Oppo launches budget phone K13x 5G in India, says it has damage-proof body

Oppo has launched the K13x 5G in India. The K13x starts at Rs 11,999 and brings a bunch of specs and features, all geared at making the phone last longer. Oppo says the K13x has 'damage-proof' body and a large 6,000mAh battery built to offer at least 5 years of 'dependable' use with minimal degradation. It isn't immediately clear if Oppo is using a battery based on the latest Silicon-Carbon technology. We will update this copy once we get more information. advertisementThe Oppo K13x 5G comes in a choice of Midnight Violet and Sunset Peach, both with a different back panel design. Both have a frosted finish on top of what appears to be a full plastic chassis with the peach variant rocking a wavy pattern. This chassis, Oppo claims, is damage-proof, with 160-percent higher impact resistance over the previous generation. The 360-degree armour body makes it more durable and resistance to drops, Oppo adds further. The overall resistance extends to the phone's ingress protection. The K13x is also IP65, a big step up over the K12x's IP54. On the front, the Oppo K13x 5G has a tall 6.67-inch 720p resolution LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate, which can top 1,000nits in high brightness mode (HBM). It has a hole punch cutout at the centre housing an 8-megapixel camera for selfies. On the back, it has two more cameras, a 50-megapixel wide and another 2-megapixel depth or portrait camera. advertisement Powering the K13x is the 6-nanometre MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor paired with up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of UFS2.2 storage. Running the show is a 6,000mAh battery with 45W fast charging support. Software-wise, it has ColorOS 15 with Android 15. Biometrics are handled by a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.

Nothing Phone (3) India launch in 1 week: Full specs leaked

Nothing is just a week away from launching its next big smartphone in India. The Nothing Phone 2 was launched almost 2 years back and a new version has been pending for a long time now. The Nothing Phone (3) is officially set to arrive on July 1 and ahead of the launch, almost everything about the phone has leaked online — from key specifications to expected pricing and design changes. Here are all the details based on the Phone (3) India launch in 1 week: Full specs leakedThis time, the focus seems to be on polishing the experience rather than going for flashy hardware. The Nothing Phone (3) is confirmed to pack Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip. It is not the most powerful flagship processor, but it still looks like a solid upgrade in many starters, the camera setup is getting a serious boost. Leaks suggest the Phone (3) will feature a new 50-megapixel periscope lens with 3x optical zoom. This would be in addition to the existing 50-megapixel main and 50-megapixel ultra-wide cameras. Even the front camera is said to jump from 32 megapixels to 50 megapixels, which could lead to better selfies and video calls. There's also hope that this time, the front camera might finally get autofocus. The display is expected to stay largely the same, with a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED screen. It may not be a big change, but the panel should still offer smooth refresh rates and energy efficiency. Battery life, however, could see real improvement. The Nothing Phone (3) is said to come with a 5,150mAh battery, up from 4,700mAh on the previous model. More impressively, it might support 100W wired charging, making it one of the fastest-charging phones in its class. Wireless charging will reportedly continue as small but welcome change is support for eSIM, which was missing on last year's model. This gives users more flexibility, especially those who frequently switch between networks. Some leaked images, though not very clear, show what looks like a refreshed camera layout on the back. Nothing has already confirmed that the Nothing Phone (3) will move away from the original Glyph design, replacing it with a new type of LED notification system, though exact details remain under Phone (3): Leaked price detailsThe Nothing Phone (3) could arrive in two variants: One with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage and a higher-end version with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. In the US, the device is tipped to cost $799 (roughly Rs 68,000), but the India price is likely to be Nothing founder Carl Pei hinted at a more premium pricing strategy, suggesting the phone could be priced around GBP 800, which is close to Rs 90,000 when converted into the Indian currency. However, that kind of jump from the Nothing Phone 2's launch price of Rs 44,999 might not go down well with Indian buyers and is not even possible. A more reasonable price range is Rs 50,000 to Rs 60,000, which seems likely if the brand wants to remain that range, the Phone (3) would go up against phones like the Pixel 9a and the upcoming iPhone 16e, both known for clean software and balanced performance. If Nothing manages to deliver well on both hardware and software, the Phone (3) might hit the right note for users looking for a stylish yet powerful device.
