PlayStation 5 restock in India on February 22 at 12PM: Heres how you can grab the console

After months of waiting for the console, gamers can finally breathe a sigh of relief as the PS5 is finally back in stock in India. The PS5 was launched back in November of 2020 but has seen a bunch of issues affecting the manufacture and distribution of the console. Earlier this year, Sony claimed that the shortages affecting the PS5 were now over and that gamers would easily be able to purchase the console. We’re now seeing the effects of this as the console is back in India. We’ve already had one restock on February 7 and for the second time this month, the console is back on all major retail platforms such as Amazon India, Flipkart, ShopatSC, Vijay Sales and more. 

PS5 restock in India 

The console was available for pre-booking with a God of War Ragnarök Bundle and a standalone PS5 disc version. Earlier, gamers were forced to buy only the PS5 Horizon Forbidden West bundle regardless of what variant they wanted. There is no news on which bundle will be available during the restock but we’re guessing the console will come with the standard versions as well as a few bundled models. As stated earlier, we could get the God of War; Ragnarok bundle along with the basic disc version of the console. There is no word on whether the digital version of the console will be available or not. But, we’re hoping for the best. 

PS5 bundle price

Another thing to keep in mind is that the price of PS5 has changed after the November hike. The base model of the PS5 is priced at ₹54,990. The bundled versions of the console will be priced at ₹59,390. It is also rumoured that Sony has ordered a large shipment of consoles for the Indian market, so gamers should have no issues grabbing the console this time.

iQOO launched the iQOO Neo 7 5G on February 16 with its starting price below ₹30,000. On the other hand, we have Vivo V27 Pro which is the top variant in the upcoming Vivo V27 series. Vivo has announced that it is launching the Vivo V27 series in India on March 1 and most details about the phone are under wraps except for the design. However, the rumour is that Vivo is rebranding the Vivo S16 series which was launched in China a while back. The specifications of the Vivo V27 series are expected to be the same as the Vivo S16 series. The Vivo V27 series could include three phones which are Vivo V27, Vivo V27 Pro and Vivo V27e.

Here are the top 5 key specifications of Vivo V27 Pro (expected) and iQOO Neo 7.

1. Vivo V27 Pro vs iQOO Neo 7: Design

The design of the Vivo V27 series revealed by Vivo a few days ago was very similar to the Vivo S16 series. Vivo V27 Pro is going to have a LED ring light and a triple camera setup on the back just like Vivo S16 Pro in China had. The V27 Pro could also reportedly come with a curved display. It could come in Magic Blue and Noble Black colour options. 

iQOO Neo 7 5G, meanwhile has a plastic body and glass in front. The phone weighs 193g. On the back, it features a big square camera island which holds a triple camera setup and flashlight. The phone comes with a punch-hole notch wherein the front camera is placed.

The iQOO Neo 7 also has a triple camera setup with a 64-megapixel primary camera, a 2-megapixel macro lens and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. Sadly there is no ultrawide lens as most of the phones in this range are equipped with an ultrawide lens. The phone sports a 16-megapixel selfie camera.

5. Vivo V27 Pro vs iQOO Neo 7: Battery

Vivo V27 Pro is expected to have a 4,600mAh battery and support 66-watt fast charging. The iQOO Neo 7 has a 5000mAh battery with 120-watt fast charging support.

iQoo Neo 7 announced: Will this be the next mid-range gaming hero

iQoo has announced its latest mid-range offering, the iQoo Neo 7. In an immersion session in New Delhi, the brand showcased the iQoo Neo 7, which will be launched later this month as a successor to the iQoo Neo 6. The smartphone will come with MediaTek’s latest Dimensity 8200 SoC paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The iQoo Neo 7 will be launched in India on February 16 as the first MediaTek Dimensity 8200-powered smartphone in the country.

The iQoo Neo 7 will be launched as a gaming-centric mid-range offering and will come with many improvements over its predecessor. There will be a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1,300 nits of peak brightness. The smartphone will be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 8200 SoC paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The smartphone will also come with a triple rear camera setup that will include a primary 64-megapixel shooter, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens, and a 2-megapixel macro shooter. There is also going to be a 5,000mAh battery with support for 120W fast charging on the iQoo Neo 7.

iQoo Neo 7 specs and features

The iQoo Neo 7 will be the first smartphone in India to come with MediaTek’s Dimensity 8200 SoC, which is built on a 4nm process. Its predecessor, the iQoo Neo 6 came with a Snapdragon 870 chip, which is built on a 7nm process. The iQoo Neo 6 was a critically acclaimed mid-range smartphone for gaming. With the iQoo Neo 7, the company is saying that it has enhanced the gaming experience with a more powerful chip that has a maximum clock speed of 3.1GHz along with other gaming-centric features like frame rate priority that keeps the frame rate stable through long gaming sessions. There is also a Motion Control feature that enables Gyroscope customisation. 

During the immersion session, we got our hands on the iQoo Neo 7. From the back, the smartphone looks very similar to the iQoo Neo 6. However, upfront, we get a bigger display with thinner 1.6mm bezels and a much smaller 2.65mm chin. This makes up for a 93.11 screen-to-body ratio, as against iQoo Neo 6’s around 90% screen-to-body ratio. The icon Neo 7 also felt super lightweight to hold in our hands, and the camera array now has a circular module within it, which holds the two main cameras, one is placed on the metal camera frame. The smartphone’s overall frame, however, remains plastic. We can’t really talk about the display quality or performance of the device, but stay tuned for our detailed review of the iQoo Neo 7.
