Vivo T4R Debuts in India with Quad-Curved AMOLED Display and Dimensity 7400 Chipset
Vivo has unveiled its latest budget 5G smartphone in India — the Vivo T4R — joining the T series lineup alongside the Vivo T4, T4x, and T4 Lite. The T4R stands out with a premium quad-curved AMOLED display, stylish design, and solid hardware under the hood. This launch closely follows the debut of the iQOO Z10R, and both phones share a similar design language and specifications, yet the T4R carves its own identity with unique colour variants and Vivo's branding. The smartphone features a 6.77-inch quad-curved AMOLED screen that supports a 120Hz refresh rate and delivers up to 1,800 nits of peak brightness. Vivo claims that the T4R is the slimmest quad-curved AMOLED smartphone in India, a distinction also previously attributed to the iQOO Z10R. At just 7.39mm thick and weighing 183.5g, the phone maintains a sleek and lightweight profile. Powering the T4R is the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 5G processor, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The phone is being marketed as the fastest Android device in its price range, with an AnTuTu benchmark score of around 750,000. To maintain performance under heavy use, especially during gaming, Vivo has added a large graphite cooling system. Battery performance is another area where the T4R holds its ground. It packs a robust 5,700mAh battery, supported by 44W fast wired charging. While this is slower than iQOO's 90W charger, Vivo includes a Bypass Charging feature that reduces overheating during gaming sessions. The phone also carries IP68/69 water and dust resistance ratings and is certified with MIL-STD 810H military-grade durability. On the software front, the T4R runs Funtouch OS 15 based on Android 15. Vivo promises two years of Android OS updates and three years of security patches. AI-powered tools are embedded throughout the user experience, including AI Documents, AI Note Assist, Circle to Search, AI Screen Translation, and AI Transcript, enhancing productivity and daily usability. For photography, the Vivo T4R features a 50MP Sony IMX882 main sensor on the rear capable of shooting 4K video. It's accompanied by a 2MP depth sensor. The front-facing camera is a 32MP shooter, which also supports 4K recording — a rare feature in this segment. The Vivo T4R is available in two vibrant shades — Arctic White and Twilight Blue. It starts at Rs 17,499 for the 8GB + 128GB model. The 8GB + 256GB and 12GB + 256GB variants are priced at Rs 19,499 and Rs 21,499 respectively. Sales begin August 5 via Flipkart, Vivo India's e-store, and partner retail outlets. Customers can avail up to Rs 2,000 in instant discounts via select bank cards or opt for a Rs 2,000 exchange bonus, along with a 6-month no-cost EMI option. With a competitive price, flagship-like design, and feature-rich experience, the Vivo T4R is poised to make a strong mark in India's value smartphone segment.

How this popular game is helping UK gamers bypass new age verification laws
(Image via Kojima) Gamers in the UK have reportedly discovered a method to bypass online age verification checks, which have now been mandated in the country on some websites, by using a popular video game. Recently, a user on the social media platform X (earlier Twitter) named Dany Sterkhov claimed to have bypassed Discord's age verification by using the photo mode in the video game Death Stranding . This discovery comes just days after the country started enforcing the Online Safety Act, a set of laws passed in 2023. These laws aim to prevent children from accessing pornography or other content deemed "harmful," including material related to self-harm, suicide, and eating disorders. Companies failing to comply with the new regulations face potential fines of up to 18 million pounds ($24.2 million) or 10% of their global revenue, whichever amount is greater. According to the U.K.'s media regulator, Ofcom , platforms such as Bluesky, Discord, Grindr, Reddit, and X have already committed to implementing age verification systems. In a recent statement, Ofcom executive chief Dame Melanie Dawes said: 'Prioritising clicks and engagement over children's online safety will no longer be tolerated in the UK. Our message to tech firms is clear – comply with age-checks and other protection measures set out in our Codes, or face the consequences of enforcement action from Ofcom.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Kate Middleton Dared To Wear This Outfit And It Took Prince William's Breath Away Crowdy Fan Undo How gamers are bypassing age verification laws in UK Several companies depend on third-party services to conduct age verification. These systems usually allow users to either upload a government-issued photo ID or submit selfies for verification. Discord uses a service called k-ID. According to a report by The Verge, users were able to complete the process by using the photo mode in Death Stranding, pointing their phone at the screen to scan the face of the game's main character, Sam Bridges. The system prompted them to open and close his mouth—something the game allowed him to replicate. The report added that the same approach worked with Reddit's age verification system, which Persona manages. However, it was unsuccessful with Bluesky's verification process, which relies on a platform called Yoti. In the US, nearly half the states have passed laws requiring similar age checks for access to adult content. Additionally, nine states have implemented laws mandating parental consent or age verification for users on social media platforms. Attempts to bypass these systems weren't limited to gamers using Death Stranding. ProtonVPN shared on X that it experienced a more than 1,400% increase in sign-ups in the UK following the introduction of age verification rules. VPNs allow users to browse as though they are in a different region, making it easier to get around local age restrictions. iQOO Z10R 5G goes on Sale: BEST Budget Phone for Content Creators?

Realme 15 Pro 5G vs iQOO Z10R: Pick the one that suits you best
Choosing a powerful phone today is not just about price. It is about the right mix of speed, battery, camera and display. The Realme 15 Pro 5G and the iQOO Z10R are two phones that aim to offer great performance without breaking the bank. Both come packed with premium features and have gained attention for different reasons. Let us compare them in detail. Compare Realme 15 pro 5g and iQOO Z10: Performance, display, and battery showdown Display and Build Realme 15 Pro 5G offers a 6.8 inch display with a resolution of 1280 x 2800 pixels and 6500 nit peak brightness. It supports a refresh rate of 144 Hz, which means scrolling and gaming feel smoother. The iQOO Z10R comes with a 6.77-inch Quad Curved AMOLED and a resolution of 1080 x 2392 pixels, supporting 120 Hz refresh. While both deliver crisp visuals and fast response, Realme's slightly larger screen and IP65 rating for dust and water resistance give it a slight edge in build quality. Performance and Speed iQOO Z10R runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 processor, designed to handle demanding apps, high-end games, and heavy multitasking. It ensures lag-free performance and improved power efficiency. Realme 15 Pro 5G is powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, which is also reliable for day-to-day tasks and mid-range gaming. However, if raw power is your top priority, both phones compete closely on speed and multi-tasking. Camera and Battery In terms of camera, Realme comes with a 50 megapixel main camera as well as a 50 megapixel front shooter. iQOO matches this with its own 50 megapixel primary sensor and a slightly higher 32 megapixel front camera. For selfie lovers, iQOO is a better option. When it comes to battery, while the Realme variant offers a massive 7000 mAh unit, the iQOO is equipped with a 5700 mAh battery. Realme supports faster charging at 80 watts compared to iQOO's 44 watts, giving you quicker top-ups.
