The recent tech drops have felt like a wishlist from a slightly delusional futurist: laptops with RTX 5070s, phones that can blind you with 5,000 nits of brightness, and smart glasses that whisper AI replies into your ear like a charming little devil. While Apple did its usual "here’s everything coming this year" keynote, the real show was spread across multiple stages, from India’s budget bombshells to Nintendo's long-overdue handheld upgrade. Here's everything worth knowing. 

Biggest Tech Launches From Apple, Nintendo, OnePlus And More

Nintendo Switch 2 Launched 

Price: Rs 75,999 on Amazon India 

Nintendo’s long-rumoured sequel has finally arrived. The Switch 2 gets a larger 7.9-inch LCD touchscreen (1920x1080, HDR10), supports up to 120Hz refresh rate, and outputs 4K@60fps when docked. Joy-Cons now attach magnetically and support mouse functionality. The console runs on a custom Nvidia chip that can handle big-league titles like Cyberpunk 2, Split Fiction, and Hogwarts Legacy. 

Vivo T4 Ultra Launched in India

• Rs 37,999 (8GB + 256GB) 
• Rs 39,999 (12GB + 256GB) 
• Rs 41,999 (12GB + 512GB) 

With a peak brightness of 5,000 nits, quad-curved AMOLED display, and a 50MP periscope camera, this is Vivo flexing hard. Under the hood: MediaTek Dimensity 9300+, 90W fast charging, and FuntouchOS 15 based on Android 15. Bonus: Google’s Circle to Search is built-in.

Asus' new fleet comes armed with RTX 50-series GPUs, WUXGA or Nebula displays, and specs that say “don’t talk to me unless you're on liquid cooling.” All models run Windows 11 and are built for serious frame-chasers 

Motorola Edge 60 Arrives 

Price: Rs 25,999 (12GB + 256GB) 

Motorola’s latest mid-ranger has specs that shame some flagships: quad-curved 1.5K pOLED display, Dimensity 7400 chip, a triple 50MP rear camera setup, and a 5,500mAh battery. Add expandable storage, Android 15, and a Mykonos Blue colour option. Not bad for a phone with Pantone-certified shades. 

Huawei Band 10 With 14-Day Battery 

Price:  

• Rs 6,499 (polymer case) 
• Rs 6,999 (aluminium case) 

Huawei’s latest smart band is for the kind of people who track sleep even on weekends. Features include a 1.47-inch AMOLED display, 100 workout modes, 5ATM water resistance, and sensoRs  for HRV, SpO2, stress, and mood swings. Also: a bizarrely comforting "Emotional Wellbeing Assistant." 

Redmi Pad 2 with 9,000mAh Battery 

Price (Europe): India Prices on June 18th  

• £169 (Rs 18,000 approx) for 4GB + 128GB

The Android 15 tablet offers an 11-inch 2.5K display, Helio G100 Ultra SoC, Dolby Atmos speakers, and battery life that will outlast your will to keep watching reels. 

OnePlus Pad 3 Gets Beefed Up 

Price: TBD (India) 

This beast packs a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, a 13.2-inch 3.4K display with 144Hz refresh, and a 12,140mAh battery with 80W SuperVOOC charging. Available in Frosted Silver and Storm Blue, it's a powerful laptop disguised as a tablet. 

OnePlus 13s Debuts with Flagship Power 

Price:  

• Rs 54,999 (12GB + 256GB) 
• Rs 59,999 (12GB + 512GB) 

The new OnePlus flagship brings a Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, 5,850mAh battery, AI-driven shortcuts via the new Plus Key, and a 1.5K LTPO display with Glove Mode. The dual 50MP camera setup doesn’t hurt either. 

Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses  

Price: Starting Rs 29,990 in India 

Launched in May but still ahead of the curve, the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses come with Meta AI baked in, allowing voice prompts, photo and video capture, and even livestreaming. The open-ear audio system is surprisingly crisp, and the glasses can respond to prompts like “send a photo to Mom” without you lifting a finger. A battery case gives you up to 36 hours of use. Available in over 150 frame-lens combos, including the classic Wayfarer.
