ASUS ROG Flow X13

Positioned as the world’s first convertible gaming laptop, this one’s perfect for the everyday corporate executive who needs a stylish, light-weight laptop by day that can morph into a gaming beast after hours. It weighs just 1.3 kg and is thin enough (15.6 mm) to slip into your slimmest messenger bags. ASUS’ proprietary Ergo lift hinge allows the Flow X13 to swing from tablet to laptop mode in a flash. You can also opt for Tent mode to catch videos or for video calls. The X13 is powered by an AMD Ryzen 9 Octa-Core processor that combines with 16GB of RAM and 1TB of onboard storage. (Buy it on Vijay Sales online for Rs 1,39,990)

OPPO Reno 6 Pro 5G

Is a showstopper. Part of that appeal stems from OPPO’s proprietary Reno Glow effect with its ever-changing colour that looks different from different angles. It’s incredibly thin – just 7.6 mm and weighs under 180 gm despite a robust 4500 mAh battery under the hood. OPPO bundles its trademark 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charger that takes the battery level from 0 to 100% in 31 minutes flat.  The 6.55-inch display (1080 x 2400 pixels) features a 90Hz refresh rate. The quad cam has some cool tricks up its sleeve including the Bokeh Flare Portrait video option. (Available on Flipkart for Rs 39,990)
