Xiaomi's new tab for a big screen experience

Xiaomi's two new tabs - Redmi Pad 2 Pro and Redmi Pad 2 Pro 5G - were officially unveiled in Dhaka on January 25. As the demand for work and entertainment on a large screen increases, Xiaomi has brought these new tabs with the promise of a premium experience.

The company says that the large 12.1-inch 2.5K resolution display and 120Hz refresh rate will provide a smooth experience in all areas - watching videos, online classes, or gaming. TUV Rheinland's Low Blue Light, Flicker Free, and Circadian Friendly certifications have been added for eye protection.

The pad also attracts attention in terms of battery. The 12,000 mAh battery ensures long-term use. In addition, it can also be used as a power bank in an emergency due to the 27-watt reverse charging facility. The processor is the fourth-generation Snapdragon Seven-S. Which will make multitasking and daily work more dynamic.

The 5G version has physical and e-SIM facilities, allowing for direct calling and mobile data usage. This makes the tab a great alternative to a smartphone. The two devices are available in Graphite Gray, Silver, and Lavender Purple. The WiFi version is priced at Tk 37,999 and the 5G version is priced at Tk 44,999.

Curved display and long-term use promise

In the new year, Infinix has launched a new smartphone called 'Note Edge' to strengthen its position in the upper-mid-range market. This phone with a curved display and 5G technology is designed with young users in mind for long-term use.

The Note Edge has a 3D curved 1.5K Ultra HD display. Its bezel is very narrow. At just 7.2 millimeters thick, the phone is light and comfortable to hold. The MediaTek Dimensity 7100 5G chipset is used as the processor. Infinix claims that it will ensure stable performance in multitasking and gaming.

The 6500 mAh battery makes it possible to use for more than a day. 'Self-healing' technology has been added to increase battery life. There is also a long-term guarantee in terms of software - three years of operating system updates and five years of security patches.

There is a 50-megapixel camera for photography. Which supports AI-based image processing. The price of the phone in Bangladesh has been set at 29,999 taka for the 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage version and 31,999 taka for the 256 GB storage version.

Oppo's 'Live Wide' experience at the beach

Oppo has unveiled the Reno 15 series 5G at Cox's Bazar, the world's longest sea beach. Through this unique event, Oppo has mainly highlighted the camera capabilities of the device. The biggest attraction of the Reno 15 series is the 120x zoom facility. Which can clearly capture distant scenes.

The series features an ultra-wide front camera with 'Golden Selfie Angle' support, 3.5x telephoto portrait and AI Portrait Glow features. For video creators, there is 4K HDR ultra-steady video capability.

Oppo said that the Reno 15 series is not just a smartphone, but a means of telling stories. Therefore, the company wants to encourage the country's tourism and creative content creation through a partnership with the Bangladesh Tourism Corporation.

In Bangladesh, Oppo Reno 15 5G (12 GB RAM and 256 GB storage) is available for Tk 79,990 and Reno 15F 5G (8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage) is available for Tk 54,990. Oppo's new pad and special offers have also been announced.
