Realme 15 and 15 Pro 5G to launch tomorrow in India: Expected price and how to watch livestream
The upcoming Realme 15 series is expected to deliver notable hardware updates, focusing on performance, AI capabilities, and durability enhancements.
The Realme 15 is anticipated to feature a 6.8-inch AMOLED display offering a 1.5K resolution and a high refresh rate of 144Hz. Peak brightness could reach up to 6,500 nits. The device is likely to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300+ processor, paired with a sizeable 7,000 mAh battery supported by 80W fast charging.
Camera specifications suggest a triple-lens setup at the rear, with a 50MP main sensor equipped with optical image stabilisation (OIS), an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP front-facing camera. The handset is expected to measure around 7.66mm in thickness and carry IP68/IP69 ratings, indicating high resistance to dust and water.
The Realme 15 may be offered in three colour options: Flowing Silver, Silk Pink, and Velvet Green.
The Pro model will reportedly share the same display and battery specifications as the standard variant but will likely be powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset. The rear camera configuration could include dual 50MP sensors with OIS, alongside a 50MP selfie camera.
Slightly thicker at 7.69mm, the Realme 15 Pro is also expected to come with IP68/IP69 certification. In terms of colour variants, the Pro version may be available in Flowing Silver, Velvet Green, and a new Silk Purple finish, replacing the pink option seen on the standard model.
The Realme 15 is expected to be priced below ₹ 20,000, while the Realme 15 Pro could be introduced at approximately ₹ 35,000. Both smartphones are expected to be sold via Flipkart, Realme's official online store, and offline retail outlets across India.
More details, including exact pricing and availability, will be revealed during the launch event.

Meta to stop political ads in European Union by October, blames bloc's new rules
Facebook and Instagram owner Meta said Friday that it will stop all political advertising in the European Union by October, blaming legal uncertainty over new rules designed to increase transparency in election campaigns. Meta said the rules introduce 'significant operational challenges and legal uncertainties. The social media giant said in a blog post that it will no longer allow ads for political, electoral and social issues on its platforms, which also include Threads, starting in early October. The company said it was making the decision because of the 27-nation EU's 'unworkable' Transparency and Targeting of Political Advertising regulations. The rules introduce 'significant operational challenges and legal uncertainties," Meta said. It's not the first Big Tech company to make such a move. Google said last year that it would stop serving EU users political ads before the rules take effect, in an announcement that cited similar reasons. Under the regulations, which are set to take effect on Oct 10, platforms will have to label political ads, disclosing who paid for them, and what campaign, referendum or legislative process they're connected to. Ads will have to be preserved in a database, and they can only be targeted to users under strict conditions. The rules introduce 'significant, additional obligations to our processes and systems that create an untenable level of complexity and legal uncertainty for advertisers and platforms operating in the EU,' Meta said. Violations can be hit with fines worth up to 6% of a company's annual global revenue. The rules are part of Brussels' wider efforts to counter foreign influence and manipulation in elections, and dovetail with the bloc's other regulations designed to protect citizens' privacy and hold platforms more accountable for internet users' online safety. But those moves clash with President Donald Trump's administration, which has lashed out at the EU's digital rulemaking. Meta said its decision won't affect users who want to debate politics on its platforms or prevent politicians, candidates and officer holders from "sharing political content organically". 'They just won't be able to amplify this through paid advertising,' it said. (AP) SCY SCY

Realme 15 Pro vs OnePlus Nord 5: Full comparison and every difference that you wanted to know
The Realme 15 Pro has officially arrived in India, entering the crowded mid-range smartphone space that already includes the recently launched OnePlus Nord 5. Both smartphones fall in the Rs 30,000 to Rs 40,000 price segment, and at first glance, they appear to offer similar features — large AMOLED displays, 5G processors, high-resolution cameras, and strong battery life.

Xiaomi G 32 32' QLED TV review in 5 points: Google TV and deep blacks make it stand out
Xiaomi launched the Smart G 32 TV earlier this month, positioning it as an entry-level model in its smart TV lineup, retailing for ₹ 13,999 in the Indian market. The brand advertises it as a QLED TV that notably comes with Google TV, unlike some Redmi models which use Fire TV, and it has a 60Hz refresh rate with an HD resolution of 1366×768. Having used the television for over two weeks to consume a wide range of content, from YouTube to various OTT services, it appears to be a great option for many at this price point of ₹ 13,999. Here's my quick review in 5 points. The television runs on Google TV, which is arguably its highlight, making it incredibly feature-rich. The user interface is well-organised and easy to navigate. Thanks to Google TV, it provides a best-in-class range of applications, meaning you will find every major OTT app. However, this versatility combined with the television's budget nature means that everyday operations are not always the most fluid. While it often remains smooth, it can occasionally fail to register or delay remote inputs by a couple of seconds. This can be annoying, but it is not a deal-breaker, especially if you primarily switch between only one or two OTT apps. As for loading times, opening applications like YouTube is rather quick, taking only a few seconds. For its price, I think the panel offers reasonable image quality. When used in dim conditions, the panel can appear a little splotchy, particularly with grey tones, but this is to be expected from a television at this price point. In a well-lit room, this is not noticeable, and the experience remains immersive. Given that it is a 32-inch HD panel rather than 4K or 1080p, the display is sharp enough for most content. So unless you have very high expectations or plan to use it with something like a PlayStation 5 for the best visuals, it should prove satisfactory. The visuals are usually crisp, and the colours are particularly nice, thanks to support for the DCI-P3 wide colour gamut. Built-in tech, like the Vivid Picture Engine 2, along with HDR10 support, also help the colours. As a QLED TV, it delivers good black levels, which is especially impressive in a room with ambient light. In a pitch-black room, some minor backlight bleed becomes apparent, but for the retail price, it is hard to complain about the overall picture quality. Coming to the viewing angles, while not the best, the visuals remain largely consistent when viewing from up to a 45-degree angle. However, when watching from an extreme corner, the image quality deteriorates significantly. The television features 20W speakers with support for Dolby Audio, DTS Virtual:X, and DTS-HD. In a room that is not excessively large, the television is capable of delivering great sound, particularly for OTT content. Dialogue in television shows is clear and without muffling. Music also sounds good, with ample lows and well-reproduced mids. However, I would advise buyers not to raise the volume too high; the sweet spot is around 70–75%, as the audio can become slightly muffled above this level. The television comes with a slim, ergonomic, and lightweight remote control. It includes most of the necessary functions, such as a shortcut to PatchWall, a home button, and quick-access buttons for various OTT apps like Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube, and SonyLIV. There are also convenient shortcuts for selecting the input source and quickly opening the settings menu. When it comes to 32-inch TVs, a large part of their use case tends to be in places like offices, hospitals, shops, and similar environments. These days, most people are opting for larger TVs for their homes. Given the typical use cases for 32-inch TVs, it makes sense that many buyers may want to move the TV around after purchasing it. In this case, the TV weighs just 3.1 kg, which I believe is a major advantage. It's easy to move around and feels almost weightless. So, if you're looking for something portable and easy to shift from one place to another, the Xiaomi G 32 QLED TV could be ideal.
