Update(July 14): The Realme X3 series will go on sale again today.

The Realme X3 along with the Realme X3 SuperZoom will go on their first sale in India today at 12 noon on Flipkart. These phones under the Realme X3 series were released last week in India and are the successors to the Realme X2 series that was introduced last year.

As the name suggests, the Realme X3 SuperZoom comes with a 5x optical and 60x hybrid zoom similar to what we’ve seen in Huawei P30 Pro and a few other devices, however, at a much lower price point. The Realme X3, though, is the base variant in the series and sports 2x zoom.

Realme X3, Realme X3 SuperZoom price in India

Apart from hardware specifications, pricing of the Realme X3 series is another highlight. The starting price of close to Rs. 25,000  is good enough to give some other premium devices jittery moments.

Both the phones can be bought via Flipkart as well as from Realme's site from a sale starting at 12 noon today. The price of Realme X3 and Realme X3 SuperZoom in India can be found as under: 

Product Configutaion Price (INR)
Realme X3 SuperZoom 12 + 256 Rs 32,999
Realme X3 SuperZoom 8 + 128 Rs 27,999
Realme X3 8 + 128 Rs 25,999

Additionally, there is a 2-megapixel camera for macro shots along with an 8-megapixel sensor that comes equipped with Periscope-style lens setup that lends the phone 5x optical zoom as well as 60x hybrid zoom capabilities.

Where the X3 differs from its SuperZoom variant is the fourth sensor that offers for 2x optical zoom and the front dual camera setup which houses a 16-megapixel Sony sensor coupled with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle snapper.

HP 15.6-inch ZBook 15v G5 - $1,649.00 at B&H
(roughly £1,300)
This mobile workstation from HP is the most affordable on the market to feature a monstrous Intel Xeon processor. The ZBook 15v G5 will happily churn through any computer intensive task it's given. Plus, it comes with a free one-year subscription to Bitdefender Total Security 2020 (5 devices) worth $90.View Deal

At the time of writing, the HP 15.6-inch ZBook 15v G5 is the most affordable Intel Xeon mobile workstation on the market.

It's billed as a high-performance portable business laptop that excels at creative and number-crunching tasks and yet somehow manages to maintain a relatively affordable price tag.

The laptop features a 15.6" Anti-Glare UWVA IPS screen with 1920x1080 px resolution, 16:9 aspect ratio, LED-backlighting and a brightness of 220 cd/m^2. HP opted for a rather peculiar design, with the V-shaped bottom of the display perched on top of the hinge.

The ZBook 15v G5  is powered by an Intel Xeon E-2176M processor; a 6-core, 12-thread beast with 12MB cache and a base clock speed of 2.7GHz. This is paired with 16GB of DDR4 memory in one slot (with a second memory slot left free) and a 512GB PCIe SSD, plus a dedicated Nvidia Quadro P600 graphics chip with 4GB GDDR5 video memory.

Given its rather large footprint, it doesn’t come as a surprise that the ZBook features numerous I/O connectors as well. There are three Type-A USB ports, one Type-C/Thunderbolt 3 Alt DP, an HDMI 2.0, a Gigabit Ethernet connector, two audio ports, 802.11ac and Bluetooth 5.0.

In terms of drawbacks, the 52.5WHr battery is a little on the small side and we're rather disappointed there's no fingerprint reader for added security.

Bear in mind

  • Unfortunately, B&H only ships to the US, so international customers will need to use a specialist parcel forwarding service to take advantage of the deal.
  • Have you managed to get hold of a cheaper product with equivalent specifications, in stock and brand new? Let us know and we'll tip our hat to you.

Following on from its successful Super Mario Lego collaboration, Nintendo and Lego are teaming up once again for a nostalgia-fuelled set based on the classic NES console of the 1980s.

The set, which was teased in a five-second video by Lego's official Twitter account, will allow fans to build a Nintendo Entertainment System console and accompanying controller out of Lego bricks, along with a Super Mario Bros. cartridge and old school television to round out the retro set.

While the teaser video is as brief as it is dark and shrouded in mystery, leaked images of the upcoming set have since been posted on the Chinese website VJGamer (where they were spotted by Twitter leaker @Nibellion) offering a much better look at what we can expect from the final product.

According to the leaked images, the Lego NES set will contain 2,646 pieces in total, which seems about right. However, what's more surprising is that the box also notes an 18+ age rating for the set, which we have to assume is a mistake given the family-friendly nature of both Nintendo and Lego.

Given that Lego is only teasing the set at this stage, it's not surprising that official pricing and availability has yet to be announced. That said, Nibel's tweet also links to the German Lego site Promobricks, which claims the NES set will arrive in Germany on August 1, 2020 priced at €229.99 (around $260 / £208 / AU$376).

Of course, it's only a matter of time before both Lego and Nintendo fully lift the curtain on the retro-tastic set, so stay tuned for official pricing details as they become available.
