for the product that elevated the brand to where it is today: mobile phones, and be careful because The new generation ‘T’ comes with level specifications.

The camera module is square and is located in the upper left corner. The main difference comes with the Xiaomi 17T Pro is the largest and heaviest model of the family, reaching 219 grams, while the Xiaomi 17T stays at 200 grams, which is not exactly light either. Both have Gorilla Glass 7i and IP68 certification for water and dust resistance. In the screen section, we find differences in the size and also the refresh rate. The Pro model integrates a 6.83-inch AMOLED panel with a refresh rate of up to 144Hz, while the standard model stays at 6.59 inches and 120Hz. We notice the refresh rate in the fluidity of the screen when moving, although both are at a fairly high level so there should be no notable differences in daily use. Both feature Dolby Vision compatibility and TÜV Rheinland eye care certifications such as blue light and flicker reduction. Xiaomi 17T Pro In the cameras, the big news is that the Leica telephoto lens comes to both models. We are talking about a 50 megapixel sensor, under a lens with a focal length equivalent to 115 mm or a 5x optical zoom. In the previous generation, the Pro was the only one that had 5x zoom, it is appreciated that they equip them at this point. The main sensor is 50 megapixels, although it is not exactly the same: the 17T Pro has a 1/1.31-inch Light Fusion 950 and the normal one a 1/1.55-inch Light Fusion 800. The difference, therefore, is in the size and that has a notable impact on the quality of the images. In addition, the Xiaomi 17T Pro has a slightly brighter lens. They also have a 12-megapixel wide-angle camera and a 32-megapixel selfie camera. Power and autonomy The Xiaomi 17T Pro sets the standard with the MediaTek Dimensity 9500, a chip manufactured in a 3-nanometer process and capable of reaching clock speeds of up to 4.21GHz. According to Xiaomi, it offers 32% higher performance compared to the previous model. For its part, the Xiaomi 17T equips the MediaTek Dimensity 8500-Ultra, 4 nanometers, which reaches a slightly lower maximum speed of 3.4GHz. This model improves performance by 25%. In terms of memory, both have 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM, which allows speeds of up to 9600Mbps. However, while the standard model is offered in 12/256GB and 12/512GB versions, the Pro model adds a higher 12/1TB variant. They both have the Xiaomi 3D IceLoop cooling system which uses vapor-liquid separation technology to channel heat away from processing. Xiaomi 17T In software, the experience is identical. Both feature the Xiaomi HyperOS layer and integrate a strong package of artificial intelligence features under the Xiaomi HyperAI umbrella. Xiaomi bets on technology silicon-carbon what is catapulting autonomy resultsin addition to allowing slimmer designs. The Xiaomi 17T Pro has a 7,000mAh battery with support for 100W fast wired charging and 50W wireless charging. The Xiaomi 17T stays with 6,500 mAh and 67W fast wired charging. Price and availability of the Xiaomi 17T and 17T Pro At the moment Xiaomi has not confirmed the exact date of going on sale, but we do know the prices and the colors in which it will be marketed. The Xiaomi 17T Pro will arrive in dark blue, dark purple and black; The Xiaomi 17T arrives in purple, opal white, blue and black.

Omoda 7 and the challenge of seating the customer A few days ago we counted on Xataka that 22% of electric cars purchased in the EU arrive from China. From Chinese and European manufacturers but from China. In order to prevent this from happening or, at least, to try to stop the wave and keep it at the current 22%, the European Union imposed tariffs on these cars. In that game of tug of war that is geopolitics, Europe left the door open to cars They do have combustion engines. Cigars and plug-in hybrids, claiming that the real Chinese state doping was limited to electric cars. Whether they are right or not, China took the door and kicked it down. With special attention to countries where value for money is most valued, Chinese manufacturers have put a lot of effort into positioning themselves as the cheap alternative to European ones. So far this yearthere are five Chinese cars among the 10 best-selling plug-in hybrids in Spain. The first two are BYD cars. The rest are from the Chery group with two representatives from Omoda and one from Ebro. One of them is the Omoda 7. And it is not coincidental. As in the case of BYD Seal U DM-iit is not a question of the car being cheaper than its rivals (with equal equipment), it is also the perception of quality that its interior exudes. For now, Chinese manufacturers continue to have the problem of breaking stereotypes and putting the potential customer in the driver’s seat. When they do, it is rare that they opt for a European or traditional firm. It remains to be seen if it is a fad or if we are an exception in Europe. What is certain is that their sales throughout the continent are growing and that, from what I speak with those close to me, Chinese brands are attractive because the customer feels that vehicles from European companies have become more expensive at the same rate that the quality of the materials has taken the opposite path. It is not a coincidence, it is an image and it is results And, as I said, if the brand manages to seat the potential customer inside an Omoda 7 like this, it has a lot to gain. Because the perceived quality of the materials is very good. On the steering wheel, different functions sit on the same piece but the touch is precise. In the central tunnel there are buttons for the basic climate controls, with a well-fitting and pleasant to the touch finish, especially the moving parts to raise and lower the temperature. The rest of the dashboard is dominated, of course, by a huge screen which in this case is 15.6 inches. A screen that moves if we slide our five fingers on the screen from one side to the other. Thus, we can send it to the co-pilot’s position (and return it to the driver, of course) thanks to a mechanized chain that cannot be seen. An artifice as unexpected as it is surprising that is sure to delight children. Is it practical? Well, relatively, if the co-pilot wants to change songs or look for an address, it will be easier with the screen in front, although it is not a drama to do it from the central position. Is it striking? Well, much more than practical and that’s where its charm lies. Screen in the co-pilot position Beyond the anecdote, the infotainment system remains as simple and practical as ever. The “home” screen has various widgets at the bottom that you can play with to manage the sound of the radio or music without diving into the menus. Additionally, it has a well-structured secondary menu but it requires some learning to remember that, for example, a negative point: regulating the position of the mirrors requires you to go through the screen. What I have noticed a good improvement in is compatibility with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. In this Omoda 7 the system runs very smoothly when we choose to use either of these two systems and I have not noticed jerks as I have experienced with other Chinese cars. Once in motion, the good feelings remain. The seat is well padded and is heated and ventilated. Options that in traditional brands, again, continue to add to the final bill. Like the Head-Up Display, which is also standard and works and is clearly read. The Omoda 7 SHS is a plug-in hybrid that uses the now “classic” system … Read more

Samsung Odyssey G8 G80H, features, price and technical sheet

by

To what extent does the monitor matter when we talk about gaming? Much more than it seems when one looks only at the processor, graphics or console. The screen is the last link in that entire chain: there the power is translated into images, fluidity, detail and response. Samsung has made a move with a proposal that draws attention from the first piece of information: a Odyssey G8 which the company presents as “the industry’s first 6K gaming monitor.” The protagonist of this release is the G80HSthe 32-inch version of the Odyssey G8, a product that comes with a particularly ambitious technical sheet. The resolution is 6144 x 3456 pixels, with a density of 224 dpi. The format remains at 16:9, the panel is flat and the technology chosen is IPS, a base that seeks to combine sharpness, viewing angle and response. Samsung Odyssey G8 G80HS technical data sheet Samsung Odyssey G8 32″ (G80HS) Panel 32-inch Fast IPS 16:9 aspect ratio HDR10+ HDR10+ Gaming Resolution 6144 x 3456 pixels (6K) 3072 x 1728 pixels (3K) MAXIMUM REFRESH FREQUENCY 165Hz (6K) 330Hz (3K) typical brightness 350 nits contrast ratio 1,000:1 response time 1 (GTG) VIEWING ANGLES 178°(H) 178°(V) Color support sRGB 99% Up to 1 billion colors connectivity 1 x Display Port 2 x HDMI 2.1 1x USB-B upstream 2x USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 Headphone output dimensions 714.5 x 595.4 x 263.9 mm (with base) weight 7.4 kilos (with base) price Unannounced The Odyssey G8 that stands out for its jump in resolution We talk about higher resolution, but does this always mean a better experience? The reality is that to really notice it content is missingdistance of use and equipment capable of moving the games. That said, the G80HS’s bet goes in a clear direction: offering a cleaner image, with finer contours and more room to work on the desktop. It is a very current approach, because many users no longer buy a monitor just to play: they are looking for a screen that can be used to edit, write, view content and then return to the game. The other half of the proposal is speed. Samsung proposes two paths: use the monitor in 6K at 165 Hz or go down to 3K to reach 330 Hz through Dual Mode. The refresh rate indicates how many times per second the image can be updated, so a higher number can translate into smoother movements. It makes sense that there are two modes, because not all titles ask for the same thing: a narrative game can benefit more from the detail, while a competitive one usually appreciates every extra fluidity. The chosen panel also helps to understand where the G80HS is going. Samsung talks about “Fast IPS“, a technology that seeks to combine good color reproduction, wide viewing angles and a quick response, three important points when the monitor is not always used from the front or only for gaming. The firm mentions 178 degrees of horizontal and vertical vision, support for up to 1 billion colors and 99% coverage of the sRGB space. The image is completed with HDR10 and HDR10+ Gaming, a set of compatibilities designed to improve the treatment of brightness and contrast. HDR10+ Gaming, remember, optimizes values ​​in real time to make details more visible in dark areas and brightly lit parts of the scene. In a game, this can make very specific differences: distinguishing an opponent better in a shadow, reading a nighttime environment more clearly, or better preserving the reading of a brightly lit area. On a screen with these characteristics, connectivity is also part of the experience. The G80HS includes DisplayPort 2.1, two HDMI 2.1one USB-B upstream port, two USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 and headphone output. In practice, this allows you to set up a desktop with a PC, other gaming devices and peripherals without depending so much on external adapters, although it is worth keeping one detail in mind: does not include speakers. Samsung also includes an ergonomic stand with height, tilt, swivel and pivot adjustment, plus VESA 100 x 100mm mounting support. It should be noted that the G80HS does not arrive alone, and that also helps to understand the breadth of Samsung’s launch. The new Odyssey family includes other models, such as a 27-inch G8 with 5K resolution at 180 Hz or up to 360 Hz in QHD through Dual Mode, in addition to OLED proposals such as the Odyssey OLED G8 and the Odyssey OLED G7. The company has also renewed the ViewFinity S8 line, more aimed at professional environments. Odyssey G8 G80H Price and Availability Samsung talks about the launch of its new generation of Odyssey and ViewFinity monitors, but in the information provided the price does not appear of the Odyssey G8 G80HS nor a specific date of commercial availability in Spain. What the company does indicate is that it is now possible to register on its website to discover the new Odyssey G8 line, the Odyssey OLED G7 and the ViewFinity S8, in addition to accessing the launch promotion.

Fitbit Air, features, price and technical sheet

by

Fitbit seemed to have remained in the background within the Google ecosystem, almost like a brand that remained there by inertia while the prominence fell to the PixelWatch. Now come back with Fitbit Aira simple and light bracelet, which points just in the opposite direction to that of many smart watches: fewer visible functions, less complications and a more contained price. The paradox is that this return of hardware also comes with a less obvious reading: the brand, loved by many users, is beginning to become increasingly diluted within the search giant. It is not just any release within the Google catalog. The Fitbit Air is Fitbit’s first hardware device in almost four years, so its arrival could be read as a small resurrection for the brand. But the entire movement points in another direction. Google bought Fitbit a few years ago for $2.1 billion and, since then, it has been bringing this technology increasingly closer to its own ecosystem. Now the step is even more visible: Google is already presenting the old Fitbit app under the name Google Health, a step that reveals part of its strategy. Fitbit Air technical sheet Fitbit Air dimensions and weight Length: 34.9mm Width: 17mm height: 8.3mm 5.2g without strap 12g with strap Memory Saves 7 days of detailed minute-by-minute motion data. Save 1 day of training data Save daily totals for the last 30 days Stores heart rate data in 2 second intervals battery and charging Up to 7 days of autonomy Lithium polymer battery Charge from 0 to 100% in 90 minutes connectivity Bluetooth 5.0 sensors Optical heart rate monitor Three-axis accelerometer Red and infrared sensors to monitor oxygen saturation (SpO2) On-device temperature sensor (skin temperature variation available in the Google Health app) vibration motor Endurance Water resistant up to 50 meters. colors Obsidian, mist gray, raspberry, lavender price From 99.99 euros A simple bracelet for a much more ambitious strategy Fitbit Air is quick to understand because it doesn’t try to do everything. It has no screen, it has no buttons and you don’t want to become another device to look at every few minutes. The idea is simpler: you put it on, wear it during the day or at night and let it record activity, sleep and some health metrics without asking you too much attention. We are looking at a product that weighs 12 grams with the strap and 5.2 grams without it, so Google’s promise seems to go in the direction of having more functions in sight as well as wearing something comfortable that almost disappears on the wrist. That simplicity doesn’t mean that the Fitbit Air arrives empty inside. It incorporates an optical heart rate sensor, gyroscope, accelerometer, blood oxygen sensor and skin temperature sensor for sleep monitoring. It also withstands immersion up to 50 meters and promises seven days of battery life on a charge, plus one day of use with five minutes plugged in. Another important detail is that it can work simultaneously with a Pixel Watch. So it doesn’t seem designed for you if you just want to respond to messages, receive notifications, or have a screen full of data on your wrist. That’s what smart watches are already for. But if you are looking for a simple way to measure your activity, your rest and some health signals without getting too complicated, Fitbit Air may be an option to consider. It also fits if you already have a Pixel Watch and prefer to leave the watch for the day, but wear something lighter to sleep or train. The other big change you will not notice on your wrist, but on your mobile. If you used Fitbit as a reference application, as we pointed out above, that space is renamed Google Health. Google’s idea is to bring together health monitoring, wellness data and personalized coaching, all in one place. The change also involves integrating Health Connect, the Android layer designed to organize health data between applications. On paper, it may seem like just a name change, but it says a lot about what’s happening: Fitbit continues to appear on the band, while the daily experience begins to move more and more towards Google. The subscription layer also changes location. Google explains that Fitbit Premium becomes Google Health Premium. This is where the most ambitious features come in, such as the personal health coach integrated with Gemini, plans that adapt to progress, rest and recovery, or the possibility of receiving more personalized information on well-being. Price and availability of Google Fitbit Air in Spain Google Fitbit Air can now be reserved in Spain from 99.99 euros. The device also includes a three-month trial of Google Health Premium for new members, with subsequent automatic renewal for 8.99 euros per month if not canceled.

March 2023. It has been more than three years since Volkswagen will show us the ID for the first time. 2all. That car has finally been called ID.Polo. It is a subtlety without much importance that perfectly summarizes the path that the company has taken in recent years and what steps the electric car has been taking. Be that as it may, we already know all the technical and mechanical details and the price of a car that It will be manufactured in Martorell. Volkswagen ID technical sheet. Pole VOLKSWAGEN ID.

Version with LFP battery of 37 kWh net (autonomy to be confirmed) with powers of 85 kW (116 HP) and 99 kW (135 HP). Version with NCM battery of 52 kWh (449 km of autonomy) and 155 kW (211 HP of power) Price and release Now available in its 52 kWh battery version. Without aid: from 35,070 euros With discounts and aid: from 24,330 euros “Typically Volkswagen” When Volkswagen presented the ID. 2all said it was a car “typically Volkswagen”. By this they meant that it was a car that should fit into most families. That “2all” didn’t leave much room for doubt either. Those days we thought that the electric car was going to advance faster than what we have seen since. The “cheap” electric car has a problem. Right now, its batteries are short and its main obstacle is its autonomy on the road. With a Volkswagen Polo you traveled anywhere with more or less discomfort in terms of space. The ID. 2all It promised those same inconveniences but, in addition, added another that many clients do not seem to be willing to assume: lengthen travel times. In the three years that have passed since then, the brands have verified that the customer has certain reluctance to make the leap to this technology if they do not have a guaranteed autonomy large enough to Do not turn trips into a small ordealno matter how few they are per year. And they have also discovered that they do not want something disruptive, that they do not care if the car is electric if it maintains the essences that we already knew. Volkswagen has remained firm in its commitment to offer an electric car for less than 25,000 euros but it has changed some decisions that were not liked. The most obvious, the name. The car will eventually be called Volkswagen ID. Polo, writing a new page in the history of the model. The second thing is the physical buttons, which the German company is returning to its models after poor usability decisions and certainly erratic functioning on its touch surfaces. The most urban Volkswagen Polo in history Current technical limitations, until higher energy density batteries arrive and their popularity lowers manufacturing prices, forces this Volkswagen ID. Polo is the most urban version of its history. And the small electric from the Germans arrives with a size of 4,053 mm long, 1,816 mm wide and 1,530 mm high. Measurements more than solvent for the city that, with a wheelbase of 2,600 mm, promise a lot of interior space. The point is that your starting battery to get below 25,000 euros is very short, barely 37 kWh net which will be combined with powers of 85 kW (116 HP) and 99 kW (135 HP). With that size, the car will be limited to the urban environment and the periphery. With a highway consumption of 20 kWh/100 km, these versions of the ID. Polo would not reach 200 kilometers of real autonomy. Above, a 155 kW (211 HP) version can be ordered and 52 kWh NCM battery which approves a maximum of 449 kilometers but anticipates a real road autonomy of 250 kilometers if consumption is 20 kWh/100 km on the road. Without proving it, going below that figure would be extraordinary news for those looking for a car with a minimum cost to their pocket on a day-to-day basis and who does not sacrifice the ability to go out on weekends without the trip taking forever. As long as, of course, the trip is less than 350 kilometers. Volkswagen promises fast charges from 10 to 80% of battery capacity in “approximately 24 minutes.” Inside, the car comes with a Digital Cockpit that is built on a 10-inch screen to serve as an instrument panel. The infotainment is mounted on a 13-inch central screen compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. This screen is accompanied by a lower button panel and touch controls on the steering wheel. A decision that is marked by the latest controversies caused for the jump to “everything touch” and that we have tried to correct here. At the moment, the car only arrives with its most powerful version and larger battery, but the brand announces that in summer we will see its most basic versions. These will already have an adaptive cruise function, LED headlights with automatic high-low beam activation and a multifunction steering wheel. In its higher versions, keyless opening and starting, rear view cameras with parking aids, inductive charging for the mobile phone or voice control of the infotainment system can be added. In the top-of-the-range versions, matrix headlights, IQ.LIGHT LED Matrix headlights, can be added, and as an option, a 480-watt Harman Kardon premium sound system with ten speakers, … Read more

If what we are looking for is a phone that takes up less space in our pocket, but that when opened behaves like a large cell phone, a foldable clamshell phone may be a good option. The idea is quickly understood, but other things such as specifications and, above all, how much it costs also matter. with the new razr 70, razr 70 Plus and razr 70 Ultrawhat we have seen is a family that aims precisely at that need: very similar on the outside, but much more separated when we start to look inside. The range is organized into three fairly clear steps. The Motorola razr 70 is the gateway, with the lowest price of the family and some visible concessions in external screen, processor and charging. The razr 70 Plus occupies the middle ground, already with a 4-inch external screen, a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 and a more balanced card. The razr 70 Ultra is reserved for those looking for the most ambitious: better processor, more memory, larger capacity battery, faster charging and a more complete camera system.

The company relies again on Pantone to give personality to each model, but it does not do it in the same way throughout the range. The razr 70 is the most varied in colors, with Hematite, Violet Ice, Sporting Green and Bright White. The Plus stays in a single Pantone Mountain View, while the Ultra looks for a more sophisticated point with Orient Blue in Alcantara and Cocoa with a wood finish. From left to right: Motorola razr 70, razr 70 Plus and razr 70 Ultra As we say, the separation that is easiest to see in everyday life begins on screens. The razr 70 has a 3.63-inch external screen that, according to the firm, is enough to run complete applications, check notifications or respond to messages without opening the phone. In the razr 70 Plus and the razr 70 Ultra the jump is in the outer 4 inches, with a refresh rate of up to 165 Hz. In addition, the external panel of the Plus reaches 2,400 nits of maximum brightness, while that of the Ultra goes up to 3,000 nits. The internal screen maintains a common base in all three models, but not all of them play the same. The Razr 70 opts for a 6.90-inch panel with 120 Hz, the Razr 70 Plus remains on that same diagonal but goes up to 165 Hz, and the Razr 70 Ultra takes a small leap up to 6.96 inches, also with 165 Hz. Beyond the size, the real difference is in the refresh rate: the higher the number, the greater the fluidity, something that is especially noticeable in games and when navigating the interface. Part of that difference is explained with LTPO. This type of panel allows you to vary the refresh rate in real time, reducing it when it is not necessary or increasing it when we are looking for maximum response. This, as you can imagine, has a direct impact on autonomy: by not always maintaining the highest rate, consumption is better adjusted to real use and the battery should stretch more on a day-to-day basis. In the case of the Razr 70 Ultra, in addition, the peak … Read more

Chinese mobile companies have set a goal for this beginning of 2026: get muscle. But wildly, too. If Vivo presented a few weeks ago the Vivo X300 Ultranow it is the turn of an Oppo that also has a new offspring with that same surname. Next, we go with all the features of an Oppo Find X9 Ultra which, like the Vivo, intends to turn the mobile photography segment upside down. Oppo Find X9 Ultra technical sheet oppo find x9 ultra SCREEN 6.82-inch AMOLED panel QHD+ resolution 144Hz frequency HBM brightness of 1,800 nits 3,600 nits peak PROCESSOR Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 RAM 12GB STORAGE 512GB FRONT CAMERA 50 megapixels REAR CAMERAS Main 200 megapixel f/1.5 200 megapixel f/2.2 3x telephoto 10x telephoto 50 megapixel f/3.5, shift sensor 50 megapixel f/2.0 wide angle BATTERY 7,050 mAh 100W charging 50W wireless charging OPERATING SYSTEM Android + ColorOS 16 Others IP69 certification PRICE 1,699 euros Hasselblad takes control Unlike the Vivo model, Oppo wanted to break with the rest of the X9 family if we talk about design. If he Oppo Find X9 Pro opted for a more discreet camera module than that of competing mobile phones, the X9 Ultra mounts a round and enormous module that, as we will see when we talk about cameras, has its reason for being. That glass circle is the main protagonist of a rear in which another proper name stands out: Hasselblad. They have been collaborating for a while, but putting the name of the camera brand on the same level as that of their own brand is a declaration of intent. The ‘Hasselblad orange’ is present both in the customization touches of the camera app and in the extra button that we find on the right side. On the front, things remain the same as seen in the Pro model. Same design, taking great advantage of the edges to create an all-screen experience, HBM brightness of 1,800 nits and a slightly larger panel than that of the Find X9 Pro, going from 6.78 inches to 6.82 inches with 144 Hz refresh rate instead of 120 Hz. Snapdragon to the latest and battery to match Inside, things also change. Of the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 that surprised us with its performance on the Find X9 Pro, we move on to the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. It is the ‘almighty’ of Qualcomm and a processor that will star in the guts of the vast majority of premium mobile phones in 2026. It is accompanied by 12 GB of RAM, a curious change compared to the 16 GB of its ‘brother’, but which can be explained by the current component crisis we are in (and from which it will take us a while to get out). To feed the beast, the mobile has a silicon carbon battery 7,050 mAh with 100 W fast charging and 50 W wireless charging. Cameras, many Until now, one more premium range mobile. Where Oppo reflects all the ambition of this model is in the photographic section. As in the case of Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultrawe have four rear cameras, two of them focused on the telephoto for very different uses. main camera. It has a huge 1/1.12″ 200 megapixel sensor. The focal length is 23mm and the aperture is f/1.5. 3x Telephoto. Another large sensor (1/1.28″) that also has 200 megapixels for a focal length of 70 mm. It aims to be a spectacular portrait lens thanks to the focal length and aperture f/2.2, but it also has a focusing distance of only 15 centimeters to function as a macro. 10x telephoto. The sensor on this one is 50 megapixels and the size is 1/2.75″. The aperture is f/3.5 because it is much more designed for outdoors and something interesting is that it has stabilization in the sensor. wide angle. 50 megapixels with an f/2.0 aperture that is not usually conventional. The front camera It is 50 megapixels. Apart from the Hasselblad-type controls and color filters in collaboration with the brand, another extra of this model is the teleconverter. This is the second generation of Oppo (we already tested the first with the Oppo Find X9) and it goes from a focal length of 230 mm to 300 mm (a 13x, wow). Oppo points out that it offers up to 690 mm of optical quality (30x) thanks to the cutouts in the sensor and it is another of those points in which Chinese companies are looking to differentiate themselves. Also, another change is that the adapter for the teleconverter is easier to place, since on the X9 Pro it was a bit of gibberish that left the rest of the lenses useless. Oppo Find X9 Ultra price and availability Given the features, let’s move on to the price. The Oppo Find X9 Ultra will be available starting today, April 21, at a price of 1,699 euros. This time there is no “from” because there is only one RAM and storage configuration. Until April 29, however, it can be purchased with extras included in the price. On the one hand, a magnetic case.

Oppo has launched at the end of April with a complete renewal of a good part of its line of devices. The most powerful is an Oppo Find Next, we go with all the details of the new Oppo tablet that wants you to start writing with its new ‘pen’. Technical data sheet of the Oppo Pad 5 oppo pad 5 SCREEN 12.1 inch panel Resolution 2.8K 7:5 aspect ratio PROCESSOR RAM STORAGE FRONT CAMERA REAR CAMERAS BATTERY 10,500 mAh 33W charging OPERATING SYSTEM CONNECTIVITY OTHERS Oppo Pencil 2R Four speakers PRICE 399 euros Design without surprises. Expanded ecosystem If mobile phones are a segment in which innovation is complicated in many aspects beyond the technical characteristics, when we talk about tablets, things get complicated. It is a very closed format and the Oppo Pad 5 does not break with this. We have a large tablet, 12.1 inches with a 7:5 format screen. Oppo aims for some more paper-like dimensionssomething they want to promote in this generation. The resolution is 2.8K and it is TÜV Rheinland Intelligent Eye Care 4.0 certified to reduce eye fatigue during prolonged use. For entertainment consumption, it has Dolby Vision certification, as well as a four-speaker system, but Oppo has focused the announcement heavily on two aspects. One is the ecosystem, or the interconnection between ecosystems, rather. Oppo, and other brands in the group such as Realme, have been focused on blur the barriers not only with other Android/Windows devices, but with the Apple ecosystem. The Oppo Pad 5 has the possibility of exchanging videos, documents and photos with an iPhone or iPad. For multi-ecosystem people, it is a very important point. The Pencil 2R The other strong point that Oppo pushes is the Pencil 2R, a new generation of its ‘pen’ that is supported by software to be able to convert our quick strokes (and, sometimes, with regular handwriting) into something readable directly in the Notes application. In addition, it incorporates an AI system that can make summaries, reduce noise in recordings, transcribe roles in real time and summarize meetings. Another function to take advantage of both the pen and the AI ​​system are the automatically generated mental maps to structure the points of those meetings that we want to summarize. That focus on productivity is something that is pushing the tablet segment. Price and availability of the Oppo Pad 5 Once the features of the Oppo Pad 5 have been detailed, it is time to address the price. The tablet can be purchased from today, April 21, at a price of 399 euros. It comes in only one color (black or ‘StarlightBlack’). Images | Oppo In Xataka | Best tablets in quality price.

Realme has just announced the launch of its new mid-range, the Realme 16 5G. It is a device that seeks to gain a foothold in the most popular (and competitive) segment of telephony with two great weapons: design and battery. And it doesn’t seem to be any secret: Realme has been inspired quite clearly by the Apple iPhone Air and in the Google Pixel most recent. The company has opted for a higher plateau where it has housed the cameras and, curiously, a small mirror so that our subject can “look”, in quotes, and position himself better. A terminal that will not go unnoticed and that we will get to know better right away. Realme 16 5G technical sheet realme 16 5g dimensions and weight 158.3 x 75.1 x 8.1mm 183 grams screen 6.57 inch FOLED FullHD+ resolution (2,372 x 1,080 pixels) 397 dpi Refresh rate: 120 Hz PWM: 2,160Hz Normal brightness: 1,000 nits Maximum brightness: 1,400 nits Peak brightness: 4,200 nits 100% DCI-P3 processor MediaTek Dimensity 6400 Turbo Mali-G57 MC2 ram memory 8GB LPDDR4x internal storage 256GB UFS 2.2 rear camera Wide angle: 50 MP f/1.8, FOV 75º Monochrome: 2 MP, f/2.4, FOV 88º FHD Video@30 FPS front camera 50 MP, f/2.4, FOV 86º FHD Video@60 FPS battery 6,500 mAh 45W fast charging operating system Android 16 with Realme UI 7.0 connectivity Wi-Fi 5 Bluetooth 5.3 Dual nanoSIM NFC USB type C GPS others IP69 resistance On-screen fingerprint reader Vapor chamber cooling Stereo speaker rear mirror price From 369 euros (introductory offer) That design sounds familiar to me Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme That the Realme 16 5G draws on the iPhone Air and the Google Pixel is evident. The company has opted for a simple design, with a smooth back and an upper horizontal camera module where there are two cameras (not three as it might seem). Realme has named this finish Air Design and the upper module, Camera Bar. The firm assures that it is “a design inspired by flagship smartphones.” The terminal has a thickness of 8.1 millimeters and weighs only 181 grams. These are figures that are not bad at all and even less so if we take into account that, inside, there is a 6,500 mAh battery. Then we’ll talk about her. It also highlights the IP69 resistance and that, in such a thin body, we find a 6,050 mm² vapor chamber that, on paper, should keep the temperature at bay. Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme Regarding the exterior, the absolute protagonist is a 6.57-inch AMOLED screen, FullHD+ resolution, up to 120 Hz refresh rate and a maximum brightness of 1,400 nits. Realme has highlighted the “ultra-thin edges” and rounded corners, again, resembling it to a high-end terminal. Engine signed by MediaTek We take out the scalpel to see inside. Under the hood we find a processor MediaTek Dimensity 6400 Turbo eight-core 2.5 GHz configuration, as well as a unique eight-core configuration gigabytes of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. The RAM is LPDDR4x and the storage is UFS 2.2, so not only are they relatively modest amounts, but they are not the fastest versions either. Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme The operating system is Android 16 with Realme UI 7.0, which implements an interface with transparency and a new engine, Flux Engine, to improve animations and system response. What the company has not mentioned in the information shared with the media is the number of years it will keep the software updated. Finally, and regarding the battery, the terminal has a capacity of 6,500 mAh courtesy of the silicon-carbon technology. It is worth mentioning that this is the version that arrives in Spain, but the version from other markets, such as Vietnam, has even more capacity and reaches 7,000 mAh. In any case, autonomy should not be a problem. The fast side, for its part, stays at 45W. Is that a mirror? Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme We ended up talking about the camera. Although the rear appears to have three cameras, the reality is that it only has two: a wide angle and a monochrome which, historically, has been used to improve portrait taking. The protagonist is the angle, since it mounts a sensor Sony IMX852 50 megapixel. That, combined with the LumaColor engine, promises better results, always on paper. The most striking thing is, without a doubt, the rear mirror. Next to the lenses there is a small mirror designed to take selfies with the rear camera (something that, it must be said, would make more sense if it had a wide angle). The idea is not bad, but we will have to see if, in practice and in movement situations, that little mirror makes a difference or not. Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme And speaking of selfies, the Realme 16 5G is one of the few, if not the only mid-range terminal that incorporates a 50-megapixel front camera. That is, without a doubt, very good news in terms of sharpness, although we already know that processing plays an important role in taking photographs. We will clear up doubts when we put the glove on for the analysis. Versions and price of the Realme 16 5G Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme He Realme 16 5G It can be purchased from today both on its website and at the usual retailers. It will be available in black and white (with glowing effects depending on the light) and in a single 8/256 GB version. During the launch and until April 30, its price will be 349 euros.
