Lava launches gaming phone
With the release of the Play Ultra 5G, a mid-range smartphone with MediaTek’s Dimensity 7300 chipset, Lava has made its foray into the gaming smartphone market. Starting on August 25, the phone, which costs ₹13,999 (with bank discounts), will only be sold on Amazon.
With a 6.67-inch FHD+ flat AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a maximum brightness of 1000 nits for fluid and vibrant images, the Play Ultra is designed to satisfy gamers. Additionally, it has 10-finger multi-touch capabilities, which makes it appropriate for intricate in-game controls. The device’s performance credentials were highlighted by its AnTuTu score of over 700,000. MediaTek’s HyperEngine technology improves frame rates, efficiency, and playability in general.
A 13MP camera on the front is used for selfies and video calls, while a 64MP Sony IMX682 primary sensor and a 5MP macro lens handle photography. Night Mode, HDR, Portrait, Panorama, Slow Motion, Dual View Video, and Google Lens integration are among the camera’s capabilities.
A 5000mAh cell with 33W rapid charging powers the battery, which can charge from 0% to 100% in 83 minutes. Lava claims that customers can anticipate talking for up to 45 hours and watching YouTube continuously for about 650 minutes.
