Lenovo K80 is famous as a competitor directly to ASUS ZenFone 2 with a massive 4GB RAM. And good news for consumers as well as Lenovo K80 fans is that Lenovo has brought it here, in Malaysia with a reasonable price. However, the happiness is not absolutely completed because Lenovo K80 will just be available with 2GB RAM for now.

Talking about Lenovo K80 specs, one important thing that brings K80 such fame is its Intel’s Quad-Core Atom Z3560 64-bit 1.8GHz processor with 4GB RAM, but today, well will only look at the Lenovo K80 2GB RAM version.

In fact, there are not many differences between the 2 Lenovo K80 versions. The 2GB RAM handset also includes a 5.5″ Full HD display (401ppi) along with 32GB of the on-board storage. As for the camera combo, there are a rear cam of 13MP with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) and 5MP front one. The whole handset is run by Android 5.0 Lollipop. The most outstanding feature compared to ASUS ZenFone 2 is its battery: 4,000mAh. Despite owning such huge capacity, it’s still able to get a slim body at 8.5mm of thickness. Besides, Lenovo K80 supports 4G LTE with single SIM but when coming to Malaysia, there’s no mention of its supported bands.

In terms of Lenovo K80 Malaysia 2GB RAM version price in Malaysia, DirectD is now offering it at RM999 incl GST. So, back in China, the 4GB RAM plus 64GB ROM Lenovo K80 is priced at 1,799 Yuan which is about RM1,083. If DirectD continues to offer more choices of Lenovo K80, we hope that the price for the 4GB RAM will also vary from RM1,000 to RM1,100.

In conclusion, we are glad to inform you that Lenovo K80 Malaysia, ASUS ZenFone 2‘s strong competitor, is here with the 2GB RAM and 32GB ROM version for under RM1,000.

As for camera, Star 3 may remain the 13MP rear dual cam, but of course, if the company can improve the shooters to more than 13MP, the phone’s gonna be awesome. Besides, there can be two color options: dark gray and shiny blue.

So, those are TEN 5.5-inch screen smartphones with powerful specs and beautiful designs. Which one attracts you most?

We are almost in the middle of June and recently, OnePlus team has partly made the summer hotter by releasing the the very first teasers of the OnePlus Two. Somehow its design is similar to the OPO. Let’s take a look at the following pictures:

OnePlus Two teaser

Teasers of the successor to OnePlus One having been posted show a general view of the new machine. However, seem like it cannot tell us much about its design.

If you remember, OnePlus team is running a contest to select a winner to participate its secret project for OnePlus Two in Hong Kong. Contestants will have to snap and send an unedited and non-filtered photo to the company’s Instagram by using the @oneplustech tag. Ten candidates will be picked based on the number of votes and “technical ability”, then the winner will be chosen by the public.

But the point here is that to promote for this program, OnePlus has posted an announcement on the Facebook along with a picture, which is likely to be the OnePlus 2.

We can notice that the phone is held in landscape, so there’s only the screen to be seen. It looks large and the bezel is really thin. Anyhow, before officially unveiling the true handset in the Q3 of 2015, OnePlus might not just let us figure out everything!

For not only the design but also the OnePlus Two specs, we still have to wait a bit more, yet some sources in China claim that the phone will boast 3GB RAM, Full HD display and Snapdragon 810 processor. Other than that, a fingerprint scanner is also rumored to come along with “better than Touch ID” features.

In terms of OnePlus Two price, it has not been confirmed yet. Nonetheless, there might be two OnePlus models we have to guess the prices: one is a flagship to replace OnePlus One and the other is a mid-range phone with lower specs and price tag.

So, what are your hopes for the OnePlus 2 Malaysia? Tell us!

We would like to introduce you 10 smartphones with good selfie cameras, promising you awesome pictures of yourself, friends, family and so on!

1. OPPO N1: 13MP

The OPPO N1 is perhaps the best phone here is for taking selfies. It is due to not only a good secondary cam but also an affordable price tag. This phone has a 13MP main camera as well as a 13MP front-facing shooter. Actually, N1 doesn’t have a separate selfie shooter as well, but what it does have though is a main camera which can swivel round to face the front. Its camera also sports a dual-LED flash which radiates a softer light when positioned in the front-facing selfie mode.

In additionally, there are many scene options for you such as: ‘Portrait’ and ‘Night’ and there’s even a ‘Beautify’.

2. Samsung Grand Prime: 5MP

Our next choice is Samsung Grand Prime. As for photography department, the device owns a 5MP for “selfie demand” and an 8MP main cam.

“Galaxy Grand Prime opens a whole new world of premium mobile experience for consumers looking at uninterrupted entertainment and multi-tasking on-the-go. Introducing the new trend of ‘Groupfie’, Galaxy Grand Prime features an advanced wide angle front camera best-suited to capture group images. With the launch of this power packed smartphone, we are further strengthening our Grand portfolio”.

3. Huawei Ascend P7: 8MP

Our third option is Huawei Ascend P7 with 8MP front snapper sensor along with the 13MP main cam. The manufacture has improved the phone with a higher secondary cam compared to 5MP front cam of Huawei Ascend P6. It’s also capable of some detailed, high quality photos, so you’d better cover up those spots and blemishes because they’ll be clear as day in anything this thing snaps.

Unfortunately, there’s no flash, but at least it does have a ‘Face Beauty Mode’ which automatically removes wrinkles and imperfections.

4. Sony Xperia C3: 5MP

Sony has so much confidence in the Xperia C3’s selfie-taking abilities that it’s the main thing it’s selling it on. C3 arrives with a 5-megapixel front facing camera in combination with an LED flash. In fact, there are not many smartphone vendors creating many megapixels in their front cameras and even fewer have a flash, so that’s a good start.

The handset also be designed to omit a soft, flattering light like the above OPPO N1. Besides that, it does have a wide-angle lens, so there’s no need to worry because you can fit more people into your shot. And all of things you need is to “smile” thanks to the smile detection feature.

However, if you want to use a button, it has a hardware shutter button so there’s no need to jab at the screen to snap a photo.

5. OnePlus One: 5MP

For “True flagship killer”, the OnePlus One although actually not as good as the rest of our list, still stays at a quite competence. It is reported to feature a 5MP front-facing shooter and it can shoot 1080p video at 30fps as well, so it’s similarly good for video calls.

And although OPO doesn’t pack much selfie tools that are able to find in some rival phones, there are good editing and camera apps available from Google Play to fill in the gaps.

This is absolutely a worthy device and fit your purpose with high-end specs: a large 5.5-inch screen as well as a good 13-megapixel main camera.

6. HTC Desire Eye: 13MP

As its name, HTC Desire Eye is a good idea for you who wanna take the best photos ever. HTC Desire Eye is a phone which packs both 13MP rear camera and 13MP front-facing camera. So it should be as good for selfies as the OPPO N1. Its secondary camera also has a dual-LED flash, HDR mode and an autofocus.

For more attractive features, HTC Desire Eye is supported Split Capture, Crop-Me-In, Video Face Tracking and many good specs as well.

7. Huawei Honor 3C: 5MP

Huawei Honor 3C has a good 5MP front-facing snapper, 8MP main camera and more interesting, at an impressive price tag. We find that its phone is the cheapest phone with a good front cam. So, if you want to own a good “selfie” phone and a reasonable cost. It’s your best choice.

8. ASUS ZenFone Selfie: 13MP

As the name suggests, ZenFone Selfie packs 13MP cameras both for the front and back. The selfie shooter comes with a number of face-enhancing features such as real-time ‘beautification’, dual real-tone flash and laser focus for sharper face snaps. Also, it is the first smartphone in the world to have laser auto focus function for taking selfies. ASUS claims that these features are ideal for “capturing life moments”, so it sure will make phone users amazed!

In term of specs, the ZenFone Selfie is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor, not Intel Atom processors like other ZenFone 2s. Other ZenFone Selfie specs are pretty much the same from ZenFone 2: 5.5-inch IPS display with 1080 x 1920 pixels, LTE, 2GB RAM and updated Android Lollipop operating system.

9. Samsung Galaxy J5: 5MP

Samsung equips their Samsung Galaxy J5 with a 5MP f/1.9 front camera along with a front-facing flash light like what we see in Galaxy S6. As for Galaxy J5 specs, it comes with a 5″ HD screen but the the processor isn’t quite clear. It is said to boast a 1.2GHz Snapdragon 410 paired with 1.5GB RAM and 16GB of expandable storage. The whole machine is powered by a 2,600mAh battery and Android 5.1 Lollipop, available in Black, White and Gold color.

Talking more specifically about the secondary cam, it includes 120 degree wide angle selfie and beautification mode. For the back, it owns a 13MP shooter.

10. Samsung Galaxy J7: 5MP

Samsung Galaxy J7 seems similar to J5 in some aspects such as the HD display but with a bigger screen, 5.5 inches to be specific. On the other hand, J7 would probably boast a Snapdragon 615 octa-core processor together with the same 1.5GB RAM. The battery of J7 is larger than its sibling J5; it is capable of 3,000mAh capacity. For the camera combo, there is no difference, so you can take quality beautiful photos with this excellent phablet.

WOW, 10 of the best smartphones with amazingly huge battery life. Each of them is different in terms of specs, design, and price. However, they would all be super helpful when carried on business trips or work in a long period without getting charged.

What’s new today? It’s gonna be about Meizu. Though Meizu M2 Note has just gone on sale for the last few days, it is like the company will create another chapter for another new product. That somehow explains for the current announcement from Meizu sent to media, inviting them to an event around the end of this month.

Rumored Meizu M2

Looking at the above picture, which is posted on Chinese tech sites, we notice that the new machine will dress a a white plastic cover. Many sources predict that it can be the next generation of Meizu M1, released in China earlier. So, we guess that if it is the case, they may call the handset Meizu M2.

More specifically, Meizu M2 Specs will feature a 4.6-inch 1920 x 1080 display and a Mediatek MT6753 processor. Furthermore, 2GB RAM and 32GB of storage will be on-board. The whole machine will be operated by Flyme based on Android 5.1 Lollipop. Apart from those pieces of information, nothing else is revealed for the debut of Meizu M2. Let’s wait for the manufacturer’s official claim.

To recap, we wonder if this is a wise strategy when Meizu keeps releasing new smartphones consecutively. The rumored Meizu M2 Launch will be confirmed soon as well as the price. What do you think about Meizu M2 Price in Malaysia?

Still in the process of preparing for Samsung Galaxy Note 5, the company decided to equip their new machine with USB 3.1 Type C as long as new interface. Some people consider USB 3.1 synonymous with Type-C designation, yet in fact it is a distinct standard. A phone with USB 3.1 Type-C seems to sport a transfer speed up to 10Gbps with compatible devices. Besides, the pair of standards supports 1.5A and 3A currents, which also helps improve power delivery.

As the Note 5 is getting more famous though it has not been confirmed for anything, recently some Samsung Galaxy Note 5 specs have been revealed. Specifically, the screen size will be made up to 5.89 inches but with less thickness than Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (7.9mm vs 8.5mm). If you like a phablet, you may consider this one. Other than that, unfortunately, the rumored display with 4K resolution is not coming true, according to the sources.

Other specs include a 4,100mAh battery as quoted. One more addition is that a more improved S-pen stylus will be seen together with Galaxy Note 5, like a special feature of Samsung Galaxy Note series as always. More than that Android 5.1.1 Lollipop will be in charge.

One important thing about the new Samsung flagship we cannot forget is its processor. The handset is likely to be powered by an Exynos 7422 chipset, which is a modified version of the 7420 built in Samsung Galaxy S6. It is also said that the speedy UFS 2.0 memory will appear on the larger model.

Perhaps we just need to wait a bit more since Samsung Galaxy Note 5 can be officially brought to IFA – a world’s leading trade show for consumer electronics and home appliances, in Berlin this September, 2015. Then, we will know exactly what it is capable of and how it looks like. So, do you like a Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Malaysia? And tell us what Samsung Galaxy Note 5 price in Malaysia do you expect?

After the launch of ASUS ZenFone 2 with 4GB RAM, it did open a new trend for smartphones this year. Many flagship phones with such huge RAM have attacked or will attack the market such as Xiaomi Mi Note Pro, ZTE Nubia X8, Bluboo X500, etc. And today, we will focus on one of the direct competitors to ASUS ZenFone 2 as well as other 4GB RAM devices: Lenovo K80! So, are you curious about how Lenovo K80 Specs can be compared to guys?

First, let’s check out the very basic key features of Lenovo K80 Specs:

In terms of price, Lenovo K80 price is set sat CNY 1,799 (RM1,085) for 4GB and 64GB of storage version. The company launches a lighter 2GB RAM and 32GB ver at CNY 1499 (RM872).

Together with Gionee Marathon M5, Gionee Elife E8 has recently been introduced at its launch event. After so many leaks spread away, finally it’s officially unveiled but with more surprises, the camera’s ability to be specific.

As you remember, the unique selling point of Gionee Elife E8 is its ability to take 120MP photos instead of just 100MP like we heard. Before Gionee, we had OPPO Find 7 which first surprised the smartphone world by its 50MP picture capability. So, it seems like Gionee is trying their best to impress consumers with the double pic quality.

Looking closer to the Gionee Elife E8 Specs, we learn that the handset is powered by MediaTek MT6795 (aka Helio X10) octa-core 64-bit CPU and 3GB RAM. Additionally, there are 64GB of storage and a microSD card slot to expand to memory if you wish to. On the other hand, Elife E8 owns a 6″ 2K screen, fingerprint scanner, 3,520mAh battery and Amigo UI 3.1 based on Android 5.1 Lollipop.

Gionee Elife E8 Launch: Amazing Camera

And of course, we cannot forget the star of the show! It’s the Elife E8 camera combo including a 24 mega-pixel primary camera and 8 mega-pixel secondary selfie snapper. We used to wonder why a 24MP cam can produce 120MP photos, and now we have the answer: Thanks to software. In other words, the sensor takes advantage of PDAF (phase detection autofocus) to have an extremely fast focus speed from 0.08 to 0.20 seconds, according to Gionee company. That’s really fast. As for the front cam, 8MP can make your selfies look great!

Last but not least, we as well as many other consumers care about the price. Gionee Elife E8 price is set at 2,299 Yuan (about RM1,385 may seem to be the Gionee Elife E8 price in Malaysia). Do you think that is reasonable?

In conclusion, Gionee new flagship smartphone this time really stands out. Its specs are strong enough; design is eye-catching, and the camera’s capability is awesome: 24MP shooter takes 120MP photos! How does that sound?
