IP68 and IP69 rating: covers dust ingress, immersion and high-pressure, high-temperature water jets
0.799cm thickness at 199g: a slim frame despite the 7050mAh cell

Performance, Memory and Storage

At the centre of the iQOO Z11 5G is the MediaTek Dimensity 7500 Turbo, which iQOO describes as the first use of the chip in India. The company states the platform scores over 1.2 million on AnTuTu, delivers 15% smoother performance, and pairs an 8th-generation NPU that it claims doubles AI performance and computes on-device AI tasks 2.7x faster. Thermals are handled by a 3800mm² vapour chamber, described by iQOO as 2.5x larger in cooling area.

Three memory tiers are on the listing:

6GB + 128GB
8GB + 128GB
8GB + 256GB
12GB + 256GB

Actual usable RAM and storage sit below the stated figures once the operating system and pre-installed apps are accounted for. Extended RAM on this device is a software feature rather than physical memory.

Display Specs

The panel measures 17.35cm (6.83 inches) on the diagonal and is a 3D curved AMOLED running at 2800×1260 resolution. Refresh rate tops out at 144Hz, and iQOO quotes 2000 nits of HBM brightness, describing it as the brightest display in the segment. Measured across the full rectangle, the usable display area is slightly smaller than the quoted 6.83 inches.

Camera

Two sensors sit on the rear:

50MP Sony IMX882 (Main): f/1.79 aperture with optical image stabilisation
8MP Ultra-Wide: f/2.2 aperture

The front camera uses a 32MP sensor. Both front and rear cameras record 4K video at 30fps.

Shooting Modes

Rear (main): Night Mode, Portrait, Photo, Video, 50MP, Panorama, Ultra HD Document, Slow Motion, Time-lapse, Super Moon, Professional

Rear (ultra-wide): Night Mode, Video, Time-Lapse, Professional

Front: Night Mode, Portrait, Photo, Video

Battery & Charging

A 7050mAh BlueVolt battery powers the phone, with 44W wired charging and Super Battery Saver support. iQOO rates the cell for 1,600 charge cycles and states it holds over 80% of its capacity after five years. The 44W figure refers to peak output using the bundled iQOO charger, measured in the company’s own laboratory, and real-world charging speed varies with the usage scenario and ambient conditions.

Connectivity

Wireless coverage runs to Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.4, with a USB Type-C port and OTG support. Positioning uses GPS (L1), BeiDou, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS and NavIC.

The device takes two nano SIMs and supports 5G + 5G dual SIM dual standby.

5G NR: n1/n3/n5/n8/n28B/n38/n40/n41/n48/n66/n77/n78

Durability

The iQOO Z11 5G carries an IP68 and IP69 rating under IEC 60529-2013. iQOO’s IP68 test submerged the phone in static fresh water to 1.5 metres for up to 120 minutes with under 5°C difference between water and device temperature. The IP69 test used a nozzle at 0°, 30°, 60° and 90°, a flow rate of 15 L/min, water at roughly 80°C, and 30 seconds per position with the USB port facing down.

This is not a professional waterproof phone. iQOO notes that water and dust resistance is not permanent and degrades with daily use, that the phone should not be submerged or exposed to seawater and other liquids, and that liquid damage is not covered by warranty. The company also states the phone carries military-grade durability certification for scratch and drop resistance.

Software

The phone ships with OriginOS 6.0, which includes Office Kit, Origin Island, and the Record & Recap feature set. iQOO describes Record & Recap as real-time AI transcription, translation and summarisation aimed at classes, meetings and video. The company commits to 3 years of Android updates and 5 years of security updates.

The three M6 model numbers are separate configurations within that tier, so check the individual Amazon product page for the price attached to each one, along with price history, verified purchase reviews and current lowest price offers.

What We Like About the 2026 Mac mini

12-core CPU and 12-core GPU on the M6: two more cores each than the previous generation, per Apple.
307GB/s memory bandwidth on the M5 Pro: close to double the 170GB/s the M6 carries, which matters for large datasets and high-bitrate video.
Up to 64GB unified memory on the M5 Pro: enough headroom to hold larger local language models in memory.
Thunderbolt 5 on MHQN4LL/A: a generation ahead of the Thunderbolt 4 ports on the M6 models.
2.5Gb Ethernet as standard, 10Gb optional: wired networking starts above the 1Gb rate common on compact desktops.

M6 Chip: MHQK4LL/A, MHQL4LL/A and MHQM4LL/A

The three M6 model numbers share the same silicon. Apple specifies a 12-core CPU and a 12-core GPU, both up by two cores over the prior generation, with a Neural Accelerator in each GPU core. Apple claims the M6 delivers the fastest single-threaded CPU performance of any chip it has shipped.

The Dual 16-core Neural Engine is rated by Apple at up to 2x the performance of the previous generation. Against the M4 Mac mini, Apple’s stated figures are up to 4x faster AI performance, 2x faster storage and graphics, and 40 percent faster CPU performance.

Apple’s application-level comparisons for the M6, all against earlier Mac mini models:

Workload	vs. Mac mini with M1	vs. Mac mini with M4
LLM prompt processing (LM Studio)	Up to 13.5x faster	Up to 4.8x faster
Spreadsheet calculations (Microsoft Excel)	Up to 2.3x faster	Up to 1.5x faster
Gaming with ray tracing (Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition)	Not stated	Up to 2x faster

Memory starts at 16GB of unified memory and is configurable to 32GB, with bandwidth up to 170GB/s.

M5 Pro Chip: MHQN4LL/A

MHQN4LL/A is the M5 Pro configuration. Apple specifies up to an 18-core CPU and up to a 20-core GPU, the latter with an enhanced shader core and third-generation ray tracing hardware. Neural Accelerators sit in each GPU core here as well.

Memory is the clearer separation between the two tiers: the M5 Pro supports up to 64GB of unified memory with 307GB/s of bandwidth, against 32GB and 170GB/s on the M6.

Apple’s stated comparisons for the M5 Pro:

Workload	vs. Mac mini with M2 Pro	vs. Mac mini with M4 Pro
LLM prompt processing (LM Studio)	Up to 8.5x faster	Up to 4x faster
Rendering with ray tracing (Blender)	Up to 4.5x faster	Up to 1.4x faster
Image processing (Affinity)	Up to 2.1x faster	Up to 1.5x faster

Ports, Networking and Display Support

Port counts match across both chips, with the Thunderbolt generation the difference. Ethernet is 2.5Gb as standard, and Apple offers a 10Gb option. New on this generation is genlock support over USB-C, for synchronising video output across devices.

Port	M6 models (MHQK4LL/A, MHQL4LL/A, MHQM4LL/A)	M5 Pro model (MHQN4LL/A)
Thunderbolt (rear)	3 x Thunderbolt 4	3 x Thunderbolt 5

Headphone jack (front)	1	1
External displays	Up to 3	Up to 3
Wireless	Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6 (N1 chip)	Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6 (N1 chip)

Wireless is handled by the Apple-designed N1 chip on both, covering Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.

On-Device AI, Apple Intelligence and Siri

Apple positions the chips as able to run demanding AI workflows, including large language models, on the device rather than in the cloud. Apple Intelligence covers writing and general task assistance, and Siri AI is described by Apple as a more capable assistant, with the company stating both operate under its privacy protections. The LM Studio figures above are Apple’s own measure of that local-model performance.

Size, Build and Recycled Materials

The enclosure stays at roughly five inches square, small enough to sit under a monitor. Front and rear I/O follows from that: with the unit tucked away, the two front USB-C ports and the headphone jack stay reachable.

Apple states the 2026 Mac mini is made with 50 percent recycled material overall, including 100 percent recycled aluminium in the enclosure and 100 percent recycled rare earth elements in all magnets.

macOS 27 and Apple Device Integration

Both configurations ship with macOS 27. Features Apple cites for day-to-day work include window tiling and Sidecar. Integration with other Apple hardware covers iPhone Mirroring, which puts an iPhone’s screen on the Mac, and clipboard sharing between an iPhone and the Mac.

SanDisk Optimus 5100 NVMe SSD 1TB (SDSP51100TAN-000E0) Launched in India – PCIe 4.0 x4, 7,100MB/s Read, 6,700MB/s Write, 600 TBW, 500GB and 2TB Models Also Listed

SanDisk has launched the Optimus 5100 NVMe SSD 1TB (SDSP51100TAN-000E0) in India. The drive is an M.2 2280 internal SSD on a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface, rated for sequential reads of up to 7,100MB/s and sequential writes of up to 6,700MB/s.

The price currently showing against the SanDisk Optimus 5100 NVMe SSD 1TB (SDSP51100TAN-000E0) listing is the MRP, not the launch price: Rs.85,700. The actual launch selling price is expected to be lower, and the Amazon India listing is expected to be updated with the launch price in the coming days, so it is worth checking the product page again after a few days.

Note: why SSD prices are this high right now: DRAM and NAND contract prices have risen steeply through 2026 as AI data centre buildouts absorbed supply and manufacturers shifted capacity to server parts, which has pushed consumer SSD prices up sharply.

Key specs highlights include 1M IOPS random read and 1.3M IOPS random write, 8th generation SanDisk BiCS QLC 3D CBA NAND, a 600 TBW endurance rating, and a 5-year limited warranty.

A second Optimus 5100 configuration is also in stock on Amazon India, the 500GB model (SDSP51500GAN-000E0), built on the same M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 board with sequential speeds of up to 6,600MB/s read and 5,600MB/s write, listed at Rs.11,809 against an MRP of Rs.47,600 (Amazon India↗).

Quick Links

What We Like About the SanDisk Optimus 5100 NVMe SSD 1TB (SDSP51100TAN-000E0)

7,100MB/s sequential read: close to the practical ceiling of the PCIe 4.0 x4 interface the drive runs on
1.3M IOPS random write: the highest random write figure in the Optimus 5100 range, matched only by the 2TB model
600 TBW endurance: double the rating of the 500GB model, with the warranty running 5 years or that limit, whichever comes first
3.9 W average read and write power: lower draw than the 2TB and 4TB models in the same range, which matters in a laptop M.2 slot
TCG Pyrite 2.01 with ATA Security passthrough: drive-level security support without a separate utility

Performance and Interface

The 1TB SDSP51100TAN-000E0 sits at the top of the Optimus 5100 range for read speed alongside the 2TB model. SanDisk rates it at 7,100MB/s sequential read and 6,700MB/s sequential write on 1MB transfers at queue depth 8 with a single thread.

Random performance is quoted at 1M IOPS on 4KB reads and 1.3M IOPS on 4KB writes, both measured at queue depth 32 across 16 threads. The 500GB model drops to 660K IOPS read and 1.1M IOPS write, so the 1TB capacity is the first step in the range where the drive hits its full random read figure.

The interface is PCIe 4.0 x4 with NVMe, and SanDisk lists backwards compatibility with PCIe 3.0 x4, x2 and x1 as well as PCIe 2.0 x4, x2 and x1. Slotting it into an older Gen3 machine will work, at Gen3 speeds.

NAND, Cache and Storage Design

Storage is 8th generation SanDisk QLC 3D CBA NAND. There is no onboard DRAM: the drive uses Host Memory Buffer, borrowing a slice of system RAM for the mapping tables instead of carrying its own DRAM chip.

The SLC write cache is SanDisk’s nCache 4.0. According to SanDisk, the technology is what handles application multitasking and large file copies on the drive.

Endurance, Reliability and Warranty

The 1TB model carries a 600 TBW endurance rating, calculated on the JEDEC client workload (JESD219). Across the range the figure scales with capacity: 300 TBW at 500GB, 600 TBW at 1TB, 900 TBW at 2TB and 1,200 TBW at 4TB.

MTTF is quoted at up to 1.75M hours for every capacity, based on SanDisk’s internal Telcordia SR-332 stress testing at 25°C. The 5-year limited warranty runs for five years or until the TBW limit is reached, whichever happens first.

Power Draw and Environmental Limits

Average power on the 1TB model is 3.9 W on reads and 3.9 W on writes, measured with IOMeter 1.1.0 over a 10 second moving average during burst operations. Idle (sleep) draw is 4 mW, the same as the 500GB and 2TB models, with the 4TB model rising to 4.5 mW.

Operating temperature runs 0°C to 85°C, with a non-operating range of -40°C to 85°C. Operating vibration tolerance is 5 gRMS over 10-2000 Hz on three axes, non-operating vibration is 4.9 gRMS over 7-800 Hz, and shock tolerance is 1,500G at 0.5 ms half-sine.

Security and Bundled Software

Security support covers TCG Pyrite 2.01 and ATA Security passthrough over NVMe.

Two software downloads are listed with the drive. The SanDisk Dashboard application, Windows only, handles performance monitoring and firmware updates. Acronis True Image for SanDisk is offered free for data migration onto the new SSD, and SanDisk notes a separate cable or enclosure may be required. The Acronis license runs five years and has to be redeemed within 90 days of purchase.

Form Factor and Compatibility

Every capacity in the range uses the same M.2 2280 board measuring 80mm x 22mm x 2.38mm and weighing 5.7g. SanDisk allows for a variance of ±0.15mm on length and width and ±1g on weight.

Compatibility is listed as Windows 10 or newer, a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface and an M.2 2280 port. The drive is RoHS compliant and carries BSMI, CAN ICES-3(B)/NMB-3(B), CB-Scheme, CE, FCC, KCC, Morocco, RCM, TÜV, UL, VCCI and UKCA certifications.

Other Optimus 5100 Model Numbers

Three of the four capacities have reached Amazon India.

What We Like About the ASUS PRIME-RX9060XT-O8G

2.5-slot, 304mm card with a 550W recommended PSU: the power requirement stays inside what a mid-range supply already delivers, and a single 8-pin connector feeds it
3330 MHz boost clock in OC mode: ASUS ships the card factory-clocked above its default mode rather than at reference speed
DisplayPort 2.1a and HDMI 2.1b outputs: both are the current output standards, and the card drives up to 3 displays
0dB fan mode: the fans stop entirely below 50°C, so the card runs passively at idle and low load
20 Gbps GDDR6 memory: paired with the 128-bit interface for the card’s memory bandwidth

GPU and Clock Speeds

Built on the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics processor, the PRIME-RX9060XT-O8G carries 2048 stream processors.

ASUS ships two clock profiles, switched through the GPU Tweak III utility:

Mode	Boost Clock	Game Clock
OC mode (GPU Tweak III)	Up to 3330 MHz	Up to 2760 MHz
Default mode	Up to 3310 MHz	Up to 2740 MHz

AMD defines Game Clock as the expected GPU clock in typical gaming applications at the card’s rated total graphics power, and Boost Clock as the maximum frequency reachable in a bursty workload. ASUS notes that boost clock achievability and sustainability vary with thermal conditions and with the application in use.

Memory

Specification	Details
Memory Size	8GB
Memory Type	GDDR6
Memory Interface	128-bit
Memory Speed	20 Gbps

Cooling System

The card uses a 2.5-slot cooler that ASUS sizes for small form factor builds.

ASUS states its MaxContact manufacturing process increases the surface area of the GPU heat spreader by 5%, and that this together with the heat sink and Axial-tech fan delivers a temperature improvement of up to 2°C. The company also states the Axial-tech fans use dual ball bearings and move up to 23% more air than standard fans.

A 0dB mode stops the fans when the GPU sits below 50°C, restarting them above 55°C.

The back plate carries a large venting slit, which ASUS describes as a breathable back plate design.

Display Outputs

Port	Quantity	Version
HDMI	1	Native HDMI 2.1b
DisplayPort	2	Native DisplayPort 2.1a

Maximum display support is 3 monitors.

Power and Physical Requirements

Specification	Details
Power Connector	1 x 8-pin
Recommended PSU	550W
Slot Width	2.5 slot
Dimensions	304 × 126 × 50 mm

ASUS bases the 550W recommendation on a fully overclocked GPU and CPU system configuration.

Software

ASUS GPU Tweak III and the graphics drivers are downloads from the ASUS support site rather than items shipped with the card. GPU Tweak III is also what switches the card between OC mode and default mode.

What We Like About the SanDisk 520 SATA SSD (SDSS51500GAB-000G0)

SATA III 6Gbps with backwards compatibility: works in SATA I and SATA II systems, which covers older desktops and laptops being upgraded from a mechanical drive
2.5-inch / 7mm cased design: the standard drive bay size, so it drops into most notebooks and desktop bays without an adapter
300 TBW endurance on the 500GB model with a 5-year limited warranty: the warranty runs to 5 years or the TBW limit, whichever comes first
No moving parts and a 1,500G shock rating: the drive has no mechanical assembly to fail on impact
Secure boot and secure firmware update support: both are handled at the SATA interface level

Interface, NAND and Cache

The 520 SATA SSD connects over SATA III at 6 Gbps, and SanDisk lists it as backwards compatible with SATA I and SATA II.

Storage is SanDisk TLC 3D NAND. There is no DRAM cache on this drive. An SLC cache is present across all four capacities.

Sequential and Random Performance

Read speed is quoted at up to 560MB/s on every capacity in the range. Write speed varies by model: the 500GB is rated at up to 510MB/s, the 1TB and 2TB at up to 520MB/s, and the 4TB at up to 525MB/s.

On random performance, the 500GB model is rated at up to 78K IOPS read and up to 73K IOPS write.

Capacity	Sequential Read	Sequential Write	Random Read	Random Write
500GB	560MB/s	510MB/s	78K IOPS	73K IOPS
1TB	560MB/s	520MB/s	89K IOPS	74K IOPS
2TB	560MB/s	520MB/s	89K IOPS	75K IOPS
4TB	560MB/s	525MB/s	85K IOPS	76K IOPS

SanDisk states these figures come from internal testing, and that performance varies with the host device, usage conditions and drive capacity.

Endurance and Reliability

Endurance is rated per capacity, so the figures scale with the size of the drive:

Capacity	Model Number	Endurance (TBW)
500GB	SDSS51500GAB	300 TBW
1TB	SDSS51100TAB	400 TBW
2TB	SDSS51200TAB	700 TBW
4TB	SDSS51400TAB	1,000 TBW

The Amazon India listing title quotes “Up to 1000TBW Endurance”, which is the figure for the 4TB model. The 500GB model listed here is rated at 300 TBW.

MTTF across the range is quoted at up to 2.25 million hours. SanDisk notes the TBW values are calculated using the JEDEC client workload (JESD219), and that the MTTF figure comes from internal Telcordia SR-332 stress testing on a sample population rather than a prediction for any individual drive.

Warranty is 5 years limited, or the maximum TBW endurance limit, whichever comes first.

Sony FE 100-400mm F5.6-8 OSS (SEL100400B.SYX) Full-Frame Super-Telephoto Zoom Lens Launched in India – 654g Body, Optical SteadyShot, 0.41x Magnification

What We Like About the Sony FE 100-400mm F5.6-8 OSS (SEL100400B.SYX)

654g weight: low for a 400mm full-frame telephoto zoom, which keeps handheld shooting practical without a monopod
Optical SteadyShot: in-lens stabilisation works alongside a camera body’s own system at the long end of the zoom
0.41x maximum magnification with a 0.86m minimum focus distance at 400mm: close enough for small-subject work without a dedicated macro lens
SEL14TC and SEL20TC teleconverter support: extends reach to 560mm and 800mm respectively
9-blade circular aperture: the blade count and circular design control the shape of out-of-focus highlights

Where the SEL100400B.SYX Sits in Sony’s Lens Lineup

There are no G or G Master markings on this lens, and neither designation appears in its model name. The SEL100400B.SYX belongs to Sony’s standard full-frame E-mount lineup, not the G Series or the G Master line, which are built to different optical and mechanical specifications. Performance should not be expected to match a G Series or G Master telephoto.

Sony’s own G Master telephoto at this focal range, the FE 100-400mm F4.5 GM OSS (SEL100400MC), is the separate, higher-specified option, with a constant F4.5 aperture and a 1,840g body against the 654g here.

Focal Range and Aperture

The zoom covers 100-400mm on a 35mm full-frame body. Mounted on an APS-C Sony body, the equivalent field of view works out to 150-600mm.

Maximum aperture is variable across the range, running from F5.6 at the wide end to F8 at 400mm. Stopped down, the lens reaches F32 at 100mm and F45 at 400mm. Angle of view is 24° to 6°10′ on full-frame, and 16° to 4°10′ on APS-C.

The aperture uses 9 blades in a circular design.

Optical Design and Focusing

Sony’s optical formula for the SEL100400B.SYX uses 15 elements arranged in 10 groups.

Minimum focus distance shifts across the zoom, from 1.13m at 100mm down to 0.86m at 400mm. Maximum magnification ratio is 0.41x, recorded at the long end.

Stabilisation is handled by Optical SteadyShot. Zooming is manual, not powered.

Teleconverter Compatibility

Two Sony teleconverters work with this lens:

SEL14TC (1.4x): takes the long end to 560mm
SEL20TC (2.0x): takes the long end to 800mm

Both attachments cost light. Starting from F8 at 400mm, the SEL14TC puts the effective maximum aperture at roughly F11 at 560mm, and the SEL20TC at roughly F16 at 800mm. That is before any of the optical cost of adding elements to the light path.

The teleconverters are supported, but this is not a fast lens to begin with, and the results at 560mm or 800mm should not be expected to match a G Master telephoto with the same teleconverter fitted.

What We Like About the Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 SE (910-007649)

60 g weight: among the lighter wireless shapes for extended play, with no weight-saving honeycomb shell
HERO 2 sensor at 100-44,000 DPI: Logitech states tracking runs with zero smoothing, acceleration or filtering across the range
LIGHTFORCE hybrid switches: optical actuation with a mechanical tactile click, rather than one or the other
88-hour battery over LIGHTSPEED: covers several weeks of typical use between USB-C charges
8 kHz report rate headroom: the PRO LIGHTSPEED receiver (sold separately) raises polling from 1 kHz to 8 kHz

HERO 2 Sensor and Tracking

Tracking is handled by Logitech’s HERO 2 sensor, with a resolution range of 100 to 44,000 DPI. Logitech states the sensor is calibrated without smoothing, acceleration or filtering applied to the input.

Maximum tracking speed is rated at more than 888 IPS and maximum acceleration at more than 88 G, both figures measured by Logitech on its own G640 gaming mouse pad.

LIGHTFORCE Switches and Buttons

The mouse carries 5 programmable buttons built on LIGHTFORCE hybrid optical-mechanical switches. According to Logitech, the design combines optical actuation with a tactile mechanical click, and the company positions it for low-latency input.

Onboard memory stores profiles on the mouse itself. Advanced configuration runs through Logitech G HUB, downloaded from logitechg.com/ghub.

LIGHTSPEED Wireless and Report Rate

Wireless connectivity uses LIGHTSPEED, running at a 1000 Hz (1 ms) wireless report rate out of the box. Wired USB data over USB-C runs at the same 1000 Hz.

Report rate can be raised to 8 kHz with the PRO LIGHTSPEED wireless receiver, which Logitech sells separately and does not include in this box. Processing is handled by a 32-bit ARM microprocessor.

Battery and Charging

Logitech rates the battery at 88 hours of constant motion, noting that figures vary with user and computing conditions. Charging is over USB-C, the same port used for wired data.

Design, Weight and Feet

The shell measures 125 mm long, 63.5 mm wide and 40 mm tall, at 60 g. Feet use an additive PTFE construction rather than separately applied PTFE skates.

On materials, Logitech states the Black unit uses a minimum of 70% post-consumer recycled plastic and the White unit a minimum of 62%. The company’s responsible packaging claim excludes cables, the receiver, the receiver extension adapter, the PWA and the packaging itself.
