Samsung Galaxy Note 5

According to sources close to Samsung's plans, the Galaxy Note 5 is being referred to as Project Noble (SM-N920) internally, reports Sammobile. Apart from 2K or 4K Super-Amoled display and Exynos 7422 SoC already tipped, the Note 5 is like previous Note handsets expected to come with S Pen functionality.

The latest report claims the both Project Noble and Project Zero 2 will come with regular accessories such as the Clear View cover, however, will also feature a Keyboard cover. While not many details are known about it, the name itself tips some sort of physical keypad accessory.

We hope the Clear View cover this time would be a much improved version than what is currently available for Galaxy S6 and Edge handsets. Notably, the Galaxy S6 andGalaxy S6 Edge owners around the globe seem are facing an issue with the official Clear View cover. As per users the Clear View cover by Samsung is said to be the culprit for several minute yet visible scratches on the handset's Corning Gorilla Glass 4-protected display.

Previous leaks of the Project Zen or Project Zero 2 handset dual-edge display phablet had tipped it would come with either a 5.4-inch or 5.5-inch dual-curved Super AMOLED display. The device might also house a hexa-core Snapdragon 808 SoC, 32GB of inbuilt storage, 16-megapixel rear camera with OIS, and 5-megapixel front-facing camera.

Asus ZenBook UX305FAsus ZenBook UX305F

Asus ZenBook UX305F

The ZenBook UX305F is available in two colours, white and what Asus calls Obsidian Stone. We received the latter, and it's an unusual purplish-brown colour that looks different under different types of light.The UX305F is remarkably thin at 12.3mm and weighs just 1.2kg, making it very easy to carry around in one hand. Even the charger that ships with it is small and convenient, barely any larger than a tablet charger. You'll find two USB 3.0 ports and a full-sized SD card slot on the left, with another USB 3.0 port, Micro-HDMI video out, headset socket, LED status indicators and charger inlet on the right.

Specifications and software
At the heart of the ZenBook UX305F is a Core M-5Y10 processor, part of Intel's new line of ultra-low-power devices for exactly this kind of thin-and-light laptop. It has two CPU cores with Hyper-Threading and can scale its speed from 800MHz to 2.0GHz in order to balance power requirements. It also stays under a 4.5W TDP, which allows the UX305 to dispense with a cooling fan.The laptop comes with 4GB of RAM which cannot be upgraded, and a 256GB M.2 SSD module. Graphics are handled by the integrated Intel HD 5300 GPU. The 13.3-inch screen has a resolution of 1920x1080 and there's also Wi-Fi g/n and Bluetooth 4.0. Asus advertises superior sound thanks to a tie-up with Bang & Olufsen. No other configuration options are available in India at this time, though more RAM, larger SSDs and higher-resolution screen options might come in later.

Performance
The ZenBook UX305F is a pleasure to work with. We appreciated how quickly it booted and how responsive it felt when loading and switching between programs. It's also completely silent thanks to the lack of fans and moving parts, which subtly gives this laptop an even more premium feel. The keyboard is crisp and comfortable. We sometimes found ourselves missing a touchscreen, but this was never a real annoyance.

With that said, the Core M processor definitely isn't a powerhouse. You'll be quite happy with it for most productivity and entertainment needs but we wouldn't try anything mission-critical on this laptop - and you can pretty much forget about playing 3D games at high quality settings.

Price (MRP): Rs. 49,999

Sennheiser Urbanite

Sennheiser has spent the last few years building up a strong distribution network in India, and the brand can now be found in hundreds of brick-and-mortar stores all over the country. This significant presence that has helped it become one of the most recognisable headphone brands, and with prices ranging from under Rs. 1,000 to over Rs. 1,00,000, Sennheiser truly has something for everyone.

Sennheiser has been pushing its 'lifestyle' agenda for some time now to take on the growing might of Beats all over the world. The company has had some success with its lifestyle-driven Momentum headphones, and the new Rs. 15,990 Urbanite on-ears are a further attempt at capturing the attention of buyers who want both good looks and great sound.

Specifications, Design and Comfort
The Sennheiser Urbanite features an on-ear design, where the ear cups sit on your ears rather than surround them completely. It features closed-back casings that contain dynamic drivers, with a rather low 18Ohms of impedance. Sound pressure levels measure at 118dB, with a frequency response range of 16-22,000Hz. The headphones weigh 260g and have a detachable, tangle-resistant 1.2m flat cable. 

Performance
We used our reference Fiio X1 high resolution player, an Android smartphone and a Windows laptop as source devices when reviewing the Sennheiser Urbanite headphones. Focus tracks were Pharrell Williams' Gust Of Wind and Mark Ronson's Uptown Funk in 16/44.1 FLAC; and Croatia Squad's Get You Off and Dire Straits' Money For Nothing in 320kbps MP3.

Price (MRP): Rs. 15,990

Xiaomi Mi Band

Xiaomi Mi Band

Xiaomi is creating a lot of buzz across product categories at the moment. Excellent pricing has kept demand for its products high, and limited supplies have increased their appeal.

Design and features
The Mi Band is comprised of two components - the band itself and a Bluetooth capsule that tracks your activity. The product has no screen, but its three LED indicators let you know how close you are to achieving your daily step goal at any given point. The capsule can track your sleep patterns, let you unlock your phone without a password when it is nearby, and vibrate to alert you about incoming calls and alarms. It has a smooth metal surface with the three LEDs on top, though the side in contact with your arm is made of plastic.

Tracking and accuracy
The lack of a screen means that the Xiaomi Mi Band relies heavily on the companion Mi Fit app for iOS and Android. The app isn't very well designed and it took us a few attempts to create a Mi account and sign up for the required service. The app initially didn't allow us to log in till we made a few attempts, but that was fixed with an update midway through the review period.

Sony SmartWatch 3

Sony isn't new to smartwatches, as is obvious from the '3' at the end of this product's name. The first and second iterations didn't become quite as popular as Sony would have liked, and both had too many weaknesses to be considered competitive in the smartwatch category. This latest model has made one key change: it uses the excellent Android Wear operating system.

At Rs. 19,990, the SmartWatch 3 is also the most expensive Android Wear device available in India right now. Considering that the popular LG G Watch and even theMotorola Moto 360 are available for much less, does Sony offer enough to justify the high price tag? We find out in our review.

Design and display

When the LG G Watch and Samsung Gear Live were launched last year, the primary criticism they faced was the square design, which made them look less like watches and more like boxy wrist computers. The Sony SmartWatch 3 uses this same square design, with a 1.6-inch 320x320- pixel display. The resolution is slightly better than that of the Moto 360 and a fair bit better than that of the G Watch. The difference is visible; it's cleaner and sharper. Sunlight visibility is also better thanks to the improved brightness. However, we still prefer the look of the round Moto 360. Other Android Wear options such as the LG G Watch R, Asus ZenWatch and Huawei Watch are also far more attractive than the square SmartWatch 3.

Specifications and Performance

The Sony SmartWatch 3 uses a 1.2GHz quad-core processor from Broadcom, making it the first Android smartwatch to utilise a Broadcom SoC. Other specifications are fairly standard, including 4GB of internal memory (which can only be used for storing audio for use with Google Play Music), 512MB of RAM, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC, an accelerometer, compass, gyroscope, GPS, ambient light sensor, and a 420mAh battery. As with all Android Wear devices, the SmartWatch 3 needs an Android smartphone running version 4.3 of the OS or above with the Android Wear app installed. The watch is currently running Wear 5.0.2, which is the most current version of Android Wear available.

OnePlus 10000mAh Power Bank at Rs.1,399

OnePlus, as promised, has launched its Power Bank in India. It is now available to buy via exclusive online partner Amazon.

Called the OnePlus Power Bank, it features a 10000mAh capacity, and will be available in Silk White and Sandstone Black colours, just like the OnePlus One smartphones themselves. It is now available to buy at Rs. 1,399.

The OnePlus Power Bank bears two USB ports for simultaneous charging, and takes roughly 5.5 hours to charge itself. It has dimensions 142.8x72.6x16.2mm, and weighs 220 grams. The Power Bank sports battery indicator LEDs while also offering safety features to prevent overcharging and overheating. The box includes the OnePlus Power Bank and a USB cable.
