Read MoreRealme X7 Max Milky Way colour variant will be available in India for the first time. The company’s newest mid-range smartphone was launched in India a few weeks ago and was available in Silver and Black colour options.
The first sale of the Milky Way colour variant is scheduled for today at noon on Flipkart. Realme has been experimenting with some eye-catching colour options. The company also had Illuminating Yellow Realme 8 Pro which would glow in the dark. The new Milky Way colour of the Realme X7 Max takes it a step further with a design.
The Realme X7 Max is available in India in two variants. The base variant comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage which is priced at Rs 26,999. The 12GB + 256GB variant is priced at Rs 29,999. Apart from the Milky Way colour option, the device is also available in Mercury Silver and Asteroid Black options.
With the launch of Realme X7 Max, the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor made its debut in India. It is an eight-core chipset with one Ultra Arm Cortex-A78 core clocked at 3GHz, three Arm Cortex-A78 Super cores clocked at 2.6GHz, and four efficient Arm Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 2GHz. It supports n1/n28A/n40/n41/n77/n78/n79 5G bands in India.
You are looking at a 6.43-inch Super AMOLED display with Full HD resolution with 120Hz screen refresh rate in the visual department. It has a 360Hz touch sampling rate, 91.7% screen to body ratio, 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut coverage. The Realme X7 Max comes with a two-tone design with a glossy camera strip and the rest of the back with a matte finish.
The phone comes in two variants - 8GB RAM with 128GB UFS 3.1 storage and 12GB + 256GB, but it misses out on the microSD card slot. The Realme X7 Max sports a Sony IMX682 main camera with f/1.8 aperture, an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 2MP macro lens. Selfies are handled by a 16MP selfie shooter on the front.
The Realme X7 Max also comes with a 4,500mAh battery unit, but in terms of fast charging, you get 50W support instead of 65W. However, the company is bundling a 65W adapter in the box. In the software department, the Realme X7 Max runs on Realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11. Other features include a dual stereo speaker, 3.5mm headphone jack, an in-display fingerprint scanner, and Widevine L1 certification.

Read More1Password has announced a collaboration with crypto wallet provider Phantom that it hopes should help customers keep their cryptocurrency out of the reach of attackers. Under the partnership, the company’s password manager will be integrated directly into the Phantom wallet, which supports a variety of crypto tokens and NFTs housed on the Solana blockchain. By selecting the new “Save in 1Password” option, Phantom users will be able to automatically populate a 1Password listing that contains all of the credentials required to both access their wallet and transact using Solana-based tokens.

This survey shouldn't take more than 60 seconds of your time, and entrants from the UK and US will have the chance to enter a draw for a £100 Amazon gift card (or equivalent in USD). Thank you for taking part. Since the price of Bitcoin began to skyrocket in late 2020, many millions more people have become cryptocurrency owners. However, storing crypto and other blockchain-based tokens in a secure manner is not as simple as perhaps it should be. As a multitude of security incidents have made clear, storing cryptocurrency in a so-called custodial wallet (i.e. a wallet managed by a cryptocurrency exchange) is not ideal, because major exchanges attract a significant amount of attention from cyber actors. In an optimal scenario, cryptocurrency should be stored in offline hardware wallets that are inaccessible to attackers. But for the sake of convenience and accessibility, many people opt for third-party “hot wallets” like Phantom, which still allow users to take control of their own private key (without which, no one can access the tokens in an account). According to 1Password, the new partnership will allow people to store their wallet login credentials and private keys in a secure fashion, which will have the knock-on effect of bringing new demographics to the crypto space. “Crypto innovations are reshaping the world, but for many it seems too confusing or risky to join this transformation,” said Jeff Shiner, 1Password CEO. “Our technology partnership with Phantom is another example of 1Password making technology more human-centric. Together, we are simplifying management for existing investors as well as lowering the barrier to entry for those eager to safely buy and trade digital assets through a platform they know and trust.” TechRadar Pro has asked 1Password whether users can expect future partnerships with wallet providers that service the wider crypto ecosystem, beyond Solana.1Password doubles down on crypto
